Metin2 SG added vitality system, hairstyle updates...

Playing catchup recently, Metin2 SGMetin2 SG's staff have now introduced the Vitality system for their players to take advantage of. Working like on other servers, players can talk to a new Alchemist NPC in each town to smelt unwanted items (level 40 and above) for a chance at getting Vitality Ores. 30 of these ores can be crafted into a Vitality Stone. Vitality stones have varying power levels, the maximum being 10, and when used will fill a new energy bar located in the bottom left corner of the client. The stats on a player's items will be boosted by up to 10%, depending on the power level. Not much of a change if 10% chance to critical attack becomes 11%, though a little more noticeable when +2000 HP becomes +2200.

 

Metin2 SGMetin2 SG players will now also find the new costume button and extra costume inventory window available to them; the new home for costumes and hairstyles. This update also now lets players equip and unequip hairstyles as they please.


Metin2 SG is too late for the London 2012 Olympics and the accompanying Olympic updates that other servers had, though the olympic costumes are being recycled as generic costumes. At least, the football and boxing costumes - the fencing costumes haven't seen any mention. SG players cannot choose which costume they are buying either; instead players may purchase either a football or boxing costume box, which will randomly contain one of the many costumes of each type.

Metin2 SG's olympic costumes do feature stat bonuses however, with football costumes granting a 10% movement speed boost and boxing costumes giving 10% extra attack speed. If an "Olympic" costume is found in the box (in actuality, a UK style costume), the bonus is instead 20% movement speed or 15% attack speed for football and boxing respectively.

The Olympic hairstyles are also coming to the server, lasting 30 days and providing +750 HP. The staff are recognizing that they missed the appropriate time with these updates, and as such there will be a 20% discount on the new items for the next week.
