Union Party System Unlocks Hidden Silkroad Online Power Posted: 15 Jan 2013 03:47 PM PST           Joymax today unveils an upcoming update of the “Union Party System” for Silkroad Online! Silkroad Online is preparing for this month’s upcoming patch, “Ignite Silkroad Part 3: Undead’s Revenge”, with the introduction of the terrifying addition, “Death Bone.” Born from the ashes of the Roc, this gigantic undead beast is the most powerful unique monster yet. The only means to defeat it is by combining forces with the use of the Union Party System.     The main feature of the Union Party System allows four separate parties to combine, creating a giant raid of 32 players. Creating a group this large requires a Union Ticket and the owner of the Union Ticket automatically becomes the leader of the group. The leader has the ability to control a variety of party settings such as loot distribution. With the improved party system from this month’s update, players can choose new types of distribution;including skill EXP, randomizing items, and ordered item distribution.         Players who enter into a union party will receive a special bonus EXP buff as high as 25% for a full union of four groups. Only these massive groups will be able to take on the newest challenge: Death Bone! Death Bone is the most challenging boss yet requiring a full Union Party at maximum level; the “Roc Time Attack!” may even feel easy in comparison.     The massive skeleton monster, Death Bone, is designed with powerful skills to draw players in then launch a near-death attack for the unfortunate few who do not flee in the short five second window of opportunity. Players, who have both defeated the Roc and completed a challenging quest chain, can summon this evil terror and find the reward well worth the effort, as Death Bone not only rewards the best EXP gains but also the highest gold reward — the 13th tier equipment and much more.

Broken Realm Posted: 15 Jan 2013 02:56 PM PST Broken Realm: A Crystal Saga Chronicle is a medieval-fantasy MMORPG released by [R2Games]. Broken Realm is the highly anticipated follow-up to R2Games' Crystal Saga: Origins which was released last year. Broken Realm uses optimized 2.5D realistic graphics to visually pull players into a vast virtual world recently torn apart by strife after the death of the much-loved Queen Hitomi. Players, at first blinded by loyalty to the new King Rycroft, fight their way up the ranks of the king's army only to learn that the new king isn't all that he seems to be. Starving peasants, escaped enemies and awakened demons have plagued the land ever since Rycroft has taken the throne. Is the king stopping such things, or causing them?

Overview Broken Realm Overview   The World of Broken Realm The reign of King Valcroy, after the defeat of the Undead and the evil Ice Queen, was a golden age of peace and prosperity. For many generations, Vidalia was the center of trade, commerce and protection from the outlying lands beyond the influence of the Vidalian Monarchy.   That was until the warrior queen, Hitomi VII, was assassinated without a direct heir to the throne. Nephews, cousins, uncles, all laid claim to the throne and the unity of the kingdom was quickly torn asunder. Queen Hitomi's nephew, Prince Rycroft, a ruthless and power-hungry man, but a man with the strongest claim to the throne, was able to take control of the capital city of Everglade and proclaimed himself King of all Vidalia. While the city itself is mostly stable, constant threats from rival claimants and enemy outlying lands has led to constant battle and a need for a steady stream of warriors ready to support the claims of King Rycroft and bring stability back to the realm.   Classes Paladin With a strong blade and the ability to protect allies, the paladin class is the epitome of strength and honor.
