Hello Mabinogians!

Last month we informed you that Mabinogi would be revamping its enhanced game services. After extensive review, we’re proud to announce our new “Premium Service” that combines the best aspects of all our services in one easy-to-use set of game enhancements. What do you need to make your Fantasy Life complete? Check out the awesome game enhancements available with the one and 30-day Mabinogi Premium Service:

• Free Stuff: Receive exclusive enchanted and rare items from Nao every week on your character’s birthday!
• Extra Storage: Extra inventory space to carry all your cool gear.
• Bank Inventory: Extra bank space plus the ability to share items between characters
• Guild Support: Create and manage your guild and explore Erinn with friends.
• Personal Shops: Buy and sell items with your own personal storefront.
• Housing: Own your very own piece of Erinn that you can use as a storefront to sell items.
• Exclusive gestures and Emotes
• No Camping Penalty: The Premium Package removes the “camping” penalty for hunting in the same area for too long.
• No Town Rebirth Penalty: Premium Package players no longer use experience points when reviving in a town.
• 10% Combat Experience Increase: As befits your special status, you’ll receive a 10% bonus to earned experience points for hunting monsters.

FAQ

Q: Why are you changing the Premium Services?
A: We discovered that having four different services for players was very confusing. People would want services from different packages and were never sure which package best suited their needs. Combining the most used and popular services into one package makes it easier to use – and cheaper too!

Q: How long does the Premium Service last?
A: Players can purchase the Premium Service in increments of one or 30 days.

Q: How much does the Premium Service cost?
A: The one-day Premium Service costs 1,800 NX . The 30-day Premium Service costs 10,900 NX.

Q: Can I still purchase the old packages?
A: No. After February 8 , 2010 the Mabinogi Premium Service is the only enhanced game service that will be available for purchase.

Q: I still have time to run on my old service. Do I lose that money?
A: Absolutely not. Any time you have remaining on your old service will be refunded. If you have any issue with this, please contact Nexon Support.

Q: I’m worried about my guild during the transition to the new service. Am I going to lose any information?
A: Absolutely not. Every Mabinogi Player will receive three days of FREE Mabinogi Premium Service once it becomes available. This will give everyone plenty of time to transfer over to the new service.

Q: Will I continue to receive the same free items I used to get under Nao’s Support Service or the Advanced Play Service?
A: No. Certain items that used to be free under those services are not part of the Premium Service. Those items are now purchasable in the Cash Shop, along with several new items! The items updated are:
• Nao Soul Stones
• B+ Bombs (formerly escape bombs)
• Skill Untrain Capsule
• Metal Dye Potion
• Dungeon Waxen Wing
• Remote Weapon, Tailor, Blacksmith, Town Hall, and Alchemist Coupons
Additionally, time expiration will be removed from all cash shop items, allowing you to enjoy your purchased items at your convenience.

We hope you enjoy the new Premium Service

Why do they say this twice ._.

Skill untrain in cash shop??? <3 you now nexon! Nao soul stone stuff? Finally >_> and 3 free days..a day for each of my characters to train away..

[chiri]

Skill untrain will probably end up costing more than a day of service .-.
Do feel like we're getting gipped.

I was hoping items bags would be coming out, but there's no mention of them~

I have hard time detecting if you're being sarcastic :/
Anyway knowing nexon I was sure it would cost more than that honestly. I'll probably end up buying it. Never used Nao "seriously" before so the nao soul stone doesn't bother me (time to spam more part time job though).
Edit: No bag? Aww...well we're not 100% sure we won't get them but I really hoped to get those awesome bag.

[Cide]

noooo ;____;

[Sarasari]

I can't help but wonder what this does to the supply of mana elixirs outside of the free item shop item dealie.

Uh oh.

[Intex]

Oh and, what's going to happen to dye prices.

I'm still wondering about this:

I'm trying to figure out if this means...

• There's no Adv. Play at all despite it actually being in the KR system (schedule)
• Or if that just means they're adding those other things to the item shop and changing over to the KR Adv. Play (hence "Certain items that used to be free...")
• Or if they're going who-knows-what with their "Free Item" item shop thing.

Guess we'll have to wait and see.
