AOP contributors, regular users, or just visitors,

The last patch has introduced many changes, and monsters -stats, loots, locations- has been modified too.

That's why AOP needs volunteers to perform a complete and rigorous checking.

How does it work?
There are 777 monsters to verify, I guess only a small part of them need to be updated (maybe 10%?).
Each volunteer will check all monsters whose name starts with the letter of his/her choice. Some letters are quite empty and other very filled, choose in accordance with your free time/motivation. It should take 30-60min.
Just post here what letter you take, for example I take the A. The list will be updated below.
If you finish a letter and want to work on another one, you can. You can ch

But the idea is More volunteers => less work for each of you.
There is no delay, it's a long term work. But if you withdraw, please tell us.

  • A +75% monster info is required.
  • Each volunteer will have access to Monster Editor to do the need modification.
  • If some extra additions are required (add a new magic skill or else), just ask.
  • If you see missing monsters, it's the opportunity to add them too.
  • If you're not familiar with AOP, please read the Staff Handbook first.
  • If you have any problem, just ask (here, private message, staff chat...).

Thanks to anyone who will help!

Automated updates

I automated a lot of updates using SQL queries (for monster loots as well as boxes, crafts...).
It mainly concerns items that disapeared and have been replaced (some mineral and medicine items), and should save us a lot of time (plus potential errors).

D mobs updated

D mobs are updated. Let me know if you prefer me edit or post new.
Added more locations, added magic skill for some bosses, not much changes on loots.
No one else offer to help? :(
I think, maybe wait a week or two before updating would be good coz lots new mob infos? Like today I have just received some B and C mobs infos from Gonzu World, only basic not complete yet.

4 staff members are adding the new mobs (as you can read it in the Staff chat). It should be quite "fast" to add them, and their info don't need to be updated :)
I don't know if they'll participate in verifications after that (I hope).

Great, it will save time for people who will verify monsters by letters.
By the way, I received the pictures, but didn't update them yet.

Checking all monsters may be

Checking all monsters may be excessive, the modified monsters are listed in the update log :

- Monsters that drop Giant/Redemption Crystals now drop lesser amounts.
- Level 76+ monsters that dropped Ashen Crystals/Jewels have been changed to other drops.
- Level 75-84 monster that dropped Topaz has been changed to other drops.
- Hanging Gardens of Babylon’s Shadow region monsters’ critical rate and attack power have been slightly increased.
- [White Tiger], [Desert Fox], [Wild Horse], [Wasteland Desperado], [Female Alpaca], [White Striped Tapir], [Fierce Saber-Tooth Tiger], and [Brutal Saber-Tooth Tiger]’s magic attribute has been changed and difficulty has been increased.

That's the only thing to check normally.

I will take "A" mobs

Yea, after doing full D mobs, I agree it is a bit time consuming. However, in a way may be good just to recheck and coz previous patch, it added in location for mobs in boss rooms as well.

When I went through the mobs, I found quite a few mobs with location to be added in. Also slight changes with drop rate, I don't know if it was mistake of the person added in or ndoors changed the drop rate. As an example, Disguised Tlaltechutli has Tears of Teteoinan drop rate of Low now, when I went thru the list, it was Medium. It's not crucial, just depends how perfect you want the info to be I suppose :))

I'll take "A" mobs to check too then.

Why a full checking

Of course, I agree devill. A few motivated persons like him would be enough to do all the job in one week.

Moreover, the main "problem" with this update is that -for the first time- they deleted and replaced some items. That implies changes on crafts and loots.
In precious patches, they also "redesigned" some dungeons - what implies changes on locations.
After 5-6 months on AOP, and a few patches to handle, I can say for sure that the patchnotes are never complete, even if Ndoors made (really) an huge progress.

I'm checking slower on "A", just posting to let you know Ancient Anubis has a different pic now.

I deleted the obsolete Ancient Anubis picture, so this monster appears in our "missing pictures" listing. They will be updated as soon as a contributor send the screenshots to me.

Tail Whip magic skill added.

Regarding Fossil Palace, is it in the game info? If it isn't in the "official" field info, you can specify this location in the comment.

About monster pictures

Thanks for your work!

I updated the field names (in Golden Dragon).

Regarding missing monster pictures (41 at the moment), a list is available from the Staff Panel (here). It's better to send a bunch of them at the same time (it saves time both for you and me).
Moreover, would it be possible to send pictures without flowers on the screen? It may be pretty, but I'd rather to upload "raw" images :)

I updated Monsters with

I updated Monsters with letter "H" as far as i had the infos. But 2 Problems occured.
For Humbaba i couldn't set the magic skill. "Boomerang of Time" was not available from the Skill List.
The Attack Power for Heart of Eternity couldn't be set to 35692-45438. It's always cut to 32767. Maybe datatype problem in database.

The following monsters are still missing:
- Head Miner
- Haunted Archbishop
- Hahoe Mask
- Hallucinating Nurse
- Heavy Infantry
- Hidden Magician
- Horned Python

Hopefully another one can update them soon.

Some Attack Powers to check

Sincerely sorry about the 32767 problem. When I made the database schema, monsters were very very far from these values.
I corrected all the elements you reported (including magic skills), but there are a few attack powers to check (values of 32767). Here is the list (with direct link to Monster Editor):

Greak work Captain Hook!

Artisan's Material Box Items Update

I opened Artisan's Material Box for 200 times, and realize one error in your listing, I got "Crystal" most of the times and it varies from 11 to 29. I don't know where to put, so just post here. I would like to help for Monster's info, but mine is only 15%. Is it possible to help?

Monster info required

Hello,

Unfortunately, with 15% we could verify only 1/5 of the monsters if you were assigned to one letter, that's why the requirement is at least 75% (other contributors are on ~80%).

Regarding box content, I put quantites that players (like you) reported me, so there are plenty of incomplete data -or "errors" if you want- regarding lowest-highest values. By the way, this topic: http://aop.muwing.com/forum/80-box-contents is more adapted :)

J-K-L

Great work with the J-K-L!

I didn't add Snowstorm's Resting Place as it isn't in GameInfo (no map etc).

Usually contributors use the Staff Chat to ask for changes (missing skills etc) or report what they did. You can do the same or posting here, as you want.

I have reviewed the information, I have not yet updated the database, but I do not have full info on the following:

Yellow Thorned Lizard
Young Alpaca

There are 5 others that need changes. Everything has been updated except the above.

SIKYON: Missing Infos

I can grab Yellow Thorned Lizard & Young Alpaca when the server comes back online.

In the mean time, at least for SIKYON (82.4% at the time of this post) we're missing the following monster infos:-

Mixed
Imperial Witch - I
Fallen Seraph - L/I
Al Capone - I

Goonzu
Evil King J - L/I
Dr. Gon - B/L/I
Giant Mushroom - B/L/I

Ghost Town
Ghost Commander - B/L/I
Lion Mask - B/L/I
Nether Prince - B/L/I
Nether King - B/L/I
Nether King's True Form - B/L/I
(Above 2 are unconfirmed names. Kill the 1st form and he transforms to a 2nd form.)

Bulgaska
Guardian of the West - L/I
Guardian of the East - L/I
Guardian of the North - B/L/I
Guardian of the South - B/L/I
Toad King - B/L/I

Lijang Women's Village
Giant Beast of Madness - I

Key
I = Item Info
L = Location Info
B = Basic Info.

I'll also add "Thorn Beast" into the database once the server is back online. That was our latest one to be collected and is from Lijang Women's Village.

And yes Anubis of Death, Ghastly Anubis, Anubis of Souls, Sage Anubis, Golden Anubis, and Executioner, all look different, but they mostly have the same body type as Forgotten Anubis, Anubis picture you have.
