The main goal is to serve as an actual long term server with resets enabled.
All the monsters have been strengthened, all the items have been altered and so have the skills.
Beginner items are now actually valuable as the droplevel of all the items have been changed
in relation to the amount of items and monsters there are in The Lord of Mu.
As an example; Scale armor drops from monsters who used to drop Dragon armor,
but Scale armor is now as strong Dragon used to be.
Following that logic, Dragon is also a lot better.

This prevents people only wearing late game items. You won't be able kill the stronger monsters and thus wearing late game items without some amount of resets and improved early game items.

You can now buy Small Wings for 10 000 000 zen.

If you think that is too much, then you need to grow a pair of balls.
This server is hardcore, longterm and not for the faint of heart.

You have a mu helper for a reason, use it. Five years ago there was no autopicker and fighter. Or you had to use cheats.

There also was a lack of beginner items for puny players back then. We used to play the game, not ask for for items or easier gameplay.
I'm done answering every little request of players who can't handle real games, like they used to be. No matter how friendly you are, the moment you start a server, you immediately owe everyone everything.
If this sound a little harsh from some, or scares people away, I don't care. The reason I started this server was not to make it easy for noobs.
If there aren't any real Mu Online players anymore, who want a challenge, then this project has failed, and I have nothing to regret.

Stop being pussy.


Anyway, you can buy the wings at the following locations:




If you can't find these NPC's, then fuck you.


Boss monsters droprate is now 100%
But their health and attack is increased together with their spawn rate.
Other boss monsters will be mentioned here too.

Gorgon: spawn 30 minutes, droprate 50%

Death Beam Knight: spawn 120 minutes, droprate 100%


Phoenix of Darkness: spawn 240 minutes, droprate 100%

Back story:
After twelve years of Mu, coming back each year with hopes of finding a good server, I returned disappointed.
Barely any server shines light on exploring the environments and playing together in parties.
Isn't that the reason what makes an mmorpg worthwhile? Creating a fantasy and living it in company.

Still reminiscing about the first global version, when a heliacal sword + skill was invaluable,
I decided to give myself the challenge of starting my own server.
The focus being playing together, the market and to bring back the fantasy.

Do current players even know Mu is based on The Lord of the Rings? Years after playing Mu the first time,
The Lord of the Rings entered my top movie list.
To this day I haven't seen a movie that exceeds the sensation of adventure. The latter also increased my love for Mu.
It's the only mmorpg, next to Rose Online, that could make me feel like being on an adventure and that's the main drive behind my continuous returns.
Anyway, back to topic.

It would mean a lot if this server succeeds in giving the described feeling to players.
Hard to get items thrown by hard to beat monsters is the key to providing the above.
The economy will flourish due to the following reasons:

All items will have value because barely nothing is sold by NPC's.
Bless can indirectly be acquired trough NPC's so zen is necessary.
Donations don't buy advantages, merely aesthetic extravaganza's.

Joy in playing will be long term and surge:

As a kid, what good feeling remained the longest; the longing after or the receiving of a new toy.
"The chase is better than the catch."
Increased monster difficulty drastically impacts the need of a party. Surpassing an obstacle together is more rewarding than alone.
Being in a party increases the experience.

The above checklist will certainly be expanded. Feel free to enlighten me with idea's or remarks.
Have a premium time!

Increased the zen droprate from 2% to 5%.
Added the first beginner items to shops.
Added the first beginner weapons to shops.
Added potions as reward to the first quests.

Due to popular demand. It was too hard for starting players.

[Orginal00]

I will try this! loooks well worked.
How many ppl are online ?

[awesomo]

Just had my first player from Vietnam. So, not much yet.
But I was expecting that. It's real hard gameplay. Droprate like Mu Global 12 years ago. Quite challenging.

I also had a bug where people couldn't connect if someone connected with two accounts. But it looks like I fixed it.

[1234576]

i made an account, when i launch the client and click the server i get a "you are disconnected" error instantly

[awesomo]

Did you install the patch?
http://thelordofmu.hopto.org/index.p...e_id=downloads

[1234576]

cheers downloaded patch, ran launcher for updates and it works. long day at work :)

few things though, first i'd suggest having the full client be the latest one zipped up, making it easier for players to access the server is vital.

secondly, the original full client had "the lord of mu.exe" as the launcher, and the patch had a different exe as the launcher, if i copied the patch in and ran the original launcher file it would corrupt the client (deletes main.exe, etc). i re-extracted it, copied patch in and ran the new exe instead and it seems to work ok now.

Thanks for replying! I'll try and upload the client asap.

[Orginal00]

im trying to connect to my account and it say the account is blocked :/

[1234576]

the defence rate for the monsters is extremely high, low exp and droprate are fine but when we only hit the monsters 20% of the time it is a bit tiresome, i even built a dk with a major agi focus just to try getting some attack rate and it barely helped
edit - also i've probably killed over 300 monsters and seen two equipment drops, it really needs to be higher
- - - Updated - - -

original - check email for the verification email, you have to ok that first before you can login

[awesomo]

Yeah, you need to confirm the validation mail.

And 123, I'm working on balancing everything out, most of events, quests etc have not been enabled yet.
I've been working on it for 2 months now, first time I setup a server and everything that comes with it. Took much more time than anticipated.
Next week I've got an important firefighter exam so I have to take it down a notch.

But don't worry, I'm listening to all suggestions. This morning there were no items in shop whatsoever, also changed that due to feedback.
I still want to keep this server hardcore though. That's why I started this project, cause I believe hardcore is the most satisfying gameplay.

Compared to Diablo 3 hardcore or Day Z, where you lose your character when you die, this is peanuts. Nonetheless, I'm reasonable and always listening.

Thank you!

[awesomo]

I added working download links to my first post.
Forgot to include the encryption key to the download link on the website. So downloading from that link is not possible. Sorry if it caused any inconvenience.
It will be updated as soon as I get home.

[awesomo]

We've doubled the experience and drop rate.
15 xp to 30 xp and 1% to 2% respectively.

Don't be fooled by percentages. 1% = 1/100 & 2% = 1/50. So this increase is very significant!
This decision has been made because of the increased monster health and strength. The rates were increased too low in comparison with the latter changes.

[1234576]

have monster defence rates been changed yet? 80% miss rate is still the real problem

[awesomo]

have monster defence rates been changed yet? 80% miss rate is still the real problem

What level were you and which monsters did you fight?

I now tested dk and mage again at lvl 15 and 10, and it's only the first few levels I have miss.
