MU Online Season 7 Guide

Season 7 is the eX700 line, and its eX701 patch is the one players remember: four craftable monster wings at level 290, ten level 400 socket weapons built from Raklion drops, a rebuilt Arca War registration system with a live battlefield UI, and a game-wide interface pass that put the equipment window inside the inventory and added a dedicated Pentagram slot.

Monster wings

Monster wings are made, not found. You farm a material from a specific monster family, combine it with a 2nd level wing, and get a wing that carries one of the powerful options normally found on 2nd and 3rd level wings. All four require level 290.

Every value on them scales with the wing's own upgrade level, using the same four formulas on all four wings:

Wing options

A monster wing can carry up to three kinds of option.

Making monster wings

Combination happens at the Chaos Goblin NPC in Noria, under Normal combination. The Lucky Charm may be used. If the combination fails, every material in the window is destroyed.

Monster spawn changes

Because the Death King now guards a wing material, it was moved out of Lorencia entirely. Its drop table was changed and its stats were raised considerably. Several other spawns were moved and, in two cases, doubled.

Level 400 socket weapons

These ten weapons are wearable from the 3rd class change and cannot be obtained by hunting — every one of them has to be crafted.

The lore ties most of them to the Wind Evil-Spirit King — the Sonic Blade, Cyclone Sword and Thunder Bolt are all described as his weapons. The Angelic Bow is forged from the gathered strength of archangels who resisted Kundun, and the Devil Cross Crossbow from the ones who gave in to him; Asura is born from the clash between Lugard and Sechnum in the 1st Demon War and is said to hold both holy light and evil energy at once.

Crafting the socket weapons

Both the combination notes and the materials drop from every monster on the Raklion map. The note tells you which materials the weapon needs; combination is done at the Chaos Goblin NPC in Noria under Normal combination, the Lucky Charm may be used, and a failure destroys everything in the window.

The note and its materials are only half the recipe — you also have to feed in a real socket item.

A +7 / +4-option socket item with empty sockets is also accepted, so you do not have to sacrifice a filled one.

Arca War — the new registration system

Guilds no longer sign up for the Arca War directly. Instead they register Signs of Lord with the registration NPC, Sir Lesnar, and that registration is the application.

The same NPC shows the registration standings. The list is per server and displays the top 6 guilds (maximum 10 rows) with guild name and registered count, and your own guild's detail at the bottom. A guild ranked outside the top 100 is simply shown as "100".

When the war starts, only those six guilds are given the right to register the Arca War Guild Master and guild members. A guild that fails to register its Guild Master inside the registration window cannot take part, even if it qualified.

Arca War — the live battlefield UI

A progress panel was added so you can read the state of the war while it is running. It shows only to guild members who registered for the war and who are on the Acheron map, and it can be folded away with a Hide / Show button. The war's start message goes to every registered member; the running progress messages go only to members who registered to participate.

The three obelisk states map onto the capture sequence: Unoccupied is the starting state with no owner, Capturing means someone is standing on the seals trying to take it, and Occupied means all seals were stepped on, the obelisk was destroyed and the tower is fully taken. Both of the latter two are coloured by owner — blue for your own guild, red for anyone else.

Game UI — character window and inventory

The character information window was rolled back to the classic layout, with two changes worth knowing. The Level line now prints the combined total of normal level and master level, so a character at master level 200 reads 600 rather than 400. And the character name sits at the top of the window, coloured by the character's karma / PK state.

The Dark Lord's Command stat is printed at the very bottom of the stat block.

The worn-equipment window moved inside the inventory window, the equipment slots were rearranged, and a dedicated Pentagram slot was added beside them. The extended inventory is unchanged.

Game UI — Zen colours, trading and chat

Zen amounts in a Personal Store are colour-coded by size, and the top two bands were shifted: the ten-million band moved from red to orange, and red was freed up for the new hundred-million band.

The trade window lost its Confirm button. Both sides now press Trade, and a yellow Waiting for trade approval box appears in both windows until approval completes. The safety catch is the important part: if any item in the window changes while you are in that state, approval reverts and both sides have to press Trade again. Zen trades work the same way.

Chat colours were softened. Normal conversation text is a lighter shade than before, and whispers changed to light pink, which makes them much easier to pick out of a busy Lorencia chat window.
