Foreign Content for Japan and China?

• Froglord of DESTINY!!! wrote on 2014-04-07 10:13
  Lately a lot of the content announcements from across the sea have been from Kr.
  
  My question is, what are Japan and China up to content-wise?
  
  Usually we get some pretty nice content from Japan (robot waifus), and like 1% whatever china poops up, but it's all still interesting to read once in a while.
  
  So what are they up to? :llama_excited:

  Japan has Perfume Making, which is a DoT potion basically.

  The main problem is JP has an IP block which makes it extremely difficult to find out what they are up to. CN and TW are also owned by completely different companies.

  [S]Go make Kenero track JP mabi official 24/7![/S]
  Although we're IP banned from game itself, JP mabi official site isn't restricting any foreign ip. So it's not hard for us to track their updates.(again, Kenero for translation!)
  
  Crossover/Tie-Up is prolly the only thing that's worth from JP mabi, [S]but 99% of which won't be seen here on NA[/S]
  Kenero is prolly going to make a thread when theres something unique from JP mabi.

  Ya so far since SAO I haven't seen or heard of anything new or different in JP that KR hasn't already had. So far SAO is JP only so don't expect NA to get that anytime in the near future. Had one person talking to me yesterday that kept acting like we were going to get it.

  I'd have to go back to TW mabi and see what they're up to, but so far they've been having a bunch of awesome events as far as I know. In fact, we actually got a few content updates earlier than they did.

  Due to the nature of this topic, I went ahead and moved this to the "Foreign Mabinogi Content" section which is supposed to contain any and all discussion of foreign server content (not just korean for which the kr test crew studies). Just a reminder that this section is for discussion and sharing opinions just as much as it is for information and questions, so long as it's foreign content not currently released in NA/Announced for NA.

  Slightly off-topic, but what did they say about SAO?

  They were just wondering when we were getting the wings that came with the SAO stuff. They also was wondering about the Blacksmith Training pot that supposedly came with it although I'm not sure on that part.

  I'm pretty sure Sabina (best source ever) said on the nexon forums a week or so ago that there was no way we could get SAO stuff. I think someone had posted asking for it as a reward for the voting polls that were going on and she replied saying "that would be impossible"

  Which is pretty much what I was trying to tell the guy who asked me the other day. In other words, there's absolutely nothing worth looking at in terms of JP and CN atm that isn't already in KR which is why the lack of JP and CN info.

  Yes, the Blacksmith Training Potion is real and it came from the SAO event, according to Solar/Soluna. The first event it came from was that avon-treasure chest-mission event. However, the NA rewards did not include that as a possible reward, thankfully.
