• Focus! The "Today's Contents" section of the Traveler's Diary now displays the proper Prelims Jousting times.
  
• Unbreakable Defense! The Cheer Squad has set their alarms and will now properly show up at the updated match times.
• In an effort to improve the flavor of Mabinogi's early-game experience, we have revised the descriptions for a number of early-game weapons commonly available in NPC shops.

• Polished the descriptions of the myriad Shadow Crystals to make the effect more clear.

  • Elves and Giants can now get married in Emain Macha!
  • Dan Advancement tests have been balanced so that you can achieve your Dan ranks more comfortably.
  • And more!

The following changes have been made to the game:

• Updated the Word Filter to allow “Swap”, “C8”, and “Lesbian”.
• You can now use Rage Impact with the following Two-Handed Clubs:
  • Sheep Mace 
  • Lovey Dovey Cotton Candy 
  • Merchants' Guild Abacus 
  • Seashell Plushie 
  • Beluga Whale Plushie 
  • Dumbo Octopus Plushie 
  • Black Rose Bouquet 
  • Black Rose Clutch 
  • Glass Trim Bouquet 
  • Sacred Glow Censer 
  • Sacred Glow Holy Water 
  • Fairy Bubble Blower 
  • Seraphic Cantabile Holy Censer
• In order to better tell them apart, we have renamed the 24-Hour cooldown “Forgetful Potion” to “Special Forgetful Potion”. The 7-Day cooldown version will remain the same. 
  • The descriptions for both have been updated to make the effects more clear. 
• Renamed “Sephirot Arrow” to “Sephirot Bolt”, as these can only be fired via Crossbow. 
• The buff effect for Baltane Mission Crystals has been changed from "Shadow Crystal" to "Baltane Crystal", in order to make them more distinct from Shadow Crystals.
• (As of the August 10th Maintenance) It has been changed so that when you use a Weapon Appearance Scroll, the color of the item will now follow the color codes of the item the Weapon Appearance Scroll was based on. Before, the color was assigned randomly.
  • This change applies only to the appearance scrolls obtained after the August 10th update patch.

The following bug fixes have been made to the game:

• The Gather Stackable Items buttons will no longer restack and highlight stacks that are already at maximum. This improves the performance of this button.
• Improved the Pet Dye UI to fit RGB values properly.
• Continued our constant pursuit of polish by fixing up typos in G3, G24, and G25.
• Joust in time, we've performed a polish pass on the Jousting-related text!
• Do you hear bells? We've also improved the Marriage-related text!
• Fixed the text on Zone of Renewal to correct the ability cost from Phantasmal Amalgam to Phantasmal Remnant. The actual cost is unchanged.
• Fixed an issue where Intact Shyllien (Part-Time Job only) and Energy Converter (Part-Time Job only) placed in pet inventories could not be retrieved.
• The ability Mirage Missile was not properly granting stats from ranking the skill up. For those whose Mirage Missile was already ranked up, you will receive the missing stats automatically following a Rebirth.
• Floating heads no more- Fixed an issue where NPC-style Transformations would lack a body when transforming with a full body Robe equipped in your Gear slot.
• Corrected a few graphical issues on the Rookie Barista Uniform (M).
• (Fixed during the August 17th Maintenance) Commerce rejoice and wyverns beware - Fixed an issue with Poison Potions that would prevent players from crafting Poison Tip Wyvern Ballista Bolts.

• Heavy Strike! Fixed an issue where the number of players able to join the Jousting Tournaments was incorrect. Up to 16 players may join the Preliminary matches, and up to 64 players may join the Finals.
