New Riding and Merc System
In 2022, Metin2 is starting with some new and marvellous content and improvements. Get ready for the expanded riding system with new horse skills and your own mercs that you can even send on operations while you’re offline!
Expanded Riding System
This update will make your mount even more useful! Summon a new Mighty War Horse with the Golden Horse Book. Use the horse skill books to have your mount learn powerful skills such as Swift Hooves, Raging Storm, Feather Walk, and Immortal. All that effort deserves a reward – feed your horse and you’ll boost its strength for your next battle together!
A New Horse
But how do you get your new horse? It’s simple! Once your horse reaches level 31, you’ll gain access to a quest that will let you prove yourself worthy of your new four-hooved companion. To pass the test you’ll have to defeat 100 monsters in the Gnoll Caves in 30 minutes! If you’re successful, you’ll get a Golden Horse Book.
Go to the Stable Boy right now and get a new daily quest that will let you earn fodder for your horse. Use the fodder to increase your horse’s level above level 20. Characters above level 75 can use this method to raise their horse’s level up to 30, and characters who have already reached Champion Level can raise their horse’s level up to 40. The handy bonuses your horse provides while mounted will become more potent up to level 30. And that’s not all! From level 31 to level 40 it will even boost your Sung Ma’s Will, and this bonus also increases with the horse’s level.
There are also several details to bear in mind when taking care of your new friend. For one thing, this horse only eats Red Ginseng (Premium), special food that can be found in Yohara. If something bad happens to your horse on your adventures, you’ll need Revigrass to revive it. You can find that on monsters in the Gnoll Caves.
New Horse Skills
Your new horse isn’t just good for getting from A to B! It’s also got powerful horse skills that will give you fantastic bonuses while you ride. Once your horse reaches level 21, you can have it learn 1 of the 18 new skills and be of even more use to you. The horse skill books needed to learn horse skills are found on bosses in Northwind Shelter, on your merc operations, and in many other places.
You can improve these new horse skills up to level 20. If you decide you don’t like a skill you’ve chosen for your horse, you can easily have your horse unlearn it. If your horse is at or below level 30, your horse can use 1 horse skill at a time, but from level 31 onwards it can use 2 at a time.
The Merc System
With the new Merc Licence, you can recruit mercs to provide services for you. Send them off to do missions for you while you’re offline! If your mercs are successful, they’ll bring back rewards from their operations.
The new system is simple. Talk to the Yohara Commander once you’ve reached Champion Level. He will give you a quest to complete before you can use the new merc system. Afterwards, press ‘U’ or select the merc system via the menu to access it.
Command Your Mercs
Use the Merc Licence to get a random merc. You can find these licences on the bosses stomping around Yohara, in treasure from the Serpent Temple, or in the Northwind Shelter, plus many other places. You can have a total of 24 mercs under your command to begin with, but upgrading will let you increase that limit up to 48.
Each of your mercs have their own levels, 30 being the maximum. The stronger your mercs are, the better their bonuses will be. Mercs gain experience by being trained by other mercs that you don’t need any more. After doing this one-off job for you, your merc trainers will leave your service to enjoy an early retirement. There are even special mercs that can’t ever be sent out on operations and are just there to train other mercs for you.
But beware: mercs can get hurt when you send them out on missions! An injured merc can’t be sent out on any more operations until they’re healed. They also won’t be able to train any other mercs. Use a Merc Medicine Coupon to heal a wounded merc so they’re ready to go out on your missions again.
If you have a merc whose services you don’t need any more, you can release them from your service.
Each Merc Is Unique
Each merc has their own name, special skills, and attributes. Names and skills will be chosen randomly when you recruit your mercs. Your mercs’ skills are useful passive bonuses, such as reduced chance of injury, or reduced operation duration.
Each time a merc reaches level 10, 20, or 30, there is a chance they will also learn a useful attribute. If they’ve already got an attribute, then this has a chance to be improved instead. Here are the possible attributes:
If your merc’s name matches their attribute, then they’ll get double the attribute bonus! Names and what they match with:
Operations
Send your mercs out on operation to find some amazing rewards! Each operation will take into account the accumulated bonuses of the mercs you send out on it, so the more mercs you send out, the more likely it is to succeed.
Operations take place in special areas and sometime have specific operation types. If you don’t like the operations available to you, you can replace them with random ones once per day. Your Champion Level determines which operations you have access to. As your Champion Level increases, you’ll unlock more and better operations.
You need endurance before you can send your mercs out on operations. As your Champion Level increases, so too will your maximum endurance. If you run out of endurance, you can restore it at any time. Simply complete the repeatable quest from your quest log by defeating monsters in Yohara.
Once your soldiers complete an operation, you’ll be able to see the results, and collect your rewards if it was a success. You can also cancel an operation at any time. The mercs you have sent out on the operation you want to cancel will return to you immediately and unscathed. However, you won’t get any rewards from operations you cancel.
Have fun exploring the new systems!
