Community and Support Getting Help This page explains where players should go when they need help with setup, account issues, or general questions. Main Support Path Discord should be the primary place for support unless OceaniaRO later adds a dedicated ticket or helpdesk flow. When To Ask For Help You cannot install or patch the client correctly. You cannot register or log in. You are confused about progression or server systems. You hit a bug, error, or unusual behaviour in-game. How To Ask Well Explain the issue clearly. Include screenshots if there is an error on screen. Say what you already tried. Include enough detail that someone can reproduce the problem. Support Boundaries Do not share your password with anyone. Do not post private account information publicly if it can be avoided. Use the right support channel so issues do not get lost in general chat. Future Expansion This book should later include pages for account recovery, bug reports, server rules, and community guidance. Rules Summary This page provides a simple overview of expected behaviour within OceaniaRO. It should work as a quick reference, while a full rules document can live on the main site or in a dedicated page later. General Conduct Treat other players with basic respect. Do not harass, threaten, or deliberately disrupt the community. Use public channels responsibly. Fair Play Do not bot, macro, cheat, or use unauthorised tools. Do not exploit bugs or systems for unfair advantage. If you discover a serious issue, report it instead of abusing it. Account Responsibility You are responsible for your own account security. Do not share your password. Do not assume staff can always recover losses caused by account sharing. Trading and Economy Follow any server rules around scams, trades, and real-money trading. If a trade system or market rule exists, make sure you understand it before using it. Enforcement Staff may warn, mute, suspend, or ban players depending on the severity of the issue. Repeated or deliberate misconduct should be treated more seriously than honest mistakes. Note This is a starter rules summary. It should be replaced or expanded with the final OceaniaRO ruleset once that is locked in. Bug Reports This page explains how to report bugs in a way that is actually useful to staff and easier to investigate. What Counts as a Bug Broken NPCs or quests Skills or items not behaving as expected Map issues or blocked progression UI, launcher, patcher, or login problems Anything clearly inconsistent, broken, or exploitable What To Include In A Report What happened What you expected to happen Where it happened When it happened Screenshots or short clips if possible Steps to reproduce the issue if you can repeat it How To Report Well Keep the report clear and specific. Report one issue at a time where possible. Avoid vague messages like “it broke” without context. Important Warning If you find an exploit or something that can be abused, do not spread it around or keep using it. Report it privately through the proper support path. Suggested Format Issue: Short title Location: Where it happened Steps: What you did Result: What went wrong Evidence: Screenshot or video Next Step As support processes mature, this page can be linked to a proper Discord ticket flow or bug-reporting template.

This page tracks notable recent OceaniaRO launch updates, fixes, and balance passes so players can see what has already been changed. 2026-07-04 - Launch Balance & Clarity Pass 100+ Eden mission boards: reward tuning was increased for early launch testing. Base EXP and Job EXP now scale higher than before, with Job EXP pushed slightly further to smooth class progression. World Tour Ticket loop: 100+ board completions now have a chance to award World Tour Tickets, giving higher-level missions a small economy reward instead of being pure EXP. Custom item previews: Curio Crafter, Ossian the Wreckwright, and Sable the Wingwright now show clickable item previews before players commit materials. Currency guide: Tide Concierge now explains Coral Reef, World Tour Tickets, Cash Points, and how those currencies fit into crafting, voting, playtime, and supporter systems. Cash shop polish: early +5 and +6 weapon/armor refine tickets were added to the cash shop. Higher refine support remains focused through the custom refiner and World Tour Ticket route. 2026-06-30 - Poring Haven & QoL Poring Haven moved to the old novice grounds, new_1-1, and now includes classic Porings, Drops, Poporings, and Marins alongside custom variants. Poring Haven Guide was added at new_1-1 (66,115) for healing and warping back to Malangdo. Persistent QoL settings were added through the Settings Assistant, allowing players to save autoloot and show-exp preferences across logins. Drowned Aequoria was stabilized during launch testing so the instance remains reliable while future pacing changes are worked on. Previously Fixed Sunfire ArmorLevel errors Rose to Flower drop fix Invisible Drowned Aequoria exit NPC Champion-mob sprite crash - handled by disabling the problematic sprite setup and patching client-side mappings Shadow gear landing in Etc fix Current Watchlist 100+ leveling board reward feel Custom craft item value compared with Ocean board rewards and Paradise gear Drowned Aequoria pacing, Coral Reef income, and future monster/wave expansion Player feedback from the beginner route and early economy testing Known Issues & Feedback This page tracks the main areas staff are watching during launch and explains how to report bugs or suggestions in a way that is easy to act on. How To Report Something Please include enough detail that staff can reproduce or understand the issue. A short clear report is much more useful than a vague message like "this is broken". Character: your character name Issue or suggestion: what happened or what should change Where: map, NPC, quest, item, monster, or system Steps: what you did before it happened Screenshot: include one if there is an error, crash, or visual issue Urgency: blocker, crash, balance, typo, or suggestion Current Watch List Beginner route: first login, starter rewards, Malangdo, Eden, Poring Haven, first job change, and first gear path. Client stability: missing sprites, map crashes, item description issues, and patcher-related problems. Quest hand-ins: Eden boards and custom hunt board quests that cannot be completed or feel confusing. Reward pacing: early EXP, hunt rewards, cash shop QoL pricing, World Tour Ticket usage, and playtime rewards. Poring Haven: monster placement, drops, auto-attack behaviour, and whether the zone feels useful at the right levels. Drowned Aequoria: boss spawning, party reward flow, instance pacing, and future expansion ideas. Priority Labels Blocker: stops a player from progressing or logging in. Crash: causes the client or server to crash, disconnect, or hard-error. Balance: EXP, drops, rewards, prices, or monster difficulty feel off. Clarity: dialogue, wiki text, item descriptions, or menus are confusing. Suggestion: a feature or improvement idea for future review. What Happens Next Reports are reviewed and sorted into quick fixes, balance review, wiki/documentation updates, or future roadmap items. Not every suggestion will be added, but clear feedback helps shape what gets prioritised. Fastest Support Path Use Discord for urgent issues, screenshots, and discussion.
