Hello, Dear Ragnarok Online Zero adventurers, this is the RO1 Studio Zero Team.
Experience points for some monsters in the Rachel field are scheduled to be adjusted, and we would like to provide advance notice to adventurers regarding this matter.
Among the Rachel areas, the Ice Cave and Temple Sanctuary dungeons were updated with the goal of being key Hunting Grounds for high-spec adventurers to train their characters, while the Rachel field was intended to be a Hunting Ground where adventurers without high-spec equipment setups could also hunt.
However, contrary to this goal, after the update it was confirmed that, compared to the Ice Cave and Temple Sanctuary, the Rachel field's monster experience was excessive relative to its hunting difficulty, making it relatively easy to level up and train characters in a short amount of time.
We determined that this could lead to excessive concentration on specific party hunting or continued imbalance in the character training process across job classes, and could also hinder the direction of future updates. As a result, we have discussed and decided that it is unavoidable to adjust the experience of some monsters in the Rachel field.
However, since a sudden adjustment to monster experience could cause confusion for adventurers using the game, we would like to notify you in advance and proceed with the patch after a certain period of time. Please check the maintenance schedule below.

In addition, we are also monitoring the various opinions sent by many adventurers through the community and customer center, including feedback on hunting efficiency in the Temple Sanctuary after the Rachel area update. Even if we are unable to provide a definite answer right away, we will continue to look for ways to improve this in the future.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused regarding the monster experience adjustment, and the Zero Team will continue to work hard to move in a direction that satisfies our adventurers.
Thank you.
