Dojo revamped once again
Mu Lung Dojo has been reorganized!
When you defeat a boss inside Mu Lung Dojo, the timer will pause for 10 seconds. The timer will resume in 10 seconds or when you move to the next floor.
Mu Lung Dojo's ranking mode has been reorganized.
Shelter rooms have been removed. You now go through 40 floors of bosses consecutively.
Rankings will now reset every week instead of every day.
Rankings will begin to reset on Sunday at 11PM. Due to this, ranking mode will be unavailable from 11PM-12AM on Sundays.

I have 3 sw glove just sitting in on my mule. Guess it'll be worth a lot when this comes
@MapleBhav: oh, i was under the impression that it'll count as it normally does but the board will get wiped at the end of the week instead of day
I think dojo was always meant to be more competitive and not everyone's option for their main glove. This revamp kind of validates that statement.
And yet, one can also argue that Nexon is again separating the funded from the unfunded with weekly handouts due to the more competitive nature. Merp...

No, bowmasters can lose to a Kaiser/NW at the same funding after the change. (a bit iffy on the NW part since they can only use their hyper once during the whole thing)

10 seconds is plenty of time to get to the portal and go through the door where as now the latency/lag kills my time. The weekly reset is gonna force many to use alternative gloves now as only 1 person per week can get heros gloves and top 1/2 of each class/job get mu gong/so gong.
@Ruew Since it only counts once a week, they don't need to dojo until Sunday. They don't need to go right after reset as it won't make a difference they would still have to wait until next count to get gloves.
[quote=hongfung]Removing the rest area and making it reset weekly won't change the fact that you would still have to go through portals. It has more to do with latency and how far you are from Nexon's servers if anything.[/quote]
Phantoms and Bowmasters have too much power in dojo because they can fire and stand on portals easily.
Demon avengers cannot even glide or use their mobility in dojo so they automatically get sweeped under.
Normal standard jobs have to struggle with killing the boss and running to the portal.
This made things more fair and above anything else, more realistic: Now you have to be smart and use good buff orders and know how to time things. Waiting for cooldowns in the rest stages is not realistic in bossing situations unless you're dying in hard hilla or arkarium or something.
Essentially, the skilled players will now have a better chance instead of the more overpowered characters.
bowmasters gon have it pree good i suppose, dont have to worry about losing time recasting magic arrows too much nows.
I kind of like this change even tho goodbye dojo gloves for me. This change makes dojo more competitive and so not everyone will be walking around with dojo gloves unfortunately the P2W peeps will be the top contenders.
Well my dk is going to have trouble now since i don't have enough buff duration for sacrifice. This is quite interesting now and i am wondering how it wlil affect the top contenders with insane times.

I second this.
Resting Equilibrium on rest stages was the only way I was ever able to get under 5mins at dojo as a lumi.

"The door has not opened"
This should improve my time a lot since the only thing holding me back is portal lag <3
"revamped". did you mean [b]nerfed[/b]?
Rankings will now reset every week instead of every day? well good luck to people who don't get 5:xx or lower dojo times. they'll have to go right after reset.
it means good luck getting on the dojo ranking
This should actually improve my dojo time a lot :-) could get less than 5 mins now yea boy!
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
RIP to classes with lots of short duration buffs

Explorer magicians can no longer abuse Infinity in Dojo now. </3 That's almost the most central part of my Dojo run.
time to save mesos for tyrant?
Well the 10 second timer is helpful i guess. Not liking that weekly reset though.
