| Hello from the CosmicBreak Service Team. This week's maintenance is complete, thank you for waiting! No one posted it so I'll do it myself. ; _ ;------------------------------------------------------------ New Beginners Channel!We are proud to announce the release of a channel aimed directly at newcomers to the Cosmic Ark, the Beginners Channel! Only players ranked Steel Hero (15) or lower will be able to enter, and the use of certain higher tier robots will be restricted in the Beginners Channel, in order to give newer players a more friendly play environment in which to adjust to the game.  Shop contents and Garapons are also different in the Beginners Channel. With the addition of the new Beginners Channel, new players will not be able to enter the normal channels until they are Steel Hero (12) or higher. This doesn't affect accounts that were already created as of 12/13 maintenance. For more information about the Beginners Channel, click here. (Click to Enlarge) We hope that the new Beginners Channel will make getting used to CosmicBreak a more enjoyable experience for our new players! ------------------------------------------------------------ CosmicBreak 2nd Anniversary Campaign!In celebration of the 2nd Anniversary of CosmicBreak, we will be running a 2nd Anniversary Campaign! During the campaign, players can randomly receive Rt from Union Wars as a prize! Players may receive up to 3 Rt per day during the campaign. The 2nd Anniversary Campaign runs until 1/17, so make sure to play lots of Arena to get some extra Rt! IMPORTANT: During this campaign, GMs will be observing Arena more than usual! Week long bans will be dished out to anyone found botting in the Arena. Putting a heavy object on your spacebar DOES count as botting! You have been warned.------------------------------------------------------------ 2nd Anniversary BoxesAlso in honor of CosmicBreak's 2nd Anniversary, new items called 2nd Anniversary Boxes and C.S.'s Card Key ALPHAs are being added as drops in Union Wars and Epoch. The 2nd Anniversary Boxes require one key each to open, and opening a box will reward you with a single random prize. The prize pool contains many valuable items, including a new part called the Segment Tail LGJ!C.S.'s Card Key ALPHAs may be found as drops in the arena, and C.S.'s Card Key OMEGAs may be purchased in the store for 20 Rt each, or 100Rt for a six pack. Both keys open the 2nd Anniversary Boxes and yield the same prizes, but the C.S.'s Card Key ALPHA is tradeable in the Bazaar, while the OMEGA version is not. Click below for a complete list of 2nd Anniversary Box prizes: 2nd Anniversary Boxes and C.S.'s Card Keys will be available until 12/27. Enjoy! ------------------------------------------------------------ XMAS PEPEN REBELLION!The Pepen Rebellion Mission now has a Christmas theme! Challenge yourself by going head to head against a horde of angry Pepens armed with adorable Santa Hats! The Xmas Pepen Rebellion Mission will be available until 12/27. ------------------------------------------------------------ Material Exchange x2 CampaignUntil 12/20, when you exchange Tune Up materials at Ouka's store, you'll get twice the points! Ohhhh yeeeaaahh! ------------------------------------------------------------ CosmicBreak Official Wall Scrolls!We are pleased to announce the sale of limited edition CosmicBreak Wallscrolls! Kuten Jikun Long, Ivis, Lily Rain EVE, and Resha/Eris wallscrolls are available in the in-game Shop for 750 Rt each, including shipping. Each wallscroll measures 25.5" (65cm) by 41.5" (105cm) and comes with a Cosmo Harmonics OMEGA item in-game (The Cosmo Harmonics OMEGAs will be passed out after we have collected everyone's shipping addresses). We're sorry, but for now, we can only ship the wallscrolls to U.S. addresses.For more information and details about address input, click here. The sale will run until 1/10, but we only have a limited supply of wallscrolls, so if you are interested buy them quick! Thank you! ------------------------------------------------------------ Friendship Items and Christmas Drops!The Icicle Halberd, Icicle Shield, Xmas Snow Bazooka, and Xmas Bell Hammer are available as drops from various game modes, and the Xmas Tree Lance and Xmas Rocket AMJ have been added as Friendship Rewards for the holiday season! Older HD accessories Snow Bonbon B, Xmas Ear Muff P, Xmas Holly P, and Santa Cap Y will also be available as prizes in Union Wars, Missions, Boss Quests, and Arcantus. These accessories were originally only available in last year's Christmas Discs, so get them now if you missed them last year! All of the Christmas themed items listed above will be available until 12/27! In addition to the limited time only Christmas parts, many other valuable prizes have been added as permanent Friendship Rewards.

She will available in the shop for 4000 UC. ------------------------------------------------------------ Triple Bazaar!We will be holding Three Bazaar Events this month! 12/15, 12/22, and 12/29, from 0:00 Server Time to 24:00 Server Time. Trade away stuff you don't need and pick up anything you do, especially those C.S.'s Card Key ALPHAs! IMPORTANT NOTE: Since the addition of Bazaar to the game, we have been receiving an increased number of reports regarding accounts being stolen and/or cleared out due to password sharing. REMEMBER, NEVER TELL ANYONE YOUR PASSWORD!!! If you lose items/robots from your account because you told somebody else your password, it is highly unlikely that we will be able to help you, especially if the incident involves said items being traded away via the Bazaar. Thank you in advance for your understanding. Happy trading! ------------------------------------------------------------ Radio Event!On December 14th, 21st, and 28th, we will be running radio shows featuring the seiyuu of CosmicBreak characters on Nico Nico Live! Tune in and listen to our cast of character say cute (and/or manly) things!

| snowflake shield is a 55cost, S-sized, 70EHP shield with 7 force subweapon that is short lunge that applies a freezing effect. Like most shield weapons, this is not usable after the shield breaks.
snow bazooka has the following stats: ALL TYPES M-sized -1fly -1wlk 15force 200ammo 270range 320speed 500int
seems to be 30% blast, 70% shell. The blast AoE is TINY. | |

| Yeah, those rooms are pretty fun. I still get screwed over by everything but at least it aren't by gay things.
Though since the room tends to be pretty crowded lag makes it even more annoying coz more random stuff is happening. | |

{navlinks image} It's a right-to-left comic and pages are flipped to progress through the book in right-to-left as well. Navigation systems designed for western audiences might put the more familiar "Left to advance" creed in their design, but this probably wasn't designed for western audiences to begin with. | |

Prior, to what Jade say is true. Japanese write and reads from the right side of their's content, rather from our left. Which is also true for most of eastern Asian culture, such as the Chinese. The comic or rather manga were designed for them, but since it has to be complemented for western culture to easily understand it concepts. | |

| Ik how Japanese read, considering I read manga.
But this is CBEN, not CBJP. Ik they take everything over from CBJP, but they sure don't put much effort in details. o -o | |

Anyways, how's the lag treating the players? | |

| At first, I have no issue with the lag, but now, it just horrible for me. My client crashed 8-9 times in a succession of rows and when it finally stop crashing; the other problem occurred aka lag. | |

| Achieved 5m (yes, million) crimpoints over the course of 6 hours of crimming because of this update. Spamming Super UC Garapon really pays off. | |
