Every year around the Ragnarok Online aniversary (for jRO is December 1st), Gungho offers a retail package for RO that contains a variety of goodies and tickets for several in game headgears.  A new line-up of in game items is available in the 8th Anniversary Package.
This years package contains the following goodies:
1 DVD-ROM
– Ragnarok Online Latest Client
– 8x Original Card Design Template
– 5x Original Desktop Wallpapers
– 3x Original Screen Savers
New Game Item Tickets
– Little Feather Cap

Game Time Tickets

– 1 New Account 30 Day Game Ticket
Other Items

The cost of the package is 12,180 yen, which is a lot of money. Â Games traditionally retail for 6,000-10,000 yen, although 12,000 isn’t unheard of, it’s still expensive. Â The Yen is incredibly strong vs the US dollar at the moment, so that’s about $146 US. Â While the contents are made to be enticing, it’s no secret that what you’re really paying for is the in game headgears.
So lets take a look at the headgears shall we?

Hello Doddler. I’d just like to clarify things regarding the Demon Mask[0].
It says there that if worn with either Succubus Horns or Incubus Horns, it gives Aspd+1, Attack Speed + 9%, and drains 3 SP every 2 seconds.
Does this mean that you get a flat 1 increase in Aspd, and a 9% increase as well? Or is this just a typo?
Just curious. 🙂
It would give you a flat out +1 aspd on top of the total 10% aspd when used in the combo.
Whoa~ I see.
These jRO Anniversary headgears are definitely interesting.
Thanks for the quick response. Keep us posted! /no1
These are really interesting!
The only thing I have to comment negatively on is the price, which is really expensive. I buy mostly all headgears and weapons that are useful and look rather nice, but this is really not easy to say “Yes! I’ll buy it”. I have to think about this a lot. I might buy one. But from my current standpoint right now, I wouldn’t.
i hope they combo it into Large Bhapo Horn so i can wear it in WOE
Excellent website you have here but I was curious about if you knew of any forums that cover the same topics discussed here? I’d really like to be a part of community where I can get responses from other knowledgeable people that share the same interest. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. Many thanks!
