IRC Questions

Q: Is there a set release date on the master chef patch, and if so what day?

Heisenborg: Good news, we're having a maintenance tomorrow morning to Patch Culinary Artist. Standard maintenance I believe, regular time, should be posted on the web shortly... but yeah, 4/30

Q: What other updates will come with master chef?

Heisenborg: We're doing a cool new event which we just posted on the web, the Dressing Room Hoarder. Additionally, there will be a new Culinary Artist Ace Card and a 2x skill training event for cooking similar to the way we did things with the past Aces.

Q: Currently many entries are missing from the Dressing Room, including some items that have existed well before its release, and new clothes from recent events and gacha. Also, some items that DO have entries cannot be collected (see: Watermelon Hat). Is the Dressing Room going to be updated at some point to correct these problems?

Heisenborg: Well I picked a bad question there cause I can't really give you a concrete answer... BUT! We're aware of this issue basically, especially with this new Dressing Room Hoarder event starting tomorrow

Q: What colour socks is Sabina wearing?

Sabina: BLACK SOCKS
Heisenborg: I can confirm that

Q: Is the culinary artist/master chef card going to be half off on the second week, or added to the old ace system? Also, I take every slanderous comment I have ever handed you folks back. Thankee.

Heisenborg: The Culinary Ace Card will NOT be half off when the other Ace Cards are. You can get a regular Ace card for half off AND as many Culinary Artist cards as you like. It comes with a sweet outfit, but it's priced similarly to the previous Aces.

Q: does sabina love me back?;;

Sabina: Of course T^T

Q: If I bought an ace card on sale last week, can I rebirth into a culinary artist with that card?

Heisenborg: If you still have the Ace Card AS a card, you should be able to use it after Culianry Artist has been patched. However, it's a different card than the Culinary Artist Ace Card, so no costume, none of the other goodies, etc.

Q: Why are we not up to date with Mabinogi Korea? As an example, lowered XP rates, unreleased content, and only 1 AP per level.++

Heisenborg: This is a complicated question and a little off topic. It's also got a complicated answer - the basic gist though is that its a time difference and coordinating hurdle. content is released in different ways/times/etc in all kinds of different regions, which makes NA unique in some aspects, and other services unique as well.Also - it keeps people guessing. :)

Q: Why not have a 2x training event for ALL life skills just as Vate had 2x training for all alchemy skills, 2x training for all bard skills from Diva, and 2x training for all magic skills from Merlin? And would the event only give training bonus for cooking or all other cooking related skills?

Heisenborg: These are the skills: Cooking Talent Cooking skill, Egg Gathering skill, Milking skill, Harvesting skill, Hoeing skill, Wine Making skill, Mushroom Gathering skill, Production Mastery skill

Q: Any word on the next ace after Master Chef? The Treasure Hunter and its general release time?

Heisenborg: Probably not what you want to hear BUT... Treasure Hunter comes after Culinary Artist. :) That's all the info I have on that for now.

Q: Will the Precentages for ingrediants be shown with this ace to help make cooking a bit easier?

Heisenborg: There are a few changes to the ingredients system in this update, including a bigger variety and the ability to hold more in your inventory at once. But as far as releasing the percentage rates... I assume you mean drop rates for the new Ingredient Hunting Skill? You'll probably have to get that kind of information from Mabi Wiki... :)
Staff: I believe they mean percentages on the cooking ruler.
Heisenborg: Ah. Well no I don't have information on that I'm afraid lol. NEXT QUESTION

Q: Are the new dual wielding kitchen knives special upgradable and can be enchanted or is it just another fashion item?

Heisenborg: These are weapons, not fashion items, so they can be upgraded like other weaponry. They'll be available in a special giveaway if you log in this Saturday. :) More info on that coming to the web tomorrow.

Q: Apuesto a que no puede leer esto, ¿verdad?

Heisenborg: ...mi espanol este muy mal

Q: Can elves dual wield the cooking weapons :(

Heisenborg: Yes. :)

Q: Ok, the spanish question was to make sure you were paying attention. Now, is it possible to make Mini-Golems a pet to buy? I've wanted one as a pet for years now!

Heisenborg: lol. The Mabi Wiki staff supports your vote for a mini golem pet. Anything is possible, thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, nothing of that sort is planned for the immediate future. But we DO send a list of suggestions gathered by players to our developers. It's not every day, but popular suggestions are aggregated by Sabina and sent to devs by our Production team. The best way to get something like that in the game is to show there's a lot of community support. :)

Q: Where do we go or post to show a lot of community support an idea?

Heisenborg: The FORUMS! :D

Q: What sort of actions are being taken in the new patch to encourage people to rank cooking?

Heisenborg: I mentioned earlier - there's a 2x skill training event which will run for the first 2 weeks of the new content. Additionally, you can get some nifty boosts if you get the Culinary Artist Character Card. Other than that... everyone's going to be cooking stuff. So peer pressure? Is that an action? Seeing a bunch of fat people running around?

Q: Is cooking going to become a great source of buffing after this update?

Heisenborg: That's kindof subjective but IMO this makes cooking much more useful in-game. Setting up a feast before your party is about to tackle a boss/dragon/whatever should be a big help

Q: what new dishes are coming up with the chef update? please tell me my mouth is water

Heisenborg: Rice Cake Soup. mmmmm.... sounds so good..... Is your mouth still watering? :P

Q: Someone also is asking questions about the Dressing Room hoarder event

Heisenborg: There are an enormous amount of items which could be won. Each day you get a different Fashionogi Box (hat,shoes,gloves,outfit,etc). These each have between I believe 70 - 200 possible items to receive.

Q: Hamburger costumes~?

Heisenborg: That's a funny idea... I like it. Not this time I'm afraid. Flock to the forums with that one! Art work, concept images... that's the stuff I'd like to see haha :P

Q: Could you name a few of the rare ones that will be in the event?

Heisenborg: I believe that question is relating to Dressing Room Hoarder. The coolest ones are some brand new Joker like outfits. I can't find the names of the outfits on hand... They're featured in the image on the web event. Sorry i don't have teh names handy. :/

Q: Will Heisenborg play as a master chef?

Heisenborg: My character will be a giant, and he will be very fat. But he's too hairy to be a chef. Wouldn't do well to keep him around food.
