When I wrote about Novus Rising, the new RF patch which fixed the server crashes and raised the level cap to 66, I got a lot of comments and questions about our plans to fix the economy. As you may all know, the game economy is rather stunted with the influx of duped and illegal items which came from causing the servers to crash and exploiting this to make illegal, duped items. I told you then that everything will be addressed in due time.

Now, we’re starting to make good on that promise.

The RF team has initiated steps to clean up the economy inside the game. Good news, indeed!

The official statement after the break…

Good day citizens of Novus!

As our promise to address the issue about the duped items polluting the RF community, stated below are the measures that we did to alleviate this issue.

The Dupe Wipe

The extended maintenance that we had today is due to these efforts, which lead to the deletion of some items that are most often duplicated. The items that have been deleted are listed below.

• Celebration box [small, medium, large]
• Ignorance box [small, medium, large]
• Favor Lucky box [small, medium, large]
• Lucky Set Gem of Exchanger
• 100% Pill

To address the loss of legal (those bought through the item mall) items, they will be returned in the form of Galactic Credits.

• Reimbursement of GC will commence once the servers are all up
• Traded item mall items will not be entertained and reimbursed.
• Consumed item mall items will not be entertained and reimbursed.
• Only item mall items bought from April 25 to June 9 (7:30am) will be reimbursed.

If you believe that an item mall item is not reimbursed after 6pm of June 10, please file a ticket under “Restoration” category with the following information:

• RF Game Username
• Character Name
• Server:
• Items bought / quantity:
• Approximate Date and Time of Purchase from the Item Mall:

Please note that this information will be checked and false claims will be sanctioned by Magna Carta.
