Ragnarok Battle Offline - Translation Patch (By Sara-Chan)

Hi. Many people are intimidated by the fact that Ragnarok Battle Offline is NOT in English. I have good news... Sara-Chan (not me!) has translated much of the game into English! Skills are in English now. Even those people talking in the background speak English now. =)

General Information: Ragnarok Battle Offline is a sidescrolling fighter with RPG aspects. It is based on Gravity's Ragnarok Online. There are 7 classes (Swordsman, Acolyte, Magician, Thief, Merchant, Archer, and Novice) to choose from and 2 genders for each class. (If you can't figure out what those are, I suggest you look down...


...Male and Female. Did I get ya? =P)

Male and Female characters have different animations so it really feels like there are 12 classes. There are TECHNICALLY 6 classes, but there are huge differences between male and female characters!

Example:
Male Archer: Shoots arrows that descend. Arrow Rain (Grabs a whole bunch of arrows and shoots them all forward at the same time.)
Female Archer: Shoots arrows straight. Arrow Rain (Shoots many arrows into the air. They then come down diagonally and pierce through enemies.)

VERY different. =)

French Bread (the developers of this game) released three expansions. They added an Arena mode and several new maps. Unfortunately, there were no new classes added because that would take far too long to do.

Oh, and multiplayer is shared on the same computer. You can have up to three people playing at once. (And, yes, it gets crammed.)

The game has since been recognized by Gravity and appears on some of the official Ragnarok Online websites! There is NO official English version, but if you paid any attention at all, you would realize that this topic was made to point out the fact that Sara-Chan is translating the game at an amazing rate! The game could be 100% English soon, according to Sara-Chan. ^,^

Have fun.

Thanks for the links,I think I'll download it again,I need more space on my hard-drive before though.

You're welcome, and I need more space too. >,<

(I have the full game in a virtual layer, though. That makes it nice and easy to mess with.)

It allows you to make virtual layers that you can active and deactivate. I use it to make "capsules" of games I install so that I can easily move them to other computers. I also use it when I'm not sure about a file that I want to open. (So, if it installs spyware, it's only installed on a virtual layer that I can remove easily.)


That was kind of random, but you may find it useful to install this game on a virtual layer.

I was going to donwload this before, but the dl wouldn't work. Is this game long? Does it have a lot of levels/etc.?

Without the expansions, there are 8 stages. These last around 5-10 minutes each at first. After you beat all 8 stages with the 6 classes (any gender), you unlock *spoilers?*novice*spoilers?*. Once you beat the game with that, you unlock a 9th stage.

If you get the expansions, you get a bunch of new stages AND arena mode, which vary in length.

Overall, the game isn't terribly long, but it's very fun trying out new characters and character builds. For example, Double Attack (thief) actually makes a ghostly image of yourself that follow your for a while and mimics your movements! (Doing half your damage!) Couple that with a female thief (fastest class) and high agility and you have a blazing fast (before the expansions, female thieves could outrun the screen) double hitting character. That's only one build! You can also make a mage that spams Ice Bolt (drops 1 * Ice Bolt Level... bolts in randomly locations. If you max it, you get 10 Ice Bolts that drop randomly. Spam it for a cool effect!)

And so on! Check out ragnarokbattle.com for guides and stuff...

(Click the character's NAME to change class/gender. Skills have skill requirements... If you're wondering why there are only a few skills there right now. If you've played RO, I think the requirements are the same so this should be familiar. Max level is 30 IF you have the expansions.)

I'm gonna check this out. Played it before, but now I feel like plain' again.
