Nov 28 2025 Changelog

Happy Thanksgiving

For those who celebrate it in the United States, hope you had an enjoyable Thanksgiving dinner and had lots of Turkey. How about some in heRO too?

There is a new, simple quest in /navi Yuno 185/218, where you can craft multiple Thanksgiving themed hats and costumes. This will be a permanent addition to heRO. Some of them are old hats where this will be their new home, while some are brand new! The available headgear are:

• (new) Showy High Cap
• (new) Costume Showy High Cap
• Pilgrim Hat
• Grand Peco Hairband
• Costume Rainbow Feather Decoration

Completing the quest will require hunting Turkey, a new low-level mob available in yuno_fild05 (60), yuno_fild04 (30), and ein_fild06 (10). The Turkey also has a direct headgear drop along with a new card!

Again, these are permanent additions so you can take your time to slowly assemble the new headgear and costumes at your own pace.

Hatter/V4P Hat Changes

In our slow and endless pursuit to find permanent homes for lot of V4P headgear so that they are obtainable without waiting for events, we have shuffled some V4P headgear out of the V4P Gear Box and into Old Red Box (Hatter) instead.

The following headgear are removed from Hatter/Old Red Box as most of them have been on the Hatter list for a very, very long time:

• Phrygian Cap (removed from game and no longer obtainable; Cookie Hat looks the same with a slightly more relevant effect and a costume version also exists. If you have this hat, feel free to keep it as a souvenir)
• Pizza Hat
• Jejecap
• Frog King Hat
• Drooping Bunny
• Captain's Hat
• Sleeper Hat
• Imp Hat
• Fish Head Hat
• Gryphon Hat
• Alice Doll
• Cyclops Eye
• Wickebine Ears

Newly added to Old Red Box as replacement at the same drop rate:

• Hibiscus (previously unreleased headgear)
• Kerchief (previously fairy auction only costume)
• Pterios Fins (previously V4P)
• Injured Eyepatch (previously V4P)
• Hexagon Glasses (previously V4P)
• Stunner Shades (previously V4P)
• New Wave Sunglasses (previously V4P)
• Heart Eyepatch (previously V4P)
• Wing Style Spectacle (previously V4P)
• Weissbier Hat (note: DB is incorrect regarding its slot. It is NOT slotted) (previously V4P)
• Hankerchief in Mouth (previously V4P)
• Vioopnir Star (dbsearcher not updated yet; brand new headgear, no slot)
• Ancient Scholar Hat (dbsearcher not updated yet; brand new headgear, slotted)

V4P Gear Box will lose the following. Note that the intention is for some day the list to be empty and we don't have V4P Gear Box anymore.

• All hats that are added to Hatter in this update
• Carrot In Mouth
• Blood Sucker
• Poker Card In Mouth
• Imperial Feather
• Irish Topper
• CD In Mouth
• Cheering Whistle
• Tongue Charm
• Weisswurst
• Blood Butterfly Ears
• Leek In Mouth
• Chilly Breath

All of these headgears are available ingame already via monster drops, in another box item (Irish Topper), newly added in quests this update or newly added as monster drops this update; see below.

Monster Changes

• Giant Octopus from Malangdo Dungeon Instance (different from Malangdo Culvert Instance) drops the new "Bra Hat" at 15%, plus an additional chance as MVP gear drop at 20% (for an effective drop rate of 22% to get 1 or more per kill). Why does the Bra Hat show up there? Go to the instance and you will see.

Prize Medal Shop Update

Not a lot of people may have read the page and this is on us for not promoting it more: but there's LOTS of headgear and costumes you can get via Prize Medals. One of the shop in Yuno is supposed to to have all of the "7% bonus damage" racial series in the shop but apparently it was missing a few of them. They have all been added to the prize medal shop accordingly and the wiki has been updated.

As a result of this, a few monsters who dropped the items directly + other quests will no longer drop it. You must use prize medals to trade for headgear of this series, going forward.

The Costume 20th Anniversary Deviruchi has been added to the October shop if you missed this year's Halloween.

Quest Changes

• Peco Breeding Quest bonus headgear has been swapped out again from Grand Peco Headband to the Chicken Beak. We apologize for this oversight as it was due to miscommunication between myself and Ciar who was coding the Thanksgiving hat turn-in. Please talk to the NPC to retroactively get this reward if you did NOT get the Grand Peco Headband from this quest.
• Juperos Ruins History Quest not only produce the Scotts Power Pack from anniversary each repeatable turn-in, but it also has a 10% chance to create the CD In Mouth
• Dominoes Cap Quest will also give you the Pizza Hat upon quest completion. This bonus item is retroactive: if you have completed this quest in the past, you can talk to the NPC to pick up the new hat immediately.
• The Sign Quest will no longer reward the Bloody Angel Wing Ear but instead give a 6th Enriched Oridecon and 6th Enriched Elunium.
