What is the Ruud System

Ruud is one of the most important special currencies in MU Online Season 6, functioning as a parallel reward system alongside Zen (the game's standard currency). Unlike Zen, which is obtained by selling items and from monster drops, Ruud is earned exclusively through event participation, completion of specific quests, and character progression rewards.

The NPC Ruud Exchanger is the central point of this system, allowing players to convert their accumulated Ruud into high-value items, including exclusive equipment, rare Jewels, and crafting materials that cannot be obtained any other way in S6.

Nota: The Ruud system was introduced to offer a progression alternative that does not rely exclusively on random monster drops, making advancement more accessible for players who actively participate in events.

NPC Ruud Exchanger Location

The NPC Ruud Exchanger is strategically positioned in Lorencia, the starting map and main hub of MU Online. To find it:

Lorencia → Central Area → Approximate coordinates X: 130, Y: 135

The NPC has a distinct appearance with a golden aura and is always accompanied by a trade symbol visible on the minimap. On some servers, a secondary access point may be available in Devias, making it more convenient for higher-level players who move between mid-tier maps (Atlans, Tarkan, Icarus).

How to Earn Ruud

Primary Sources of Ruud

Earning Ruud in S6 is tied primarily to event participation and quest completion. Below are the most reliable sources, with their level requirements and daily limits:

SourceRuud per ParticipationFrequencyMinimum Level
Blood Castle (BC 1-7)30 – 2602x per day15
Devil Square (DS 1-5)40 – 1202x per day20
Chaos Castle (CC)20 – 804x per day15
Illusion Temple50 – 2003x per day100
Imperial Guardian80 – 3001x per day200
Character Quests50 – 500One-timeVaries
Level Up Rewards10 – 100Per levelAutomatic
Dica: Imperial Guardian offers the highest Ruud per session, but requires well-equipped characters. Form a 5-member party with complementary classes — DK or Blade Knight as tank, High Elf as support, Grand Master or Lord Emperor as damage dealers — to complete the event quickly and maximize rewards.

Event Ruud Breakdown

Blood Castle (Levels 1 through 7)

Blood Castle is divided into 7 stages, each with distinct level requirements and proportional rewards. The Ruud amount varies based on individual performance: the player who destroys the Blood Stone or contributes most throughout the event receives the top-performance bonus.

BC LevelCharacter LevelRuud (Participation)Ruud (Top Performance)
BC 115 – 803060
BC 281 – 1304590
BC 3131 – 18060120
BC 4181 – 23075150
BC 5231 – 28090180
BC 6281 – 330110220
BC 7331+130260

Devil Square (Levels 1 through 5)

In Devil Square, Ruud is distributed based on the number of monsters eliminated by the character within the event's time limit. Players with higher damage output — especially Dark Wizards with AoE spells or Magic Gladiators with burst skills — naturally earn more Ruud per session.

DS LevelCharacter LevelAverage Ruud
DS 120 – 11040
DS 2111 – 16060
DS 3161 – 21080
DS 4211 – 260100
DS 5261+120

Illusion Temple

Illusion Temple is a PvP-PvE capture-the-flag event. It requires a minimum level of 100 and is played in teams of 4 to 5 players. Ruud awarded depends on the match outcome (win or loss) and individual contribution. Victories can yield up to 200 Ruud per session.

Items Available at the Ruud Exchanger

The NPC Ruud Exchanger offers a varied catalog of items organized into categories. Prices reflect base S6 values — customized servers may have different tables.

Jewels and Materials

All 7 Jewels from the S6 system are available at the Ruud Exchanger. Each Jewel plays a distinct role in item progression:

ItemRuud CostPrimary Function
Jewel of Bless300Increases item level (+1 to +6 without risk)
Jewel of Soul200Increases item level (with failure chance above +6)
Jewel of Life500Adds additional options to items (+Luck, +Life, +Skill)
Jewel of Chaos400Base material for Chaos Goblin recipes
Jewel of Creation600Material for Wing L3 crafting and advanced recipes
Jewel of Guardian350Protects an item from destruction on failed combinations
Jewel of Harmony700Adds Harmony Options attributes to items
Atenção: The prices listed are base values from standard S6. Private or customized servers may significantly alter these values. Always verify prices directly at the NPC before planning your trades.

Class-Specific Equipment

The Ruud Exchanger also provides access to equipment pieces not available as drops from common monsters. Items have class and level restrictions:

CategoryItem ExamplesRequirementApproximate Cost (Ruud)
Mid-tier WeaponsSwords, Staves, Bows +0Level 150+800 – 1,500
Specific ArmorsCommon set pieces +0Level 100+600 – 1,200
AccessoriesBasic rings and pendantsLevel 50+400 – 900
Exclusive Set ItemsEvent set piecesLevel 300+2,000 – 5,000

Crafting Materials

Some materials for Chaos Goblin recipes are available via Ruud, facilitating progression without relying on rare boss drops:

Materials available via Ruud Exchanger:
→ Burning Flame Fragment (Boss recipe material)
→ Splinter of Armor (Combination material)
→ Crest of Monarch (Castle Siege material)
→ Jewel of Creation (required for Wing L3)
Nota: The Jewel of Creation obtained at the Ruud Exchanger is a legitimate alternative to drops from Kundun (Kalima 7), Nightmare (Kanturu 3), and Selupan (Raklion). To craft Wing L3, you need: Wing L2 + 3x Loch's Feather + 1x Jewel of Creation.

Ruud Accumulation Strategies

For Beginner Players (Level 1 – 150)

In the early stages of a character, focus on lower-level events that consistently provide Ruud:

Recommended daily routine (beginner):
→ Blood Castle 1-3 (2 entries/day)
→ Devil Square 1-2 (2 entries/day)
→ Chaos Castle (4 entries/day)
→ Available character quests (First Quest, Second Quest)
Dica: Complete all available character quests before reaching maximum level. Many unique quests offer one-time Ruud rewards that cannot be earned again. Note: DK, DW, Elf, and Summoner have First and Second Quests. MG and DL do not have these quests.

For Intermediate Players (Level 151 – 300)

At this stage, Illusion Temple becomes accessible (level 100+) and represents a significant jump in Ruud earned per session:

Optimized routine (intermediate):
→ Blood Castle 4-5 (2 entries/day)
→ Devil Square 3-4 (2 entries/day)
→ Illusion Temple (3 entries/day) — requires organized party
→ Guild and daily quests

For Advanced Players (Level 301+)

With high-level characters, Imperial Guardian offers the best rewards. Party organization is essential to complete the event within the time limit:

Ideal party composition for Imperial Guardian:
→ 1x Blade Knight / Blade Master (main tank)
→ 1x High Elf (Triple Shot + defense and speed buffs)
→ 1x Grand Master (AoE spells for crowd control)
→ 1x Lord Emperor (CMD buff = stat boost for all party members)
→ 1x Duel Master or Dimension Master (secondary damage)
Nota: The Lord Emperor has the exclusive CMD (Command) attribute, which boosts the stats of all party members proportionally to its CMD level. In events like Imperial Guardian, having a well-built DL with high CMD in the party accelerates event completion and increases total Ruud earned by the group.

Event Efficiency Comparison

To maximize Ruud earned per hour of gameplay, consider each event's efficiency available in S6:

EventRuud/Hour (estimated)DifficultyParty RequiredNotes
Chaos Castle80 – 160LowNoUp to 7 stages
Blood Castle120 – 260Low/MediumOptional7 stages (BC1-7)
Devil Square80 – 240MediumNo5 stages (DS1-5)
Illusion Temple150 – 400MediumYes (4-5)PvP + PvE
Imperial Guardian200 – 600HighYes (5)Best Ruud/hour
Crywolf FortressVariableVery HighYes (raid)Special mechanic
Atenção: The Crywolf Fortress event has a unique and critical mechanic: if Crywolf fails (Balgass wins and destroys the Wolf Altar), players do not receive normal Ruud. However, the boss Balgass then begins dropping exclusively Loch's Feather — the material required to craft Level 3 Wings. You need 3x Loch's Feathers per Wing L3 combination. This is an indirect trade of enormous strategic value: Crywolf failure is, paradoxically, necessary for players pursuing Wing L3.

Ruud Storage Limit System

Each character in MU Online S6 has a maximum storable Ruud cap. This limit encourages regular use of the currency and prevents excessive accumulation:

Level RangeRuud Storage Cap
1 – 1005,000
101 – 20010,000
201 – 30020,000
301 – 40035,000
401+50,000
Dica: Monitor your Ruud balance regularly. Exceeding the cap causes excess Ruud to be automatically lost. Schedule your NPC Ruud Exchanger trades before reaching the ceiling.

Integration with Other S6 Systems

Ruud does not exist in isolation — it integrates with fundamental systems in MU Online S6:

Level 3 Wings (Wing L3)

Wing L3 is crafted at the Chaos Goblin with the following recipe:

Wing L3 = Wing L2 + 3x Loch's Feather + 1x Jewel of Creation
→ Loch's Feather: exclusive drop from Balgass (only when Crywolf FAILS)
→ Jewel of Creation: drops from Kundun (K7), Nightmare (Kanturu3), Selupan (Raklion)
→ Jewel of Creation: also available at the Ruud Exchanger

Ancient Sets in S6

S6 features a wide collection of Ancient Sets, each linked to specific classes. Some servers allow acquiring pieces via Ruud:

Class Performance in Ruud Events

Each class has distinct performance across Ruud-generating events:

ClassMost Profitable EventsRuud/Hour Potential
Blade Knight / Blade MasterImperial Guardian, DSHigh (survivability)
Soul Master / Grand MasterBC, DS, Illusion TempleVery High (AoE damage)
Muse Elf / High ElfAll events (support)Medium (essential in party)
Duel Master (MG)DS, Imperial GuardianHigh (burst damage)
Lord Emperor (DL)Imperial GuardianMedium + CMD multiplier
Bloody Summoner / Dimension MasterDS, Illusion TempleHigh (summon damage)
Nota: The Magic Gladiator (MG / Duel Master) has no First Quest or Second Quest, and cannot equip Level 1 Wings. Its wing progression starts directly at Wing L2, making the Ruud Exchanger — as a source of Jewels of Creation — especially relevant for this class. The Dark Lord (DL / Lord Emperor) also skips Level 1 Wings and has the unique CMD stat that scales party-wide buffs in group events.
