Beggars #02 + Lighthouse Outing

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

He spent half an hour doing this. -_-;; (Or rather, he spent at least half an hour doing this. He must've been at it before I was even in the area, and I left before he was done.)

The letters p, l, s, g, i, v, e, m, o, n, and y must be worn out on his keyboard.

He seems, I regret to say, to be a Singaporean. Disgraceful. I wonder what his parents would say if someone told them their son/daughter goes around literally begging for money in a game. >_>

Anyway, I was half-tracking him as I browsed around shops.

Speaking of shops, the skill Open Market is now called:

And to get back on topic, I think I know who is to blame for all these beggars (well, besides their own laziness).

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Yes, he is teh one! By the way, his name is now Myad. He's also the guy to go to for the Episode Quest (a.k.a. Luna Quest, a.k.a. The Never-ending Quest). The above screenshot is from pre-reset.

Now to end this post with some nice screenshots. ^_^

Don't have a clue as to where this lighthouse is?

Look at the map here:

Bet you didn't notice that there were cranes in Junon Polis now, did you?

And here's the same view at night:

Vegeto the Moron + Stalls of the Day #02

Vegeto is a moron. And why do I say that?

#1

I was sitting northeast of Junon with Uhglooblah. And Vegeto the Moron said, "Hey muses, I'd give you zulie if you kill that moldie over there."

Duh.

What is that supposed to mean?!

Uhglooblah was AFK; I simply ignored that request or whatever you wanna call it.

#2

He said, "get off your lazy ass".

He doesn't know us, never even talked to us before this; that makes it a rude remark (even though I am lazy). We weren't even in a party with him, for fuck's sake.

#3

The moron asks, "i suppose girlfriend and boyfriend?"

Me: lol

After killing something,

Me: btw, that lol meant u suppose wrong

TM: i don't mean rl1, i meant i-g2

Me: still wrong

No further reply from him but I just had to add in, "u supposed wrong, just admit it ^^".

Now, on to... more morons.

Stalls of the Day #02

Unique weapons (and with sockets to boot) for 10K? Dream on.

Cheap bastard.

After the Reset...

It took me a bloody long time to lvl from 29 -> 30.





-_-;;

We thought it was some sort of bug at first.

Then I found out why. When GM Kiki said that there'd be a new lvling system and that it'd be harder to lvl, it meant that at certain lvls, there'd be a whole lot more EXP required to get to the next lvl. Well, my screenshots *points above* explains it best.

The lvls that are supposed to be affected are by every 20 lvls: 9 -> 10, 29 -> 30, 49 -> 50, 69 -> 70.

I personally don't recall 9 -> 10 being that horrid, but then, it was right after the reset, and it was extremely laggy so it was a pain already.

Playing right after the reset... was terrible. You're lucky if you didn't. Oh, it was fun seeing familiar names (so many of them too!) and having people come up to you and going, "Hey, I was xxxx before the reset".

But the lag was horrendous due to the sheer amount of players. O_O

Check out how popular Birth Island's fairy was:

Yeah, that thing partly outlined is the fairy.

There were a lot of peeps just standing still. Were they just AFK1? Nooo, they were all frozen by that deadly lag. Look at us all stuck helplessly in Zant at the portal leading to Luxem Valley:

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Anyone who ran over to go through the portal simply joined us in posing as statues. It was rather funny. But taking a few minutes to get to Luxem Valley wasn't. It should have taken mere seconds!

As a result of teh Mega Lag, you see a lot of people saying:
  1. i can't move!!!

  2. laaaaaagggyyy

  3. press alt+F4 to get rid of lag!

  4. fucking laggy
and the like.

I liked what this two said though ^^:

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

And yes, some jokers said that pressing alt+F4 will release you from the lag. In a way, it's true, since it'd cause the game to close itself.

As a parting shot, see a piece of hell I experienced:

That Is Me With...

Hehe, RukiaTheR3aper and me!

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

That wasn't too good. Another one!

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Much better, no? He's (uh, yeah, it's a he IRL) so shiny in his refined (7) Venison Dress.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Ah, who is that?

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Ooh, Behemoth King!

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

This feels like celebrity-spotting and then running over to take a picture with him/her.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

OK, he doesn't like me much. Maybe he thinks i'm from the paparazzi. Oww!

And then he made me flash... T_T

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Bah! On to one of the nicest people in Rose:

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

She is one of my favourite clerics (well, pre-reset, she's going bourg after).

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

I can't get enough of her in that gorgeous Violet Dress. XD

Ok, a final view of her:

And now, pictures of me and DeadSanity.

I will miss gossiping with her in Rose. Her hands now move over the keyboard and mouse for Conquer Online. ^^

And here's 2 cute shots of me and Kupfel.

That is aww-inducing, but, but... What am I doing with the perv?! When he says things like this:

O_o

Evidence #2 to support the statement "Kupel is a perv" is served. Heh.

Randomness #01

#1

This made me go >_>. He was running after a female character called XxSexyGirlxX (something like that) and seemingly wanting to strike up a conversation (to hit on her). <_< Well, she ran away without talking to him. Ha.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

#2

Friend telling me about why he's not gonna be a dealer after the reset.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Mercs = Slaves ^^;;

#3

Wondering why the females seem to have better body proportions than males.

#4

KatieEighty's analogy on playing Rose especially in light of the reset. She was trying to get me to play Guild Wars instead. (I edited out my "noooooo", "rofl", and "lol".)

#5

Kupfel being a perv1.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

1 OK, I'm kidding. But that sure is one incriminating shot. =p

Eldeon #01

The third planet is finally out.

Eldeon.

It costs 20K to go there from Junon1 (talk to Alphonso) and 13K to go from Luna2 (talk to the station guide in the west). Of course, you pay the same fee to go back to the respective areas.

The lvl requirement for Eldeon is lvl 90. But to actually survive there... lvl 120? It's like Luna. Sure you can go there at lvl 40, but you'd just keep dying every time you hit something.

OK, here's some pictures for the map of Refuge Xita. There are two more maps on Eldeon -- Shady Jungle and Elemental Swamp, but the latter is incomplete and not uh, exactly open.

And look! Monkey slaves.

They don't look too happy, that's why I call them slaves. That downturned mouth looks even more obvious when you're next to them.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Their master sells Eldeon food:

I included the map here, 'cause a lot of people missed this particular spot and NPC.

On the whole, the NPCs don't talk much. Or when they do, they give hints of quests to come. And that's about it.

They have Union representatives on Eldeon, like Junon Order Elder Patrick.

However, the union shops are empty and disappointing.

I found this rather interesting though:

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Now some pictures of monsters...

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

The first one's of Kupfel and me getting pwned by Warbees and Honets. They look like the Hornets of Elveroon Desert, but don't be fooled. Their names are purple to me, and even to Kupfel. He's lvl 111.

Nepenthes move very slowly; most convenient when you're running for your life. -_-;;

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Yeah, you read that right. It's a Hooker. ._. There's also King of Hookers in Shady Jungle. =3

OK, one final shot I really like:




1 Junon = first planet

2 Luna = second planet
