One-Fifth There

This guy really has what I want. Five high rabbits.

I can do it too...

I don't think I will evolve them yet though. I'm hoping to get them to 45. That's what my title means. If pets need the same experience to level up as a player, four times the experience necessary to get to 30 is equivalent of level 30 to 45.

4 * (exp 1 - 30) = 1 * (exp 30 - 45)

It's strange how my lowest level one has the most hp and second most mp. I'm assuming it has the lowest experience because it died the most. It appears the tougher the workout, the more hp/mp a pet gets.

Lastly, imagine if High Rabbits could do this spell. It looks like a cone of cold destroy.

First, some funniness from pledge.

Next up ... this guy already has what I want.
I talked to this guy for a bit. He said level 5 high rabbit is much stronger than level 30 normal rabbit. He said high rabbit get +2 sp. Also, normal rabbits regen at 5 mp per tick and high rabbits regen at 10 mp per tick.

Current status of my rabbits.

I found 2 beagles for 200a each and 1 beagle for 4k, and I'm earthline, so I thought, what the hell. Elemental falldown + these babies aren't bad.

Dragons!

First, Valakas was up at about 11 AM EST. I didn't go, but thanks to a pledge member for sending me some pictures. Only drops I know are TQD and Bzel.




Fafurion was called up at around 1:30 PM (thanks Sleepy for the tip). PlayBoy was trying to beat TroopofHawks pledge to it. While we were immuning in front of Fafurion's lair, TroopofHawks showed up. I guess they finished immuning already, because all they did was berserkers (o.O), advance spirit, str/dex, and went in. PlayBoy didn't go in until about 2 minutes later. Lastly, it only took about four minutes to kill Fafurion. Kinda weak if you ask me. Only drop I know is Bzel.

Attacking Fafurion

I think this is Fafurion's freeze attack

Pictures

Bah, too lazy to organize these. I'll just write short captions.

My pets

Oum Storage Dwarf During Siege

Gate 1

My Old Pets

Breaking In, Lots of Dark Elf Guards

Gate 3

I saw this rabbit deep in fv, and I ressurected it. It didn't bounce around so I guess it was someones. I hope that guy claimed it. Sad day when someone loses his pet..

Episode 4!

Wow what an interesting turn of events...

I can't post any pictures right now, but here's what I've been up too:

When I got home Friday, I logged on right away to test my killer rabbits. They were level 15 or so at the time and man oh man were they strong! I was killing everything in FV in one to two seconds. I never even noticed an "increase in FV monster strength" because my killer rabbits were dropping everything so fast.

I decided to do some real testing and I asked some pledge members to help. Before, episode four, I had my 5 rabbits hit a level 63 DE with 100% MR. I barely saw his HP bar move before my rabbits ran out of MP. During episode four, I tested them out (they were level 16-22 I believe) on him again. This time, he couldn't keep up with the damage without using inventory pump trick. All the other level 55+ members I tested on were chicken and started using inventory pump right away. =P Too bad I couldn't test with elemental falldown...

Another amazing aspect is how long they attack for now. I never counted how many shots they get, but the barrage seems to last for 10 seconds at full MP. There are a lot of drawbacks as to using pets to try to kill people, but my summary is: if someone attacks you with his pets,
Option 1: Venz
Option 2: Die

I bought triple shot and elemental falldown. Triple shot is an okay spell, but I'm disappointed at how much it misses. I like it though because I finally appear on par with mage and dark elf, that is, I have a move to kill a monster faster.

Elemental falldown is actually pretty cool. I tested with a pledge member and my average damage was 25. With elementfal falldown on, my damage was 50. It's not a lot because I only have 12 int... but imagine an int elf with 19 int! I heard the tactic to use is earth bind, elemental falldown, erase magic, wait, wait, unfrozen, erupt, erupt, erupt, erupt, dead!

New areas... forget them. Why does NC keep adding areas that are not bookmarkable? I have better things to do then spend time on a boat... e.g. train my killer rabbits. BTW, I did try to tame racoons with my 18 CHA but I failed twice, got bored, and left PI.

Now for the fun part... The day off from school yesterday was really cool because of Diad siege!

It was amazing to be in Giran and join a pledge with the servers finest, from level 49 to 72. The screenshot I have with the highest number is 113.

Breaking down the gates was easy enough, but once inside... The spawn of dark elf guards was really high. A lot of people either venzed or died because of getting paralyzed (anyone can fill me in on how that happens?) I died and ended up in oum village. It was funny to see how everyone from the lowest to highest level were there. Even Diad siege is tough for a level 72. It was great to see the leadership of Takeda and the determination of everyone else. Even though the trek down to Diad Castle was a long one, people made the trip, centralized the attack, and finally took the castle. Unfortunately, I had to log so I couldn't see the end. Congratulations to everyone for a job well done though! .

Well that's all for now, sorry I couldn't post any screenshots, maybe I'll put a few select ones up later in the week.

Buy New Elf Items!

Well I can't log on until Friday (and woot, 3 day weekend), so might as well hope people visit this site and give me price checks, or if you're even nicer, give me priority on buying items? :-D

I'm looking for:
Spirit Crystal: Triple Shot (obviously)
Spirit Crystal: Elemental Falldown
Spirit Crystal: Erase Magic

Initial pricechecks are much appreciated. ^^

I would also love to hear about PKing tactics, so please take time to comment about those too.

See you all in game this weekend.

Weekly Post

It's very hard to post when I can't play Mon-Thurs (because of school), so I'm forced to become a weekly poster. Fortunately, I always have some content.

Here's some colorfulness from Saturday's Kent siege. It was the first Kent siege I've been to since beta.












Does it usually take until dusk to take down a gate? Two minutes after they took it down, siege
was over.

I went to Giran DM Saturday night. Those mages are crazy... they used blizzard during the whole third round. Monsters dropped fast. Those boss Succubus Queen at the end were tough though. There were four of them, and each one literally took five minutes to kill. Someone said best drop was res scroll. What a waste.









Lastly, progress of my wolves:












To celebrate, I took them up to 41f to try them out. In short, ever heard the sound of four wolves dying at the same time? Only two were still level 19 after that escapade.

Event Is Over

Yeah, there's still reindeer collar, santa belt, and snowman ring left, but event is basically over for me because school starts tomorrow. Now I get to look back at what I accomplished, look ahead for new goals, and think about all the homework I didn't do over this break. At least there is 12 hours left until my first class of the new year.

For the new year, I hope I can gain more focus and raise my pets up. My wolves are still doing well for me:


But, as you can see, only 1 leveled up since my last picture.

It's hard to decide what to level between my wolves and these:



Both are equally fun but wolves make me more money... for now.

New year, new pledge.

I couldn't resist joining. This was one of the first pledges I ever joined back when I started playing LoA. I don't know why, but something about that emblem attracts me. For the past year, I've been joining pledges with relatively new players, as in people who have played for a year or so, or who played beta and came back, and the game is somewhat new to them. I feel like I've matured enough as a Lineage player that I should move on to a stronger pledge. I think I will be happy in PlayBoy.


But to all SkyWarriors, I will remember all of you

Happy New Year!

First of all, Happy New Year everyone! and especially to those who are also class of '06, this is a special year. ^^

Anyone ever heard of the book Bible Code? According to that book, a code in the bible says 2006 is the end of the world. So watch out. =)

Anyways, on to Lineage!

Hunting around again and I accidentally ran into a griffon convention, led by their shrewish leader, the harpy. (Did you know harpy meant shrewish women?)


I didn't mess... I just walked away.

Look at what FI drake dropped me!

Yea yea, you know that's real drake. I was screwing around with my cousin's mage and I decided to go to DVC 6f, and once I teleported to DDR, there they were! I only managed to sunburst one of them 8 times, the other one died before I could land one. I was surprised I got eight lines. That was C-zel by the way.

And finally, it's been a long time since I seen this.
