Weapons Of Mass Distraction!

Bored! If anyone wants to be able to post here, send me a message in game. So here's a small sampling of my arsenal... I think I told Darkenedelf I'd share these.

Oh blue hair! I'm 32 years old and I still do this occasionally. Pay no mind to the clean shaven face... Lol.

Ancient Giant and 'IsI' the Pathetic Bot Farmer

Arcades, Godfathers, BloodOmen and myself had the most perfect timing the other day. We teleported to TOI and found the Ancient Giant right outside the entrance. Many thanks to Godfathers for calling us up for this. Also, I hope he returns back to the game. :(


As you can see below, the drops weren't great. Also many thanks to BloodOmen for the heals and immune spells. My best estimate is that the AG ended in 1-minute, or less! Shows you what 3 52+ melees can do when they are teamed up with a good healer.


In addition to this fun...I've been running into an extremely annoying healbot + melee team in DVC6. The healer is IsI and the melee is Jo0l (2nd 0 is a zero). Whenever you run into a team like this, always attack the mage first. If you attack the melee you will never win because he/she will continue to be healed. The consequences of initiating this kind of action are seen below. I think that's the lowest my law has ever dropped after a single kill. Anyone know what controls the law value after a PK? Hehe. I have no problem going chao on jerks like this. I'd gladly do it again.

2x EXP Event + Some Junk!

2x EXP Event has come and gone... I managed okay, going from level 53 at 54% to level 54 at 15% - total gain of about 61%. I can just imagine how the bots made out. Not only did I get 54, but my brother Seufor got to 50 finally.

The event even ended with a somewhat better than average drop for a change.

And finally some shots of random bosses I found in my screenshots folder, some of these are a bit old, but here ya go.

An ER Hunt Pays the Bills

Location: Elemental Ruins, Pirate Island
Party: Arcades, Hunlikehorse, Kwami, Tachyon
Drops: Glove of Ice Spirit, Mithril Dagger, SC: Exotic Vitalize, Black Blood Stone, Relic of Eva

Potpourri: Kwami - didn't die. Arc - lag-swinging. Hunlikehorse - best heal 'bish' any melee could ask for. Tachyon - ran out of MP (all 45).

Toi 21 - 30 Pledge Hunt

Members: Scorpio04[banned], DarkenedElf, TachyonMan, Naitale, Aniraldo, Katoro, Ikubi, and Labrinna.

This was my first (and failed) attempt at taking a group photo. Took me too long to hit the printscreen button and i missed all the "cheese"s.


My second attempt was worst than the first. Somehow I managed to open the community menu. Almost got us all killed by an ifrit in the process.. lol.


This one is a nice shot of everyone who made it to 30f with me. Gratz all! ^^

---Hunt Breakdown---
Best Drops: Bkat; 31f scroll(s)

Progress Summary:
Ikubi got stuck and venzed on 22f.

Labrinna and Scorpio04[banned] got separated from the group on 27f and Labrinna venzed. Scorp used a 31f scroll. o.O;

After that, a mob killed DarkenedElf on 30f, TachMan had to leave and it was down to Ani, Katoro, and Myself. Ani venzed when pots ran out. As did Kat. I lasted about 5 more min before a Demon forced me to venz as well.

All in all.. a great time.

Kwami is a Goth!!!

Kwami is into goth... what the hell? I guess it's true. Just call him Kwamira, Manstress of the Dark now!

New Tattoo

New tattoo gun = new tattoo lol.

Twin Earrings!

Proof that I spend way too much time in the Temple of Shadows...



w00t! Twin Earrings! I took the risk of using 10 fragment of soul stones for another trip to the earring giver without knowing my karma points. I did a rough estimate that I kill about 85 Priest of Chaos per hunt and I probably hunt their on average 5 times per day. My guess at having enough karma for the lvl 2 earrings worked. ;)

Happy hunting!

@ The Office

When I wish I was playing Lineage...I sit here:


Notice the USB Rocket Launcher on top of the cube wall. I use this to assault my neighbors.

Now we just wait for Kwami to post limo pics.

Earrings That Make You Shake That Thang

The other day I completed the quest to get Dancing Earrings, which give -1 AC. w00t! The following is a short guide and screenshots of the process.

First off, don't let people tell you that you need 1000 Fragment of Soul Stone and a Head of Chaos and all that exaggerated crap. That quantity of frags and the head is for the charm that allows you to advance to the next (2nd) floor in the Temple of Shadows. From what I've heard, that area is a world of hurt. We're talking Compton during a power outtage. Not sure if anyone on LoA has even made it there yet...although I think it's possible as long as one can purchase all of those items.

What you need is KARMA. What is karma? Hell if I know! But I DO know that you need to hunt Priests of Chaos in the Temple of Shadows (ToS) in order to acquire enough of it. I would estimate that I hunted ToS for about 10-15% experience (lvl 53) solo. Make note of that: solo. I've heard that karma does not split if partied. The other estimates I've heard are that it equates to something like 4,000-6,000 monsters in ToS. The amount of karma per monster probably depends on the type: walking/flying/horse, in that increasing order.

Once you gain enough karma, you speak to the Agent of Varlok in the far top/right corner of the 1st Floor Temple of Shadows. He will speak to you like so:


If you do not have enough karma he'll just say something rude. ;)

If you pay the Agent of Varlok 10 Fragments of Soul Stone he will transport you to the area where you will be rewarded with the earrings. It looks like this:


Speaking to the Lesser Demon, Varlok's Secretary (All that paperwork being a demon!), on the bottom/right will reward you with what he calls an "amulet":



Accept this offer (Take Amulet) and say "w00000000tels!!!":


And now you've got an extra -1 AC!

Lastly, I'm not sure what the easiest way out of Sanctuary of Evil is, but I don't think you can use an escape scroll. Granted, I don't think I really tried to escape. I ran around until I saw something I could start swinging my sword at.

There was an Incarnation of Varlok waiting across a bridge and around a corner. I decided to start chopping at him with my sword. I did and was doing just fine until a Succubus of Varlok joined in the fun. I was whooped and left as a bloodied corpse.

For my own dignity, I did not take a screenshot of this last scene, but I do have one of myself trying to bust-a-cap into a Varlok. :)


Happy Questing!

Names of Aden

Here's a quick collage of screen captures I have taken of player names I have seen around LOA. I hope you enjoy. BTW, a couple of these have occurred in preceding posts. I figure there is no harm resurrecting them as long as they are funny. Feel free to post your own collection!



Arc: Stay away from the one titled, "Queen" for obvious reasons.

Everyone: Stay away from DarkenedElf's doberman.

Deja Vu With a Different Dragon

Don't try this at home. Unless you enjoy losing XP for the wrong reasons.

Chaos Ensues

A couple screenshots from our run-in with Chaos a few weeks ago. He was pretty difficult, mainly for the fact that he(she?) casts cancel quite a bit. I had to repoly/rebuff a couple of times during the fight.

First: Notice what Kwami does when a powerful boss is on screen (by the name "Chaos" no less!) He has the time to exclaim "OMG" while I'm already swinging my ass off. LOL.


Next: Proof that it really was Chaos. Sorry about the crappy screenshots, but Chaos was sort-of hiding behind a structure.


Last: Chaos ended up dropping 8 Fragments of Soul Stone to Kwami. I got nada. Next time I'm sitting back exclaiming, "OMfG!" Notice the dead knight next to Kwami. 0.0
