Systematic Approach:

 

Aphelion:

Manage to Level Up from Level 168 to 185 in 5 days, manage to get Peacock Wing which boost Pet XP. Never knew can equip 5 Rune, always thought Rune will take the Accessories Slot. My Combat Power is about 500 with +28 Gear, it increase to about 700 after I did Reforge. Now with 5 Rune equip it went up to about 1000.

Manage to level 6 P2 Pet for sale in just 2 days, spend the remaining time trying to level my P1 Pet from Level 80 to Level 130. It only take a few hours to get it to Level 80, but it take a few days to get it to Level 130. With the Peacock Wing which give 471% Pet XP, it reduce the time require by half. Now I just need to get a Rune which boost Pet XP, also need to get Level 185 Weapon and Armour Set.

Horizon:

Manage to get my Windy Toon to Level 50 and become Merchant, using the 120 Jump Box it became Level 120 instantly. The Level 120 Weapon and Armour Set had very good seals, the only problem is cannot be trade or store. I continue to level the Healer who I plan to use for Holy Bless, will level the Mage I plan to use for Haste after I level the Healer to Level 50 to get Merchant and use the 120 Jump Box.

Not sure if I should use the remaining 2 more 120 Jump Box or sell it for some gold to buy +30 Weapon. If I am going to use it, it will be the two Phoenix Toon of Royal Knight and Assassin. The Royal Knight will level to Level 164 for farming at Tairan, the Assassin will level to Level 128 for farming at Floriam Cave. The Cleric for Holy Bless will be level to Level 150 for Mondshine and Skeleton General, while the Witch for Haste will be level to Level 70 to replace the Kami Killer. one of the Windy Toon will be level to Level 175 for Ramslo and Elemental Boss.

The Kami Killer will be level to Level 87 to farm on Egeha, it will also become the Goldie Hunter. Will be using 3 Night Shadow at Level 98, 108 and 117, Level 98 will be use for farming at Lust Trum and Akan Temple Hard. The Level 108 will be wearing the Cube Explorer Set and farm in Theo Tomb, the Level 117 will wear the Cube Conqueror Set and farm in Streiana and Bloodymir.

 

Once I got everything completed, I will be able to farm for anything at different level. I had been planning for this few months back before the migration and had been collecting all the necessary stuffs I need before the migration. Now I just slowly fulfilling all the things I had planned until I get bored of the game, I just hope this day will not come so soon.

All Road Lead To Rome:

 

Horizon:

Insect Collection Event had come to and end, they will be starting the Element of Iris. Foxy had been pestering me to stay at Aphelion, but I told him I can only do it after the Insect Collection Event end. Manage to get 333 Chaos Smelting Stone, never expect god to be so close with 3 more than me. I had been facing connection issue due to IP Block, had been using VPN to connect for the past one week.

Aphelion:

If there are no interesting event like Insect Collection, Fall, Mooncake or Anniversary, I would be more keen on playing at Aphelion as the rewards are better. They are going to start a Summer Event soon, I hope it will be as good as the Easter Event. The Level Cap for P1 Pet had increase from 80 to 130, been trying to level pet for the past 2 days. Foxy manage to max 4 pets in just a day, Krystael show me the Wing and Rune which increase Pet XP.

Never expect the Rune as additional 5 slots for good status boost, as the big slot show Charm I thought it is the Protection Charm from Item Mall. The 4 slots under the pet also very faded and hard to notice, so I thought Rune will be using the Accessory Slot all this time. Manage to get 2 Rune cheap to try out, one boost attack while the other boost status.

Still in progress of getting my other windy toon to get merchant so that some item will be tradable, got to level a lot of pet on Aphelion as Foxy brought most of it and need to restock. Might try to complete all the quest at the four realms, but will try to complete all the weekly and daily quest first. I will start my Phoenix Toon after I get merchant for the other windy toon, at least I already try out the path o Aphelion to confirm some info.

Epic Party:

 

Horizon:

Been collecting insect for the past one week, manage to get 132 Chaos Smelting Stone. god manage to get 156 Chaos Smelting Stone, I got a 12 Chaos Smelting Stone head start but he had over took me from day 3 onward and had been ahead of me by 30 more ever since. My farming rate drop from the 30 per day to 21 and later 12 as compare to the previous event, one of the main reason is the new Treasure Chest Location are really hard to find and hard to reach.

A lot of players had been looking forward to the Epic Party which Fawkes had been promising for a month ago, but it is a disappointment as it is not as Epic as the one we use to have before the Server Migration. They are having 400% Experience and Skill Point, 200% Drop Rate and 200% Pet Experience for 4 days from Friday 28th Apr to Monday 1st May, they will be having 200% Upgrade and 400% Jewel Event on Friday and Monday from 1300 hrs to 1600 hrs.

There will be Artifact Event on Sat and Sun and Game Master Buff at 1200 hrs, a lot of players are very excited about it but I am only glad that they extend the Insect Collection Event by another week. I hope they will be having Fall Event soon as there are high demand for Booster, and hopefully they will have better Upgrade and Jewel Event in the near future.

As the timing of the event is Europe Time, is will mostly happen during my sleep hours. And since the Jewel Event is only good for Level 5 Jewel, my Element Jewel will have to wait. I also not planning on doing any upgrade of my gear as it is not worth the effort, instead I give some Grade 5 Heaven Stone to Avatar to help him with his Weapon as he does not have much gold.

Lego also looking for Heaven Stone Grade 5, the price had raise from 150M to 240M in just a day after the announcement for Upgrade Event is confirmed. I actually offer to sell him the Heaven Stone at the same 120M which I brought from him before the Server Migration but he insist he should pay 150M instead. He is very grateful for all the help I offer and ask if there are any way he would be able to repay my kindness, I told him to let me know whenever he is selling his Heaven Stone so that I will be able to restock it for the next upgrade event.

I had start buying Skill Book and Monster Combo Accessory as they are cheap, Skill Book price drop from 200M to about 50M and Monster Combo Accessory drop from 1B to 3B to about 200M to 500M. I only buy those with HP Steal, and now I got so many of them until even my Farming Toon are also wearing it. I also brought those without HP Steal and price about 50M to try the combination, but so far it doesn't really turn out well with any good seal.

Aphelion:

Foxy brought all my Rune Ore, I suddenly became very rich overnight. I decided to buy some good Accessory which will help in killing monster, mange to complete my first quest at the Four Realm and gain some Experience. I had been killing Experience Boss and Easter Bunny and Chicken for the pass one month to gain three level, now I can slowly level my toon to Level 185 when I find the time after the Insect Collection Event.

Also manage to sold a lot of pet too, I can still level Horse and Drake Away From Keyboard but I still need to find time to Level Panda and Ichi for Sales again. Sold a lot of Pet Experience Potion during the 200% Pet Experience Event over the Weekend, I manage to save the better stuffs for my own use and sell those which I don't really need. I had become a Multi Trillionaire within a few days, but it is still nothing as compare to being a Multi Billionaire on the Official Server.

Happiness is a Journey:

 Horizon:

A lot of unhappiness among the players after the migration of the server, some is having issue creating account, some is having issue installing the game, some is having issue with lost toons, lost pets and lost items. The stability of the server is also a major issue which had affect a lot of players on the first few weeks, and what add on to the unhappiness is the increase in price of the stuffs which is affected by the server merge and item mall pricing.

They had forgotten about their love for the game, they had forgotten what they enjoy most about the game. They keep holding on to the past and keep saying how Skill Point Farming is so much easier and how the price of stuffs had been cheaper. They do not have the patient to wait for the publisher to fix the issues, they do not have the heart to help new players to enjoy the game.

Only a few players still trying their best to help new players, and I am always there to support them in any way I can. Beamer had been trying to get Horse Mount for new players, and since I don't really need that many Horse Mount I give him a few for free to repay his kindness which he had shown me earlier. Elvis and Mother Nature still giving Windy Buffs whenever they can, but they seem to be busy and doesn't really log on to game very often.

Krystael Dagger had been teaching others with her knowledge and experience of the game, and I had give some Lucky Scroll and Tool Aid to Avatar to help with his farming and crafting. Avatar had decided to change his name to The Ancient One, and he had been buying Gems so that he will be able to earn gold fast. As he is the only one getting stuffs from the Item Mall, he became the popular guy like what Diesel use to be.

It is not about how rich you are, how high level you are or how many good stuffs you have. I had been able to achieve a lot when I play Aphelion Server, but that doesn't really make me happy at all. I still enjoy playing Low Level where I don't really need to spend much and still able to farm a lot of stuffs to help other. It is only a Chicken and Egg thing, no point bothering about which actually came first as it will never have a conclusion.

 

The economy of the game is also a double side effect, if some players start selling their stuffs at high price they will also have to buy stuffs from other players at higher price too. The only solution is to get more new players to farm for more stuffs so that the supply and demand will achieve a balance. The Social Economy can actually be explain with a Mining Towns Example, and a lot of people will be surprise that it is actually applicable to many other area in real life other than the game.

There are two Mining Town, one decided to invest the money to develop the town building school, pub, medical facility. The people who work there are happy and see a better future, so they decided to bring their family to live with them. In short time the town boom and develop into a big city as there are more people to contribute and share the resources.

The other town is the opposite where is remain as a run down town with no facility, the people there does not have a sense of belonging and start to leave after they serve their purpose there. From the above example we can see that whether a game thrive or end mainly depend on the population of the players and how the publisher handle the issues. It will be a win win situation if people had a sense of belonging and decide to contribute to help build a strong community which make everything better over time.

New Beginning, Easter Event:

 

Horizon:

It had been about two weeks since the server start, the first week had been chaos with a lot of missing toons, missing pets, missing stuffs and missing golds.  I was not affected by the missing toons or missing pets, but I am affected by the missing stuffs and everybody is affected by the missing golds. To my surprise they decided to merge the server despite the fact that they promise to keep everything as it is before the migration, it is kind of good for me as I don't have to split my time between both servers and suddenly got a lot of stuffs from other server which I am unable to sell.

I spend the first week organizing my toons and stuffs, and finally able to start enjoying the game when they start the Easter Event on the second week. As it take 24 hours to completely delete my old toons to free up the slot before I can create new toons, and most of the toons I am going to delete are the repeated ones from the other server. The server lag, time out error and constant disconnection had made the whole progress more difficult as by the time I manage to log on to my toon the other toon will have disconnected.

Finally mange to figure out that those non popular channel like 1, 4 and 6 are much easier to get in as compare to those popular channel like 2, 3 and 5. Guess all my farming toons will be getting Blue Name by the time I complete their setup by the end of the Easter Event. The Trading Agent is back and it had been a great help in selling stuffs due to the server stability issues, they had resolve the missing toons, missing pets, missing stuffs and missing golds issues but they remove the Ace of Diamond instead.

Before I even got my golds and stuffs back, I already manage to sell some of the stuffs and got back about the same amount of  golds. I even give away a lot of stuffs too, to help and repay the kindness which others had shown me. I give three horse mount to Beamer as I realise I don't really need that many of it, I give all my Moonstone to Mother Nature as she really like the play with the slot machine. I give Avatar a lot of Lucky Scroll and Tool Aids which should be able to last him a few months.

Aphelion:

The private server had start the Easter Event a few days early than the original server, the rewards for the quest are much better as usual when compare with the original server. They also organize a lot of events over the weekends in an effort to attract more players to stay with them, and there are also a lot of new players joining within that few days. A few of them seem to be the Alternates of Lorena as they continue to beg for free stuffs, even though the way they do it are slightly different but you can easily notice as the motive are the same.

The first one was named DylaN, he is using the same method of waiting at store keeper and asking others to give him stuffs which others doesn't want anymore. When I expose his real identity he keep denying and later change another toon with different name and try different method. The other one is LEVI which claim he is unable to kill Newbie Hunter at Level 21 and request for my help. Then later switch to THANOS which claim he need a Pet for pick up, I gave him a Two Head Canine which is very good like the Chameleon and  Golden Carriage which I gave Lorena before.

Just a day later I saw him trying to sell it at almost twice the market price, then another toon named BaltoN appear and keep wanting to buy all kind of stuffs but only offer ten percent of the market price. He keep claiming that he is new and don't have much golds, but all the stuffs he want are very premium and good stuffs which I myself cannot even afford. Some players actually took pity on him and start giving him a lot of stuffs for free, I can also do the same but it will not really help him or do him any good.

There are no poor players, only the lazy one. If they can't even farm stuffs to sell, they are just going to be a beggar all their life. They always claim they don't have so much time to play, but they still wasting most of their time standing around doing nothing. If they had so much difficulty playing such an easy game, they might as well quit and make life better for everybody. Even if they manage to get a lot of free stuffs and sell it to become rich, they will never go far both in game or in life as they do not have the knowledge and experience.

Heart Breakers

 

 

Aphelion:

Got bored after finish all the Gold Booster farming gold from Lilit, switch back to farming Skill Book in Tomb. After knowing some other players also having the same idea, I decided to try hunting Boss for a change. Manage to kill 5 Dead Drake in Juno for a quest, so decided to find some other Boss like the Cash at Egeha and Exp Boss in Tairan for the quest.

 

Discover a few interesting Boss along the way, one that really surprise me is the Gold Boss at Dratan at coordinate 441 2347 which drop about 5 to 6 Gold Sachet. It spawn every 5 mins and I can farm about 20B to 30B in an hour. The other Boss named Ruler of Dratan at coordinate 2339 1110 which is together with Baal also drop Pet Collars and Pet XP Stuff, but the drop rate is bad as I have not seen any drop of Pet Collar even after a few hours of hunting.

The Ruler of Dratan Boss also doesn't spawn every 5 mins like what they stated in Discord Guide, it is more like 10 mins to 15 mins. The other Cash Boss in Egeha is a bit harder as it cause a lot of damage, the 100 Cash drop is also not that impressive. The Stat Point Boss in Strayana is good at early stage, but I had already max out my Status Point so it is not that useful to me any more. So I will remain a Gold Digger and prey on the Rich Gold Boss from now, should be able to become a Multi Trillionaire in just a few days.

Batman Vs Superman Dawn of Justice:

 

 

Aphelion:

It is the Final Count Down, just a few days before the Official Game is back. I decided to start selling my stuffs cheap, maybe will be able to become a Multi Trillionaire in few days. There is a player named Lorena who keep claiming she is new and begging for free stuffs, but a lot of players start to realize it is a Cry Wolf Story after some time. A lot of players had already give her a lots of stuffs but she claim she doesn't remember it, so now a lot of players start to ignore her completely.

It kind of remind me of my Pinoy 3rd Engineer, always Happy Go Lucky and spending all his money. I had help him get $50 by giving him a receipt for buying DVDs for Xmas, but he spend it away on girl on the next call in Mexico. He later told me that he saw a very nice camera and wanted to buy it before he went home, but I am not going to lend him the money for it as I know I will never get it back. I told him that he should not have expectation if he is unable to afford it, but my words will just blown away by the wind.

It is like I had an apple and I always give it to a friend, then one day I feel that somebody else need it more than him. But he will keep thinking that the apple actually belong to him, he will never appreciate the kindness and will start to turn against me the moment I stop giving him the apple. They got a lot of pride in them, if you praise them they will be very nice toward you. But the moment you start to tell them about their mistakes, they will become your worst enemy.

This game is already easy, you can get all the stuffs you need just by doing quest. Even for other games you will still be able to survive if you work hard and farm stuffs to sell, so doesn't matter whether which game you play you will never go far if you just sit around and beg for free stuffs. For that matters I had decided to write a simple guide for newbie to follow so that they can enjoy the game, it might be a bit different from the official guide on Discord as you doesn't really get to enjoy much of what the game got to offer.

When you start the game you will already get a good amount of gold of about 5M, you also get a newbie Title which give good boost and a Newbie Box with +20 Gears and three good accessory. There are also some potions and boosters which will help you along the way but I prefer to save it for later. You go to the Quest Manager to accept the Newbie Quests which will give you all the stuffs you need all the way until Level 165.

The first quest you can complete is to kill Fox and Sasquatch, I will recommend to wait until you are Level 31 and get the next +20 Gear Set before you try to kill the Level 185 Newbie Hunter at the center of the map at Burbank Mill. Although I am able to do it at Level 16 with Level 5 Ignition, but it I did fail when I try it at Level 7 as I am unable to cause much damage.

 

After completing the first quest, you will get a Premium Character Package, as it only last for 30 days I would recommend to use it when you are ready to do Tomb. Usually I would prefer to farm for some Pictorial Book stuffs, will hunt in Juno until Level 20 and go to Dratan until Level 31. I will do Merac until Level 53 and then go to Dratan again until Level 57, you will get another +20 Set at Level 42. 

 

Getting a P2 Pet with 70K Status will be a good choice, if not any other pets with 7K or 5K Status would be good enough too. You can get Protection and Counter Strike Target Arrow from Pet Merchant to let the Pet AI help with combat, can consider Item Search too if you want it to pick up stuffs.

After getting the next +20 Set at Level 57, you can consider doing Temple of Forgetfulness to Level Pet and SP Farm. The next map to do is Egeha when you reach Level 70, it will be good to use some booster to farm gold from Level 88 Cursed Weaver and you will get your +20 Set at Level 87. You can now consider using the Premium Character Package and do Tomb to complete your next quest.

Set Auto Pick Up to Other as those weapon and armor drops can't sell for gold at NPC, it will pick up key and token but you will still have to pick up some other stuffs like Moonstone Box, Heaven Stone or those really good stuffs from God Hand. You can level up to Level 110 at the Tomb, the next recommendation to Level 145 will be Floriam Cave over Trival Crayon as you can complete the next quest and farm gold from Lilit. You will get your +20 Set at Level 121, don't have to worry about the Durability of the Gears as it doesn't really affect in this game. You can use Golden Magnifying Glass to get the Hidden Seals which will help a bit.

You will be able to use the Exp Tonic with Estella to gain about 12 Levels, but the Tonic will only work from Level 50 to Level 150. There is a better Tonic which work from Level 150 to Level 160, you can choose to use  it for easy leveling or just enjoy the process of farming for more stuffs. With Platinum Blessed Iris and Exp Booster it will not take much time to level up, using the Tonic will level up within few minutes but killing mobs will only take about 2 days.

From Level 145 onward you can choose between Tairan and Misty Crayon, there is a quest to complete at Tairan at the Middle of the map but you need to get your +20 Set at Level 157 before you can survive Middle Tairan. Chaser at Misty Crayon will be easier and faster as compare to Seeker and Rawhead at Tairan, just complete the quest to get the Level 165 Set and spend the rest of the time on Misty Crayon until you reach Level 165.

Now you get the Level 165 Set, you just have to upgrade it to +16 using Rune and Protection and +28 using Master Stone. You can get some Jewel to meld on to it for more boost, but I would recommend getting a Phoenix Ticket which is cheaper and more efficient. You can farm for AOE Skill Book with Skill Master at Tomb, they will drop Legendary Scroll which give 7 Sockets and also +10 Status Point. You can max out the Status Point to 2.5K, you can also start killing Level 200 Raid Boss in Juno and Dratan.
