Project Phoenix 4.0:

 

Horizon:

A lot of SP Farming, kind of boring without event. Met all kind of players while SP Farming, some of them are kind of aggressive. One Titan named Cyric rather destroy the Stone with Hidden Treasure without the Treasure Map than to let me get the Treasure Chest just because he doesn't want me at Hunter Drenior spot, not sure what is the rationale behind his logic but I don't think he will go far in life. Some players try to chase me away by kill stealing my mobs and disrupt my SP Farming, but since I am already there first I choose to ignore them and continue SP Farming at a slower rate.

Most of them will realized that it is not efficient when we are disrupting each other and will give up and left after a while, and since I am not really rushing to complete my Project Phoenix I don't really bother about their harassment. Some will be like me and go to another spot when we see someone is already there, although the other spot are not that good but it still ok without much issues. Been seeing a few players riding around in mount, not sure if they are looking for treasure or raid boss.

Overall both treasure and raid boss give good rewards, and it is an additional bonus when we do SP Farming. I notice that the amount of treasure and drop rate seem to be related to the number of players on that channel, usually I get more treasure and better drop rate on Channel 2 and 3 where a lot of players log their alternate and AFK for attendance. But some treasure location are really unable to access, not sure why they make it that way.

Most of those toon which are going to be Level 120 or higher I will be using Jump Box directly after turning Phoenix, it will help to save time and also Experience Stuffs for later use. I could have get them to Level 50 to complete the Guardian System and get the Certificate of Guardianship, but I find that I can always use another new toon to farm for that as I had proven it in Guardian of the Galaxy. Usually they will require two Certificate of Guardianship, one for Merchant Profession and one for learning Soul Skill for their class.

Horse mange to reach Level 55 and 41, guess those harassing pet leveler are just wasting their time. They are not going to get horse cheap and they can't level their own, so it will be just another vicious cycle of jealousy and resentment. Manage to sell 11K of XPB at 2m each and make 22B yesterday, manage to sell Max Level Phoenix Ticket at 5B each and some Lucky Spell Book at 200M each and make 7B today. I still got more than 600B worth of stuffs for sales and I will just spend it all on buying useless stuffs to help with the economy.

So far I had brought more than 20 Character Expansion Card even though I might not need them, also 20 Pet Name Tag which I don't think I will ever use. But some stuffs I will be using on the future like 30K of Heaven Stone Grade 5, 65 x Level 14 Chaos Coral, 4.5K of Iludeteirun Summon Book, a good example is the 45 x Phoenix Ticket which I had use 32 of them on my new toons. The Upgrade Stone and Jewels are waiting for the events before I complete the gears set for those toon above Level 120, and I only need to do 6 but I had prepared for 10.

And since I got so many Heaven Stone Grade 5, I could just make all the gears set to +30 for all my lower level toons too. I had seen some players making Level 1 +30 sets just for fun, but I usually just make those Level 29 or higher so that I can change to other class if I need. But since I already got some good gears set for some of the toon which I am using more often, I could just transfer them to other toons when I need them. I still got one full spare set of +30 Weapon from Level 29 to Level 149 which can to switch to any class, I think I should be ok for a very long period of time.

Since I had complete my collection of +30 Weapon and Armor for most of my toons, I don't think I got much stuffs to spend on. I had been keeping most of my stuffs and took a long break of about 1.5 years from Merchant Mode since the economy turn bad, but I had recently resume back to selling some stuffs as I had seen a lot of players need them. I think most of the OG players should have 10x or 100x more than me but I am not sure if they are doing the same or just continue to keep it till the economy become better, so far from the look of thing now I would say about 50% are doing so.
