Future Planning 3.0:

 Had been busy preparing for the migration, reorganizing my stuffs and did some spring cleaning before the Chinese New Year. I give away a lot of stuffs which I don't use, a lot of players thought I am going to quit. But actually I am stocking up on a lot of stuffs which I will need for the future and had detail planning on how to execute it.

I first give Elvis, Mother Nature and Gonads 9999 Stone of Wise, as I had receive a lot of Windy Buffs from them and by doing so will allow them to continue helping all those who need. I also give Gonads and Heth a lot of Lucky Stone and Chaos Stone, as Heth is a returning player and she need to upgrade her gear and Gonads is always helping other players to upgrade their gears too.

As usual Gonads give me a lot of stuffs in return which I am able to sell for a lot of gold, I use the gold to buy more upgrade stones in case anyone need it in the future. As Heth is from Philippine, I had try to link her up with Bhuto and Chille Black which are also from the same country which I think will be able to help her more.

Give away two Knightmare Mount, one to Avatar as he always wanted a Rare Blue and I find it ugly. The other one give to Cash as he did not have much gold and is trying to get a Level 31 Mount which is cheaper. As I had eight Mount and I only need about five, and got another two to three horse is also almost reach the level to be mount soon.

A returning player from Malaysia name Hannah had been trying to get a Jaguar but she do not have much gold, so I decided to give her the Level 66 Jaguar I got from godsend as I really didn't use it much. I thought she really need the speed buff from the pet but later found out that she only want it because it look cute. I would have recommend her to get a Snow Leo instead as it look much better.

The Level 66 Jaguar given by godsend is mainly because he is looking for two Jaguar Leash and I had already sold my last three to Nanthu. So I decided to give him the three Jaguar which I had level up to level 40, he also give me a lot of gold and some Grade 5 Heaven Stone to make up for it. And I also found out that he is very close to Jassy from Malaysia who always hunt Elemental Boss together, Jassy later also became very close to me after she found out I am from Singapore and give me some Element Jewel which I need.

Hannah seem to be having problem with the game, as she had been away for six years. I found out that Elvis is the one that had help her a lot, so I told Elvis to check what is the actual issue she is facing as she doesn't really seem to be able to tell me what kind of gear she had. Later I heard her saying that Elvis is angry with her for spending all the skill point on upgrading her guild, so I guess she might not have learn any skill and the issue is not with her gears.

She doesn't really seem to be interested in the game and always focus on a lot of unimportant stuffs, she later decided to get one of her Level 12 toon to join my guild for XP Lock so that she can SP Farm. At least that is a major improvement for her as she finally want to make things right. 

My plan for the future is to make two windy toon after the server migration, actually it was suppose to start at the beginning of the year but I decided to hold it back until we move to new server. I will get them to Level 50 for Merchant Profession first, then I will level them up to 100. I will then make two phoenix toon which will jump straight to Level 50 for the Merchant Profession too and make a Night Shadow.

The Night Shadow will be Level 90 and will be use for Monster Combo, Akan Temple and Grand Gold Dragon. I will get one of the Phoenix toon to Level 130 for Floriam Cave to farm Skill Book and the other one to Level 185 for Ramslo and Elemental Boss. I will later make another two toon for Holy Bless and Haste, The Level 150 Cleric will be use for Skeleton General and the Level 70 Witch will be use for Grand Devilroad Kamira and Erebus.

Paying It Forward:

 

Gonads need Erebus Set for Knight, since I am not using soon I might as well let him have it. As there is a Double Experience Point and Skill Point Event on Saturday and 150% Upgrade Event on Sunday from 1200 hrs to 1800 hrs, it will be a good time for him to upgrade the gears. I even give him the 30 Lucky Stone and 15 Chaos Stone which he require to get it to +15.

 

Guess he had some Chaos Stone, Extreme Stone and Heaven Stone for the remaining upgrade, and he give me 10 Advance Grade Reformer and 2B to thank me for the Erebus Set and Upgrade Stones. He doesn't believe that there are nice people who give out stuffs and help other, but I had make him believe in it and he will do the same for other and make this game better for everybody.

Chaos Theory 2.0:

Blue mobs drop some event item like the Rain and Insect, so it will be advisable to complete the Affinity during those events. Personal drops like Treasure Map or Element of Iris cannot be pick up by other players even if you let them, guess Dext didn't know about that when he offer to let me pick up Merac Fire when we first met.

 

Manage to get 96 Chaos Stones on old server during the event, keep 24 for own use and sold the rest at 150M each and earn 10B. Initially most of it was sold to Ashi, later Angel add me to friend list and request to buy all my Chaos Stone and Heaven Stone. Jo ask me to shut up, so I start to play the part of having a silent spell until she decided to let me talk again. Brought 36 Lucky from Admiral at 60M each, spend about 2B.

 

Gonads want to change his horse color, I help him with the color crystal I get from Absolute Zero. He doesn't trust with trading his mount to me as he had been scam before, end up I manage to get a good reputation for helping him. Seem like he is just testing me for my honesty, as he give me a Platinum Adrenaline and Pet Cool Down Remover which is worth a lot in return for my help.

 

Later when I heard him looking for Pet Customization Card, I send it to him as a gift as I got some Iris Cash left. He later give me another Platinum Adrenaline and Pet Cool Down Remover again, guess he is very rich as he is planning to get 2 Elephant and 3 Jaguar so that he can avoid the Cool Down.

 

Manage to get 18 Chaos Stones at new server, but unable to sell it as there are less players. Just keep it for own use and sell my Heaven Stone to raise money for the Merchant Profession. Long Shot seem to be less active recently, he only log in for the attendance. I also adjust my timing to only play during weekdays evening so that I get to meet up with him and chat.

 

I always told him about what happened during my stay at the old server during the weekend, but he seem to be less interested. He use to worry about me when I play in PVP channels, but I told him there are not much players here and nobody will bother to kill me anyway as I did not offended anyone.

 

From my observation, he must have encountered some mishaps in the old server before which make him lose hope and decided to start fresh on the new server. Maybe I am wrong about that, as he seem like he just enjoy helping newbies.

 

Glitch in the Matrix:

An Elite Gandor appear at Burbank Farm, it doesn't move and cannot be attack. A Player is looking for GM to fix it, but I think it is not a big deal as it doesn't really post any threat to low level players.

Had been doing research on Heaven Stone Upgrade, it can be done at Socket Manager NPC. Three Level 1 Heaven Stone can be turn into One Level 2 Heaven Stone, but it is only feasible from +5 to +7 without upgrade event. Anything above that will cost more than Lucky Stone and Chaos Stone, so it is only valuable if there are upgrade event. During upgrade event the success rate can go from 150% to 200%, so it will be worth the value only during upgrade event only.

Heaven Stone:

1 +3 +6 5M to 10M (1.5M to 3M)x

2 +5 +10 (LSS) 15M to 30M (4M to 8M)*

3 +7 +14 (CSS) 40M to 80M (12.5M to 25M)*

4 +9 +18 125M to 250M (40M to 80M)x

5 +11 (LSS) +22 400M to 800M (120M to 240M)x

6 +13 +26 1.2B to 2.4B (350M to 700M)x

7 +15 (CSS) +30 3.5B to 7B (1B to 2B)x

Zedan told Midas of Sweden about the Hide and Seek incident, Midas is willing to honor the promise of the prize from Item Mall. But I do not see anything worth while from the Item Mall, so I decided to let the matter go. But if Beamer is willing to honor the prize of 10B Golds from the Whisper Event, I will be more than willing to take it.

Zedan told me his ways of earning more golds, his method is to farm at Level 65 at Temple of Forgetfulness for Upgrade Stone and Gears, Level 100 at Akan Temple for Gears and Level 140 at Egeha for Skill Books. He also recommend getting the Merchant Profession at Level 50 to 55 as the NPC Sio Committee Manager Watson at Moonshine will give 100% more for the items you sell.

He also highly recommend me to get a P2 Elephant or Jaguar Pet which give 300% Attack Boost or 30% Speed Boost, but it will cost 18B to get it so it is out of my league now. I didn't even have half the amount of 9B as I only left 8B after buying 72 Lucky Stone at 50M each. He told me his Level 23 can kill Level 110 mobs in Tomb and he manage to get his Level 10 to Level 93 in an hour.

He told me that he had a Level 97+15 Weapon for me when I reach that Level, but I think the highest I will ever go is 73. My style of playing is different as I prefer to farm at Level 33 for Grand Balrog, Level 53 for Grand Red Dragon and Level 73 for Grand Devilroad Kamira and Temple of Forgetfulness.

I had never plan for Level 73 as I can kill Grand Devilroad Kamira at 53 base on my previous experience with +15 set. It is the Upgrade Stone and Gears that kind of got me interested in that, but if the killing is too slow and boring until I doze off like when I play the Titan toon I might just go back to low level which I get to enjoy more.

 

Operation Teletubby:

As I do not have Party Recall, I decided to try using the Summon Book.

  

Target Completion:

Finally achieve the target set for 6 Billions, now I can slowly source for my Lucky Stone and Chaos Stone. Another high level player told me that my Magical Mineral price is set too low, so I got no choice but to set it at a higher price from now onward.

Met Level 17 Titan Henrick again at T5 Drake Nest, I try to help him spawn Grand Balrog but fail. There is a AFK Pet Leveler nearby, so Grand Balrog would have already spawn and kill by other player.

I give him a Chain of Tiger Rare Accessory which will help him in both his farming and spawning of Grand Balrog, at least I saw him able to kill Elder Drake from 5 to 6 hits reduce to 3 to 4 hits now. He should level up to 33 like me and he can kill Elder Drake in just 1 to 2 hits.Maybe he thought get better drop when the mob is higher or same level than him, at least he is getting drop from Level 18 Drake too.

I manage to get another Eyes of Spirit Rare Accessory from Grand Balrog later when I switch to other channel, I also notice that I seem to get more Heaven Stone drop and God Hand after that. I guess God or the GM is watching from above, they decided to bless those who do good deed.

 Burbank Farm Hero:

Manage to get the Burbank Farm Hero Title, think I had to kill more than 2500 Elder Drake to get that. Saw Level 82 Boucu Demon at T2 Drake Nest, manage to get ZeDan to help kill it.

Manage to get a Lucky Stone with Gold Token from Laca Ball, I should have do it sooner. My toon in other server manage to get a Lucky Stone and Chaos Stone with Gold Token from Laca Ball too, imagine how many of it I will be having if I do it from the start.

I also should have try for Chaos Stone during the Insect Collection Event, now kind of regret it. The other reason the high level players are buying Wooden Key could have be because of the 4 yearly World Cup Event, it will need Golden Key to open the Festival Box.

I heard the World Cup Event Festival Box give really good stuff, did a search for it and found that most of it are not that interesting. Guess only high level players are crazy about those stuffs, it help them gain more XP and avoid the grinding.

 Friend in High Places:

ZeDan ask if I got any Item Drop Booster, I told him they are selling 600 of it at 3999 IC at the Item Mall. He told me that it is not worth it as it will be about 26.6M per piece at the rate of 1 IC = 4M, usual price is about 12M to 14M and he is willing to pay 15M for it.

I told him I usually got some from Guard Hand, and use it on Grand Balrog. He told me is it a waste as high level are using it for better stuffs with other mob, so I promise him that I will save it up for him from now onward.

He usually can farm about 15 to 20 of them in a day, but I only get about 4 to 5. Sometime if I am lucky, I can get more from Moonstone or Chaos Ball.

Just as we were chatting, a Guard Hand drop Item Drop Booster, Skill Point Booster and two Tool Aid. And the next moment, Grand Balrog also Spawn. What a coincidence, just speaking of the devil and the devil appear.

ZeDan ask me to meet him at T5 Store Keeper Bianca, he give me a Monster Combo Accessory which got two 93 Hit Rate, HP Steal 5% and MP Steal 5%. It is also fused with Level 6 Coral which give HP Boost of 1800 too. On top of that he also give me some of the HP and MP Boost Potion and Health Potion which he doesn't use.

Guess it is good to have friend in high places, they can help you kill high level mob, buy stuff at good price from you and even give you some good stuffs which they doesn't use. Now I just have to level up this toon and start party with them in the future.

Farm Mart:

Upgrade my Guild at Server E to Level 10, Expand the Member Capacity to 73. Also got Guild Skill of SP Buff as recommended by Long Shot. Thought of getting my Pet to Mount but due to some distraction it is still about 2K Experience short.

Also didn't manage to complete my collection of Elements of Iris, so other than Sand of Dratan I still have to collect Rain of Streiana next time round. Even the Snow of Bloodymir also collected about less than 1 percent too.

My stay at Server T will be short this time round as I had already collected about two third of the Snow of Bloodymir during the last time when I first started this toon. Not sure if I should try to level up the Rogue Mercury Venus or should spend more time to collect Element at the other server.

Long Shot manage to spawn Grand Devilroad Kamira at Dratan Harpy Site just outside the gate, she requested me to help her kill it. I am not that confident without the buff from Knightmare Mount, but since she insisted I just got to give it a try.

She got Totem which will help recover my health, but the whole process is very slow with my Level 53 Royal Knight, her Level 90 Night Shadow and her Level 37 Mage. Guess I will still need to charge up my Ignition Gauge and get Knightmare Mount Buff if I want to Solo it next time for a clearer video to replace my old video.

Manage to accumulate the wealth of 7 Billions, but still unable to find any Lucky Stone or Chaos Stone that fit the price range which I am willing to buy. But since I am not urgently needing it, I can just wait a little bit longer and concentrate on my farming business. 

 

Hide and Seek:

Manage to complete my collection of Elements of Iris Items, but when I went to Dratan I found out that Toldar is Missing. I decided to play Rogue Mercury Venus for the weekend, trying to complete Iris Pictorial Book. It was not easy as some items are hard to find, but the rewards are very good.

As I am trying to get Zombie Nail and Skin from Wandering Zombie at Belpist Temple, MidasOfSweden decided to hold a Hide and Seek Event. He will hide somewhere in Juno and the first three players who found him will get to choose any item from the Item Mall Equipment Pages.

The first winner is KILLER and the second winner is CHAMPION, I decide to give it a try as my inventory is full and need to head back town. I teleport to Till The Last of Treant first as it is my favourite location for Operation TeleTubby. The next location I teleport is Ebony Mine as it is also a very remote location, I manage to find MidasOfSweden but he did not accept me as the third winner just because I am low level.

He never announce any third winner after that and end the event, guess all the other players just couldn't be bother. I went to check on the Item Mall Equipment Page and found nothing interesting too, most of them are useless costume and it did not have any upgrade package like the other server which I could use.

I manage to accumulate 8 Billions in just a few days, mainly is because I am selling Lucky Scroll at 5M. At this rate I might be able to get enough gold to buy upgrade stones for two full set of Weapon and Armour. Will start to level up Royal Knight ApolloMars at next update, at the moment I will just try to farm more stuffs to sell. 

 

Lady Luck:

Manage to get Chaos Stone and Lucky Stone from Laca Ball using Gold Token, at this rate I might not even need to buy it from other players.

Guardian of the Galaxy:

 Manage to complete my Apprentice Training, got a Level 49+10 Weapon and Level 48+10 to Level 50+10 Armour Set. Got the Rising Star Title and Register myself as Guardian.

Pet Horse is at Level 32, 5 more level to become a Knightmare Mount. I also going to level up this toon to Level 53 before I lock its experience, it will become a Dragon Hunter in Merac.

 

 

Rainy Season:

I thought it will be a new Elements of Iris Event, but I am getting Rain Drop instead. Actually they are just Health and Mana Potion, and they are not tradable. I was wondering if I should take a break from my Grand Balrog Hunting at Server T and Dragon Hunting at Server E and focus on something else.

I might consider going back to Transformation Scroll farming, or maybe try leveling up my Templar Knight Alpha Light at Server T and do a bit of Grand Balrog Hunting at Server E. Still trying to get a good video of killing Grand Balrog but it just doesn't drop any Rare Accessory these days, not sure if they set a threshold limit for the amount of Rare Accessory you can get from Raid Boss.

 6 Billions Dollar Man:

I had Demon Slayer on both server, I had Dragon Hunter at Server E. Now I would need to create a Devil Killer, so I will need a Level 57+15 Weapon and a Level 55+15 to Level 57+15 Armour Set.

In order to create that with out any failure, I would need 6 Lucky Smelting Stone to go from +4 to +10. I will also need 4 Chaos Smelting Stone to go from +10 to +14, I will finally need a Extreme Stone to get it to +15.

Lucky Smelting Stone cost about 50 millions, Chaos Smelting Stone cost about 180 millions and Extreme Stone cost about 10 Millions. So I will need about 1 Billions per gear to make it to +15, with 6 piece of gears it will cost about 6 Billions.

 Third a Charm:

Got a third Desire of Scared Tree from Golden Treasure Chest, what are the odd of that? Yesterday night I left my computer on for Merchant Mode, when I woke up this morning I found myself 300 Millions richer. The whole inventory of useless stuffs to me manage to clear out and now I am running out of stuffs to sell.

 Lady Luck Smiling:

Got a Double Rare Accessory Drop from Grand Balrog, what are the odds of that? I don't remember getting any double drop from Raid Boss last time when I play, but that was 12 years ago. What surprise me even more is that both are very good accessory for Healer Archer and Rogue Assassin.

 Fair Price:

Usually the Exchange Rate is 200AP = 10 Millions Gold, as the NPC is selling the Gold Magnifying Glass at 1 Million each. So according to this calculation, the price should be the one in the bracket.

Extreme Stone: 5M to 10M (30M)
Lucky Smelting Stone: 50M to 70M (15M)
Heaven Stone: 5M to 10M (10M)

Item Drop Booster: 10M to 15M (2M)
Experience Point Booster: 10M to 15M (2M)
Skill Point Booster: 10M to 15M (2M)

Drake Egg: 10K to 20K (25M)
Pan Flute: 10K to 20K (25M)

Strong Medicine 25M (5M)
Medium Medicine 15M (4M)

Affinity Booster 200M (20M)
HP Steal 50M (5M to 10M)
MP Steal 50M (5M to 10M)
Super Haste Potion 7M (3M)
*Beserker Potion 75M to 100M (5M)
Cool Down Reduction Potion 20M to 300M (5M)
Blessed Iris 250M (20M)
HP Boost 5M (5M)
MP Boost 5M (5M)
*Platinum Adrenaline 500M (7M)
Resurrection Scroll 35M to 80M (5M)
Pet Experience Potion 650M (15M)
Phoenix Ticket 120M (25M)

As you can see Beserker Potion and Platinum Adrenaline are selling at a much higher price as there is high demand for it. So it will be more worth it to buy them from the Item Mall and sell it. Not sure why common item like Drake Egg and Pan Flute is selling at such a high price at the Item Mall.
