The adventure of a Knight named Alpha Light as he journey through the world of Iris.
Christmas Event had started, they try to follow the Official Server this year. There is Ornament Decoration to Christmas Tree and it will drop Christmas Gifts and give Christmas Buffs, but due to the lack of players and the Christmas Quest that require Ornament and Santa Fragment I don't think it will work out well. They had put out Christmas Package this year and claimed that it is better than Black Friday, but as the players doesn't know what they are going to get from the package most still waiting for more information before they would buy it.
They had come up with Instant Level to Level 165 for new toon with Level 165 +30 Gears to help Newbie, but they did not consider the farming of Pictorial Book stuffs. So I think all my toons which are lock at different level for farming seem like a very good idea from the start, it is not that it is not possible to do so now but using Reborn would seem like a hassle as you need to reach max level for it.
The other game Lineage II Revolution which I had played before also hit rock bottom when they start Instant Level, it was still not so bad when they let Newbie jump direct to Level 80 or 90 but it become bad when they raise it to Level 260 and Level 320. A lot of Newbie are lost as they did not really farm Core from mobs and have no ideas on how to use them or how to progress with Daily Quest.
Horizon:
Christmas Event had also started, nothing much different from last year except Christmas Boss Mythrandor which is similar to Halloween Boss at Tairan Ice Lake which got chance to drop Reindeer Collar and Christmas Title. Overall Christmas Event still much better as compare to Halloween, as it give Drop Rate Buff and better rewards. Players will be divided between farming in Dark Tomb and farming for Snow Flake again like last year, but their main focus will still be Christmas Boss like what happen on this year Halloween.
They had start a new Ascension System and rework Alber Map with new Boss, Ascension System still cater to high level players as it just give better buff with the amount of experience over a short period of time, but Alber Map rework is a expectation from most players for years. They had a lot of plans for the future to make the game into higher resolution, but their progress still consider very slow as we have not see Codeless Migration and Pet Transfer until now.
It might be another empty promise as usual as they had already finding excuses on the delay on new update before they even started, but as long as they are still making improvement to the game there will always be a few loyal fans who ignore their short listings and start singing their praises for the small achievements. As long as they keep the players happy and not make any stupid mistakes they should continue to survive for another few more years, this seem to be a living nightmare for most private server as a few of them who try to copy the ideas didn't really end up well.
Nothing much had happen as there are no event, they even postpone the maintenance for a week just to enjoy the holiday. Music had been spamming the chat claiming that he was ban for no reason, but most player knew that he was using bot. He had been saying some player are duping item, but until now there are no solid evidence to proof it.
Instead of complaining about the game everyday, he could have do a fresh start and get over it. Why just sit there and do nothing about it when you can try to improve on the situation, unless you doesn't really have the knowledge and experience to achieve what you use to have or even better surpass it.
Aphelion:
Penkichan had been trying to get Rune of Agility, I give him 10K of Animal Heart, 2K of Maze Token and 10 Extreme Juno Essence which should be enough for two. The next day he was trying to get Shiva Pet, I give him two Collar, 1 Premium Bless and 50 Bless and Curse Book. He should be able to farm a lot of stuffs with the Pet AOE Skill.
Cringee had decided to try it out after seeing my post on Discord. He was having a hard time finding Lilit at Floriam Cave and nobody bother to help him, I switch toon to recall him to the location. I didn't know he was from Horizon as he never really speak much on both In Game or on Discord, after he message me on Discord I met him in Town and give him the same Newbie Package to help him enjoy the game better.
I had help him with the Four Realms Quest and he manage to level to Level 185 in few hours, I give him Godly Weapon, Phoenix Wing, Peacock Wing, 3 Gift of Star, 3 Gift of Nebula, Rune of Fire, Reconstruction and Bravery. All these stuffs will help him in Pet Leveling and Boss Killing, he should be doing fine for the rest of the journey.
I give him the Christmas Title which I got from Santa Boss and give him 15K Token for the 185 and 200 Title, the Christmas Title is better but only last for 30 Days but the 185 and 200 Title will last forever. I had got the 185 and 200 Title for six of my 185 toon, just need to get more Token for the same Title for another two more. It was mainly because the other Title from the 185 Box also expired after 30 Days, and two other toon is using the Zoo Keeper Title for Pet Leveling.
Horizon:
Rain Drop Event had ended, manage to get 2 Heaven Stone Grade 12 and 3 Legendary Iris. Give the 3 Legendary Iris to my Apprentice Hans Solo as he will need it for his Vald Quest later, he had not been playing much as his parent only allow him to play on weekend now after one night he play late and cannot wake up the next day morning.
New patch had introduce new rewards for the Attendance System, the new rewards that replace Ace of Diamond are as follows:
The rest of the rewards for Attendance Token and Title remain the same from the previous time, they also allow Merchant Profession above the limit of Level 55 now. Most players are able to make their Night Shadow and Phoenix to become Merchant, if not there are a lot of stuffs they are unable to trade. The rewards from the Attendance System also make sure players are able to get some premium stuff like the Phoenix Quest, at least we are able to expect more improvement in time to come.
Alphelion:
Been farming for Coin of Master the whole weekend, manage to get another 45K of Coin of Master which bring my total number to 95K. Also manage to farm about 55K of Token over the 4 Days as they start the event on Friday and end it on Monday, I will be spending another few days to clear the Token. During the process I had help two Newbies named Nightmare and Nekone, give them a good P2 Pet which will help them in their quest.
I join the Hide and Seek event and mange to get a Platinum Event Ticket, it give a Master of all Event Title which give good Status Boost and cool Artifact Wing. Guess it is because I am the only one who manage to find the Game Sage Til Death at Mondshine during Round 3 and the 2nd Player to find him again during Bonus Round.
This Game Sage had a habit of hiding high up in the mountain at very hard to reach place, most of the time players will be getting stuck at the slope and unable to reach his location. It is the most challenging Hide and Seek event I had ever participate, and it kind of improve my skill of mountain climbing in game over the months.
It is a good way to explore the map and discover new things through all these events, if not most players only spend their time in Juno, Tomb, Floriam Cave, Misty Crayon, Tairan, Four Realms, Maze and Extreme Juno. Egeha had become popular after they introduce the new patch to make it Level 200, Frost Core had also become popular when the mobs drop new skill book. Dratan, Merac, Streiana, Bloodymir and Mondshine remains empty with nobody to explore unless there are events there.
