Zaken, Daily Kamaloka and the Born of Chanttal
The first exciting event on the end of the week was the idea of raiding Zaken. As he is an epic boss, full organized parties are required to get there in time and of course, kill him without any complication, so when I was fooling around on PipiGold, Wanft told me about the raid and I switched back to Maribel really fast to be able to catch up with the preparations.
I bought a Summoning Crystal and shortly after that I was summoned to the entrance of the ship. The other players were comming on their parties and we still had to wait about 30 minutes for the door to open. Once inside, we waited until morning to kill him. After setting the parties once again, we entered the first room and a party was bringing mobs and the boss, a few people got killed (I believe it was the other party, all of them dead), Zaken teleported to another room, a few players started to fight on chat (and on vent, we have an ally vent, but a few players left for their clan vent). We decided that the best way was to get back to the entrance and start over, but it was taking too long, then miz said she had to leave, I said it too (It was over 2 am and I had to wake up at 7), someone said that they didn’t need us anyway (An EE and a SwS?… hummm), she used party recall (I love that skill), probably a bad habit and shortly after that Wanft said that everyone had left, but even being a total failure, the experience of heading to a raid like that was really fun, even the smaller details like getting pots or getting summoned. Too bad it didn’t worked out, but I’m sure we’ll try again some other day.
Friday was a regular day, we finally got Mav to do the 56 Kamaloka with us again, the party was a good active healer, me playing Maribel and boxing Bellcross, Wanft playing himself and boxing Fou (Our bladedancer) and Mav as the uber Destroyer. Piece of Cake, the boss died fast and we didn’t had to run from too many invincible minions. We should do that again (I also miss the baby raids on Enchanted Valley and Forest of Mirrors).
Last night was the night of leveling up, PipiGold and Bellcross were about to level (10% left) and as usual, we headed to a catacomb, I believe it was apostate… and when the newbie buffs were off we noticed how much we really need Vampiric Rage (We’re getting closer to 61… when we reach that level, bye bye newbie buffs) and we decided to create a Shillien Elder, named Chanttal.
As I’m the only one with the hard job of leveling newbie chars (Right Wanft?), after I created her, I decided to try out the serie of quests that starts with the Blue Gem and the Newbie Guide. Seriously, it was really easy, I killed less than 10 mobs, got level 18, 60k of SP, music crystals and a a piece of a set. It was so easy that I logged back on my account and created a char to level her up (Maribelle, the one on the picture above) did the same steps and this morning I tanked the 23 Kamaloka Boss and Wanft was playing Chanttal and helping to hit. So, if you are planning to create an alt, start to play or simply create a new character, now it’s the time, just follow the newbie guide steps, once you’re finished, start the class change quest and in the end you’ll be with enough sp for all your skills and on level 20-21. Have fun!
