Territory Update

There wasn't much activity this week. There were only three territory battles, and only one of them is worth noting. WarLord has once again attacked Malaysia, and it seems that are getting set to wipe the guild off the map. WarLord is also in a position to easily take over Ancient Dragon City. There are rumors that some guilds are formulating a plan to attack WarLord and retaliate. ReBorn is supposedly going to be a part of it. With an potential alliance on the way, WarLord might be in for a rough time next week. P.S. I am having technical issues with my computer, (I am making this revision from another computer) and will try to resolve the problem as soon as possible so I can start posting more videos and articles. I will make up for the lack of videos by posting extra videos.

Territory Update

So, WarLord has, once again, achieved victory, and conquered one of Malaysia's territories. However, Malaysia also captured a territory, and thus, kept the same number of territories. ReBorn captured their first level 2 territory, City of Feather. New Era did not attack or defend any territories this week. The only guild that controls less than seven territories is ALLIED, who is still holding on to their one and only territory, Orchis Serene Valley, after capturing it from us many weeks ago. WarLord was attacked by a guild this week, and I think that it is great that someone is trying to fight back. Unfortunately, they were defeated. WarLord's record is 16 victories, and 0 losses. Will anyone be able to stop them?

Scorpion Cave

After my Cave of Fire video, the only level 19 dungeon left to do was Scorpion Cave. This time, I really wanted to kill the boss at the end, so I went with a guild mate, jaffar459. Together we went through the dungeon, and these were our results.



When we died in the first part of the dungeon, jaffar459 was not carrying any potions, and I was but was not able to use them in time. Also, we aggroed too many monsters at once. After that mishap, we took the dungeon more carefully and made sure to avoid any extra enemies that might be wandering around. When we reached the Occult Drakas, the boss, we carefully planned out how to tackle him. We made certain that the battle would not be prone to bad communication. Careful use of potions and skills led to almost assured victory.

Territory Update

One more round of territory wars has passed by, and still WarLord, Malaysia, ReBorn, and New Era are the main guilds on the map. The only other guilds who own any territory are ALLIED and PandaCrew. Myth has lost their last territory, Walled Stronghold, to Malaysia. WarLord captured yet another level 2 territory, Dream Searching Port. Only 3 territories remain empty, and 2 of them are level 1 territories. WarLord is currently the only guild who is able to capture a level 1 territory. Due to WarLord's domination of the territory map, all of their members have massive amounts of gold. Because they hold so much gold, the price of Cubi-Gold is at about 140k per Cubi-Gold, and it shows no signs of dropping. This inflation is making players, including me, irritated. This negative effect of WarLord's domination might get some guilds to stand up and defy WarLord, which would be a welcome change. I have nothing against WarLord's members, but I would personally like to see them blown off the map. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that it will happen anytime soon.

Unicornu - OuranosWolven

This is a very quick kill of Unicornu - OuranosWolven, who is needed to complete Dragon Quest (41). This is the last thing you need to kill before you can receive your reward for this section of the Dragon Quest.




There really isn't much more to say about this elite. He's easy to kill, doesn't give good drops, and can be a little tricky to find. I was planning to have a video of Scorpion Cave posted this week, but I'm going to hold that off until next week, and try to kill the boss this time.

Territory Update

Another week has passed, and the shape of the territories has shifted. WarLord attacked the Mount of Lantern territory, and was also attacked at Peach Dock. They managed to capture the Mount of Lantern Territory, and fend off the attack at Peach Dock. It was still a good sight to see someone trying to resist WarLord's iron fist. Malaysia also captured a territory, Residual Mountain. WarLord and Malaysia both attacked the guild, Myth, when they captured there territories this week. Whether this is signs of an alliance, or just coincidence, it's hard to tell. New Era also some good headway this week, and captured City of Vanished, a level 2 territory. ReBorn has remained stable, and did not defend, or attack any territory this week. Next week should be interesting, as only four major guilds hold more than one territory on the map.

Cave of Fire Solo

Even though I am way past completing my level 19 dungeon, Wolf's Den, I wanted to see if I could solo a dungeon. I decided to take on Cave of Fire, the Human level 19 dungeon, alone. This was not only the first time in Cave of Fire, but it was also my first time to solo any dungeon.




I'm probably going to try again around level 55, so I can take another whack at the boss. I just couldn't last long enough against the boss's attack, and rapidly lost health. I was, however, glad that I made it through the rest of the dungeon. I soloed this dungeon especially for this video, so I didn't get any kind of quest reward. The only drops I received were gold, potions, and some low grade equipment. The boss, Throng Might, does have a very small chance of dropping gold molds, and he can also drop a range of equipment.

Chewy - Lord StyxShrew

After I got the quest to kill Chewy, the first thing I did was ask my guild mates if any of them could help. Unfortunately, none of them were available, but they were able to tell me where Chewy was. After receiving Chewy's location I flew there and asked if anyone in that area was looking to kill him. Lucky for me, I met a party and filled up their last spot.



If you didn't notice, I was the only person in our party that used melee attacks. Anyone else using melee attacks should make certain that they are not pulled away from the location where you should fight Chewy. I believe that the main reasons why the Elf Priest flew above the fight, was so that if an enemy in the area happened to stray close to him he wouldn't be attacked, and so that Chewy's minions didn't attack him.

Territory Update

Last week, WarLord had the most territories and showed the most power. This week, that hasn't changed. WarLord Is still expanding, and they aren't losing any of the territories they've gained. Also, during this last round of wars, WarLord became to first guild to capture a level 2 territory (a large town or city), City of Ethersword. The difference between level of territories is how much income each territory will give he guild each week. A level 3 territory gives the least income, a level 2 territory gives more than a level 3 territory, and a level 1 territory gives the most income. With the capture of a level 2 territory, WarLord now has the ability to capture a level 1 territory. The two level 1 territories are Ancient Dragon City and Thousand Steam City. The only competition WarLord seems to have is from Malaysia, ReBorn, and New Era. Malaysia has a very good foothold in the far north, ReBorn and New Era are more focused in the south west. Our guild had planned to try to recapture The Great Wall from PandaCrew (the guild we lost it to), but we got out-bidded by FCUK. FCUK, however, were not able to take The Great Wall away from Panda Crew's grasp.
