Hurricane 13

With the end of the blog contest, I will leave you with my experience with hurricane 13. :P We knew it would be difficult and would probably die in the process...but just couldn't resist.

We were actually able to kill everything except the hurricane and human in the end...but couldn't kill the hurricane fast enough. So when it healed...everything fell apart. lol.

Suffice it to say, we had to do some survival to regain the lost exp. :D

Hope you enjoy reading my blog, and I'll try to continue to post screenshots from the game. Please see the useful links in the right menu bar for very helpful posts in the forum.

Guild War

During our 2nd match in guild war on Saturday, Genesis transcended into new dimensions of time and scored 99 points. :D I'm pretty sure this has to be a new world record in mythwar. lol ^^

Interested in Guild War?

Participating in guild war is simple if you join a guild that always registers. Registration is open on Fridays, so the guild leader just needs to go to guild headquarters and speak with the Diplomat.

Guild war takes place on Saturdays and Sundays:

• First round: 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm server time
• Second round: 9:30 pm - 11:00 pm server time

You can enter the battlegrounds waiting area starting from the times listed above (it includes 30 minutes of preparation time before you can actually enter the battle area). Just speak to the ghost-looking NPC named "Battlegrounds" near the teleporter in Woodlinger.

Once in the the waiting area, at 7:30pm or 10:00pm, depending which round, you can enter the battle area by talking to the snake-looking NPC in the waiting area. Each guild is color coded (either red or blue) and has their own statue to protect.

To score points:

• Be in a party of at least 3 people and click on the other guild's statue to obtain a stone (you won't see it in inventory)
• Wait for 1 minute
• Click on the other guild's statue again to check that the 1 minute has passed
• Return to your own statue and click on it.

To defend:

• Attack the other guild's parties
• Can also click on your guild's statue to engage the other guild's team that is trying to steal your guild's stone.
• Once a party loses a fight, they must wait outside of the battlegrounds for 5 minutes before they can re-enter.

Guild war is a great way to interact with other guilds, and hopefully everyone remembers to keep it friendly and fun. :D

P.S. There are NO rules about what you can or cannot use in a fight. (I'm tired of hearing teams get upset when someone uses stun or if the other team is using christmas pets...)

Carnival of May - Pet Purchase

Here is a screenshot of me right before I sacrifice 3 Lizard Miners for money. :D GMs will be purchasing these useless...I mean...unique...pets for a high price for this event. I'm just hoping I will be online when they are buying these pets. *hope*

...Just as I thought, I missed the GMs purchasing the Lizard Miners. :'( I wake up and see this system message in my history log. I was probably 10 minutes or so late -.-' Oh well, guess I'll have to live with these guys a little longer...

Carnival of May - Free Presents

From May 1-4 there is a mythwar event composed of four parts:

• Free Presents (May 1st-3rd)
• Bounty Hunter and Survival Quest (May 1st)
• Pet Purchase (May 2nd and 3rd)
• Fourfold Experience Event (May 4th)

For the 'Free Presents' event, the system message tells players the location the GM will appear and vendor great items for only 1 gold.

I was actually lucky enough to buy 1 chocolate one time. :P When you see the crazy mob of people trying to buy items below, you'll understand the competition to get an item. The GM is barely visible in the mass of people clamoring for a chance to buy something. You can barely see the GM's hammer and blue hair. :D

Guild Allotment Quest - Titans

Part of the guild allotment quest is for guild members to work together to kill 3 titans in desert city in under 1 minute and have the fastest time in comparison to other guilds.

So a few days ago our guild participated and set the record for the fastest time to defeat the titans...


System announced to collect the rewards, which are +9 gems, and each guild member can claim one. Unforutnately there is a maximum of 50 people, and our guild has 150+ members...so only the first 50 people are able to claim the prize. :(

Interested in defeating the titans?

Go to desert city (315,365) with some guildmates to fight the 3 titans. Divide up into 3 parties, each fighting 1 titan. Ideally, all 3 parties should start at the same time. The goal is to finish within 1 minute and have the fastest time.

Each party will receive a titan heart. One person will take all 3 back to guild headquarters (90,125) and give them to the guild cleric. You need 15 empty slots in inventory for the +6 gems you will receive for completing the quest in under 1 minute.


If your guild has the fastest time set for the week, members of your guild will each receive +9 gems on Wednesday at 18:00 server time. :D

Once the system announcement has been made to claim gems, go to the redemp angel in woodlinger (465,635) and select the 'Redeem reward from Guild Allotment quest' option.

Congratulations!

GM Excitement

It is always fun when the GM appears in mythwar to socialize with the "little people." The GM gets bombarded with everyone greeting him, asking for pets, and trying to get attention. :D

Benson was vendoring for fun and sold a few items for 1 gold: a phantasm, wild pears, banana sushi, and a teleport scroll. Pretty random, but funny.

Then, of course, everyone wants to try to PK the GM...I think Benson had his accept challenge window off...so naturally, everyone starts PKing each other for fun.

Round 16 Survival and Pet Reborn

Looking for a challenge, my party and I decided to venture into the unknown and attempt round 16 of survival. It was time consuming, frustrating ... but so satisfying to know that we could do it.

After doing survival, I decided to reborn my big crab...

Interested in reborning a pet?

.

To reborn a pet, the requirements are:

• Pet must be lvl 100
• Pet must have at least 50k intimacy with you
• You have 2 million gold
• Your character is reborn

With your pet on battle, go to Woodlinger (245,80), which is near the Trading Zone. Then speak with the NPC Translar and select to reborn your pet.

Your pet will receive:

• 40 bonus stats at lvl 1-1
• 0.1 increase in the growth rate
• Can add 2 more crystals (+4 and +5 crystals)
• A cool orange name. :D

Pet Leveling

After deciding to hatch two of the eggs from the event, my team and I decided to spend some time leveling them.

These stats illustrate that not only the growth rate of pets are important, but the random initial stats that pets have at level 1 play an important role in pet attributes. Note the big difference in mana and speed between the two feral wolves. This cannot solely be due to the growth rate of the pet's stats (number shown in green) because the health of the lower growth rate pet on the right is higher than that of the left.

Fourfold Experience Event

Survival Quest
In search of gold, experience points, and a "special reward" for this event, my team and I head to sunset plains to fight Existent.

Each round introduces a new enemy with new dangers...

...after facing the practically indestructable 'Killer Raven' borg, we decide to stop after round 15.

Bounty Hunter
Weary from fighting the killer borg, I decide to grab a group together to do something fast and fun. We need to exterminate five groups of enemies as fast as possible...for the honor...and for the "special reward." :D


Special Reward
Curious about the special reward? Here's the prize:

	Randomly obtain one of the following pets: Leopard wolf, Giant slicer, Lycosa, Lizard Miner, Hell Cat, Mummy, and Feral Wolf.
	Resets all character stat points and retains level.
	Increases character and active pet experience points by 3 million points.
