SoE = Hard but Fun!

First I would like to send a congrats out to a friend of mine who reached DK this past week. I helped him gain his last .5% as he was dc'ing alot that day.

Grats Brownknight!
Another friend of mine xSnowmanx, who happens to live somewhat close to me reached DK status as well. I do not have any screenshots of him though.

Saw this little weapon, I believe this is most likely every elves dream wep...until some new bows come out at least.
Now on to the main part of this post, paid a little visit to the Resistance Caverns, traveled across to the Ancient Giant Plains, then ventured into the Sanctuary of Evil.

Clink and I were just hunting right outside of the town waiting for our hunting party to assemble...
Finally got our party going and started to head towards the entrance of SoE. Huhs couldn't resist killing this guy as they drop Gran Scrolls which is the equal of a Bzel. Our party consisted of Huhsooabi, Davidking, Dcwalker, Clink, and myself. A fairly solid group in my opinion...So we went in and the fun began (yes it was fun but very hard)This screenshot was right as we started in to the main part of the SoE.
Mops there hit really hard, luckily we had two great tanks, and 3 healers (Clink is NB Elf now)

This Demon takes a while to kill...I wanna say it took around 3-4 minutes of steady attacking to end it! Look at the awesome drop we got from it!Couldn't have asked for a better drop I don't think...Risk vs. Reward is a beautiful thing!

After this guy alot of mops spawned on us, I was too busy healing and immuning to take a screenshot, we had to flee back to the entrance...I would estimate that there were 4 Bapho / Beleth, a Lessor Demon of Varlok and a Varlok. Luckily no one died, as we all made it back to the entrance. Did some regening went back in and found 2 of these guys all alone!

We did not hunt much after this as people had to go, I remained in the caves one more day...but I had to get back to leveling. It was definately worth the 500k to visit this place. Looking forward to a trip back to here someday =]

Slow week...

Really have not had much excitement as far as drops go this week...

Here is a better late than never congratulations from one of my good buds.

Dc and I went up to 25th TOI to try our luck at getting a couple of Fire Rings, no luck before we called an end to our hunt we checked 26th TOI for a Reaper. Needless to say we found two!

Both dropped nothing, although it was pretty cool seeing two up at the same time...

Got a little bored so I decided to go to the Elven Mother Tree, while sitting there I remembered how tough I thought the Elven Guardians used to be ( they were to me in beta at least ;) ) Here are a couple of screenshots =]

Huhs, Dave, BlueMilkTea, and myself got pheo again the other day...No Met Strike:SB, once again (maybe one day =]) Treated us a tad bit better though than before.

Would like to end this update with a ss...No explanation needed.


More as it comes...

Level Up & Hunts

Yes it is true, I have finally reached Level 51, it seems like it has taken such a long time. I had awesome help the last .75% of Level 50 though.
Clink was with me the entire .75% and Eisley (She says im her hero ^_^) logged in and immediately joined in. It is very awesome to have elves healing that heck out of you. I believe i got the last .75 in less than 45 minutes (which in my opinion is pretty decent for a mage)

Finally on 6/6/06 I attained this:

I received alot of congrats,although, being the silly mage I am; I forgot to screenshot alot of them. So I included the congrats of the ones I had. Sorry for those of you who I missed. I was pretty distracted at the time. Yes I did indeed add to INT, which brings my base stats to 18 CON 18 WIS 17 INT. (Best mage build for 50+ I believe anyway)

I would also like to make mention that Dcwalker is indeed back to lineage. I am very happy to see him make his return. He remains one of my very close friends left in lineage (and he is cool for letting me post here). Went on a short hunt with him but forgot to take a screenshot, sorry!

I got a couple of decent drops (for me anyway, I already made mention of my horrible drop luck) on the way to Level 51.

Bdai
After fooling around for a little bit yesterday Clink, Eisley and myself decided to go meet up with HuhsooAbi and DavidKing who were already down in the Elemental Caverns. HuhsooAbi is one hell of a friggin tank. It seemed like (well to me) that it was very easy down there with the group we had. We got no noteable drops to speak of, but it was the first in-dept hunt in Elmental Cavern for both Eisley and I. Just took a couple of screenshots while on the trip there.


Expower from our pledge called Phoenix was up so Huhs, Dave, and myself went there. Did not get a screenshot of Huhs fighting it, but got the drops. Huhs tanked it herself for 90% of the time, the only drop she did not pull was a zel and 8 blues. Shame no Met. Strike: SB, maybe next time =]
Ended my adventures yesterday with a hunt down to DVC6 with Huhs and Dave, we were trying to snag a L-Storm:SB or a ROTC again my drop luck followed, we came back with nothing.Ill have more when I can.

Bringing us up to date...

Ok, so I have a wide range of screenshots here, many are old, as I have not had a chance to post in a long time. This first screenshot was taken down in DVC, Clink and I was killing a lot of Succubus Queens in an attempt to get a Lightning Storm: SB and or a ROTC. None the less, we both have horrible drop luck so we came back empty handed. Here is a usual shot of a cheap Ifirit and a cheap Dark Elder, although that was my first time killing a Dark Elder.


Clink and I were doing a hunt up on TOI:24fl and we decided we would go check if The Reaper was up. He was and dropped us nothing, again I will stress Clink and I have the best drop luck ever!!!!Was leveling in Fire Valley, and I have must of killed 10000000000000000000 bomb flowers by this point and have yet been able to snag a Fog of Sleeping: SB. Although, according to LineageDB this drop is of the same drop rate of Fog of Sleeping...Go Figure >< Someone within the pledge called that The Ant Queen was up, we gathered a few members and went down. Her new earthquake attack is really annoying...not the best drops, but at least we came back with something.Brownknight, Clink, and myself were on PI busy completing the quests there and we were on our way down to the Elemental Caverns when we found this thing... We got awesome drops....
I would also like to extend congratulations to a friend of mine: LegsatLast : , he has been around for quite sometime and he has finally been able to make it over the horrible LVL49 barrier. CONGRATS BUD!!! Now get to 51 so you can use a faster bow morph....A fellow mage also wanted to praise this blog, although I do not feel like i deserve the credit due to my lack of updating...anyhow.I have other screenshots on the other computer I am able to play Lineage on, I will try to track those down sometime soon. ( I do not have a stable connection to play at home, so I am forced to play elsewhere when I am able.)

More to come...
