Where has Zag been (The Update) Part 2

I have been building a fence around my property :) I have spent the last couple (few?) weeks doing that and preparing for a visit from the gf's parents, cousins and grandma. So, I have been away from Lineage t.t but that is ok, I was starting to need a break anyway.

As for the event, I have died 2x so far and I have joined the bloodpledge "300". Some of you, my friends may not like that, but so far, they are all good guys and best of all, no bots! While there were no bots in my own bloodpledge "Inanna" either, it was getting lonely just being alone in my own pledge.

Hope to see all of you in Lineage and have a lot of fun. To my friends, I will hunt with you anytime, and to my enemies, save the fighting for siege and don't expect to kill me ^^

Where has Zag been? (The Update)

I am quitting. This is good. It is difficult, but I hope to have your encouragement. ^^

Part 2 of why I have been gone next

Update later tonight

Sorry I didn't get the update done today...I will do it later this evening when I get home from work.

The Death of Zag...

So it seems to have been that I died while at Giran Cross.Someone placed flowers around my corpse and then some people decided to show up

People started wondering how I died, and talking about how I have been thinking about quitting again. While I think about this alot due to real life things, I am also considering quitting again because I am not having a lot of fun anymore.
It became a full-out funeral it seems...Even GMLysira showed up to pay her respects ^^

Finally, Red Leader left a mail paper on the ground. Upon my eventualy resurrection via restart, I was able to read it. This letter made me want to not quit, so Iam not quitting anytime soon even though being solo (for the most part) is kinda crummy.
I have a new goal now, and while the rest of the lineage world may move on to level 65, 70, etc. I will continue to play the game my way, to have fun always and let the levels come as they will.

Thanks to all of you, you have renewed my interest in this game again :), and a special thanks to the person that sent me the screenshots. A few people were going to, so I am not sure who you are in game. If I get some more, I will post them as well.

In Game Zisi - Joke on Monitor

I got whispered by the monitor the other day (9th April), so after answering their questions, I waited about 10 to 15 minutes and then whispered the monitor back...

Monitor thought it was pretty funny :)

A couple new Pics.

Staff of Strength from Elmore Wizard. I was not really aware that they dropped these. This is the first time I have ever seen that happen.

There was apparently some little glitch in the graphics in FV when I was playing last night. Either that, or I can walk on fire :)

Another reason to use a Mac for Lineage

I think this picture speaks for itself...

Notes:

• The Background (Desktop) has been edited to not show what is on it.
• My HP/AC/MP/EXP and hotkeys have been edited out on Zagurim.
• Both Clients are running at the same time in this shot.

Some drops...

Here are some recent drops. Nothing too special, just a little interesting.

From The Ship Graveyard

Also from the Ship Graveyard

Giant King Squid (lame drop)

Contaminated Orc Area.

I find the Contaminated Orc area very interesting. It has a good spawn rate and is decent experience for 50+ level characters. The mops here kinda hurt, but they drop all kinds of weird stuff for the quests that are offered down there. I kinda of enjoy the area and look forward to hunting there when I have time to burn, which is, unfortunately, not that often...

Lvl 52 and beyond

Lvl 52:

Alright here are some updates. I am Lvl 52 now. I achieved Lvl 52 on 15 February 2009 at approximately 7:0am PST. This was during the Valentines day double-exp event. When the event started I was Lvl 51 with 5% exp. By the time sunday evening came around I had managed to gain something like 60% more exp, leaving me 35% to go. So I stayed up late, really late. 35% might not seem like much, but at ~4%/hr that is almost 9 hours of game time. I thought I would be done by 3am, but I grossly overestimated how much exp I would be able to pull per hour if I quit screwing around LOL. Oh well, I made the goal.

Mambo Rabbit:

So right after I get Lvl 52 I run into Mambo Rabbit, not once, but 3 freekin times. That was kinda cool. I first encountered it on the above ground portion of PI, and I was thinking, wow, I have heard about this guy, but never seen it myself. OK Time to die. So I killed it, and it dropped junk. I continued on and when to the elemental ruins and encountered it again, killed it again and went on about my business. Suddenly out of nowhere, there it was again, and I am thinking w00t! Its my lucky day, but alas, as usual, It dropped junk again...

Cloak of Poison Serpent:

This looked interesting, so I decided to do the quest. The cloak is +10hp and is 1 ac better than CoP. I dunno, it also looks nice, especially contrasted with my ddpm sitting right next to it :)

Cheers,

Zag

Some Old Stuff

Back in the day, I was a bot killer. Was this bot yours? I hope so :)

Level 51 & Dark ELf Holy Land

I have managed to get Level 51 now. That makes me happy. Hopefully I will be Level 52 before too long.

Here are some pictures from our latest tript to the DarkElf Holy Land
To get to the Holy Land, you will need to defeat all of the RV4 bosses. Make sure to collect a "Writing of Death Knight for each member of your party and distribute them before you talk to Dantes, as just talking to him will make the Writing of Death Knight disappear from your inventory!
The first creature you are going to encounter in the Dark Elf Holy Land is the Tyupon. These things are weird looking, and by weird I mean they are kind of creepy.
Next you will enconter the Otyu. These guys spit this green stuff out at you and come in both "single" creatures and large groups. The large groups hurt pretty bad, so make sure that when you go there you have a group.

And finally (other than Girtas) you will encounter Wyverns. They are pretty cool and they do a tornado spell.

As for drops? So far I have gotten:
Ancient Relic (x3)
Fragment of Summoning Device (x5)

As a group we also got a couple Spellbook:Greater Haste but, that's it. This is a fun place to hunt, but it does require high AC and high MR. if you want to survive for any decent amount of time.

As always, hope you enjoy peeking at my blog, and that you are having fun playing Lineage: The Bloodpledge! (Only the best MMORPG there is)

Working on 51

Hi guys and gals, I am working on getting to level 51. The event had stalled me however as do my frequent trips to RV with my pledge mates. But that's OK. We have a good exp event coming up, so I will get 52 before the end of the month. w00T!

Pics of Zag ;)

Here is Zag and his beautiful girlfriend...

Here is Zag getting ready to go skydive. Yup, it's my own gear too :)

Here is Zag's girlfriend after a skydive. HAPPY! :)

Trying to update more.

There is a lot that I could say about Lineage, the current event, etc. but, we have the boards for that, so I am going to drop some pics in and talk about those, because while the event is fun, this is more fun.
So there I was randoming around and who should I run into but Wanted Criminal Kuzak. Well, since he's a criminal I figure I better apprehend him :) He is easy and I am not really sure when or why he is in the game. I have killed him once or twice before and always got his food and wonder drug, but this time he dropped those two items as well as TQD, TQE and TQR. All in all, a nice drop from something that is very very easy to kill.
Pandora, all decked out for the Holidays....

RV4

The first "boss" we get to is Supreme Court Justice Kenya. Just getting here takes some work, but it is so fun and the potential for a good drop is so good, we do it often. This one is not very hard at all.


Here is, iirc the last boss of the first section of the 4th floor. NC has done nobody any favors on RV4. This whole is timed, and it is up to the players to not only figure out what to do to open the doors to move on, but additionally you only have a certain amount of time to kill 4 bosses or you get tele'd back to the start of the 4th floor to "try again".


Here is SCJ Ramias, the 2nd half of Rv4 was pretty cool, and it seemed that the bosses came faster which was kinda nice because we were all stoked to have made it this far considering our typical party is a pretty odd mix of people Ranging from Lvl 48 all the way up to Lvl 70.
SCJ Tiames... We rocked his world. Our two main mages just continually kick ass and take names. We would not be able to do this without them. Maybe someday when I am Lvl 90 or something, but that is so far in the future that I will probably be old by then :)

My pledgemates/out of pledge friends can correct me if I am wrong, but I think this was the last guy that we made it to. We were flying through here but we simply didn't have enough firepower to be able to kill the boss and then clear the room before the timer ran out. The mops here are hard, they have the potential to do massive damage and I think all of us have died in this area at least once. I could be wrong about that though. Hard to remember.
