[MSEA] Chaos patch: Ice Knight Brr

 

The Ice Knight patch took an entire day, so there's reimbursement - 2X Exp & 2X Drop rate on 24th and 25th November, 2000 to 2200.

So Ice Knight mode is pretty fun, but it gets chaotic and messy at times and the Ice Knight blends in with the mess and the background. So look out for the blue label "Ice Knight" below the Ice Knight to figure its placing. Every other challenger in the map with you has a red label "Challenger".

So down the Ice Knight in 7 minutes and the Challengers win! I haven't seen an Ice Knight winning yet, and I haven't been an Ice Knight yet. So I shall wait!

I like events! So here's the Ice Knight Curse.
At 2pm, Cursed Knight will appear at Henesys! He'll mumble to you something about his fate and power and then curse you, after which you are led to Rosette in the Battle Square for more information.

Weirdly enough, she tells you to try an Ice Knight match and have fun. All you have to do is be the Ice Knight in the Ice Knight mode. Sounds easy but not really. Many just went in and once the game starts and they weren't the Ice knight, they left and repeated the cycle. I only got to become the Ice Knight at literally the last minute, 1459. Whew.

Pretty worth it to get. Website states that this event lasts till 31st December so have fun getting it!
Sadly, the rest of the events debut on 1st December, or need cash. Well, at least my Wind Breaker is coming along nicely. Chaos Warrior Challenge completed!

[MSEA] Super Fight

Happy 11/11/11 today!

Since its such a special day, MapleSEA is having Hot Time! Remember those times where everyone would wait expectantly and it will lag so terribly and many will dc? Its back!

On 11/11/2011 at exactly 2011 (8.11pm), there's a Super Fight Hot Time! All characters logged in at that minute will receive a Gift Box and you've got till 2359 to open it! So what's in it?

An SP reset scroll, and 1/2/3 Gallant Emblem for you to switch with NPC Larson at the Battle Square (Go to Battle Square via Maximus in all towns). Lucky people get extra things!

Well, it failed so it was postponed to 12/11/11, 1430. Sadly, I missed it!

So here's 5 things about PvP:

1. EXP
You seriously get alot of exp from the 10 minutes that you are in the Battle Square. I haven't really compared the exp from Free-for-all (FFA) Team -match, but it makes your characters super easy to level.

In addition, there's 1.5x exp till 30th November from 1400 to 2100. FFA till you happy! No more need to ks people's map!

2. Its something NEW!
Finally, you can slash something that isn't a monster!

3. The POWERUPs!
Don't get me wrong, I hate it when you get turned into a monster when you pick up the random box, but its awesome when you pick up the "Power" power-up. As long as you monopolise the "Power" and take advantage to spam KO people, you'll rank up high! Instead of the normal HIT and COOL, you'll get lots of CRITICAL and event EXECELLENT!

4. I'm a Shadower so I can Boomerang step + Assaulter combo!
Well, there are some jobs to really look out for, e.g. Battle mage. Ooh I hate it when your character gets pushed around and fly around and get stunned and all. But that's PvP for you.

5. Battle points get reset every time you log out, so note that you've changed your BP for Gallents at the BP Exchanger before logging out!

Happy PvPing! Don't get bored of it so soon! I will though.

[MSEA] Battle Mode FTW

Except that it keeps dcing every other minute. But its so awesome I'm serious. Blog about it again soon!
