HeRO \o/ Part 5

Training with Ian.

Taking rough sea salt to this aunty.

2 children protected by Snowysnow

SWOWYSNOW THE SNOWMAN

Creating the perfect instrument?

 
































































































At last! a bard.







































































Was training with Ian until we both got to Job Level 40. With nothing to Lose (since I dont really like ensemble skills) I went for a job change. Going to Comodo was easy, I just needed to pay the Kafra in Morroc 1.8k z (easily earned). Talking to the wandering bard with an aloe flower in my hand, he told me I was skillful and that aloe leaflets can also be used to heal all kinds of illness. Baby I know, I have aloe vera plants in my garden.

Anyway, he said being a bard is no joke, and I need to befriend someone from Lutie, a christmas village and bring back some gifts. Since I am this antisocial bastard, I prefer talking to NPCs instead. Yeah this snowman was crying because he was alone, and that he has no legs to move to visit other people. This damn hipster, forever alone before it was cool.

Anyway, after some talking we learned that there was an alchemist named Phillip or Philz or something like that, walked into a village that was 80% destroyed, seeing some near to death villagers begging him to release them from his suffering but he ignored them and continued walking, barging into people's homes breaking jars for hearts, rupees and fairies. Anyway the main story is that at one point in the ruined village, he saw two children, still alive and hiding behind a snowman. He was amazed and touched that this snowman saved two children so he used his magic to transport the snowman somewhere where he can be preserved forever.

And that was how Snowysnow was born! in the village of Lutie. He seems to have a very good reputation, giving free candy from a Doraemon 4 Dimension santa sack that can be used to produce an unlimited amount of what the person desires. And he never gives anyone anything else except candy and also rough sea salt to make pickles for Mr Hairy that was old enough to know the history of the village. After talking to everyone and finding out Snowysnow's past, Snowysnow was glad that I took interest and promised to be my friend, giving me 2 pieces of cake. I bought the cake back to the wandering bard, and together with 60 barren trunk I demanded he made an instrument for me. So I became a bard, and got a mandolin. Good enough.

P.S : Snowysnow wasn't the only talking snowman, theres one more talking snowman in Lutie's church. :\

HeRO \o/ Part 4

Clouds!? ONLY CLOUDS!?

So I went aboard the airship to try to go to Einbroch, but it seems that the journey only traverses from Izlude to Juno, Juno to Rachel and back to Izlude. So it was okay, I didn't really need to go to Einbroch anyways :( .

Ain't gonna spend any money on that.

So there are many fun things to do in the Airship, many exciting views. Well, of course. I paid 1.5k zenies for this! It better be pretty. So as I was saying, its pretty cosy inside the cabin. I was afraid some unknown flying species would attack outside so I ran inside to keep myself safe. Look at them gambling !_! and that lady seems to have her dress over the table huh ;)

SKULLL

Last but not least, Byalan Island. Northeast of Izlude, the sailors will bring you there for a cheap price of 150z. Pretty worth it. The island itself is pretty amazing, If you walk to where those eyes are on the minimap, there are tombstones there. Pretty creepy, considering you are just travelling to a dungeon where King Neptune lives at the very bottom.

HeRO \o/ Part 3


 The continuation of the journey. I am now in Lutie, Toy Factory. Lutie can only be accessed if you go to Al De Baran and talk to Santa (the big fat guy with white facial hair in red attire) at the north east corner of the map. (Not North West ;) please ignore any reference to a creative name given by celebrity parents) There, he takes you to Lutie for free.

At first I was afraid I had to walk to Al De Baran from Prontera though, there were many stem worms that are aggro and has over 6k HP, so it would be a nightmare.

Anyway, its all fun and games in Toy Factory, where lots of pretty mazes exist.... UNTIL MVPS begin to appear. The only MVP I was able to put up with was Mastering, with 2k HP. The rest were crazy and I had to avoid them.


Arch Angeling and its pawns.
Manmade Maze :P

HeRO \o/ Part 2



ZAP ZAP















 So this is my magician. Just made it in case I got bored with my archer. The quest was really taxing though, they wanted me to create a solution and I had to run around finding the ingredients to create them. Yeah, there was a bookcase somewhere inside the magician's guild, and to make Solution 4 I had to buy Morroc's Solution from Pocahontas for 50z. The rest was pretty easy though, got them from beginner's island.
BURN BURN

I got to explore really amazing places I really havent got the chance to go to when I was playing in other private servers. Because the rates are quite low, I had to actually move around the map to find monsters I had to ZAP ZAP. But in this case its BURN BURN, cause I am using firebolt.

So back to my archer. I was training a bit with Ian just earlier, he was using his swordsman. Yeap, swordsmen are good tanks, they have a very big HP reservoir, even though their attacks may be quite low without spamming skills. Our SP deplete very fast though. When he went offline I went solo for a bit, around this map right here. It's really annoying that those elder willows are so damn aggresive though, I was just walking around when one attacked me.

Adding these pictures in are no joke, it seems that blogspot isn't very photo friendly.

HeRO \o/


So I recently got into this server (just yesterday actually) to play with Ian. The server is called HeRO, and the rates are pretty decent. Not that overpowered and everything is ok. Ian said he wanted to play as a crusader, so I thought; okay, I should play as something ranged. My choices were initially Magician or Archer, but then I realized I played as magician a lot previously in other servers so I thought why not? Archer ftw.
Beginner Island! DIE PORINGS DIE
 So I started off in beginner's island or "Novice Island" as they called it. Yeah, as a novice. I did all the quests there, and they sent me to this place where there was a lot of little monsters you dont see in daily life. Although I killed a lot of porings, ChonChons give a whole lot more exp. So I killed until I got to 10 job levels and then moved on.
WILLOWS WHERE ARE YOU
So yeah, to get to become an archer I need to massacre willows and collect their trunks. Apparently to create a high quality bow. I went to the wrong map at first, so only 10 willows were spawning at a time. Walked crazy around the map to find them willows, only saw spores jumping around minding their own business.

SNIPE SNIPE MOTHERFCKER

































So yeah. Became an archer the legit way. In previous servers there were job changers so I didnt have to run around helping people do their shit. But this way seems more fulfilling. Hopefully this server will take my interest long enough before they fade again.

Post [100]

If nobody noticed, its the 100th post \o/
----------------------------------------

Today, I will be here to talk about purely random stuff. I don't really have anything decent in mind right now that I can spurt out here, except nonsense of course. I am here to keep the blog alive since it contains a lot of memories. Well, for me that is.

My finals just ended for Year 2, Semester 1 of my degree. It was really hard to cope with so many things in one subject. It is as if the planners were conjuring something evil, like I don't know. A scheme to earn more money perhaps.

During the immensely torturous period of time, my brain was spinning round and round like a senseless cyclone, seven days and seven nights of true terror. I weren't really able to sleep soundly every night, as there would be horrible visions about how unprepared I am as I marched senselessly into the dreaded hall.

Anyway, putting the whole issue of stress, tension and yadda yadda behind; you know what I don't understand? Love. But not only Love, its the little stuff that may or may not come after it. Relationship. Going more into that, we can see all relationships don't turn out like in those Disney movies we love so much. The "Happily Ever After" concept.

We all know "Happy Ever After" do not exist in the human world. Heck, even Enchanted was produced to poke fun into the issue. Many reasons prohibit the availability of this concept, such as; financial issues and human nature. Going deeper into Human Nature, we can pick out one common characteristics of most spoiled relationships. Jealousy. The Green Eyed Monster. The common inability to restrain one's emotion and feeling, subjecting victims to constrains due to low self esteem.

Yeah, I can understand if you can be jealous and insecure when your lover hangs out with his/her opposite sex friends, but you cannot issue a constraining rule telling him/her not to even be in contact with the opposite gender. Unreasonable is what I call it. One's insecurity isn't valid enough a reason to cause second and third party harm. Blasphemy.

So before I rage on further, I should take a chill pill and freeze to death on this here note.
