Lineage 2 Catacomb Party & Guild Wars Trapper

Finally I managed to enter Catacomb of the Witch with my Scavenger, BD and SE. Muting all sounds and setting to hide dropped items enabled me to run the game smoothly when opening 3 client. However due to the small size of the party, I was only able to bot in the first small room in the first entry into the catacomb. Attempts in entering a bigger room resulted in deaths, due to the heavy healing pressure put on my SE . In the second entry, I formed a party of 8 with an online friend. LOL, he was controling 5 characters . This time we ventured deeper into the catacomb. I was able to gather quite a lot of mithril and oriharukon ore, and top grade B accessories parts. Another good thing was we did not have to use soulshot. We left our bots running for the whole night .

As for my trapper in Guild Wars, I use him only for Alliance Battle, due to its being only a PvP character. Some people I saw very sceptical about teaming up with trapper in AB. My guess is they never played trapper in AB before. Then again, the trapper build is used only when fighting in Ancestral Land, because of the linearity of the path among the shrines to be capped. I was laughing when I saw the opponent capping team slowed down by my traps. I'm very sure they were cursing after got hit by any one I set. My point for running trapper build is to delay the opponent team. Of course sometimes it doesn't work, but most of the time it does. Below is a video of my trapper in action :

Adventure Continues

It has been a week since I last wrote in this blog. Between then and now I had been very busy with my work commitment. Went to Penang to do some hard disks replacement for our customer. It was really tiring because I didn't get enough sleep, the work had to be done at night.

Ok now back to gaming. So I loaded my BD and SE with daily unlimited access. Their vitality start from level 4 (300%). It took me almost 24 hours to take it down to level 0 (100%). Leveling outside Goddard, I simply took on the antelopes; the bandersnatches seems too much for my BD and SE due to its stunning ability. My BD died few times.

Now that I have taken my BD and SE to level 65, I can make a party of 3 to enter catacomb next week. I need to get some ancient adenas.

As for Guild Wars, I saw on the logon screen that this weekend is a Kurzick/Luxon Double Factions weekend. I think I'll do some AB. I need to work on my Allegiance Title. It will be fun, I guess.

Video : Lineage 2

Here is a video of my characters leveling just outside Goddard. Pardon for the poor video quality.

I had a strange feeling during that time. The game felt a little bit smoother than usual, although , I feel that when I was running, it was a bit slower.




The video was recorded using fraps . Not sure why it doesn't record the sound.

Guild Wars : Adventure Continues

After stopping for quite a while, I continued my adventure in Guild Wars. This time I managed to vanquish 2 more areas using heroes and henchies. The fire imps there gave me quite a problem, so i had to play hit and run, pulling little by little.
Then I played the alliance battle, AB, using my PvP character, a ranger, and my main character a monk. We won a few and lost a few. I did try few builds for the ranger, i.e. splinter barrage, and the other is the condition heavy build. It was quite fun. I played only few round with my monk but a bit bored though so mostly I played with my ranger for AB. My ranger's name is very explicit malay words so I managed to get attention from a malaysian who was also playing at the time. Till later....bubye !!
