Castilla Relic

Castilla Ruin (1.5) & Castilla Relic
(Castilla Raid w/ Faction)

The most top and most bottom warps will lead you to Castilla Relics, the middle warp will lead you to King Henry which will spawn within a time-frame (not going to disclose timing).
To access each warp you will need 1x Ancient Relic, and the warp to King Henry will require 5x Ancient Relic.

To enter Castilla Relic mission, you will require 1x Ancient Gold Relic.

1st Boss: Diablo, when its hp is around half or so, it will split into 3 mini diablos that are immune to any damage for around 2-3 minutes. The mini diablo's damage is quite high.

The trap rooms, there will the bolts firing from both sides. All you need to do is to run through.
There will be around 3 similar rooms after each boss.

2nd boss: Lava Leaf.

3rd Boss, I believe one of the few tempest "generals". He will summon alot of mobs during the boss attack. The mob knockback rate is extremely high, so clearing the mobs will be a good idea. This boss drops Roulette Box.

I got pawnt (rofl)

4th Boss, This boss drops normal loots.

5th Boss, This Boss drops Roulette Box.

6th Boss, Nana. Drops normal loots, this boss will be abit of a challenge because of her size. She is the size of a normal character and there will be mobs around so targetting her might be a problem.

After killing her, next boss will be Tempest.

The Cut-Scene

This is tempest's AOE, once it starts walking away it will cast this aoe. It kills 3/4 of the squad and is the strongest and biggest aoe of his.

As the fighting Tempest, he will summon his "generals", and his "generals" will summon mobs to attack you as the same as before when fighting him before tempest.

He will constantly summon all this generals to attack you periodically.

After killing him. Yes, I fricking got a damm summon bear walker ring. -.-

I have temple screenshots, I will post sometime later when im less busy with work.

Castilla Minesperiment

Castilla Mines

(An Experiment)

You get the 1st medal right as you step into the mines, 1st attempt using melees.

1st Attempt: Failure! Basically, Basilisk 1hitko-combo my 2 melees, and before my scout could reach them, got killed as well.

2nd Attempt: Similar Fate.

3rd Attempt: 

Get some friends!

We managed to down Basilisk with no problem, and also at an incredible speed. 

Yay, dead Basilisk, next!.... (As seen on the face) Chrysalist can only be hit by ranged characters. Thank goodness i has friends :P

Basically, to do in a squad it took around 30-45 mins on average. Lesser resources consumed as well, I only used my remaining hrin (Asoka isnt on hrin). The downside would be farming of ancient relic pieces would be reduced. But more loots for all, we've tested using a mule as well its capable of receiving loots from the roulette box. (Yes i foresee retards copying our ideas of bringing mule family into castilla mines for free once a day and saying its "their discovery", i know those biscuit loving animals would do it definitely)

I managed to do 5-6 runs with squad, but was not contented.. yet.

Solo Attempt:

Success!

In my solo attempt, i used:

1x 1hr hrin

1x heart choco

2x 5000 HP pot

2x TF

2x SC

1 hour 20 minutes

loots:

7x 100 chips

2x vet chips

2x moonstone

2x sunstone

mega random stoof

ores,e84,level 100s,pgb (from roulette)

20+ Ancient Relic Pieces

3x Gold ancient relic pieces

The hardest part would be Basilisk, once it gets low hp, it 1hitkos a character. Thus i SC-ed once my 2nd char hit the dirt. After Basilisk, everything else to me was a cakewalk only thing annoying was the long HP and the fact that each mob can only be hit by 1 skill (unlike boss monsters). Also, the guards around deka drop 2-3 relic pieces, so yea i spent time killing them to farm extra pieces. 

Oh yes, i emo/rage mined past 7 attempts. Deadbeat now.

Things to Note:

-Basilisk, Argus, and Dekaravia will each drop a Roulette Chest upon defeat.

-Chrysalist will drop nothing.

-The rest of the main bosses will drop an assortment of Mega Ores (including Mega Quartz), Feso Stones, Relic pieces, and some other miscellaneous materials.

-The mobs range from WL/UD/LL/Daemon/Human, basically each zone has different types of race and also 2 flying mobs. So enjoy switching your racial weapons.

Dr Torsche's Basement Raid

Dr Torsche's Basement!

Guide:
http://bookofwind.blogspot.com/2010/05/mission-dr-torsches-mansion-basement.html

Basically, to start the raid: Minimum of 2 Maximum of 4.

Overview of the whole raid

Running into the first room

The second room

Yes, this is the amount of mobs that will be attacking you if you are at the middle of the room, the whole raid is lifeless be it mobs or boss. Each mob killed will drop a stone.


As you advance into each room, it gets harder and harder the mobs hit harder as well as has more amount of health.

This room, the 6th is the HARDEST of all rooms. You will be knocked back every few seconds or even consecutively for 2-3 times in a row. The AOEs HURT alot and your will not be able to cast any spells except instant cast ones.

The Last Room.

In this room, the most annoying thing is armor crasher which is very constantly affects your characters. Each time you get armor crashed, you will definitely die. The mob attack damage is quite high unless your are wearing ELNs, get ready your resuscitation potions.

Recommended armor for this raid would be at least LN and above, and hrins is a must!!

We managed to clear all 7 rooms, but apparently the warp that was suppose to appear on the 7th room did not appear due to a bug? Going to try again soon when im free from my work and part time study schedules.

Been busy and lots of screenshots have been stacking up in my SS folder, will back-date blog about them when im free!

Tension Relief Arsene

Tension Relief Arsene!!!

Arsene with just tension! Picture tells a thousand words!

I will be coming back from my Haitus around the end of the month for a short period of 1 month to finish up my project ania as well as random afk and attempt to train my family level to 48+3 which is my ideal and dream family level.

My new laptop GFX

Ive just gotten my new ACER Aspire 4740G (Thanks mum for like once).

Intel Core i3 330M (2.13GHz, 3MB L3 cache)
NVIDIA GeForce 310M (Up to 1279MB TurboCache)
2GB Ram
320GB HDD
14" LCD
Windows 7

Awesome, finally i get a upgrade from my old laptop (which actually still works) its been around 4 years for my old laptop which is running a Intel Core 2 at 2.0GHz and lowsy graphics card. Finally now i can run GE on high gfx settings and not feel the lag, but ive still set my texture on second. Here are few screenshots of me doing infiltration which i have not done in ages and arsene on my new laptop. Finally i am able to see circus skills since i have reinstalled the 4.5 full client. Screenies below; which was taken from a 4man-fighter arsene (1 female actually).

Fighter Arsene Screenshots

2nd Generation Old School Arsene

2nd Generation of Old School Character Arsene

Now, our generation chracters for arsene have evolved with the usage of Flintlock which increased the efficiency and speed of arsene, but nevertheless we have not forgotten the nolstalgic feeling of doing arsene with older characters faced out before the arrival of Flintlock arsenes.

1st Generation: Grandice/Scout/Ele/Fighters/Claude/Musketeer(Outrage)
On crummy e92s and level 100s. Experts/Veterns and few Masters

As the world of sGE evolves, us players constanly move forward, our armors and weapons get upgraded; new characters are trained & new costumes purchased and so on so forth. Thus our 1st generation arsene has been faced out, using old school characters to do a nolstalgic arsene has also taken its toll on changes, take example our armors have been upgraded 1 tier from 28DR armors to 29DR armors, non masters have been promoted to masters and costumes have been changed. My grandice was sold and now use fighter instead, Delkhaze has used a Hellena instead of her Elementalist but sadly there are no 2nd generation scouts. Family level has also risen, therefor it was no longer the good 'ol days where we struggled to finish each arsene, but nevertheless it was fun to revive the old days of our struggling arsene days.

Speed Arsene: 4Minutes 50Seconds

2 Levis in 1 day, 1 Elite 1 Normal.... what a cold day.
