ostrich syndrom

Ok I've had blinkers on this week trying to get my Musk mastered, Which I finnally managed after 2 good days and laggy DC day in CSA, YEY! the first family master.
This left alot of unfinished task:
  • Vet Thumper (Jose) done
  • Vet Ponce (Andre) done
  • Vet Cath(STR) 87 and counting
  • Stance level Seige burst 18/25 Yuk!
  • Get Enhanced tactics for Servant (Sco) done
  • Get a Silver Rosario done
  • Test the "Capybara Mine Passage" loot tables in progress
In other family related news The guilds first Master was not my Musk but was instead a STR built NAR, And the progress of Misc. Pioneer characters has increased the family total level to 26 (42%) so a nice increase in ATK and HP again.
Will go into more detail of the activities and the few notable equips in the next day or two.

The importance of bellem's boxes

Alot of players disregard the importance of bellem's boxes to the economy of our servers but this is usually because they are quick to forget they were once new themselves.

These simple items are the best training aid in the game, they show new players first hand the scale of the learning curve within the game, exposing them to:
Equipment:
  • The levels
  • Enchantments
  • Racial Modification
  • Unique abilities
  • How to identify NPC foder/What to combine into enchantment chips

Lobbies:
  • The basics of Instancing missions
  • Co-ordination/Team work
  • Colonies (Attack/Defence) basics
  • Bossing
  • The reward chests System

Consumables:
  • The various Healing items (individual/MCC3)
  • Basics of Buffs (Att/HP overwrites) 
  • The Elemental bonuses (Buche de Noels)
  • Penetration/Imunity (Stabilisers/Magic/Spiritul Shields)
  • Teleport Scrolls (Basics of getting around)

Misc.
  • Boss Keys
  • Enchantment Chips
  • Spinelles
  • Crafting Materials (Mega/Pure)

Contained within these boxes is almost everything you need to get started in the game and yet many guilds who recruit new players never even mention these items.

And not to be forgotten, these items are still the best way without a heavy initial real cash donation to get them selves some viz, filling the MM with the much needed item's many established players don't have the time to farm for anymore.

  • 50 Mega Talts
  • 3,446,250 Viz from Junk
  • 92u Rifle / 92u Fire Bracelet
