Congratulations Jason. There's a reason other than death that you keep a Priest outside the room for Dooring people back into the fight...unless they fixed that.

Umm... what other option?


Doesn't work... Maybe my quests got messed up somehow...
O_o

Okay, I've gotten all my login stuff, now I get into the game and 5 seconds after I get in it logs me out.. I've shut off my firewall, allowed access to the game, turned off AIM, MSN, winamp, all unneccesary programs.. nothing is helping :/ anyone know what to do?

[Chromer]

Emm, I've been trying to figure that out for the last 3 weeks. Good luck with it. =/

[banditcom]

Eh Squeek? You can't reenter the fight. The party has to all enter before the leader can enter... :S

Plus we didn't plan to do any more than the arms anyways.. haha.. It wasn't serious. A serious one is shortly, and I'll have 30 sets on me + many sets on friends who I know will live to the last arm, where they'll trade over old stars for new ones.

[falconsfan14]

How long does it take to kill zakum or whatever hes called?

[PsYcHoZeRoSk8eR]

DAMN! Bandit! How long do you think until your party will be able to get past all of the arms? And then how long until you can take down all of it (yes, i realize that there are still more parts, 3 i believe)?

Anyways, I never thought I'd see someone from ffr at Zakum already, thats just nuts imo.

[banditcom]

It greatly depends. CMS's record is just under 24 minutes. O_O It would take us a few hours, I think... It took us almost 3 hours to do the 7 arms.. haha

[Afrobean]

Something I just realized:

Do mages use Magic Guard and mash MP pots? I mean, if the priest gets sealed, it would be a while before they can mash heal again. I'd think the mages would die in the time it'd take the priest to dispel it.

Or do they mash unagis or something when the priest gets sealed?

[ToshX]

Isn't there an item you can buy that gets rid of the seal? Like a potion of some sort.

all cure

But why use that when priests can cast max dispel and it gets rid of seal 100% of the time for all party members in the radius?

How much are Work Gloves worth? A long time ago I bought one from a guy for $7,000. But I sold it during hard times. Now when I see them in the FM they're going for about 1-5 million.

...

I can sell you like 40 work gloves for 1mil each if you're willing to pay it.

Depends how nicely scrolled they are.
When I was around 2x it confused me cause people were selling them for millions and I made mine for less than 2k (including materials). People scroll work gloves a lot because they're common, so if you mess up a glove you're not restricted to sell it within your class. gloves scrolled with ATK are usually very high in price. DEX gloves are usually lower.

ATK glove: 1 mil - 60 mil +
DEX glove: 150k- around 9-10 mil

depending on stats.

Becuase if hitting the All Cure button and then healing is faster than Dispel + Heal they'd do that instead.

Also, as far as using MG, I'd figure it depends. A mage can't really handle Zakum until later than most people, from what I can tell (over 120 rather than over 100-110 for other classes), prolly because it's easy to die. HB adds 60% HP, so by the 80s mages can have ~1600hp with HB (I have barely over 1000 by level 81), so I imagine by the 100s or 120s could have well over 2k hp(~15 hp per level * 20-30 levels = 300-450 more hp * 160% from HB = 480-720 more hp + 1600 they already have). Biggest hit I saw in bandit's SSes was a little over 2k, so a mage with HB (and maybe a few HP adding gears just for benefit, a 100%'d pig headband gives 136 hp with HB on) would be able to take a hit from Zakum easy. If I went Zakum'ing I'd prolly carry pots that could heal 2k HP with me just in case the priest was sealed.

Also, remember that mages have bomb ass defense and prolly a point in PR (23% dmg reduction with one point) so they most likely don't take as much damage as banditcom, who doesn't have MG to save him in case the cleric is sealed, and he was just fine.

Also, I just thought of this, but couldn't 2 priests + 4 DKs easily kill Zakum alone? Either of the DK moves can hit at least 2 of the arms at once, couldn't they? One priest could heal constantly and the other could dispel constantly (with that dispel'er sometimes casting HS). The DKs could have a point in ER too so they'd take way less damage, but I don't think it'd be too hard to do with just priests and DKs. Only problem would be accuracy, but Zakum has crap for avoid and Bless's +20 accuracy buff would do plenty.


Oh bandit, I don't see it in the SSes, but did any of the DKs use sacrifice at all? It's 350% dmg instead of 510% with buster, but that takes 3 hits and Zakum is bound to have bomb ass defense, so I dunno if sacrifice would make a difference or not. *shrug*

[banditcom]

Level 16 web. XD


They use buster, especially when there are multiple arms. However I do believe sacrifice would be better for any DK 115 or lower, as defense counts more the lower level you are in comparison to the monster's level.

Anyways... I went in with too many stars and not enough pots. But that didn't matter, as too many people had ****ty deaths and dc's... :/

[Lightknight924]

Awesome.

Another question: How come some quests that appear on hidden-street don't always....exist. Like this one quest in Ludi 'Just Another Day At Work' is where I have to talk to an NPC named Manager Karl to start the quest but the little light bulb icon doesn't appear above his head. And the quest is for level 10 and up people.

[Chromer]

So did you guys beat it or did you just get raped at the end? XD

Also, Another Day At Work starts the dreaded Roly-Poly quest where you must literally go down all 100 floors of EOS Tower to find 10 Roly-Poly guys and take their pictures. I've only gotten 3 pictures so I don't know what the reward is.

In other news, I've finally gotten out of Level 48 and I plan to get to 49 by this weekend.

Jason this next question is for you. I just turned Level 24 on my sin and I now have Keen Eye Maxed, L7 maxed, and Nimble Body at 15. I'm afraid because now I won't have enough SP to finish NB, get the Req for Threaten (w/e it's called) and be able to max Dark Sight before 2nd job. Do I need to restart or what? =(

[TheRapingDragon]

That's what I was wondering. Seemed to be left on a cliffhanger.

[Chromer]

The suspense is killing me! XD
