Hmmmm.......I could only play a short time last night due to excessive laundry duty (one of the greatest downfalls of being a bachelor - I'm so lazy when it comes to laundry that when I run out of clothes, I go to my "back up storage" which is essentially a back up of boxers, socks, etc, brand new in package tucked away in my closet - rule of thumb - should the emergency supply ever be used, you must buy more to replace, resulting in me having like 120 pairs of boxers, 200 socks, etc.) OOPS! Sorry, got off on a tangent there, didn't I? So yah, anyway I was lucky enough to hit up only 2 bosses yesterday - and as the picture can show, Demon and Dopple, da double D's. Lin Pledge help with Demon and as you can see, Demon's drop was absolutely staggering......his other drop was a res scroll btw \./ Damn, Dopple actually drop me something this time - it was nzell \./

EVENT! Reply

We all heard from Cap and Kyzah that do to the "gumball" theory they can't give us any in game events. So how about a different kind of event that would increase the player/support relations. That's right I'm talking about the "WIN A DATE WITH KYZAH" event. In fact there is even someone willing to pay for the meal! I'd love to see this happen, my only question is who will fly me down from Alaska? How about it Kyzah, we can even put an age limit on it for you.

While certainly flattering, I doubt my boyfriend would approve. That said, this isn't a feasible or appropriate event suggestion, so I'm going to go ahead and close this thread now. Thanks!

And as for the girls.....um.....what the hell, I have NO PROBLEM WHATSOEVER if another girls wants to come along as well - hell, 2 on 1 = fanboys dream! Ciao!

Updates on Test?!!

I was checking out Lineage Underground and they got some screenshots from the US Test server today - they have some of the episode 2 stuff on there - you guys should go check it out. So now, I'm debating whether or not I should go make a test server character and go play it or not. Should I wait in suspense or go try it. Yah, I could report the stuff I find here, but it would be somewhat irrelevant due to the fact that I would be able to top out a character to only around level 25 before I could even think about going out and checking the stuff. By that time, the episode could be ready. And do I really want to use up more memory on my harddrive for this? grrrrr.......

Ok, this ain't a Lin post...so what? RAAAWWWWRRRRRRR!!! 

Ya know, I've attended many fights at the Top Drake area - and I'm sure you all have as well. I forget who, but someone yesterday globalled that the top drake fights were getting lame and old way to fast, which many ppls, including myself thought was funny. Well, how about a fight inside TOI? Ya know, I bitch that players have too much money - these guys obviously have WAY too much money \./ 

I joined a new pledge - due to reasons that will eventually come to light :) 

Event Update - Date with Kyzah!

Ok, here's an update with the "Offical Event put on by NC Wickedsoft."
Thus far, there have still been no brave souls to take on the challenge of asking Kyzah out on a date in order to schmooze her and get her to drop more loot. Come on folks, post on the boards and make this dream a reality! I hear she's an absolute hottie - so guys, go do your magic on her - mages, cast something on her, elves, fling that hair of yours back and forth, knights, buff up, and princes....uh....hmmmm....lessee.....yup.......uh.....true target her? I dunno :( Come on soldiers of Aden, you can do it!


And yes, it's true - out of sheer boredom/lunacy, I actually asked Kyzah out on a date. Not kidding. Anyway, here's what she responded with:

Re: Date

From: Kyzah
Received: 06/21/04 02:00 PM
Hello Wickedliquids,

Assuming that you are referring to the new items introduced to the game with the 4/14 publish, yes, these items are properly inserted into the game files as possible rare drops from certain boss monsters; according to our records, a few of these items have indeed dropped on all servers since their publish.

We'll be happy to pass along your request to increase the drop probabilities for these items, but again, please keep in mind that they are intended to be rare to balance out their power and value.

Best of luck!

Kyzah

Damn, did I just get blown off? I wish I had saved a copy of the message I wrote to her, but I didn't. Wah. Should I try again? Someone go to the boards and post a message there and tell Kyzah to come over here and check this site out. And the offer still stands - free dinner on me!

Anyway, I was the first brave soul to venture there - so who's next? You guys, who can take on Mummy Lord, Demon, Cougar, Dragons, Phoenix, yet you cannot ask a girl out? GEESH!!! Come on, get with the program!


***because of the nature of some of my posts and the ability to use four-letter words at will, I will not be asking Lineage to make me an official site.***

Ain't this cool - my rabbit's don't have to be level 48 to talk - and this is what happens when you get two bored DK's - you hunt the wastelands for t-shirts and cops cuz you're too damn lazy to make'em. O.o 

Drops of....stuff...? Top pic - came from the gazillion times I hit up the drakes. Pic from the bottom came from Necro - ghaste sb. Gawd, this was a really really god-awful weekend of drops. LINEAGE PUNK'D ME!!!! And incidentally, I find Ice Queen and I wis Knighspirit to come - she dropped nothing. Zero. Zilch. I didn't even bother with a screenshot of that - as if I needed to waste more memory on my comp for that wankah of a boss. 

So what happens to a level 52+ knight when he gets bored? Go Dark Elf morph of course! And on top of that, go to fire valley. AND on top even that - take 2 bunnies instead of dobs. In this particular screenshot, it took me around 30 minutes to get out of there cuz all I did were circles and everytime I circle around - bam, even more mops. As the middle of the pic shows - bunny level up!!! Level 24 now. Only 6 more to go.......ugh. 

Ya know, just cuz this mama got a lot of junk in her trunk, don't mean she gonna be dropping any of that junk anytime soon. There were 4 of us. Let's see.....50K (yes, it was an n-dai), divided by 4.....then we have to tip the summons.....OMG - I'm freaking rich!!!!!!!!!!!! 

I only hit up Ifrit a few times this weekend. This is my favorite pose - he's got that "stick'em up" pose from back in the day of the old black and white movies. Yah Iffy, I pimped ya - what you gonna do?? Huh?? Oh, I see, you're gonna drop me shit. Pfffffffffffffftttttt. ***Note - take a look at my bunny - I think saying "Boing Boing" is his way of saying "I just dropped some pellets" in bunny language. 

Here's a shout-out to SarinMa and LordSword - hey, what can I say - I'm a sucker for props ^^) 

Found DoppleBoss again this weekend. With minimal MR, reds held up with her nicely. And in case you want to know what she dropped - 4 mgems. Which was better than last week when she dropped nothing. 

Quote of the day - if not the fucking year. 

Wassup all!

What's up all!!! Hope you guys and gals had a great weekend of hunting and fighting and drinking and smoking and God knows what else all us evil Lineage players do. Several updates over today, so to give fair warning, for those of you who don't like to scroll, tough titties. I gotta do the whole cut, paste, blah blah blah....so it takes me a bit. Anyway, Lineage Underground's Cryster did a great update on the new TOI boss - Grim Reaper. You guys should go check it out - spell book Destroy has finally dropped and they're trying to sell it. ****POINT OF NOTE: In Crysters translation, which is correct, the players that attempted to kill Grim Reaper died 2 to 3 times. So unless you guys are willing to pay for a trip to the church - good luck!

WIN A DATE WITH KYZAH EVENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dare someone to suggest this on the boards. Maybe she'll want to shut us up and finally drop some stuff to all players. Hmmmmmm.....we got any takers out there that want to give it a shot? Maybe I can get her to read this and post.

Warning - Official Event sponsored by NC Wickedsoft!

Come on, someone out there do it; there has to be a brave soul out there somewhere!!!! - I dare ya - no, I double-dare ya - no I triple dare ya with sugah!^^!

***If you ask and she says yes, I'll pay for ya'lls dinner. (Pick something nice and upper class - not McDonalds....maybe Chilli's instead...muwahahahahah - I'll even pay for the chips n' salsa!) This is an official "event" put on by me. Pass this event on to other fellow Lineage players - maybe Cap will support it like he did with LC when he use to give a free month of Lin away :)

I tried several times to download the morph list for level 55,60,65 and 70, but it wouldn't work, so sorry :(. Anyway, this is a SS of the new morphs at the dog races - it appears that there are many many many more level 65+'s out there that I thought. O.o 

Da' Weekend !!!

As most of you know, I'm doing this at work - and Knightspirit is doing the same ^^. Anyway, I ain't gonna be here this weekend to update - I'll be on game. But check back Monday, cuz I'll probably have a ton of screenshots and more updates from Korean servers (I may update here this weekend if there is something really REALLY interesting or big from them). So, in the meantime, I'll finish out today with maybe a few more posts. If not, have a great weekend and good hunts! Ciao!

Where'd all the pics go??!!

HAHAHA! Where the hell did they go??? In the archives! I realized that with the possibility of NUMEROUS updates a day, a singe days worth of posts could require a significant amount of scrolling (I should work my fingers out more - so lazy). So, instead of archiving this stuff weekly, which could have resulted in HOURS of scrolling, I've changed it to archive daily - if you want to go back and check on stuff, go to the right of the page, it's right below my Caspa Count. Speaking of which, because I am absolutely determined to get a new item from them, I've actually kept up count. I'm a nerd. So? I've actually kept count since the last update when they first introduced all the new items. Anyway, that count will stop once I get a SINGLE item to drop. Hmmmm...I will continue to ask Kyzah out on a date till she makes something drop to me (yah, I actually PM'd her and asked her out on a date if she'd freaking drop me something - go to lineage junkies - I posted her response ^^. We shall see :)

Here's a shout out to Knightspirit giving me props in game ^^! You guys should also check his website as well http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=lineage_bushido It's pretty tight. And finally, you can see what Ice Queen drop me. *sigh* 

I REALLY look forward to the next episode - the Dire Bears look rocking. But I thought they were gonna be in TOI...this one's in the desert....hmmmmm 

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

You CANNOT tell me LITO would NOT rock in the US Servers - I'd love to take on Ken or LoA. Muwahahahahhaha 

WOW!!! That DEATH KNIGHT menu background absolutely rocks!!!! Can that only be done with a Mac? If anyone knows how to do this, email me please - this is sooooo damn cool! 

Whoa....what is this??? Hmmm...maybe something different coming out with the Cross Rancor episode next month.... 

HAHAHAHAHA!!!! I dunno why, but I find these screenshots to be the absolute best - bunch of dead peeps laying around. I tried to get a screenshot during the Valakas event, but it never dawned on me. A little bit different than the DI Dragon Event, eh guys? hehehe 

Just a screenshot I picked up from GameJok.com - why? Cuz I haven't seen a dragon in so long I almost forgot what they look like. And Anthras here is taking on a Godzilla pose - he does look like 'Zilla, don't he? 

The DK with bunnies??!!!

I know many of you have seen a lone DK deep in FV hunting with bunnies and have laughed at that DK - SO? hehehe....now look here, I just leveled 2 bunnies to level 23 and it has been extraordinarily difficult. Thus far, they can take a hit or two from fire archers and warriors, but lava golems and astagio's are still one hit to them. Many elves and some mages, I'm sure, use the new pets and can out level a knight with a pet at almost any given day I think. For those of you who have lower level pets, or just flat out gave up, keep trying!!!! Here's why; when these bunnies have full mp (they regen their MP at about 3 mp every 2-3 seconds - very very fast), have you guys seen them cast COC? At level 23, with full mp, they can nearly destroy a fire archer or do significant damage to a fire warrior. With full mp, they average 4 to 12 casts of COC. Yes, I said 12!!! I counted yesterday in which several times, between the two bunnies, they would cast 10 to 12 coc's - I killed a fire warrior in 2 swings O.O! However, their melee attack is just awfull. So, hope that all you bunny users get good mp level ups on your pets.

The BUNNIES OF DOOM!!! hehehe 

Much Appreciated!

Thanks to all the shout outs that players have been giving me via email, chat box, or in game! It's much appreciated and I'll keep posting as much as possible. I did want to make a note; there maybe a few days where there does not seem to be any, or less than normal, updates - I get all my stuff from Gameabout.com or GameJok.com. When they don't have any new info, then I probably won't either. But, thanks for visiting, please come often and if you have any suggestions or see an update that I missed, email me at Wickedliquids@yahoo.com, and I'll do my best to get to it. Good Hunting!

Now dang! Wouldn't it be nice for the US Lineage customers to get such a nice quidebook for the new episode release like they did in Korea? Wow, look at this thing....so pretty......... 

Tigers Tigers Tigers

Just cruising about the various sites and I come across this at Gameabout. Currently on Korean Test Servers, there is a new pet that has been released Tigers!. From what I understand, they are suppose to be significantly stronger than dobermans. So the only question remains - are they slow like snow tigers?I guess we'll find out in, what? Six months? A year? Never?

Go to the Aden Kennel - not to purchase tigers, but for the AC and attack teeth. You can't buy the tigers from the stores - they'll have to be tamed. 

From what I can tell, the tiger AC and attack teeth are by far the strongest of all the pets.
