That was crazy day. All begun when i was with GotreG and Elidara in Gigants Caves. People from alliance started sceaming that some raid boss respawned and we gonna raid him. So, OK - withe Eli we transported GotreG to quite save room in GC and ported back to Aden Town. When we arived - guess what happend? Of course someone said that we don't have to much nukers online so there will be no raid. Just great. I knew that we should wait for ally leader before we leaved current party.
Well we had to do something, so Desciples Necropolis party crystalized quite fast and couple of minuters later i get invite to party. Next fast teleport to Blazing Swamp, 2min of walk and i was at DN entrance. When i entered i saw crowd of vampires members o.O and all of htem to form one 8th person party!
LOL almost all had an alt character for buffs/healing purposes so we in aperrance looked like some crazy farmers train ;P
OK party started - because of such big quantity of buffers healers (only one healer in party - that was Eli in fact) we killed monsters with crazy speed.
We took 3 rooms, when mobs from one where dead we moved to another and the to another - co we cycling. At some point Akki said that this looks like Dayton'a race and soon we gonna finish all 1000 laps :D Hyh really crazy party we had there.
But thats not all. Because of that fast killing speed i used my MP terribly fast (1 mob = 1 spoil = 59MP). Because of that Elidara and nepo's SE (he was playing his Overlod - HisOzelot, and dual-boxing with Shillien Elder) had to rechargerd me all the time. As you can imagine it's not to fun at all to switch all the time on the another character - so nepo gave me his avadon set. Yes you seen corectlly i was running in robe set and Lance :)
He said that - robe set should be fine, i'm no tanking anyway and MP regen rate is much much faster, also i looked like Hugh Hefner ^____^
Well this last argument convinced me ;P So from that point i was running in white robe set - like real ninja dwarf :D
Believe me or not - it helped a lot (almost whole buff-round i could running without MP recharge).
After party's ends. With Slystone (necromancer), nepo and Ariel we went to Blazing Swamp play little more. Also we want to check up some spoil there. Because they killed mobs in less than 2sec. i spoiled them as a first and then couple of nukes turned monster in the dust ;)
Mobs where little bit to hight for me there but wasn't that bad.
Generallly that was really, really crazy day ^^
I hope we gonna reapeat this soon :]

As usual if this is possible we are doing some raids wit our alliance. Last time we had lil problems with farmers which kill all most valutable bosses just after their's respawn (5min later and boss is dead). This is real pain in ass.
One time we reach raid boss location while farmers where fighting with boss already - so we buffed him up to prevent killing him. Unfortunetly farmers did the same when we tryed so in the long term they get boss and went with him somewhere :P
Anyway our last raid was most sucessfull since we joined Vampires. We killed couple of bosses, and one of them droped Sealed Imperial Crusader Gaiters! That was amazing drop - and to be honest most awesome one (if we didn't count Antharas drop - there was a lot of everything :D). That was nice feeling to get those gaiters. At last we obtained something worth effort. All because developers changed drops in Chronicle 4. Now Raid Bossed drop mostly scrolls/blessed scrolls (to enchant weapon and armour) and parts. There is quite small chance to get full item drop - so when this happened we where happy like little kids :D
God job, everyone.

Few days ago Chronicle 4 went to live servers ^___^
Many people (and i'm too) waited for this day so when it became true i should be happy - right? So why i'm not? Well... as you know main purpose of being a Bounty Hunter is to search/collect various materials which are used to crafting other things. In this purpose we using our two unique skills spoil (which made internal change in the moster) and sweep (which allow us to take materials form monster). You can believe me or not but NCSoft (delevoper of Lineage 2) bugged our sweep skill. So everytime when we are using it - there is a quite big chance that game client gonna crush! Yes you see corectly - game is crushing when we try to play the way we should. But that's not all - the most funny thing is that all out party mates gonna crush too!
First day when i take party with Akki i crushed every 5min - it's insane, so i stoped spoiling/sweeping monsters :/ The bug wasn't fixed until now so i'm really pissed off (no one need BH which don't spoil monsters).
Sidenote: I'm finishing to download RF Online beta client at this moment - so i will test RFO until NC didn't fix this bug :[
To be honest it isn't that bad - i'm just feeling useless because the took my only skill. Dwarves aren't good fighters (well we are pretty familiar with pole weapon but that's all) etc. All we can do is spoiling and crafting things. In a meanwhile i bought a fishing rod and relaxing sitting at the lake and fishing :) That's really enjoyable thing.
Also i bought Hatchling of Star and try to level it up to 55lev (then he can change into Stryder form on which i will be able to ride like on mount). Too bad that i didn't noticed that my lil friend has a name already. It's complicated thing but i don't think i will be selling him so this isn't most important thing. My lil friend is called DragonPrince ^___^ and he is 38 lev at this moment :]

Two days ago, because of good quantity of ally members online - we went for some raids. The first one was in Gigant's Cave so we teleported at the entrance and start heading to his location. In last room (just before raid boss) Ludwig (our main tank) agroed whole room... guess what? He died in 30sec. later coz most of ppl was far behind him and second part thought that he can handle it. Not to good begginng ;)
So... we killed GC boss, then another in DN and teleported at DVC entrance for another. He was pretty deep in caves so this took us a little. Anyway we started fight, all was OK, and for some reason your little uncle Sylvian agroed boss! I was relly shoced.
Sidenote: I was in mele group which purpose was chain stun bosses if possible. As you know Sylvian is running with his +3 Lance, and for stunning purposes i have some NG club. With this club, when I using hammer crush i did to boss something like 5-7dmg so you should know how shocked i was when he started to attack me, while we had high level tank with us!
He agroed on me so strong that 2 tanks can't take it off from me - also he was target of ppl which make great amount of dmg - nothing helped. I started drinking Greater Healing Potions as mad coz no-one healed me (we didn't have even healer in party coz we where just a support group). So as you can imagine i died ;P
So what the hell was happened there? The only excuse could be fact that i did greatest damage and with some critical hit i agroed boss on me - but with NG blunt? Yeah sure LOL. As my clannies told me later on - Ludwig just was disconnected so we lost main tank in the middle of fight. But even in that case i shouldn't agroed him so strong.
Well believe me or not i did greatest damage :D
After that boss we killed one more. Unfortunetly non of them didn't droped anything more than materials and some dyes :/ Well maybe next time we will have more luck.

Ludwig DC'ed ;)

Greatest dmg dealer take agro :]

That was really strange day. First we couldn't play at all because NC done some maintence works - and restarted server every 5min. So greater party of our clan was laughing on our Team Speak server from warious stuff (badger, badger, badger ^^).
When server restarts stoped we went with Akki to Apostate Catacumbs - of course we did little pole party with Poranek, which is Shilien Elder. The whole trick with playing in pole party is to get Vampiric Rage buff, so you don't need normal healing mostly.
So we found proper room with green mobs for me - because they have HPx4 it's quite decent exp when we kill 4 them at the same time. We made 2 pulls when our ally member showed up - it was Munira :)
And from this point action get faster then you can imagine. I died in next 3min, and another 3min later we had new pole party and pulling something like 20 mobs at the same time o.O
But let start from beggining. Munira told us that we took one of their's rooms - but she told us "that's ok". So we pulled another 4 mobs - nothing special you may say, but... yeah it's always some 'but' :D
While we where fighting with those mobs 2Cold4u (our alliance member as well, which playing Dark Elf Warlord as his subclass) pulled couple of other rooms and run with mobs to their killing zone. When he entered our corridor all those mobs of course switched at us. So i died trained by a friend :D
After that - Cold invited us tho his pole paty (there was of course Munia, RealNemesis, and out of party SE). So we had real fun pulling and killing in less then 1 minute, amount of 20 mobs! Hell yeah - that's why you uncle Sylvian loves his pole weaon so badly ^^
With single swing i could do something like 5k dmg (20 x ~250dmg) and something like 10k dmg with Whirlwind (20 x ~520dmg)!!! Look at those screens :D
Amazing exp, amazing spoil (i can't even sweep all of spoiled mobs) and of course amazing party. Thanks friends for fun.
Here is couple of screens (sorry for quality and quantity as well but i didn't had time to take more of them, simply all was going to fast).

Did you ever thought about how dwarves looks like? As you should know this ancient long-aged race is quite unusual. Well comparing them to human standards they are only old males and young fermales - which looks little bit perv. ]:>
There is couple of maior theories and legends about that matter. But if you really want to check out how this looks like follow this link: http://boards.lineage2.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=506564&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1&vc=1
Attention: Uncle Sylvian isn't responsible for state of your mind after reading all this stuff about dwarves sex :)
Here are my favorites theories:
- Dwarves invented anti-genic cream which keep them young for ages.... but male part of dwarven community don't want to use it (it's hillarious but true ;)
- Dwarven old fermales and sending into the ocean on ice blocks (damn i can't stop laughing when i read this one)
Anyway if you want to know the truth: Dwarven females get just as old as dwarven males. However, as dwarven males age extremely fast, dwarven females do not, and remaine 'childlike' in appearance even if they have several hundred years of age behind them.
