Let the quintessence of flame burn forevermore.
The Scarlet Rose.


In the vast lands of the new continent, Granado Espada, roams throes of monsters that threaten the new civilisation.
Armed with little knowledge of dangers that lie ahead, brave pioneer families step forth to join in the war for peace.

This is where our story begins. Listen as I chronicle the adventures of the Bandeau Family, members of royal Scarlet Rose Faction.

IRAWAN... FIGHTER FROM CIAM

Irawan could possibly be the easiest rNPC to recruit into your family!

Items Required :
  1. 10 Soul Crystals

  2. 10 Hrin's Potions

  3. 10 Triumph Potions

Really simple if you bought the Pioneer Package from the premium shop!! HOHO!

What do I like about him? He has all the kungfu stances available right now, he could kick like Gracielo, punch like Jean or DO BOTH with his unique Muay Thai style of punch-punch-kick!!

I'm surprised too that they even incorporated the traditional method of blocking attacks using the shin. *thumbs-up to GE*

Equipment-wise, don't worry about finding low level stuff as Claude stocks knuckles from lv 1 onwards!

Only funny thing about this dude (oh, I named mine Light!!) is that he MUMBLES A LOT! I cannot catch anything he says!!! D:

Anyway, I managed to find this premium shop costume dedicated for Irawan from the kGE website. Not released in sGE yet but I'm so gonna get it for him.

Enjoy!

IT'S SHOPPING TIME !!
Everyone can activate their G-points now! Here's the guide from GE.

The 1st thing I bought was the Combat Manual!! (6,600 G pts)



As you can see, they are pretty strict about the timing... down to the hour!! Lol.

Haven't exactly decided on my shopping list yet but as usual, I went to check out the costumes and hats 1st!

BOSS HUNTING @ JOAQUIN PRISON


PWNED - Dragon Head



PWNED - Jabberwock Captain



PWNED - Eh, I died 1st. Hun bun solo-ed Vladimir.

We are pretty lucky to run into a boss in every map as we did Jean's quest to collect the Joaquin Diaries!

HAXOR SKELETOR ~!!!


Was happily doing my thing when hun bun made a distress call in faction chat!

He just got pwnd by the boss over at Old Port of Coimbra O:

A whole bunch of us went down to look see and hopefully seek revenge, kinda like a in-game faction outing =x (I go there kaypoh and take screenies only. HOHO)

Well, I spent most part of the process dead or cursed or cursed THEN dead so... ya.



The haxing dude can use Elemental Strife!!!!! WTF X_X

He keeps spawning little armies of Skeleton Mages! They look kinda cute running around when you zoom out... but super painful when they shoot fireballs at you T_T

Anyway, we got wiped.

ATTACK OF THE CLONES


Went to Al Quelt Moreza to do the new quests by Sir Lyndon.

Guess what I saw? Botters by the truckload~!!

The most typical setup : 2 musk + 1 scout

IAH better do something about this. But I'm sure they won't or can't. This issue with botters has been raised for the longest time. If they wanted to fix it, they would have done it long ago!

Some of the botters I reported when I'm lv 5x and training at Rion, have graduated to somewhere my current lv 7x and all continuing to bot at Joaquin Prison.

How sweet.

The most obvious change in the 'glow' is from +5 (dull yellow) to +6 (see pic).

+7 equips are brighter than +6 and it comes with a purplish shimmer!

Ahhh~~~ =x

OH! By the way, that's my new Emilia the Sage! Check out her Divine Angel Wings!

Cash Shop Catalogue! Part 1 - Do your maths
The new business model is out and its P2P with cash shop. Yup! No more freeloading my dear friends T_T

Of course, before we get emo over it, must remember:

WE ARE STILL GETTING 90 DAYS FREE GAME-PLAY!

If you have already gotten the box set, that'll be 270 days of game-play AND 30,000 G-points (cash shop currency).

Here's the price list taken from the GE website



DID YOU KNOW?

180 days of gameplay + 30,000 G-points = USD 27 x 1.5189 = S$ 41

*looks at box set*

This means the Emilia the Sage card, Soundtrack, Angelwings (if u went down to redeem) and some other random rubbish costs S$ 38.90!!! (S$79.90 - S$41)

DID YOU KNOW?

1 year of gameplay = 10,000 G-points = S$8.70 (10000/700000 x USD 40 x 1.5189)

That's like less than 10 bucks for 1 whole year of gaming!!!

DID YOU KNOW?

If you haven't buy the box set, getting rid of a bad habit can help you save the S$61 (USD 40 x 1.5189) needed for 1 year's gameplay!

Here are some money saving tips over the next 90 days!!
  1. Ask your mom to buy The Newpaper instead of paying for it yourself (90 days x S$0.70 = S$63)
  2. Bring your own water bottle to school! Scrimp on that soft drink and maybe lose some weight too! (60 school days x S$1.50 = S$90)
  3. Bring your GF to the cinema on weekdays (Mon-Thu) instead! Weekday sneak previews only cost S$7 per tix. You save S$2.50 per tix!! (12 weekday movies x S$2.50 x 2 = S$60)
