After section A is cleared move to section B to check if there's any mob left/falling down from section C section B+C (1 person) : clear initial spawns of section B and then climb up to clear section C, this is straightforward and as long as you trust your BR partner, you don't even need to worry about the Eyes dropping down when you climb the rope. for GR side section D (1 person) : either by walking through section F do a clockwise cleaning up or drop down doing counter-clockwise, both are fine. I prefer counter-clockwise way because of the shorter path to reach the rope when I have to climb up. section E (1 person) : the main task here is to block Crystal Boars from falling down. Clear right side first while keeping an eye on boars approaching the "gap" from left side. ONLY after making sure there's no other boar will spawn at lower part section E that you can start climbing up. section F can be cleared by anyone, there is only initial spawn here and they will never leave the platform - Stage 3 (code stage) Details in this stage are well covered by APQ guide. In case you are still not familiar with the possible sequences, I found this a good start point to think about : 11111 / 12222 / 22333 / 33344 / 44445, when bottom has 5 corrects /4/3/2/1, and all their permutations. Stage 3 code stage I don't know how many people noticed this but the slimes don't have a touch hitbox thus why I always stand on the small edge platform of left side "2" when I'm leading. Here i can click on npc while keeping some distance from the boars spawned. How to stop Geist Balrog's infinite TP-attack TLR Stay in the blue zone to allow it using lightning attack. Pay attention to who is currently getting the aggro. to elaborate, Geist Balrog has 4 skills: 1 lightning attack, animation same as Crimson Balrog you can see on the flight between Orbis&Ellinia, during the animation it's touchable to players, this attack has shorter reach as blue area shown above 2 tp-claw attack, untouchable iframes, this attack has wider reach as red area shown above 3 weapon/magic cancel, animation same as lightning, touchable to players, only uses once in a period of time 4 dispel, no animation, this doesn't 100% affect on all players in range, if you are thief/bucc, you should always haste/si again before entering bonus, regardless of whether you were dispelled or not If the aggro target stays within red area (outside blue area), balrog can only use it's tp skill and here we go. This situation usually starts with ranged attackers (NL, Archer, NL, Sair, NL, NL, and NL) pushing it away to some distance. To break the infinite loop, either you move your lazy ass or you wait until next 10 seconds when it re-casts weapon/magic cancel and bet on something will change during this 1 second vulnerable animation. By understanding these 4 skills you're able to explain the scenarios happened in all of your previous boss stages. Bonus Stage You only need 1 pet, any more is just trouble maker, unless the Haster in your party dc and you need pets for speed/jump anyways. Weapons for bon: Spoiler: usable weapon list faster(3) (○) / fasterer(2) (◎) if +2nd job Booster or SI : fruit knife (all classes) Fusion Mace (warrior, mage) Field Dagger (warrior, thief) Pig Illustrated (all classes) and other more.. fast(4) (?) / fasterer(2) (◎) if +2nd job booster or SI : Broomstick (all classes) Red Craven (NL) GDK, Kanzir, 99% of the daggers (Shad), except for Lv50 Shinkita Lv75 Kebob Red Whip (all classes) Sword (Lv.0) (all classes) and other more.. fast(5) (x) / faster(3) (○) if +2nd job booster or SI / fasterer(2) (◎) if +2nd job booster and SI : Sparta/Carabella/ST (Hero, Paladin) and some more.. Long reach weapon fast(5) (x) / faster(3) (○, ◎ for spawn #1 #2 #5 #6) if +2nd job booster or SI : Bamboo Spear (all classes) Fishing Pole (all classes) Gold Surfboard (all classes) and some more.. Special weapon (see below spawn #4 guide) fast(5) (x) / faster(3) (○, ◎ for spawn #4) if +2nd job booster or SI : Heart Wand (all classes) Maple Bow Lv35, 43, 64, 77 (BM) Maple Crossbow Lv35, 64, 77 (MM) (NOT Lv43) Streetlight (all classes) Knuckles are bad for their short reach. Elie map guideline for each spawn & class No Secret bon - these are the routes I've been doing for more than 1 year since Elie map became a prevalence. I wouldn't gurantee they're always the best but they worked out 99% of the time. Spoiler: my opinion on uwu map Some people might say uwu map is a better map. Yes in terms of it's overall easier paths. You do hit boxes more comfortably with uwu map. No in terms of uneven numbers of boxes being divided into each section. Imo in public runs, some people who grind APQ a lot will eventually fight for spawn #3 to maximize the use of daily 4*N runs. At spawn #3 If doing on mage character it's basically 17 boxes and even 18 is possible with SI, while other spawns give 14, 15, 15, 16, 14/15. Spoiler: #1 - 16 boxes - in spawn #1 you can return back at any point so there's no need to wait for dropping 2/16 difficulty: ○○ Spoiler: extra tip for NL after breaking the 2 boxes you can Flash Jump onto this platform to help spawn #3 by hitting this 2-box a few times but not breaking it, time will still be enough 3/16 5/16 difficulty: ○○ 7/16 difficulty: ●○ 9/16 difficulty: ○○ 10/16 12/16 difficulty: ●● 14/16 difficulty: ○○ 16/16 difficulty: ○○ Spoiler: #2 first of all please answer the following question: Given the situation of the screenshot below, Where should you pay attention to? [cjeai9eji] Spoiler: answer [i014042j0we] anyone failing the test should avoid doing spawn #2 - 15 boxes - in spawn #2 you can return back at any point so there's no need to wait for dropping 2/15 difficulty: ○○ 4/15 difficulty: ●○ 6/15 difficulty: ○○ 8/15 difficulty: ○○ 10/15 difficulty: ○○ 11/15 Spoiler: extra tip for mage you can do tp-hit between these 2 boxes this will save you 3 seconds with which you can brb making coffee/tea/noises whatever 12/15 14/15 difficulty: ○○ 15/15 Spoiler: #3 - 15 or 16 boxes - this will be a little more verbose but the general idea is to decide whether you should wait or not. After some disgesting it's actually not as complicated as you might think. 2/16 difficulty: ○○ now if you are mage, move to this 1-box 3/16 for other classes without SI, skip this box if you are NL or with SI, you can try this box but the time will be tight after. Depends on situation you might skip another 1-box instead (mentioned soon), which leads to the same result as if you just skip this box from the very beginning. 4/16 for mage, do not wait for dropping, after breaking this box immediately telepert down to the next 2-box for NL you can do the same thing but if you don't feel confident with the flash jump to come back (mentioned soon), wait for dropping for other classes, wait for dropping and if no targets(apple, pineapple, basket, etc), move on to the next 2-box 6/16 difficulty: ○○ 8/16 difficulty: ○○ now, in the meantime items are dropping, if there's any apple on the right side: for mage, teleport from here to make a come back for NL, do this jump to make a come back for other classes, it's gg, maybe your friend at spawn #5 will pick them for you 9/16 for mage, use tp+hit method to hit next 1-box together for other classes, - if your pet is on the same platform with you, don't wait for dropping, move on to the next box, if it's not the case, wait for dropping - usually I'd skip this box if I reach this platform at timer lower than 0:28, if it's 0:30-0:32 I know i'm good if apple from this box drops into the wall and you can't see it, it's here, don't try to loot them by yourself, your pet will smartly find them when you hitting 13th, 14th boxes 10/16 do not wait for dropping 12/16 difficulty: ○○ Spoiler: this can be tricky troooooooooooooooolling petpetpetpet 14/16 difficulty: ○○ wait for dropping 16/16 (15/16 if skipped 3rd or 9th box) difficulty: ○○ manually clean up the ground while items are dropping, this might save you a last second apple Spoiler: #4 - 15 boxes start from this 2-box 2/15 difficulty: ○○ if you're mage, don't wait for dropping, teleport down to the next 2-box for other classes, wait for dropping (for NL you can choose to not wait, see spawn #3 guide) 4/15 difficulty: ○○ 6/15 difficulty: ○○ wait for dropping 8/15 difficulty: ○○ 10/15 difficulty: ○○ wait for dropping while moving here 12/15 difficulty: ○○ 13/15 14/15 15/15 for the last box, jump+hit and here comes the fun part. If using a random weapon, fruit knife(dagger) for example, some of the wielding animations don't generate a large enough hitbox that will make the hit happen, therefore you might not have enough time to break the box. for BM/MM, use a fast bow/crossbow (switch weapon before entering bon), with your 2nd job booster it becomes faster(3) which is same as fruit knife w/o SI , AND it allows you to consistently jump+hit the last box, very easily. for Warrior/Shad without SI (pending test) for Bucc/Warrior/Shad with SI use a Heart Wand or Streetlight, these wands with SI have faster(3) attack speed, AND they have only 1 wielding animation therefore you're able to do the same thing as BM/MM do here. Spoiler: #4 different path for NL/Sair after breaking this 2-box, jump down to the 1-box and FJ to the left you know what to do afterwards Spoiler: #5 - 16 boxes Spoiler: #6 - 15 boxes - in spawn #6 you can return back at any point so there's no need to wait for dropping 1/15 2/15 4/15 difficulty: ○○ 6/15 difficulty: ○○ 7/15 9/15 difficulty: ○○ 11/15 difficulty: ○○ 13/15 difficulty: ○○ 15/15 difficulty: ●○ Spoiler: difficulty explanation difficulty = difficulty of the positioning that allows you to poke 2 boxes at once ○○ you can hit 2 boxes easily without thinking much ●○ still easy to snap but you probably can't do this very carelessly ●● you need to pinpoint the position, however it's generally okay to just separately hit them one by one or use the left poke right poke method Spoiler: WHOSE APPO WAS THAT? I GOT THEM FROM SOMEWHERE. DID YOU LOOT MY APPO? DID I LOOT YO APPO? DDI MY PET LOOT YOUR APPLE? DID YOUR PET LOOT MY APPO? DID ANYONE SEE MY APPO? SOMEONE TOOK MY APPLE AND I DONT EVEN KNOW IF THAT WAS MY APPO. The simple solution to all these questions is to revert update#87 so people will start thinking about how to play the game [fjew9ajffe] Party members order underhood Spoiler
dissection 1 this one was done at ~20241220 during christmas event when i was trying to figure out the rules for players under -5 mob level. at that time i made a mistake (can see in my old exp formula thread) that led to a false assumption and calculation error, that one was close but still left a question mark in my head for a long time. at 20260401 i inspected the screenshots around that period and from 2 of them snapped 2 weeks before, i found an indirect evidence that proved i made this mistake, and fixed my assumption. this is accurate now, hopefully 241220 NMM level 160 hp 430m

actual exp gain which is going to be the major bottleneck of this project. probably won't have any notable update until i find the source of the -1 error. also big thanks to scotty's library, helped a

doesn't happen often but if it happened i'll take it, i know why and how accidentally failing to iframe laser while clearing mobs with bstep-bot macro? doesn't happen often but if it happened i'll take it, i know why and how the sudden game freeze right before vl starts laser animation? my biggest enemy, i can easily make wrong decision by this kind of random game freeze, i dont know why this happens sometimes and i dont know why it doesn't happen on the other skill animations, only when laser miss/shadow shifter laser? not allowed 10-man in bougie, dps was not good can already see that from b1 50%. b2 started at ~47:30 my pally range is okay-ish(12.4k) but not specifically strong in terms of average pally-main players i've seen in 12-man(12.6k-13k+) i do have strategy to boost my dps thats very different from the traditional playstyle most pally players have got used to so even if it's 10-man i signed my pally along with my other chars i need more runs to verify the actual dps difference between those 2 playstyles tho, but basically i believe this strategy gives me an observable amount of dps improvement bcuz i have made many smooth 12-man runs and even whited vl in those runs quite some times, and keep in mind when gargs/golems are up i focus on mob clearing - im not like another auf-ed bucc player who been struggling to use more barrage/demo when all other ppl are struggling to clear the mobs and that guy shares his POV telling ppl to learn and says im so good i whited vl everytime bucc so strong. btw this guy is still getting rock/laser from time to time. this is fucking hilarious that one can hide all the dishonesty by making friends joining strong vl group so that ppl will clear mobs for him and he can claim shit and shit lmao. if i'd have to say this is just dogshit/bullshit/whatever animal u like and straight up trolling/griefing gameplay, i rather run with a 10k bucc who knows how to do the thing and who actually plays well with demo/dragon strike switching than run with this 14k+ bucc who's just the manifest of selfishness bcuz of the fact this 10k bucc will simply do better than this 14k+ bucc. disclaimer although i mentioned this guy here when im talking about a vl run in bougie, this guy is not in bougie.with this range my pally can sometimes white 1-2 gargs with se, but when i whited random 1 garg without se (i was put in shad pt) and it's a 10-man run, i knew something might be wrong here(we didn't have an auf-ed shad this time but this is not the problem) i almost wanted to call out gelt-ing early from b2 start but ended up just trusting ppl here bcos why not at ~32:00 b2 10% our 2nd favorite vl skill combo happened: gargs, + golems, + jail u know what's the next event when pally the tier SS golem clearer got sent into jail (shad bucc are tier A) - the fest for vl ate like 5 golems i came out of jail while looking for my gelts in inventory and at the exact moment rocks popped up i clicked on my gelt in inventory trying to move them to quickslot, this action stopped my char moving and although there was a gap i managed to squeeze in, i didn't have time to unmount and died, noob here comes the interesting section: why did i not have time to unmount? it's because the 280 ping, this fucking 280 ping without vpn would not allow me to unmount quickly enough. when u use the monster rider skill ur client sends a request or something like that to the server, and then server says okay to ur client then u will finally mount/unmount. this delay can kill u, yes, in some extreme situations like this when u need that low ping. this little bit unfairness exists in every corner of this game. if i share my video with ppl who have lower than 200 ping they will not believe it and they're going to think i'm hacking. do u know that, when i hold down arrow key ↑ while walking through a portal to the other map, i can walk pass through the portal, moving 1 char long then finally get into map transition black screen. do you know that, when there's a drop game, someone drops something onto the ground letting other ppl loot, a higher ping player will never be able to loot it before a lower ping player does, bcuz lower ping client will always receive the message from the server earlier and render the item dropped on the ground faster. do you know that, by the same logic, after a lhc party(bw, golem) low ping players will have their full loads of equipments to sell to npc while high ping players can only loot a few, if those happened to drop to the spot where there's no one else? apples for low ping players are free while it's not the case for high ping players. more and more lets talk about another interesting thing. i was once told to not ress people under the rocks when i didn't do that at all, and i was like "????". if u read my shit talk above u prob can figure out why. on my screen vl just finished the previous attack animation, but on some really low ping players' screen, they see vl has started the next animation which is rocks.(260403) did a test today, found that normally if u just hold the arrow key and click inventory, ur char will not stop moving, but if u hold arrow key, and jump at least once, then click inventory, ur char will stop. what a trap (260403) too much irrelevant shit talk here ok so we gelting after this. entered b3 at ~27:30. u know... gelt gives u nice little dps boost but it's not all cure potion for every scuffed run, this run we started b3 pretty late, i decided to use 1 vl pot mid way of this first gelt. catched up the pace after b3 70%. when vl pot expired it's ~12:00 at ~30%, used 2nd gelt to finish this. cleared at 05:51. nothing special happened during b3. too much shit talk here... very few deaths but just dps kinda low for some reason, overall pretty good run. honestly i have a theory why dps was low in this run but im not going to talk about it here, maybe some time 260405 so lets talk about the different pally mode traditionally when u play on pally u want to dodge rocks, crouch bird, jump laser, and rush lightning. everyone starts from here and stops here. if u willing u can try to skip rushing lightning, so everytime vl uses lightning u gain ~1 more blast dps which is very nice. when doing this way u might also want hw10 on your hand for dangerous moment when crazy skull expiring + laser/rock/bird how about doing this more aggresively, knowing that all these attacks are 1-frame hitbox generation, this is what we can do: dodge easy rocks, jump laser, rush bird, rush hard rocks, ignore lightning, and rush laser/rocks when crazy skull is about to expire. , going to upload some of my pally vl to illustrate here we go, some comments update later more uploads when i dig them out.... f ???????? know ur vl dps need a few items: b3 exp gain: leave ur party before b3 dies, /1.1 if u have hs, -200m if u did last hit(u will see about 300m exp). can also stay in party but need ppl's cooperation which is impossible for someone not having friends how long u been fighting vl in b3: b3 start time b3 end time (clear time) how much time u spent in jail from the moment u got sent into to the moment u touched the first mob or vl after coming out of jailhow many golems eaten how long u been staying in fking smoke this one is hard to collect, i'm just counting how many smoke used vs how many tp to gauge it roughly with these items u can calculate ur damage and dps during b3 this is only meaningful to urself, use this dps check for self improvement and data collecting to know how good is ur chars in vl, don't use it to compare with others it's pointless (update, remind me to upload another pally video for the showcase) ???????? vl stuff - how to know how many golems eaten i have no idea how do some ppl read the hp percentage bar thats 1 kilometer above their char head with the text as small as ur pp, and say "6%" "8%" "i think 10%" each time he ate, those ppl are true sharp eye genius, idk why they don't se us during the fight and why we still need bm for se. i read the blue heal number on the vl face, the first 2 digits is enough each golem eaten heals vl 25m hp 1 golem = 25 2 = 50 3 = 75 4 = 10 5 = 12 6 = 15 7 = 17 8 = 20 9 = 22 10 = 25 simple math in b2 it's 25/1250 = 2% each golem in b3 it's 25/1750 = 1/70 = if u know what this number is, 1.42857142857142857142857142857% each golem (~1.43% or ~1.4% each golem) 260411 if u're a bucc with hw10 it's good to try to get laser'd 1-2 times during b3 will talk about update #95.0 #95.1 #95.2 update later 260414 stuff i found during accuracy test on my pally vl claw attack (slow debuff) hitbox only covers the area in front of him, if u stand right below him(in other words overlap with his leg) u wont get hit. this also means he won't use this attack if the aggro target is right below him 260415 [mythbuster] "vl bon used to be average 3.5-4 ws/cs/boots/css20% drop from 30boxes / from each run" false 3.5-4 drop only for everyone else not for me, for me it's 2-3 as the player who started every single boss by experiencing the driest streak u can or can't ever imagine, those kind of "average" numbers don't work on me. sorry to this thread https://royals.ms/forum/threads/did-something-happen-to-vl-bon.256103/ but speaking from someone who got his first 3/6 boots after 138 vl runs / 326 boxes broken, i have no choice but to to vote "it's just fucking normal rate". and even now my boots rate is still the lowest in the server, 3 * 3/6 out of 19 boots, the rest are 8 * 2/6, 8 * 1/6 "but but but shaman, u've got a 10/5 bfc on ur bm and a 5dex 7luk ep in ur solo run" i deserve more. that bfc should've been 11/5. that ep when it dropped should've been 10dex 12luk chaos-ed. (might delete this piece of shit lmao idk why so cranky) look at this dry streak, void printer goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr (x) no mir days by days, cs drop rate literally getting close to 10% (13% now, if not counting those runs before i started tracking auf drops where i've never seen any cs). uncrossable record. bullshit 260415 [mythbuster] "laser jump timing depends on how far u r from vl" false I had been hearing this shit everywhere in earlier vl days, idk who kept spreading this misinformation, im not sure what's the situation nowadays. dodging vl laser has been divding vl runners into 2 groups: one group of ppl knowing a bit about the mushroom game and another group of ppl who don't. the first group learns by themselves how to jump laser wihtin a short time, they never get laser after 10+ runs experience, while the 2nd group keeps discussing, questioning about this stuff, and still struggles with it after 30+ 40+ 50+ runs experience, and in the end of the day they still rely on luck to dodge laser. in stupid mushroom game there're basically 2 types of mob attack, 1st type only generates hitbox at certain frame after the attack launched, which is the majority of the mob attacks, another type is what actually has moving hitbox along with it's projectile. u never see an attack that has moving hitbox without any projectile. vl laser belongs to the first type: it only generates one hitbox at certain frame. vl's other skills too, vl doesn't throw fire or spits on ur face so all vl's attacks are the first type. (update later, remind me to post clips and illustrate) 260417 challenge cleared unfortunately regarding the chicken bstew part, i used it once because of some hesitation, but i'll take it ty mimi and everyone for bearing with my weird request to not use smoke. i know ppl want smoke. i also know this chance won't be there too often so i raised my level of focusing in here. cherish everytime when we are not just farming this boss. b3 battle time: 1558 seconds start at 34:53 end at 08:16 39 seconds spent in jail (1 out of total 5 jails)golems eaten: 4 single person exp = (313628651 - 200m) / 1.0 = 113628651 smoke/teleport: 0/?? damage% dealt on b3 main body = 113628651/0.8/1b = ~14.2% damage per second = damage% * (1750m + 4*25m) / 1558 = 168.6k/sec ideal dps is 205~215k/sec for my equips on shad, when run is very smooth and mob clearing is fast plus > 70% of the time in smoke. *0.9 from not using any smoke, *0.9 from how relatively strong the parties are (i.e. how long it takes to clear the mobs vs how long we are using single target skill), so this is about 80% of the ideal dps. party composition: [pally pally pally bucc bucc bs] [shad nl nl bm bucc bs] non-trivial iframed laser: 31 260419 started my hero's vl runs this week at level 179. 1 big issue i've expected is hero's brandish animation on 1-h weapon, this animation on 1-h sword is so fking weird tbh (also imo 2-h animation is aesthetically better than 1-h) bcos during each casting ur character moves back and forth for 2 times, it's almost the same animation repeated 2 times, u dont know if it's ended or not so it's so hard to sync it with ur brain and control ur character well. it was fine when u just need to do damage like in lhc golem or in rg, but in vl when u need to keep switching between spamming skill/stopping and moving/rushing it becomes a huge huge problem. i can understand now why hero is actually difficult to play in vl. and wtf pally is so easy yet so OP, seriously if 200k damage limit becomes uncapped pally is gonna be stronger than shad no joking, as long as u got a reliable bucc. another big issues i have not expected is again the brandish animation, but with crazy skull. if u read my shit above u'd know i don't rush lightning, and during brandish animation i almost can't tell if i'm under this debuff or not. 整個人(角色)瘋狂抖動根本看不到頭上有甚麼狀態 (google translate: The entire character was shaking so violently that you couldn't see any status indicator above their head.) now 2 branches i'm facing: 1 i'll switch to 2-h sword in the future 2 i'll get used to it and learn how to know when the animation ends without even looking at the character 0 death 0 laser in first 2 runs btw 260421 there are many myths and potential solutions about the game crash in bosses especially vl, but from my own experience the only thing that matters is the Language for non-Unicode programs setting if you're using windows os, you'd have to set it to english. you can also check my alternative method. i'm currently(still) using this alternative method and i have japanese as Language for non-Unicode programs for some of my old steam games that were originally made years ago. for those dumb apps i couldn't utilize steam's execution path feature to redirect it to locale emulator because besides steam launcher they got their own dumb launcher too so the only way i could reroute the execution to locale emulator was to hack into their own launcher. 260421 do u know mage teleport-up = 1 frame jump? kinda want to do this on vl laser but i need to get hw10 first before i could afford lots of failure (this literally needs to be done frame perfectly)
guess i still got too many garbage to dump here a record of cards grinding on my shad during roughly 2602-2603 = roughly lny event ppl like to ask ohhhhhhhh u need that medals? no i just felt like to do some hard but not so hard thing. currently 20x/400 with most of hard ones c5/5 Mano - 3/5 many ppl especially low level ones / tourists are hunting this, to the extent that this became a fair competition, usually can find 3-4 channels Faust - 5/5 fucking hard to find even one out of 40 channels King Clang - 4/5 a bit hard. i accidentally found the tp portals that literally transfer u through the 3 spawn points... didn't know about this Timer - 3/5 60 channels seemed like less ppl know about left side. right side and middle are way more frequently hunted Mushmom - 1/5 almost every random timing i came here i found 15+ channels idk why, saying this in combination with my experience on other chars during past yrs Dyle - 3/5 40 channels Zombie Mushmom - 4/5 ~mapowner Nine-Tailed Fox - 3/5 Tae Roon - 4/5 ~mapowner King Sage Cat - 2/5 40 channels the hidden map is the less known one? idk Frankenroid - 4/5 did 3 runs a day to grind tokens for pally/bucc as well. was lucky in first 2 days c3/5 then almost one week to c5/5. this is the first time to know this dude use a special skill which teleports close range player to previous map, when ur party members are not all present, and when this skill drops the same time u kill him, u will come back to the map without anything changed, no boss, no npc, mobs on the top platform are still doing their work. u failed a run. this is just a funky skill and has nothing to do with boycotting/anti solo runs bcuz after u kill the boss the npc will require all party members to come to the map anyways. when i searched for info of this guy to confirm something i found a rumor in legends or somewhere that raged version actually has higher card drop rate. well in the end of the day i couldn't figure out this, what i can say is i did normal version 5-6 runs out of 20+ runs and the rest was all raged version, all 5 cards dropped from raged version. d1 raged*3 c1/5 d2 raged*3 c3/5 d3 normal raged normal normal 0 d4 normal raged raged c4/5 finished c5/5 at d7-ish solo 20-25 minutes per run Eliza (see Jr. Lucica later) Snowman - 3/5 Griffey - 4/5 fuck shads fuck nx farmer they really need to triple or 5x the gizer drop of this and manon to make this fair competition Pianus L - 10/5 this is the only one i decided to go real toxic mode. went from c0/5 -> c5/5 in roughly 2 days Pianus R - finished left side and i'm done, bye. this one is still c1/5, bye (maybe see u later on) Stumpy - 4/5 a bit hard Jr. Balrog - 1/5 faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar no one even bothered themselves to farm this dude Deo - 2/5 sometimes 20 out of 20 channels sometimes 2 out 20 not sure whats going on with this dude Zeno - 4/5 i've never known who is farming this, maybe ppl just need them for quests Chimera - 4/5 Leviathan - 3/5 unexpectedly finished c5/5 pretty easily. guess i was lucky to find 10+ channels first wave and by camping the timer finished in 2nd waves. still fuck shad fuck nx farmer. Dodo - 4/5 Lilynouch - 5/5 fuck shad fuck nx farmer. met a nx farmer who taught me about the reason behind them deciding to do this way, also his income from farming nx. those were some very persuasive and very valid reason imo, now i respect nx farmer, but still fuck nx farmer. i need to fame them for telling me their short story Lyka - 5/5 this one i'll not fuck shad fuck nx farmer bcuz pretty much everyone is farming this Giant Centipede - 1/5 same as Jr.balrog but tbh it's not far at all Snack Bar - 5/5 unexpectedly super hard one, 1 out of 20 channels everytime Black Crow - 2/5 ez shad life Female Boss - 2/5 i didn't grind for this. i c5/5-ed this one when leeching my shad through level 120-135 with my bm (same as Big Foot, not same as Kacchuu Musha, see below). one of the rare moments when u actually feel good for being a bm main, back in the day. Blue Mushmom - 3/5 became a lot easier after the respawn time shortened Kacchuu Musha - 4/5 became slightly easier after the respawn time shortened. however this dude has prob the lowest card drop rate among all area bosses. killing this with shad was as easy as with bm Bodyguard A / Bodyguard B / The Boss - ??? (c0/5 c1/5 c0/5) (260416) after 7 days of grinding i'm now at c2/5 c4/5 c3/5, i'll give the rate of 6/5 Bodyguard A the most annoying and difficult one pot used: map buff +20wa for 15 mins (petit rose/witch effect, can get from event or cashshop, snow/bell effect, sold in cash shop) + 1 apple on nl start from a holy shield - smoke - holy shield - tl-ed smoke. mdfker can punch and stun my bm+nl from 4th dimension. (note: if ur like me having 280 ping there's no "out range"such thing and there's no "pin corner" such thing, mobs can keep rubber-banding between a short distance, hamstring can help a little bit with this disadvantage) if unfortunately both my bucc/shad got stunned then it's fun time, super fun. debating if i should bring my 2nd bishop stationing at ulu1 to have longer hsh uptime. usually kill before nl apple expires, but depends on how often do i get stunned from this mdfker. usually takes 11.5-12.5 minutes Bodyguard B super tedious one, if u look at data it's says 500m hp but don't trust it, those iframe alike bigfoot makes it effectively 700m+ hp pot used: wait for previous map buff expires, then 2nd map buff + 2nd apple on nl. takes 16-17 minutes The Boss pot used: 3rd map buff + 1 basket on bucc usually i could lower it's hp to ~30% after 2 holy shield and 2 smoke remember what i said in Jr. Boogie section? yes nl has no avoid against these high level bosses, but still better than bm. after 2 smokes done, bm becomes se mule, only attack on nl shad bucc. takes 6-7 minutes. also everytime shit tons of elixir used on bucc. drops? 11k nx, well. totally around 37-39 minutes to finish (260416) Castellan - ??? (c2/5) Horntail / Von Leon - keep these c0/5 as if i never did these bosses Gatekeeper / Thanatos - 1/5 ~1 minute respawn time. apparently they have slightly higher drop rate then normal mobs Imperial Guard - 2/5 it's insane that during this many years nobody ever reported this weird thing that dudes in core blaze don't drop card, only in Royal Guard stage or in Dunas V2, this server is 狂ってる. checking scotty's library i found that those are indeed 2 different mob both called Imperial Guard and both have the same stats/hp/exp, just one of those doesn't have a drop table wtf. why there needs to be 2 of them?? Small Gold Monk / Small Bronze Monk / Giant Gold Monk / Giant Silver Monk / Bronze Monk / Silver Monk - 3/5 grinded these from 7th floor -> 5/6th floor -> 3/4th floor -> 1/2nd floor, basing on the logic of "always start from the mob that spawns only in 1 map". ez shad life, matter of the time Crocky the Gatekeeper - 3/5 ez shad life. fuck shad. tried to duo attack with bucc but the map is a bit of ehhhh, not worth it Reindeer - 5/5 only spawn in 1 map, in mixed with their brothers (didn't know about this until i seriously looked into grinding this card) shad + bucc duo attack, not easy Blood Reindeer - 4/5 u know why they're called blood reindeer? they have shit tons of blood (hp) Bearwolf - this is special one i'll not rate it. basically u join lhc melee bw and loot them however!!! however!!! however!!! however!!! linking this to my another shit talk (update later) Grey Vulture - 3/5 shad + bucc duo attack easy Castle Golem - 1/5 Male Boss - 5/5 c1/5 although haven't finished this i'm just rating it based on experience of my previous char when i farmed this with 4-clients 4 channels Black Bird - ??? (c2/5 this shouldn't be hard...) Lycanthrope - 4/5 imo best route to farm those dudes is to only care about the bottom 2 spawns in Wolf Territory IV. cc, clear all White Fang spawned at the bottom, go up kill 2 Lycanthrope, jump down so u will respawn at bottom part of the map when u cc -> loop Homunscullo - 5/5 i can't remember how many bots i've spotted in this map it's way too many. to the extent that i observe u 5 seconds i know 100% ur a fucking bot or ur just a fucking good boy grinding here manually. all my reports on this map and lab unit 2-3/2-2 got confrimed by gms. and there's still lots of cases i was lazy to make a report. this is prob best sale of royals bot/script black market, if there's any? idk, maybe it's just open-sourced. anyways if ur a botter/scripter reading this for idk why u reading this, stop botting on this map. it's stupid to to this on a map ppl need for quest/ card/ somthing. drop rate is prob same as normal mob. right side spawns every 30 minutes, left side spawn every 2-3 hrs im not sure. Dark Yeti and Pepe - ??? not done yet c1/5, gonna mage farm this Mingu - 5/5 this is super special one that i've found super ez and chill if u doing this on a shad, but super hard otherwise. u just solo it, yes u just solo dojo 1 run takes ~9 minutes. it's even faster than trying to recruit or join ppl's run. i remember when i was trying to solo dojo with my nl there's still a good chance to fail on pap and even if i miss-ed all the 1/1 attack it's still super slow clearing speed, but with shad i just kill everything, the only thing i need to worry about is when the mobs don't drop mp potion. btw if u tryna use the damage amplifier skill it's a direct x2 from the original damage u'd do without it. not sure if it's a party buff or just for urself, would be insane if it's party buff. #1 shad is here if u do public runs u will find some tourists who don't listen to ur plead they will just loot the cards regardless of what u said, those are just ignoring any communication, u join on lv200 char and they just take it for granted, "oh this guy want to have some fun lets give him some fun". ok luckily there's still bunch of conscious players around in this content, i'll make sure to fame them, fame with all my mules. however i've to say dojo is a sadge content now, it really needs some buff or interesting idea. bcuz a random 3/3 vl belt scrolled with +2 wa first slot costing 900m-1000m is just on par with a black belt with 5/11 stats (+3). anyone who has access to 18-man vl would just skip dojo. 900m meso guaranteed stats v.s. 14000points / 2000points/run * 1.2+hr/run = 8.4+hr risk failing 60%s who wins. got c1/5 in previous public runs non-existed c2/5 was supposed to be spotted in another public run but it's hidden behind the fat ass potions and was took by someone else a few more public runs and i went solo c2/5 c3/5 in first ~20 runs ~30 runs dry streak cc from 14 to 17 after ~45th run and at ~49th run got c4/5 c5/5 at the same time Bacal - 5/5 3/5 (260406) c1/5 not finished yet but ik it's hard ok so, after looking into it a bit, i 've found it's not that hard.went from c1/5 to c5/5 in ~8 runs krex. how u gonna do this is to have a nl, use taunt on the mobs so not only they get def up but also drop rate buff, i'm not sure if the drop rate buff will affect steal success rate but apparently steal success rate has something to do with the natural item drop rate when mob is killed, so even though Bacal drops nothing but card, it takes forever to steal one card from them. and then u take off all the equips that +stats/wa to minimize ur shad damage as much as possible, with lv200 shad u would inevitably have still 1k+ range when u almost wear nothing but a 20-30wa dagger, thats fine. with def up from taunt u will do 300-400 damage per steal hit so 60-70 chances to steal it on each mob, thats good amount of hits but not guarantee the card will drop. (260406) (260408) wtf shad has taunt too (260408) Jr. Lucida - 5/5 Eliza spawns 6(or 5?) Jr. Lucida when it's hp goes down to 80% 60% 40% 20% so reduce Eliza's hp to below 20% and wait for 4 spawn waves. monster sacks can make this easier. drop rate same as normal mob Jr. Gargoyle - 4/5 solo GPQ unexpectedly finished c5/5 very fast in 4 runs. think i got a bit lucky here. this is the first time i seriously looked into how Jr. Gargoyle spawns work in there, so here is my observation: right side knight statue will summon 15(or 16, idk how to count) waves * 5 Jr. Gargoyle, if there's more than 50 mobs in the map the summon will fail (which means u lose 1 chance for it to summon). clear all the other stuff and leave right side knight statue alive and wait. drop rate probably same as normal mob Tauromacis - 4/5 moooooooooo D. Roy 5/5 spawn timer and drop rate same as Homunscullo but less botters here Werewolf - 4/5 2map * 4spawn. spawn from top platforms to bottom Taurospear - 4/5 moooooooooooo-spear Crimson Tree - 3/5 4spawn in the first map, can use portal in the map. 5spawn in the second map, go in cave and cc and go out, rotated counter-clockwise in upper part of the map. shad is doing better than other jobs here, cleared 20 channels faster than they respawn-ing, switched between map1/2. went from c0/5 to c5/5 in about 1 hr Rombot - 5/5 i doubt if it's drop rate is even lower than normal mobs. cost more than 1 week and more than a bunch of tp rocks. Chief Gray - 5/5 i felt it's drop rate is same as Rombot but got lucky on this shad. went from c1/5 to c5/5 in 3-4 days while still searching for Zeno. (yeah i didn't even search on the other 3 maps often and thats why i felt i was just lucky) MT-09 - 5/5 same as Rombot Miner Zombie - ??? not finished yet Sophilia Doll - 4/5? 4 mages nuking the lobby map, farmed c5/5 along with Psycho Jack + Glutton Ghoul. got 10 more Glutton Ghoul cards here Phantom Tree - 3/5 make use of the fact ppl farming bf/horseman, cycle through the 3 cross road maps, u dont cc in the crossroad map bcuz it'll send u to the bottom where ur doomed and u will be crying in the corner, go 1 map before and cc and go into crossroad again. i'll put video here to show how did i farm this one. i have no evidence if this method is more efficient than just walking around twisted path, but i went from c0/5 to c5/5 in less than 2 hrs. what's good with this method, after u clear all 20 channels of a crossroad map u can go down and there's another 3 tree spawns u can cc all 20 channels again at the bottom. Spoiler: route1 Spoiler: route2 Spoiler: route3 Jr. Boogie 1 - 3/5 learned from senpai's info and finished c5/5 in Sleepy Dungeon 3platform*2spawn + 5platform*2spawn Boogie - 4/5 this one only from zak b1 summon (hp 100%), zak b1 also summons Puco from ~80% hp, Punco from 55-56% hp, Cuzco from ?% hp so u want to leave it at high hp to make sure Boogie get summoned more often (not sure about this, when zak's hp goes down he also uses skill faster and more frequently). this is another one shad does better than other jobs bcuz if u do this on other classes u will lose shit tons of potions while waiting for zak to summon, but with shad u just afk, literally go afk and back to see the whole map of mobs. nl? what about nl? no nl has no avoid, after playing both nl and shad i can safely, humbly, conservatively say nl has no avoid. Electrophant - 3/5? 4 mages nuking at the I.AM.ROBOT map. maybe previous map better idk Baby typhon - 4/5 felt drop rate is slightly higher than normal mobs. my other 2 chars finished this c5/5 by just doing hp quest. put 1 bishop at the bottom thorn bush and shad went around Fairy 1 - 5/5 finished c5/5 in Cloud Park. according to senpai's info golem temple in henesys would be better. farming this was satisfying Batoo - ??? not finished yet Papa Pixie - 5/5 interesting one, i'll prob upload a tier list of "how fast can ppl yoink the boss card in each different pq, compared to how fast they've been doing to clear stages", this gonna be tier S+ btw, and maybe epq tier A

[mythbuster] "white exp is given to the player who does the most damage in the party that does the most damage" false try not to copy the impression from a different server's customized feature directly into royals [mythbuster] "reuel quest gives u 35hp per day in average" false 35 hp only for u, for me it's 33hp/day 260416 i feel players right now are at a crossroad to reconsider their life choice. do u believe there's some value remained in royals. do u still have goals in here. how much effort u are willing to pay in this place. i hope staff can be more honest and frankly about the current state of the server. we have had so many great ideas implemented but also so many bugs coming along with the implementation, a few of them were fixed after months, but more haven't been fixed after years. contrary to how active gms/tim has become on handling ToS things, the bug fix part hasn't been touched for such a long time. is this server still being maintained / improved? or is it just waiting for fading?
