So apart from the patch notes, there's another announcement… Bug fixes!
I eagerly opened the page to see if any of the old, long standing bugs has been fixed but...
its pretty much just all the phantom and zen related bugs…
Yeah, not that those are any less important. But how about all the bugs present since years ago? Like the DC bug with PG and PR… which later 'spread' to more jobs and more skills (e.g. DS vengeance, mech's perfect armour… even phantom also can too some kind of DC bug… a client in my cwkpq batch hit the boss and tio the DC bug zzzzz)
sianz.
like seriously… so many bugs that need fixing.
Like my evan perm set de cash effect gone since idk when. Still unfixed.
Stupid power reflect cannot use during bossing… 30% is a freaking hell A LOT of damage reduced you know! During 1,1 if i can on PR… i'll have like 12k hp left! More than enough for me to take tank 2 hits on zak b3 body… -.-''' a lot of difference can?
And pala no need to say… 50% damage reduction…. will help me so much for cygnus bossing!
haiz. So many bugs. -.-''' The worst thing is that those bugs are not NEW. They have been freaking there for a million years already, it shd have been more then enough time to feedback to nexon and get the devs to change the code etc, work on a fix… MORE MORE MORE then enough time seriously. PG/PR bug has been out since what? big bang? When was big bang out in msea? 18th May. 2011. That's a freaking year and a half ago and they don't have time to fix these bugs? KNS lah. They just don't fucking give a shit.
Like seriously?
ok… i shan't be so negative… at least this posting of bugs fixed is a start. A small start but still a start nonetheless. Hopefully they'll keep it up and tackle the long overdue list of bugs...
Started off at lvl 114, 1%. So that's like… 118% exp from bga and bgb nia… my lvl can't leech the boss yet. All in just a few minutes. Pro normy. Sigh. My pala was taking how long to solo last time ah? lol!
Finished up the last of the papu quest on my evan and when to whack papu...
loads of quests...
oh there was this mind of maple thing… dunnoe is simi lai de o.o
the ice-cream bars are back…. oh wells… same box, wat to expect? the green ice-cream there is melon flavoured… gives 10 speed.
also got transformation potions… loads of them.
gotta say tho, the penguins look quite cute when they jump and clap their wings helplessly.
i got this mount from the icebox too. 7 day mount coupon.
looks… weird… 140speed and 120 jump. standard i guess… just for u to look pretty when in the fm, or waiting for ppl to add u to pt in PQs...
total of 5 transform to penguins...
more bars...
this gotta be the favourite for those chars w/o a face accessory yet...
ah yes… the inkwell store… this is what the snowdrop coins are for.
a chair… nice :) i think i'll change for that.
all the scroll are untradable… and 500 snowdrop coins for a chaos scroll? that's SO MUCH work!
Ah the happy new year alphabets. now its not like last time when the mobs will drop a free flow of alphabets liao. Its like the quest items now, it'll only drop what you don't have… and the drop rate is… not too high… 
i opened the box and got… 20 pure water f3.
happy villa! there's the white xmas tree thing aka gaga needs sunshine to grow maple trees...
there's also 2 stores here… i think there are different…. snowdrop coins that you use in different stores… confusing -.-'''
the other store accepts red colour snowdrop coins… and the stuff in there is cheaper...
all scrolls untradable once again
this coin is from me doing the leafre preparation quest, this one is for use in the inkwell store. 1 coin each time from the preparation quest, up to 20 a day from those quests… u can do like the same quest 20 times… but then the drop rate of the stuff is really low… like 30mins or so to finish up… -.-''' not worth doing unless u training in a particular place.
ah, the warm thermometer thing...
both the thermometer and the '1 degree' are etc drops, so u need space in ur etc inv… something my evan and pala doesn’t have. You have to manually drag the '1 degree' to the thermometer to fill it...
total of 15 degrees needed to fill that thing up...
3 days belt and 15 snowdrop coins… the belts are useless for me, but the coins… well at least i can get a chair...
hmm the fake santa… i didn’t think of checking the world map, but i think they'll be listed there… in any case i found one in the exact same location as where the joy birds spawned so… ya know where to look ;) still… its like… only 1 gift for the whole event? a bit… stupid sia… make us wish so much for 1 item… -.-''' zzzzz
first up… if you've not been to neo city before, you'll see a quest on the light bulb on the left side… the quest will bring you directly to the entrance of neo city.
Other wise you enter neo city from the east border…. or simply two lefts >>> of leafre. 
here's the 1st map… a bunch of lvl 120 slimes. You get a quest form andy to find watch from these slimes… the two npcs inside gives some simple quest...
hunt 20 crumpled paper from the slime
and collect 10 of each slime etc...
the quest reward is exp. 430k… good or bad? Idk sia. lvl 200 liao can't tell… can only tell if i bring my 12x chars there to play...
the pocket watch took a little longer then the other two quests, but right afteri start complaining, it dropped XD so yeah, it drops quite fast lah. maybe i shd have complained earlier haha!
in the 2nd map you face apsu (what time of name is that???). Don't whack that mob… i whacked it for fun and it hit me 13k. Ouch… if ur hp and WD lower then gg liao haha.
Well you go back to andy and he goes on and on about some time driver thing...
eventually, finally, he gives you the device. 
Now you have 1 more item in ur setup inv. hurrah -.-''' my setup inv almost full liao loh! Lol...
Finally you can whack that apsu - formerly know as magic beast in neo tokyo. now it only deals a miserly 2k+ damage. Ok lah… can still kill you if you don't pot :P
it drops the blue sand thing… which can be used to exchange for chaos scrolls to scroll the time traveller helm.
mobs here are lvl 129...
the boss mobs are dungeon styled. you can solo, or go with up to 2 other members… either way you have to be in a pt, even a solo pt… and you can enter up to 20 times per day, per boss. Timer resets at 12mn. 
very very simple boss. Ya lay, i lvl 200 le… but ppl clear the entire neo city with a lvl 127 unfunded merc so… 
the quest to hunt 100 of each mob is repeatable… in eh of the area maps there'll be a quest at the end to hunt XXX of each mob that's repeatable for some exp...
what used to be eruwaters is now iruvata… and really really weak :P
yet another push over...
last time zone now!
Oberon has damage reflect… so if you don't have thick hp, be careful. Damage reflect ignores stuff like PG/PR/MG so beware. 
that's the damage reflect symbol. As my guild mate lolli was saying, the boss will cast damage reflect once its hp reaches the far right side of the timer bar. It'll also cast reflect again somewhere ard 1/4 of its hp. Reflected damage is around 3.5k to 4k+. Of course if your hp is like mine… you'll barely feel the ant bite XD
there… this time reflect hit 4.1k damage… a bit more… chars like phantom - beware! You don't lose exp when faint revives you, but you are not alert, keep hitting a die a 2nd time… XD you'll lose exp…! of cos warriors can crash beforehand to prevent the boss from casting reflect…. actually, phantoms can too :P but that means you won't get to use combo… well I'm not sure if u can crash, then immediately change to combo w/o the crash effect disappearing… hmm gotta try that out sometime.
and after killing oberon…you get the time traveler's laurel.
it comes with hidden epic pot...
F#!@#!#$ 6% luck darn. If only it was 6% str… that'll be better than my useless epic but 3% str scar helm. 
you then have to talk to chief tomato (ok, i can't rem how to spell his name), then you get exp and get sent to the 'turn-me-into-a-dragon-so-i-can-fly-to-time-temple' guy, then you talk to him, get more exp, and he send you back to andy. Very convenient. 
he gives you a MMB… when when opened give a random SB for your job.
it gave me a useless rush 30. oh wells… not that i need anything apart from mw30… (and i checked yesterday… mw30 is really cheap now… 16xm nia… last time mw20 cost me 500m!)
you also get the neo city time traveller medal. 6 to all and 1wa 1ma. not bad ya? 
looks like this when you put it on.
i tried it with my hero...
there are two merchants in there… the stuff they sell depends on ur honour lvl...
the long winded np explains each of the modes...
woodwan will track how many coins you received so far… a sliver coin counts as 1 count too, so its in absolute number of the coins u received. 
there's a bunch of different modes...
gave up on the solo mode cos i didn’t know what i was supposed to do and it was just taking too long :P
well basically all you have to do for attack or occupy mode is rush to the very >>> side, and down the tower. There are other towers in the middle, but you don't have to down those. The mobs too… if your pt is good and can kill fast, you have to bother about the mobs… good pts only take like… 30 sec per round… :X mine when i tried… if fast less than 1 min settle… otherwise may drag for a few mins. jobs with high movement like evan are great for this pq… 
that was the first time i cleared the pq… i think everyone in the pt didn’t know what to do that's why took so long :X
lvl 4 honor...
The thing about this Azwan is that you spend A LOT of pots. Like really A LOT! I think the pillar and beam attack hits for a % of ur max hp, and of cos the more difficult the mode, the more painful the hit. Very easy to die if you doth keep potting to full health… 
ooo 40 secs finish, nice. Note: If your pt cannot down fast, you shd try and chose an easier mode… or have someone clear the mobs. Cos if the mobs cross over to the << side, it'll heal the boss tower's hp. 
see in this pic there's those vertical pillars appearing? the one on the far right is in its full size already, whereas those two on the left are just starting the attack (see the 10k damage dealt). Basically if you get hit by this pillar in hard/hell mode, its instant death. In normal you still have some hp left over though.
Oh have i mentioned that you won't lose exp for dying in Azwan? Well its practically a die fest in Azwan so...
i cleared normal mode fast enough tho, in like 1min… will be faster if i don't down the middle tower lah...
oh this time managed to do in 50 sec, still downed mid tower.
yay at long last, i lvled up my pala to 179 :X
used my db to whack whack a bit to leech exp and managed to lvl up… <3 HS! /heh bringing a naked char for cwkpq. Yes this SS was taken idk how long ago, before that dc bug terrorised us.
dunnoe why i took this SS. Totally random… 
tried out neo city with my DS...
exp from the quests/bosses was not bad lah… i mean, still slower than pqing but it’s a good alternative if you are sick of pqing already.
basically all the bosses were easy to kill… except for the 2nd last one with damage reflect :X
yes THIS. haiz. 
first time failed...
lvled up and went back to try...
i noticed the 1st damage reflect but… missed the 2nd one and died zzzzz
finally…! basically i ended up hitting for like 20 sec only, stop, wait for DR to cast, and start hitting after the DR finish :X that's why took so long :(
dang… nothing good in the pot :(
haiz mmb also nor give me smthing good… i took barricade mastery 30 last time when i made my DS… -.-''
oh this was during the maple session with my friends. See the chem, swim and bio? all my chars /heh 
no lah, not i lvl… my other DS lvled.
oh and i finally lvled my aran from 69 to 70! Yes… it finally hit 3rd job! lol! All thanks to me having to look for low lvl chars to pq with my other low lvled chars in the other accounts :X
outdated skill screen LOL
And ya… we were trying to make a nice heart shape with the two DS and then capturing the SS at just the right moment… here are the better ones from our attempts...
and inverted heart!
triple lvl up! Oh wow my aran managed to hit lvl 74! not bad… but its still a storage account lol.
i was wondering where the hell that peach monkey forest is… needn't have worried at all… just follow the arrows.
Nvr knew there was this map in west border...
So cute story about how the guard thingy spoilt 
cute. Warranty expired yesterday. LOL.
Beware… got pot lock… if i wasn’t more alert I'd have died… heng i saw and moved to the side to siam. K lay pot lock didnt last that long, but i wasn’t keeping my hp at full so… plus each hit from that thing is like 1.8k and my hp not very long. K lah got final feint so if really die also ok.
So yup, reached 4th job.
Went to the FM and the only job of interest that i could find was Drk so yeah… stole DI… what else? /heh
Pe… how the heck do you spell that skill? That's what i hate about phantom. Sibuay weird skill name. Can't spell at all. I thnk its what… french? 
First your rapier wit, which hits and teleports your though the mobs w/o moving the mobs at all...
then you Penombre, which hits all the mobs that you just went through earlier. At the end of those two skills, you end up in the same place where you started off. So yup, that was what rapier wit was for all along. No pushing skill except for the lousy mills carte thingy which sucks IMO. Makes me really tempted to steal rush for my training purposes. 
So yup, went to get my papu quest done and whacked papu twice. Still have no gotten my papu quest done on my DS though :X
Whee lvled up with the quest haha. 30 fame yay, now i have 100 fame and enough to go to TT.
Since i was in the whacking papu mode… i went on my CS and merc too… and my merc lvled up!
Did 10 rounds of drpq on merc and managed to get it to 130… finally haha!
