[EMS] 6,5 Years!

Sup guys! Today is the 30th of March, which means I've been playing MapleStory Europe for 6,5 consecutive years only on my character Rayque now!

Let there will be more years to come, cheers! Until next post~

[EMS] Level 10 Herbalism!

Sup guys! So recently we finally have the RED patch with the Professions update in MapleStory Europe. We can now learn Mining and Herbalism. As you might remember, back in the Chaos patch (Winter 2011), I've managed Level 10 Smithing and Mining within the Profession Master event.

I'm quite glad I can also learn Herbalism now, since there are two things I couldn't manage as a Mining Expert before. Both Professions have their own perks, and it's nice to see we now can pick slices from both cakes!

As for Smithing, crafting various ammunition requires Juniper & Hyssop oils, which were only obtainable through Herbalism. That means you would need to know a Herbalism user which could supply you with those. Now I can supply myself without having to purchase them in Free Market for rather high prices~

Together with this new system, the game also has new types of veins/herbs, which are recommended to have Level 10 Mining and Herbalism in order to farm them. They are called Mysterious Veins/Herbs and Mysterious Legendary Veins/Herbs. These can drop various ingredients to craft more expensive items, such as Flames of Reincarnation and Blacksmith Cubes, together with the usual Magic Powders and Ores/Flowers/Forged plates/Oils.

That's it for today, until next post!

[EMS] Mu Gong Soul GET!

Sup guys, I finally managed to obtain my Mu Gong Soul recently!
In total, it took me 38 days of doing Mu Lung Dojo spreaded over roughly 2 months to obtain all soul pieces. The prefix is unfortunately +LUK, but for me it doesn't really matter, since the real focus for this soul is the buff.

You charge souls (between 1 and 5) for every monster you defeat, and when you have charged 1000 souls, your boss soul is ready to be used. Every boss gives a different effect, either being a large ranged attack, a summon for a short duration or a short buff. Mu Gong is one of the two buff-giving bosses (next to Ephenia), giving 30% damage for 10 seconds. It does seem short, but as a Hero, in combination with Terms & Conditions (Angelic Buster skill link), Epic Adventure (Lv 200 Hyper Skill), Valhalla (Lv 150 Hyper Skill), Echo of Hero (Lv 200 skill) and all other regular Hero skills, you can have a burst of almost 10x damage for 10 seconds.

To give an idea about the progress I made, here's an overview for obtaining every soul piece.

1/10 Pieces - 8th Day (10 Feb 2014) - run #23 - Used 1,2x Drop (Family System)
2/10 Pieces - 17th Day (22 Feb 2014) - run #51 - Used 2x Drop (Event)

That's it for today's post guys, until next post!
