Chinh's been covered =]. Post screenies of Chinh getting pwnt please.

Unfortunately I wasn't with him in that KQ when he got pwnt, but I'm sure it's not hard to fetch more screenies of him getting pwnt anyway, since he gets pwnt every day.

Sounds like some kind of anti-perspirant commercial.

The chinh effect. Pwnt. Anyday, everyday.

darn, how about this one: before the dialogue even ends and we can get organized some mage (later to be pwnt) starts attacking the first thing he sees.

oh oh how about at the first mini boss one of the few clerics runs straight out to him and gets pwned

**Blaaaaaaaah** · 08-12-2007, 12:42 AM

Oh I've got another one! When you're in a KQ and trying to organise a tanker and things but no one is listening to you. Then they all rush into the boss and like Des said, they all get pwnt together.

Oh and another thing to add to the list is probably this (credits to hobo chinh): If you're a FULL SPR fighter (level 29) who's the highest level there, THEN YOU'RE SCREWED! Yeah, chinh got pwnt.

OINK OINK OINK.

Okay I'll chip in. I participated in a KQ where I was the highest level, a full SPR Fighter. Due to the massive boosts in END, I can tank fairly easily with the aid of a few clerics. However, in this KQ I was the highest level(29) with the next highest being a level 26 Archer. Only to add to my misery was a particularly annoying mage *cough*17_APPLE*cough* that told me to tank everything, and I mean everything.

"menu u bad tnak u go 1st n tank everyfink." This dumbass kept telling me that, believing that I could be everywhere at once. He died 19324612094 times from being too hasty, without waiting for the rest of the group to catch up and blamed me for his deaths albeit the fact that he was level 21 or something.

"menu u cna do better than that"

I ended up failing this KQ, almost killing the final boss before the time ran out.

After this I participated in a KQ with nubcakes(Blaaaahs), succeeding in this KQ reasonably easily.

**Blaaaaaaaah** · 08-12-2007, 01:28 AM

I just keep lol'ing how he calls you menu! LMAO! What's for lunch, chinh?

Here is a good one........

When the Key is obviously on the right hand side and everyone goes left in Golden Hill KQ (last area before boss)

Another not real sign: when i start complaining about time

Destrus · 08-12-2007, 05:17 AM

here's my bad ;_;- when the tank forgets not everyone's gonna think to only attack the one that the tank is attacking unless they can actualyl tank it. this was mara, i had like 4 fighters, a couple elites, and eventually a marine on me cause well what happened was this:

when we got to the first mara and marlone i suddenly came to the realisation that i may just have to tank this time cause the other person who would tank had 648hp and i think that was with a vit. i had 740 no vit. then i used a vit and i got convinced to be the tank. it went ok but i'm not used to heals (does heal have a cooldown? what's the casting time on it? i don't have a cleric yet that's why i'm asking.) so i used stones anyways. it started out bad because this one idiot pulled bother mara and marlone and got people killed. we regrouped told all the healers to stay on me. well this idiot started attacking again so of course one of the healers started healing him. i didn't die though cause i still had a healer and i was using stones and pots just in case. well the idiot eventually died too many times cause everybody told the clerics not to res him and he was gone by the time we finished there.

ok so now somebody starts complaining about time so i'm like screw it so i started running. it seemed like some people were keeping up with me... but i think it was just my cleric guildy now but anyways when i got to the boat i had a ton of things on me and didn't want to just rush in to the boat not knowing who was there. i figured they did like before every time i tried to run and started fighting things. so i stopped and turned to look. i now realised that there were too many on me and knew i had to at least stun one of the fighters which i did... so then everybody started attackign random things ;_;. there was carnage... lots of it... as seemingly every mage fell to the might of the mara pirate crew. it was both tragic and hilarious. but anyways no harm done. we got through the first boat fine. <--- ok that was the part that was my bad, now on to the rest.

<_< problem was when we picked one to pull and nobody was listening when we were telling them to go back down. the puller got pissed and said screw you guys i hope you die and pulled marlone (the real one of course, he was mad but still did his job). at least he pulled it though so i got it off him but was trying to tell people to gtfo but there were still idiots up there even after he pulled it. i ended up dieing and the mages would not stop attacking. he killed a couple mroe people. i got up and went down the stairs and i'm like this is why you're supposed to gtfo when we're gonna pull. so yea there i was no vit scroll. i died about 6 more times cause he would do the aoe and immediately attack right after and not all teh healers listened when we told them to spam heal on me. well anyways lots of carnage, mass murder, etc. followed.

then the i think only archer there was trying to give me a vit scroll. i kept trying to pick it up but i was having problems. then i saw somebody run by and the scroll disappeared. i checked my inventory hoping i got it but just didn't get the message. nope not there. we practically went on a witch hunt trying to figure out who took it. all i knew was that it disappeared when whoever ran by. and that whoever was a fighter. last suspect: Ksand, though nothing can be proven so no burning at the steak.

at this point we knew it was over <_<. oh but the thing that really pissed me off was when somebody called me a bad tank. umm excuse me it wasn't my fault you people were too stupid to follow directions when somebody tells you to get away from the F****** boss with a aoe that one shots you thus pissing off the pulelr causing him to pull too soon, getting me killed, and making me waste my only vit scroll on a failed KQ. so whoever said that whose name i can't remember F U.

and that's the story of the fail KQ, sorry for turning this into a rant about mara/everything that goes wrong with mara, the KQ from hell thing.

-EDIT- just to add to the fail: i started with a full stock of stones (46 hp and 23 sp). by the time the fail was over i was nearly out of potions, actually ran out of tier 1 hp potions and had to switch to tier 2

It's cool. You can let it all out here. A lot of people seem to experience frustrating situtions with KQ's at least once. Here you can just vent out and let loose all those feelings, and turn them into a joke to laugh at later. Anyway, if people talk shit to you during the KQ when you aren't doing anything wrong, just relax and don't worry so much about it.

@4swordlink

Nobody really can guess where the key is. I've seen instances where the key for the final gate is discovered right after the Marlone. I generally find that it's polar opposite of the gate you arrive from, so I personally prefer going left, as you clear the monsters to the final gate while simultaneously finding the key. It's just the most efficient way to do things, that's why everyone usually goes left.

**Blaaaaaaaah** · 08-12-2007, 11:06 AM

@Destrus: Ah, you poor thing. Mara is my least favourite KQ of all times and I don't want to do it again. I don't think I ever will until open beta when I have to (if I want to level up faster). Mara KQ is a really fustrating thing and half the times I get pissed by the end of it. Telling people to come down the stairs before the last boat so the puller can get the real one is a PISS OFF! Don't people understand what "STAY HERE" means? Like seriously, how hard is it? I've often screamed and shouted, telling people to come down or they will die, but they don't listen and when they don't they die. Those people are the ones that always think their right and doesn't bother communicating with the rest of the people. It's really annoying, and it's all bLARGHh all the time. Sigh, you'll probably get used to it later, haha!

Edit: Forgot to answer the heal thing you asked. Heal has a 3 second cool down. I don't know how many clerics does this but I have put my heal down to 2.1 second cooldown. So yeah. XD Supposedly it'd be safer to have more than one cleric healing so you then can take turns healing while the other cool downs, if you know what I mean.
