Fancy Costumes

I found a site that has a list of costumes available in their version of Cabal. Since the images on the site load rather slowly, below are a list of them, with exception of the 3 which I left out.

A picture paints a thousand words

Lake in Dusk

Doing helper's quests for Lake in Dusk need some strategic planning. Out of the 10 quests available, I might have to give up 5, if not, I would need a minimum of 45 dungeon entry tickets. Which is a killer. The maximum number of 5 quests at any time is a restraint too.

Do-able ones (should be doing 5 out of 6):
- Quest No.37 - 20 Jidarsch
- Quest No.38 - 20 Fashik
- Quest No.39 - 20 Ballu
- Quest No.41 - 20 Hauk
- Quest No.42 - 20 Ergdusu
- Quest No.46 - 10 Zigdris Faello

Except for Quest.46 which gives 5k honor points, the rest give 3k with additional high upgrade core.

Good plan, yes?

Undead Ground Helper's Quest

I should keep a lookout for normal quests requesting the same mob, to save some time having to make second or third trips.

- Quest No.52 - 99 Lihorn Zombie
- Quest No.53 - 50 Zombie Fighter + 50 Zombie Slater
- Quest No.54 - 50 Vampire Servant + 50 Berserk Ghoul
- Quest No.55 - 50 Death Soldier + 50 Death Giant
- Quest No.56 - 50 Spector + 50 Wraith

United we stand, divided we fall

After ignoring my quests for grinding, last week was payback time trying to catch up on the more important quests. Normally I would just click next without bothering to read much, but a couple of days ago, I was stuck with good old Captain Mark just because I couldn't decide which nation to opt for. Zero, whose level was ahead of mine was much more of a slacker than me, so I was the first in our 8-men guild to face the dilemma of choosing a side to belong to.

I was in the quest room for a good hour and annoyed almost everyone in guild with constant "how how how, which one to choose!". Finally, the decision was to go for Capella. We all agreed that it sounds a lot better than Procyon. Female leader rules too. Ha ha.

I am now a Capella(n); Procyon-ians, see you guys in War channel. Rawr.

Prometheus or Prometeus?

Whoever did the translation and proof-read for CabalSea need to be singled out and shot. Granted, I should have taken the initiatives to do a spell check but it didn't occur to me that the name would be taken from a character in Greek mythology. Zero was asking for a guild's name and since I was doing the "Prometeus" quest and coupled that with a lack of originality, suggested using it. The worse thing is, there is another guild with the correct name running around. Bummer.

Taken from Wikipedia:
Prometheus (Ancient Greek: Προμηθεύς, "forethought")^[1] is a Titan known for his wily intelligence, who stole fire from Zeus and gave it to mortals for their use.

Dummy's droppings

Does anyone know if skill dummies drop items after their HP diminished? Maybe it was one of the random monster that strayed into the skilling area, but I picked a high upgrade core yesterday! He he.

Skill XP calculation

I saw this formula someone posted in the forum but I can't vouch for it's accuracy.

Formula to calculate Skill XP:
(Taken from here, credit goes to ToonXW)

For punching, one can gain 3 Sword/Magic points. Adept will not affect the overall experience gained from punching or using normal attacks.

Casting an attack skill:
"Cast time of skills" * 12 = gained Skill XP

Casting a buff skill:
"Cast time of buff" * 3,6 = gained Skill XP
3 for some buffs and 6 for others.

Adept items just adds to the skill xp. Maximum bonus skill exp is 36. The maximum skill exp you may gain from adept is therefore 36.

Example:

Force Archer Skill "Power Shot" at level 9
Casting time: 1.3 Sec.
Used equipment:
Board +4
Citrine Crystals +8
Adept Rings + Amulet (Level 80 Items) +20
Adept Aramid Battle Suit +4
(all in all +36 Skill XP)

Calculating:
"Casting time" * 12 = 15.6
15.6 + "Skill XP Items" (36 Skill XP) = 51.6 Skill XP

The weather has been kinda hot

A new hairstyle and costume for Eli. Doesn't she look so chic now?

Archer in disguise

Psst ... don't let Zero know that I took one of his sword. Ha ha. Shh.

Thou shalt be honorable .. for now

A drop of 11k in honor points, for initiating a second pk after my first one. I wasn't too worried till I read that honor points are used/needed for crafting. Oh well. Time to keep a lookout for glory potions or plates of honors!

In case anyone is interested to read more, here's the page.

[P.S I was able to warp around maps though, using the warp points for premium users.]

They heard me?

Premium channels ... bliss. =)
