Guild Adventure at Glast Heim Castle

Archive Post from July 2009

Last Friday July 17, 2009, angel_sweet16 has organized an adventure to the Glast Heim Castle for everyone in the guild. Most of our new guildmates were either new to the game or old players who had just made a come back. All of them were still on the stage of coping with the latest feature that Ragnarok Online has to offer and absorb information that we give them.
  
So far the only thing that we taught them is more on fast leveling up with the use of the mercenary system at Moscovia Dungeon. Aside from these, we also taught them about the Alberta Daily Quest to complement their daily experience gain. But leveling up through the mercenary system is not that enjoyable since you just have to sit and wait for the experience to come. My friend Angel thought of making their Ragnarok experience more enjoyable by organizing a trip to the Glast Heim castle.

There were no specific roles given for each adventurer. The objective of this trip is just to enjoy the bonding and somewhat had a coordination with each other. The participants for this trip were:

•     angel_sweet16 – a High Priest
•     John Constantine. – a High Priest
•     Rokuemon Matsuki – a Minstrel (Glast Heim trip only)
•     ~ Herbie Boy ~ - a Paladin (Sunken Ship trip only)    
•     .blur. – a Wizard
•     Shikage – a Wizard
•     Kohi – a Hunter
•     Ayano^^ - a Hunter
•     grim_13 – a Crusader

  
We started the adventure by meeting up at the city of Magic, Geffen city. This is the easiest route to reach Glast Heim. Not all of us had availed the premium service so we decided to just walk towards Glast Heim.  

Upon reaching Glast Heim, we immediately walked towards the Glast Heim Castle. Then we started the preparatory buffs from our High Priest. I started playing some songs for additional buffs then we started murdering monsters one after the other.

After some heavy battle with the demons at the Glast Heim castle the group rested for a while to regain some sp. We had a little chat, gave some instructions, tips for battling and joke around.

When everybody has rested and gained some precious sp, the group started to battle again. During a heavy mob, there were casualties on the party. Most of the time our Wizards were always the victim. Even with two High Priest on the party, they had a hard time protecting each member of the party.

The adventure that we had during that day reminds me of the old days. People were not that godly enough to spend leveling up alone. Large parties like we had that day were very common at the guild dungeons and heavy mob area. Suddenly I reminisce having large party at the Luina Guild dungeon. All the Wizards were spamming Storm Gust on a side of the map while the Priest supports them and patiently wait for the Knight or Crusader to bring mobs on their spot. The new trend that we have now is more on mercenary dependent at low level then proceed to leeching at Thor’s Volcano or Biolabs. I can only see few adventurers who had the drive to visit the whole midgard.
