Magma dungeon is a famous grinding spot in ROPH due to the mob density. My friends organized an adventure for this dungeon to somehow break the monotonous solo leveling that we have. Based on our invites we had an overwhelming attendance so most of us wants some party play.
Location:
Magma dungeon is located at Juno territory. From Juno city exit down then exit right. The portal on the middle right part of the map is the entrance to the Magma dungeon. Be careful though since there are aggressive monsters on the area such as Harpy and Demon Pungus. Sometimes there are Priest offering their warp service going to this map from Prontera or Payon or Alberta.
Cast:
As I have mentioned earlier we have an almost full party due to massive response from our friends. We didn't require any job specific as long as we have at least a Priest and a Wizard. We also agreed on certain level cap so that we can accommodate an even share party. We are happy that Chazrelle and Butterscotch has taken the Support roles while Synonym has taken the mob killer role.
The Adventure:
We agreed to meet up in Alberta stairs to organize ourselves. The important equips that we required during to participants is to at least have Pasana compounded armor and Insurance. Pasana armor will ensure survival since the most deadly skills of the monsters are fire property. The Insurance on the other hand will ensure that we wont loss exp if we die.
Few of my friends show up during our meeting time though the rest of those who committed informed us that they will be late. So as not to waste time we began our adventure into the Magma Dungeon.
Waking on the first floor of the map is such a breeze since there are few mobs at the entrance. It will be a different story if a clump of mob is at the entrance. This is a common problem for adventurers because the entrance of the first floor is prone to mob and has killed a lot of innocent adventurers.
Once we reached the second floor it's time for serious experience gain. I acted as a lurer for the team since I have the highest health and has access to the skill Endure. I still don't have access to Devotion during our adventure so I cannot help out in keeping people alive. Synonym as I have mentioned is our main killer supported by Chazrelle and Butterscotch. The rest of the group are assigned to break frozen monsters.
Our two Priests are very active in not letting people die. Unfortunately some of our friends does not have Pasana carded armor and at times they are one shot by Nighthmare Terror's Soul Strike of darkness. It cannot be controlled that there will be casualties during the mob phase of our adventure. The good thing is they are Resurrected immediately.
Our original plan is to camp-out on a certain area of the map. From there we will set-up a pre-cast where all the damage takes place while some of the members will lure monsters into the pre-cast. But since we had this adventure on a War of Emperium night most of regular grinders of the map were not there. The monster spawn tends to be cleared on our area but most of them are clumped on other areas. So we don't have a choice but to move around instead.
As we go through our adventure, one by one our late friends caught up with us. We tried to meet them up at the second floor entrance so as not to welcome them with an instant death due to mob. They blend in easily with the team and knows what will be their role.
Our plan is still walk around the map to get the cluster of mobs that spawned somewhere. Thankfully, Butterscotch is generous to us by providing unlimited sanctuary during the mob phase. As a learning from this adventure, Kyrie Eleison is a better way of keeping people alive than constantly healing. It saves a lot of SP from our Priests.
Our adventure goes on through the night. We had the cycle of luring mob, walking, finding the clusters on the map. At some point we also used Giant Fly Wing to find the spot where there are cluster of mobs.
I believe we spent around 2 hours in roaming map. I checked my experience and it gained a little bit. That's understandable since we had a huge party. The most important part of our adventure is we are doing this with our friends.
Our current maps does not really have good maps where we can have an adventure with a large party but we did it anyways. We ended our night with some pictorials. Until our next adventure ~
