I hope Gravity won't find this offensive if they come across it, it's not intended to be. Besides you can no longer abuse summoned MVPs.

For those who participated in it, I imagine you all have stories of death... and funny things happening.

My story begins when I was a level 75 Magnus Exorcimus Priest "Fuse.". I got sort of got invited to level with my guild during the time: Deity. We had all started new characters in someway or another. So we were looking for a fast way to level. MVP farming had just come out... discovered by who the heck knows.

My Experiences
Usually we had a mental strength monk, vit knight, or blacksmith tanking Lord of Death for us. Pretty much my role in the matter was to form a party (which usually was full with the max of 12 players), set it to share, and simply casted Magnus Exorcimus level 10 as fast as possible (constantly). Hundreds if not thousands of bluegems were consumed by it. But by doing so I gaining 7 levels in only single digit hours

Occassionally someone stopped healing or someone would try to pick up an item (from the minion drops) and accidently click the MvP. That usually resulted in death of everyone! Usually the high levels being the main people mad about it all. In retrospect it was quite funny.

The MVP Farm Recipe
Then it was our guild leader's idea that we go to a private area such as guild dungeon, summon 4 LoDs with the help of int/dex bards/dancers using supportive spells like magical strings and powercord. He tanked all of them. All of a sudden my guild leader went from 84-97 in a matter of a day or two. I only heard about that... but that's nuts, you need like 2 or 3 priests constantly casting heal none stop, cuz that's gotta be at least 2,500-3,000 damage every one and a half seconds!

What was great

While I never participated, i never had anything against it and frankly, I wasn't pleased when it was removed. Nevertheless, I have a story.

I was on my at the time aco, Neko Miroku (whom I to this day think had the coolest build) and my at the time girlfriend's aco, Lunae Lumine.

We were at the northern end of Pront and a friend was PCing near the Palace bridge. While he didn't see me, I knew what he was doing, so I quickly said "Let's get out of here quickly, people are gonna die". No sooner had I said that, then Moonlight Flower spawned and killed a novice that was just wandering by. Seeing this, I simply said "See?" and we ran off, escaping t3h 3b!L B3LL.

I never was a fan of LoD, and my Knight was tainted by it only for 1%... and nothing more. My wizzie on the other hand... yeah... he pretty much went from Mage to Wizzie from LoD. But this still didn't make me support LoD and folks farming him. So when they took out the ability to farm MVPs... I was relieved about it (heck... we'd probably have a multitude of 99 Trans Classes right now...).

Heh... so you were in Deity, eh Fuse? Taking orders from good old Vince Jadefrost and his angry self... hehehe...

I fear his damn Knight... damn thing has the highest Defense in the game. Never believed it until I saw him mobbing up C2... maybe about half the whole map was on him! Crazy bastard.... hehehe...

omg how the hell do monks do that

Kinju 20 years 8 months ago wrote:

Simple really. Just keep their SP full at all times, have lots of STR and INT, have level 5 Ashura with you, and have really, really good equipment. Also, bring a Priest in with you and have him bless you.

XIII09 20 years 8 months ago wrote:

so,you don't need to max asura to lvl10?

IdyotAko 20 years 8 months ago wrote:

Asura (or Guillotine Fist) only goes up to 5.

And 25k is actually kinda low... pure builds can deal more than that... add a Lex Aeterna to that... yeah...

My Lord Knight survived a GFist once... made sure the monk payed for leaving me alive... /gg
