Ok we are almost done with g12! How do you feel people! G13 is just around the corner! I wonder who will be the first to get that hax sword of elsinore!

If it gets transferred over from KR, of course.

Yeah and..oh there’s going to be another CTF event coming tomorrow! Sort of like GB without pets if I am not mistaken. Doing special tasks to help your team will win you exclusive titles…because you need as many as you can get, right?

***A note to all you prospective mentor applicants out there***

I know that we have basically no requirements for these applications, but please don’t bother if you

a) lack basic english skills

b) have little to no knowledge of game mechanics

c) are not willing to work hard to improve yourself

The purpose of our mentor applications are to help (I like to call them “young prodigies” ;] ) aspiring Mabinogi players who might not have been playing for a long time to improve their skills and eventually join the guild as a real member. If you lack any of the three above recommended requirements, please do not apply for a mentor application because I assure you it will be a waste of your time and our time. To date, I have mentored only one success story, my friend Context. I would like to see more people like him apply for mentor and more mentor applicants showing his initiative. Thank you.

G13 will also be implementing a class system and theatre missions, as well as different weapon masteries that give great stat boots in exchange for a trivial amount of AP.

Keep your eyes peeled for new updates!

Hey, everyone! How are you all on this faaahn summa day?

As Kyo has most graciously informed us, the Dragon Boat Racing event is back.

It involves (Short version ;D)

1. Taking La Terra Highlands Mana Tunnel and heading to the raft start point.

2. Gathering a party and firewood.

3. Applying for a boat to be made (costs 5k, talk to the Native by the raft start point).

4. Clicking to enter the boat.

5. Clicking on one of 8 boat paddles, hunkering down, and rowing when the boat starts.

**Many parties have designated steerers and most proclaim “no steering”, so be cautious **

6. Along the way, Hobogoblin bandits, shamans, and whatnot will attempt to shipwreck you by means of river pirating. IGNORE ALL the hobogoblins EXCEPT the ones that jump onto the raft. Parties will usually have a predetermined hit man to take these out.

7. REMEMBER, stick to the paddle at all times! When you get hit, stick to the paddle. When crit smashed by a hobogoblin( ) -maybe you can drink some hp potions- stick to the paddle!

8. If the less than eight minutes have elapsed when you reach the finish point, you will be awarded a dragon boating prize box, which contains so-so rewards!

Prize List: http://wiki.mabinogiworld.com/index.php?title=Dragon_Boat_Racing_Event

9. Stay on the boat for a few minutes after it docks, and you will be transported back to the loading station by La Terra Mana Tunnel!

If anyone wants to raft just hit me up!

‘Till next time.

Oh Oh Oh and a shoutout to Vi for helping me with white spider farming…You’s Awesome ^^

Hi everyone!

This is Baiyu, a recently joined member of Aesir Guild! As an attempt to liven up the website and add more game-related help/hints, I will be starting regular posts that combine a bit of op. ed. (opinionated editorial) combined with random tidbits of in-game info.

This is my pilot post, please don’t be too harsh

On Tara Fair

IT’S BACK AGAIN: the spectacle that gives mountains of ego food in the form of fair prizes to contestants with little lag (<–hammer), and leaves the rest in the dust! There are two games – the more popular hammer and darts. Hammer prizes include cat paw club, conky glasses, purple rose bouquet, yukata (M) nontradeable, japanese fan (nontradeable), likeability potions, and WOOD BOARDS (!). This is a godsend for the skill of handicraft, which is usually near-impossible to train due to the difficulty of obtaining wood boards. Since there is such a large influx of wood boards, I suggest you get yer’ handicraft on! (easy dex). Darts is less popular, and tends to reward players with mushroom cookies, fireworks, and mocha drinks. Yay.

ALSO don’t forget: FREE Tara waxen wings in the Cash Shop every day, one time use, 24-hour expiration date. Use it to warp directly to Tara (and I’m not sure if you can use them in Iria or not).

On Capture the Flag Event

from MabiWiki: The Ice Capture the Flag event has experienced a time adjustment. It will now run from 4:00 PM PST to 8:00 PM PST (7:00 PM EST to 11:00 PM EST).

In my opinion a very poorly planned out event, it consists of joining either a red or a blue team at Port Ceann at the time when Lorna and Pan spawn at Port Ceann in Uladh and either 1)running back and forth the playing field trying to obtain watermelons from the other team and bring them back to your own base or 2)”camping” others by constantly freezing them, waiting for them to defrost, then freezing them again. This “camping” is aided in large by the lack of knowledge that tapping your own team member allows them to defrost. Sadface. The rewards are (as Jewelie mentioned below) pirate clothing that is to my knowledge, UNREPAIRABLE.

On Project RM

While this event sounds extremely rewarding (prizes consist of 30 Nao Soul Stones, a “never-to-be-released”  pet and premium character card), the qualifications are both quite confusing and challenging. My understanding of this event is as follows:

1. You “recruit” a friend to make a Mabinogi account, i.e. a Nexon Passport.

2. They must create a Nexon Passport after project RM has started.

3. They must refer you (which they do on the website Nexon.net when they are logged in, under the event tab).

4. Both you and the new character must complete g1, g2, and g3.

http://forum.nexon.net/Mabinogi/forums/thread/5053893.aspx

*according to this thread, players WHO GET REFERRED BY THE NEW ACCOUNT that have skipped g1, g3 are able to go back and do it, though they would not be able to otherwise.

“We will make a special exception for older players who have skipped Advent of the Goddess and Dark Knight. Of course, we think it benefits user experience for players who participate in all the mainstream storylines! Note that a NEW player MUST complete Advent of the Goddess, Paladin, and Dark Knight mainstream story quests. If you are new, DO NOT skip these quests!”

Also, a new character account finishing those mainstream quests, which are mostly solo? Sounds at least tedious, if not difficult, to me.

Conclusion

Nexon has planned plenty of exciting things to keep us occupied during the dog days of summer. Hope to see you all soon!

This is Baiyu, signing off. Till next time~
