EO Gold

2009-12-17T21:21:00.003-05:00

Okay, I know I haven't posted since being back-- had to play EO for a while to get a feel of whats been going on TO post, so here it is.

As most of you playing the main server have realised, there has been another gold dupe, and to a lesser degree, an item dupe aswell. While this in it self isnt a huge surprise, there isnt anything we as players can do about it.

My recommendations about all of this is, if you have a paypal, buy some gold-- its super cheap (Normally i wouldnt recommend this, just dont spend too much, it is just a game).. And with this gold, buy all those items youve been wanting. Just make sure you use almost all of the gold you buy on items (Personnaly, bought a turtle, and in the market for a panda). The reason being.. the last time there was a dupe, and it got out of hand, all the gold got removed by limiters placed on EO. So invest in items, not the gold itself.

Real world example: The econamy is really poor at the moment in most places, making currency in the grand sceme, going down in value.. what is going up in value? The items we use to buy it with-- mainly to say Gold, this wil never go down in value, but the money used to get it, will.

So please, use your gold, get those items you have been wanting, and be happy and wait for the gold wipe (I know global has been talking about a server wipe, but trust me, that wont happen for a while. No point in it, cheating, and glitches need to be fixed first-- or the same things will happen) A gold wipe however, probably will happen. There also may be a rollback-- but thats unlikely.

As always, its a game, have fun.

Rebirth

2009-10-16T19:56:00.001-04:00

Sorry everyone, for me not posting.. in forever, ive been massively busy, too busy to even keep up with EO. So i dont have any news at the moment, but ill try to catch this blog up as soon as possible.

And thank you for anyone who kept coming, even though the blog seemed dead. Dont worry, it will be back up to its full potential as soon as possible!

EO Record!

2009-03-17T19:21:00.002-04:00

Vult-r
Arvid
Rexor
Teror

All on... at the same time. Thats right, 4 admins. This hasnt been scene in years.

With this, and the news of a new drop item at Apozen Overlord (Aeven grocery at the bottem floor)

EO has been going though small updates as of late.. maybe all leading to v.29.

~Linkfan

Apozen Overlord?

2009-03-17T18:05:00.007-04:00

Okay, big news.

After random jailings for a while for the first time in a long long time, 3 admins are online

Arvid, Rexor, Teror

And they made a shocking announcement..... Apozen drops a new weapon... Fire Wings.

Here are their announcements:

Weather these are /really/ them or not is unconfirmed. Since this seems out of character.

Ill leave it upto you, but im going to Apozen, /just/ in case.

Update!:

Okay, now im failry sure it IS NOT the admins online, and in fact they have been hacked, and the hackers are trying to scam EO citizens! Beware, and DO NOT DONATE. As most people know, NAMINEE and YORI were both walled and banned several times yesterday, so the fact that they are mentioned i feel is supicious.

Nina said it really Is them, and that they are just having fun

The Hall of Pain

2009-03-06T11:47:00.003-05:00

There are a few new addons to the Biters at Aeven Grocery, called The Hall of Pain. Most of them is a royal pain in the ass to anyone without alot of potions since SP wont recover. There alot of Pillar Staired rooms, where you must pick which way you want to go, and hope you pick the right one.

If your lucky enough to be able to survive, there is a room with a chest in the middle. It is confirmed to spawn Turtles, Deviles, Pandas, every few days (Not sure the exact spawn time, but expect people to be there.. just about all the time), the room also spawns biters, so people who Auto.. can be killed fairly easily, so dont worry about them.

Anyway, have fun.

Sickshot? Arvid? Rettan? Oh my.

2009-02-14T20:03:00.002-05:00

Well, last night being friday the 13th, i was a little busy. But when i get online today, i find some disterbing news. =\

Last night Arvid was behind the counter at the bank, with Sickshot; people were protesting this because they felt Sickshot may be rewarded for 'hacking' (Or being bribed to stop?), like others have before. Anyway; one of the new people there was Rettan (Eo Voice, JET Leader, etc etc). Anyway; Rettan being a key protester there was kicked, he logged back in and continued. (Which i feel is a bad example to begin with; he owns a blog. He shouldnt be wasting time standing there bitching when people look upto him) Anyway; Arvid eventually teleported him behind the bank counter. And then they talked. (So he would shut up); After talking for a bit, Arvid logged. Sickshot and Rettan held event for a Doc. Which Rettan wore, (Hm..)

Now, i consider a Rettan a friend; but this behavior for him i find unaccepable. If i didnt know any better, i would call him an "eo spice girl" as he puts it. Not to call him a hacker, because he isnt. But more to point to the fact that he was causing problems long enough to get attention, that he was somewhat rewarded for it. Which is annoying.

Key points; No i do NOT have a problem with Rettan, i just feel he needs to straighten up a little and act a little more respectable and not complain as much. He just shouldnt get special treatment because he owns a blog and complains; because news flash-- alot of people do.

Anyway; other news: Happy Valintine's Day.

Vult's Redemption!

2009-01-20T01:14:00.004-05:00

Yesterday, Vult happened to fix the duping, and the no-names were fixed also. There is, thus far, not a rollback, however, one can be expected within the next few weeks before v.29 is released.

The anti speed patch was removed a few days ago, due to causing server instability. Vult is currently fixing it up. It will probably be released on EO again when v.29 is released.

~Endlesxhorse

Rexor Hacked!

2009-01-18T23:06:00.004-05:00

Yes, today at around 10:50 EST, someone logged into Rexor's account and simply said, "v.29 will not come out". Global, of course, freaked out thinking it was really Rexor, but several people who have him on MSN, such as myself, realize that it really wasn't Rexor. Soon after making this announcement, the hacked Rexor logged out, and the real Rexor logged onto MSN to confirm that it wasn't him in EO; he had been called on the telephone by Vegasfiniest to let him know he was hacked, and Rexor quickly replied, and signed into MSN, then EO to confirm that it wasn't him on EO, that it was a hacked, and that v.29 is indeed coming out.

Who the hacker is, is unknown; it could be another learning a new trick. Anyway, it WAS a hacker, and v.29 will come up eventually. Never trust even an admin if they come on and make unbelievable claims like this on EO- chances are its a hacker.

~Linkfan

No names and unstable server

2009-01-18T12:59:00.004-05:00

Back again, because the news right now is just not stopping!

I know I am a little late to the game about this, mainly because I thought it was going to pass quicker than it is, is the epidemic. I decided to post about it now, mainly because there is 6 on, and one of them is over level 100.

These are tell-tale signs that this is getting out of hand, 1 on a day or whatever is (I'm not going to say fine), but its bearable. If these people want to keep cheating like this (Though the benefit of it is.. well, none?), Will only make it fixed faster, thus ruining their fun. So whoever released this to so many people screwed the pooch.

Anyway; It seems that Anti-Speed isn't "perfect", as in some people can still speed, and on top of that, it seems that "Anti-Speed" may be the reason for the server freezing and crashing. Though that is just a theory, but personally, I believe the cheat may be causing server unsuitability, and its just that, or that plus the anti-speed which is the cause of the random freezes and crashes.

Happy 1 year Aniversery

2009-01-16T13:09:00.004-05:00

Sorry I didn't say this a few days ago, happy 1 year anniversary to "Link's Word", started last year on January 14th.

Thank you for all of those who have visited this blog for the passed year, and have continued to support me. Truly, thank you. I know I wasn't always active in posting, but when it came down to it, the news you needed to know was told, thank you, and lets hope for another good year. :)

~Linkfan

Rollback?

2009-01-16T12:59:00.003-05:00

I log in today, and I see a lot of people on global whining that there was a rollback. I'm not sure if there was in fact a rollback, or people are just blowing smoke. Because, if there was a rollback, I wasn't affected, and others seem not be either. So I personally didn't have a rollback, but if there was, maybe only some people were affected. So make sure you have what you think you have, and if you lost anything, sorry. Rollbacks are for the best server-wide, please try to look passed your loss to see that. Thank you.

Hell on Earth--er- Aeven.

2009-01-15T13:21:00.005-05:00

Yes, its true. The "Hell Event" is back in EO, though somewhat useless at this point.

Along with this hell Event.. Anti-Speeding is now in affect, you DC if the server thinks your speeding, along with the server annousing it to EO for all to know, lets see how this anit-speed goes.

The gates to apozen are now in Aeven Square, and north Aeven. and Aeven itself, has litterally gone to hell, with hell gates, bones, blood, gore everywhere, along with Chaos Spawn all over Aeven.

Like i said, it is nice to see /something/ happen in EO, but it is useless at this point. Besides the shortcut to Apozen, which is wayy overly crowded due to it being flooded, spawn protection, and Apozen being increadably weak. And chaos spawn, only dropping dark blades.. which dont cost much to begin with, the price will only drop further.

This is a nice start to the rejuvination of EO, and a welcomee event to stir something in EO.

Merry Christmas

2008-12-14T19:42:00.002-05:00

Well, its that time of year again.-- im posting this now, just in case i dont later.

As you know, there is no real news to report besides the fact that Aeven has been christmas-afied.
Which shows that Vult hasnt completly forgotten about EO--which is good news. I know some of you think that the "Christmas Aeven" map is something that is auto-put when it becomes december-- but if that were true, christmas wouldnt have lasted well into March earlier this year. And who knows, we may even get v.29 for christmas (doubt it, but you never know, vult did say expect big things this year).

Anyway, Merry Christmas, happy holidays, falice navidad, etc, etc.

I leave you with this picture of my neice for the holidays!

Thank you.

Odd news.

2008-11-02T03:03:00.002-05:00

Apparently for those of you who don't know.

About a half hour ago, all bosses stopped spawning completely. Very strange, along with this, all monsters in general, had unusual spawn times, though boss' (Octo, Apozen, Reaper, Adoundo Leader) didn't spawn at all.

Now-- 30 minutes later, they have just resumed spawning at normal rates, and bosses started spawning again.

Some people think this is because of Day Light Savings Time, while possible, unlikely because this has never happened before. This could have been a small bug that was caused by DLST, but nothing to really worry about.

Always.

My birthday

2008-09-17T14:10:00.002-04:00

Sorry for lack of posts. Well, thats mainly because of the lack of news. Besides some people being dumb and getting scammed, there is nothing to really report. So insted, im making a post about my birthday.

My birthday is September 1st. It already passed, i know.

Well, last year, for my 18th birthday, i got ahold of Teror via MSN and asked if he could help me with an event, i wanted to throw myself a birthday party in EO. :D

The prizes were (Take in mind this was a WHOLE year ago xD)

1st: 500k
2nd: Dark Endura (Just released)
3rd: Crossbow
4th: Crossbow

Anyway, i just found out today, someone made a youtube video of my birthday party, so im going to share it. EVEN THOUGH, the person say its Teror's event, instead of mine, its fine.

2008-05-29T16:33:00.003-04:00

Well, surfing the internet and i randomly found this video, it is in 2 parts, and is very funny if you have ever played a zelda game, or like to make fun of them.

I now present you...

Since alot of you still cannot figure out how to change servers. I will give you a break down guide of how to switch to the new Main Server, Test Server, And show those who want to get to the Old Server, ill show you how.

Note: This guide is for Window's Users.

Step one: Click on "Start"
Step two: Click into "My Computer"
Step three: Click into "Local Disk (C:)" or whichever your hard drive's name is
If you have your Endless Online folder, skip the following step
Step four: Click into "My Program Files" Or whichever file name your Endless Online folder is in.
Step five: Click into Your "Endless Online" Folder
Step six: Click and open the file called "econfig"; Note not the FOLDER called "config"
Step seven: Click and delete the IP in the box
Step Eight. Enter one of the following IPs to go to whichever server you want.

New Main Server: 72.232.135.114
Test Server: 72.232.19.170
Old Server: 72.232.0.178

Whichever IP you put in, you will go to that server when you click into the game.

Now: To eliminate the need to ever change the ip again if the server switches IPs, change the ips too:

Main: game.endless-online.com
Test: test.endless-online.com

You still need to enter 72.232.0.178 to get to the old server though.

NOTE: If you want to play the old server, note that NOTHING YOU DO will affect you on the new server, so feel free to buy anything you ever wanted, but didnt want to waste the money.

This new server

2008-05-20T12:04:00.003-04:00

Well, today is the official first day i've played on the new server, and here is my recap so far:

[-] It is very laggy
[-] I have DCed more times on this server in 30 minutes, then i have in all v.28
[-] I have yet to see 1 speeder/cheater-- EDIT: Speed hasn't been fixed
[+] There has been tops 450 people on so far- probably due to many people still on old server

All in all, it feels like v.15 again. :D Now all we need is a better econamy, and it will be exactly like the EO of olde, but with items of the present. The server still has some bugs, but it has only been out for a day. So, if you people are having the same problems as me, just wait it out.

~~Linkfan~~

Shocker.

2008-05-19T16:04:00.004-04:00

Well, I logged into EO today.. to notice Wraiths all over the bonespider area. So like a normal person in EO, i freaked when i couldnt hurt them and they could hurt me. So i turned to global, and learned that everyone now has Good Force wings.

To use them, go to your paperdoll, take them off, and put them back on.

Now, the wraiths do say something. " you are playong on the OLD server please be patience untill the new server comes online! use game.endless-online.com or IP 72.232.135.114 to connect to the new server, thank youwww"

Now, this means, the server you are on RIGHT NOW, is a side server, and that you need to change your EO ip to 72.242.135.114 to be able to connect to the "Real" EO, and not this side server.

What this new server means, i don't know yet, maybe v.29 soon, but it is too soon. Now, if you want to stay on the Side Server, by all means go ahead, but remember, the Wraith Guardians will attack you, and they are on every map.

Im on the side server now, but my IP is changed, so when i relog i will be on the main server. So, you can do the same if you like.

A man down.

2008-05-01T15:55:00.000-04:00

In blog news today, it seeems my map man Gate, seems to want to stop updating the EO wide map, as he has lost the passion for it. I will keep urging him to finish it at least, because right now it remains half done, but for future updates i doubt he will put in as much effort into what he has done so far to finish. And if worse comes to worse, i will finish the map myself, or hire someone else.

A note to Wickedfrost, Yes it is indeed sad that smallville will not air any new episodes til next week. But at least next week's promises to be a very good one. With Clark maybe going years into the past, to Krypton to save his baby self from Brainiac. But luckly this should hold me and you over, and anyone else who needs their fix of smallville.

EO's past, and EO's future.

2008-04-25T15:48:00.002-04:00

Education time.

In this post, I will try to educate some people on OLD eo terms that arent really used anymore, even though the actions are still there.

1: KS, short for Kill Steal- Back before kill steal protection, many players would let others hit monsters, then just take the last hit and get all exp and items.
2: DS, short for Drop Steal- Back when autoclickers worked, people used these to steal other people's drops from monsters. Most commonly used at the Reaper.
3: SS, short for Super Speed, Basicly the old term for "HS" which is hyper speed, these are exactly the same thing, why the term changed, i dont know.
4: woot, Origins in EO are back before magic, when you hit the f1 key, you would raise your arm (Like how you do when casting), and a 'woot' sound would happen. But before this, it originates with the game Doungin's and Dragons, short for "Wow Loot"

5. Will EO be wiped? Contray to popular beleif, this will most likely not happen, ive talked to several admins and have gathered that vult has no set plan to do so, yet. This doesnt mean EO will never get wiped, because it will 1 day.
6. Scammer? Sorry EO, scammers are NOT real. What you think of a scammer, is just someone who is using a slick trick to trick you. It isnt agaisnst EO rules, it is just very immoral. But not many in EO have morals anyway, so don't complain when you were stupid enough to trust someone with something you'd be sorry to lose.
7: Prices? The current prices are only temporary, so if you MUST have something, then go ahead and waste your money on something that will most likely be cheaper in as little as a weak, then will probably go up again in 2 weeks, so on and so forth. But when you are offering over 900k on ANY item, it just isnt smart, no item is worth it, specially when there is a 2million gold limit in place now.

8: Most things in EO are fixed, and speeding is currently only fixed on test, not main as of yet, but it will be put in place soon, so dont worry.
9: You no longer need to worry about having you client crash, because that bug is fully fixed on both servers.
10: Dupping is fixed, so this will help bring down prices soon.

Keep these things in mind please.

Changes in EO, part 2

2008-04-22T23:57:00.002-04:00

Well, as my 2nd day posting again, I decided to find a nice big post for you all, and finally my friends, I have one.

My sources inform me that v.29 is ready to be released in test, and will be in about 2 weeks. Yes, big news. But along with this, i have done you all 1 better, i can give you suttle details of what i know about v.29 thus far.

1. New Maps (Obvious)
2. New Magic (3 to be exact)
3. RUMORS that the Job system will be used, and small evidence to show that it will build off the class system. Example: Say your class is a Warrior, what jobs would a warrior have? Maybe a Hunter? Paladin? Tempar? Maybe you're a Rogue. what jobs could they have? Maybe a mercenary? Who knows.

That is all the info i have right now, i will try to scrape some up for tomorrow.

1 final note: The release on the main server, is rumored to be close (within a week after) of it being released on test.

Changes in EO, part 1.

2008-04-22T01:01:00.002-04:00

Sorry about the lack of posts lately, it seems that I wasn't as faithful as i thought i was going to be, but nevermind that, i had things to do. I did find the time to post this, which if feel is very important.

1. Most dupping has been fixed in EO
2. Spamming has been fixed in Eo
3. EO Wide freeze caused by Vult-r by accident while he was working on the server to fix bugs. You could close your client, log into an alt to find that your char is still online and hang with yourself. Fun, Right?
4. Lottery Event yesterday: An event was held in the new addition to the event area (Lottery Area), where some lucky players got Doctor's, Nurses, Chefs outfits.
5. EO IS CURRENTLY DOWN (1am EST) and has been for quite a while. Do NOT panic, this is probably because vult is fixing something on EO, or it has crashed from something he has fixed earlier, and he will address when he can. Please, get a bite to eat, sleep, and relax. Your EO wont be out for long.
6. Prices are currently insane with no logic behind them (Ah, same old same old). Which i feel is a credit to why 13 year olds shouldnt be given money, they aren't' responsible enough to handle it, but hey, its a game.
7. tomorrow is the Pennsylvania Primary's for the presidency. (I am a registered democrat and will be voting)
8. I have been put onto Wikky's blog (yay me)
9. I bought a Nintendo Wii yesterday (And will probably sell it soon)
10. Wrestling: The funny spoof on the election was hillarious, i surgest looking it up on Youtube
11. Me and Crystal broke up (Soon after she found out she wasnt pregnate... hmm... i wonder why.. *cough*)
12. I have not given up on this blog and i hope this covered alot of issues at the moment

Okay, this was a little breifing of what went on in my absence, or at least, what has been going on in my life, and current EO.

Back to ye faithfull

2008-03-30T20:44:00.002-04:00

Okay, i have yet to log into EO faithfully for a little while now... As you all know, or at least most of you should. Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core was realeased last tuesday, and I just got around to beating it. It is a good game, so if you have a PSP and like or played FF7, I recomend picking it up.

Well, with that out of the way, i am back to blogging (At least until Kingdom Hearts 3 the PSP version is released). I will start to post the news i get from my sources.

Reminder:

2008-03-03T17:08:00.002-05:00

I have not abandoned my blog, i know it has been a few days since my last post.. and this will happen every so offten. ie: It only happens when i get a new system or new game that ive wanted to play for a long time (Just got a PSP, and have been playing FFT: War of the lions) And ive been egerly awaiting to play Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core, and Kingdom Hearts 3 (the DS, and PSP versions)

If i get any important news from one of my reporters (they know how to reach me), i will post as soon as i can..

On a last note. I tried to post to my chatbox via my PSP. it let me type in everything but when i sent it. it went to this odd black screen with a smiley face, an a frown face, and only 1 clickable option (to go back a page), i thought it was pretty funny.

Bored today..

2008-02-21T02:41:00.003-05:00

Well, as we all probably know by now, a couple months ago there was someone impersinating Wicky's blog. It failed miserably. (http://www.endlessreport2.blogspot.com/) Well, today i was bored, and got to thinking.. "Is the name Wickedflare even taken in eo?.." I tried.. and sure enough, it wasnt. So now i own the character Wickedflare. And i am fully ready to hand it over to Wickedfrost when he asks for it, since i know he would want it somewhere so no one could use it.

Just saying, because.. people got so worked up over it.. was Wickedflare even a player? Well, i mean yeah, he was obviously a player, but was there ever a Character named it?..

edit: I made a new account for Wickedflare, along with 2 other names simular to it (Wickedgust and Wickedjolt). So these 3 names belong to me, and will, until Wicky requests them from me.

Quests

2008-02-20T18:10:00.005-05:00

Well, once again, i decided to further improve my blog by making a quest section for all those who need it.

Ill use a star system to rank how hard it is.
* Easy
** Easy with some small challenge
*** Moderate
**** Dificult
***** Insane

Non-Repetable Quests:

Ancient Wraith Quest: *****

Reward: 10,000 EXP + Ancient Wraith Key (Gain entry into ancient wraith area)(Lore)

Back Story: The Ancient Wraith sits at the bottem of Haunted House, seeking those worthy to enter the final floor.

Steps:
1. Visit the Ancient Wraith at the bottem of the haunted house (contrary to beleif, the haunted house goes down , not up) And talk to him.
2. Kill Reaper
3. Talk to Ancient Wraith again (get use to this).
4. Kill Anundo Leader
5. Talk to Ancient Wraith again..
6. Kill Octopus
7. Talk to Ancient Wraith again...
8. Kill Apozen
9. Talk to Ancient Wraith again....
10. Gather 100 piggys (Recomend going to the noobie area for them)
Now, to save Time do not go back to Ancient Wraith Yet! (Unless you cannot hold more than 100 items)
11. Gather 100 Snake Teeth (Noobie area again, along with Anundo)
12. Now if you did what i said, go back to the Ancient Wraith and give him both the 100 piggys, then 100 snake teeth
13. Now you need to get Tenbas Bags (Fairly easy to get, just train at Bales, and you'll get all the exp you could use for a long time and your 100 bags.)
14. Return to Ancient Wraith and give him the 100 bags.
15. Now gather both 100 Wurm heads and 100 Imp stings. The 2 hardest items to get, so i recomend going to these 2 areas back and forth for a while so you dont get bored.

Note: I recomend to gather each item at the same time periodicly to not get bored with gathering the items, and if you have friends who are willing to help, have them get an item that you are not currently working on.

16. Head back to the Ancient Wraith and give him both the 100 Wurm Heads and 100 Imp Stings.
17. Now you need to kill 500 people in the Player Kill (PK) Areas.
Or. You could just use 500 small potions and it will act the same way (bug).
18. Go back to the Ancient Wraith, claim you reward.

The Maze: ****

Reward: 3500 EXP

Back Story: The Maze Master has been busy building the hardest maze possible, and is accepting all challengers to it!

The Maze is without a doubt, the 2nd hardest quest in EO, and the hardest quest for some people.

1. Talk to the Maze Master in the Imperial Castle.

To Complete this quest go to my Map Section for the Maze map/guide.

Truth Quest: ****

Reward: 5500 EXP or Lens of Truth

Back Story: Serf and Gullio while working on some exparments to destory all evil were attached by Apozen. Serf escaped.. but lost Gullio, and needs help to find him...

1. Go to the Swamp, talk to Serf. (He is located down a flight of stairs almost in the middle of the map nearly hidden by a tree)
2. Kill 25 Swamp Monsters
3. Talk to Serf - Learn some back story and Gullio
4. Find Gullio - Located in the Skeleton Dungeon, wandering around. Turn on your map to help find him, he looks like an Undeath because of a curse.

6. Gain 10 Herbs - Buy them at the Aeven Grocer.
7. Insted of going back to Serf, collect 10 Mushrooms (Get them right before Centaur Village)
8. Next on the list is to collect 14 blob slimes. (Noobie area is the fastest way to get them)
9. 5 Gnome dolls. (Go to Dizzy Desert, there are bound to be plenty laying around)
10. Finally return to Serf and give him all the items at once. Saving time of walking back and forth to him.
11. Serf tells you to talk to Ayla- she is located at the Witch. - Now, there is a little bug right here, being a Quest NPC herself, Ayla, if you didnt finish her quest, you will need to FINISH it to be able to talk to her about this quest (See repetable quests). And sometimes need to do the entire quest. Annoying yes, but it is easy.
12. Anyway; she sends you to the Illusion Master: Hitaru's shop. - Located in Estaq in the building next to the inn on the 2nd floor. Step in front of the book, and head back to Ayla.
13. Ayla - Tells you that the information in the book wasnt quite good enough, and needs a little more, so you need to get some good info from the source.. Apozen.
14. Head to apozen's layer in hell, located in the church behind the Skeleton Dungeon (Check the map section for the map of hell) Stand in front of his book, and head back to Ayla.
15. Talk to Ayla, she will tell you that you have everything you need to cure Gullio. And that you need to go scavenge up 5 Anceint Scrolls for the trip
16. Get the 5 scrolls and return to Ayla
17. Give Ayla 4 of the scrolls, and use the 5th and head to Ancient City.
18. Go the the Sacred Grounds. - It is located above the RIGHT HAND map of Ancient City (use the -> arrow key from the center of the city)
19. Click Ayla to begin the ritual - The map will begin to shake very violently, you can click each person to read what they have to say, and click Ayla to end the ritual. You will be teleported to Serf's Den.
20. Talk to Serf to claim your reward. But you have a choice:
a. 5500 EXP
b. Lens of Truth
- Requires you to also give Serf 10 orbs of light and knob staff.
Note: Take the exp; if you have a knob staff or get one, you can sell it for over double the price of a lens and just buy one.

Pjedro's Son: ***

Reward: 4,000 EXP

Back Story: Pjedro's son has gone missing while visiting his aunt and is in desprate need of help.

Steps:
1. Talk to Pjedro- In his house in Malone Outlet next to the Inn.
2. Talk to Pjedro's Wife; Merriad- Walking around Malone Outlet
3. Talk to Pjedro again- He will ask you to help find his son.
4. Talk to Pjedro's Sister- She is in Anundo walking around.
5. Talk to the Gaurd outside of Death Cave- (Once again, if you are in the middle of his quest, you need to finish it first before you can continue)
6. Talk to the Gaurd Captain- Located in the large arena walking around.
7. Return to talk to the Gaurd outside Death Cave
8. You find out that Pjedro's son is in the Haunted House. So go to the 4th floor of it and stand infront of the book on the podium, and receive Scroll of Truth
9. After your hopes being destoryed of Pjedro's son NOT being at the Haunted House, do the next best thing, and take the Scroll of Truth to Ayla.
10. She will then read the scroll and teleport you to The Woods of Dispair.
11. These woods are a little bit of a maze, so if you would like to figure it out on your own then go away, if you would like to cheat, highlight the following test: Acording to keyboard arrows go: Right, Down, Down, Right, Right, Right, Down, Left) To arive at the Bird Fortress.
Note: While your here, please take part in the further destruction of the Barbain and Birdman races, and the chest spawns a key.
12: Talk to Pjedro's son and you will be warped to Pjedro's house. (Note: this is not the same exact map as the one you were in before, no one can enter the map you are on unless they are at the same part of the quest so enjoy the privacy) Talk to Pjedro on this map to receive your reward.

Pirate Quest: ****

Reward: 5,000 EXP or 4,000 EXP+ 1,200 exp or Aztec Crown (Lore, can't wear)

Backstory: A pirate captian looking for adventure need's a crew, well, need's a LEAD to find his adventure...

Pre-note: Bring potions, you WILL need them (magic won't be as usefull as it)
Steps:
1. Talk to the Old Pirate at Aeven Port- He is standing on the south east ship. He will ask if you are a pirate, answer "yeah, I'm a pirate"
2. The Old Pirate needs 20 Fairy Soda, so walk out to the port, collect any fairy sodas on the ground then head to Aeven Pub and check the chests, buy the rest if needed. Don't worry about extra's cause the old pirate will take all the ones you have 20+
3. The old pirate gives you the "Old Treasure Map"(keep this with you at all times), and since you are a pirate, let's act like one.
4. Talk to the pirate captain on the ship next to the one where the Old Pirate is located.
5. Tell the pirate captian about your map, then say you stole it from a king (Cause you ROCK!) and he will then be so impressed and ask you to join him to the map's location. Say Yes (duh)
6. When aboard the ship talk to the pirate captain, and then the ship comes under attack
7. Begin to fight the Imperial Gaurds, you need to kill 50 of them. Luckly they arent hard, only give 6 EXP each, so it isnt really worth it to stay and train.
8. After you kill your 50, talk to the Pirate Captain again and he will take you to Vulture Island (Vult-r Island, get it?)
9. Enter the first pyramid.

Note: There are 2 traps in this pyramid: Visible spikes, and Sprunk Spikes. Both will deal damage acording to how much HP you have (About 2 heart's damage). To avoid the springing spikes, walk on them while they are up and you avoid damage

Note2: There is 1 curse in this pyramid: It drains 1 heart from you every 30 seconds about. DON'T WORRY SO MUCH ABOUT THIS, this curse will NOT kill you, you will go down to 1hp, then each curse hit will miss after it. But be carefull for the traps and monsters if you do get this low.

10. From the entrence you need to find the archaeologist, Dr. Gerstanisk. To find him follow these directions (Going by your keyboard arrow keys) Starting at the Entrence go: Up, Left, Down, Left, Down, Left, Up, Right. Talk to him, liten to him, he tells you about a book. So guess what ya need to find?
11. Back Track to the entrence then follow these directions: Up, Right, Right, Down, Down, Right, Right, Up, Up, Left, Left, Left. This is a big room, and the book is located in the bottem left corner of the map, step on it to get it. Beware of the Giant Worm, it gives 300exp if you want to kill it, but it attakcs fast, and the Naga's hitting you dont do ya any favors either.
12. Anyway, go back to the Archaeologist. On the way, take note of where the raisted platform is, you'll need to go to it soon.
13. Talk to him, he will thank you. Then talk to him and show him your Old Map you got the from the old pirate.
14. Return to that room witht he raised platform, which is the Alter. Stand in the little indent.. and... thats it.
15. Head back to the Archaeologist.
16. Talk to him to find out that the gate to the 2nd Pyramid. So leave this one.
17. Outside: Take time to sit and heal if you need it. The 2nd Pyramid is located right behind the first one.
18. Inside this Pyramid, you will notice it is not cursed. So you can either wander it for a long time to find the trease in the temple, or just highlight the following for the instuctions: From the Entrance, you go Left, Up, Up, Down.
19. Open the chest and receive the Aztec Crown (You cannot wear it, and it is lore)
20. The quest isnt over yet, you now have 3 choices.
a. Keep the Crown
b. Give it to the Archaeologist to receive 5,000 EXP
c. Give it to the Pirate Captain to receive 4,000 EXP and 1,200 gold.

Aren't you glad i told you to get potions?

Monkey Island Quest: ***

Reward: Pirate Hat

Backround: A Young and upcoming pirate has set sail and found an uncharted island, and want's to bring someone along to explore..

Steps:
1. You talk to the Young Pirate at Aeven Port. He tells you about the island, but tell him: "I dont Beleive you"
2. Talk to the Pirate Captain (Same one as the Pirate Quest)
3. The Pirate Captain has you kill 3 Drunken Pirates, so good luck, the campers there are good at getting most the kills.
4. Return to the Pirate Captain again and he will give you a choice of your next test. The Octo, or Atlantis. I chose the Octo because i thought it would be easier (I was a high lvl at the time so it was easier for me, so if your feeling lucky do this option its fast if your good)

4a. Octo: Located in the sewers in of the ant area near Marble (Sewers is a lvl 4 dungeon)

4b. Atlantis: Located in Death Cave. Walk in as if you are walking to the reaper, turn at the first 4-way intersection and go Left, walk past the water and around the corner, and go though the door. This is a large map with a very simple walking route, which is oddly complicated to explain. It goes in a circular paturn that has maybe 2 loops and the last loop has a sharp edge turn that will lead the door to.. Atlantis! Then you need to go to the southmost house which is down and to the right. Once inside there head to the northern part which is up and to the left of the house and walk down the stairs. There is a book just south of there, stand in front of it to collect it.

Note1: If you choose this option, collect 10 fish while here. Because you will need them later and it saves you a trip.

Note2: Atlantis is under water, and you cannot breath. So like the curse of the pyramids you will lose about 2 hearts every 30 or so seconds, but it will not kill you.

5. No matter which option you picked, return to the Pirate Captain when complete. He wants you to kill 30 ... rats. Annoying, but easy. - Best rat location is in the first couple floors of Aeven's Grocer
6. Return to the Pirate Captain who will return you to the Young Pirate.
7. Talk to the Young Pirate who will give you a quiz.
Answers: Jolly Rodgers. Double Share. Always Open.
8. You are off to Monkey Island. You can stay and kill some monkeys if you want, is okay EXP, but nothing worth dwelling here for. Go to the hut in the North East corner of the island
9. The man inside wants 10 fish, so give him the 10 fish if you collected them. Or head to Atlantis to gather them.
10. Once you give him the fish, he will give you a riddle to find burried treasure on the island.

The Burried Treasure is the reward, so it is your choice to find it or not. The riddle isnt hard to figure out, but if you want to know the location of the spot on the island it is hidden refer to my map section, look at the world map, and look at monkey island. It is marked.

11. Once you have your Pirate Hat (Lore) Talk to the Young Pirate to leave the island.

The solotion most of EO wants. People to stop going around going "u" to people. It is so simple. In an update, put in a program where you cannot send 1 lettered messeges, (i.e: you cant just say "u" you have to say more), and along with this idea, and in the same filter, block the use of letters used ecsesivly. (I.e: no UUUUUUUUUU, or @@@@@, or WWWW s anywhere) incedently, this would also stop spamming, and DCing.

With such a simple idea, a couple issues in EO are taken care of, and EO stress level drops.

Just my thought.

Back

2008-02-11T15:29:00.000-05:00

Well, I'm back after my couple day personal holiday from the computer. I went to see Juno with a friend, then we hung out, went to wal-mart, bought 2 steel rulars and had a sword fight behind Giant. Yes, I know its imature, but isnt it just fun to do imature things sometimes? Anyway, besides that. The other nights after i got off work, we talked on the phone until we passed out. Anyway, i found that to be a decent use of a couple days.

Anyway; back onto EO matters. I have nothing to really report, I haven't logged in yet. All i have to really report is about Avamay getting scammed out of $550 dollars via paypal, which i read on Wicky's blog. I will state my opinion on this matter; I am not glad she lost this money, and that she was scammed, but then again, it was her fault, she knows the risks when selling cyber goods for real money, its impossible to disprove that she was scammed (or at least next to impossible). So i dont see any way to really solve this, but to take the loss and move on. No use crying over spilled milk, you just get another glass.

Aside from this, the Endless online forums are down, and have been for days apprently.

Re: February 5, 2008:Password Recovery

2008-02-06T18:06:00.000-05:00

As stated on the EO Report, i decided to public post my reply on my blog. :)

Original Post (http://www.endlessreport.blogspot.com/):

You guys know that I'm against bringing back password recovery right?I mean, I'm a big fan of Nezlo and all but I just don't agree for a number of reasons.

1. If you've got a level 30 account and you've forgotten your password you're an idiot. How many times would you have to enter it on the way to level 30? I'm not even level 20 and I've entered mine thousands of times. If you've got a level 10 then it doesn't really matter. You can get it back in a couple of weeks. Write the damned thing down if your brain cells are destroyed by pot.

2. If you've lost your account because you've been scammed/"hacked" then you don't deserve to get your password back. Sorry. Everyone who is hacked, keylogged, or scammed deserves to lose their account. The official rule of Endless-Online regarding hacked/scammed accounts is that IT'S YOUR FAULT. You should know better. And if you don't know better -- well now you do.

3. Password recovery has a huge security issue connected to it that allowed certain players to perform a SQL Injection and actually hack accounts. That's why it was brought down in the first place. If Vult-R brings it back then everyone is at risk -- no thanks.

4. Password recovery also allows account scammers to sell their accounts and reclaim them later on. Selling them again and again. Once again -- no thanks.There are NO legitimate reasons to bring back password recovery. If you are too stupid to write your password down, keep your computer safe, or guard your personal information then you don't deserve your account back.

Password recovery is a bad idea. It's always been a bad idea. Don't bring it back.

Period.

Wikky

Well, my reply is this:

I Agree to most of the points thats Wicky made, but I do NOT feel it is always the player's fault that they have lost thier account.

Case and point:

Linkfan was hacked and deleted in v.22. I did not download anything relating to EO, i didnt even go to any websites relating to EO (besides the EO main page); hell i didnt even go in the forums much if at all. Yet, i was still hacked and deleted.

But; That was over a year ago, i managed to get into contact with Vult though Aengie, and we had a meeting, and remade Linkfan on my new account (My current one), with 40k gold, my title, and most of my exp (about 50k less exp, to even it off at 100k) I was off the top 100, but i had Linkfan back.

But like i said, this was a long time ago, and with EO in the trashhole it has been for the passed few versions, Vult and the other Admins do not have the time of day to help players like this (I priorly knew vult, so he knew i wasnt really lying)

So with this; comes my solotion. Keep password recovery gone, it poses too many risks for EO to help the few people who lost account is beyond their control, or accidently lost: (ie. my friend recently lost her account durring changing her password, she typoed twice and has no clue what it is now) And of course, Avamay's account which was lost for unknown reasons, like mine was.

Okay, but for those who DO lose their account, there should be a solotion, possibley a better way to get in touch with an admin, like I had. But we need to wait for EO to calm down cheating wise for this to happen; Or more HGMs to be instated, along with more GMs and LGs, this has been an issue for a long time, the password recorvery is just another way it is hurting EO.

New Punishment Ideas

2008-02-05T16:38:00.000-05:00

Since there isn't much to post about these days, im going to use the same idea as Wickedfrost (http://www.endlessreport.blogspot.com/ <- the URL i still use). And im going to post my solutions and ideas of punishments for the scum of EO.

Spammers/ Dcers:

Solotion: EO v.28b, with a patch to limit how many dupicuits of letters you can have in a name, you (ie. you cannot use the same letter more than 3 times). Along with this, put a block on the SHIFT key, so you cant HOLD IT DOWN AND TYPE REPETED CAPITAL LETTERS in eo, You can only type 1 letter capital for every time the shift is pressed; this will also slowdown/stop spammed '@'s.

Punishment: The punishment for these people, these people are abusing a bug in EO to not gain anything but the satisfaction of being a inconvience and annoyance ont he public of EO; I admin, sometimes they get paid, but most do not. So i feel the punishment should be MORE sever on them for wanting to be a pain in the ass; so i feel an Account Ban, IP Ban, HD Ban for 1 month would be good (the ban also for the forum).

Speeders:

Solotion: In the v.28b patch; make door gaurds, that will DC and autoban you for 15-20minutes everytime you passthough and it regesters you going at going faster than normal, and faster then lag would normaly make you go (ie: how many packages you are sending to the server ((how speeding works is the manipulation of packages, sending more then the normal person, so you can do things quicker)) and it will regesert it to be out of normal limits, and autokick the person). This will definately slow down speeders a littlebit, but not stop them. So along with this, more impluments of this need to be preformed; (ie: the server reading the packages that are being sent when holding the ctrl key ((attacking))) And will once again, kick and autoban for 15-20minutes. This shold stop most speeders in attacking. With repeted abuse of these, the server should regester itself how many times the person has DCed by this, and if it is more than 3 in a 24 hour span, Auto-kick for 1hour, then spawn in a wall in the maze/ orc fortress cave.

Punishment: For known speeders; insted of letting the server catching them and the fun being taken out of it, a new jails should be built away from EO, on a seperate map beyond a lvl 100 door in the admin room, that has a 50 hour time limit in it. (ie: the player has to be logged a total of 50 hours for the jail to autorelease them) So the person could be out in as little has 2 days and 2 hours, if they have the chunk of their life to waste. And in this jail; No trading, No Party, No Guild Chat, No Global chat. Along with being muted, so you cannot talk at all (Pms or otherwise).

Yes, this is a sever punishment, but they diserve it.

Ghosters:

Solution: Not really the worst thing you can do, but still kind of annoying. A good solotion (v.28bpatch again), is the sever to moniter cut time (the time it takes to move into someone), and if someone is doing this faster then it should be happening, the server should auto-dc them/teleport them to their "home spawn". A Slight annoyance, to a slight bother apon EO.

Punishment: See above.

Just some ideas.

EO Forums

2008-02-04T03:29:00.000-05:00

Well, thoughout browsing the forums, I notice, there are some really dumb people who post there for no real reason at all (Yes, i have done this). But some people... well, they make it.. their job just to be a moron on the forums, while sometimes they act totaly diffrent in EO, or vis versa. Why do these people act this way? I do not know. Just some thoughts since i havent posted in a while.

Any who;

I have updated the Map in the section, and included Dhex's hell map, and EO secrets in maps/ areas. And i also updated my pixel art section.

And im still hireing for Reporters on MAIN AND TEST. Im also incouraging people to give me ideas i can use to help make this blog better (i.e: New sections, guilds, players, blacklists, items etc.) i will not take the effort to make sections until they are requested.

Movies to see

2008-01-29T23:58:00.000-05:00

Well; i just got home from a movie date with my friend Crystal; since Amanda cancled cause she was grounded and we went to see.. Cloverfield, and i have to say, it is and WAS worth the 9 dollars to get in, i mean it was just a great movie. I recomend you see this movie IN THEATERS; on DVD it will suck, you need the big screen to really love it.

On Friday; alone i went to see.. Meet the Spartans; it was funny but very dumb. If you have the money to spare; go see it, but if not, just buy it used on DVD, or rent it ondemand on your cable box/ netflix/ blockbuster whatever.

Got your own movie review? Tell me and ill post it up.

It seems a scammer thought he had the better part of me; but me in my carefull ways, tested him. He said he would trade first, and he did; the nice guy even had the courage to accept the trade, leaving him open to BE scammed. But oh oh, how does he scam? He accepts, then you do what you need to do for him to get, then you accept and get the items in his trade. Me? I didnt buy it, i wanted to be SURE i wasnt beeing scammed, so i accepted his trade, then was going to switch over and accept the other trade. But... Oddly enough, when i accepted the trade, it ABORTED; we tried this several times, he pretended to not know why it was happening. So if i indeed, accepted the trade on the other before accepting it in EO, i would have been screwed. :P

Just a warning to those who buy an sell accounts, and items on other games. Make sure the EO trade is completed first.

You're warned. :)

News news news (part 2)

2008-01-27T19:05:00.000-05:00

Well, it does seem that Medusa and Amytheevil have stoped (not fully, but no longer on overdrive) with Endless Online Main Server. It seems that Medusa and Amytheevil now play another server of EO (I will not disclose any info on this server). And it seems Med and Amy will play dominatly there for a while (weather or not she will be there perminately, i do not know). But at this point in time, it does not seem really cares that she is no longer number 1 on EO; i think she just wants to relax, and i think she diserves it.

Well; its offical, Medusa is now #2 player in EO again, this time underneith Marlina. This is only the 2nd time i can recall Medusa losing her #1 spot since i started in v.14. The first time of course was when Debstar took the place and later deleted herself after some drama with Berdy and EO. Either way, Medusa claimed her spot before Debstar was deleted, so how long will she remain in 2nd place now? I have noticed lately she hasnt taken training as seriously, so this might be a sign that she might be starting to cool down and have a little more fun in eo. This of course is my opinion and may or may not be true; ill update more as i learn more.

Terror? Rexor? Vult? New admins?

2008-01-21T21:49:00.000-05:00

As per ussual, I'm one of the last to find out due to me not paying attention to MSN enough, or the sheer fact of Rexor not replying to me on MSN on friday.

(Breif Summery of Avamay's blog) Vult is no longer employed IRL, so will focus on EO more, so alot of problems in EO right now (speeding, dcing, etc) will be fixed, and is currently considering new Admins for EO, and clearing some old inactive ones (Sakura, Laine: Both have not logged in for over 20 weeks) So she stated, if new admins are chosen, they will not be "kids", and will be chosen by Vult and Aengie, and probably a Team descision for all the admins; So i think the age of the players(?) will be ages 15-16+, i think this would be the started age, because Most teens that age are normaly on, dont have jobs, and because Laine was 15 when she was hired, along with Chaos being 16.

Now, i said "players(?)" because, it Sakurakur and Mizzy were not players of Endless Online when chosen, Vult-R posted an add on devient Art for artists, which he might do again. Sakurakur was chosen, then Mizzy found out on dA and asked vult to join too, and he let her; which is why Sakura and Mizzy never got along (Sakurakur told me this).

Now, who will it be? Probably someone a little older (15+) and has been around for a while; or like i said, outsorced from another website. I for one, dont know, but i can come up with a list of some people who I think would probably do a good job at it:

Nezlo: Always cool headed, and helpfull
Wickedfrost: Not as a full admin, but some powers. He does have some issues with cheaters that i would call.. questionable.
Avamay: Always kind to players, helpfull when she can, and knows EO well.
Gate: Quite possibly the oldest person on EO that i know, knows EO well, helpfull to people, and good understanding of the game.
Eeer: Knows EO very well, very logcial, and is well liked and known by most of EO.

That is nearly all i could think of at this moment, feel free to comment any other ideas to this post. :)

Oh, and like Nezlo i didnt add my own name to the list because im sure i would not be picked, and i know people would complain of me putting my own name on the list, etc etc. So, unless i get recomended by a comment, i wont put my name up.

As a sidenote: As of vult no longer employed, I wonder what other reprocussions will happen to EO; no job = no money to pay for the server.

Reminiescence

2008-01-21T13:53:00.000-05:00

With no real news to report (Aside from Medusa almost out of her #1 spot), i found myself thinking of the old days of EO. Before levels, HP, Stats, and everything. And it makes me think, What direction is EO going in? In the old days, before any of this, and maybe as few ago as v.24 or v.25. When there were really indivuduals between people, because it didnt matter WHAT you wore. Now almost everyone wears the same things, the NEW things that come out, or just new items, to look "cool". When i strongly feel, the best pixeled armor in the game is Dragon Armor, just because of the great detail it has. I see some people who dont conform to the "stat whore" outfits, and i condone them for that feat. I will admit that i wear Oron sometimes for its stats, but that is only when i go to places where i really need it. Most of the time you'll see me in a Royal Suit or something, cause i LIKE the outfit. Why dont people wear what they like, insted they wear what makes them strong. and i think thats a shame. I miss the old days when people tried to be individuals. Oh well; days past i guess.

~~Linkfan~~

Well..

2008-01-17T15:56:00.000-05:00

I felt i needed to really post, insted of just updating the map. ill make a EO walkthough guide eventually and it will be included, and soon ill put a hotlink to its direct post on the side bar over there --->

Well, anyway as i was saying, i felt i needed to really post. No real news going on EO right now with it being back up. No real advice at the moment.. aside what i said in previous posts, you can always refer to that.

Anyway, as always, im looking for reporters to help make this blog better, more reporters = more things i can post. :) I'm also looking for "idea men" of what i could add to the blog in gernal to make it better, opinions and critisizms, ect. And i guess this is all i have for now, I'll keep updating the map (post right before this one). And have a nice day. Ill post again with news, advice, and updates :)

EO down still

2008-01-15T15:45:00.000-05:00

Well, the title of this article sums up what is going on in EO today, so I'll Give what little info i can.
The reason I do NOT think Vult-r has suffered another fine, is because he would shut down the EO forums, the EO website, and his own personal website (http://www.vult-r.com/) before he would let EO shut off, he would strech the exposable bandwidth. So this is why i think EO is down due to other issues (Maybe update: not v.29, but just glitches maybe spamming. Or Speeding and Spamming have caused EO to glitch and shut down until vult resets it, he said a few weeks ago that he was doing updates, and rebooted, maybe this is the same, and its a more signifigant update)

Another issue that would have accored, is a power outage at Layer tech in which case, Vult will get us up and running as soon as he can (which im sure he would anyway) My guess it is currently a combination of hardware/ software error caused by the small server updates a week or so ago that vult did, and he will figure out the issue shortly. The reason for me beleiving this is because if it was stricktly hardware, the test server would be affected as well, and it isnt.

Now, some advice to think over whilst you wait for EO to come back online:

Need gold?: Gold, the blood of EO, either you have more than you can use, or more likely have a great need for it. Now, let me specisfy, most people WANT gold, just to have, these are the people I won't really help, because they dont need it. But some of those do need gold for 1 reason for another, now i know weather you want it or need it, you'll use this way to make gold, so oh well. Fastest way i found to make gold, is if you see a monster, kill it, and take what it has to offer. If its useless, give it away to someone less fortunate (AKA: give a cava to a new player), just to spread a little love. But once you do this, you'll get things that people do want, or at least the witch would want. Don't get me wrong, some things are 100% useless right now (Monster flesh, Aqua things, Metal parts, Robot Chains (i wasnt refering to the weapon), flies, Twekus tenticals (Refering to the items droped in the lvl 4 doungen), ect) But doesnt make them not needed, you never know when someone might hold a ligit event that would require the gathering of one of these items, so its better safe than sorry that you didnt pick it up. I personally camp the bonespider so i can sell Dark Endura's for 40k about, and make some money, other things you can do is camp Tenbas and gather bags, and exp (Train and get money at once? Who woulda thunk it?) Those are just some tips. For lower levels, stick to trying to gather small items you can get and craft large items that people would buy (Royal potions, ice sword, ect).
This is a guide for the fastest way to make money, as far as items that i used for examples, their is no real signifigant profit to be made with them.

I want a Scav!: Do not buy a scav right now. Not unless someone is selling for 200-250k. It is basic economics, they will sell for whatever people are buying for: AKA: No one buy for 350-400k, and they wont sell for that high. Or of course gather the items, get a Ancient Wraith Key from the quest, and kill Ancient Wraiths. (About as much HP as a king, and does 20-99 damg rapidly) Oh, and they are invisible, so good luck with that. Your best bet is to wait for the buyers to get too fed of with waiting to sell for 400k, they will drop their price. little bit at a time. And Scav isnt all that great, it's looks are so-so, and its atk is only 2-2, so its a little better, but not worth the 390k increase from a normal bow. So thats a little advice, take it or leave it.

What do i do when EO is down?: Go on test.endless-online.com and play EO there if you are so addicted, just change your EOclient IP to test.endless-online.com or download a test client (Do not install to your Endless folder and erase your main server one, make another folder inside your endless folder, and install there) <-- This way, you have both servers on your computer, and dont need to do any of that switching hassle.

I'm walled!!!!: If you're walled, its for good reason, you'll get out when an admin feels like releasing you. You have been told not to speed, it is agains EO's ToS, so i have no sympathy for you. You'll be released, and lets hope you learned your lesson. Im sure many of people have told you not to speed, and you maybe (not everyone) laughed at them, and just speed off. Feel silly now? Just deserts as its called. The harder the punishment, the more than likely it will sink into your heads, so deal with it, serve your time, and learn your lesson, and dont spam global.

Spammers: If someone wil the name "WWWWWW" walks up to you, put them on ignore right away, dont wait for them to spam. And, if someone comes up to the area where you are, sits down, and does nothing, and you start DCing, put the person on ignore, and turn off your PMs. This should help, just be wary of global, it is safe sometimes, so dont give up on it entirely.

That is all the info i have for you today, as always I'm looking for Reporters, please contact me ingame, or email me at Linkfan_of_eo@yahoo.com with your report, or request to be a reporter. :)

Welcome!

2008-01-14T18:50:00.000-05:00

Hello, I am Linkfan, and welcome to Link's Word. A new blog to try and spread a little word and opinion about Endless Online.

First order of business:

EO is Down?: Well, it is true, the Endless online Server is down currently, on the main server. I am unsure if it is on test ( UPDATE: It is confirmed that test is working. ). Most people are sharing rumors that EO is currently being wiped. I would have to disagree with this, As much as I would LOVE to see EO wiped at this point, it's just not whats going on. Chances are it is a problem with Layer Tech, or maybe some small updates (Hopefully to remove spamming).

Admins stoped caring?: No, this is completly false, if Vult stoped caring, he would stop spending the money to keep Endless Online up and running. Each admin has a life outside of EO, and we need to respect that., I see alot of people saying things like "EO nerds to get lives", which Admins have, but i notice the SAME people are the first to say that Admin's stoped caring, and need to play more. These are the people i try my best to educate or avoid, which is impossible 85% of the time. Each admin has a life, and let them live it, sure EO was made when the admins had more time on their hands, but keep in mind this was half a decade ago, and times change, and they have other things to tend to right now. Sakurakur is busy with collage, so is Laine. Vult, Arvid, Rexor, and Teror are busy working on another game (details not known yet). Aegnie plays, just plays on ALTS, she stated this a while ago on the EO forums, she plays on alts to help get a better feel for EO, and the things Vult needs to fix. Mizzy? I thought she quit being an admin, thats what it says on her website, so thats what i go by.

Oh noes, HSing?!: I have no clue why the term Hyper speeder exists. The term Speeder was used, then Super Speeder, and now Hyper speeder? THis doesnt make sence, they are SPEEDERS, no special words added. They can all go the same speed as every, just finding new ways to do so, so dont call it by any special names, making it seem new, when its not.

Oh noes (part 2), DCers?!: Now this is easy, you simply check your log files for their name, and put it on your ignore on your IGNORE WORD FILE found in your config of your endless online folder. This way you can type in those overly long names, by copy and paste from your log files. Sure its an inconvinience, but it is just something we need to live with until DCIng is fixed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That is all i have for you today, please stay tuned for more of Link's word as i come out with them. :)

ALSO: Im looking for reporters to travel between EO main server, and the EO Test server. So special training required, just if you find news, Email it to me, or tell me in the game (user is Linkfan) And my email is, Linkfan_of_eo@yahoo.com. All reporters will be credited for the stories the tell me (once proven correct). Thank you :)
