Ever killed a card boss? Ever manufactured Old Heavens Tear gear? Well here is the journey of one tigers ambition to summon the ultimate card boss; HammerFall.

What does it take to summon HammerFall? Well let me tell you.

It takes 2 booklets of signatures.
Each book need 8 signatures.
Thats 16 signatures total.

To summon a single cardboss you need 16 mystical tome fragments.
How many frags to summon all of them?
256 frags to be exact.

These cardbosses come from all 79+ instances including one TT instance and Lunarglade. Now your thinking oh this is easy, but there is a catch, your instances must be unwined. ooo fun stuffs.

People have been collecting these signatures for some time now. In the hopes to get some uber item from OHT.

So after around 2 months of farming these bosses, Throck my loyal and slightly stubborn husband collects all 16 signatures after hours and hours of work. We find ourselves on Pierced Heart Lake standing next to the only non-instance summonbot.

Our Team:
Throck, 101 Barb
ArchAngel, 100 Cleric
Buttworm, 97 Archer
BaldwinBoy, 101 Blademaster
Tanthalus, 97 Blademaster
Mandey, 96 Cleric

Like I usually do, I do a bit of research as we fly over there. and found out this:

HammerFall:
Life: 3,330,153
Physical Attack 9641 - 11569
Magic Attack 4069 - 4883
Physical Defence 2319
Magic Defense 1767

So we set up Regeneration Aura (Blue Bubble most commonly known as) And let Throck summon this ultimate card boss.
What we didnt expect is what showed up afterwards. Now your thinking I bet with attacks like 11,5k hits gonna be a huge **** boss right? Something along the lines of world bosses like HarpyLady and Cenimnator. Well this is what showed up:

Isnt he cute? I could put him in my pocket!
Though the life points where dead on, the attacks barely hit Throck for much damage at all, was slightly disappointing, and though his dmg increased slightly over time, was nothing to big at all.

    So for the next few minutes around 5 or so we attack him.

    After he dies everyone gets congratulated, its been a long journey thru these crazy cardbosses. Now lets go open the chest of OHT treasures. I sit next to Throck in anticpation as he teles back to arch and runs for OHT entrance npc.
    Finially! he is there and talking to the elder, on my screen I have open all the awsome options that could befall us, and Throck says I hope I get a magic ring for you. I am like AWW 2 months of work is about what him, baldwinboy and myself spent on my purple pony! Was so sweet! So he finially hits accept and you know what it doesnt let you choose which reward you get and like normal OHT gear you dont get set attributes either. Curious as to what we got? well it wasnt a ring sadly.

    As you can see its not really good either. lol
    Slightly dissappointed Throck told me not to fret, he can decomp it for Purfied Perfect Stones which is a Warsoul ingredient. I looked it up and it takes 18 Purfied Stones to make 1 warsoul ingredient. LOL Talk about slightly ridiculous drawn out way to get there!

    Anyways after 2 months of unwined instances and hundreds of tome fragments and tons of inventory space taken by signatures, I doubt Throck will ever stop doing card bosses, who knows maybe next time the reward will match the work involved.

    Special Thanks to all the squads that helped Throck get to those instances and to put up with being unwined.
    We are Calamity, and we are the leading faction in obtaining and completing even the longest and most difficult of tasks.

    Congrats, and yeah sorry about the reward. Though it appears it's G13, so had it actually been a useful item it would refine well.

    I tried to concentrate on reading about your long struggle for that reward, but the boss name conjured metal songs in my head. Am I the only one who saw "Hammerfall" and automatically had "Any Means Necessary" pop into a continuous loop in my brain? b:embarrass

    Grats on a job well done, but you get my condolences for such a crappy reward.

    Yah trust me I feel your pain as I had finished this off myself about a month ago or so and here is what I got for my trouble (being worn by someone else I just gave damn thing to). If u recall they had a pack that 1 of the rewards was a card hero token which is the reward for finishing this damn quest off (just a little fyi for yaz).

    Im slightly discouraged at finishing this card boss thingie.....

    Perhaps I should just sell the mats from the bosses and put it in savings, to buy the best luck tokens and get the card token myself to get something nice b:surrender

    You can also just farm a green Lunar Armor/Ornament/Weapon part, decompose it, then use 2 tome fragments and voila you got the gold chrono item/oht of YOUR choice.
    Originally written by Satchiko to me regarding old spice commercial :
    Hello Perfect World. Look at your cleric, now back to me, now back to your cleric, now back to me. Sadly it isn't me. But if you stopped being a noob and started wearing sunglasses you could act like you're me. Look down, back up, where are you? You're on Dreamweaver with the cleric your cleric could be like. What's in your hand, back at me. It's an inventory filled with the gear you want. Look again, the gear is now diamonds. Anything is possible with sunglasses. I'm flying on starter wings.

    Uh, yeah, that, or just make stuff with the material from bosses and ignore the end result which is, for the moment, poo.

    You can also trade in the card hero token to get a number of wraith's spirits/eyes/bones (Helm of Holy Punishment/Heavenrage Boots, Shadowless Illusion). I have not been able to find how much of these wraith items you get for 1 token tho. Does anyone know?

    The 2x event would certainly help in getting drops for the UF/VOTS items to compliment the CHT route, but going to this length to get that few spirits would be quite a waste if for only that reason. I guess it may be worth it in the bigger picture if you, as a veno (presuming you are one), solo'd all the bosses you could and hogged all the materials on the way to that.

    However, I would say it would be a better investment to just do your RB's, buy up frags, solo the bosses, sell the materials for a hefty coin (or maybe, like the last post of mine, try your luck making stuff and selling that like -channeling rings), and just save up for a Helm of Holy Punishment that some lucky bastid got from anni packs.

    kill all 16 card bosses, plus the final one... u get a card hero token...

    What to do with it? trade for a useless lvl 100 random equip or 500 wraith itens.

    500 wraith itens = u have to kill all the card bosses + final boss 37 times to get enough wraith stuuf to get heavenrage boots or holy Helm....

    U can prob get both easier by farming TT, selling ur stuff and buying from someone who got them from packs. Unless u like to do FB unwineds, lunar runs, delta runs... and have no life at all

    I found a Warsoul of Heaven (Arcane Headgear) +4 w/ 2 immaculate Citrines for 30m. I refined it to +5 and here's the current stats:

    Lv.13
    HP +207
    MP +400
    Durability: 310
    Requisite Lvl: 70
    R. Strength: 24
    R. Mag: 89
    Reduce Pdmg: +3%
    Channeling -3%
    Magic +5

    I currently have 697 Wraith's Spirits, and I'm not going out of my way to get the best Ence's Scar. I'll get some WS during each Unicorn Forest Daily. I'd rather invest in the above. ^^

    Thanks for the info on the card bosses. I did start collecting their signatures, but thanks to you I'll stop going out of my way.
