    :( so we have to be dependent on our leader to be there for every squad or is this just a 1 time thing and the npc stays for good?

    You'll need to have your faction leader talk to the the Faction Manager inside your base. They'll need to pick up the quest "The Guardian Trials". Once they do that, the Teleporter will spawn right next to the Faction Monolith in the middle of the base.

    Does that perm spawn it or must it kept being respawned?

    Faction members who are ranked marshal or higher should be able to do this as well. The NPC should stick around until the resets on Wednesday.

    Please keep in mind that only marshals or higher can start the events, so you'll need someone of at least that rank for each trial.

    Thats not really fair in my opinion, having to be required to get an officer to join us!! kinda ruins the whole point in being able to farm for recasting if we cant open with a making of any squad >.<

    558, 632 .. Offers a Errand Quest Last about 6+ minutes. As for rewards I'd say about a little less then half the amount of experience you would get from Crazy Stone + 3 Fantasy Fruits.

    So pk in SP is not completely off limits like it was in the past? I mean, white names can still pk in there without getting banned?

    Ok so I have a theory. I think GT stands for Guardian Trials and it lights up when that person is in a GT instance (possibly only if they're in instance with you).

    Time out, are you saying we will need a marshal or higher to take on the quest chains or we can't do them, or to simply start the quest mob every week?

    * Woah.. ok A little confused here. Does this mean that i'm still vunerable to PVP in the SP?I help newbies get past the mobs, but I don't PK unless im doing TW. This is a PVE server. I'm glad that the newbies will be safe. But there will be other questers- e.g. Silverfrost.
    Raise Level or fix SP for PVE servers so that you can only kill if you have PVP enabled on your character :/

    If I reboot it it'll make strange sounds again... My pc runs a 24-hour service so my hardware doesn't have to deal with the power-burst when you switch the pc on... It can't handle much more of those... But thanks for the patches... I'm gonna try if they'll work... b:thanks

    no offense but you **** this game up.
    rank 8 is going to replace tt99 and nirvana and rank 9 is the ultimate endgame.
    no matter if someone was able to farm the coins for rank 9, someone else paid for it
    because you cant get rank without the reputation from boutique and
    the other stuff you need for it.
    this means that pwi at lvl 100 going to be a pay to play game, because you cant do
    anything without the right gear, and right gear means rank 8 or 9.
    stronger gear means that you going to make the bosses stronger too,
    which means that people without rank gear will not survive them.
    this happend already to twilight tempel.

    you are 100 now, go buy your rank or be useless b:angry

    on one site thats a good thing on the other site its a bad thing.
    people will finally start doing normal fc again but you punish
    all other people who never did dragoon fc and fall behind in leveling up.




    DO ME A FAVOUR AND MAKE THE MATERIALS AT Mysterious Merchant CHEAPER,
    so that twilight tempel 99 gear is in a better relation to rank 8.
    rank 8 is way more powerful so make twilight gold gear cheaper....

    1200 Uncannies and 300 Raptures for R9 recast x 4 just for +10 Attack level AND you lose your set bonus of R9....

    On a dead server like Archosaur there isn't even existing 4800 Uncannies and 1200 Raptures to make this even possible.

    You guys sure know how to make the expansions stupid as hell and not even worth it.

    The only thing people are enjoying is the new punching bag in 1k for all the stupid *bleep* trying to beat the top score...

    Recasting was a cool idea but dam so unreachable. And what the hell is this new area on the map... Seriously?

    Oh don't get me started about your pseudo "re-balancing" of Assassins.
    Winning b:pleased
