»War of Emperium: Rawr
Tuesday, October 23, 2012
After 1000 years of cautious relations, Rune-Midgarts Kingdom and Republic of Schwartzvald signed a mighty friendship treaty. Noticing the weakening of the castles, the monster armies marched and taken control of the castles in all major towns causing a real threat to the Kingdom. "The castles and the treasures on them are properties for those who deserve them. And whoever control the castles with the legendary Emperium stone, will be considered the kingdom Knights of honor."
-King Tristan III
Blah, blah, blah... Let the WoE begin! But wait, before we continue to that part, I would to say first that TalonRO (the server I am playing) has 2 types of WoE:
The regular WoE is a bit different on TalonRO. Being a server where MVP Cards are widely available, WoE can get difficult for newer players. That's why apart from regular WoE we also provide a Vanilla WoE. Vanilla WoE has several restrictions, the most important ones being that there are no MVP Cards, Lord Kaho's Horns, Super Quest Items and other strong customs allowed. The same restriction goes for certain healing items such as Condensed White Potions, Meat and Grape Juice. For a full list of restrictions, see the table below.
Of course there is also non-restricted WoE available for those who prefer the fast paced action that TalonRO offers.
For both regular WoE cases, the duration is 1 hour instead of 2 hours to ensure more action. In the future this may change again and more castles may open if the population allows it.

That's the Warsong Guild defending the Payon Castle (Sacred Altar, someone correct me if I'm wrong). I just managed to take a peek then I died. The character I play is a Gypsy (Cordella). My role is to scream, dance Please Don't Forget Me (PDFM), Bragi (yes, I can do the Poem of Bragi if I am linked so don't argue with me), doing some Tarots on Paladin and others (I was given the order to Tarot the Paladins first before the others) and maybe Arrow Vulcan others.
I'm kinda brave at times since I go all the way inside the castle and wait for everyone inside, makes me laugh at times too and I gotta love the speed potions. It's the only reason I can make it inside and Mastela. Let's not forget those yummy fruits.

Going all the way up with the help of Speed Potions. YAY!

If I remember properly, the only reason why I was the only one out there near the Emperium was because I had no idea the guys where making the siege a PvP battlegrounds (since the Guild Leader wasn't able to wake up in time for WoE and I think her computer derped on her as well).
Of course I only these shots when I am able to and not busy defending my life. I'll try to record a video of this. I feel ashamed I wasn't able to take a video where we wiped out a guild at the field. It looked sooo awesome. So instead, all I got are these little shots we're the commanding officer is giving orders and we're on a 5-10 second stop. I'll try to make take better pictures and probably some videos as well.

This is us here getting ready. A few seconds before the start of WoE.

Geffen Castle siege.

Next is the Emperium. We're getting our battle orders here for 5-10 seconds.

This here is Payon Castle. Yes, yes, no action, pure standing.

A quick peek inside the Emperium Room. We didn't expect to steal the castle just yet but its good to know we can still enter the castle. By the way, that's Zero Gravity over there.

Here we are, owning a castle for a few seconds before someone broke it.

Then here we are running up to the castle. Field Battle later, must meet up as commanded by the leader.
And of course we end it with a:

Lesson time!
I'm a little new to WoE so I have no idea on what I should do and I should have, so if there is any pro gypsy that can help me out, I'll be very much happy to accept the offer.
