Emerald Arrows and Dopplegangers!
As part of a G9 quest, Soma was given an Emerald Arrow from Castanea, the elf cheiftain. We thought it was an RP dungeon, but it turns out it wasn't, so when he went in alone ... well he couldn't get past the Sand Mimics in the first room alone, which says a lot. Team up!
The room after the mimics had angry bugs. Emerald Scarabs to be exact. My birthstone is Emerald!
With the whole Emerald theme, I was expecting other Emerald monsters. Nah, nothing Emerald except those scarabs. Bronze Armored Hounds and White Pythons.
Damn mobby rooms.
Don't forget the weird heads.
I deserved this for rushing in with a Windmill XD
Soma asked me to take him to Tir Chonaill so he can check the shop for a white robe. And what do you know ... Malcolm was nice to us!
Then we went to Taillteann so I could cash in on the quest.
Later we did it again with Herro for Soma. Nothing new to report except it was faster with 3 people. Since the 4th didn't last. Poor Woulfe.
And new clothes for Soma. They are now a dynamic duo! (except Soma is really attached to his white robe... since he like just got it & all)
I found my own emo robe that someone left on the ground.
Soma likes it and asked me to keep it for a while, since it matches with his white. Fine ... heh.
And then we decided it's time to earn some serious EXP. How? Shadow Missions, of course. But we hear there's a really special one at Tara. Let's try that one.
The monsters are normal shadow archers and fatty fighter things. And some Bone things. Darn archers!
A miniboss Shadow Ghost.
With heavy stander (melee passive defense), of course. You're lucky Final Hit keeps going, aren't you?
And then .... what the
A doppelganger!
Fu--- is right! Lots of 'em!
You can only hit the "Boss" for 1 damage unless you kill his minion dopps.
The boss has some mad alchemy skills.
Yes, yes, taunt it now that it's dead.
Another thing to know: the Boss does not get knocked back. By anything.
We did it again with Soma as leader. This time, it had a bow. So it does sort of copy your style, but it does tend to like using high-rank alchemy on you. Also, it can make multiple clones and even rechange its own shape.
After it dopp'd me, I took off my emo robe so that everyone could tell me apart from it). Then later on, it made more minions without the robe. Oh yeah, you can also accidentally target your own party at this part, to add to the confusion! (To tell who's who, simply press Alt and see which one has a combat power ranking).
I only took one pic here because my comp was dying of lag. Darn Tara for being so huge.
