I know I'll miss the old Zos Shivros Channel farm and Shadow Form :(.

New guild tag for [KrZy]

So on March 20 2010, I found someone who makes Asian guild tags for 25K. I had 洋子matsumoto turn Krazy Guild With Krazy People [KrZy] into Krazy Guild With Krazy People [K尺乙了]. The bad thing is... I had to kick everyone from the guild to invite them back again and I had to leave from the alliance as well.

Now I just have to wait for the alliance leader Junk Master to log on :P

Ending Krazy Kat's Adventures? Maybe?

If anyone is still following me after these long months without posting an entry, I will probably be ending Krazy Kat's Adventures since I am don't have the time to update my blog.

However, this doesn't mean I won't post at all... just don't expect anything :P

Changed all my passwords today

Because I'm paranoid, I changed all my passwords today to EVERY website I use.

Also, it seems like there are even more hackings on Guild Wars. Some people think it's related to PlayNC.

BREAKING NEWS UPDATE! GW HACKINGS GALORE

BREAKING NEWS UPDATE!

Kiss of the Divine (dei's guild leader) got hacked last Sunday. It seems as if she isn't the only one. Many people on Guru are reporting they've been hacked too... most likely through a server side intrusion (aka... not your fault). Even though you have a secure password, anti-virus, no keyloggers, etc... they still manage to make their way in.

People who get hacked have most of their valuable items gone, FoW armor salvaged, armors with superior vigor salvaged, equipment bags gone, balthazar faction traded for z-keys and random weapons and miniatures appearing in the hacked person's inventories.

Anet is clearly showing that your account is vunerable. Until they improve their security, please note that you may get hacked. As usual, take any usual precautions and try to spread your wealth across multiple accounts if you have any.

I would also recommend splitting your stacks of valuable items (ex. Ectos, shards, gems) across multiple characters you don't use so you have more time to intercept the hacker if they do manage to break in. (ex. 8 ectos each on every character... 2 ectos each in the backpack, belt pouch, bag and the last bag)

The Early Kat Years 22: Dragon Moss Farming

Ahh... good old normal mode farming. Back before Hard Mode was around... and loot scaling was introduced, all the drops were yours to keep. Louden Swain from Pantheon of Shadows [dei] told me about this farm which he nicknamed "the ATM machine".

The Dragon Moss farm was one of the best places to farm then, as many Dragon Mosses group together and can be farmed rather quickly, like today's famous Raptor farm. It was possible to make 2K every minute with this farm, but it was limited as you would hit the farming cap VERY QUICK.

At first I used my monk Joyful Jasmine with a Searing Flames build and EoE build. Below are the two videos which I used to learn from Louden. In these videos you can also witness the overpowered Shield of Absorption; when it could be permanently maintained.

Searing Flames Build

EoE BUILD

Later on, I experimented with my elementalist Alexa The Amazing after being inspired by a video on YouTube by SalamandraTheNinja.

I recreated a video of Alexa's early builds that I modified for more damage (Stone Striker caused Searing Flames to deal Earth damage, therefore not triggering Mark of Rodgort). Unfortunately, the amazingness of the drops cannot be witnessed as this was made today :(.

Fighting the biggest mob in Guild Wars (300+ Servants of Murakai)

Yesterday, I went crazy and fought against 300+ enemies... and lived to tell about it.

Forgotten Blog and New Videos

Hey everybody! I've forgotten all about this blog and I'm sorry that I did. I was cleaning my bookmarks today and I was like... hmmm what's this website doing here? Then I remembered it was my blog and haven't typed up a post in over a month. Shame on me.

I uploaded a 600/smite run of Vloxen Excavations earlier today and annotated it. Check it out if you want to see me in action or want to learn the run :D.

The Early Kat Years 22: I Actually Have A Life [Lies]

I joined this guild after Noobs Just Took Halls [WTF] went under. Factions had just come out and a build called Dual-Smite with Air of Enchantment smiters and 2 Shock warriors was beginning to surface. One of the guilds that played this build well was I Actually Have A Life [Lies]. I was charmed by its guild leader Uber Penguin, Chaos Warrior, Telepathic warriors, a strong midline and a fun attitude on vent. Two of the players knew each other in real life, which is probably why they were able to coordinate spikes and already be on the target. The "Shock Chain" was an important strategy to prevent ghosts from capping. Two warriors would chain a ghostly hero with Shock to knock it down and prevent it from using Claim Resource.

When I joined this guild I was almost always playing the midline or one of the monks. It was a fun guild but it also died quickly when the members moved on to other games.

Animated GIFs commission thread and I'm also a deviant!

Soooo today I made an animated gif commission thread on guru. It's turning out to be a big hit so far... It's not even up for 4 hours and there's already 3 people on the waiting list.

I also made a deviantART page (I know it's about time) to upload everything. Check out some of the work I did so far!
