Top 3 Ragnarok Moments



Waukster Online, a blog that gives you an inside scoop in Ragnarok Online 2, is giving away rare Ragnarok merchandise like Goblin Figurines and Merchant Saving Boxes! To enter, you just have to write your top 3 Ragnarok moments and this is my entry.

-------------------

It's been a while since I last posted anything here in my blog... How I miss blogging, though I have already compiled my pictures just awaiting to be uploaded and blogged here, I still don't have the time to do so... I'm gonna be having my internship this coming days... Ragnarok projects (leveling characters). Sleep. And such crap... Anyway...

Here's my TOP 3 Ragnarok Moments

3rd -- Siege

Not much going on here just some suspense of casting Extrimity Fist on everyone hoping that they'll die... Damn, I hate those devi cards + gr cards!!

My first siege was December last year with Zero Gravity under Charles the Professor.
It was fun since I am usually the last High Wizard standing.
The salary was 1M back them but it was good considering the economy and the size of the guild.
There was a time when we occupied 3 agits in Payon at the same time.
It was because of the effort of everyone.

Then I stopped "sieging" because I ran out of money to load my account with.
And when I was back online I was kicked out of the guild (T_T)

Then around July 2007 my brother out of boredom joined the siege of GH League.
My brother said, "Kuye Jex pasali naman, makiki gulo lang!" He used the Stalker with Plagiarized SG and wreaked havoc and conquered and agit.

Come next siege my brother invited me, and I used my champion protecting Emperium from breakers.
"Sarap EF nung mga Kalabaw! /heh"

1st - My Most Memorable Ragnarok Moment

Winning Wauk's RO2 Wallpaper Contest

It's not actually a in game moment but hey it's memorable..

A week before the contest I was staring at the login screen and said to myself, "It's been years since Level-Up changed this login screen..."
And they were all girls... ...aimed for the male gamer...
How about the female gamer?
So I compiled male RO transcendent characters and new jobs and edited it and made a collage out of it just like the login screen today where there is a central character (girl WS) and surrounded by other girl characters making a sentai formation (Power Ranger formation) Placed them according to their face direction and symmetry. That is why the Gunslinger is in the middle even though it is a little bit weak character.

Then that Friday afternoon while out professor was out of the class I started making it.
I also used my stock photo of a cloudscape sunset as background and inverted it because I couldn't find the right solid color or gradient color background for it.

Then I occurred to me that that day was the deadline for Wauk's RO2 wallpaper contest so I added the RO2 logo and the tag line "We are ready for the Gate of the World" even though it's out of the original tag line of "The Gate of the World will open soon..."

So that's it... submitted it around 10 in the evening.
And the following morning I was eaggerly anticipating the announcement. There was none.
Come afternoon... Still there was none...
Come evening... before going to bed, I usually check my email and Wauk's blog for RO updates..
Then there it was the announcement of the winner of the Wallpaper Contest. Opened it.
Then I saw the 2nd placer and looked closely to his submission and said to my self... "Buti pa siya may ganyan... T_T"
And I scrolled down (skipping 1st place)... And I was awestruck!
"Putcha akin yan ah!!"
Then...
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
"Nanalo ako!!"
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
I really shouted even though it's passed 11pm. And I think the neighbors too heard me! Wahaha!!
All my sleepiness dissipated.
I called my brother to let him see. (So that I may also wake from the nightmare if it was unreal) And he said, "Akalain mo yung nanalo ka pa! Hahaa! Asteg!"

Then come the week later, after Wauks emailed me to get the prize, I went to Level Up Games to pick it up.

I even asked Wauks to sign an autograph together with GM Cassiel.
On a funny note, I recalled GM Cassiel saying something like:
"Baka mamaya ibenta ni Francis tong box kc may autograph ko!" hehe'
I guess I would have said the same thing if a complete stranger came up to me and ask for my autograph. Hahaha

Well, that's it... It's been 4 years of unforgettable Ragnarok Online memories for me since the day my friend handed me an installer of the game.

Can't wait for Ragnarok Online 2 to come...
