Hello everyone once again, one more time [...you know my speech here ;D]

Passed quite some time since Reader Spot’s last edition, and I’m know that I’m late once again, posting at Monday. But there’s just something getting me on the way, and I know you won’t accept this as excuse x]

Anyway, going directly to the point. This week (or last) I received one E-mail and… a PM on BR Forum lol. Costs anything to send me at the E-MAIL!? Baka ne u-u

Well, okay. The E-mail was from Haseo Kiryu, this time he sent a Screenshot took while playing. And from RedRogue (old RedCreeesse) I received a video. I’ll talk about them now.

Oh and, in this edition and some others, the authors (Cow, Kowiz, Firest and Hibiki) will answer some questions about theirselves for you, Reader, know a bit more about ourselves. So, be sure to check up!

This time, a Screenshot that’s representing Brazil Grand Chase at its laggy moment, when a dungeon starts, but people aren’t on the map yet. Look at the result!

It happens when you’re in a dungeon with more than one player.

Red Rogue

Why did you sent me a PM!? Now the forum is laggy, like ever! –”

Finally, I can read…

I don’t know if this happens at NAGC, but here does. Here are some incredibly huge amount of Archers spamming Fire Arrow, Toxic Arrow, the fatal one, and MP buff. Almost every PvP, there is a Archer, and yet, some times Mage too. And there are too the non-used jobs, like Hunter or Dragon Knight (Ours got extremely nerfed)

So, it has ocurred a PvP, where only forgot jobs could be used. I’ll now show the video!

Okay, on this edition I prepared 5 answers for the authors, and we answered them which our opinion. Let’s start!

1- You have any priorities right after entering on your PC? If yes, what?

Cow: First of all I check Grandchase.info comments to see what people are saying. After that I check my e-mail. Depending on the circumstances I might log into Grand Chase to get myself set up for attendance or events. Usually after I log into Youtube and check out recent comments and message. Usually through these comments and what not I get an idea if there is any news to post for a specific server, in which case I go searching for the appropriate images and context of it, and then transfer them into blog posts. Afterwards I may get involved into some self-study, or go on to see what I can find to do.
Kowiz: No.
Firest: It depends on the day. If it is monday, then I check the KGC site for update notices. If its wednesday, I’ll go play BGC. Other than that, nothing.
Hibiki: Lol, firstly I check on the bGC forums, Grandchase.info for any news, and then I log on into MSN to chat with my friends, specially one person in special <3 if she’s not online, I go play Grand Chase a bit. Sometimes, I spend some time reading online Mangas.

2- Do you play Grand Chase often? Which server?

Cow: I use to play pretty often, but now it’s a pretty small fraction of my time. Generally when I get on it’s for events. I do enjoy logging in and seeing all the unique things people put in the friend request messages, so if you’re ever bored and want to get my attention go for it. Right now my most played server is probably NA.
Kowiz: No, kgc.
Firest: Kinda often. BGC and KGC mostly.
Hibiki: bGC. Some days I play for 1 hour, other days I play like 10 hours. Its that since when I started playing, but January 2007 I quitted for a month, then came back. [I just edited!]

3- Since when do you play Grand Chase?

Cow: I’ve been playing since SEA’s release in 2007. I enjoyed it a lot there and was later introduced to NA’s pre-release by a few friends. We signed up on the forums and browsed around until it’s official release.
Kowiz: NAGC’s Beta.
Firest: Since september 22th 2006.
Hibiki: I play Grand Chase since the spearman’s releasement at bGC. Since June, 2006, I don’t know exactly the day… and my account is a shame on level! No 50+ character! =P

4- What did you think about Season 3?

Cow: I think Season 3 is a pleasant and expected release for a game like Grand Chase. After actually playing in it I believe it eases up on the grinding feeling of the game and applies it to become more fun and interactive. I do believe the card system was a good benefit, as were the sockets, they were beyond my favorite part. I believe when we get this feature on our home servers we’ll be doing a lot of farming for the “perfect stat” socket / cards.
Kowiz: Socket and slot system are good.
Firest: I think it is a big improvement from Season 2. I’m glad people who dont like PVP that much will be able to actually level up. Also, I loved the monster cards.
Hibiki: Well, its like… a Season 2 with a greater looking, and dungeons giving more rewards. I don’t know if there is any PvP change, except for the number font. The dungeons are giving better rewards, and more EXP and GP, this I didn’t like. I don’t like to Level Up! (Myself, for other people might be good) but the loading ends faster, this is surely a good thing! And looks like this socket system will unbalance even more in bGC, I’m not sure yet e_e

5- What are you expecting for GC’s future?

Cow: I’m expecting a lot more jobs and characters of course, and perhaps an even newer continent over one we have. Of course there will be more cards relating to each dungeon, but perhaps an even larger amount of cards. When are we going to get a necromancer / summoner type of class anyway? I guess Mari’s cannon summons are one step closer.
Kowiz: Cakes that aren’t a lie.
Firest: More jobs and characters. For me, that is the most exciting thing about Grand Chase. Also, I’m looking forward for another GWC.
Hibiki: There will be a time where Grand Chase has enough, and the fun of it will be killed. I can’t even imagine 70 jobs in only one game, Skill Trees will keep coming and leaving the jobs overpowered… I don’t know what’ll happen with Grand Chase in the future, but looks like it won’t be that entertaining like on Season 1 anymore. (And there are only bad educated brazilians! Some rare exceptions, of course.) And, I’m not expecting for being happy with new characters, just new jobs.

Okay, that’s it for the 8th Reader Spot! And oh yeah, you may also make your questions sending yours to the e-mail below.

Thanks for reading,

Grand Chase North America has released the Thanatos and Krakko pet, but oddly enough, gave them some really goofy names.

First of which is Krakko, whose new name is “Krustaccio”. Is that some kind of Butler thing?

Next, is Thanny Boy. I know I’ve heard this somewhere, so if someone could leave me a comment letting me know where I heard it that’d be great.

Did we mention Mari is coming too?:

Here are the latest patch notes from NA (If any of the Game Masters from NA are reading this, when you click for the March 16th patch notes in the notice, you get taken to March 11ths):

“[General]

* Krustaccio and Thanny Boy pets have been added to the game!
o Both pets are created from their respective Pet Creation Manual.
o Pet Creation Manuals are only found in certain Champion Mode dungeons, and only rarely.
o Combine an assortment of Chaos Orbs and Precious Pearls from that continent to make the pet.
o Precious Pearls drop from their respective continents in Champion Mode, 1 from each boss with a small chance from each mob.
* A special “Little Terrors” emblem will appear on Xenia and Silver Land to commemorate the release of 2 new boss pets until March 30th.
o See the emblem to get a 20% EXP boost in Silver Land dungeons.
o See the emblem to get a 10% stat boost in Xenia dungeons.
* The final dungeon on Xenia Continent has opened, the Fortress of Ascension!
o Use the 5 Orbs from the Temple of Cuatal, the Wyrm’s Maw, the Altar of Judgment, the Temple of Destruction, and the Forest of Life in your battle against Thanatos!

[Item]

[Adjustments]

* Special orbs will now fall from five Xenia dungeons that are inhabited by deities.
o Use these orbs to help in your fight against Thanatos in the Fortress of Ascention!
o The Orb of Cycles can be found in the Temple of Cuatal.
o The Orb of Hell Fire can be found in the Wyrm’s Maw.

o The Orb of Destruction can be found in the Temple of Destruction.

Apologies for any downtime you may experience, contacting customer support on my webhost now.

In celebration of the day of my birth (I’m 20 today), Grandchase.info will be hosting it’s first contest. The contest will end on March 30th if more than 7 entries are submitted. If not, then the contest will end on April 6th.

The contest is simple, or maybe not so simple. Depends on how you look at it and what methods you apply.

You must create a Grand Chase Trailer, which applies to your version, and show off why Grand Chase is so fun to play, and why others should play it!

In order to create this trailer you should make a video (anywhere from 1 minute to 4 minutes in length) showing off the game and making it look better than it really is. (That was a joke) You may include pictures, music, video footage, and anything else you believe will make the video more attractive to the viewer, and show the game off. Upload this video to Youtube.com for the best results.

The entries will be judged on how well they did their video, how well they showed off all the content available to them, how well the video is edited, and how much effort they put into it. Also other random factors go into the judging. Me and two others will be judging all entries which should be posted in my thread on the forums, or in response to this video, or in my Youtube channel comments.

The winning videos will have these prizes:

1st Place: Choice between access to a KGC Account* (No characters or items, yours to use, you pick your own name, and you can add both of my accounts) or 10$ USD prize through Paypal. Your video will be featured on a post on Grandchase.info and your name mentioned for the award.

2nd Place: The prize that first place did not choose, and your video will also be featured on a post on Grandchase.info and your name mentioned for the award.

If more than 10 entries:

3rd Place: 5$ USD Prize through Paypal, and your video will also be featured on Grandchase.info.

Please create your trailer, upload it to Youtube, and then post it HERE, or in my Youtube channel, or in comments to this post. My Youtube channel is CowxDD. We will not discriminate on lack of content (PH, and TH), so just show the best your version has to offer!

Please leave feedback for the contest in this post.

Thank you for your support,

Cow

P.S. – I don’t feel any older
