Hey guys, here is a Philippine update from the 22nd that I totally keep meaning to post but run out of time for uploading the images.

Carnival armor is probably one of the sweetest armors out there (in my opinion), and it’s nice to see it available in a server.

This also gets the Philippines even closer to the content cap – and I bet they can expect skill trees very soon! When the Philippines obtain Skill Trees.

Random note before we get started: PH still needs to update their player of the month.

Here are the updates:



Brave the New World: Silver Land Continent!

NEW DUNGEON: Ruins of the Silver Knights

True test comes to the Grand Chase when they reach the Ruins of the Silver Knights, where the entire order of warriors was wiped out. Suddenly, a low groaning noise was heard from a distance. Soon, the noise was joined by more groaning, until the entire place was filled with the groans…of undead!

The Grand Chase was surrounded, but they were not about to give up without a fight. A vicious battle ensued between our heroes and the undead. Before the final blow was struck by the Grand Chase team, a surge of energy erupted from the middle of the undead army! A figure emerged from the blast…the Dark Fairy Queen, the being responsible for the reanimation of the Silver Knights’ honored dead!

As the Dark Fairy Queen gathered evil energies in a final strike against the heroes, a figure appeared from the shadows, quick as lightning, coming in between the Grand Chase and their adversary and assuming a powerful-looking fighting stance.

It was a boy, dressed in martial arts attire. Without turning to the Grand Chase, he speaks only these words: “Help me free my Silver Knights brothers from this undead curse…or all is lost!


HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER: Jin the Fighter!

If there’s one thing Jin likes, it’s fighting. If there are two things Jin likes, it’s fighting, and Amy.

You see, Jin came from the Silver Land, home to the legendary Silver Knights. As a member of this elite group of warriors, Jin has honed his mind and body into a perfect fighting machine. He needs no weapon but his fists, arms, and feet. But all his training did not prepare him the night he first saw the Dancer come up onstage and do what she does best…

Jin fell head over heels in love! Who is this beautiful Dancer, with moves as graceful as any martial art, and a smile that inspired the hearts of these battle-hardened warriors?

From that day on, Jin was smitten. He had to know who this beauty is, and he did all he can to ask her out. But things never come easy, especially for a Silver Knight.

When the dark forces spread its evil across the Xenian continent, the Silver Knights were almost destroyed, and those remaining were scattered, fighting evil wherever they can. Jin was devastated, but the circumstance only served to make him more focused. He must find Luther, the leader of the ruined Silver Knights, so that they can rise to glory together once again.

When he heard of the Grand Chase is in search of the Dark Queen, he saw it as an opportunity to fulfill his mission. And so, Jin offered his might and his unmatched fighting skills to the Grand Chase team.

Oh, and Amy was a member too! It was like hitting 2 birds with 1 stone!

Jin is the melee-specialist for the Grand Chase team. He shines in close combat like no other member of Grand Chase. Hold down the X key to charge his special ability called “Burning”. His attacks become stronger, and he can use all new skills to devastate his opponents. The battlefield will be on fire with the power of Jin the Fighter!

The Grand Chase adds another powerhouse to their ranks. Join Jin and the rest of the Grand Chase team as they use their combined power to rid the world of evil once and for all!

Jin will be released (WTF?), the burning ardent boy from the land of Silver will arrive to shock everyone with his superb fighting skills (Again, somewhat translating from the Thai description of him) I wonder how this will work out, since I think that Jin has a dialogue regarding about Amy, so if Amy isn’t released yet, what would happen ?

Here’s the event going on for Jin’s 4th:

Jin's 4th Job Event

Translation when I get time. (When do I ever have time?)

Random:

All images will now include a good sized “grandchase.info” watermark, since stealing images seems to be a fortitude…

If you still wish to use some of the images for signatures, you can drop me a mail @ Cow@cowxp.com requesting the image, where I should get back to you in a couple of days.

If you’re a webmaster wishing to use the image for your update, I’ll pass the unwatermarked image, but I expect a link back to the blog.

Thanks,

Cow
