Tried FSC for the first time this week, tried it three or four times before finally finishing it, but every damn time there was this one flame patch in the room with the lost souls that I would somehow always miss. A couple of times it killed me <_<;

Usually I can solo whole

Usually I can solo whole Jelly Palace including Jelly King without dying. But yesterday I played with a friend. Died about 10 times. Below is the chat from what I remember:

me: lol
me: damn
me: how did I die?
me: they dislike me so much
me: spike attack
me: now I am getting serious
me: lol

The most funny thing is I wanted to go to the core without dying to earn the achievement.

Playing in a team of two FSC

Playing in a team of two FSC and finally reaching Vanaduke.
Well we usually are not anywhere near those 1:48, but normally it's not a big problem.

But this time it really felt like some freaky GMs were controlling Slags and Duke. They did perfect tamwork, fire spwaned right where it must not spawn in this very moment, or slags came to lock us in some corner where Vanaduke just tossed us.
Trying to rez... slag attack, dead body is pushed to somewhere unreachable since again fire came down right in the perfect place...

Perfect baddie teamwork.

In short: We did not manage to kill him. This didn't happen in a very long time.

This just in...

The worst part about this is I actually did it all intentionally.

I tried to sell 100 Rocket Sprockets on the AH by setting the buy price to about 2/3 of the current min buy price (unit prices, obviously) but set the time to 4 hours. Boy, that was dumb. 5,000 crowns lost. The same with large amounts of Rocky Cores, Perfect Snowballs, and Soul Dusts. My materials used to sell, but that was when I was actually selling high-demand mats (Mods, beast mats, etc.). It's actually quite hard to purge out the extra fluff (Volt Oil, Blast Powder, etc.)

but that's not the epic fail.
this is.

blast network, bribe 3 tokens, free for all, about to win, get nice, fat lootz, 2 seconds left on the clock....

then i disconnected.

AAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and im not too sure if this is a fail, but my shockbust brandish seems to be broken. now, in lockdown, it wont shock anymore when i use the charge. it used to all the time when i used the charge attack. i know that it only shocks sometimes, but 20 charges in a row, no shock.

Erm...

I think my biggest fail was when I shot a exploding crate in RJP part 2 in an attempt to use it's explosion to kill some jellies. Normally that works amazingly. But I was in a party with three other people, and they were all in the radius of the crate too. Needless to say, all three of them got downed, and I was almost immediately kicked.

Welp, I was going to solo a T3 run with 4 arenas.

A friend helped me get to Basil a little after a while, and he left, due to wanting to save his energy for other things. I was doing fairly decent, until I got to the arena.

I got windmill slammed by rocket puppies as well as getting pierced by the fully grown lichen colony. And I kept reviving. I stopped when it hit 160 and decided to left. The kicker? This run was done with mostly CRYSTAL ENERGY. I camed in with 292 CE, and came out with around 60. Yeah, not smart on my part.

So awhile ago, when I had

So awhile ago, when I had *just* gotten tier 3 armor (sunset duster), me and my friend were heading down to emberlight so I could get clearance.

On the way, we did 2-3 (I forget which, but it was atleast 2) danger rooms, and 3 arenas, and only had to use CE to revive twice. :>

The last arena was before emberlight, and my friend went down on round 3, so I decided to try my gunslinger skills before heading off to tier 3.
Construct arena, gigawatt pulsar. It was like a dream come true. Needless to say, I managed to solo the last round.

Stopped to brag about me gunning the last round
*SCHING*
Turns out I was barely standing on the very corner of a spike plate that owned me. /epicfail

Oddly enough, that's my biggest fail I can think of. But it was also my biggest win, since it was the first arena I had ever done without dying*.

*without dying to a monster, of course. Unless there's little gremlins under the floor that shove those spike plates up.

Start a wolver stratum with the with my lockdown gear, BRB, AP, and a shivermist. Which might not seem that bad but i came across an arena so that means pollups and mechs i had to use my AP to kill them, i make it through all 3 rounds and go down. i have to leave for a second and when i come back i'm in haven, i probably died.

Also i saw an ice jelly get frozen in one of its friends death pool.

P.S. yes, i wote all that to tell the jelly story

im a failsaur.

my computer runs this game pretty badly, but really i play this game when im tired wayyy too much. i have a pretty sad list of fails :3.

1.) killed in a treasure vault. it was t3, and we all got pounded really hard the level before so everyone had 3 pips of health. i just spam clicked because the enemies are just chromalisks and they cant possibly kill me right? i start my swing too early with GF so only the first cut hit, and as i do the second cut, im wide open for the most epic moment of my SK career.

2.) in LD i was killed by a 3* calibur while in 5* gear. granted i had damage, but ...calibur!???

3.) when i first started, a generous soul gave me 15k cr. i was super excited, and thinking it was a typical rpg, i charged off to the merchant and bought jelly mail, spur, and firecracker...all at merchant prices >.< i dont use any of them anymore.

4.) when i first got my electron vortex, i was running fsc in a full party and they were all donating heat to me by standing in the fire pits in the level right before vana. everyone was down and i decided to re-position myself so i could rez all 3 in one go. just as i stepped over a fire pit, i lagged and also became bbq.

5.) posting the justifier hat recipe 5x before it finally sold (at cheaper than basil prices mind you). NEVER BUY IT TO SELL PPL.

6.) being shocked to death by my party's mecha knight.

theres a million more...

Sheesh we need to revive this thread here.

I just had the most epic fail of note... When I was a wee lad (About 10 minutes ago) I happened to come across a Love Puppy!!! Knowing it was an extremely rare and momentous occasion, I minimized the window and immediately searched for a way to save my screenshot (I don't have Word). Just as I was about to go back into the game to kill the poor beast, I hear the Login screen music. I RUSH back in game and try to login, but the game freezes at the loading screen. I repair my internet connection, log in as quickly as I can and..... I'm in Haven. And I'm in tears.

Bit dark

I came to a mineral area carrying a fire pot from a Punkin King area. A guy in n00b armor was next to me. I tried to pick it up while holding the pot.I threw it and the blast set the guy on fire to 1 bar of health. All can I say is ''sorry...''

With Protoarmor like a boss I farmed a huge jelly on solo! I changed the "Shield button" to make it easier for me, and the giant lichen colony killed me repeatedly since i had no extra vitapod. That was like a month ago or two.

Noobowns, I did a similar thing and accidentally equipped a frostbreaker helm and armor at d23 as a joke right before FSC... -_-

Moar failz:

1) One of my first t3 runs ended up in a graveyard with mighty cobalt armor (yes crafting this as my first 4* armor set should be a fail in itself) and an acheron. AND three other poorly equipped knights. Wasted a bunch of ce on revs then had the optimistic idea that if I went solo and rev'd I would only have to deal with one phantom... 

2) Talking to the party members while monsters are approaching then realizing I can't move or attack because I'm still typing in the chat bar then frantically backspacing out of embarassment instead of just pressing enter only to get killed because I was too slow. And I STILL do this >:(

Today:

Went on a random T2 run trying to gain free Vana access for the remainder of the week and fight against fiends. All went well as I entered T3 and continued from there with more randoms...then I opened a box... and another party member got a free armor of the fallen T_T

The vana run that occured after d23 did not go so well either, while it didn't result in any revives for me, when I made it to the elevator before Vanaduke. I split and went solo to attempt my first ever fail vana fight. But in phase 3...vanaduke ran away..

Fail

Well, here's my list of facepalms:
_A Blast Network game started, we bribed King Krogmo, he offered us a MASK,no one can move (including me), filed a report, Poseidon came, we chatted. The result? No Mask, 1 Krogmo Koin, and the 8/12/2011 update -_-
_FSC, rocket room, somehow 3 of my teammates managed to get themselves killed AT the same spot while trying to rev. I was dumb enough to go in. 2 rockets almost shattered my shield, but I got out in time. Guess what, the third rocket traveled through the barrier, chasing me while I run toward the fountains, blew up...
_Jelly King Palace, I got pushed next to an explosive block, and a smarty pants shot the block -_-
_I got killed by a gremlin mender AFTER THE BUG FIX.
_(This is not my fail) A dude in my team wore his spiral cullet instead of a vog coat (the coat he wore as costume), we ended up busting through the entire FSC without knowing it in the end at the core (he lived though)...
_Don't you guys just love arenas with rocket puppies? T3, depth 22, last room, I ran into other teammates while being chased by 4-5 rockets or so. We all ended up dead from the explosions :P
_SPIKES ('nuff said)

There are about two stories

There are about two stories of woe, and they are both home to McFatty Vanaduke.

#1
We have 3 people going into the Vanaduke boss fight, one says it happens to be their first time. He's got a ...firo driver (or magma) as well. He spends most of the match dead, while me and my guildmate keep reviving each other, trading off hp time after time. We were still trying to get the fight down effectively. Needles to say it was painful, but nothing much was wasted. So I get over to the red boxes and
SHADOWTECH ALCHEMER MK II. My first equip drop ever.

Dead guy gets it.

....

#2
This time, its just me and the guildmate. We are doing much better this time, and we get to phase 5.
I am still learning to use this blight needle effectively, so the guards make quick work of me for sure.
Guildmate manages to get cornered by vanaduke, so I have to lead him away. Keep in mind I have like 2 pills.
I run off to revive him, and OH CRAP the guards have trapped me.
Guess who joins the fun. Vanaduke proceeds to attack me with his biggo presence, while all I can literally do is shoot and pill and hope for the best.
A few seconds later after 2 pills I die. THE MOMENT I DIE, my last shot finishes him off.

Errr guildmate, why aren't you getting up?

I didn't revive you?

Everyone ends up dead.

@Negimasonic: Oh wow, that's even worse.

im an idiot.. ask my parents!

this didn't happen to me, it happened to Swiftknife, my friend.
basically, he died on the spikes at the Snarby path and i went to res him. as soon as he got up the spikes killed him again... we finished the level without res him in the end.

Another time my friend wanted to join my party just as we finished a level, so we stood outside the elevator waiting for him to join (open party), and he got really pizzed when he saw that we finished the level and he wasted the ME on going to the next one.

Please don't judge me or him for these events.

I hit the "Join Party" button. I ended up at the start of an Ice Arena. There were three adventurers... that all spoke Spanish! I checked my op[tions and found out the "Party With Any" box was un-checked AND found out my language was set to English. OOO and their system for language barriers was not that great once this happend. Even worse, we found a Love Puppy :D but... none of them knew what a Love Puppy did and tried to attack it D:! Because they spoke Spanish, there was no way i could get them to stop and when they killed it, I just left the party in rage. >:(

Well....

KING!!!! HIII!!! lolz, I was reading your story about the guy in proto who costumed vog, and I was thinking about how I had definitely heard that story somewhere before. Then I looked over and saw it was your username! XD

Now, for my fails...

#1: So a friend and I were on the Royal Jelly Boss floor. We were doing pretty badly, and i drove up my revive cost to 80 and he drove up his to 160. So when we both were both lying dead for the nth time, I wondered if it was worth it to revive again. At that moment, I suddenly see the Royal Jelly splattering all over (you know, his death animation). I was hella confused, until I saw that he died near one of the explosive blocks, and concluded that he must have impaled himself on the block. Needless to say, my friend and I were in total shock. Oh well, we still managed to beat him.... sorta...

#2: Another friend of mine and I were waiting in the Clockworks Terminal for the level to change to an arena. We were playing with our fausts and killing ourselves. No big deal, the heart generators are nearby. UNTIL... we both died. *facepalm* The guy I tried to invite down to the terminal to revive us was in total hysterics...

#3: Getting killed by a Rock Jelly in Lockdown while trying to get a screenshot of it...

#4: Getting killed by my faust's charge attack curse in Lockdown. So the deathcam said "Killed by LIZZI". Derp.

#5: (Not my fail) In Lockdown yet again. I was camping outside the enemy base hoping to pounce on any unsuspecting knights and whack them with my faust. I caught one person, and managed to curse him. So he immediately runs back to his base and sits on the heart generator. He still sees me outside the base and pulls out his gun (I think it was a Silversix) and frantically starts shooting me, I guess hoping for the piercing gun/barrier glitch to work. And that's how I indirectly killed someone while they were in their own base....

Might post more later if I can remember them...

Royal Jelly Run

New one. In the top right room in the Red carpet Runaround, I brought my Khorovod. Three party members were cornered by Jellies in attempt to kill of the southern Gun Puppy. I Charge Attacked the Lumber which was about to attack, and I launched it right to my friends. The Lumber swung its arm on all three of them, killing one immediately, launching one into the spikes (also died instantly to spikes), and the other survived on the spikes, but the Gun Puppy he was fighting already shot an orb, and my friend took a brunt hit from the orb and also died instantly, thanks to spikes, Lumbers, and orb. I pill healed them all and was kicked from the party for killing my friends.
