No really, I don't think I got ANY lucky moments.

Correction: Wait, MOMENTS. Not items acquired. Well, lets just say I got to the Secret Jelly Farm Arena and battled there, and met a monster I have not seen since Beta. Hehehehe.... And did I mention I got a super shield drop from that beta monster?

@Princessroxy

I did this just 2 weeks ago. Do you have any idea how big the nostalgia wave was when it hit me when I saw the beta monster???
I swear, there were so many threads just begging to bring this one monster back. But I'll let you guess what the monster is. :3

In order to get in that arena, I required the work of another player and a helpful monster.

I used to vana 5 times a day. I don't know what happened ._.

I can't even do a full 0-29 run at all. I keep getting interrupted in the real world. Not to mention 5. In fact, now I think I'm starting to see why I don't log on as much as I used to, and why I have this sense of dread just by thinking of SK. Granted I do have 244 sparks which is above the average player (Used to have 324. Damn you Apocrea and Grinchlin assualt), but I still feel inferior and un-wanted both in the forums and in-game. ._.

Hmm

I think before the Battle Sprite Update, you can actually get the Darkfang Shield at FSC? That MUST be a drop of a kind. Now they must have lowered the rates by AT LEAST .50%.

EDIT: Incredibly jealous of PrincessRoxy right now.

EXTRA EDIT: Xtweeterx, if you quit, I will miss you! After all, you show some seerus signs of quitting.... :3

There's only been one recorded drop since the Sprite update IIRC. And yet you're saying you've been getting quite a few drops. It just surprised me is all.

Xtweeterx said: I used to vana 5 times a day. I don't know what happened ._.

Of course if you run vana 5 times a day you will get bored of SK. I mean, I even get bored after running vana one time.... Then I play some LD, play some old missions, hang out with friends, take care of my guild, go AFK, come back, and do some prestige missions.
In fact, I had to admit I did all of this just to prevent myself from quitting SK.
Repetitive boss grinding makes people quit the fastest. It is good to have diversity in your schedule.

*Clue to that old beta monster: Has 3 Os in the name.

@Not-Annilaton

You don't know me. Long before I met you, I LIVED FSC. and it was fun as hell. I made 200K+ just from KoA alone and never got bored. Then I had to make all those sets and it went downhill from there. I have a sense of dread not from FSC, but from the community. I want to talk about it, but doing so hre will get me nothing but negativity. I'd rather discuss it with a few specific people in game. You included.

All of that pre-vow-to-make-all-those-sets stuff explains my absurd amounts of sparks, eternal orbs, and radiants before the radiant sink.

Derp-a-derp.

Now, my luckiest moment would have to be getting 5 Sparks from a single Danger Mission. Yeah, UV's hate me. I got a Shock Medium on my Wise Owlite, a Gremlin VH on my Combuster, a Gremlin MED on my Combuster immediately following...

There was a 4* Shard Bomb, but someone else snagged it and promptly vendored it. ;-;

Don't worry, Tweety. Even though Sirius no longer surfs the forums, he is still in-game. If you have something to say, the rest of the trio will be there to listen to you.

Oh yeah, about that thing. After the latest update, OOO made some changes to the game system.
I was so surprised.
I found a eternal orb in Jelly King elite. I was expecting a elite orb, but whaddaya know? That means every single orb that is supposed to drop is one level higher. Another piece of evidence proved my theory when I found a 2 star orb in depth 3 normal mode. Yeah, now orbs become like radiants.

This is Annilaton logging off for the hour.

Orbs have become Radiants? I think you mean to say Shinings.

And yep, I found an Advanced and Simple Orb in the same set of Treasure Boxes in a Snarby Elite run; just what I needed to get a Toxic Vaporizer MK II to make a Hazer of Humbug.

Hmm...Hazer of Humbug. That sounds pretty epic.

In addition, I once found an Eternal orb in the Twins. As well as Radiants not in a Shadow Lair or FSC. Although it still was Elite.

A long time ago...

I found a shadow driver (I think it was the recipe, actually) in a lichenous lair. This was in tier 2 I think, because I don't remember knowing what it was (I only really started knowing stuff once I hit tier 3).

Oh, and I found three eternal orbs from one box in a dark city recently. I didn't really need any, seeing as I have over 100 already, but it felt good.

Intense punch rolling ked to a CTR med on my DBB. Wicked fast considering chaos set brings it to Max.
I've gotten a emberbreak in a treasure box before but that was when everyone saw everything and you didn't know who would get it(aka before the mist removal). Naturally my partymate got it. I promptly kicked him.

Lets see here...

The VERY FIRST THING I crafted, a brandish, got CTR VH and ASI low. I also received a Holly Scarf and a Crown of Winter for only 13kcr. I also found a Darkfang Shield once, and a Punched afew miscellaneous UV's in the face like Freeze H and Fire H on my Vog set.

....Wait, did I say Darkfang Shield? I meant an Ecto Drop. Kinda difficult to tell apart.

I've got medium ASI and medium CTR on my obsidian edge in exactly one Punch try.
I've found a shadow driver after compound 42 and a sinister skelly shield after LoA about a week before the sprite update. I've got some 2 and 3* items after the danger prestige missions at least once a month before the sprite update actually, but haven't seen any item drops at all after.

But wait ..

Actually

Actually I was just kidding about the Secret Arena problem solved, but I got the plan all listed out:
1.Get another person with you.

2.First, find a lumber, but don't attack it!

3.You must die first, in front of the wall.

4.Make your friend lure the lumber to smash you right through the wall.

5.Now you are in the secret arena. Revive.

6. Make your friend die.

7. Step on party button.

8. Your friend should be teleported to you, dead. Make your friend revive.

9. Fight and enjoy!

10. You are done with the arena. Have fun trying to find a way out of there!

I'm not a Drake! In fact, there's a world of difference between a drake and a sandwich. Or a drake and a dragon, if that's what you meant. And I'm not a dragon either. Take that up with Draycos.

Now, I once got super lucky in Grinchlin Assault. I was SO lucky that I didn't get the one last Razor Ribbon I needed for 3 days.

Though seriously, I got enough Radiants one time to level my Obsidian Edge to 5, giving it CTR Low. I then rolled another CTR Low.

Mine's a bit of a story

So shortly after the battle sprite update... I was crafting a nova driver (to collect all the guns).
On its lvl 10 heat, I got a radiant forge box. (Luck #1)
I opened the forge box for a 3UV ticket (#2) and a shadow key. (#3)
I used the UV ticket on the nova driver and got beast low (boo), Fiend VH (#4), and CTR VH. (#5)

Unfortunately, that has drained my luck and haven't gotten a forge prize box since, despite doing well over 200 forgings (Running a forging analysis).
