Pirate Hunting *drool* !!!

Pirates activities are very rampant on the sea these days! There must be something we can do to kill them all!! We Bounty Hunters have a duty for the society to hunt these pirates!! We must protect the civilians!

WANTED

Reward : 1 Billion Ducats

Rumors has it that a ruthless pirate named ARMOUR or his former name MetalicA: The Dark MusicMan has been going rampage near Azores Island. Many traders from Caribbean Sea stopping here to restock their ships were attacked and robbed. Curiously, the main things being robbed were music items such as Music Drum, Guitar Kapok, ... and yeah some lyric notes and magazines ROTTW .

PAT : " Oh Man, our 15th century music will be lost in history if it continues to be like this !!

 This is a MAJOR Issue !! "

My nakama and I put our heads together to discuss the best tactics for the battle against pirates.

What to do next?

Farewell my love, the Mother of my child. If I die on the battle, I die of honour. Do not shed tears of unhappiness. Wear pride on your sleeves.. I go as a warrrior. Your everlasting love is my strength in those life threatening moments.. Farewell my dear heart ...

NPC : " Err.. I think you got wrong wife ... "

Golden Horde Bounty Hunters Vs Golden Hind Pirate Begins !!

PAT : " Stick Together Team !! "

Tun Perak : " Affirmative "

Truehart : " Roger That "

Battousai : " Fire in the Hole  !! "

Shanks : " Negative, there is no hole sir !! "

The battle was furious, we were outnumbered but our faith and strength were overwhelming! We captured the leader ARMOUR and seized him in the Impel Down Prisons !!

When I locked him up, he said something to me ..

" You may thought that you are doing a good thing. Yes, you are, but really, are you doing what's best for the future? The world is changing, Mr. Shanks ... Justice will prevail when the labels of comdemning is set away. Justice lives deep in our hearts. Everyone think being a pirate is bad, but truly,  are they really bad or do they have a big reason for it ? "

" We ain't do no slack, Mr Shanks .. " He left with his head held up high, and walked towards the dark prison with one great smile ..
Something strange stirred in my heart .. and I wonder .. deeply.

We all have sworn brotherhood now and forever, to prevail justice no matter what the cost. As for now, we gather our strength as one and choose the best path that lead us to our unknown destiny.

But who knows what justice really means.

" The world is changing Mr. Shanks .... "

All u need to know about sails in UWO !!

Ahoy! Today we have a special appearance from my nakama, MissSmithyChee! She has this awesome tutorial on Horizontal Sail versus Vertical Sail.

Sail away, Chee!

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

Vertical Sail VS Horizontal Sail

Most people have different opinions about this. But did they really know how it works?

Using this chance given by Red-Haired-Shanks, I will give some sailing tutorial based on my experience in Uncharted Waters Online and a few other Sailing MMOG. It might not be accurate, but I hope everyone will get the big picture about how your sail work.

Before I start explaining on how sail works, I want to explain about the wind first. Sometimes we feel, wherever we go, we keep having headwind just like the wind really hate us. The truth is, in Uncharted Waters Online, we have 2 wind seasons (summer and winter).

here, I would suggest to all UWO players to download GVO Navi program (use google, it will show on the 1st list) or at least download the map provided by ipewannasay in Netmarble Forum using this GVO-Mediafire-link   <<< Click There xD.

Those maps will have 2 most wind directions as your reference. It might change around 30 degree left or right from it, so be aware and don’t blame this map wind direction as a mistake. Still, your experience is also the best teacher. So use it as your reference only.

Now I will start explaining about sail :)


1.     Vertical Sail

The game has already mentioned in the beginner school quest that vertical sail is good on headwind. But did you know that vertical sail is also bad on tailwind? I won’t say Vertical Sail is good on headwind, but I prefer to say it is really good on side wind.

I hope everyone can understand my drawing >.<

So, using the clock direction, avoid headwind from 11.00 to 1.00, and avoid tailwind from 5.00 to 7.00.

When you sail in the red direction, your sail might lose around 10% of your true sail speed. I don’t know exactly the penalty given by this game, it is just my estimation.


2.    Horizontal Sail (Square Sail)

I believe everyone have already experienced how fast we are when sailing using horizontal sail. But really hate it when we get headwind. Hmm.. who didn’t? :)

Penalty given on headwind using horizontal sail might reach 30%. Before you say “Impossible!” because your ship has never reached penalty up to 30% of your speed when using horizontal sail, be patient please, I will explain the big picture in no.3 :)

What is the most advantageous when using horizontal sail is on tailwind. I can estimate that you can get bonus around 10% on speed.

It looks like the red area is so big, yes it is. I will use clock direction again. Using Horizontal sail, you have to avoid headwind coming from 10.00 to 2.00. I don’t need to explain how big is the area for tailwind most favoured, because I believe you are already happy to sail on “normal speed”.

3. Horizontal Sail + Vertical Sail

Here we go about the big picture I mentioned before.

As you have already noticed, all ships have vertical points and horizontal points.
Before I answer that, how about if we combine those 2 pictures into 1? What is the result?

 

Now we can forget about the green area, because that area is the speed area, you don’t have to worry for the wind coming from those direction.

But now why did I put yellow area on it?

As I’ve explained before, when using square sail, you will be faced with a bigger area to avoid, and your speed will be reduced to 30%. But, if your vertical sail is bigger than 30% of your square sail, then your vertical sail will take place here. And remember, your vertical sail doesn’t have the penalty on yellow area.

How about the headwind in red area? It also works in the same way. Penalty for square sail reaches 30%, whilefor your vertical sail only 10%, now use your calculator. The biggest number will take place.

Now, have you decided yet which sail is the best?

Well, this is how I use my sail. Before I start sailing, I’ll check all wind directions I will find on may way to destination using map in GVO Navi. Then, I try to set course best for horizontal sail. Normally, I will use large extra sprit in my special equipment. But sometimes, you can’t avoid to face headwind no matter how you’ve tried to set the best course. If I encounter this difficulty, I will use large extra spanker to replace my large extra sprit. This way, I still can sail fast on headwind.

So in my opinion, decide your destination, routes and sail or even refit your ship, if possible, before you start your voyage.
I hope my explanation will help. I know it’s not perfect or even accurate. I would be happy if someone could help me fix some error in it ^^

Red! Thank you! ^^

# 1 Minute Super Tips - Increase Marching Skill The Easy Way

Right now I'm sweating myself in the enchanted forest near East Sumatra.. sitting under a tree!! Lol!! This is a very good advantage, since all you have to do is be in land battle area, and boom! Every 10 minutes or so, your marching skill is increased !!

If you don't have anything to sell in your bazaar, or you are going for dinner, afk shopping out town, dating with hot chicks, blogging whatever ...  why not head to the nearest land battle ground and sit in peace under the shade! :)

Really simple, isn't ? Every minutes in this games is precious, right? Bet you didn't think of that xD

Woot Woot Woot 3 More Level Up after 2 hours :P

5 Best Nation SwordMaster in Actions !!

Guys, sorry for the delay! I have been on almost a week holiday with my family in another town. But I am inspired by a very strange idea lately.. How is it strange? Have you ever watch "Games of Thrones"? Yeah, I think it is the best TV series this season.. It is about a political civil war between 7 regions in old fashioned century. The best part? Of course the shiny, gleaming, mystical swords and dragon myths :P

Talking about swords.. the story started when I was looking at the skill stats rank. Oh no.. I need a lot of proficiencies to rank up my skills before I can get to the SwordMaster Job !!! ..... but if i can get that Master Job now, I can easily get all that as favored skills. All the easier to make all the related skills rank up. Favored skill? What did that even mean? Always new terms to get your head spinning, eh?




Swordmaster quest - London; Pride of swordsman
Requirement :Swordmastery R8 - English -30k Battle Fame - Lvl 40 mt. - no pre req

 

The stars at the expert skill show SwordMaster favored skill. These stars will shine when we get any specialized jobs that include all those favored skills we want.. The good thing is that the favored skills help you to gain more points with low proficiency. For example, to increase SwordPlay Skill Rank 4 (they are represented as R4.. so get use to more shortforms like TGGAT, MFRS , MFCV etc..lol) to Rank 5 (R5), needs 2500 Proficiency. But if SwordPlay is a favored skill, then it will require only 1500 Proficiency to achieve, more time saving.. Got it?

So, what do I do now? Talk to any hot chick that got "SwordMaster" job of course!! lol.. 

What ?! Yeah, the hot chick is a MUST wahahahah !!!

My friend , Mileena landed herself the master job. So, after a few discussions ( yes, please use +5 Persuasion Items against all hot chicks :P ), I followed her to the maritime guild and leeched her with other 3 members. By doing this, the SwordMaster Job Quest Unlocked !!

 By the way, you might want to fleet with 4 others because the enemies are quite tough and a huge number at that. If you get a full fleet then it will be a more fair deal in the duels !! And the most interesting part is that we managed to gather members from 5 different nations; with a sip of blood from swords and we are all now sworn to brotherhood until the end !! 

** The 5 Best Nations SwordMasters **

Between the waves of the raging sea

echoes of warcries and battle hymns

the underworld's armies found their ancient queen

the funeral march in the depths of the abyss

The terror which strikes the honor which prays

will be face to face in the mortal crusade

Resist my fierce soldiers their vision can kill

it will test your courage... and your will to live

I'll avenge all those cries I will rise to the sky

to defend mother life...

Ride... die... sacrifice!

 Ahh.. too much watching " Games of Thrones "  ... lol :P

So the news from city was true ..  on our best lookout, we found the enemy waiting as if sensing our presence there. Bravely, we stepped forward and faced them all, commanded them to surrender! But no sire, defeat were not in their blood! They were the master in the game, fearly known as the 5 Royal Ancient Tygerian Dragon Guards .. No coward word they carried in their long cursed massacre life .. As a master face another, we were looking eye on eye

..  and when the time came so silently , only a gust of wind on our faces  ...

Battousai shouted, " For Brotherhood !!!!! "

And then the most fearsome battle engaged !! Couldn't even think for a second, all my best skills were bursting rapidly unstoppable ..  Just the sound of slashing swords , and blood dripped as each master pierced one another .. And we faced them, fearless of the Swordmaster, proud to be in the best swords fight ever !!

Nearing the peak ending, I stabbed the leader on the chest after slashing his knees and wrist with my critical blows " The 10,000 Swords Flower " !!

For a SwordMaster, to end their life in battle is an honour.

As they fall, I could see them still smiling. Even in the end it was a lost to them, but when the battle commenced, their heart were racing again, as the best duels of their life happened again. It was a great feeling bestowed upon only the best swordmaster. 

It was a glorious victory !! Thanks again to all members of the brotherhood; Battousai, kaylass, Romanovska and Mileena for this cool quest.

Mileena, did you purposely posed for the picture somehow ??!! lol :P

Back to London bebeh !! xD

And yeah, here i am, with my new-late-delayed-post-blog Master Job, The SwordMaster with low skills and beaten by the girl on the London Bridge . WHAT !!! uhh ~

FUWOM® Prelude

A couple of weeks back, I met an adorable furry bear in Cairo. Well, actually it is an UWO Police but isn't that a really cute costume, just like the pumpkin head that I used to wear one time (I'm sure my friends would remember my cuteness with the charming pumpkin right? .. Ah I know I'm cute don't flatter me too much :P

Scammers in town..

Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked here. We were discussing about scammers in town, that even UWO top management couldn't do anything about it. It's pretty hard, as a scammer can easily delete his character after a false deal and make a new character. These scammers can even manage to reach high power leveling, up to level 30 for each class ( therefore we have to be careful and avoid any dealer with lower than 100 level when accumulated all classes , it's wayyy too risky bebeh !! )

I have posted a discussion thread in Netmarble forum to get the best advice from all seniors and UWO members on how best to deal with this situation. You can look up the discussion at this link http://tinyurl.com/shanksuggest. My idea is to create 1 public review to assess any name that you consider recommended and trustworthy to reduce the scamming activity. We want to get more security in dealing the big 5 ships or any items that is worth more than 100 million transactions.. Yeah it's a risky business but we need to sort this out efficiently !!








The Official Fellowship of UWO Merchants® or FUWOM® is a good start to gather all fellowship merchants and reunite to fight for this purpose. Most of all I need your advice and all of your support to make sure this really work.


Let's wrapped it up for now...

Not only recommended name can be sorted out , but it will be a guild of merchants that will decide what should the best price of each big 5 ships and look into how to improve the current transaction today. We can provide better solution for future transactions to Netmarble in rectifying the scammerism (is that even a word? lol) issues. We will somehow manage the market inflation & prevent from the ruin of future economic server issues, and any related matter in merchants view goes back and start with us first, how's that sound? :)

As this rate, WE ARE BECOMING THE NEW GOVERNMENT ! We welcome all the memorandums from all company's director which will be issued to the server management (Netmarble). Hopefully we will be able to exchange the issues for REAL favor and highlight suggestions between them and the public residency in all nations.

Aren't we going too serious lately ??!! Ahahaha :P

As the next step, we as a 1 unity fellowship merchants can find 1 date and 1 spot to discuss together about this. We have FUWOM as our base to all public review.. And yeah thats the dream we are starting today :)


Let's hear what your thoughts are! xD
