We've got some good news for the league. We've managed to attract a number of active players, and some of them are really high level. We've got all the active players from the Devil's Mind league with us now, and a few of them are active pvp'ers too.

I wasn't planning to go to SVS this weekend because most of our high level players haven't been seen for a while. With this group, I'll go make the reservation as soon as I post this. Hopefully a few people will read this before the weekend and we'll have some fun with that fight.

Also, there is a 2x complete event this weekend. All of xp rate, skill rate and drop rate will be doubled from noon Sunday until midnight on the 1st of November. It's not often we get a complete event so lets go out and enjoy it. I'll be on my nuker for this event because...

The bad news is, the second half of Tibet has been delayed yet again. This time "for some weeks". "Technical reasons" is all we were told but you know that translates from Korean as "Indy21 fucked something up again".

Oh well.

The Games Campus publisher is holding another of their forum events and we're thinking to enter this Gif as our league entry. I'll open the comments section for this post.

ShadowGuyver pretty much gave up the game last night. We did a run in Gold Coins Mansion for him, to get that killer epithet. It was fun. It's just sad to see another experienced adult player leave the game. Let's face it, they're hard to replace. That guy in particular will be really hard to replace. He's been playing for years and was even a volunteer game manager back in the Acclaim days. There aren't too many around who know more about the game than I do, but he would be one of them.

He's got good reasons though and we all have to respect them. He's graduating university in a few weeks and is already searching for a job. He's got a girlfriend too now, one of the original sort of time sink. He hasn't been too happy about the state of the game either, and in his own words, "Games Campus hasn't done much to improve the game".

He's right of course. This league is called Disconnected for a reason, and we all still get dc'ed far too often. The game crashes at the map changes are pretty annoying too. There is still no such thing as PvP balance even with the artificial attack rating cap on the nukers. All it takes is one high level nuker to show up and no one else will ever have a chance to take one of the fortresses. In Black vs White war Batuo can single-handedly defend the white side Hermit.

PvP balance may not be something that Games Campus can ever fix but there are plenty of other issues they could deal with, and obviously they don't have the same concerns that we players have. Refining hacks get a three day ban, quest repeats are still happening, damage is hacked on the bosses, level hacking is back, and shared accounts are more common than ever. The lack of responses from Games Campus mean it's just not worth to report them anymore.

And in the mean time, another one bites the dust.

See ya Shadow, it was a lot of fun having you around! Come and see us once in a while.

The next Storm vs Storm for the Hangzhou map will be on Sunday the 27th, at 5pm and I have reserved us a place at the event. Everyone in the league is invited to participate, particularly anyone who has any buffs to offer. They all add up. Mobs in the fortress are CS level though, so it will be up to the higher level players to take the fortress.

We really do want that fortress. Players who are grinding on the Hangzhou map get an xp bonus, and we have a fair number of people there right now. There is also the small matter of the 10% tax on all sales to NPC's on that map. The fortress owners get rich pretty quick, and if we do win I'll make sure there are cookies in every lunchbox.

The other reason we want that fortress is because the current owner is a particularly annoying nuker by the name of Jazz. He owns the Elites hero band and as far as I can tell, he's pretty much the only member. I hardly ever see anyone else with that name band name in the game. It doesn't matter, they're all going to be fair game on Sunday afternoon.

In the mean time I'm going to be grinding AxtTreiber again, to Golden Lotus. Every little bit helps when you're dealing with nukers!

It's all well and good to get new material, new events, and bug fixes, but could we please have more than 10 seconds notice that the servers are going down? Games Campus used to give us a couple of days notice for stuff like this. It was nice.

Anyway, the patch notes are out and Camlost is making full use of the International Corner of the forums these days. The announcements are now in English too, so be sure to check the forum from time to time, as well as this blog.

Apparently red flowers will be blooming all over the maps, and white flowers will be dropping from mobs. We're supposed to take the flowers to the merchant beside Wan Daye and trade for items that haven't been described yet. Otherwise, the disconnection issue is supposed to be fixed with this patch, and the notes say that the Chinese New Year event will continue for at least another week.

In league news, we have two more FC++ players in the league, ShadowGuyver and Lilith. Hopefully we'll be doing Killer of Beasts epithet runs for them tonight. Normally you could get the KoB epi much earlier than that but they'll have to play the finisher role for each other. Hopefully there will be some pretty good drops!

Update 1: The red and white flower drops are working and the items from the General Goods Merchant beside Wan Daye are pretty impressive. In particular there is a silver ring that is a 10% damage relic. It doesn't appear to have an expiry date either. The gold ring is a reflection relic and I'm not sure how useful that will be. There is a 3rd item there too, a flower pot, and I'm not sure what that does yet.

Update 2: The descriptions for items in the resources map tabs is missing. I checked the pass merchant on the Hangzhou map and all of his normal items are there. I don't know about the other merchants.

Update 3: The drop rate has been increased for the weekend.

Update 4: The gate to the Hangzhou map, from Liaodong doesn't work. I relogged. It works now.

Update 5: When you buy the flower pot from the General Goods Merchant beside Wan Daye you get to talk to the master of ornaments. You choose who to give the flowers too and you get an epithet. If you choose to give the flowers to Jiang Daxi the epithet is +15 all attributes and an xp rate increase that doesn't work.

You can also choose to give the flowers to the refining bitch Mo Tailan. Who in their right mind would ever do that? But you can. The epithet from her is also +15 all attributes and an increase in the drop rate. We're still trying to figure out if that drop rate increase is working.

We've had the Master & Disciple system in the game now for just a little over a year. In fact, we had our largest number of hits in one day, the day patch 101 came out early last year. We've written a lot about the Masters & Disciples, and if you're new to the game, it's worth to read the background information that we've put together.

You can find all of our articles on any given topic in that side bar to the right. It's in alphabetic order by topic.

If you listen to any disciple you'll always hear them complaining that their master is never online. I don't know why anyone would want to be a master if they aren't going to be online all the time, and I try to tell wannabe disciples to be careful who they pick as a master. Once you pick one, you're stuck with him for 72 hours. A good grinder can get to SM1 in that time, so ask around and find yourself master who can actually help you.

The other side of the coin is the complaints from the masters, all about lazy disciples, and I've had my share. The guys I hate are the ones building a new alternate character, and they want a master for that character but, "event now, so I is go plays my main. k, thx, buhbai". Grrr...
The least you can do if you you're building an alt-character with a master is to get that character to SM1 as quickly as you can, so the master can give that spot to the next disciple.

We're doing fairly well recruiting for the league on the German server because we've been able to get a few people to SM1, and we always have disciple spots available for players moving over to this server.

Anyway, let me tell you about The Laziest Disciple Ever.

I got my band going a few weeks ago and I needed a couple of people willing to join us, to build a band for each of the Heavenly Demons and Sacred Flowers and then form a league. Obviously I would prefer to have people I know and have played the game with before. WuTaHe from the Restless League joined us to start a Demon band, and to help that along I took him on as a disciple.

He did great. Obviously he's an experienced player and was able to reach the RL1 level in just a couple of days. With a few map shouts, Lion's Roars, and a few people I had in my friends list, he got his band started. We met up in Hefei, formed an Alliance, and Disconnected was a league again.

Here's where it gets funny. After that DeMoral (his new character name) ran to Xuanshe on the Shi Zhang map, he sat down and then did not move at all for more than a week! In fact, he only finally got disconnected from the server yesterday when Games Campus took the server offline for patch number 10. He's still RL1!!!

DeMoral/WuTaHe wins, hands down, the award for Laziest Disciple Ever! Still, I miss him, and forgive him. It's ok, he can come back. I won't be mad.

Uhm, I miss xenawarior too...

I'm not usually the type to write introspective pieces. I prefer to report news, or juicy rumors when I can get them, and I'm sure most of you have noticed that I'm not afraid to hand out my opinion on any given subject. I like to think it's one of my more charming qualities. Still, it is New Years Eve and this has been quite the year for us, and for the game as a whole.

One publisher failed and another has failed quite spectacularly and repeatedly too, but people are still playing the game on the GamersFirst servers. I have no idea why. Yet another publisher has opened a server and not too many people have moved there yet. Yet. Don't be put off by the possible language barrier on Games Campus 9D German server. There is plenty of English spoken there and our league is off to a good start.

One factor for the near future will be the issue of event times. GamersFirst obviously have no idea what they're doing. It's a major holiday long weekend here and they have no event at all.

Games Campus isn't quite that clueless. We have an event for this long weekend but it's 2x only for experience rates. Skill rates and drop rates haven't been adjusted to match up with experience rates, and drop rates were low to begin with. When an experienced player like myself can't get a Wan Daye RL weapon there is something wrong. I haven't seen any Wan Daye weapons in the game so far.

I have been pushing Games Campus on the issue of drop rates and regular events too, as opposed to the marathons we've had so far. The only way to attract people to the Games Campus server, and to get them to play regularly will be to offer regular events, much like what we had with Acclaim. I really hate to show Acclaim as having done something right, but they did do at least that one thing right. We had regular events.

There isn't much more to say. Our league is spread out all over the place. Some of our people who followed me to 9D Germany even went over to the white side! No more cookies for those guys. And we haven't heard from many good people in a long time.

When goodgrrrl, RedCross and myself started this league and started recruiting we were all about the same level. We played together every day and always had someone around to get buffs, or help with a quest. People don't all level up together though and eventually we spread out a little. At one time we got to a point where we started losing people because as one person put it, there is no else around these levels but me! We lost a few people because of that.

Before Acclaim pulled the plug though we were coming back together level wise, and we started playing together again too. We were partying up, grinding together, trading buffs, running dungeons and generally having a very good time. I miss that, and I miss our old league chat from Bardo.

They may have been the best of times that we'll see in this game.

Auld Lang Syne.

Yesterday I found a few of our older friends and a few new ones and we put together the Disconnected Band on the German server. It's going well. A couple of people wanted to join the moment they saw us. It was like, "hey, I know your website!!!", and "you guys speak English!!!", which is going to be the purpose of our league.

We have 11 players so far and 4 or 5 are bilingual with German and English, and a couple of Ro players too. Our league chat is all English and people are around to translate if you need it. There are instructions on how to change your language files though, and you won't need much help if you want to play on this server. Check the comments section from the last post for more details on the language files.

Still, we're only a band and we would like to be a league, and I've had a number of Heavenly Demons types asking to join us but none have time to be the bandmaster. Gerrus or WuTaHe, if you're out there I sure would like to hear from you, particularly if you're willing to be an HD bandmaster.

And lastly, I miss my xenawarior friend. I need an SF bandmaster too!

About a week ago we were goofing off in chat, talking about our favorite league slacker [B-Stard]. Apparently he has a brand new deco, which is pretty cool because I'm more or less stuck with one of the old and ugly clan decos as my 440 dodge deco. When I built it we didn't have the choice to buy reasonably good looking permanent decos from the coin mall. And while [B-stard] might b-slack, I'm a cheap b-stard and I'm not going to spend more money on this game any time soon.

But it got me thinking. If you could have any deco you wanted, what would it look like? Now I'm turning that idea into a league event, just because we haven't had one in a while.

So here is how it goes;

This event is open to Disconnected and Restless League members. You are to design a deco in character sized proportions, both male and female, and I want to see both front and back. You can choose any theme you want of course, but the winning ideas are going to be game related. Keep in mind, the game is set in the Ming Dynasty era of ancient China. Also, I don't want to see anything more blatantly sexual than any of the actual deco or clothes, or mobs in the game. I will be happy to see more than one submission per person, but there will only be one prize per person awarded.

Prizes? Ah yes, prizes. The winning idea will get 5 Blood Essence and an experience card. Second place will get 3 Blood Essence and an experience card, and Third place, 1 Blood Essence and an experience card.

Wow, with prizes like that I wish I could play too! When I was a kid I couldn't keep my crayons inside the lines, and I still can't. I guess it's a good thing I can write well.

Put your ideas onto an image server somewhere and give us a link in the comments section of this post. I'll put the images into this post as I get them.

I'm starting to think that this is going to be our best league event yet, and I'm looking forward to seeing your ideas. The event closes next weekend on Sunday, after the normal experience event.

I just want to remind our players that our Donor account has an awful lot of useful stuff available. We may not always have what you are looking for, but it never hurts to ask. In particular our RelicGirl character is stuffed full with the new good and bad karma Strength, Dexterity and Constitution relics. These things drop like rain on the Tibet map and I've been handing them in regularly.

If you're just starting out the RC relics can make a big difference and the combination of RC and FD level relics is a really good way to make up for the penalty statistic. For Healers that is Constitution and that's why I've been saving them. A hybrid can also use a few of those when they start to run the Golden Coins Mansion. With the hybrid constitution self-buff few hybrid players ever add to that stat, making GCM a death sentence.

We don't have a many manuals on our ManualMan character these days, just a few Heavenly Demon 10x2 manuals. Let me know if you would like them. What we do have there are a lot of skill books for each of the 3 clans, but of course we don't have the most expensive books like the fast heal skills, or the nuker shield books. Still, it never hurts to ask and if you put together a list of what you're looking for I'll be happy to go through bags for you.

Our Donor character has a few elixirs of just about every levels except level 3, again just ask and I'll see what I've got. There are some clothing items there, including some good items for FD12 characters, in particular VE hats and a few of those interesting dodge hats too.

The best time to get stuff from me is an hour or so before the weekly experience events starts. I'm usually online at that time, and have to time to look for stuff. Please don't ask during events, because just like everyone else I'm busy grinding!

So, what items do you need?

The semi-finals of the World Cup start tonight and some places call that the Round of 4, because only 4 teams are left. Tonight the Netherlands will play Uruguay for a spot in the championship match, and both xenawarrior and [Yui] placed original bets on the Netherlands. We know who they will be cheering for!

Tomorrow night Germany plays Spain for their chance at a spot in the Championship match and the retired 9D player Hoppelhase and [_Charming_] from our league selected Germany, while AinTua from the Restless League took Spain as his re-entry pick. He was the only one to take a re-entry pick, by the way. I was a little surprised by that.

Either way, I expect both games will be fun to watch but it's not quite a do-or-die situation. The losers of the next two games will play again for the third place spot, this weekend on Saturday. The championship game will be played on Sunday night.

At stake in our league pool are 56 Blood Essences, and wouldn't that be quite the nice little prize for a single winner like AinTua? Not that I'm expecting Spain will beat Germany!

As I said in the original post, if more than one player picks the winner, the prize pool will be shared equally. Wouldn't it be funny if Uruguay won the big prize? Nobody picked that team even from the beginning. If that happens, the player(s) who picked the 2nd place team will share the prize pool.

Update

And the Winner is; Spain!

Aintua from the Restless League has already picked up 56 Blood Essence from me, and he wants to thank you, for each and every one of them. What I find interesting is that he was the only player to "re-enter" the pool with a second bet, but he walked away with the big prize. This is just good betting strategy and it's why I offered it.

It was a fun event for me, and I hope you all enjoyed it too.

The last of the round-robin games are done and we know who is going to play in the Round of 16, so these are your choices for the betting pool, complete with their next opponent.

26.06 Uruguay -:- South Korea and USA -:- Ghana

27.06 Germany -:- England and Argentina -:- Mexico

28.06 Netherlands -:- Slovakia and Brazil -:- Chile

29.06 Paraguay -:- Japan and Spain -:- Portugal


Our Players and their Selection for the Round of 16.

1. AinTua - Portugal (that must be really annoying...)
2. blacknight - England (God was busy saving the Queen...)
3. FantasyMage - Brazil (the surprise of the Tournament...)
4. xenawarrior - Netherlands
5. TS-Hyb-NS - Argentina (poor Maradona...)
6. Menandore - Portugal (painful even...)
7. NTS - Argentina (now Argentina is crying...)
8. Thordal - Slovakia (Damn Dutchmen...)
9. Arashi_Tora - Mexico (Don't Cry for me Argentina...)
10. MrBlooM - Argentina (They aren't crying Arashi...)
11. Squirrel - Portugal (and now for the real bet!!!)
12. [Yui] - Netherlands
13. [_Charming_] - Germany

At the moment we have 13 players and a prize pool of 5o Blood Essences, thanks to very generous donations from Arashi_Tora and MrBlooM of the Restless League and AhZi from the Disconnected League. As I said, I'll allow a re-entry bet before the Round of 8 starts, if your team gets eliminated in this round.

Based on popular request to participate I will open up the second round of betting to new participants, but you will have to pay 2 Blood Essences. This is only fair to the others who have already paid to enter, and may have to pay another BE in order to re-enter. So far we have Hoppelhase, and I know other Restless members would like to play too. You will have until Thursday to enter, or to re-enter as the case may be.

Here are the teams in the Round of 8, and their opponents.

02.07 Netherlands -:- Brazil and Uruguay -:- Ghana

03.07 Argentina -:- Germany and Paraguay -:- Spain

14. Hoppelhase (Retired) - Germany
15. AinTun (re-entry) - Spain

We're now up to 56 BE with another generous donation from AinTua of the Restless League.

For the rest of the week the teams in the World Cup will be playing the last games of the round-robin stage of the tournament. By Friday night we will know which of the 16 teams will move up to the next round, and I thought we would make a league event out of it. This event is open to all Disconnected and Restless League members, so let's have some fun together.

This will be a betting pool using Blood Essence as our prizes. Every player who wants to join us can select which team they think will win from the Round of 16. You will pay 1 BE into the pool with your choice and the players who correctly pick the winner will share the BE prize pool.

If your team is eliminated from the tournament in the Round of 16 I will allow a re-entry pick from the Round of 8, but you'll have to pay another BE into the prize pool. There won't be a re-entry pick from the Round of 4 because that would probably be just a bit too easy.

If no one picks the actual winner of the tournament, the prize pool will go to the players who picked the second place team, and if we have to we'll go down to the third place team but I doubt that will be necessary.

So, on Friday night after the Group H teams have played their final games I will be in Hefei at the event stage to take your picks and Blood Essence. At the same time I will build a public googledoc so that every one can see who has picked which team. Because I'm holding the prize pool, I won't be making a pick even though Germany is obviously going to win the World Cup.

And last of all, if the prize pool is not a round number that can be shared out equally I will add to the pool so that it can be shared equally.

Sound like fun? You think you know Football?

I get a lot of compliments about this blog, often from people I don't even know all that well, like white clan players. It's really nice to hear that people are actually reading this blog, even if they don't comment. I want to mention that the comment section is open to anyone and not just league members. Just keep it clean and polite please, even if you disagree with me about something.

A few nights ago I got one of those compliments and just for the heck of it I asked, "Is there anything you don't like about the blog?". The guy actually had an answer for me! He would like to see more people posting material on this blog.

Yeah well, me too.

I did remind him that the comments section is open to anyone, and the truth is we have several league members who have permission to post here. There just doesn't seem to be much long-term interest in it. I will use this post to again invite league members to become writers. In particular I would really like to see a few more guides on the blog. Quest guides are always popular and something like a Frequently Asked Quest Questions would be really helpful for new players. How many times have you been asked, "where is Yan Kaisheng"?

So there are a couple of ideas if a new writer would like become a part of this blog. Don't worry about your English language skills, I'm more than happy to edit that sort of thing.

And you know, the truth is some of our best and most popular posts were not written by me. Goodgrrrl did almost all of our boss posts and RedCross built our list of the most useful books. The only page of this blog that gets more hits than those two is the home page of the blog, because that's what everyone has bookmarked.

I would love to have some help over here, and I look forward to hearing from you.

You've probably seen these Damaged Hero Journals around Hefei lately, and I just found out where they come from. The first mobs you meet on the Tibet map are "Fiends of..." the various clans. The lowest levels are the Brotherhood and Beggar mobs and I protest! The Brotherhood are not the lowest of the Black Clans, thank you very much.

I've seen that the Sacred Flowers are in the next mob, so supposedly the Shaolin are with them. Then the Heavenly Demons and Wu-Tang Clan probably come after that. That's how the clans are usually paired up. Those guys are still red for me, so I haven't wandered up there too far.

The first two mobs will rarely drop one of these Damaged Hero Journals and I finally got a good explanation of what those things are for. In other versions of the game there are collections from the clan map that use these Journals. You buy a clan manual and combine them with a Hero Journal to get a better manual in return. Great Idea! The thing is, unless you have a character in every clan, not all of these Journals are all that useful to you.

I've made a deal with the Restless League to trade white for black Hero Journals. For now this wont be too big of a deal because there aren't many of us playing on the Tibet map, but when the time comes it will nice to have a supply of these Journals that we can each use.

Let me know if you need a contact name in the Restless League, or join us in the IRC channel.

Updated! See Below

The high level players in this league often help out our lower level players with dungeon runs, and epithets and loot, but for some reason we don't always get to play together. It wasn't always like that. As a matter of fact when we started this league it was a small group of players who played almost every day, and we got to play together too. It was an awful lot of fun.

Some players leveled up faster than others and some left the league, or left the game. These days though the players who are still here are coming back together at the higher levels. These are the big kids of our league. There is a level cap in the game and leveling up takes a lot of time now. We're running dungeons again together, and I'm really enjoying playing again with some of my old friends in this game.

I would like to invite all the "big kids" in the league for a dungeon run. Sunday night after the event let's gather in Fengwei on the LiaoDong map, and let's unleash Disconnected Fun on the School of the Rising Sun.

Every current or former bandmaster, or league member that I met when I was playing at the FD levels (long before I was ever league master) is invited. In particular I want to invite RedCross and goodgrrrl, because they both have decided to not play quite so much as they used to. I think a fun dungeon run would do you both a bunch of good.

Isobel91, if you're reading this? You are most certainly welcome. We'll take care of you. Elfy, you better be there! Xena, you too! Hiho, Yukiko! (... sorry ChunYing, I know you're working ...)

Bugly and Jiang, it's never a better time to come join us again. We'll make a place for you.

I have no doubt that Gehrk will be as solid and dependable as ever. My right hand man.

And I wish to extend a special welcome to [B-Stard], our newest bandmaster, to a Disconnected Fun Run.

Edit: Ok, this idea sort of fell apart because a few people didn't show up. I would have thought those guys would know to at least check the blog daily to see if anything is going on!

Why don't we try again this coming Saturday night, after the extended XP event?

What we're trying for here is a complete run so that we'll all get at least the Conqueror Epithet. So far we have 2 PS level vagabond/warriors, 2 H level warriors, 1 H level healer, plus others lower who are invited. The 2 PS level characters will need to be healed regularly for this to work, and hybrid damage reduction buffs are obviously welcome too. If the highest level players don't show, we'll chat this up in league to see who else might like to try it with us. FantasyMage comes to mind, along with TS and AhZi.

I was watching the original Star Wars movie last night. You remember the cantina scene where Han Solo meets up with Greedo? Greedo get's shot for well, you know, being Greedo. It was the director's cut last night so Han shot first. There is a bit of a controversy about that and you can read about it here. Here is what I'm talking about...

Anyway, it gave me an idea. There are a lot of Greedos in this game. Let's shoot them.

In fact, let's make a league event out of it. Here is the deal. Go to Hefei and find a real Greedo and take a screen shot of his stand. Make sure to show us who it is, what they are selling, and how greedy he's being. But you're not done there. You have to go and find the same item in a different stand, selling for a normal price. So you have to post 2 screen shots in the comments section. The prize for this event is 1 Blood Essence for each Greedo.

You: Waaaahhh, all that work just for one BE?
Me: Don't be a Greedo, or you'll get shot too.
You: Yes Boss, sorry...

The event is open to league members only and there is only one prize per player, so make it a really greedy one. Now go shoot Greedo!

Please join me in welcoming our new Heavenly Demon Band Demons_Gate.

I mentioned in my last post that we were recruiting a new band for the league, and with a little bit of good work from TS we got in touch with [B-Stard] and his band. Their former league master left the game after being hacked, so this band was looking for a new home. It looks like a good fit to me, and I'm looking forward to working with [B-Stard] on dungeon runs and epithets for the league.

On the down side though, this means that the Immortal_Fists are no longer a part of the league. Jiang and the few players he has left will always be welcome in the Disconnected League, but we really did need a more active bandmaster in order to keep the league running well. It's a little sad though, Immortal_Fists was one of the founding bands of the league.

The next problem to solve is changing out DoodleBug as the bandmaster of the other Heavenly Demon band. FantasyMage has volunteered to take that over and I'm hoping to contact a GM tonight to get that changed. Unfortunately DoodleBug quit so quickly that we didn't have time to make that change ourselves, but we will get it done.

Of course then I have to get back to work on my own band, and leveling up, and running dungeons, and get to the Tibet map, and it never really ends does it?

Edit: Ok, our second HD band is up and running again with FantasyMage as bandmaster.

- SpearDriver

DoodleBug, we need to talk man. I can understand that you're upset with Acclaim for a few things. I think we're all upset with them from time to time, but I need your help with your band and if you're going to leave the game let's please try to get a strong, adult player into the position of bandmaster. I would sure like to hear your opinion as to who that should be.

In other news I am recruiting for a new Heavenly Demon band to join us in the Disconnected League. As I'm sure most of you know we're a fun league of grinders and not really involved in the PvP part of this game. We're mostly adult players and would like to have the same sort join us. There are quite a number of higher level players who can help with dungeon runs for epithets, quests, and loot. We also have a league storage account with any number of useful items, including relics, manuals, clothes, etc.

If you're the bandmaster of a Heavenly Demon band, and you're looking for a new home, please get in touch with me in game or you can post here in the comments section. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
