About the quest/campaing Castle of Darkness: Guardian of Light

[Hypermusic]

Our ally tried today this campaign / siege. We've read what campaign says and site stuff. It says we gotta stop transportation Units, and then stop Revolutionaries at Rune. We tried to attack Goddard castle, however, not a single transportation Unit appeared. We broke castle gate and then went for Chamberlain of Darkness, tried to kill it with Revolutionary Weapons and with normal weapons; none of them worked. So, Sace, could you please explain us how this campaign / siege / event works exactly? It's still pretty confusing and we don't know what to do. Thank you very much.

lol

aden = first campaign other castles are worthless
rune = second campaign other castles are again worthless


only people that do care about the other castles are the people who are on dark side u need to stop stuff at either rune or aden and not in the other regions

im not even sure if the other castles have a real chamber lain or just the npc that cant die xD

The campaign only takes place at Aden and Rune. Anyone that is not a clan member with a castle of darkness can join in. If the tax campaign is successful then the castle of darkness will turn back into a neutral castle with NPCs. The other castles of darkness (if there are any) will not be able to collect their taxes if the main castle of darkness is light/neutral as far as I know.

Edit: Any castle of darkness can be reset during the campaign. (Thanks Raervin)

Thank you very much for the info, Juji. =)

Oh by the way, Juji, I got another question: if only Aden and Rune are available to be reseted, why is the Chamberlein of Darkness shown as a mob on other dark castles? I mean, we could break the doors and even hit that Chamberlein.

I believe for the Castle of Darkness Quests you can complete them at any castle of darkness. That is why you are able to destroy the doors and attack the Chamberlain of Darkness. I think if you do not own a Castle of Light then you cannot complete the Guardian of Light quest. I'll need to double-check and do some additional research on this.

That's the quest we took, Juji. 2 of the 3 clans of our alliance have a light castle, and Guardian of the Light is the quest we took from Captain of the Revolutionaries. So, wasn't it supposed to work on Goddard castle (which was our target during campaign / siege)

Interesting. I'll check tomorrow to see what's up with that. Did you already submit a support ticket?

[Hypermusic]

No I didn't 'cause I didn't think it was a bug, only that there was lacking information on website and / or on campaign description. Can you please update this Thread tomorrow after you check on what happened or something like that? We'd really like to understand this campaign fully.

Sure thing, but I suggest submitting a support ticket as well.

[Raervin]

Wow this is really beyond my comprehension how clueless the staff is and how more and more broken this game gets with each update.

Anyway here's some info. Every castle signed to dark CAN be reset during the campaign and it can be achieved by killing chamberlain NPC which has great amount of HP and requires great amount of dps to defeat.

Campaign itself is bugged like hell, it can't be completed on NCwest servers, only goal light castle owners can achieve is resetting dark castle to NPC.

Also going dark with castle other than aden or rune is pointless for their owners because collecting tax revenue is not working at all.

Indeed, you are correct

Any castle of darkness can be reset. The chamberlain NPC will be difficult to defeat since it is a high level mob.

100 people lv 94 95 96 97 98 mix Failed to take 1% down hp of that chamberlain .

Can you update us with some precise information's about this chamberlain .


1. Do all people need to use Rev weapons in order to kill it ? ( we tried had no effect ) or Normal weapons we use every day is same.

2. Are you saying this works as intended and we should try come back when we have 100 people lv 99 .

I am confused, everyone is confused . There is no single soul on shilien server who knows how to do this . Support ticket did not gave us any answer.

[BatRus]

Still nothing new about it ?
Did that chamberlain realy need 100+ 99lvl ppl to kill?

[Draecke]

plz login on Naia today and try kill Aden chamberlain, we can use the laugh

aka it's not just npc's you're dealing with but also the castle holding clan & their allies

[Rangur]

I made a post in "Player Questions" section of the forum about this campaign yesterday, asking for any guide or information, or even a link to a guide on some other forum. There was not a single answer.

Not only does noone seem to know how/if this campaign exactly works, it seems also noone cares. Maybe because all the other campaigns fail every single day and noone is doing them anymore.

problem isnt in defenders
problem is like Griffin wrote - 100 people lv 94 95 96 97 98 mix Failed to take 1% down hp of that chamberlain .
stilll lf info - maybe we need to do something before kill or just realy need 100 ppl 99+ lvl...

[Griffit]

I got so many bans on this forum for telling truth , i can bet i am gonna get ban again for saying 3 confirmed facts :


1. Dark chamberlain is BUGED , NCsoft is aware of problem and they working on fix in near future ( we all know WHEN that is gonna be never )

2. All Dark castle aspect Aden and Rune are Buged, Etc Tax rate money will not go in castle valut , so it is pointless to have dark castle if u are not aden rune owner. They are working on fix also

3. 3rd software users , have advantage of fast targeting and bla bla other things , and they tend to DC or to lag to death LEGAL players that are engaged in pvp vs them or any Group pve activity .

For this there is no working fix , you gotta manually make support tickets to get them banned , and we all know that just aint working


and

P.S

I really dont know why they keep this hidden from rest community.

/discuss

[BatRus]

Ty for answers Griffit, now i see situation

there is nothing to discuss, im also have bans and warnings for telling facts that all know around, so nothing new
and still no idea why GMs/Admins cover that ppl and hide truth/do nothing :/

Wanted to bump this, cause I remember readin' this and laughin' my butt off. It's totally true though.
