The NEW EVENT IN Lineage II

[The*Raven]

Handy's Block Checker

 

The Gracia Final expansion brought a new game to Fantasy Island called Handy's Block Checker.

 

To get to the arena, from the Fantasy Isle Gatekeeper, turn yourself North until you see an area with a big golden Spade on a red building. This red building is the Handy's Block Checker Arena.

 

 

You will be greeted by the Game Manager 'Handy'.

 

Handy will tell you about the game and how you can participate.

 

To start, register at one of the the four Entrance Managers (one for each Arena). There needs to be at least 2 particpants on each side to start.

Once four players signed up, the game starts automatically (which makes me wonder how 6 people in total can join considering you can't join after it's started). You get put into a transformed state according to the color of the team you are on. The score and count down timer is listed at the top.

 

 

The idea of the game is to flip over the squares that are oposite of your color, using the skill called "Flip Block" (the one and only skill you can use at the time. By doing this, it turns into your color. The more squares that are your color, the better chances your team will become the winners.

 

The squares gives drops of "bond" and "landmine". I wasn't able to figure out what the bond did as it wasn't anything that seemed to go into your inventory. However, Landmine did appear in your inventory which allows you to use it before flipping a square which will give the other team a state of stun when they attempt to flip the same square (from what I can gather, it all happens so quickly ;)

In our case, the winners obtained 10 fantasy island coins, where the losers obtained 2, but this can vary depending on the amount of squares turned over by each individual. You can see what you can do with the coins.

Buffs disappear once you get transformed, but reappear after the transformed state wears off.[/b]

2. Once you have requested entry into Kratei's Cube (through the Entrance Manager), you will be moved into a waiting room 3 minutes before the match begins.

3. You can receive Kill Points through PvP and PvE inside Kratei's Cube. Even if a character is killed, there is no death penalty.

3. You are ineligible to receive any reward if you score less than 10 Kill Points.

4. Fantasy Isle coins can be exchanged for various items through NPC Paddies of Fantasy Isle.

 

Leaving During a Match

 

You will be removed from the registration list and/or will be ineligible for any rewards for the following reasons:

1. If you request to participate in a match, enter the waiting room, and then cancel the match through the Kratei's Cube Match Manager and leave.

2. If you use a Scroll of Escape for a village, castle, hideout or fortress during a match.

3. If you die during a match and do not return through the Entrance Manager (meaning that you do not complete the match).

The Underground Coliseum

 

 

An Underground Coliseum where you can enjoy a new style of PvP (death match) has been added. You can travel to the Underground Coliseum free of charge via the Fantasy Isle teleport NPC and non-newbie town teleport NPCs.

 

Registering for the Games

 

You can register to participate in the games at any time, and as often as you like. There is no time restriction.

After you form a party consisting of at least seven members, the party leader can register for the games via the Arena Manager NPC, Coordinator Kuram.

The games occur in the order and frequency in which teams register for them. Only five teams can be registered at any given time.

 

About the Games

 

The games are death-match style and the winning team continues on to battle against the next team of contenders.

Before the party leader registers his or her team, the party leader and all party members must decide where their individual starting location will be when the battle begins by adjusting their order in the party window. The order directly affects where each member will begin the battle when they are teleported into the coliseum. Team members who are best at solo matches should be placed towards the top of the party member list.

 

Once the game begins, a resurrection tower will appear in the coliseum. When a player is killed, he or she will join the match again near the resurrection tower.

If the resurrection tower is destroyed, you cannot automatically resurrect inside the coliseum; however, you can still resurrect inside the coliseum by using a resurrection skill or item.

Each match lasts for 10 minutes.

 

Win/Lose Conditions

 

Victory in a game is determined by the number of kills.

If the opposing team has the same kill count, then the team with fewer deaths is the victor.

If both teams have the exact same number of points, the first team to have registered for the game will be deemed the victor.

You can also win before the end of a match by destroying all of the opposing team's members.

 

Types of Coliseums

 

There are five arenas in total. Participation in each arena is based on level. Every party member must be within the level limits in order for the team to register successfully. The arena levels are as follows:

 

* Levels 40-49

* Levels 50-59

* Levels 60-69

* Levels 70-79

* No level limit game
