Korean Test Server - Lich First Encounter
Lineage Playforum made a report (http://community.playforum.net:8080/bbs/prog/column?action=read&iid=10051004&kid=3223) about Bopvqod, the first player on the Korean Test servers known to have seen the Lich and survived..

When he saw the Lich, he was level 43 with -63 AC. However, that is not the beginning of the story. He started at level 47, and the journey to Lich stripped him of 4 levels! He was able to get three Omen 6f tele Scroll drops through hunting, but he died on each attempt. Finally, with his fourth scroll (at a cost of 500k), he was able to make it to the 10th floor.

On the 10th floor, there were DV skels and Bone Dragon, but he used random teleports until he saw the Lich (people had previously claimed Lich did not spawn, but I guess this proves otherwise).

He took 170 clears with him to start with and ended up using 136 of them to kill the Lich. His first hit took 200HP away. He used a +9 Tsu and had 2 of the +10% MR rings equipped. Lich dropped bzel, bdai, pm, kat, 2hs. The player commented that it was very much like Beleth in term of drops, but like Succubus Queen in terms of strength (a Succubus Queen that would not die, obviously).

His opinion on Omen's tower in general is that the monsters should be made stronger instead of having this 1-hit-kill attack. He also mentioned that he felt that dire wolf was the strongest of the 1-hit-kill monsters.

getting to the boss is a whole new story
I was expecting Lich to drop a new item

and u get the common stuff other bosses drop
I expected better
than again
this is korean test server
things can always be changed

Geez. Lost 4 lvls!!! Gonna be very hard to group hunt there. But it looks like the scrolls drop pretty common if he was able to get 3 by hunting. Gonna be hella hard for us that don't have +9tsu's, -63ac, and 2 10%mr rings.... Terrible drops for the amount of exp lost! I agree about making the monsters stronger and not having the stupid 1 hit kill attacks. Gonna discourage a lot of players from hunting there. I know if I lost 4 lvls in 1 hunt I'd prolly put my fist through my monitor... But that's just me. =)
I'm glad there's new hunting grounds and that they're a challenge. I just think they might have made it a lil tooooo challenging. Only 1 way to find out. That's to wait and see for ourselves. Still waiting for Aden siege video...

~K~

Viva NC!!!!!!

I agree this one hit kill stuff is for the birds. Just make the monster harder. What can you do to defend against one hit kill? I, for one, wont lose 4 levels (!) for 1M@ worth of scrolls. He probably spent 300-400k in pots on all those trips too! Gak!
Other than that ep. XII looks awesome, cant wait!

Man, that's pretty lame. Who the hell wants to go to Oman tower if everything there can kill you in one hit? Stupid.

I don't understand why he used +9 tsu and not +9 mb. First of all, isn't Lich undead? Second, how did he hit Lich at level 43 WITHOUT a mailbreaker? o.o

Anyway, good job getting a screenshot. =P

I thought only the cube, lesser dragon and bone dragon had the one-hit-kill thing
that is pretty silly if common mops all have it
fighting the mops is harder than fighting the boss...lol

think NC should reconsider the one-hit-kill and just make them stronger as the guy said

mmm.... not such a good boss lol
no good items earned after the scroll and pots he used....
unless it drops some kinda special ring or.... staff.... books... mage stuff o.o; since it's a wizard~
a Succubus Queen that doesn't die.... scary lol
1 hit killed..... impossible -_-; i rather they make the monsters harder by cursing players like by using cancelation or other spells on players ~
