ok so I never post on the forums, this being my first D: but I just had to post this x.x
Me and my party were doing castle runs and this was our 4th one. I go in and the first floor just happens to be a quest floor for me :D (woot right).
That floor was a breeze, But then we get the fun and joy of have a "dark present" floor. which is a floor with about 10 treasure chest that you have to open for you to advance. In the "wrong" chests are about 20 zombies that have a special (AoE) that will pretty much 1-hit anyone who isnt competely scrolled or charmed to the point where they have 5k hp or a ton of defense.Now our party had the luck where when we lure one zombie more would come and when we opened a chest the person who opened them would get chased by all the zombies.Then the next floor was a "dark coffin" floor same thing as before only there was less coffins then chests about 7.We had the luck of having to open 14 of the total 17.
The next floor was a bunch of orcs who like the zombies had a 1hit ko, but lucky theirs wasnt as bad and i only died once before we finished that floor.When we did finish it however the doored glitched and wouldnt open. we searched the pervious floors for a monster but couldnt find one. Then out of nowhere an orc spawns behind one of our party members and 1hits her (lawls).
I feel really bad for our tank and one of our mages because our tank who had a full set of scrolls T3 scrolls on each time died about 15 times and our mage died about 25 times :\. I being the cleric died 10 times which is more times then ive ever died on that character. I lost 10% of my level which was only 1% less then what the quest gave. And at the end of the castle the treasure boxes contained nothing x.x...I also had the luck of my skills stop working randomly in the castle. 2 hours wasted, oh why did we not just reset D:
Although I understand the special aoe on monsters I highly think it is useless for them to be 1hit ko's it makes my job as a cleric useless, 2k dmg i could live with, also two glitches that 1) skills stop working at random times (i think when your behind a crystal). 2) a monster spawning 5mins after everything else in the floor has died.
sorry for any mistakes in my grammar but it's late here and I'm falling asleep. Goodnight.

Harsh, but hey it could have been worse. It could have been like my duo archer CC run.
We got dark coffin, chest, large bats, normal bats, orcs, orcs with commander, stonies, ores and skeleton archers, did I mention we litterally openned ALL the chests before we got the right one? ^-^ Things can always be worse. I was the lucky one of the duo, only losing 10% or so, my partner lost over 20%. Fun Amirite? ;D
My current list of monsters that easily deal 5k+ m.dmg :
Vampire bats (Normal bats can't 1 hit most players)
Big (magic immunized) vampire bats
Fugitive orcs (chaser orcs have AoE, but usually doesn't 1 hit people @-o)
Commander Fugitive orcs
Gigantic lips
Zombies
So we missed ONE floor of 1 hit monsters. ^^ Yes, we duo'ed it, in 3 hours. Worth it? I think not. <<;

The first time I went in a party, we died several times especially on the floor with coffins.. We were so happy! woot coffins with treasures but damn! It was a trick. A zombie hit me 1k skill full charmed and I was like *** ! I was at 3k+ defense.. All members opened up the coffins and around 20+ zombies hit us lol ! Instant death. It was fun nonetheless for first trial and the boss is way easier than the iron golem or GoC. Then 2nd time I went in, I soloed all the way because I was trying to find the lvl 65 blues but no luck so far :< To be honest, the castle is not that bad but the tanker needs to charm and then you have to run away from zombie etc spawn then kill them in small groups. I haven't got killed in 1 hit yet by 1 mob.. Nova is awesome in a party.. I think a godly mage would have it easy to solo all the way.. Just my opinion xD PS: the castle is a good place to farm LQ and HQ slime jelly.

lol today must be a bad Crystal Castle day. I had similar experience tonight. First two runs were a breeze. Then came the run from hell.
We got the Coffins and after it spawned Zombies, they ALL came for me, then the other Chests were wrong and it kept spawning the Zombies and I could barely get out before they saw me. Turns out the correct Chest was the second to last one we opened -.-
Then we got the Chests. And more Zombies. -.- After several wrong choices and killing lots of mobs, we get down to the last 2 zombies and out of the blue I died. From 2 Zombies!! WTH?? Of course once again the correct Coffin was like the second to last. >.>
Finally, we get to the Crystal Golem and kill him no problem. The Treasure Chests spawn, I start opening them and then.....my partner dc's and I got kicked out of the Castle. Lovely. I knew I should have partied my vender shop too! lol
That was the strangest Castle run I have had yet. I solo it no problem, I duo it with a mage no problem, but after that run, we both decided that today OS hates us.

Woah... When we have the coffin (zombie) floor, somebody opens the coffin and quickly runs down.. Then we lure zombies 1 by 1 XD.

ugh i haven't died once except when i lag too much but even my 2.7k def cant ignore their attcks. -.- im hating being a cleric cuz now i feel my heals aint enough. Plz nerf monsters dmg or their def or at least raise exp on quests to make it worth it. I'd be nice if blues were not statless, go figure.
Q(*o*Q) come on OS!

And i say no. The castle is perfect the way it is.

I agree. I like it more than the tower, because it's not boring =). Seriously. I like it =D. I've completed it like 25 times now and I'm still not bored <3.

depends on the group you bring in with you. some people don't have the armor nor the build like you do. my point is that other people aren't like your character is.
