Hi all,
I was helping some GR 1 players today get the hang of the game and I didn’t realize how intimidating it can be at first especially when you first start questing online so i’m posting this for anyone who is just starting out on WKC and hopefully I can answer any questions you may have concerning questing, adding friends and so forth.
A couple of things worth mentioning is when you start taking on quests for the first time online you should not try to solo them, it may well prove too difficult so early on and it may end up losing your interest and this game deserves the play time, it’s a great game and how you start out depends on whether it’s an enjoyable experience or not.
Also when you finish a quest always pop back to a room or your town and repair your armor and weapon as it gets damaged during battle, this may seem logical but I didn’t even realize this until I was at GR 2, no wonder I was dying so much,lol.
Anyway if you have any questions just post them here and i’ll try and answer them within a few hours for you. Thanks to Idra who is GR 1 and stuck with me until the end of the quest and received the benefits of a B rank and accompanying items and GR points, well done.

Wow I just can’t seem to get the few items that I need. I know the rare item drops are supposed to be 1% but you would normally expect one every now and then. I’ve played Station Attendant 107 times now and never had the turret drop or the mask+ which kind of tells you the percentage is even lower than 1%
1% generally means you may have to play the quest 100 times to get the drop although most times you wouldn’t have to play that many to get it, 107 times without either of the two drops definitely makes it less than 1% unless your supposed to play it 100 straight which is virtually impossible, not sure why they made the rare drops a little too rare, 5% would have still been hard but at least you could have eventually guaranteed the drop.
Just lately i’ve had players looking at my gear and saying things like “why do you have that sword” or “how come your still wearing GR10 stuff?” well to me it’s pretty obvious that i’m using inferior stuff for a reason, not because I want to but because I still haven’t managed to get the items needed to upgrade.
I’ve also noticed that a lot of players have dropped away from this great game and the only way to guarantee playing quests is to enter a room, I started playing rooms this week and I could always find a quest, even it wasn’t one I needed. Weekends are still popular and I hope more players start getting WKC or it looks like I may just miss the platinum trophy.

Yes it’s been pretty cool since turning Guild Rank 13, much better items in the general store now thanks to having more room in my town and getting better stats.
I’m going for all of the Shadow armor set which has been difficult up to now but with the opening of another 4 quests two of which actually give drops needed for some of the armor. Still need some rare items to create a better sword but until then i’m stuck with the Devilbringer sword which has been good but it’s a bit worn now if you know what I mean, everyone else at GR13 is going around with Demon blade or Witchblade.
It’s the Witchblade i’m eventually after as it happens to be the best Katana in the game with a starting attack of 182 which is pretty awesome, enhance that baby 10 times and you’ve really got yourself a weapon.
Before I get to the Witchblade i’ve got to get other swords first to combine them to make better swords and eventually get to the Witchblade.
I can’t believe how this game has completely taken over from all other games that I should be playing, I really haven’t touched another game since starting white knight chronicles, it’s so addictive in a good way. Happy questing:)

Yes I indeed made it to GR13, spent from 9pm until 2:30am (about 5hrs) and hit the all important milestone of white knight chronicles. Well it was to me.
I was a little disappointed at first because it cost me 400K to upgrade my geotown and the small square it gave me was only able to hold another two small houses. Disappointment went away after realizing that they gave me two new houses available for purchase which allows you to house 3 residents instead of the usual 2.
I’m seeing many new types of armor now and even though I could get shadow armor before I never could get hold of the right stuff, now I have the shadow trousers and the main part of the shadow armor. I am looking for the whole shadow armor set and the strongest Katana in the game, these are not the most powerful items in the game but together they go with my character name ( assassin ), look cool and are pretty powerful once upgraded.
I now have two towns and this is a pretty cool tip if you didn’t realize it before : I set up my town with warriors, mages and miners, got the stats to 40-40-40 giving you most items possible in the general store, then uploaded this town to geonet.
Then I made another town with chefs, farmers and lumberjacks, got this town to 40-40-40 ish but didn’t upload this town. So now I have two towns, one online and one offline, this covers all six trades and gives you maximum items possible.
This also means you don’t have to visit other towns to get items you don’t have, saving you guilder because you always pay more in someone else’s town, cool eh?
Now i’m going to be concentrating on upgrading weapons and armor so I am more of an equal when supporting other players of the same rank and higher, at the moment for GR13 I am quite weak although I try to make up for this by healing when possible and adding speed and attack boosts to the party of 4
Will keep updating as I play along and work towards that final GR 15 and yes i’m still willing to drop down to lower grade quests to help get S ranks if you need the help so just let me know.

A new slant on WKC |
ByI’ve noticed on White Knight Chronicles this past week or so that they have started to add new sets of armor, this coincides with the new quests available as the stuff you need for the new armor is in the new quests which makes for fresher content. This really keeps the game fresh and the fact that the quests actually get harder makes for more fun.
I’m still about 3 million off Guild Rank 13 but should hit that in a few days as i’m back to messing around with my geo town. I’m stuck on about 5 different weapons and armor needing upgrades and no matter how often I do the quests the damn things won’t drop those rare items that I need so am looking at trying to get them in my shop, it’s not looking promising though.
With almost 1,000 hrs on this game it still keeps me interested, you’d think it would get boring but it doesn’t, it is one amazing game, I just hope I can complete it before WKC 2 gets here, lol

5th Re-birth at WKC |
ByAfter reaching the infamous Guild Rank 12 I decided to rebirth for the 5th time in this game. This was so that I could maximize the skill tree. I decided to max out the longsword skill as usual and the divine magic skill. With the rest of my points i’ve spread them out at 32% equally between most of the other skills so as to get maximum health and mp.
I’m now back at level 49 with the hope to hit level 50 tomorrow so I can get back into my valiant armor which hopefully should put my health up to around 1,000HP and give me around 400MP
The only regret I had rebirthing this time was as soon as I did rebirth they put a couple more new quests in so I can’t wait to have a go at those once I get back to level 50.
I’m also going to attempt to reach Guild Rank 13 sometime next week so I can upgrade my Geo town as I really need some more trades there to get the gear I need to upgrade even more, i’ve still been looking a bit like a novice even against guild rank 12 players simply because I didn’t have my skills leveled out evenly and lack of knowledge of the elemental side of things but that’s about to change.
Still willing to help anyone that needs it and i’m also taking advice when others offer it and it’s still a great game. I just hope I can hit Guild Rank 15 before WKC 2 comes out. Happy questing:)

Made GR12 = WKC |
ByWhat a cool feeling, making Guild Rank 12. Sorry I didn’t post this two days ago when I actually made it but once again i’ve been caught up in this game.
It’s been interesting playing online these last couple of days, had a lot of help from a fellow player and I wish I could remember her name because now my attacks are much more powerful because I have now started to find out which creatures are weak against which elements and have started to enhance different weapons accordingly.
So if you think your seeing things when during a battle in WKC someone seems to change their weapon it is for real. There are several quests in which there are up to 4 or even 5 boss battles, some will be weak against water and others will be weak against fire. Because you can only enhance one weapon with one element it sometimes requires you to switch weapons.
Guild Rank 13 happens to be about 10 million more away from when you hit GR12 so it’s not too bad as GR12 opens up a bunch more new quests some of which give you over 60,000 GR points. I’ve just been questing for items to upgrade and i’ve already hit two million since GR12. Hopefully i’ll be at GR13 by the time my birthday gets here on Monday.
Another huge shock for me was when loading up the game last night I noticed my save game was showing 750 hours play time, that’s unreal. It actually means i’ve spent more time on this game than I did on Morrowind and Oblivion put together and i’ve still got another three guild rank levels. That is awesome playability.
