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.

ByYes i’ve decided to open up a category for this fairly large online multiplayer game. It grabbed my attention in the first place and now I can’t seem to put this one down.
Here’s a re-cap of what i’ve done and what i’m up to now, initially I played through this game 4 times, it didn’t get boring but at the same time it wasn’t doing much for my levels so i’ve decided to run through to the last section on the 5th time and hold off from completing the game again as there isn’t much point.
I managed to achieve a few of these trophies which are not so hard as they are time consuming, one trophy being awarded for achieving 10 million in gilder which in itself is going to take a fair while but not too bad once you start reaching the higher levels.
I’ve also managed to get my Guild Rank up to 8 (and i think it goes as high as 15 ) my character level is at 48 (max 50) and as soon as I reach level 50 I will do the reincarnate thing.
The thing that really keeps this game going is the online multiplayer quests which are fun to do and for a change I haven’t come across any idiots on this one like I did on versus, it’s been a pleasure to play online and almost impossible for me to achieve my S ranks if I had done some of these quests on my own.
You do have the option of playing the quests solo but if your thinking about it then you really should try the multiplayer option.
I’m now in the process of trying to bind weapons, armor, items etc..but more importantly (at least i think so) enhancing my weapons and armor, this can get quite difficult as the more you enhance a weapon the more rare items you need to enhance it more but it’s worth it.
Another fun aspect of this game is the ability to build your own town in what’s known as Georama, you can create it offline and upload it to the Geonet servers, other players can visit your town and you can visit theirs.
This town building is also worth having a go at because it doesn’t end, you get buildings, hire people or residents for the buildings, add scenery, trees, bushes, grapevines etc…but they are not just scenery, keep visiting your town and you’ll get rewarded with items you can dig up from a tree or a herb garden you’ve planted, some of your residents will give you stuff from time to time, it really is limitless.
Another great thing the developers have done is to offer new quests every couple of weeks, some quests will be permanent, others will only be temporary so you’ll have to complete them within a couple of week time frame or lose them forever, and they are free, they just appear whenever you sign in to play the multiplayer quests.
It’s definitely handy to have a keyboard or a headset or mic as the typing via the controller is slow and inconvenient, you really need a mic, the playstation eye works great, as you sometimes need to discuss strategy before running off to do a quest in multiplayer, I say this because with four players there is always several options and if you don’t communicate you could all end up running off in different directions and get no-where.
A good example is the “All in the cards” quest, I played this quest one time and no-one communicated and everyone ran after the troll they usually go for and there are about 8 on this quest. Another time I played and we just said a few words to each other which meant we all knew to go after the troll king on the south side of the area which resulted in an S rank in pretty quick time because all four of us took this beast down together, it works really well.
Ok enough for now, i’ll keep adding posts to this to show my progress, i’m leaving other games alone right now as i’m really enjoying this game and I think i’ll be on this one for at least another month, probably longer.
If anyone wants to join me, I don’t mind helping anyone who wants to try to achieve S ranks on their quests, or we can just grind for a few to get our levels up, you can visit my hometown that i’ve started to build on Georama or post here.
My username as always is Knightofthe9, just in case you can’t find me with that my characters name is assassin.

Ok i’ll admit it, i’m hooked on this one, the disappointment in how short the game was has been replaced by the fact that you get some real enjoyment out of playing through this rpg several times.
I’m on my fourth trip through the game as i’m trying to get my levels up to 50 so I can enter the quests which require level 40 and above.
I won’t be completing the game for the fourth time as i’ll spend most of the time maxing out my levels on the last area but one, this way I leave all the unlockable areas open.
I’m also looking at playing online over the next few days, there are quests you can choose to do alone or with multiplayer, my guild rank is only 3 and I noticed a lot of players complaining because the higher ranks won’t play with them, which is why i’m writing this post.
If anyone wants to join me on some quests send me a message, my world id is knightofthe9 as always, i’m almost always signed in but that doesn’t mean i’m actually playing but i’m mostly on in the evenings for about 5 or 6 hrs and i’m GMT – 5 if you can work that one out,lol.
I have started my geo town and believe i’ve only scratched the surface of what can be done here, i’ve got 4 houses each with two residents and some shops, I haven’t found out how everything works so if your willing to help each other i’m your player.
One thing I don’t know about is how to change my main character for playing quests, I would like the option to do the quests using leonard but it always picks another character, is there a way to change this?
So far i’ve got 10% of the trophies and these are going to be harder than most games simply because they take a long time, if your just going for trophies this could get boring, i’m a trophy hunter myself but it really helps if you enjoy this type of game, one trophy is to aquire 10 million in gold and even though i’ve completed the game 3 times now I still only have 100k so that gives you some idea of the time you’ll spend on this if you want all the trophies.
This is another reason i’m looking to play online with others, hopefully it will add some fun and seem less tedious for the trophy hunt, I don’t see me getting bored with it any time soon, and with the added quests which are being added every couple of weeks it should add lots more playability to the game, some quests will be permanent ones and some temp quests which will only be available for two weeks at a times so keep your eye out for those, you’ll need to be signed in for them to show up.
That’s about it for now, feel free to post here or catch me on the geo network.
Tony 🙂
Update:
Wow this takes a long time to get your levels up, i’m at level 41 now and Guild Rank 5, i’m re-doing the big red quest to get my rank up to 7 so I can use the more powerful weapons then i’ll go for getting level 50, I was hoping to have been there by now so that I could have entered the higher quests for the chance to win one of the figurines this weekend but that isn’t going to happen now, hope they do something like that again.
Remember i’m always willing to help out lower level players complete some online quests, just let me know.
Tony 🙂
Second Update:
Well I decided to give multiplayer a go today and it was great, first time I tried the “all in the cards” quest a player called Fran joined me and thanks to the way that played out I found it to be quite fun, decided to give it another go and 3 other playes joined me which gave me an S rank, I would have never got that on my own, it’s a shame I didn’t get those names as I would have liked to thank those players too.
I’m now at level 43 and guild rank 7, rank 8 is going to be a long haul, can’t believe some players are at rank 12.
I’m doing something wrong though here as my attack with the ornate longsword is only hitting around 67, but I noticed other players were hitting with over 200, i’m guessing it’s because of the higher levels, i’m still not sure about the binding but i’ll keep at it and experiment, if anyone has any help for me please let me know and if anyone needs any help if I can I will.
Tony :)
