Granado Girl: The Futel Family in Granado Espada SEA

Mom's head is heating up >. Since the Colony War last night, our family has been experiencing login issues. ~~TIMELINE~~ May 25 Around 5pm - Irawan, Catherine & Seanne Grinding their way to become vets in Topolo Durga & Island of Fire Zone 2 Cannot enter Channel 1, but channel 2 works fine. Around 7pm - Irawan, Catherine & Seanne Buying & selling in City of Auch channel 2 tried changing channels but got stucked logged out, then tried logging in said that our account was logged in in another computer - it may take 3 minutes to log-in again. ~~waited patiently~~ Around 7:55pm - Raven, Christianne & Matthieu Tried going in City of Auch channel 1 got stuck in the barracks logged out and waited and waited. Tried logging in my brother Nutrients' family's account worked fine in both channel 1 & 2 *sighs deeply* During Colony War - 8PM to 10PM, Raven, Christianne & Matthieu warped to El Tejado Verde, changed channel to channel 1 - success! got the col...

Krizzie here. I can't let my babies blog for now...I mean, I want to type this myself since they have nothing to do with it. They cheer me up - but I do not know why I feel so sad for the past few days. Because of the rain? I dunno. Anyways, most of the time I leave Seanne, Irawan and Catherine grinding by themselves. I just look at them from time to time and resume my work. It feels a lot different when I grinded my three first borns, Raven, Christianne and Matthieu, without a Combat Manual, all by myself. And finishing quests in between. And spoiling them with the best equipments and weapons that I could afford. But now, I leave Cath, Irawan and Seanne by themselves, with a combat manual. Although I still do spoil them with Elites & ++ weapons, still, it feels a lot different now. I don't know. The past few days, I have been down; I feel empty. I don't know why. I know that whatever I am feeling now isn't connected to Granado Espada, and in ways, GE helps me allev...

Mom's going crazy. First, up to 4pm. Then 5pm. then now, 10pm? Oh gawd. Pwnage. IAH Games should learn to give out game service news which are NOT extended. THEIR FIRST GAME SERVICE NEWS SHOULD BE UNTIL 10PM IN THE FIRST PLACE SO THAT THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO KEEP ON EXTENDING. IF IN ANY CASE THEIR WORK GETS DONE EARLIER, THEN IT'S A PLUS FOR THEM TO SAY THAT SERVERS ARE UP AND THEY ARE AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. I t's more frustrating to read game service news full of extensions. Really. It pisses off gamers. Like Mom. :( Look at it this way: They could give a release that Maintenance for today will take a full 20 hours IN THE FIRST PLACE. Then they can give a release that IT WAS FINISHED EARLIER than expected so that gamers aren't exasperated. Right? Right. It's a better press release for them - and better feedback. That way, stakeholders will say that OH, TEAM GE IS ALWAYS AHEAD OF TIME - THEY DO NOT EXTEND, instead of saying I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THE MAINTENANCE IS ...

How shall I help? :D Catherine Torsche here. But since my father told me I can join the Futels, my name is now Catherine Futel. I summon puppets for the family - with Walter, Lloyd, Sasha, Helena and Victor . I use the stance called Marionette. I never attack enemies and mobs - my dolls do it for me. I was only Level 1 when the Futels took me in, but now, with Irawan, I am halfway to become a veteran - at level 50 :) That's Seanne, Irawan (behind) and Me, grinding in the Tetra Ruins. ^^ A solo picture of Irawan - I admit he is a cutie, the Muay Thai fighter :) Raven said I could blog for now. I guess she'll be letting Irawan blog the next time. So this is blogging - it's a fun change from controlling puppets. It's our rest day. But not on the usual day. Maintenance was set today for 0400 to 1600 hours. That's 12 whole hours. Mom (wee! I have a Mom ^^) turned off her laptop at around 3am this morning, whitwew and just turned it on now so that I can blog. Raven and th...

I believe I've summed this blog in the title . Pft. We just got back from the Colony Wars in Granado Espada - and boy, are we exhausted. Though Matthieu, Christianne and I are already veterans, we still have a long way to grind and go and get before we can be truly pioneers. I mean, strong pioneers. Tonight's colony wars are one good example. A few days ago, IDeaD messaged us regarding our faction, Aggressors. He said that our faction is weak - which I totally disagreed. Mom even made fun of IDeaD's english - boy, was she ever mad. Mommy blocked IDeaD in GE so that he cannot message us anymore. True enough, PKs, Colonies and such are not the measurements of a faction's strength. Say hello to the Treasure Golem: [Tried to] Defend the Colony of El Tejado Verde!! Why do you join factions? Because of the colony buff? The family buff? M om joined Aggressors because of MEETING NEW FRIENDS and HAVING FUN. Isn't that the main reason why you play MMORPGS? To have fun and enj...

I AM A VETERAN!!! As I type, I am a vet now. Matthieu and Christianne are close - 80++%. The Island of Fire really made grinding easy. Weehee :) Thanks, CrewOfAngels, Daemonic, Oliviera and those who were willing to squad us in Zone 1 & 2 :) Grinding love: The Island of Fire Crabs & Starfishes T hanks also to Jean, Angela & Rose CrewOfAngels for lending us their Elite Equipments XD Elite Kaladbolg & 2 Elite Mustang Spiders! Thanks, sisters :) Raven, Matthieu, Christianne, Jean, Angela and Rose Err, I forgot who these are but one of the families here is oread's family ahahaha Anyways, everyone's prepping up to colony war. Just now, Mom had us run around the New World to save warp points in key colonies. Teehee. Oh yeah. Mommy crafted our family's first Elite - an Elite Camisa de Soldado for me!!! :) I love you Mom!! You're the best!!! XD Next in line is an Elite Striform and Elite Laranja e Preto! Weehee!!! :0 Happy happy days ;) *now we're broke haha...

I do not know what has gotten into Mommy but she spent a LOT today, both in-game and in real life :D But I'd blog about the in-game instead. In chipping, enhancing, enchanting and shopping, we spent I guess around 60m or something like that. But then in the end, we still decided to stick to our former duds. HAHAHA. Why? Because those we bought from Andre Janzur, enhanced to +5 and given stats were err, lower than my current Knights of the Templar and Christianne's +6 Ring Mail or +5 Rescue Knights Suit. It was only Matthieu who changed his look - trashing the +5 Striform to a +5 Corsair Rosso :D He looks so formal. Haha. Oh yeah, and I had a bob haircut too!!!! WEEHEE!! Finally Mom, you decided to get me a new haircut and haircolor!!! XD So what did we do with those things? Mommy played photographer and we are her willing victims (ho-hum, Mom) so here are the results XD On Raven: +5 Gladiator's Armor and Gladiator's Hat On Christianne: +5 Capezzolo de Pericolo and Peric...

*Sigh* It's been sometime since I last blogged here because my sister and brother hoarded my blog. Hehe. Nope, Matty and Christianne - I still love you both. I'm really not a selfish sister >. shopping spree in MOA > MALL OF AUCH. HAHAHAHA >. +5 Knights of Templar, +5 Rescue Suit with 14 HP%and bought Matty new pistols - Claude Baudez Niques (2 of which was apparently broken by Vicente Rio the Enchantmentor, ho hum) But then Mommy's in-game twin sister, CrewOfAngels, gave her a +5 Ring Mail Def 15, Evasion 14. Me & CrewOfAngels' family ;) N ow even Christianne is confused. Weehee. But see this > the DR of the Ring Mail is higher than that of the rescue suit. Maybe cuz it's +6? :D This one? or Of course, now Christianne is using the +6 Ring Mail because of the higher AR and DEF but then don't you think the Rescue Suit looks much cuter? Haha. Whatever. Even I have some new duds c/o the ScofIeld family >. People in Granado Espada have been s...

I get to write this time! Yahoo! Christianne the scout here . As you all know, my dearest brother and sister have wrote in this blog - now Mom told them that I get to write this time! HAHAHA. I just want to share some thoughts when Mom topped up a hella lot GPoints last week. As you all know, Gpoints, or GP, the currency in Granado Espada for Premium Items are very expensive in the Philippines T.T (Don't ask me why; that's just the way it is.) Cards range from 50 pesos to 750 pesos. GP Equivalents 50 Pesos - 750 GP 100 Pesos - 1800 GP 300 Pesos - 5800 GP 750 Pesos - 18000 GP So obviously the higher you go, the cheaper 1GP=peso is. Here's the computation of 1GP to Peso and vice versa. 50 pesos >>> 1 peso = 15 GP or 1GP = .067 pesos 100 pesos >>> 1 peso = 18 GP or 1GP = .056 pesos 300 pesos >>> 1 peso = 19.33 GP or 1 GP = .052 pesos 750 pesos >>> 1 peso = 24 GP or 1GP = .042 pesos Also, the higher you go, more and more Adelina's Booty S...

Haha. Matthieu the Musketeer here. For a change, lemme blog here in my spoiled-brat-of-a-sister's blog. Mom spoiled her too much, really, just because she's the first-born girl? Grr. Whatever. OK, sorry, Ma. Happy Mom's Day *wink wink* Lemme type sum things as Raven grinds and Mom waits for Dad's call. Hey Dad, uh, can you like, hurry up calling because Mom's going crazy. 'Nuf of that. We had our first colony war - in the family, that is. When we were with the Dark Knights, we were never active in going to CWs - and ever since khant got into an accident and never logged in GE again, we never tried owning a colony. So obviously, the girls were excited to go to CW. Heck, Raven, being the leader that time, pressed the wrong buttong and bought 30 pieces of High-level Valkyrie. Sheesh. Mom's head got dizzy haha I just know it. So yep, we had our first colony war with the Aggressors . Too bad my sisters and I are only Level 79 - we can't help much but to su...

Because Mommy doesn't have anything to do other than wait for her intership abroad, manage her online business and play Granado Esapada, she was topping up G-Points for us so we can use combat manuals. What are combat manuals? B asically, combat manuals are items which increase your EXP as you grind. There are three kinds of manuals: Beginner, Average and Expert. They increase your EXP by 50%, 80% or 100%, respectively. Are combat manuals expensive? E rr, it actually depends on your preference of expensive :) Teehee. No actually, they are not. With 1-day Combat Manuals, you get to grind all you want at a low price of only 200 GP for the Average and 320 GP for the Expert. Not bad for starters huh? How are they used? Y ou simply open up your Premium Items window, click to Misc, then double click your Combat Manual. You'd instantly have a buff of your manual. You click on the Combat Manual in Misc and you'd have the buff on top of your character's heads. Easy, peasy, righ...

My Mom's a feminist - and I guess it was passed on to us, her Granado babies. Whenever we're in Granado Espada, I'd always be pissed off whenever people call us pare, tol, dude et al whenever we pass by. Matthieu doesn't seem to mind it though - of course duh, he's a guy. A male musketeer. But Christianne and me? Spell irritated. That's why I was so happy - Christianne and Mom, included - when Ictus from the Hellraiders Faction messaged me when we were looking for an Acceleration ring. And she called Mom " MISS " instead of "PARE" or "SIR" Wee! Was Mom surprised. No she isn't looking for our dad - our dad is in Valle Verde. She was just looking for rings to give to Christianne the Scout. Mom's a spoiler. Since we got rich. Ho-hum. I guess Ictus read our family's profile when he was messaging Mommy. LOL. Anywho, since Mom doesn't do anything much, our family willbe joining Veya's Challenge to make a name &...

OMG OMG OMG OMG I cannot believe that the Steel Spirit Stone costs THAT much. Waah. Mom was soooo overwhelmed when she started broading - and we all thought that it only cost us like, around 50 million Vis or whatever but what the heck... Axenstar messaged Mom in-game and he began lecturing her on how rare the SSS is ...While me and my brother and sister ran around the City of Auch while thinking of what to do. So Axenstar told me that the minimum offer is a whopping 500 million Vis - yeah, I know Mommy was so shocked that she began seeing VIS in her eyes (hahaha, yeah right Mom.) So there we were, sooooo freaking shocked of this SSS. Wee. So the story: You break a rare item to get this rare item. Wee. Here's taken from the swordofthenewworldwiki.com ;) Q: Where can I find Steel Spirit Stone ? A: Throw an Elite 84 Steel Series item into anvil and you'll receive a Steel Spirit Stone. Q: What is Steel Series? A: Steel Series is a rare Elite 84 weapons. Pizzaro , Dragon Hunter...

As all GE players know, logging in since last week was hell. See this: As we transport back to the Barracks, GE hangs up - then you'd ended up logging out, only to find out that you cannot login back...darn. Client says you'd wait up to 3 minutes but heck, my Mom tried waiting for almost 30 minutes to log back in :( Whatever happened? I cannot believe Mommy woke up this early to go to Adelina's Booty Search - last night's logging in was terrible. I guess everybody was trying to log in to Adelina and find her booty and use their free 20 searches. Kudos to IAHGames for giving us free searches! But obviously because of the influx of players playing ABS last night, everyone had errors...hehe. So Mommy decided to wake up early just so she could help us find Adelina's booty. The only downside is that Mom didn't get anything much - pft. A couple of Soul Crystals, 10 Hermes Potions, Elites etc etc. Sigh. No Prized Booty. So she used her brother's account - an...

Weehee! Finally! My mommy Tin made me a Blogspot account. Apparently, she erased her other blogspots so she can focus on my own Blog! Yay! My brothers and sisters will be so jealous! (Though I believe they'd be typing their own blogs using this account, ho-hum, so consider it a whole blog of the Futel Family.) Anyways, I would like to introduce myself. My name's Raven and I was born a fighter - literally. I started pioneering alone in the Cite de Reboldeux around December of 2007 in the server of Vivaldi and then I was joined by my brother Matthieu, the Musketeer and my sister, Christianne, the scout. Matthieu shoots while Christianne heals and I, of course, slashes. Teehee. I have tons of brothers and sisters in the barracks like Seanne the Elementalist, Christine the Wizard ...oh and we have some friends who are with us, as well. Grace Bernelli, Emilia Guilano and Catherine the Summoner. They help our family much and I consider them sisters as well :) Of course, Mom still...
