Most of the Menaced town part of the Quest

The Iron hands event with the new weapons in 2016 was probably one of the last events I ever got the mark for successfully as an unmarked ilsan warrior.

(ilsan and unmarked wasnt something I planned on -- there was no one else at ilsan to hunt with, but plenty more people to hunt with in Courtyard, so I never bothered with the mark.)

This part kinda sucked, someone posted a recipe for all the posts which they figured out pretty quickly. Admittedly I had done the event at the worst possible time; off peak hours, when almost everyone had already done the quest.


This way the quest items needed were abundant and plentiful and weren’t overpriced, but this also meant there would be no one to hunt with.

To get around not having people to hunt with, I would log in and out around monsters with one warrior, and paralyze and invoke on another character; Two of my characters were the same event cave. I was absolutely lucky with that.

There was also a giant spider in the middle of the map that also did a ton of damage to anyone unlucky to stand next to it; I hated this map a lot.

There was also a bunch of clicking and pop up reading which didnt help with the other mobs present. I remember quitting to repara and move mobs away , I dont remember nearly dying however.

Here’s another map from the event.

And this was the near end of the event maps, the order of which I mostly forgot.

I remember this being really significant; the sip san sear blade was planned to do a lot of damage but could never be used.

Asmodi sort of runs his mouth on how important it is here.

I think this is where its being made ^

And this ^ is the second final text box where he assumes the iron hands will be back. Keep in mind, this was July 2016.


I have a lot of experience with trying to “get around” the problems nexus usually has, but I’d rather play a game where I’m not forced to use that kind of “second-thinking” in order to get around mechanics that involve scores upon scores of other people to play the game with.


I like the return of the iron hands as well; theyre far more interesting than recycling the zibong, sagu, sonhi , blight, forsaken, or mupa events; mostly because they’re NEW villains and not old ones.


So thats mostly all I have to say on the iron hand event from July 2016;

1) I did it late

2) I did it when the prices for items weren’t enormous

3) I did it alone


But I still completed it; its also one of the few events I ever did.


If Nexus wants to be around for another 10 years it needs to change its content model, severely.

Because no one is going to do what I did to get anything done, And not getting it done the way I did, wouldn't make other participants "less of a player" than I am. There are other things they need to do too, but updating the chances of finishing an event alone would substantially and dramatically improve the game.

These games aren't as good as I remember them being. Some of the music is, though.


I dont remember them being so hard.


Nostalgia is so funny.

(Shredders infinite still works in tournament fighters)


I am bad at all of these games

Why did I do this, why, why.
