NottMyTempo/ZehroHH/AuroraSoluna for the additional conjuring stone.
Rackey (275 Mihile) for the fresh 275 Chair, belated congratulations on hitting 275!
The speed run is back, fresh with the introduction of the new damage cap!
What can I say... we got faster! Duh. Pardon me for being a dud and forgetting the existence of seed rings prior to the Heretic Hilla(re)run. We still only have 5 practices a day so we did not do the other bosses or rerun the earlier ones so I can use my seed rings.
Thanks everyone involved for coming together and working this out together in an organised and efficient manner. Let's do this again if Dynamic Duo or other significant Crit Damage buffs come back!

![[MapleStory SEA] Black Mage ft. VanarisDB (DB PoV): First clear for our new Bishop [01/03/2020]
The End Game - Black Mage with VanarisDB.
The chill run continues for the start of March and were able to clear as a team this time... until ZehroHH crashed upon clearing Black Mage. Guess the family portrait will have to wait.
Meanwhile Im hearing about other squads trying to adopt similar strat (which seems to be heavily unpopular among gms viewers btw) and seeking our teammates for advice, hope to see another squad clear for the month of March! Gambatte~

Things are becoming routine. Other than the odd slip during phase 2 segment test, everyones running at full efficiency. Arcaneshade Dual Bowgun loot meant 1stMercedesz gets more incentive to starforce his weapon.

![[MapleStory SEA] Pre Neo Black Mage Solo Attempt - Last Chance Saloon, Can I Make It? [25/05/2021]
[MapleStory SEA] Last Day Pre Neo Black Mage Solo Attempt - Dual Blade PoV
Event Buffs:
1) Dynamic Duo
2) Hotel Maple Membership VIP
3) Swan Dream Title
I have all sorts of unintended stuff happened in the past week.
Guess it was not meant to be. Sorry to disappoint, Im every bit as disappointed with my failure in my desperate attempts since I began trying about 10 days ago.
Mishaps in previous runs include:
1) Multiple BoD bugs in P3 that causes me to lose aggression, thereby pace and survivability
2) Just plain throwing lives in P3 with poor gameplay
3) BoD bug in P4
4) Final cut bug in P4 on a run that was faster than this run until it happened with 13mins left to go 3 days prior; closest run ever, pacing-wise. (For non dual blade users, losing an iframe and constant 40% final damage meant that I cannot complete the run in time. For dual blade users, have anyone ever experienced not being able to cast final cut in a boss fight, even after dying and reviving? First time in my 5 years of playing this game...)
5) Once entered without summoned pets after removing for a photoshoot that resulted in a lack of pace in P1 and getting smashed by both knights in a small cage
And finally, I equipped the wrong badge for this run, losing pace over the course of P3 and P4. One badge may not make much of a difference for a short boss fight, but over the course of an hour, it adds up to a 2 min slower P3, and an estimated 3-4 min slower P4. And of course, very discouraged with cracking my BoD twice in P4 while attacking constantly, having to pause, swap to Black Shield with lower damage output plus dodge more stuff just to survive, then swap back to White when BoD is back up.
Im just really annoyed with myself, I know it can be done, but I was unable to deliver. With complications in work and family I was unable to attempt until recently. Finally got the swing of things going, each fail just adds up the pressure and sense of disappointment until I got as close as I can in this video, HP-wise. With Neo patch arriving tomorrow releasing damage cap, it wouldnt be the same sense of achievement any more.
PS: I will bounce back and recover. Just let me wallow in self pity in the mean time. [MapleStory SEA] Pre Neo Black Mage Solo Attempt - Last Chance Saloon, Can I Make It? [25/05/2021]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/65R9AWWoj8s/mqdefault.jpg)

[MapleStory SEA] Hard Lucid Solo with VanarisDB (Dual Blade)
Dedicated to all Dual Blades.
Since the cheese for Night Lords Spreadthrow on Phase 3 is no big feat, some of my Dual Blade buddies were wondering if we would suffer in the genesis quest as a Dual Blade. Fret not, it can be done. 1 minute buffs can be cast just before dealing the killing blow on Phase 2, and be sure to move during Blade Storm to prevent the attack block after 30 seconds in the same spot, timing can be more comfortable. For reference, Im using a 2 second cooldown reduction hat in this run instead of CarteThrones 3 second reduction. And oh, Asura for bomb is just so sweet.
Recommended cycle for Phase 3:
Blade Tornado - Karmic Fury - Phantom Blow for 3 seconds - Blood for Blood 2 - Blade Storm - Blade Tornado - Karmic Fury - Ring of Restraint - Phantom Blow - Blade Tornado - Karmic Fury [MapleStory SEA] Hard Lucid Solo ft. VanarisDB (Dual Blade)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7IZIQD4c6dU/mqdefault.jpg)

![[MapleStorySEA] Black Mage ft. VanarisDB (DB PoV): Post Genesis, New Approach [09/08/2020]
The End Game - Black Mage with VanarisDB.
Once the liberation of Genesis Dagger is out of the way, I have been playing completely different. Took a week off to practice the authentic way, with brave, constant engagement and feeling confident of ducking most of the push attacks from Black Mage. This run is significantly faster than our previous runs despite the change of roster as a result. Really satisfied with the first half of the fight, before I got complacent and started leaking lives trying to squeeze in an extra attack every now and then. Hope to keep this rhythm up in future Black Mage runs!
A well deserved congratulations to OnyxBasilisk for his first clear on his main character; he has been an awesome pilot for our kanna(s) on our road to liberating our Genesis weapons.
A huge congratulations to the third party from Aquila clearing Black Mage just before our run started! As more and more parties are attempting the boss, we hope to hear good news from a 4th, or possibly a 5th team clear this month!
There will unfortunately be yet another slight tweak to the lineup next month, with Dazzleee leaving the squad to join up with his guildmates. We will be expecting a new addition next month hence it might take a while to get him accustomed to managing the boss fight in September, lets keep our hopes down on an early clear. Til then, see you guys on the next video!
The Team:
OnyxBasilisk (Evan) - First clear!
AuroraSoluna (Soul Master)
InverseAbyss (Ark)
Dazzleee (Bishop)

[MapleStory SEA] Hard Will with VanarisDB.
Dedicated to my team and all Dual Blades.
Everything is gelling in place... except for the server. Lag spikes caused a few unfortunate team deaths in phase 2. Managed to change full set of drop rate gears before clearing, got a Arcaneshade Knuckle! This is probably the week where everyone is ready to tackle the boss like basic routine without any troubles from now onwards.
