Christmas is getting near. And so is the Bahia Island patch. As a matter of fact, GE servers are currently down to give way for the scheduled server updates. For the mean time here some reasons why Bahia Isle patch is worth the wait.

More features are unveiled as the time for the release draws near. One of them is the preview of the Bahia Island patch. I will upload the youtube version here when since youtube is blocked while I was writing this. 

Bahia Island of Fire

It’s not all just fun and games up in the Bahias. The Island of Fire which is extended from Bahia Island, is the home ground of some of the strongest monsters in the land.

The huge volcano located on the Island of Fire serves as the largest draw factor for adventurers since the legendary “Weapon of the Devil” from the Deprodine series can be obtained there.

Inside the Island of Fire, there are four zones that are accessible by using certain types of keys.

• The key to Island of Fire Zone 1 costs 100,000 vis
• The key to Island of Fire Zone 2 costs 500,000 vis
• The key to Island of Fire Zone 3 costs 800,000 vis
• The key to the Treasure Chest on the Island costs 1,000,000 vis

The first zone is accessible form inside the Bahia Island and the remaining zones are accessible by purchasing keys from the merchants.

The Island of Fire also creates certain hallucinations so another player may appear to be in Baron mode and is PK-able. PK hungry? Then Island of Fire is for you. Since other players (or you) only  appear as Baron but not necessarily means you *really* an enemy, item dropping is not applicable.

Here are some pics:

Bellems Ruins

Bellem's Ruins is accessible only at Island of Fire Zone 1 and by using a special key called Key of Bellem. The zone opens at a specific time and is available only at Channel 1. When the zone is open, players can enter the zone and mini-bosses will be summoned and will drop treasure boxes that is owned only by one family.

Depths of the Crater

Within the Depths of the Crater lies the Tombstone of Ferruccio.

A ruthless Lava Queen and her underlings reside in the crater which seems to be sealed by the Tombstone of Ferrucio’s mystical power. Those said to have seen them have never returned.

There is only one way to break the seal: Before even attempting to break the seal, you will need to collect four insignias - Fire, Ice, Lightning and Darkness, which is rumored to belong to the four Celberos on the Island of Fire. The Tombstone of Ferruccio will tell you that there is a secret number between 1 and random number, e.g. 3538. If the amount of vis you place upon his tombstone is the same amount as the secret number, you will be able to break the seal and unleash Sekhmet. Each time you make an attempt, the tombstone will inform you whether the number you have guessed is higher or lower than the secret answer. You will have a total number of 11 attempts to break the seal, after which you will need to wait a certain number of hours to try again.

Sekhmet is a Level 125 raid boss! Defeat him and one of the most legendary weapons in the world will belong to you!
