Realm of the Mad God

No, this blog is not just all Minecraft.

Realm of the mad god, or rotmg, or realm, or whatever people call it, is a online mmorpg game, translated, massive multiplayer online role-playing game.
Here is the website where you can play the game: realmofthemadgod.com

The basic idea of the game is to level up different classes, obtain awesome gear and defeat the Mad God Oryx. There are many dungeons where players can complete to obtain rare or "un-tiered" gear. Players also upgrade their characters using stat potions. The main 6 stats are defense, attack, dexterity, speed, wisdom, and vitality. HP and mana can be increased, however, those stats take a lot more effort to upgrade. Pet eggs can be acquired throughout the game which when hatched, can aid the player in many different ways. From healing players to helping the fight, pets are always very useful. By feeding them, pets can be leveled up to be even more efficient and helpful.
For everything the player does, he/she earns fame which is the main source of the leader boards Players are ranked by how much fame their characters obtain upon death. Fame can be used to upgrade pets and feed them.

To watch some good RotMG gameplay, I suggest you check out KalleGaming, a fabulous realm player.

The game is free, but players can chose to spend money to buy gold, which can be used to buy items or upgrade pets.

You can check out the wiki for more details on the game.

Thanks for reading, until next time, bye!

MinePlex

Most of you probably already know what MinePlex is, but unfortunately, I didn't until 2 weeks ago. MinePlex is basically a lot like the Shotbow Network (but they're less sophisticated :3) where they have a bunch of cool mini-games. There is the arcade, where you play a mix of mini-games, there is dominate, a zone-control type of pvp gamemode, Minecart racing, and Super Smash Mobs. I'm pretty sure there are a lot more.

Oh yes, the Mineplex Games. In my opinion, I don't think the MinePlex games are really fun. The chest loot is very randomized, and supply crates are incredibly OP. I once got diamond leggings and a diamond sword from the supply crate, and it allowed me to kill 3 people in a row. The only cool thing is this big freeze-over called the Deep Freeze. Throughout the game, the deep freeze creeps towards the center of the map, killing people who come in contact with it. It's a really cool environmental factor not many servers have.

The whole Network runs on a reward system of gems, which can be used to buy abilities and perks in all the different gamemodes. Gems are earned simple by playing any mini-games and can add up fast as you continuously play the games. An easy way to start off with a lot of gems is to do the Welcome tutorial and the party tutorial. These give you a total of 6000 gems, and all you have to do is right click the villagers at spawn, and sit and wait for your gems. Gems can also be earned by completing the 2 parkours next to the lobby.

I highly suggest you spend some time on MinePlex, the games are really fun and you'll have a good time on there.

Oh yeah, side note, there are a lot of hackers on here, so get your recording software ready while playing.

Until later, bye guys!

Minecraft Annhilation Map Favors

Hi guys, I just wanted to share my opinions on the 7 different maps currently circulating through Annihilation's map rotation.
There is Coastal, Skylands, Castles, Valleys, Canyons, Andorra and Amazon.

Let me just say it, I like these maps in this order and this order only.

Skylands > Andorra > Amazon, yes AMAZON > Valleys > Coastal  > Castles > Canyons

I don't understand why people like Canyons so much. It's bland, it's full of sand and cactus, and the nexus is so impossible to get to. Also, the mines are really  bad. The gold mine is like half the size of Coastal's and both iron mines in Canyons are smaller then one in Coastal.

OK, the reason I love skylands so much is because
1) the mines are amaaaazing,  they are so big and open, and 6 people can mine at once. There's just so much ore. Also, the terrain is cool, with the ability to knock people off the map. It's awesome, you can knock and full diamond off the map with a new spawn warrior. Also, the big trees allow for great skybridges to get to enemy Nexus' and the tunnels under the base allows you to hit enemies with deadly Nexus raids.
2) the diamond mine is awesome there are probably 12+ ore in the diamond mine, compared to like, 5 in valleys. with no other people, I could mine full diamond armor and tools in less than 5 minutes. The only thing is that so many people are at mid, and you often die trying to mine one ore.
3)Nexus raiding is awesome on there,  so many entrances to the Nexus, it's always fun to attack. plus, skybridges make the game interesting because you can watch people continuously launch themselves into your base.... until your team dies.

It seems a lot of  people hate Skylands. It's weird. Everyone loves Canyons, I hate Canyons, I love Skylands, everyone hates skylands.

Until next time, I'll probably review Amazon or something.
By the way, Andorra got updated so I recommend you try it out.
Server: us.shotbow.net or eu.shotbow.net

Bought Platinum

Who knew buying Premium would be so stressful?

Today I used the CYBERMONDAY coupon code and got Platinum for 25% off. I bought the item, screenshot my receipt, and waited for it to activate. Oh wait, but you need to log onto the server. Derp, wasted 15 minutes. I log onto the server and rejoin for about 10 minutes. Nothing happens.

I proceed to talk to admins and other premiums, but I guess I was getting annoying....

Oh well, turns out buycraft crashed so my purchase was delayed for some 3 and a half hours. Got Platinum now, enjoying the fact that I still can't join GunZ >.>

Yeah...

Until next time guys, bye!

Minecraft Annihilation Map Reviews - Coastal

Just a heads up, these are my personal opinions.

Alright, we have to start with Coastal right? As the first ever Annihilation map introduced, Coastal is the original map first to be played on. Created by xxSaundersxx, it features 4 different islands for the 4 different teams, separated by a small body of water. The middle island which contains diamonds [which spawn in phase 3] is a circular island shaped like a bowl, with the diamonds inside. The map consists of lots of trees and mounds containing the mines, with each Nexus base perched upon a hill with 3 towers connected by bridges.

Here is a picture of the map:

Now for my personal opinions...

Let me just state that Coastal is not my most favorite map. Yes, it was fabulous in the early days off Annihilation, but now with 6 other maps, playing Coastal 80% of the time is getting really old. One would have to switch to so many different games to find a game played on a different map. Don't get me wrong, it's a good map, but it's just too overplayed nowadays.

The map layout for each team's island is really awesome. The the Nexus perched on a hill, teams can build awesome water defenses and cut off enemy access by chopping the bridges to nothing. Also, the mines are fairly big which can allow around 3 people to comfortably mine together. I personally don't like the placement of the gold mine, because it is literally 10 blocks away from the entrance to your island. Frequent attacks on people mining gold occur through many games. Each island is connected by a bridge to a boss arena and another island. The other side is exposed to plain water, which players must swim across.

Now for the diamond mine. The diamond mine, also known as "mid" by literally every single Annihilation player is a bowl shaped island in the middle of the map. It contains fire, soulsand, and 6 diamond ore. With the bowl shaped island, and a small place to fight, mid makes a very dangerous place for players to engage in combat, as everyone goes there for the diamonds. Unlike several other maps, Coastal's diamond mine is quite small, not only in the amount of diamonds, but the size of the area containing them. This doesn't really allow for much intense action except if you strength rush everybody.

Overall, a pretty decent map. As the first map to be created, I suppose it grabbed everyone's attention from then and there on. You can have a very enjoyable game on this map, saying that you don't get wiped out beginning of phase 2.

Until next time, have a nice day and feedback is appreciated!

Minecraft Annihilation Trailers [From the Shotbow Network]

As I enjoy playing Annihilation on the Shotbow Network [us.shotbow.net] so much, I decided to put together a video highlighting the main points of the game, basically a trailer.
Here it is:

I also made a video showcasing the Annihilation map "Canyons". It showcases the amazing terrain and highlights some combat clips.

Hope you guys enjoy these videos :)
