ZOHAR vs. Bastok M6: a photo tour

[Arli]

A few weeks ago, our LS on the Leviathan server got together to do Bastok M6 and had tons of fun and wanted to share the pics with everyone.
Here's a pictoral account of the mission:

This gallery could be a SPOILER for those who haven't done the mission, so don't go further if you'd rather not see the mission before you experience it firsthand.

Getting in to see the Bastokan Consulate in San D'Oria.


Our first encounter with the heroine known as Lion.


Somehow she doesn't seem impressed with us...


Nice peice... if you know what I mean...

[Arli]

The fat man himself, Bastok's embassador in San D'Oria.


Getting the details of the mission...


Our first assignment is from the San D'Orian nobles themselves.


Group shot within San'Doria. Ready to kick some Orc butt.


Dogpile on the foul mouthed Tarutaru WHM.


The rope bridge at the top of Ghelsba outpost.

[Arli]

I dont think this Orc saw what hit him. An alliance of 8 mowing his ass DOWN!


The Warchief went down faster than a Hong Kong whore.


Running off into the sunset for the next leg of our journey.


We say goodbye to the lovely city of the Elvaan...



...and board a ship from Selbina to Mhaura. Sea sickness sucks.


Surveying the deck from the captain's control room.


Nasty weather on deck. Where's my fishing pole?

[Arli]

We arrive in Mhaura, port city of the Quon continent.


We set off across the dry plains of Birumiru Penninsula inland.


Almost to our destination, we cross a river in East Sarutabaruta.


Finally, we arrive at the gates of Windurst.


Bastokan Consulate Melek and Gold Skull give us directions.


We arrive inside the Star Tree, the seat of Windurstian government.


Jayde and Arliman posing outside the magic portal into the giant tree.

The team gathers for the voyage into Yagudo territory.


Picking a fight with a Yagudo samurai within Giddeus.


We finally arrive at Balgas' Dias and the Burning Circle.


Weary, we look back to make sure noone was left behind.


This is it, we enter the Burning Circle.


Cutscene....


A nasty looking fellow. Smells too.

[Arli]

It seems the demon was expecting us and summoned his pet: The Black Dragon.


Semih Lafhina, heroine of Windurst ponders the beast.


Knocking her arrow she strikes!


A blow in vain, but she senses our approach and leaves the battle to the party.


The ultimate battle ensues!


We are victorious but the cost heavy. Lion shows up and assesses the mess.


Yup, we all died..except Endy thanks to a fast Cure spell I threw him before I died.



Thus ended our trip and successfull completion of Bastok mission 6 and earning Rank 3. Thanks to all ZOHAR members who attended. We're planning on doing M8 this week and will post the pics up from that at a later date.

Har, excellent shots Stephen. ^^ I've been running guard duty all week for that quest. If I do it again today, that'll make five runs total.
