A year ago when Nekro crafting was introduced, I was so excited, mainly because it gave even more reasons to run elite. I ran the three quest maps over and over to collect all the parchments, even when a friend told me not to bother completing the quest if I didn't have a fossil.
A year later, parchments collected, recipe secured, I still never thought I would craft a Nekro even when I ran Arena religiously hoping to loot a fossil.
Months passed. Knight after knight looted a fossil in locked but Arena still wouldn't yield one for me. I finally used my recipe to craft Nekros, but those belonged to others.
Until recently, when I finally looted a fossil in Arena. Only to be thwarted yet again because I had no vials and those in CS were selling for 300k++. Fine, alright, no biggie, I'll farm them, I thought.
And this was where things turned even more unexpected.
"I'd love to see you with Nekro," said Gurukay when he gave me the vials he looted in Arena.
"My goal is to get your Nekro crafted," said Killerxyler when he ran Arena with me to farm the vials he later gave to me.
"Come to GH, I have a vial for you. Please accept," said Merlinmagi.
(Isn't it ironic that when I was desperately needing vials, they dropped for everyone else in my party?)
I ended up looting only two out of the ten vials necessary for crafting.
And when I was one vial short, Isian nonchalantly dropped one in my inventory. I vowed I would farm enough vials to start Nekro crafting by last weekend. I got everything set before the deadline.
And here he is now, my Nekro, my first arcane pet. It had been a very long journey, very frustrating a lot of times. But he is here now, and one thing that I can say about him is: I would never have him without the help of the Trinity Knights who ran elite Shuyal and Tindirin and Arena with me and gave me all those vials.
Thank you for my Nekro. I love him so much and I'm very very happy. :')
