Looks like an Elyos guild already killed Menotios, so 5 Major Crowns (each 9400 AP) for everyone! 8)
That makes 6 crowns for us, since we also got all lower forts. Now to make it 14 by getting the rest of the forts :P
Just curious, has anyone succeeded by now in conquering the Core fort?
not as far as i know.
here is the current status of our abyss.

we had core before merging
Because the asmos took it before us. And apparently the general is easier when it's non-balaur. I'd like to see them try it now
me and shaezra and i think berujin also were present on the 1st elyos atempt for balaur core after merge. elyos were alot on siege attacking the boss but its HP almost dindt move during the time i was there (when i arrived it still had 60% of HP) and it has powerfull AOE skills, with alot damage and range, capable of doing 1 hit kill. as i saw elyos arrivingv near boss in packs, i saw them falling down in packs also with that AOE.
I was there as well - we didn't took the Core, because for some unknown reason boss got resetted on 50% hp.
The reason is the same as all other mobs/bosses that get reseted. Bad code that needs to be fixed!
Happened to me in multiple sittuations and it's really frustrating and not funny at all. Sometimes leading to you dying because you can not keep up the fight for so long.
About the rewards:

"Getting questions about FoTRS free loot + DoD rewards: Not heard anything new, but been told this week, so should def happen this week."
Should be 14 major crowns put together.
Divine fort: 5 crowns
Menotio: 5 crowns
Upper forts: 3 crowns
Lower forts: 1 crown
Having one faction in a server: 3 crowns
17 crowns at least ;)

What? So only one char gets the crowns now? Bullshit, ncsoft
Finally! We have the crowns :)
Only 1 char will get the crown!! and they are untradeable items!!! at least give me 5/6 of them and i will give the other crowns to Fragore. i never want to kick someone like this! not fair >:(
Just an advice. Look at the abyss items what you want to buy before you deliver the crowns.
If for example you want to buy a level 30 elite weapon that costs 210k ap, build 80k ap before delivering the crowns. Because at lower rank you get more ap from mobs and asmos and loose less when you die to asmo. At higher ranks you get less ap and loose more.
yep. I have personal experience on that :D
Don't build up AP till you have enough to buy all items together.
If you can afford one of them, get it immediately,
Buying as you go, one by one, will make it faster to buy all items, than trying to build up all the AP in your char at once.
Or then like Andkro said, keep the AP items aside, until you have enough for the set you want.
As long as the AP is not in your char to be lost.
