MY FAVORITE BAND!!!

From the very first day that this band was formed (in the year 2000), they were destined to be something more than the ordinary. Forced to be independent due to the lack of support coming from major record companies, Urbandub released their debut album called BIRTH. Off of this album, the hit tracks “Come”, “Give” and “Would You Go” launched and took their world by storm. Unique, timely and yet experimental, it was something that entertainment scenes around the Philippines needed: a kick start into the future of original music.

With the release of their sophomore effort, INFLUENCE (Lighter Records), Urbandub took on a new form, changing their sound with a new drummer (From Jed Honrado to Jerros Dolino). It was the sound in this album that clearly defined the steps that Urbandub would start to take. The track “Soul Searching” later won the award as Best Song of the Year in the NU107 Rock Awards 2003. Pushing the sound further, the collection bagged the Album Of The Year Award in the NU107 Rock Awards 2004.

Today, Urbandub now offers yet a third helping of what they are capable of. With the 2005 release of the album EMBRACE, Urbandub has proven that there is hope for the struggling artist. With help from their community and the noise they have created, they were able to grab the attention of EMI Music Philippines. Not one to take chances, the band has kept Lighter Records as their management arm and guide. In line with their ideals, EMI allowed them the creative freedom to record their album on their home soil of Cebu. Added to that, they have been able to maintain their independent principles while taking major steps into the scene that has awaited their new sound.

Urbandub is Gabby Alipe (Vocalist / Guitarist), Lalay Lim (Bassist), John Mendoza (Drummer) and John Dinopol (Lead Guitarist). Urbandubs career thus far has given much inspiration and support to upcoming acts, most of which fall under the Lighter Records stable such as Faspitch, The Ambassadors, Still, Nuncyspungen (Cagayan) and Point Click Kill (Ilo Ilo). Each of them now aspire to take their own roads in music, paving their own way and modeling some of their steps after the success of Urbandub.

WHY "URBANDUB"?
the story behind the name according to Gabby:

When we were just starting out..urbandub was supposed to be a reggae band...we were suppose to play reggae mixed with dub, ska, dancehall, hiphop, and rock. A perfect example of what urbandub would have been--is the song "sailing" and "eating me" --that was the style we were suppose to be playing around with--since we were suppose to be a reggae/dub band, hence the name, urbandub. But becuz of the series of line up changes--and new influences--we became what we are today! The name just kinda got stuck and we never bothered to change it. Soo there you go..the story behind the name "urbandub".

Dungeon Name: Forgotten Temple
Requirements: lvl 115 and Muster Card: Forgotten Temple - B1F
Duration: 50 min
Note: Dungeon mobs won't respawn in this dungeon
And you should take 1kk with you because later in the dungeon you need to
buy a Epaulette.



The Entrance of the dungeon is in Forgotten Ruin a lvl 95 area.

The Guide:

1. Press on the hour glass to turn off the fire wall

This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 1024x605.

2. As you step up the stairs on the left there is a figure you can click on.

This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 1024x749.

3. Keep going forward, you will meet a wall of fire that is blocking a bridge. Just wait until it goes down and pass by. Then keep moving forward until you cannot go forward anymore. Click on the monument on the left.



4. Keep moving forward. Press on this next monument



5. This next part. If you have less than 1000 defense u should turn on BM+aura. You will need to break down the wall of fire while being shot at by monuments on the sides





After you destroy the wall of fire. Keep moving forward and kill the oblivion to continue with the quest. These mobs have high def and can melee/range; however, their atk rate arent that great.



After you kill all the oblivion. Go forward until u get to the next wall of fire. Click on the snake monument on the right to advance ur quest and teleport in. Note: each member has to click on the right monument to teleport in. Don't try to run pass the wall of fire it wont happen ^^



In the next room, you have to kill the mini boss - Nesbite. At the same time in each corner of the room, there will be a Serpent that spawn. You will have about 5 seconds to kill the serpent, or it will activate the laser and most likely 1 hit you. The serpent spawn goes in clockwise manner. So you dont have to guess where he will spawn next. If you are solo-ing you can drag the boss around clockwise. If you are in a party you can drag him or have 1-2 people work clockwise to kill the serpent.



After you kill the boss. Click on the altar in the middle of the room to open the way to the next hallway. Go forward and clear the hallway to get quest items.



Once you get to the end of the hallway look on the left side there is a beetle box. Break it to get the Mutant Record. Note: each member in the party needs one.



After you get ur mutant record work ur way backward. Talk to the monument on 2nd picture to open a door. Talk to the researcher behind the door. Pay him 1 mil and get the Epaulette +300 Hps and +500 def.

This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 1024x605.

Once you get your Epaulette. Go back and into the room to kill all the mobs that will spawn (you need to click on the machine at the first Screenshoot, then they will appear). Occasionally click on the wall of fires to try to break them. Break them when you can.

This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 1024x749.

After you can go into the next room. Make sure you have at least 2 SP bars (if not 3). This next boss requires u to kill him in certain amount of time or he will fully regenerate. He will also turn on a shield occasionally. Once he turns on his shield, get off the platform to the stairs. Kill all the mobs that respawn at the stairs and then attack the boss again. Just keep doing that back and forth, and he should die. Furthermore, once his shield is turned on, the faster you kill the guards, the more time you will have to hit the boss before the shield goes back up

Here's possible position for people to stand while fighting the boss.



After you kill the boss, take off the Purify Epaulette and use ur A.C. Transmutter to break it to get a quest item. Talk to the stone behind where the boss stood to teleport you to the next room.



This long hallway has fire cannons that will shoot at you while you run by. With a defense of 800-900, they will hit you for about 200-300. If you need to, you might want to turn on BM and/or aura to run by. Once you get to the end of the hallway, you will need to break a wall of fire down to go into the next room (while being shot at by the cannons)



Once you get into the next room. Find a corner to get all of your party gather there. All those stone monuments mobs will spawn in different batch and just clear the room.



After the room is clear go into the next hallway and kill all the Groga

This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 1024x608.

Once you clear the Groga, you can enter the next hallway to the last boss' room. Make you have enough SP (2 maybe 3) before going in. If you click on the statue on the Groga picture a timer will run and u have a certain time to come near the Fire wall befor the boss room..after some seconds the wall will open and you need to dash inside fast or it will be closed again and u need to destroy it.
The last boss you have couple minutes to kill him. If you don't kill him, he will disappear and a bunch of mobs will spawn. Once the boss respawn, the boss will get stronger. The boss will get stronger by each respawn.




After you kill the boss, there is an altar at the back of the room. When you click it the dungeon will be over and you will be teleported back out. Make sure you get ur chests (if u have picked up keys along the way). There are 3 possible keys (red, blue, green). Each key has a different serie of box to click before u can open the chest room. The location of the chest room is between the Mutant Record and Researcher.

Key Quest:

To start the hidden key quest you need to obtain one key.
There are 3 kinds of keys:
- Mutant Key Red
- Mutant Key Green
- Mutant Key Blue

Those keys are drops from monsters inside FT, every normal monster can drop it.
Sometimes no key will drop and sometimes you will get more than one (depend only on luck). The best way is to kill all monsters in the whole dungeon.

Now after you got a key you need to find the correct boxes.
You need to talk with 3 of them and then you get the Treasure key.

Mutant Key Red:

- First you need to click on the box which is at the beginning (Entrance).
- Next box is in the tunnel after the Nebsite room.
- Last box is in the Nebsite room.

Mutant Key Green:

- First box is in the tunnel after Chakris (second boss, the cat).
- Second box is befor you enter the room with the fire wall and those shooting
statues.
- Last box is in the room befor Chakris.

Mutant Key Blue:

- First box is in the tunnel befor the last boss room (After the Golem room).
- Second box is in the room befor Chakris.
- Last box is in the Golem room.

The Treasure Guardian (the room with your 4 chests) is in the tunnel between the Nebsite room and the Mutant Record Statue.

Notes:

- You can only do one key per FT run.
- It is not important which key you take, drops will be the same.
- Easiest Key for solo runs is the red one because you must not kill Chakris for the
boxes.

Official confirmation from Estsoft:

Quote:

In Forgotten Temple: Is there any difference between the red, green and blue key? Red, green and blue key in Forgotten Temple B1F are the items to start quest. The only difference between red, green and blue key in Forgotten Temple B1F is the procedure of the quest. They all reward same drop rate and quest reward.

Mutant Energy Ball:

If you get a Mutant energy ball from a monster and you want to craft Mithril then you need to run back to the place where you picked up the Record of the Mutant.
Across from this point will be the hidden NPC.
Talk with him and give him his ball back and the wall on the left side will disappear.
Now you can walk inside and choose the card you want (sloted Mithril).

Posted: May 23 2008 at 11:54am

this is for certain people.. but w/e everyone can read it. Prices for b2f are already high enough. won't pass the 5m mark (npc price). so w/e ill post this.

FIRST the 2M quest

*DISCLAIMER* THIS IS NOT A FULL GUIDE TO B2F, IF YOU DONT KNOW HOW TO DO B2F, THIS WONT HELP YOU AT ALL. I WILL TYPE UP A BRIEF BUT ACCURATE GUIDE.

- you know the start.. 2 queens.. the dog.. the huge fire zombie
- the body.. the red horn
- kill ghost blader boss
- while in warrior boss room, there are 2 ghost archers, kill them and a cruel bat will appear. VERY IMPORTANT. you have 5 to 6 seconds to kill him. if you dont, you suck and just give up now.
- grab the nasty potion he drops, kill the warrior boss.
- go back to the blader boss room, there is a coffin.
- pour the potion into the coffin. Vampire will come out, kill him
- go back into the warrior room, do the same with the coffin in there. kill vampire that spawns
- go to archer room, kill boss, you will see a red glowing horn near the gate. touch it. 2 vampires and a bloody lady spawns. kill them.
- touch tomb after they are dead, last vampire boss will spawn, kill him, touch the bloody box, you earn 2M.

NOW THE QUEST EVERYONE IS WAITING FOR. 5M, 3k HONOR, 8 CHESTS!

hmm should i post it?..
























































































yea whatever..

- in the big room with the coffee grinder.. after the archer boss (printz room). there are two glowing walls. touch them both
- touch a weapon rack close to the wall (you'll get 100 honor, but this is not important)
- go back to the room where you killed the big fire zombie boss. aka the entrance to the ghost blader room.
- go along the room and touch the first mirror.
- continue along to warrior room, touch second mirror.
- go to the vampire boss place, touch the third mirror.
- after this do what you normally do.. the r/b/g ghost room.. jumar room.. andreas room.. the dashing.. the bridge.. the fake boss.. death knight prime.. more fake bosses.. and finally the real boss. get his soul stone, break tomb.

two parts from here
there is another 3k honor quest.
- go back to andreas room, touch the torture chair. its glowing.
- go to entrance of the killian room
- touch the backpack first
- touch the body
- go to the end, touch coffin, touch the wall behind coffin. 3k honor.

AND HERE IT IS FINALLY! HOW TO GET THE FRIGGEN 5M AND ANOTHER GODDAMN 8 CHESTS.

- go back to jumar room, touch torture chair, a ghost troll will spawn, kill him.
- door opens, someone dash in, grab chest, get out.
- repeat 7 more times, touch the chair, everybody gets 5M.

finish the dungeon. another 3k honor.

so yea.. 10k honor, 7m, an amount of chests that takes more than my fingers to count.

if you're high level, make some friends and do b2f.
if you're low level, too bad.

screenshots available upon request. but you have to give me a b2f =P, not paying 5m to go in there to grab your ss.

If you seen this or know this from somewhere else.. good for you.

best done in party of 6 or 7

after a certain point, if you die, you wont be able to make it back. unless you got some godly def. shadow shield might help, never tried.

so there you have it, the secret to b2f and the reason it went from 300k to 5 million.

flame me if you want for revealing this guide (aka all you high level people). but MEH. that's all
