Word from the Information Brokers speaks of a hidden respawning Field Boss on Floor 5. A small party reported having encountered a dangerous unknown enemy in the sand dunes of Floor 5. 'Swimming' through the sand, the shark like creature would attack by bursting out of the sand and biting with powerful jaws. This monster <<Sand Shark>>, proved to be a dangerous opponent for the relatively low leveled party, and dropped a powerful alchemical concoction.

»TWO HANDED ASSAULT SPEAR - RANK 2 (+4 DMG)

RANK 1 ARTS

  • [x1 AoE] Sonic Charge (1 Energy +2 per target hit) - A forward thrust which explodes energy at the end of the move.
  • [x2 Stun] Twin Thrust (5 Energy) - A pair of quick thrusts aimed at the user's knees to immobilize them.
  • [x2] Heft (2 Energy) - Lift the heavy end of the spear diagonally across your opponent from the ground, cutting their torso with the tip.

RANK 2 ARTS

  • [x3] Fatal Thrust (3 Energy) - A single powerful thrust.
  • [x4 AoE] Hellish Twice (4 Energy +2 per target hit) - A pair of alternating sweeping motions which damages multiple targets.
  • [x4] Mighty Charge (4 Energy) - Charge your opponent fiercely and impale them with your spearhead. Your opponent is then lifted up before being slammed into the ground from the momentum of your maneuver.

"This is awful..." Snow moaned, her spear drawing a line in the sand behind her every step. Sweat beaded and rolled from her face. Strands of blonde clung to her neck as if they were trying to fuse with her skin. The plated armor she wore felt more like it was trying to kill her than protect her. The heat of the floor permeated every crevice and the distant horizon danced like waves of the ocean.

"Why?" She asked no one. The player's handbook mentioned a field boss on the fifth floor which offered lower leveled players a challenge and large amounts of experience. Not wanting to drag anyone else into her mundane affairs, the young Valkyrie opted to go the fight alone. Which at this moment in time, she already questioned.

Please hurry up and appear, I'm dying. I want to get the heck out of this place and go for a swim in the lake back home... Ugh...

Despite the occasional rock, only silky, sandy dunes stretched for what seemed miles. No trees, no monsters, no players, just a single Snow in a vast expanse of scalding hot desert.

"No- no more..." Snow whined. The butt of her spear dug into the soft sand as the blonde stopped beside the tip of a stone not yet buried by feet of sand. She trudged to the boulder and took a seat only to immediately bounce right back up. Her hand shot to her rear and rubbed at the small patch of red damage from the sun's constant heating of the stone surface.

"Oh for the love of--" Snow opened her inventory menu and summoned a water flask from her beginner's inventory. She popped the cork and poured a small stream on her potential resting spot. Like water on a hot pan, it hissed and steamed. How hot was it here?! She kept going until the water finally saturated into the surface and let it evaporate dry. Finally, she took her seat. Still warm, it was tolerable for her to finally rest.
