Bloodshed (Ares/Ker) Plans/Boss Walkthrough
SUMMARY:
- To note, Scholar and Corsair are dualed indicating that this can be cleared even faster.
- You can expect 3-5 plans as well as a minimum of 50 alexandrite per run.
- Note, adding more people to this run means killing additional mobs on each floor to obtain full unlocks for everyone. --Leauce (talk) 15:24, February 2, 2013 (UTC)
