On the Lineage Classic Christer server, there is a player famous since the days of original Lineage and the Remaster era for their 'Master's tenacity.' Known as 'Taesan-gunju' (Mount Taesan Master), they are said to exclusively play the Master class.

In the first Siege War, the Seop-Seop Alliance, led by Taesan-Gunju, successfully captured two castles. From a laid-back streamer known for his signature 'Uh-huh' and 'Heh-heh' catchphrases to a powerful lord commanding the server, let’s hear the story of a player who is once again walking the path of a 'Master' in Lineage Classic.

Q. Hello. Could you briefly introduce yourself and your Clan.

" I’m Taesan-Gunju, a YouTuber who loves Lineage and has been playing the Master class for 28 years. When Lineage Classic opened, I told my subscribers and other players, 'This is truly the last Lineage. Let’s give it one more go!' That’s how we gathered to form our Clan and play together.

Q. You are a 'Master' in every sense of the word. I’m curious about the current composition of your alliance and how you believe you were able to create such synergy with them during the Siege War.

" We have various command positions centered around our Guild master, 'Bongja.' We are joined by the Yeongam, Kingka, Jenny, and Gentle Clans, who have stood by us through thick and thin. I am truly grateful for the incredible unity they showed during this Siege War.

Q. You successfully captured the main castles of Kent and Windwood. Did you have a specific strategy in mind?

" From the moment I heard that Siege Wars for the three castles—Kent, Windwood, and Orc Fortress—would begin simultaneously, our goal was to target Kent and Windwood in the first Siege War.

We used deception tactics, such as mimicking marks, while trying to predict the enemy's moves. The flow of the battle went largely as we expected—anticipating where the opponent would strike first and predicting when they might pivot to Orc Fortress based on the remaining siege time—which ultimately led to us securing two castles.

Q. You have insisted on playing only the Master class for a long time. Is there a reason you are so passionate about this specific class?

" While most people play Knights, Elves, or Mages, it’s true that the Master class is weaker in direct combat. However, I believe the highlight of Lineage is the Siege War. I fell in love with the charm of Siege Wars, and that’s why I always find playing a Master so enjoyable.

Q. Do you think your consistent dedication to the Master class influenced the results of this Siege War?

" It’s true that having a high-level Master helps in a Siege War. But more than that, the unity of the Clan members is the most important factor.

Q. Lastly, please share your resolve for the next Siege War.

" Winning the next Siege War would be great, but nothing would be better than everyone just enjoying the game together for a long time. And NC! We gathered again to enjoy the romance of this nostalgic game after Lineage Classic opened. I hope you make Lineage Classic great and avoid the operational issues we saw during the Remaster era!
