Sabene and Alianne approached me with the idea of getting rank 10 in all nations, so that we could have the 3 flags + our ToAU flag hanging nicely in our moghouse. And seeing as I hope to eventually complete as much of this game as humanly possible (I will never ever try HNMs, way too much of a time sink) I figured I might as well do it. Plus i've really needed something to keep me busy in this game and getting into a mission static sounded like fun.
So... we started off by changing our nation of allegiance to Windurst. The land of pudgey short Tarutarus who all secretly plan to destroy the world why they fool us with their cute personalities. We got up to the 2.3 dragon fight when a few LS members of ours, suddenly became interested in also changing nations and joining our static. They also invited a friend of theirs, Sulitas. The only problem was that in the end, the 2 LS members that wanted to join us, had flagged a mission for Bastok and weren't able to complete the mission before the day we had all planned to continue on. So in the end, the static was down to 4 members.
We spent a total of 2 days getting up to mission 7.2, and we were really lucky because we had a few LS members help us out with the 5.1 mission (Fei'yin Fight - lvl 50 Cap) when we asked spur of the moment. Usually with capped fights its difficult to get something scheduled but Timwakefield and Falk came to our rescue and allowed us to keep going without any delays.
Finally when we got up to 7.2, we had to call it a night because it was getting late and I also had to go out and do some errands. So we made plans to finish off the missions on the following Saturday, and then start Bastok Missions. But... Alianne's xbox 360 decided to die, and so our plans kinda fell apart.
However! He managed to get a new xbox within a couple of days and we decided to finish up the missions as planned. Only problem was that Sulitas was no where to be found (something about his modem catching fire? I forget the details, but he wasn't able to get online for half a week). We decided anyways though to continue with the missions, because we were eager to change back to San d'Oria and finally get our outpost warps again.
We were able to recruit a few friends of Sabene's for the last fight, and finally had our victory over the little Taru nation!
The dreadful and ugly Bastok was next though.... and boy did we ever push ourselves trying to get these missions done as fast as we could. In total, we spent 2 days going from rank 1-10 and again we were lucky to grab some LS friends to help us on the 5.1 mission again. (I love that mission, but I am SO taking a break from doing it for a while now >_>)
And finally, as of 2 days ago we all switched back to our great nation SAND'ORIA!!!!! And now I just need to wait for our nation to get control of all the zones so I can get my outpost warps back ><
So other than that, i've been duo-ing with Alianne. We've been lvling BLM and NIN so that we can catch up to Sabene's BLM. We finally hit 54 last night, and thanks to the new Anniversary Rings... catching up shouldn't be a problem. We've decided to become a bit of a trio static because we're usually online at the same time.
We also decided to go have some fun and kill stuff for skillups yesterday in Castle O. Seemed the three of us had a really bad day in RL, and so it was nice to just have some company and get some stuff off our chests.
Seems that no matter how hard you try to make things right in life, no matter how hard you try to please people... life just throws more at you.So needless to say it was a nice couple of hours we spent just killing things and chatting.
And today, a bunch of us in the LS went out to help Onedarkflame get his Tavnazian Bell in The Eldieme Necropolis. At first it was just Odf and me, but eventually the rest of the gang came out to help out. I had to eventually leave to do some errands, but I heard that they not only got the drop, but they also went and killed the NM in Fei'yin and also managed to take care of another member's (Zeo) AF3.
Earlier this week, RoR had a good Windurst run. We've been low on members lately because of the approaching summer. A lot of people seem to be leaving the game because SE fails at bringing any decent content and well... I guess the game is just dying like every MMO eventually does. So we didn't end up being as successful in farming our coins as we have in the past, however we did only have 1 wipe and there were very few deaths this time.It was really nice to finally have a non-deathish (yes I made that word up) Windurst run! And of course, as usual we had a few members goofing off in costumes. Ketsurui decided he was going to be the chocolate Mandragora, who drops chocolate randomly.
That about sums most of this week up. Oh, I did finally manage to get my clothcraft to 55, but it was pretty expensive. I can break even if ONLY people will buy my stupid Karakul cloth.... which doesn't seem likely -_-.I guess the only other thing that i'm feeling like posting is i've come to realize there are those that play this game to make friends, and have fun. And then there are those that play the game to feel better about themselves by causing drama wherever they go.
Recently two of my friends in game have had some really retarded rumors flying around, just because they've been seen in game together. But I guess being in the same linkshell, and helping each other on quests and missions automatically implies you're having an e-relationship. And I guess that also means, that its up to others to spread this around, and create the worst possible image about good people in hopes to turn other players against them.
Same crap all over again. I'm just surprised this time its not me they're focusing on, considering "some" people are convinced i'm a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Oh yes..... I am... I secretly await my chance to ninja lot everyone! MWAHAHAHAHA!
Its entertaining to see the crap people come up with, but the truth is that the people that are targetted, often get hurt. I can't understand why people go out of their way to make others in this game miserable. This game is meant to be enjoyed, and people just need to mind their own business and play. If you don't get along with someone, so be it. Don't play with them, but why the hell do you have to go around spreading crap that isn't true, only to make their life and gaming experience miserable?
I think I have to learn how to do PvP. I think my new goal, will be to hunt down all the morons and beat them down with my club. Or sword. ACTUALLY! I will beat them down with plushy mithra dolls! Time to go practice in Rakion >_>.
