Worst EXing Night Ever. But at least you get the short version of it:

Two parties.
Two full party wipes.
One party wipe other than me.
One NIN60 with no Teleport-Mea crystal.
Three hours spent.

End result? Negative XP for the night.

On top of that, someone who claims to have RDM 75 said I sucked and was the worst RDM he ever saw. (The party had a PLD tank. I told them multiple times they needed a WHM for a PLD party, not me as the main healer. I used all my MP curing him, was down to 6 MP. He died, DDs finished the mob. He jumped on me for not converting. I noted that I didn't have MP for stoneskin and the mob had an AoE damage move. If they had listened to me and got a WHM and somehow the WHM couldn't cure, I would have considered risking my life to save the PLD. However, since I told them this wouldn't work and they wanted to go on anyway, I saw no need to die for them.)

Remind me again why I play this game?

Take a break! EB and I are suspending our accounts for February, and enjoying Guild Wars in the meantime. :)

I'm very very tempted. But for now, I'm going to just take a break from leveling RDM. I need it.

Every day I'm strongly considering doing what aelice is doing; most average players that play this game nowadays are simply bricks of stupid ._.; You probably still play this game because you still <3 the people you play with. :3

My next job is going to be PLD or NIN, after WAR hits 75, since PLD and NIN AF look nice on Hume 7A (by now, people should realize that I play jobs for the AF ^^;)... it's going to up the KO counts for Suka more than BST did, with the look of nowaday average pickup parties... ; ;

Well, think of it this way: I've died more times on RDM through Convert + monster AoE/aggro than I can count on two hands; you'd think I'd know better...

I know, I want to play NIN because the AF looks so great on my model! And that NIN who didn't have the tele-mea crystal? He was your model, and he looked so damned good in the AF! I just wish he hadn't been so stupid and clueless -- he was bad enough that even being hot didn't help his cause. :P

Eventually I'm going to take NIN to subjob levels, but the idea of it scares me. I don't want to tank for these random idiots! Like you said: It'd raise the deathcount more than anything else to date...

Because you're a sucker for punishment? ;)

Always have been, probably always will be. :P

Maybe one day I'll learn!

1. He's really fucking lucky, I've seen some piss-poor rdms--for example, the kind that don't dispel or refresh because they're busy meleeing.

2. "Then you won't mind if I leave. Bye!" In-demand jobs don't have to put up with assholes.

Exactly. How annoying.

"Then you won't mind if I leave. Bye!" In-demand jobs don't have to put up with assholes.

Heehee, yep! You don't want me? I'll go! It's not like I'll have to wait more than a minute or two for another invite...
