That NPC site has a new elf/Ead picture up (probably not work safe), and "Ead" just keeps looking more and more girly~. *snickersnerks*

In the longest XP party our static has done (almost twice as long as usual) we all hit 73! Yay! Two more levels and a bit of a buffer before all done! Trolls again, which are rather nice mobs. Slow, soft, and they sleep well. XP feels slow though. I suspect it might not really be, but it feels like it is.

On Chaser, hit gold 68 finally! I know I keep saying it over and over, but even these low levels feel so much rougher than leather 90-100. I scrape and claw for every .1, and each level costs a couple million. For all the work I've gone through, I keep getting surprised at the level. 'I'm 68? Is that right? No, I must have reversed the numbers. 86, right? ...no, 68... Drat.' Assuming I ever hit 100, this will be my very biggest accomplishment ever in the game. Getting a job to 75? HA HA HA. Leather 100? Not even close.

Didn't do much else. Tried to farm eles, but failed badly. (1 cluster in 4 hours~ Go me!) There was just no weather at all, wherever I tried.

No clue what I'm doing tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be able to catch a Besieged because I'm only 100 into level on BRD. Need a buffer. I keep thinking I need to go out and find a PLD soloing pink birdies and offer to duo until I catch up to static a bit, but I've been feeling so antisocial lately, I just don't want to deal with strangers at all. I wonder how well I'd solo them on BRD by myself? Hmm.

Assault static: Des hasn't turned in his wants yet, but if you want to see what we need and where, here's the info so far. Under 'max needed' it's not a total. So for the first one, where Dani needs 3K and Nai needs 50K, "50K" is correct at the bottom, since Dani's will be covered by the time Nai gets hers. My thought is that we'll spam Lebros and Ilrusi for now, since the most people want stuff there. Then, once we can do them in Periqia (when we hit LC) we'll focus there. Once we get all three of those covered (or if we all die from being bored of them) we can focus on the last two. Of course Des's wants may totally change this plan. :P (Edit: The 'total have' part is what the static has -- what anyone who has only assaulted with the static has. If you've done outside assaults, your number will be higher. I'm only going to track the static as a whole though.)

I want merits... XE Particularly Prot/Shell V and Devotion. :D But we can switch around jobs for that, and all that stuff.

...... And I'm so glad that's Gadalar. Ead is /not/ girly. XE

My intention is to drop out ASAP after 75 (BRD, oh my god, zzzzz. XPing, oh my god, zzzzzzzzzz.), but so many yummy fire crystals! Seems funny to think about keeping going for the crystals, but I might. c.c (Plus I kind of like you all. ;) :) )

Gadalar != Eadwyn. >_>

*kicks Gadalar for hogging the sexiest General* ; ;

(almost twice as long as usual)

Lightweight. We only went maybe 1.5x the usual time, not 2x. :P

XP feels slow though.

Compared to pre-ToAU in a non-burn party, it's fast. Given some meleeburns in ToAU can break 15k/hour it's slow... But I'd rather not have that kind of OMGmustgetstupidhighchain!!1!!11oneorz mentality.

Oh, you're right. I thought it was twice as long!

But I'd rather not have that kind of OMGmustgetstupidhighchain!!1!!11oneorz mentality.

That'd be very stressful, but more important you might end up eating dirt! ; ;

This may sound odd, but I think the Trolls are slightly lower level if you're fighting the ones immediately behind the back gate vs. the ones at the front gate. (The front gate being the one closest to the staging point and has the Wamouracampe camp before the Trolls). Why do I point this out? Mostly for the pacing, really. If you feel like the battles are prolonged, try going to the back half of the area and whack on those Trolls for a bit.

For BRD soloing, I'd say bounce it off Valamir. I've seen him solo some things that were a big boggling (like the Minstral Coat NM), but he's um.. realistic? He could prolly help you decide which mobs would be soft targets for you :3

Yeah, we've been smacking the trolls immediately inside the 'back door'. The PUP/WAR/DRK/RDM combo keeps a steady poprate for us and 150-200xp a kill. They're not as squishy as puks and diamondhide can make them a royal bitchkitty to kill sometimes (the RDM loves to spam Cure4+Diamondhide), but the WAR and DRK are so easy on my shadows, I don't care~ X3 I'm wary of trying the front door if only 'cause I'm not much of a fan of the PLDs and MNKs I saw over that way while I was mining. PUPs are bad enough! ; ;

I have no idea where we camp! I just follow Nai's tail. (I don't have a map + I like Nai's tail! Win-win.)

And I'll poke Val next time I see him. :)
