Today's purpose was to go to Windhurst to get some spells I can't get in San D; Aero & Water.

When I logged on I was in King Rampiert's Tomb. I was there yesterday looking for a magicked skull. I'm trying to gather all items for subjob quest. I met my bro on my way out. He knows how 2 get 2 Windh. We head twds W. Ronf from E Ronf. Then thru latheine to dunes. No killing on the way. We were on assignment. Once we get 2 Dunes we make a stop @ oasis. My bro said, "y don't we party 4 an hr." Now i'm party leader. Besides my bro - lvl 15 PLD, I found a BLM, RNG, WAR, & SCH. Then I booted the BLM. He was just standin around doin nothin'. Y have some1 in party that does nothin. scream Anyhoo, we find a WHM. xd She had a bonus. A lvl 75 RDM. Since the 75 can't join party, she pwrlvld us. whee
Then our SCH had a friend stop by the oasis. This friend happened 2 b lvl 75 WHM. biggrin . Can you imagine?!? 2 hi lvl people helpin us out. So of course we got the IT gobs & flies. That's when I lvld 2 16. Now we r enjoying ourselves, I didn't realize we've partied for 2 hrs now. Then our RNG & WHM had to go. But we were able 2 find another RNG & WHM. But our 2 pwrlvlrs had 2 go 2. So we partied 4 another half hr b4 I started 2 get tired. I told them I was goin' 2 leave in .5 hrs. So our puller pulled the hardest gob in the Dunes, gob leecher. We got our asses kicked. My bro died. The rest the party made the run 2 Selbina. Me, my a@@ was running in circles bcuz my joystick got stuck. scream So of course, the gob killed me. However, it benefited me at the time. I was ready 2 go anyway & that gob gave me a quick direct path home to San D & I didn't delvl. I partied so long that my assignment was derailed. Never made it to Windh. But I got a scroll of Protectra tho. Not like I can use it. It's a WHM spell only.

More to come....

Played: 1.5 hrs

Today, I just went on to check my status since I died yesterday. My bro also tells me that I should have a new WS - Red Lotus Blade since I lvld to 16. & of course, I didn't have it. I think RDM doesn't get it until lvl 20.

I ended up going to the AH in San D'. Some1 put up a scroll of AERO! xd Unfortunately, WATER was not there. crying I don't know y it's so hard to get that scroll!! So with my new spell handy I decided 2 go try it out. So I head to LaTheine. Killing in W or E Ronf is a waste of time 4 me I get no experience. As I run to LaTheine, I am reading my crazy linkshell chat. I luv my linkshell, they r hilarious. I get to LaTheine & healed some people. I'm such a good RDM. I find some Birds, Rabbits, & Orcs to test AERO on. It's pretty cool. So I head back home to San D.

Played: 4 hrs

Well today I decided 2 play 2 gain experience points. I wanted 2 level. So I leave my mog house & head 2 the V. Dunes. I did it all by myself. I was so proud of myself. smile I went 2 the Oasis (crab camp) 1st. Then I decided 2 try 2 get 2 Selbina by myself. I did it. smile I am so amazed @ my bravery. The Gobs that r in the V.Dunes r ridiculous. They aggro @ sight. So I'm in Selbina. I look around 4 a while then I decided 2 form a party. Woo Hoo party over here!!! biggrin I manage to make a full party. I head back 2 Oasis in V.Dunes 2 meet my party. We get 2 fighting. Then somehow our puller pulled the wrong gob. So we had 2 zone 2 Selbina. But by time we reached back 2 Oasis, we lost our Warrior. He called us a bunch of Newbs & ditched. Oh btw, I 4got 2 tell u that I died on the run 2 Selbina. gonk Good thing 1 of our members had a high lvl job that could raise me. So we found a replacement, a dancer. Well back 2 Oasis like I said b4. We fought a valiant battle. We were fighting a Damslefly, but all of a sudden 3 Leeches attacked us. U guessed it, we all died!! sad So we laid around chatting. 1 member had 2 leave, then 2 other left. So it was down 2 3 of us. 1 of our old members came by & raised us. Yay!! Then he got me the Damslefly Worm that I was looking for the other day. We avoided all Gobs & then we found 3 more members. We go back to Oasis. Some of our new members were having difficulty getting 2 camp. Those darn Gobs. So while one of our guys went 2 help out, 3 of us decided to try to fight a Ghoul so I could get me a magicked skull. I was so close 2 dying again, but I survived. surprised I also got the skull. whee So now I have all 3 items needed 4 my lvl 18 subjob quest in Selbina. Whoo Hoo. Then we start fighting again. But somehow the stupid Leeches @ Camp keeps aggroing. So we kept zoning. It was getting annoying. So we ended staying close to Selbina 4 quick zoning. By then it was getting late I had to log off. I am now 680 pts away from lvling. Argh! I would've lvld if I didn't die 2x.

Played: 2 consecutive days at odd times

Finally... LVL 17 - RDM - Rank 2

I played 4 at least 2 - 3 hours 4 the past 2 days. I will go by day. I have been a bit busy 2 blog about it.

Day 1:
On July 2nd, I decided 2 explore LaTheine. I have only gone there on my way 2 the Dunes. Just the basic areas. So I'm in LaTheine chilling. Killing as I make my way 2wds the Holla teleport temple. On my way, I level to 17. Finally!!!!!!!! I avoided 2 Battering Rams. I almost walked rite into one. It came out of nowhere. W/ my quick reflexes I was able 2 dodge it w/o it seeing me, lol. I get 2 the teleport temple. Then my stomach started to growl. I was about 2 shut down when people now started 2 ask me 2 party. I told everyone 2 wait 2 hrs, I was going 2 eat. So I shut down @ the teleport temple. No enemies come up there. I was planning on getting back on that night, but I got lazy. I fell asleep.

Day 2:
My best friend named SL (I will not reveal his real name) came by 2 visit me. He also 2 came 2 fix my sound. I've been playing the game all this time w/o sound. I didn't have any warnings that I was being aggro'd before. My only warning was when they already hitting me. So he fixed the sound. Then I went onto FF 2 c if I can hear anything. Well I got on & I was @ the temple. I didn't hear any music. So I was running 2wds home so I can hear the music. On my way, I avoided another Battering Ram, while I was showing SL the ropes. On my way, I finally got aggro'd by an orc. I didn't hear it. So the sounds were not working. I defeated the orc in 2 swings. Yes, I'm that good, lol. I get into W.Ronf, I decide 2 shut down again 2 c y the sounds were not working when it was working on my computer generally. I figured it out by going 2 the config 4 FF. Then I decided 2 get back on. Now I wanted 2 go get an enemy 2 aggro me. I ran 2 Ghelbsa Outpost. SL is still watching me. I stepped in front of every Orc. I healed in front of every Orc. No aggro. crying They just walked around me. I couldn't get not 1 Orc 2 aggro me. scream So I left Ghelsba & went into W.Ronf. 2 get a Goblin 2 aggro me. Success. exclaim I heard it b4 it hit me. Then I went back 2 the castle. I checked the auction house. I finally got Water xd & I bought Slow & Barsleep. Then I shutdown again. I just went on 2 show SL the game & fix the sound. I'm trying 2 get SL 2 play FFXI instead of WOW.
