Games and a couple levels, whee!

The minigames are pretty fun, I've got enough for 2 decks of cards but no complete omok set yet, I'm still huting for a table. I have a ton of octo pieces, a couple pig, only 2 slimes and no muchrooms yet, I'd like to find a table and make an octo/slime set. I actually kind of enjoy the memory game moderately more than omok, but both are good games. I'm so-so at them, sometimes I do well and sometimes I get my butt kicked, my win ratio is only a bit higher than loss. If you glance away at the wrong moment when the cards are revealed for memory you're rather screwed sweatdrop Channel 1 usually has a good number of people playing in the Game Zone if you can't find someone to play with, I usually have people join my games within a short time though be careful if you have lag problems to not be towards the center of the group, I had a game lost due to lag freeze-up.
And finally, last night, I reached lvl 40 *squeeee* xd Yay new armor! I feel somewhat powerful! I went and killed green drakes for a wee bit, I can get them in about 4 DSs which isn't too bad. Things die slightly easier. Got my warrior up to lvl 15, so she has slightly better equips and can fame, probably won't go farther with her unless I'm bored but will at least do the lvl 15 quests for some extra stuff. Still need to do lvl 20 quests with my mage... maybe will work on that today.
Hopefully can meet up with some people Saturday even if a good number of people can't make it until next weekend.

Oh yeah, I forgot I got the fun fish spear from bevee! I also broke down and bought a surfboard, I think I paid like 85k, maybe too much but meh now I have one, I knew I wouldn't have time to keep hunting for it.
I'm getting ready for Otakon right now so havn't had much time to be on, though I'll catch the next meetup again on Saturday 3nodding Darnit don't think I'll be able to get another level before then tho. I went to the one on the 6th and it was fun! Got some new victims for my buddy list, and we went to mushmom and split up and did some ant tunnel evil eye action, ended up farther in in the cursed sanctuary a couple times and even balrog appeared once (but he went off the screen and god killed before I saw him gonk ) then ended up in boars with the couple people left, ended up with more exp than I'd hoped which is good 3nodding I think I'm up to 50% now? Nothing else new, I havn't played hardly at all since then. (Miss you guys!)

Finally some progress! And earring luff

Finally got to level 41 last night, squee! Now back to having 17% exp sweatdrop Man once you hit 40 its sooo sloooow. Though I think I was jinxed at 40, I died at least 5-6 times which really didnt' help, I'm glad to be through with that level. I went back to Ossyria the other night, I hadn't been in a while and felt like a change of scenery, its been several levels since my last visit. I'm happy to say that things have gotten a bit easier which made me happy 3nodding I can take down star pixies without too much trouble tho they bloody hurt. Hunted lil unicos for a while Then went over to the tower to collect stuff so I can stock up on tower scrolls. Watched Coal and 'Uta try to kill AFK people in cloud park for a bit (I shall never AFK there now.) The fought with leatties for a while, I like them. Killed a couple jr. yetis for kicks but too hard to be worth it seriously. My damage is still horribly inconsistant, I do 100-750 damage now sweatdrop Your hp and mp are deturmined by class and not stats right? (unless of course you have a skill to boost them.) I was idly wondering if thieves or bowmen get higher hp/mp since neither of those seem to be great, I know warriors rule on hp and mages on mp.
Having a really hard time deciding where to put my skil points, I have them really spread out right now. I think I'm going to put some more points in Bow Mastery next level to hopefully bring up lower damage a bit. Arrow Bomb is the bomb so I've been putting at least 1 point in it almost every level. I put some in Soul Arrrow because that's just necessary, and I've been enjoying using Bow Booster so I put a point in that last level, its great for a boost when taking on a mob. But I"ve seen Final Attack kicking in more and that's really sweet, I only have a couple points in it so I'd like to boost it more too. Argh so many choices! Last level I did 1FA/BB/AB and next level I'm thinking of doing 2 BM/ 1AB and then the level after that back to boosting FA. I dunno I'm always changing my mind since its a long road to get there.
Oh yes, Coal and Uta kindly gave me some of the Blue Moon earrings!! heart heart Those are one of my very favorite earrings in the game so I was really happy! My earring collection grows... I wish I had space to keep more with me. I think I have an extra pair of Emeralds, and now I have an extra pair of Cat Eyes from the unicos (and of course like everyone a extra pair of weight earrings, tho I let my low level chars wear some of my extra low ones), so if anyone is interested in those LMK. I'd kinda like to trade for the earrings I still want, here's a list-

I never liked the amethyst much so didn't bother to get them
I'd like to have a pair of Gold Rings, I doubt that'll be too hard
Lightning would also be fun but not priority
I kinda like the Saphires so will see if I can get eventually
I think I'm going to pass on the pansy earrings, I don't care for purple
Skull earrings I'll try to do the quest for when the time comes
When I get closer I want to get the red heart and crystal flower or holy cross rings, I'm not sure which I like more yet sice I dont' see them worn a lot

So basically I have all the ones lvl 40 and below other than what I mentioned. I'm not going to worry about anything higher than lvl 55 since its going to be a long while before I get to 50 even.

I think I may work on my mage a bit today since it'll probably be too crowded during the day to fight at the tower or unicos (why do people call them kitties?) with my bowman, I like late night when things are empty to do serious fighting and there's not much else to do it Ossyria since most of it is still too hard.

Yesh oh Bowmaster Oggy... though I really can't see how you got so far without more powerful Arrow Bomb! I shall put more points in Mastery next level... its just it levels so slowly! I had a hard time convincing myself it was worth it for a bit of a lower damage boost when you only get a tiny bit of mastery for 2 points since its every other one. I just wanted to get AB to 15 and leave it there (before MP cost goes up) then concentrate on other skills.
Lunar Pixies... the Star ones I can take but I havn't tried them yet. But if I can catch you on again I'm willing to have a go! I'm in El Nath right now tho, I need to go back since there's not much point in being there anyhow.

*edits post* That was always an 8! No really! ninja
I was very tired when I typed that up...

I'm currently shopping for a Blue Luimari/Lumati, I found one I want at sleepywood.net +4 str 59 wdef +1 avoid 130k but sw went down so hopefully I can still get it... its the best def one I've seen and I think its clean, I didn't get an answer on that.

I need to get another pair of decent red white-bottom shes and try the scrolling thing over again (only 1 of 3 60%s took and there's only 5 slots)... I've had too many fail on my current ones to be worth continuing with them xp Dammit jump/speed scrolls are so expensive too. Maybe I'll just get a bunch of them and try the first slot 10% like you did, they're pretty cheap and 10% scrolls are always less.

*stares at your hour count for maple story for the week in your sig* That's more than a JOB. eek
