Up…and Down
Smooth would be a good way to describe how my levelling has been progressing as BLM; lucky would be a good word also as I’ve had many a good party. :o
First came the LS party I had with Millionsknives and Khaite which went well, even though I was on a different PC and had to use the keyboard which I’m not used to. Amith came along as SMN also to help PL us which was hot. :x The trend of good parties continued – even the one that decided to form an alliance to include one extra person turned out to be decent in the end. It wasn’t all peachy though. @_@ It really does take a lot to get me frustrated but this never fails to do it:

Apologies for coming across like an arse there but, you know, I worked hard to wear that Astral Ring and I’ll continue to do so, methinks. :x
Here’s another crappy picture of me standing a good 10 units of distance away from a mob so I don’t get hit by its AOE TP move.

Fun times. :x
Anyway, once I managed to ding level 17 I figured I’d get myself to Bastok to quest Warp. Easy, right? :x
So I head solo out of Dunes but as I make my way through Konschtat I get aggro, die and delevel. @_@ It was at this point that I asked the LS for help. Khaite was kind enough to make his way to Dunes and help me out. The trouble was; we were both level 16 and 17 respectively. It didn’t take us long to get aggro in Dunes – we did survive and make it to Konchtat though due to lots of Provokes and Binds. :x
But no amount of provokes or binds could save us from the Tremor Ram that we managed to get the attention of as we ran through Konschtat. I mean…I don’t even know how, I guess we weren’t paying attention or something but, yeesh, making it through Dunes and then dying in Konschtat is not something I want to make a habit out of. @_@
It, er…did happen again though when we aggroed a Gob that linked.
I couldn’t brain that day. D:
Eventually Datsuki (who else?) did escort me from Dunes to Bastok to Selbina and back and I finally got my warp scroll.
Thank yooo-
I have to say that I do love warp. :D It’s such a nice feeling to be able to warp at any time – provided I have the MP, of course. *_*
Anyhoo, after I rebuilt my macro set (I’ve made use of the /macro set <number> function so I can have all of my spells on a macro; I’ve made a main menu too and everything. D:) I decided to get myself level 18 which I did with ease after finding yet another great party. @_@
At this point I asked a couple of people to help me acquire the items needed for the sub job quest, but to no avail. ’twas at this point that I decided to just send a /tell to a random level 75 player in the hope that they’d help me, which they did. :D
Her name is Guncel (I say ‘her’, but I’ve no idea which gender they are in that so called real life. :x). Not only did she help me get all of the items needed for the sub job quest; she was also kind enough to hand me a pearl to her linkshell and offer to help me obtain the items needed for Aht Urghan access. ^_^;

Maybe she knew of my habit of dying if I attempt to do anything other than stand at the outpost. The force is strong with this one. :x
Anyway, yeah…I…don’t really know what to say other than thank you and if you ever need a helping hand doing anything in-game then please don’t hesitate at all to contact me. ^_^
Now I get to do this all again as WHM!
