Déjà Vu For Two

My foray into the world of WHM started well; I ran myself into East Ronfaure and started to kill Pugs (<3) just like I did a couple of months prior as I was starting BLM; I swiftly made my way to level five as I used my Empress Band and stuff, innit?

The day after, as I was making my way to Ghelsba Outpost, I received a tell from a summoner called Cyrex who suggested – in his own special way – that we duo. To this, I said, “yes,”…true story. Also, Datsuki had offered to PL me and – of course – I never refuse her company so she came along too. :O She quickly got bored though as Cyrex and I were racking up our XP count with minimal assistance. :/

I made soooo much xp.

…

Oh, Ghelsba Outpost…I’m sorry for ever having made it out as though your choice of mob placement was anything but delightful. Yes, it’s compact, but you know what? I like it that way, really. It wasn’t your fault I died so much. I’ll be honest with you, I kind of suck. Dude, seriously D: I wasn’t in a good state of mind that day; let’s never fight again. /hugs Ghelsba Outpost.

Anywizzles, I did eventually hit level 11 a few days later at which point I headed to the Dunes to seek. :D

And seek…

And seek. :/

I did finally get a party though and a certain Mithra gave me a pleasant surprise by turning up to PL us. ^_^ Thanks to her I managed to gain a few levels which was most welcome after so much seeking. @_@

After the party finished Sylbianna watched me solo some lizards. That is all.

The following weeks after that I logged on randomly to seek now and again without any real success. I did manage to make a party once and we got some good xp but, on the whole, I found myself seeking…a lot. D:

The cycle of mindless seeking continued; until! I got myself a delicious blind invite. To be honest I don’t mind blind invites, a party’s a party, but this party was special. :o Here it is described in picture form.

A warm welcome. :x

…interesting party set-up but, you know, I’m an easy going kind of guy; this could work.

Yeah, this…not so much. I don’t recommend pulling leeches. Ever. Especially not at the oasis camp and, er, especially when no-one can voke. ^_^;

10 minutes of doing nothing followed by a wipe or so later…

That is the first time I have ever actually disbanded an xp party before. It was never this bad on Shiva, I swear. >_>;

The day after this a similar situation arose when I was blindly invited to a party that contained two other members. The leader thought it would be a good idea to fight lizards in the tunnel. They linked. Then he screamed at us to cure him. Then we all died. Then he got upset and said he was going to solo. :/ Well, good luck to ya ‘cos I wouldn’t have the nerve to solo a group of lizards in a small area like that; I think they kind of have a penchant for linking together or some shit. D:

/sh CURE ME!!!

After that I didn’t log back on until myself, Datsuki and Millionsknives decided to {Gather together.} both in-game and IRL. :O

We decided to trio in Dunes as BLM, WAR and COR respectively. It went pretty well and after a while Millionsknives decided to change from COR to his über RDM so he could PL both Datsuki and I which was nice. :O

I managed to get BLM to 20 which I was very happy about (woo, I get to level BLM in a new area! :D).

The day after, Datsuki and I decided to duo together as we both had WHM at 15. However, on my way to La Theine I saw something most appalling. D:

My eyes~! Seriously. D: This sickens me. For Sandy not to be in control of Ronfaure it just…I can’t find the words. @_@; Moving on (I can never really move on; but I don’t think that you, the reader, would enjoy being subjected to a 300 word analysis in regards to how utterly wrong it is that Windy had control of Ronfaure! I’m sorry…I got overwhelmed for a sec there) er…where was I? Oh, right; Datsuki and I headed to The Ephemere; our favourite levelling spot in La Theine.

I do declare it went well! Well…it did until we attracted the attention of a Water Elemental. After that it didn’t go so well. >_>;

Aaaanyway Datsuki suggested that we form a party, which we did. :o It didn’t start out so well…

Things did pick up eventually and we managed to obtain a decent amount of xp. @_@ Just as it seemed the party was breaking (view screenshot below; I don’t make a habit of meleeing. >_>) Datsuki managed to grab us a Ninja and Millionsknives decided to come along also as RNG.

Soon afterwards Kroeger and Othelia joined us. This changed our xp session from ‘party’ to a 5/6 Suicide Moogles ‘par-tay’. :O

The result of all of this? 18 WHM~ That means I can say goodbye to the Dunes for a long time as I level BLM to 37; which is a welcome development, for sure. >_>;

So~ with BLM at 20 and WHM at 18, the next step for me was to make my way to Jeuno. ^_^ Kroeger and Datsuki both offered to help and I was safe and/or sound in their company all the way to Jeuno.

Soon afterwards I bought myself a bunch of new gear; really, I did need to. >_>; Datsuki was also kind enough to buy me a Mohbwa Sash which made me, “Ee~” with glee. :x

So here’s your new look Garcie; ready to take on all of Qufim. :D

Hmm…I don’t appear to have any money for food now that I’ve bought this equipment…

And, er… I guess I should get my chocobo license first. >_>;

Maybe I should do a few rank mission before I level also…

Murg. @_@
