I got my Black Mage up to level 18. My target was 17 so I could learn warp. Good thing about warp is I can use it to teleport myself over far distances in future.
Now that I’m done with levelling my Black Mage, I went back to playing my Dark Knight. Had a tough time waiting for a other parties to invite me. And then a Japanese player messaged me (he knew a bit of english), asking if I would join him in Korroloka Tunnels. But the thing is I have to run to Bastok, which is rather far from where I currently am, Selbina. He said he wouldn’t mind waiting so without further ado, I set off to Bastok.
There were 2 other Japanese already there. Another English player, a White Mage, was invited and we all waited in Bastok Mines as party leader searched for a player to fill the last slot in the party. The English player got tired of waiting and left. But it wasn’t long till we found a Japanese to replace him. Good thing because White Mages are rather scarce.
The last person, a Warrior finally reached Bastok. He’s new to the game and it was funny to see how he acted the way I did when I first played the game and also as a Warrior. It was fun, teaching him to Skillchain and Magic Bursting with the other Black Mage. Note: Magic bursts don’t work if someone activates another Weapon Skill after the desired Skillchain and if 2 spells are too close to each other. I managed to pull off a second Magic Burst with the Black Mage on 1 skill chain~
Died twice and had the Summoner go back and change her job into a level 40 White Mage and come back to raise us. Felt a little bad and apologised but they were forgiving. ^^
At the end, the party leader brought us to the Altepa Desert for the teleport crystal and to Rabao to buy maps for Korroloka Tunnels and some other places. The party ended at 3am Singapore time, 4am Japan time. 4 hours of sleep till work but it was worth it.
Able to recognise most of Hiragana and Katakana now, still too slow in reading. A bit of Kanji too since they’re so “Mandarin”. I just need to learn more words. No point being able to read but not know the meaning.
