Star Wars Episode 3

And so I’m back from watching the movie.

There are 2 movies in this world where the audience will applaud when the show starts, and when the show ends.

1. Lord of the Rings.

2. Star Wars

The rest can kiss Chewbacca’s huge furry ass.

Lotsa accomplishments

Accomplished quite a lot over the weekend. Feels like I’m being compensated for all the wasted time waiting in Jeuno for a party invite. Here’s a quick summary…

Well, first, I got my cooking skill to 60! Now working on guild points to get Raw Fish Handling key item so I can craft sushi.

I was fortunate enough to get invites from the same people. I think I performed well enough during my first exp sessions for them to remember my name. ^^
I dealt 700-1000 damage just with Souleater+Guillotine. About 400-500 with Guillotine alone. All Trick Attacked onto my tank.

Just when I was 97 exp left to hit level 66, and we were fighting the last Processionaire for my level up, a Water Elemental spawned on top of my mages!
White mage finished casting Escape and everyone warped out safely. But then our tank, also our leader, got disconnected and never came back for 5 minutes.
Since 3 other members had to go in 20 minutes I felt it was best we disband. Suggested this in party chat to which everyone agreed.

On the other hand, Evasama had rounded up a few people for a skill up party at the same area where I was, so I joined them.
Heh, my wish of levelling up in a skill up PT is fulfilled!

Now that I’ve hit level 66, the cap on my Great Sword skill is raised. I can proceed past the 224 mark to hit 225, just nice for Spinning Slash weaponskill.
I heard it does up to 1500 damage and ends with a Light (level 3 skillchain) for another 1500 damage.

Later that day, while heading back to Windurst to check my stats from the Event Moogle, a linkshell member Trebla called out for me that there’s a Windurst Mission 8-1 shout going on in Jeuno.
We both got into the party which consists of mostly Galkas. A few of the Galkas needed to do this mission and most of their Galka Linkshell members had come to help us out. It was fun playing with them.

After we finished M8-1 and are on our way back to Windurst, I asked the leader when will he be doing M8-2, last mission for Rank 9. A discussion began and we decided to do it since one of the members had her White Mage up to level 60 and could Teleport-Vahzl us. We had to go Fei’Yin as part of the mission.

Back in my Lineage2 Japan Open Beta days, we had farming sessions together. About 10+ of us, 1-2 Americans, 1-2 Singaporeans, the rest Japanese players. At the end of the session, when everyone bids each other farewell, there’s always
this sad feeling like we’ll never see one another again. I felt this again when saying goodbyes to the other players that we did this Rank 9 missions with. It was a fun filled 5 hour run with funny conversations along the way ( T-T). Bah, forgot to take a screenshot of everyone together.

Chef’s Hat

In order to get this hat, you need to trade in items specified by a representative from the Cooking Guild. The required items change everyday, 11pm Singapore time.

The last item I needed to get 70,000 guild points to redeem the hat was a Icecap Rolanberry. One of it’s ingredients, Crawler Egg, is low in supply but I managed to buy all 10 from the Jeuno Auction House.

So out of 10 crafts, I got a HQ (Snowy Rolanberry) and a break. But finally, I now have enough guild points to redeem my Chef’s Hat.

Behold!

Blogging

A Singaporean who is currently studying abroad received a legal threat from an agency which he blogged about.

In his blog, he merely criticised their scholarship system.

I never had the chance to read his entry before he shut down his blog but here in my blog, I am going to criticise this issue.

Instead of making any effort to have an email conversation with AcidFlask, perhaps to help each other understand what’s wrong, you simply abuse your power, and demand your lawyers that they sue some helpless person because of their comments.

Real men don’t abuse their power to solve simple issues.

If you think you’re right, prove it.

If the person who accused you based his accusation on inaccurate information, inform him.

Only when communication fails do you call in your mommies to clean up the mess for you.

If everyone starts sueing one another for small things like this, we will all start living on the streets whereas lawyers will live in castles.
