Of Double Promotions & Other Future Plans

I just created a new character in Cadmus last night, which was a female Dark Elf. I used the same IGN of my Human Knight in Aria as her name, as suggested by my friend Alcarcalimo, who also re-rolled as a DE, in order not to ruin my reputation. During that time, I finished the tasks given by the Newbie Guide, from the Mass of Darkness quest to the Spirit of Craftsman quest. Then, a while ago, as the final task, I accomplished the Offspring of Nightmares quest. By the time my DE reached lvl 18, I decided to take on the Path of the Palus Knight, since I wanted to become a Bladedancer like him. It really took me a while to finish it, but yet again, it was worth it. Here's the proof:

Since the Smash 'em Pumpkins event was on-going, I was able to collect pollen in order to trade in for seeds. Everytime I had the seed, I would summon it, feed it with pollen 5 times, then attack in order for it to open. Of all my attempts there, the young squash transformed into a Low Quality Squash, then after I cracked the squash, I received potions as reward. I'm hoping that someday, I'll receive better rewards.

I also used my Elven archer in Aria, and just like what happened to my Palus Knight, it really took me a while to finish the job change quest to become an Elven Scout. Here's the screenie:

Talk about double promotion! Wohoo!!

As for my knight in Aria, she just received her 60k+ Ancient Adena reward for participating in the Seven Signs event. I noticed that as she ran towards the Priest of Dawn to receive the gift, one of the Orators of Revelation buffed me with a buff skill known as Blessing of Revelation, which decreases weight penalty & increases resistances to debuffs. I checked on the items that can be exchanged for that currency, and one of them was the Party Mask. I really wanted to take it, but the downside is that the AA required for it is 600k. Yikes! I guess I have to participate again in the event to get more AAs.

Since my semestral break will start on Monday, I'll do 2 quests & the shortcut job change quest in order to become a Paladin, complete quests for my Warder & Elven Scout, and even to try out new skills for my Palus Knight in Cadmus in preparation for the new set of tasks to be completed by her.

I guess I'm satisfied right now with the results. Time to go! ^^

Cadmus, Cadmus... Should I go there?

I just read the latest post in Alcarcalimo's L2 blog that he'll re-roll in the new server, Cadmus, tomorrow as an Assassin (I'm not sure if he'll be like his dark-haired soon-to-be AW Morfindien, though). Yeah, you heard that right, that means that his Bladedancer will still be in (permanent) hiatus mode, although he'll still use it sparingly from time to time. If you want to read about it, look at the link below:

Despite the feeling that I'm excited to try out the new server and to re-roll as a Bladedancer (it was because of the cool dance buffs), I was currently in the state of anxiety. It was because of these reasons:

- My knight has 2 more levels to go before she'll become a Paladin, and I need to ask my HO clanmates for 3m Adena for the sake of completing the shortcut quest.

- My archer has to complete the job change quest to become an Elven Scout.

- I couldn't leave my clanmates behind in Aria, so I had to stay there again after I tried out my new toon in Cadmus.

- I cannot log in tomorrow, for I still have to focus in school, so I'm assuming that he'll be far ahead of me, and it'll be hard for me to catch up with him.

- I'm still thinking of what quests to do for my Kamael Warder.

If that would be the case that he'll leave his characters behind in Aria & that he'll be lavishing the pleasure of starting over in Cadmus and stay there until eternity, then that means our friendship will no longer be crystal clear from now on, with the focus blurred to the point of blindness and I'm not happy about it. I hate to say this and to somewhat offend him, and please pardon me, but I can't help it. If that's what he really wants, so be it. I hope we'll still keep in touch, though... >_<


Gotta go to sleep now... I'm so tired *yawns*...
