Affs go the dreams

     Well, my mage got a deaded, or two.  :/  I was hunting in the dragon lairs and I had just solo'd two dragon lords at once.  Feeling like one bad mage as I was exiting the cave another dragon lord appeared and one hitted me.  OMG those things sure do not like me.  So that knocked me back from level 66 to 65.  So then as I was out rebuying blessings I come across a dead body.  Nothing extra special, like 2k in botted gold was on the corpse but then some level 100+ mage appeared and told me to give them the loot.  I was waiting for battle signs to dissapear so I could just log out when he started tossing SD's on me.  Affs, I had only rebought 2 of my blessings and this fark decides it's a good idea to help me get downgraded to level 64.  OMG.  Well, anyways, magic level has suffered severly but so far I have gotten back up to level 65.  This game is too hard.  I hope that guy gets deleted for cheating so fast.  I found out where he lives though and I've got a few pk chars stationed there to check if him or any of his friends are ever there.  It's a pretty remote house around the inside of Kazordoon where I would imagine they might think it be okay to afk mana sit outside the door there with a small risk of getting pk'ed afk, but their odds of survival with that plan I hope to prove wrong ASAP.  Good luck and I hope your drops are good.

Calculating Magic Level



     I've been playing Tibia for a pretty long while now.  The whole entire time just running around bumping into new people and always discovering these funny new places.  Sometimes you run across  fascinating things like players who think that it is a good idea to run around with way too powerful shields.  Strong shields which are quite a bit for someone want to drop while running around trying to get a thrill killing noobs.

     One would have to be insane to consider it a good idea to slay other players while carrying such a valued item because being the first one to become agressive on other players makes it so that you are now being vulnerable to player attacks.

     Too make a long story short I'll just say that it was a fun day the day I stumbled just north of north bridge and all the way left past the rabbits, snakes and bears at warwolf mountain.  I met a level 23 red skull player there and when he fell he dropped a crown shield.  I just think that it is awesome when your Damage Per Second (DPS) is so much higher than their current healing capabilities.
     Consider http://www.tibia-stats.com/index.php?akcja=spellDmgCalc .  It can tell us that a level 23 mage with magic level 23 can use the Intense Healing healing spell for a max heal of 168.  The same site will also tell me that with Magic Level 52 my Death Magic for PVP will hit 260 max with Sudden Death runes.

  Apparently if you drink enough manafluids on this game then you can get into the "Ha!Ha! I got Top 300 Magic Level" on this game.

http://en.tibiaml.com/ml_calculator.php tells me that it will cost 112,500 gold pieces to get from my current Magic Level 53 to 54.  It will then cost 123,750 to get from 54 to 55.

136,125 for 56.
149,760 for 57.
164,745 for 58.
181,215 for 59.
199,305 for 60.
219,240 for 61.
241,155 for 62.
265,275 for 63.
291,825 for 64.
320,985 for 65.
353,070 for 66.
388,395 for 67.
     So, I'm getting there.  It might take awhile but I think that I can do it.  I've gotten top 300 distance before on my paladin and I'm currently top 300 Axe on my knight.  Top 300 fishing would be nice to get.  I'd think it would be neat to have top axe,club,fish,fist and...Sword?!(really hard to do because everyone is trying to get top sword) all on one character.  I think it would be easiest to do all of these on a knight character, because their melee skills rise the fastest, and they have 4 of them, compared to paladin and mages having one skill that will raise the fastest.  They could all do fishing but I think that I'm going to concentrate that one on my knight as well just so someday when I look him up on tibiaring it will show all of those skills listed together xD

Advancement on Entropia

     Well I've been taking screenshots of some of my skills on Entropia and I thought that after almost a month it was time to compare some of the advancements.  All of these advancements where made doing nothing but sweating for free.  The higher they go the better my character account becomes and the better I get at sweating for longer, as they will be less likely to kill me.  I'll still possibly keep falling down but you can always just revive at the nearby teleporter for free.  However, if I'm getting knocked out less often that all means that I can sweat for slightly longer which mean higher profitability.
courage 113
athletics 97
dexterity 60
perception 36
alertness 31
bravado 24

courage 152
athletics 134
dexterity 69
alertness 42
perception 39
bravado 33

     The one that I am mainly paying attention to is athletics, which is nice to see that it has gone up some.  Quit a lot actually, about 37 points in almost a month.  I think that this is a desirable skill to have because I think that it makes you run faster.  No idea what courage affects, I'll have to look these up.  The game says that courage is the ability to challenge danger and perform under pressure.  Maybe that means that the avatar is less likely to loose focus when being hit by a mob and be able to continue sweating without breaking concentration.  I can't really find anymore information on the courage skill at the moment besides just that general definition, but I did read about how storing your items in your storage boxes and carrying less will allow you to run faster, which is good because that's what I'm all about.  Until I can get a car I'm just gonna' see if I can get to where I can sprint faster than some of those cars because that would be hilarious.  Theoretically you might even think that it's possible as long as there is no skill cap, and just think what that would do for PVP, you'd be one of the hardest people to hit.

Drunk with Power

     Well last night I started out playing around on my level 8 paly.  He's pretty bad.  Kicked off all updating my trolling threads on the forum using my broken English because I believes that it are the fun.  Well anyway, I got to the point where I thought that suiciding to a troll would make my character page all the more amusing just in case anybody happened to glance at it, they'd think that I was such a nub!
     So I went about out on my quest of finding this troll and dropping all of my armor and letting him kill me.  As I advanced further into the dungeon what did I see but some careless level 17 knight just standing there.  I didn't know if his bot had crashed or if he had just went afk because his mom was yelling at him or some bull.  So he's all standing there getting attacked by like two(2) bugs, a rat and MY TROLL!  So what do I do?  Whatever some bored player might do on his level 8 troll char.  Open Fire!
     So I'm just standing there all white skulled chuckin' spears at him.  They're hardly even connecting, I'm a bit out of practice and I've been getting killed a lot lately running around town causing mischief.  I feel kind of stupid about it actually.  Plummeting from near 60 distance down to around 44 now.  Sadface.  The last few hits blaze up in the 30's though and he's dead.  He must've been a bot because the lootbag I found myself busy burying moments later contained straight gold.  Like 800 worth, that and a rope.  Someone actually playing would probably have food or a shovel mixed in there with some weird creature products or something.
     Well, he's dead and at that point I probably should've just suicided on the trolls as planned, but I always like the thrill of trying to outlive a white skull, so I just walked around the cave slowly killing trolls while still wearing my shield and training spears on full defense.  Klotariox Rican comes back anyway and is all 18:54 Klotariox Rican [16]: ahahaha as he tears me up with his serpent sword.  Frikkin' botter, so I run him around a little bit but he catches me and gets all of my empty vials so.........
     I'm gonna' go check out the new Tibia Flash Client they just released.  Play on!

Making Money Playing Video Games

     Now this one is cool.  I've been at this one for quite a while now off and on.  Well, more on than off here lately.  Entropia Universe is pretty fun.  Just the idea that everything done inside the game universe has the potential of earning money in the real world is so exciting.  For example, you could start out with nothing and spend like an entire 24 hours sweating non-stop and possibly walk away with 10$ USD.  Sure, in order to do this you would have to get really luck and find all of the right sweating spots and buyers, but the potential is amazing.  I assume that the players who admit to being able to make a profit now hunting on this game say they have 'invested' thousands of dollars to get where they are at now, but I think that they are just the games promoters.  That saying, I don't know if I'll ever get any profit out of this game, but you can be sure I'm trying.

     Sweating is pretty boring at times.  It involves standing around one of the monsters in the game and aiming this sweat extracting gun.  You just sit there mis-firing and mis-firing until finally you hit one that actually seams to take, and even then it doesn't always work.  Anyway, you can get 1-4 vibrant sweat bottles at a time like this every time it works.  At the current market values every 50 of these bottles is equal to one cent.  So, as I've calculated, 50,000 of these bottles should be enough to exchange for 10$ and cash out.  It's gonna' take awhile though, I'm about 1/5th of the way there with 10k bottles saved up so far.

     I'm sure that's not what I'm gonna' do though.  I've already committed a few bucks into this game to buy a few weapons to go hunting and it's kind of fun.  I'm still working to figure out the most efficient way to do this but it seams pretty tricky.  I don't quite know the ins and outs of this world quite yet you see.  But I do think that if I can actually get a grip on the values of creature products and decide on the most cost-effective way to kill them, maybe I can actually make some pennies hunting the monsters and taking them down for their loot instead of aiming that boring sweat gun.  As for now though, at least I know I'm building up some more bank in that game so maybe someday when I stumble across the right guide or person, I'll have half a shot at power-fisting some daikabu youngs for their animal oils in order to combine with the sweats and sell the mindforce extracts at a 101% profit margin.

War on Torn continued...

     The leaders in my faction have a way with just throwing money at this game it seams.  They just keep refilling points and attacking and hospitalizing everyone on their team.  Then reviving them and doing it again until they need to run back to the gas station to buy another debit card it appears.  Something in the way, because I know our team is a lot smaller but we're still pulling more respect off of them.  They must not all be as active or seam to care or something, but it makes me pretty proud.  I remember joining this team a few years ago when Tool said that stuff like this would happen.  "Finally somebody declared war on us. Was wondering how long it would take."

      It's gonna' be interesting to see how things turn out in the long run.  I don't know how long we can keep it up.  The other team we'd been warring with, I don't know what is going on there.  They are all just to inactive to care or something.  Never negotiating a peace treaty or surrendering or anything even though we just use them as punching bags.

War on Torn

     Somebody finally contested our spot by declaring war on http://www.torn.com/346939 .  I don't know what we're gonna' do.  So far, we got more attacks on them but it's like they are winning because they've got more 'respect' points.
     They have more 'respect' points than us because when they attack, they all do it at the same time.  Well, like, within 15 minutes of each other so it keeps a chain rolling.  They call it chaining.  They're just a little more organized than us at the moment.  It doesn't hurt that their team is larger than ours, has more members, that just give us more targets to hit without having to revive them each time.  We'll see how it turns out.

Axe wound Achievement On Torn

     From the other day, the ones I was talking about I got the 1000+ computer crimes and 100+ crushing weapon finishing hits.  31 more busts to 1000 busts Award.  The timing of this was perfect.  It just wants me to keep playing.
     It popped up on rewards like, the moment after I did my highest paying bounty hit ever.  400k.  So I'm like wow, never rocked a text game this hard before.  So now I can look at axes more and try and beat that record.  I'll just keep doing bounties to try to get that private island then I guess and busting to get the 1k busts Award.  Been camping Black Knights and Banshees still on Tibia.  Listening to guys on ventrilo talking about Grimms.

Hit a 400 on the Nose

     I was trying to get this screen shot done right the other day while waiting in between the respawns.  They were always either too early or too late.  This one is just about perfect.
     I haven't really had any epic banshee loots this month yet, but I already got a warrior helmet off of the Black Knight.  Just camping here and there, jumping from char to char to see what I can get.  That's a kind of fun way to do it sometimes when you want to get lazy/have time to do other things.  I just really like that screen shot.  Hits 'em for exactly 400, which was what I was aiming for.  Now to figure out how to hit a 450/500! >:D
     Well, maybe if I can find something that is weak to a certain type of damage or just go to an ot.  Off to sell loots....
