Friday<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Having had such success with a Scrapper\/Scrapper duo, we try out a Blaster\/Blaster duo. Get them up to about level 8 and decide, no, that’s really not all that much fun.<\/p>\n

Saturday<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Sign on with Hildy and Torchy<\/strong> and basically spend the afternoon bumping them up from 46 to 47. Woot! Also spend the afternoon fending off “Do you want to mid? Will get you to 50 real fast? Mid? Pweeeze?” requests, usually about one ever 5-10 minutes. Yeesh. <\/p>\n

Oh, also fend off the Kronos Titan, as we continued with the Crimson arc. Yikes. Gathered together a quick ad hoc team, and broadcast to get another team, and eventually took that puppy down. In the meantime, Torchy died twice, Hildy once. Ah, well.<\/p>\n

In the evening, we tried another duo experiment — All Brute\/Brute Action!<\/em> — but it didn’t quite gel. Haven’t given up, but …<\/p>\n

Sunday<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is supposed to be my 2nd Anniversary, according to the NCSoft page — doe the magical “Oooh, Veteran Rewards” stuff take place the next day? Hrm.<\/p>\n

Anyway, we focused in the afternoon and evening on Torchy and Hildy<\/strong> again. We finished up Margie’s older Nemmie arc, and finished up the Crimson arc, too (including the final Kronos Titan war walls grind). Big money, big prizes. Started doing Portal Corp. mishes, and ended up dinging to 48, which made a nice way to end up the weekend.<\/p>\n

Overall, pretty successful, I think. Tried a few things, went back to a successful team, played a fair amount but not obsessively. Had fun. Hard to beat that.<\/p>\n

\"2007-01-27_kronos1above\"Once the Kronos Titan was loose (and after Torchy had already died once), Hildy tried to guide it out toward the zone entrance gate (and the police bots), while Torchy flew hiiiiiiigh overhead. Ultimately, it wouldn’t budge far enough, requiring calling in a team.

\"2007-01-28_torchy-wings\"Afterwards, Torchy, having gotten a new security level, and tired of dying, contacted her dad (the dragon) for some dragon mojo that might help avert the condition. He gave her some (Rise of the Phoenix), but it had … irritating results.

Cammie Kandachi, the Lightning Kami, and Ana Kojiki, the Sunlight Kami (a\/k\/a Electrical Melee Brute and Energy Melee Brute). Kami just wanna have fun.

\"2007-01-28_kronos2\"Clash against the Kronos Titan (again, in-mish). Torchy is sniping. Hildy is … um … underfoot. Literally.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
