This is going to be a rather short entry compared to last time, as the title suggest I had a tiny little adventure today. It started poorly right off the bat, I got a quest to go defeat some enemies in Gnawer's Cavern, the game's first real "dungeon" so to speak. The easiest way to explain how the dungeons in this game is to compare them to Lineage 2's catacombs. So for those who are now making a whoosh noise, basically they're like public instances that an npc teleports you to. Unlike catacombs, there seem to be timed objectives, and PvP instances. After quickly being destroyed by the first enemy inside, I decided to wait a bit before trying again, a lot a bit.
Next on the agenda I picked up a variety of quests killing Potbelly Bandits, no one seems to like these guys. I guess that comes with the territory though. In the process of doing this, I discovered the pet revivals are not cheap, at 5 silver a pop, which takes about 20-40 kills for me to accumulate at the moment, it was a very laborus task when I ended up accidentally getting both my pets killed.
Eventually I picked up a more promising looking chain of quests. (The name was in green instead of white!) Soon I was lead back up to the shrine on the waterfalls in search of a Love Flower, that apparently drives people mad, and not the good kind of mad. I soon learned that apparently, it was a flower that was tained with the blood of a lover who took her own life when her man betrayed her love, hence the less than savory reputation. So off I go on my trip to find it. There was a lot of killing of green glowbugs and fat bandits, but finally I had finished the quest series. The quest mentioned something about an Ethyr but I came away empty handed, I'm guessing more will unlock in the series as I level.
Next up after having a shouting match that involved What? Nothing! What? Nothing, nothing! With an old man, I got a quest to go kill a big ol' monster outside of town that had killed me last time I tryed to take him on, in fact I think it was my first death, so it was go time for revenge! Having just hit 16 right before this quest I'd also get to test out my new ability "Liger Skitt." So I rolled up with my pet assasin, and we crushed him this time around. The bigger they are, well you get the picture.
So back to town I went to turn in the quest, I had collected enough silver to resurrect my pets and I was done for the night. My Nanscent ability "Flame On" err I mean "Flame Up" is proving to be more useful as I level, it's a signifigant damage boost to my Ethyr ability, so I'm happy to report on that. Hopefully next time I'll try to get a group together and take on the game's first dungeon without getting steam-rolled!
Until next time, this is Akakiba, signing out~
