Good Morning, AllaK's - 6/6/07Follow

Good morning, happy campers.

Crafting night. I logged in my assassin and whipped up some combat arts to gain a little experience on the alchemy front. Switched over to my coercer and had a very frustrating time creating spells. Maybe I'm just too used to having a high level crafter with "mad skills", but my scribing skill really seems to be in the toilet. I have the toughest time getting pristine on these low level (20-25) spells I'm trying to make. It's frustrating. My theory is that due to the large amount of unique combines available to spell/combat art makers, I've out-leveled my scribing skill and it needs to do some serious catching up. See, my primary crafter being a weaponsmith who gets maybe 4 common and 4 rare required combines per level if he's lucky. So he tends to max out his metalworking skill long in advanced of leveling. Not so with the sage. She dings so fast due to so many first time pristine bonuses being available that it's like having a toon that was power-leveled and is high-level, but all their combat skills are in the crapper. I think I need to sit down tonight and just spam skills over and over again.

How was your evening?

well, yesterday was a blast. did a whole lot of harvesting T3 on my main for raws to sell. came away with 4 steel clusters, 2 palladium clusters, 3 dandelion fibers, 1 jasper, 1 malleable loam, and 4 curiboilli pelts. kept all the raws except the pelts. so far made about 40g off the raws, and haven't sold all the items yet. used the steel clusters to make some armor for my mystic for when he hits 22.

for the rest of the day, finished my AQ5 on my inquisitor, got into an XP group on my SK, and dinged 1, almost 2, levels and 1 more AA, and came away with the Crimson Rock Targe from Scornfeather Roost. I had a whole lot of fun yesterday.
