It's been a really long time since I've had a bad party. I think it's been over a month (since my blog entry about the Dunes). Since then, I've found a couple of psuedo-static parties and have screamed RNG up to 38, as well as started and gotten NIN to 25. But the psuedo-static parties haven't been on in a while, and I've been left slumming it this week. All of this means that it is taking me a hell of a lot longer to get to 40 than it should!

As we all know by now, the dunes can be a trying place and can give you a coronary if you're not careful. Trix and I set up a party on Sunday that...well...we'll say was subpar to say the least. After allowing me to die due to poison *groan* we decided to cut our losses and go it alone. Maior and I had better luck last night, after joining a solid group. We gained exp quickly by taking down clips and flies. With 2 white mages (I being one of them), we were slicing thru them one after another. (We were joined by one player who kept reminding us how experienced he was...yet seemed more noobish than Maior's mule with a ? above his head. hehe) We were forced to find another puller after loosing one our of members, who proceeded to pull a leecher which wiped me quickly. I was raised and we proceeded...until he decided this time he'd train 3 gobs to us. Very nice of him, as Maior and I bolted for Selbina and called it a night.
