My 6th Level 80!!

Hi,

I got my latest level 80 this week. I leveled Greenbrit for most of the week and got her to 80 nearly finishing up Frostgorge Sound. I did a bit of the level 80 personal story, but stop as soon as I get the one to go meet Sayah Al Rajihd in the Cathedral. I just hate that underwater part of the story so much. It doesn't really matter, because I have no plans to ever complete any of the personal stories anyway.

Greenbrit
She did a few world bosses trying to get some better gear, and did get a couple of pieces. She's holed up on the Rich Iron Vein in Diessa Plateau now.

I then started working on leveling Huntingbrit, and get her to level 63, nearly having finished her level 60 personal story.

Mesmerbrit has been doing more World Completion and does the daily each day. She's up to 62% now, and is doing Lorna's Pass now. Karma is coming in slowly but surely, and it's very near 84K now, for another couple of pieces of Berserker gear for her.

Gold is coming in nicely. I now have 1000 Thin Leather Section, so the ones I'm getting from the Rich Iron Vein are being sold now. Gems are still a bit pricey for me. I hope it goes down to about 110 for 400, and then I'll buy 1200.

Gold: 395g 74s
Gems: 448

Back to Leveling!!

Hi,

A few things for this week. One was that they introduced Glyphs. This apply to gathering tools and give some bonuses. I got the free Leather one and applied it to my Mining Pick. That's because of all the Rich Iron Ore vein mining I do. It's really good. For each Rich Iron, get about 2-5 Thin Leather Scraps for free. I don't know how to get other glyphs for my other tools, but I'll probably look into it sometime.

And yes, I'm back to leveling. Greenbrit has been my focus. I got her through the personal story, and when she got to 60, I did that one too. She's been leveling in Sparkly Fen, and just recently completed that zone. She's level 66 now.

The other thing I did this week was get Rangerbrit's Huntsman to 500! I did this in a way I've never leveled before. I actually went from 450-500 by buying everything on the TP. I guess I spent about 40g doing that, but I think it's worth it. I now have the recipe for Zojja's Longbow, and have started crafting a lot of the stuff I need for that Ascended bow. And here's something funny. I got ready to craft a vision crystal by crafting all the stuff required for it. Then I looked in my collection and realized I have TWO of them already :) They were from my choice of 'Ascedend materials' in the monthly log-on chest stuff.

Mesmerbrit got a bit more Map Completion done, and did some World Bosses. She got to 59% complete.

Two New Rangers!!

Hi,

I decided to use some of my gems to buy 2 more character slots this week. I decided to start two more Rangers, to make it 4 in total. And here they are. A Human and a Sylvari. Huntingbrit and Greenbrit.



I boosted them both to level 50 with level 50 boosters I had in the bank. Then, I did their personal stories. I got Huntingbrit though her level 50 story and now she's level 58. Greenbrit only got up to the level 30 story right now.

Why 2 more characters, you ask? Well, two more characters at the Rich Iron Vein is about an extra 50s each day :)

I did find another Rich Iron Vein close to Oldgate Waypoint, but it doesn't seem to be predictable. It's there sometime, but not at other times. It's slightly southwest of the waypoint, in the ruins there.

I also did a bit more Map Completion on Mesmerbrit this week, getting Kessex Hills finished, and getting her to 54% complete. No other leveling except for my new characters. Mesmerbrit did get another piece of Karma gear, but it's slow going getting to another 42K, because personal stories don't give any Karma at all. Mesmerbrit's been doing some World Bosses to keep the Karma ticking over.

I haven't bought any more gems yet. It's still hovering about 110-120g for 400. I guess I'm just going to have to suck it up soon, and buy when it's close to 110.

Gold: 365g 16s

Cheers.

3rd Map Completion!!

Hi,

Yay, I got Roverbrit to 100% Map Completion earlier in the week. It actually wasn't too bad. I needed some help on some of the Hero Points in the Ruins of Orr, and some of the vistas were pretty tough, but she got it done. She did get more geared up than any other character, getting full Karma Exotic Beserker armor, and a Karma back piece too. Now I'm low on Karma again :( I now have 6 Gift of Explorations, that I have no idea what to do with though:)

After this, I decided it was time for some leveling again. I decided to play Asurabrit, my Elementalist. Well, after playing her a bit a doing a bit more of her personal story, I decided that I hated playing an Elementalist. Uggh. So, I decided to do more Map Completion. This time on Mesmerbrit. First, she tried to gear up a bit doing some World Bosses (getting a couple of upgrades) and she bought one Karma piece. She's now the one I'm doing the daily with, and she's working on all the home cities now, with just a bit of Divinity's Reach left to do.

I did a little bit of crafting this week. Asurabrit needed a level 60 staff, so Mesmerbrit crafted her one.  Also, I realized that Asurabrit had a few Tailoring crafting bits and pieces in her inventory, so I decided to craft a bit and got Tailoring to 277.

The gold continues to roll in with the Rich Iron Ore Vein farming and doing the daily. It's up above 300g now.

Gold: 324g 40s
Gems: 2048

Cheers.
