Captain America & Catherine Torsche

Those two are awesome. Did you know that? No? Well now you do.

So yesterday I went to see the Cap in action, with my parents. Enjoyable film, fun graphic design at the first part of the credits. :) Hugo Weavinggggg you continue to play so many roles gaaaahhh. Tommy Lee Jones is a certified badass. 8D And Howard Stark was great lol.

Todayyyy I got Catherine Torsche at last! I was talking tactics with my friend Nino, and as he's come from many an RTS game, he thinks quite interestingly. The setup-

Master Fighter - Peltast
+7 Atk/Human Serpent Javelin, 2 DR 92e shield.
+6 2 DR EMS.

Master Musketeer - Outrage
+6 Elite Iron Pistol 38/17/ele damage, socketed for more speed, +5 Elite Iron Pistol 30/1 AR/Darkness/Fear.
+6 3 DR EDC.

Veteran Catherine of Strength - High Guard
+6 19 DEF LN, 1 DR Pio Shield.

AM Boost, Event Triumph Fillers, Sys Pet (cat that buffs lv11 Forte/Insistiendo/Divine Blessing and heals for 1k HP) Enhanced Antidote, Magic Resistance Potion (gives lv5 AMS), Intensified Health Regen potions (5k hp regen for 15 seconds). And of course Light Flow and Concentration.

So, with the above stuff, my strategy wasss this. I quickly left the blade room, then headed left to the first stairwell. There I picked off mobs while Zink finished buffing me. Then I left Amaranth to hang near the stairs while Sullivan and Tech mowed down mobs. Piercing Bound + Dancing Revolvers is a very nice combo, especially if they're timed a few seconds apart. The first skill hits, thus giving the second skill a safe window to go off.

The mods on my pistols came in handy, I was often fear-locking or stun-locking things. Outrage SHREDS through their HP, and I didn't even have what you'd call 'Epic' pistols. Stunlock came from Piercing Bound.

Watch out for Wight and Pylig...Py...the fourlegged ambling thing of robots stuck together who's name starts with a P...watch out for their skills. They can take off a nice chunk of HP if you don't have epic armor, and have knockback.

It took awhile of just being careful and patient. I didn't need to mob too many things but my kill rate was still decent. I got Catherine to spawn at around 25 minutes on the clock. It then took me nine minutes to mow her down, finishing at 14:19. Of course, fighting her wasn't without setbacks.

She killed Tech (he died like three times total.....YOU AND YOUR SQUISHINESS. D8<), and I had to nearly SPAM my enhanced antidotes, yikes.

Nino's a genius and my own gear was good enough. Yaay.

So overall....I am very happy. Poor Torsche was so emo, he needed a hug there. Luckily I had the epic holy water and he refined it and then she remembered him~ I love the fact her poses fit her skeleton and everything. :>

Montoro called me a fucking rookie. In terms of pioneering and stuff, no, I'm a pro. Perhaps in terms of doing dastardly things, I am. I've yet to decimate a whole area or become immortal and wear nasty armor...lulz.

Surprisingly, he's kinda grown on me. I used to hate him with such a passion. But now that he wears an epic suit and keeps doing entirely douchebaggy things...I like him. LOL. He's a cool villain.

So, Cadenza is now on her way to Veteran. Grace and Viki are the best powerlevelerrrrs. <3

And Moar Updates

...I need to fucking clean my keyboard.

and do algebra.

and look around for college related shit.

but I'm not cause I'm here with a blog post. I am a lazy fucker, I fully admit it. Granado goes okay lately. I decided to card Cagalli the last level to Master, and card Hel to expert. OCCULTISM I HATE YOU. I hate myself too that I decide to do this AFTER the event.

Uhh. So yeah...thinking about experting Ed next. Or Karj. Okay I still don't know. blergh. This post is loosing steam much quicker then usual.

I need to try Cath's or Val's quest sometime...siiighghg. Emi's is on hold cause I'm lazy to master Gordon(my Gert) atm.

Revelations is incoming, I am excite. Not as excite as I am for Assassin's Creed Revelations but. And I'm debating if I want to go see Captain America. I mean, I know I will eventually see it and enjoy it, but do I theater when it comes out, a week later, or wait for it to come out/go sailing. HMM. But I'm not into the movie sailing game really so eh.

Sorry for the rambliness, just how my mind's working today. Guess I'll head back tooo Topolo now to level Occultism and Lei and Gordon.

I think that wraps it up. merp.

A Very Strange & Almost Amusing Event

So...I was chilling in Auch, blathering to a few people...occassionally broading, trying to sell some wigs.

And then boom, this guy happens. *warning, F-bomb ahead*
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14600792/Granadoscreens/capture_02184.jpg

...I was feeling shitty, but they cheered me up by how random and weird that was. I've never seen this name before in my whole Granado career, they insta-logged out after spamming....or I'm slow with a mouse? what? no. :l and I KNOW people can vouch for me that I'm not much of a big player in the server politics/drama. So...

Um, LOLWUT?

And if they think they've succeeded because I'm paying attention to them, well, uh. Okay. No, don't think so. I've given you attention by reporting your arse.

I just wish they'd come clean, get off their alt, tell me why they hate me, so we can be clear on something.

I mean...I'm actually amused to the concept of having a nemesis. Has a certain...flare to it.

So, I'm going to go off loling. Also, you entirely failed to make me butthurt, Alizee~~. Good job cheering me up though. *thumbs up*


*...wow I'm actually making a post about this stuff. Never thought I would, rofl.*

Early July Update

Welp, a decent bit has happened since my June post! Don't you love my interesting, original titles.

Granado news, first, of course!

On Saturday, a very wonderful friend let me join his vesping excursion. Let me just say; VESPING IS MADNESS! Hoooollllyyyy crap. Epic stuff. Thanks to that, Tech and Kharis rocketed up to Master! <3 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14600792/Granadoscreens/capture_02058.jpg Some nice congrats from old friends and stuff. xD

Cagalli is set to be my next Master, she's currently at Expert 9, 91%. After that...I'll seriously need to expert someone. Or I'll just have toplevels and lowbies. @_@ oh god.

Thinking Mika, to try out Rapiere in its original glory. But first, I need to either: manage to chip my Elegant Rose, or buy one or two decent rapiers. Herpderp.

Then...Helena and Reque will probably get promoted...soon™. xD

I'm also slowly working towards the Tempest of Aquarius. I've got symbols and every now and then I buy some runes. I need to try and upgrade one of those Desert Storms I have in storage...
Curse you, crystals! *shakes fist*

Hurhur, at this rate I'll actually have the bayonet done by Tech's birthday, which is in December. >____>

*due to the RP, and such, I decided on one for him. yeah...*

Went to Circus yesterday with Kimiaru. That was a lot of fun. Peltast is awesome, I'm actually pro there. Years after it came out of course. Also Val's quest depressed me massively. I tried it since I had mastered Kharis and...first try: couldn't fully buff before getting murdered
second try: got off Principal, Strategy and Organization, ran around, got slaughtered.

Q____Q WRYYYYY. I dislike IMC catering to the endgame players. Sigh. I...dunno about trying Cath's quest again. I got some tips from Eoll but...I don't have clannies/armor her level really lol.

EXCEPT FOR MY FUCKING MAGES. ARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGH.

Zander and Kharis love me, yes. But everyone else is like QQ.

Anyway we'll see about trying this weekend. Maybe borrowing Mart's delicious human dagger again and..yeahidunno. Enough silly ranting and QQ! Moving on.

To some nongranadostuff.

I hope everyone had a Happy Freedom Day/Blow Shit Up Day/Explosion Day/Independence Day. Lul.

As of late, whenever I get the slightest urge/idea to draw or write, I've went and submitted to it.
And awesomeness is the result. x3 Hooray. Finally learning to do that and listen to my muse better. Usually with poems and stuff I'm good, but other things, not quite.

And I uh. Finally used a coupon for a dollar off of two bags of Ghirardelli squares. I got a caramel and assorted bag, figuring I'd give my dad the dark chocolate ones. But guess what? There were only two. fucking. squares. I was mad. Should've just got a mint bag instead. /Pfft

Oh and that brings me to my other point: lately I've kinda got back to RO. Not playing, but looking at/for arts, cosplay, reading some fanfiction(GOOD fanfiction I might add). It's pretty fun. <3 Gah, I love that game, I'm quite happy it was my first and I made so many good memories with it.

I guess that wraps things up for now!

Crafter out~
