SirDarth again worked overnight to level up that dragon hatchling, though a disconnection meant he lost an hour or so in the early morning. At breakfast time SirPerivale logged on too, and started to do some work on Ratel's horse, so that it reached level 29 before too long, and by the evening was well into level 30.
Darth logged out for a while to allow MistressDomino to do a little shopping; she did find three heaven stones at 250k each, which she bought either for resale at about double that, or to sell on cheaply to any guildie who is short of them after last night, and she also found a "Stone of Shadow" accessory, which gives 12 dexterity, 112 close range evasion, and 93 long range evasion, for 25 million which, since they are usually closer to 35, seemed like a good deal, even though she had to pay another million to the NPC scroll trader to get a "golden magnifying glass" to identify it and unlock its properties.
MistressDomino headed out towards SirPerivale in Merac to pass the "SoS" across to him, so that Kaerella could go to take it in turn; the Grand Red Dragon had been killed around there fairly recently, as the Cerebrii it spawns during its death-battle were there, but she avoided them, and was just approaching Peri when the older computer "ran out of memory". Still, it wasn't an entirely wasted journey as someone had just killed some Berserkers around there, leaving cash for her to pick up before she logged out.
Some general swapping-around of items in Randol followed, involving Kaerella, MrChuckNorris, and various loot-carrying characters, until it was too close to lunch for any actual adventuring, so SirPerivale and SirDarth both headed for the Berserkers. Darth's hatchling was level 14 by now.
BasheR had suggested, rather early in the morning, that Kae should team up with him in the Tomb of Theos against the level 100 Screaming Zombies, but as I was only set up for afk mode then, I was able to decline - Bash can be rather ambitious in the monsters he takes on, at level 31 I think Kae was still rather low for that kind of thing. Perhaps once the level 38 skill Slow Shot has been learnt, which would slow down the zombies...but that seems a while away as yet. Later in the day he brought up the subject again, but mentioned that there would be a larger team, and Kae's responsibility would mainly be healing, so that does sound a bit more viable.
In the afternoon Kaerella headed for our favourite upstairs back room in Prokion temple, and used adrenalin and berserker potions for two one-hour sessions, each of which took Kae up around 34% in experience and gave around 130 skill points. Keeping going for a while after the second hour got the session up to a little over 80%, enough to reach level 32 - and added 314 skill points, which took Kae's total up over the 16,000 mark.
Back in town, Kae spent 1099 skill points on the general (attack) skill Rapid Arrow, the passive skill Bow Mastery (getting her physical attack up from 369 to 439), and the first levels of the "Master" grades of armour and weapon making (the second and third levels come along when Kae reaches level 42 and 52). She can't learn the other level 32 passive skill, Mind Training, yet as that requires 12 stat points in Constitution, but that only increases long-range physical evasion by 25, and there aren't that many monster bow-users around.
For the evening session, Kaerella teleported to just outside Prokion Temple, but then rode down south from there to the Poison Mists, level 39 types, for a change. At around12,600 experience they only give about two-thirds of the experience of an Orc Sergeant, but they die quickly, and it's good to be out in the open, and able to use horse buffs. before too long I managed to track down the one Elite Poison Mist, which gives a useful 38,000 experience, and was soon happily killing it, then four or five of the regular kind until it respawned, and so on.
The "grand roadboss" Kamira dropped by, but as she isn't aggressive these days, I was able to keep on farming the Mists, even going almost directly underneath where she floated. There can't of been much else happening in Dratan desert to attract her, as twice when she teleported out after the 14 minutes she stays, she immediately reappeared in the same place.
I kept going, ending up with 104.11% more experience, so that Kaerella levelled up again, reaching level 33 by the end of the evening, and, although the skill exp from the Mists was rather low, getting 66 more skill points to take Kae's total of unused sp back over 15,000. Kae got a couple of heaven stones, and six Myst Eyes, which are rather valuable drops as they're needed for one of the "new pets" quests.
SirDarth was just looking at the Auzura-3 merchants, and found that a healer called "ewrrcsdfg" was selling a level 37 bow, +10, for 20 million - which seemed a reasonable price. I had to switch to MistressDomino to find just enough cash after my other recent purchases, but I bought it, and found, thankfully, that no Extreme Stone has been used, so that I'll easily be able to increase it to +13. And its bloodseals are quite nice, with in total 4 added to attack and 93 to hit rate. So, a good purchase, I thought, though BasheR said he'd seen a +15 level 37 weapon for only 30 million earlier.
After that diversion, Darth did get the hatchling out to the Berserkers, with another overnight session in mind. The plan is to get MistressDomino up in Auzura-1 to sell stuff as well, since our gold reserves are getting a bit low now...
