CaptainScarlet did attempt to pet-level overnight, but some pest came along and killed the Berserker, so perhaps half the time was wasted. Still, that still left a few hours of progress for the drake. And SirPerivale rejoined him before breakfast, for perhaps three hours work on the pale blue pony - or pale blue horse, now.
This is liable to be a comparatively short report, as really today was one big session rather than a number of separate adventures to talk about. After coffee, I headed for Prokion Temple on Auzura-3..and, really, that's where I stayed until it was time to log out in the late evening, and give Cap and Peri another hour or so of pet-levelling.
MistressBlaze teamed up with Memree, to move her on a bit - and she certainly achieved that objective. They stayed there over a slightly shorter than average lunch break, and then continued through the afternoon session. The sorcerer Grabnar did drop in for about twenty minutes around two o'clock, UK time - for him it was about seven in the morning, Rocky Mountain Time.
Throughout the day we had the 50% bonus to skill exp gain running, and that continued until six in the evening, at least as far as the UK is concerned. And promptly at six, before in fact they announced it, the third day of "Bonus Week" kicked in, keeping the extra skill exp, and adding a 50% boost to experience gain too.
My timing was pretty good, as MistressBlaze was within a percent or two of reaching level 38 by then. Once she reached that, she really was a bit high to get much from the Orcs of Prokion Temple, so her session was over. In all she had gone up 25.51%, gained 819 guild points for the Discipline guild, and added a rather useful 613 skill points.
Memree, my healer-in-training, had by then gone up 378.03%, going from level 23 to level 27....and added 612 skill points. MistressBlaze traded across her armour and accessories to Memree, and then logged out - after that long a session, it was no surprise that even the newer computer then threw up a "run out of memory" error then.
So then my level 32 witch MistressSabina logged in, and hurried to Prokion Temple, and my favouriye back room, where Memree traded the best mage armour and the three accessories across. And, well, Sabina continued where MB had left off
Ratel did get in touch, to congratulate MistressDomina on reaching level 51; he congratulated MistressBlaze on reaching level 38 when I told him, too. However, he was as usual in Auzura-4, so we couldn't make a party.
MistressSabina's weapon is a witch-type wand, which doesn't hit as hard as a wizard-type staff - but it is a level 33 one, while the staff is level 29. Her Flame Storm, based on her weapon's attack, is therefore slightly less effective than MB's is, but the faster hitting with her regular attack probably compensates for that, and that extra speed makes her a faster pet-leveller.
Sabina did reach level 33 later in the evening, which meant that the Orc Axemen, at level 27, are now blue-named for her. So I decided to unequip her drake then; it may be useful for loot-collecting, but with the potential pet points drastically reduced, it didn't seem worth having to watch out for it being attacked, and without having to worry about it losing health, faster and more ambitious mobbing of the Orcs was possible.
By the end of the evening, MistressSabina had gone up 48.59% in experience, even with the 50% experience freeze, taking her comfortably into level 33. She and Memree had each added 366 skill points, and Sabina's drake had added 1826 pet points before it was unequipped. Memree had added another 206.38% experience, moving on to level 29.
So, Memree's total skill point gain for the day was 978 skill points, which certainly means that she can start learning some more skills - she only had 333 at the start of the day. And moving from level 23 up to 29 is rather useful progress.
By the end of the evening, SirPerivale had got the pale blue horse into level 17 - Cap might just get the drake into level 29. As there is the usual routine server maintenance shut-down scheduled for 1:00am UK time, there is no point in trying to pet-level overnight, so it looks as if I'll be saving some electricity there. We just need to keep our fingers crossed that the "Player Appreciation" event continues, so that a nice set of free +10 healer armour for Memree is still to be had when she hits level 31.
