    Ayyy Magatia cards are done now, easily prepared but... WAIT... is that a maintenance for valentines event?
    Ah yes, my dream has come to fruition... we are now ready to farm AP Resets like theres no tomorrow.

    Time to get hands warm enough to 24/7 my 350 AP resets.
    But will that be enough? Well who knows, maybe we can aim for more.

    LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

    Health
    • Challenged myself to a set of exercises per every card set in rotation, so that means (13 card sets)
      • 50 pushups
      • 100 bulgarian split squats (50 per leg)
      • 2.5 minutes of planks (30s per time)
    • Did my usual yoga and tried doing splits again (130~135 degrees atm, scammazed before by doing pics in a wrong angle lmao), gotta aim for that sweet 150° or more

    WTF of an event, thought it would have been a good one for AP reset farming... but eh
    [​IMG] scammazed hard

    [​IMG]
    I know fermented food or aged alcohol is good... but uhhh chocolate? Idk man, I don't want any of that week-long diarrhea
    [​IMG]
    Maybe we will get a better Anniversary Event? [​IMG]

    [​IMG]
    This is 6 hours of chill farming, about all maps in Orbis, just card hunting in the meantime... Do you see the problem?
    I see no fucking Golden Ribbon.

    I legit had to buy one to get the first Daily Basket

    Let's rant about the event

    + Daily 1 hour GM buff Basket is good (needs to be placed in more events tbh)
    + Ring is nice in general (good +3 all stats)
    + Raffles are limited to a certain amount (should be around 20ish if really sweaty per char), makes people less lucky on getting CS/WS
    + People can't raffle like degens (LVL 70+)

    = Don't care about cosmetics this time around (not sure if new or retaken from previous years)
    = Don't care about chairs (only red ring is looking okay)

    - The grind for the daily basket is tedious and sometimes fucking 0% drop chance (look above)
    - Same goes for roses (I got 2x yellow and 1x white randomly card hunting, not even going to bother farming them)
    - Roses placement are in maps with known Timed bosses (Lorang, Panda, Straw Target Dummy, Royal Cactus, White Fang)
    Makes people trying to get those bosses card impossible because lvl 150+ are basically camp farming the maps for future roses selling™
    - AP Resets, where are they?
    - Using a single currency for both Raffle and Selective rewards (this really pushes the limit to how much people can grab cosmetics, pets, chairs and stuff that aren't so game-relative)
    - The quests description is legit like reading hieroglyphs, Whats the Romeo and Juliet requirement for "Monsters around my level"? +/- 5...10...20...50? (Found out it drops from any mob lmao)

    -- Islanders can't join most of the event ( For my fellow islanders <3 ), maybe anniv. will be different as Kimmy told on Storage thread

    I just went ahead and farmed 13 card sets and uhhh (I now have a backlog of exercising to do XD)

    Gonna aim on doing 10 card sets per day (until I reach the hard mobs, will drop to 5 per day)
    and grab the etc for daily basket.
    Might have to find a map to do this daily 1hour exp farm.

    Health
    • Did daily yoga + stretches (30 minutes)
    • Did 3 card sets worth of exercising (30 pushups, 60 split squats and 1.5min plank) e_e
    • Tried doing handstands, not bad (using wall as security net from dropping bad lol)

    As per usual, grinding cards, today was a slow day as I wanted to get some timer mobs in Magatia, and failed miserably... damn you event for putting people in Magatia... the place is swarming with people killing mobs nowadays.

    I've started the daily farm of 1-2f with my trusted choco basket and... well we're working on that 12m exp per basket usage for the next 20 days of the event.

    Today I was rummaging through some of my brothers stuff and found a 8bitdo controller... and so I thought about my bishop meta meme I made once on Discord
    [​IMG]

    And tadah! I got it working (thanks to a forum thread https://forum.maplelegends.com/inde...one-one-s-wireless-controller-on-a-mac.24014/)
    And voilà! Heres how I'll be spending the next weeks farming cards lol
    [​IMG]
    Yes, the B button for BStep [​IMG]

    Health
    • Did 1 hour of yoga and stretches
    • Started doing handstands, still using the wall but trying to move away from it
    • Still got yesterdays' 10 sets of exercises + todays' 5
      This is going to be dreadful, should've followed AinzAinz suggetion of doing them as I get the sets... but oh well lmao
      YOLO

    Slowly farming money by selling valentines etc by the buttloads (60+ etc daily)
    And farming exp at Shaolin 1-2f chill.

    Leveled up while getting Cornian stuff with AinzAinz (lmao scuffed drop rate)

    Mostly going to farm and sell valentine etc for the next couple of days, chill game with controller [​IMG]

    Slowly grabbing NX and then doing a 10~15 AP reset in one shot, to see real difference in DMG (my 22 bstep atm does 8k ~ 10k dmg)
    Increasing now Shifter so I consume less pots at Shaolin 1-2f in general [​IMG]

    Health
    • Did 10 out of the 14 exercises card sets (actually gained 1 card so its 15 now)
      I changed the challenge to this exercise per card set:
      • 5 Pushups, 5 Bulgarian split squat per leg, 30sec plank
        ^ Makes the exercise more practical
    • Did general yoga, stretching for an hour (pre and after the 10 sets of exercising)
    Life
    • Randomly caught a headache + light fever, haven't gone out for over a week now... uh idk
      Think its a mix of tiredness from bad sleeping and change of weather

    [​IMG] ~ Horntail is gone ~ [​IMG]

    This was quite a spectacular day, other than getting some funds for buying gear (later on) I've bought HTP+egg service from Soup <- Great HT leader[​IMG]

    Spectacular 1hr 20m HT run with a funny squad.
    Now I want to present to you the Fael finding game [​IMG] with supporting screenshots of the crew [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]
    Playing a song for Horntail while crew pets his stomach and high five him

    After HT I joined my friend FlorisFloris
    (Check out his Journal as well! https://forum.maplelegends.com/index.php?threads/floris-adventure-3.37985/) [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    GEAR PROGRESS
    I've been keeping this a secret, as mostly the journal image doesn't show my funds going up and down... damn it looks like the stock market daily XD (fluctuating between 10m and 70m in inventory)

    Here is all the gear I've got right now
    [​IMG]
    I'm missing a good Dragon Khanjar to upgrade.

    Huge thanks to Nightz for the Top/Bottom, kinda in debt with him, but it was worth it.
    [​IMG]
    I'm aiming on getting down to 4 Base STR (lel) and the lowest Base DEX too... atm I'm looking at something like
    10 Base STR (w/o valentine ring is 13)
    58 Base STR (w/o valentine ring is 61)​


    New Journal Image look
    [​IMG]
    As you can see I've changed it.
    I'm now going to showcase my daily :
    Card sets / 300
    AP resets used / 350 (the goal)
    NX gained in the specific day (from grinding)
    The amount of meso I have to pay back for gear (top/bot + offering for a dragon khanjar)
    Amount of workouts I'm doing, I started at 200 card sets ...
    Need to do those 200 sets [​IMG]

    Health
    • Did 11 workout sets (5x pushups, 5x bulgarian split squad per leg, 15sec plank per set) every 30 minutes
      ^^ Nice way to cut your focus from the monitor, suggest more people start doing so
    • Some yoga and stretching before and after the workout sets (maybe 30ish minutes)

    What a chill day, grinding away mob cards.
    A simple cleanup of Malasya and completed the prequest.

    Finally got around to grab a party for Nath PQ and <3
    [​IMG]
    Thanks for the Taunt guys, I will use it well from LVL 131+

    Meanwhile, FM cc3 shenanigans continue to go on
    [​IMG]
    No comment, lets move on.

    Tomorrow I'll be mostly grinding valentine etc to get some mezoz ([​IMG] poor business man atm)

    Health
    • Did 14 sets of exercises, works pretty well when spacing them between every 30~45 minutes of gameplay (was easy to move from map to map to clear card sets as well)
    • Did some practice handstand, still unsure about leaving the wall for long
    • Looking forward to doing 10-15 sets daily for the next month (10 sets per day is 27 days [​IMG]
    Job Search
    • Got a list of 25 jobs to apply, will do on Monday (Journal Day 32)
    • Talked with a fellow ex-university friend that started a Masters and put it on hold, like me, he got a job in my home province in about a month... actually might be interested, if I go back to Italy, to maybe search a job in the area too[​IMG]
    I'm still unsure of what I would do in September, but I'm certain I'm not going to complete a masters in Theoretical Computer Science anymore, I understand how very unpractical it is and how far / long the step is to get into industry.
    I might be looking at writing emails with studies advisors to understand if I can move into a more Data-related masters or maybe even go full out and try applying for a Masters in Economy / Finance / Business stuff
    (idk, I love numbers [​IMG] )

    ^ Actually Day 30 LMAO

    Chilly day, completing some sets to sell to Hiyo (never agane lmaoo)

    So study time... how do we get to 10k HP? When? How much? Why? Vote reminders?

    Here are the stats for LVL 130
    [​IMG]
    And... Boom
    [​IMG]

    But why? What about all the MP Washing? Will this mean no 10k HP goal? Well no.

    Right now we're looking at 7k HP with 44 APs "bloodwashed"
    I still got 113 washes available from the MP I got (thats 2034 HP)

    So I'm looking at this
    113 APs to wash into HP => 23 LVLs
    So at LVL 153 I will have 7018 + 22 * 23 + 2034 = 9558 HP
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    I will still have the 21mp per LVL... so thats another 23 * 21 = 483 / 12 ≈ 40 washes (720 HP)
    Another 8 LVLs worth of washing
    ^^ This is from washing from 154 and above ^^
    But the important stuff is LVL 155
    HP will be at 9588 + 22 * 2 = 9632 HP
    Let's wash those 10 APs we gain in those two LVLs.
    [​IMG] 10 * 18 = 180 HP [​IMG]

    So at LVL 155 we're looking at 9812 HP [​IMG]
    lmao lets see if Kimmy gets OCD

    So thats that, we're looking at a poggiwoogie time at LVL 155, but for now its time to grindddd.

    Shaolin 1-2f here we go next couple of days.
    At an avg of 14m eph I'm going to be LVL 135 in 20ish hours
    [​IMG]

    Health
    • Did 6 sets of workout (lotsa remaining heh)
    • Did some stretching randomly during the day (10 minutes break)
    Job Search

    • Reading on job postings, saving many for a big dump on Monday
    • From wholesome chat with univ friends I've discussed with some about their job searches (As most are from my home province) and I might actually attempt, in future summer, if I go back to Italy to try finding something there.
    ^ I find myself thinking like a Nihilistic... as if life has no meaning if not the meaning you make out of it yourself.
    I don't want to work non-stop wage cucking for 8hours a day, go home, eat, play a little and then sleep for the next day.
    I'm trying to find something enjoyable which, maybe even for 6hours a day, I can work on, and then continue with my personal hobbies... such as MapleLegends, climbing, general gym workouts and Hiking.

    Will do.
    In the meantime I will write a Day-by-Day of what happened, since the Journal change.

    Day 28
    I started the day at around 50m and then bought the HTP service.
    The cash was generally produced from previous 12m ish daily from selling valentine etc.
    So Day 26 and Day 27 (7m + 22m) from valentine etc selling plus some random scrolls in store.

    Day 29
    25m -> 43m
    I gained about 12m from selling valentine etc (150k ea) by farming them for ~4ish hours (+ during card hunting)
    Another 1m from selling blue roses (~150k ea) and 5m by selling some random items such as
    - Goblin undies (ravana) idk how, at 30k ea, sold like 100 (3m)
    - Uncertain about what scrolls, but another 2m there

    Day 30
    6m from selling valentine etc (500k per set) to Hiyo and another 1m from selling pap cracked dimension + some 100k scrolls.

    I might get a small spreadsheet going with the stuff I sell, if its really that interesting to read about.

    Awoo, can't be arsed to play a ton today.
    I'm now sticking to 1-2f solo and, when possible, do duo 7f.

    Looking with both of those at 15-30m eph, so that will be great for the next LVLs.

    I've finally sold my old Top/Bot for 42m and restocked on pots for the next couple of days.
    Now starts the grind of farming to the aforementioned 330m with either gacha, random valentine etc farming or by grinding 24/7 and selling equips.

    Man a second monitor would be nice... but [​IMG]

    Did nothing particular today, not even workouts.

    Wow I was finally able of uploading a Journal day... during the same day [​IMG]
    If y'all check back, most days I've been posting the morning after.

    So uhh... today I was hangover from last night party
    [​IMG]

    Didn't really want to get up from bed, so I've played just enough to LVL up.
    Pro tip : Use smaller ML resolution so you can fit a bigger VLC window to watch stuff.
    [​IMG]
    Watching third season of Twin Peaks... the first two episodes were interesting
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    Just before LVLing up I was thinking about getting some INT gear, even if without it, I would've gotten to 240 INT easily with MW20.
    But more INT is always welcome right?

    Oh... was I even playing today?
    Well, pixelated low res game day 2, using the smaller res + shit quality so my VLC stream doesn't crash / turn my macbook into a jet engine.

    Sold some random stuff in store + NPCed equips from 1-2f and 7f grinding
    +10m easy peasy

    Stats are looking fine

    Looking forward to grind to LVL 135+ for possible ZAK / bossing.

    Been lurking around Cash Shop for my char looks... it'll be a meme for whenever I get around with it.
