Floris' Adventure <3

No I think I have said it many times before so I tend to forget to mention it now, whenever I delete a character I look for new players and give out my items to a couple of them! This time around there wasn’t much though.
Also u not poor u mage.

EDIT; at this point I’m just a noobie charity

 

Day: 2
Time played: 12 hours
Total time: 22 hours

too many hours ... . . . ZzZzZ z Z z Z z

Spoiler: in game

- grinded at GS1, was getting around 300k exp/hr at lvl 42. Could hit 100% of the time with sniper pill though.
- tried to grind at Big Cloud Fox / Paper Lantern Ghost, wasn't that great and remembered that the raffle is pretty shitty as well
- back to GS1
- blew up a lvl 43 knuckle I bought for ~2m
- did boss kitty quiz quest for shoe jump 30%

At that point I was in voice chat with friends and just grinded GS1/2 for many hours. At the start I was getting like a level every 90 mins (lol :C) so I decided to add some levels of str. Basically I am aiming for 240 base int by level 72, to be safe. that means I need to add 18 more levels of INT, so from 54-72 itll probably be all int.

Got some gachapon tickets:

Spoiler: gear upgrades

Chocolate Icecream Bar someone gave me for free
Maple Storm Finger I bought for 3m at 42 att clean, landed one 30% and 4/6 60% scrolls. Pretty nice upgrade from my previous knuckle

Spoiler: final screenshot

Spoiler: next goals

- make money for a zhelm
- do GFA 70% quest
- get more event points
- look for a better knuckle

Spoiler: irl

nothing much really, uni doesn't start for another week for me

I hope you all have a lovely day today <3

note: I remade the post because the forum BB codes/spoilers were going crazy O_O

 

Day: 3 & 4
Time played: 14 hours
Total time: 36 hours

Kinda hit a slump. When I hit lvl 50ish I did the zak prequests and I have been trying to buy AFK zak service ever since. Basically I went on 5 runs so far and still don't have a helm :C. 3 runs failed because the party didn't kill in time, on 1 run I was resurrected too late and ended up back in El Nath and the other run I dced. Kinda sad. Been pulling late nights as I have only really been able to find zak runs after server reset (2 am my time). Lets hope I can finally get my hands on a zhelm later tonight ~
Otherwise its been going pretty okay .

Spoiler: in game

- grinded at GS2
- gathered ETC's for the ellin ring questline
- completed ellin ring quests
- did the first three eliminate the golems quests

Added some STR for some levels, as I was just unbearably weak. Right now the game plan is to only add int until I reach 240 base int at level 70 .

got some gachapon tickets:

Spoiler: gear upgrades

Ellin Savior's Ring from the questline. Was too cheap to buy the ETCs so I collected them myself, which took some time but overall was pretty quick.

Spoiler: final screenshot

Spoiler: next goals

- get a zhelm T_____T
- get to lvl 70
- buy a decent maple golden claw (lvl 64 knuckle)

Spoiler: irl

beep boop

Enjoy your day <3

 

This is actually something I decided I would do before (for the reasons you mention) but haven’t yet done. Thanks for the reminder! Appreciate it <3

 

Day: 5
Time played: 12 hours
Total time: 48 hours

Too many hours again, luckily uni is starting soon and I will have something else to do with my life OwO. Some were last night, the rest all today though. Posting a bit late (I tend to cut days in half, write the update around 5~7ish and include what I do later that night in the next day's update) because tomorrow I'll be going to the beach <3.

Spoiler: in game

- grinded at gs2, this became pretty darn slow at some point but what can you do
- finally got my zhelm, yay! First run completed and I didn't dc so that was all great
- decided to sell 'event chair service' for 30m. Rip 5 AP resets but I really wanted to get that maple golden claw and head over to CDs. Also, with the meh gach luck I've been having I just needed some gear upgrades.
- bought a maple golden claw
- grinded at CDs
- grinded some more at CDs with a priest for 68~70


Job advanced and became a Marauder!

(I should really get my character a less horrible look soon, I hate the current one).

Got some gachapon tickets:

Spoiler: in game

(lets all pray for jootf's button)

So we finally past the level I previously got to when attempting to make this 24.5k HP bucc. Thats very exciting!
Also, as per the tippy from iPippy I got some levels of HP washing in already. I believe it was 4~5 levels before I ran out of NX. It also turns out I maybe didn't do my calculation correctly? Idk how but I was expecting to be at 240 base int after job advancing. We'll get there at 72, not a big deal fortunately.
Pretty excited to be a Marauder, I've read before that people consider it to be a pretty shitty/underwhelming 3rd job, but stance and a new couple of energy attacks seems good enough.
Meso wise still scrambling, can barely make my mesos spent on pots back at CDs. Gonna need some more damage to start making some more mesos there which requires mesos. Interesting loop we got there.

Overall just out here living my best intbucc life. Lets pray I get some more event points soon since I'm gonna have to start MP washing ASAP. I can already feel the lack of NX problems coming but I'm pretty determined this time around to either push through or start like card farming while waiting for more NX. We'll see ~

Spoiler: gear upgrades

So with the 30mil from the event chair service, I bought some stuff
Maple Golden Claw bought for like 8m, was 59 att clean then landed 4/7 60%s on it. Was way too scared to boom to try and 30/70 it.
Green Mittens bought for 11m
Zakum Helmet finally came through, the service cost me 12m which I had saved up and stored in the bank for that purpose
Silver Deputy Star bought for 19m, didn't feel like waiting around to get one from the quest

Spoiler: final screenshot

Spoiler: next goals

- get to level 80
- make some mesos somehow

Spoiler: irl

nothing uwu

Have a great day!

EDIT: the stupid spoilers bugged out again, at this point I just don't feel like remaking the post every time this happens because that seems to be the only way to fix it...

 

Day: 6
Time played: 7 hours
Total time: 55 hours

Hi ~
v hungover today from a birthday party but managed to play quite a bit yesterday

Spoiler: in game

- grinded at CDs
- grinded more at CDs with a priest
- fished to trade in event points

I have also started MP washing since level 72, when I reached 240 base int. Last two levels I HP washed a bit to be even more comfortable HP wise at CDs / use less pots. Basically it doesnt matter much whether I first HP wash then MP wash or the other way around, as far as I'm aware. I intend to keep the base int until at least like lvl 140~150 if I can, so I just need to finish my MP washes before then. Thus I figured HP washing more now will save me on pot mesos .
Ran out of NX (duh), I currently have

Got some gachapon tickets:



Finally something that made me some mesos (raccoon mask)

Spoiler: gear upgrades

Maple Golden Claw I found pretty cheap for 6m with 62 attack clean then landed 6/7 60% scrolls on it, nice upgrade from last one I had. Sold that one for 7.5m.
Pink Gaia Cape I bought with 2 att clean for 5m, landed 2 70% scrolls on it. There are currently literally no 60% scrolls in the FM though. My 8 str raggedy cape still provides more damage, but I wanna switch over to a dex cape once I start wearing higher leveled knuckles.

Spoiler: final screenshot

Spoiler: next goals

- maybe do some card farming to gain more event points, im at like 14/50 AP resets and wanna max out on those soon. Preferrably I'd get 50 APR and 25 raffles, but I'm not sure I will have the time to grind that much. We'll see. Lets for now just pray for those APR.
- get to lvl 90

Spoiler: irl

hungover uwu

Enjoy your day!

 

Day: 7
Time played: 5 hours
Total time: 60 hours

60 hours in a week O_O... oops...
Uni starting again tomorrow (yay finally <3) so gonna be playing less, especially since I have an extra course this period so lots of study study study.

Spoiler: in game

- grinded at CDs
- grinded more at CDs with a priest
- farmed a couple of cards (now at 17 sets)

I decided to go farm some cards cause it is probably also a bit faster at getting bait. I believe I am at 20/50 APRs, I definitely think I'll be bale to finish all 50 but I was also hoping to get points for the raffles. Not sure about that though.

Got some gachapon tickets:



Also;

someone had fun with the wink there after 69% .... lol.

Spoiler: gear upgrades

Landed 2 more 60% cape dex on the Pink Gaia Cape.
Am trying to get to 80/90 dex so I can start wearing some higher leveled knuckles. Though I probably have nowhere near enough str to wear them anyway ~

Spoiler: final screenshot

Spoiler: next goals

- get to 140 speed, in the screenshot above I'm wearing my weaker bathrobe over the red barbay, might get 3 pets soon and scroll their items for speed because I dont like being slow :C
- get to 90
- get to tier 1 ring
- farm bait

Spoiler: irl

Went for a walk/lunch with family, was very nice. Also, doggie was staying at my parents' for a couple days and he's back now <3

Enjoy your day!

 

Day: 8 & 9
Time played: 8 hours
Total time: 68 hours

So we're at the point where I have 47 AP assigned to HP/MP. LOL. Thats almost 10 levels of AP I'm missing. Its all good tho. Just gotta slow down on the leveling a bit. Currently at 29/50 AP resets from event and like 0 NX.
So i've been focussing a bit on farming monster book cards and actually got tier 1 ring.

Spoiler: in game

- grinded at CDs
- grinded at CDs with bishop friend
- monster card farming around Victoria Island (31 sets)

I currently get like 3.5 exp/hr solo grinding at CDs. Mostly because of my poor damage range. It's like over 1.5 hours per level now so that feels slow. The priest friend I leveled my gunslinger with is now a bishop and has been helping me a bit. Basically she stands on mid platform and uses genesis to kill top 2 platforms while I kill the bottom platform. Then I get about 6m eph or a level an hour .

Got some gachapon tickets:

Spoiler: gear upgrades

Monster Book Ring from farming 30 cards.
I also bought a Supreme Fishing King Flag thats like 9 str, 7 dex, 7 int, 8 luk for 6m but Ainz is currently borrowing that for a bit.

Spoiler: next goals

- get to lvl 90

Hi ~
In a bit of a rut. Definitely not remaking, will probably not have time for that ever again with uni starting and stuff. So thats good. Also, I've changed outfits on this character like 50 times and still can't find something I like. I miss my old purple outfit from the anniversary event with the round glasses, but alas those NX items are not on this account. Overall I didn't care too much for the NX this event so that doesn't help. Oh well. I generally care a bit too much about the aesthetics of my character on 2003 mushroom game and really love monochromatic / perfectly color matching looks / items. All the male cash shop NX is just meh though to me.

Spoiler: in game

- grinded at CDs
- did an hour of Burnt Land 5 farming, got 93 bait (including the bait gained from opening boxes)
- bought 3 pets and new outfit with donor cash

Got some gachapon tickets:

Supreme Fishing King Flag bought for 6m as I mentioned earlier

Spoiler: final screenshot

Spoiler: next goals

- get to 100
- hopefully get 50 APR from the event before it ends, currently at like 34/50

Spoiler: irl

studying

Probably taking a couple days off to focus on uni. Mostly just feel stressed out about that at the moment and haven't really felt motivated to play.
Enjoy your day today!

 

Day: 11 & 12
Time played: 7 hours
Total time: 79 hours

Grinding is getting slow, especially with my current 73 AP stuck in HP/MP (loool). I think I'm kinda overdoing it with the washing, Ive basically been either HP or MP washing every level since I hit 240 base int at lvl 72. Ohwell, better be safe than sorry. Don't really mind the leveling pace slowing down a bit though, but it would be nice if I can finally equip a better knuckle than my maple golden claw. Main reason I can't yet is because I dont have the str required. Still got some more AP resets I can farm from the event though .

Spoiler: in game

- grinded at CDs
- grinded at CDs with a priest HSing for very poor intbucc leech lol
- grinded at galloperas with a friend
- Ainz helped me do the scarlion prequests, thank you again <3
- farmed some monster book card sets (39 total)

Got some gachapon tickets:


Sold elemental wand 6 for 20m (it had 151 TMA)

Spoiler: gear upgrades

Bought scarlion service and got this Scarlion Hat (STR) as well as a dex one. The dex one had better stats so I decided to scroll this one. Landed two helmet for accuracy 30%s on it, one helmet for dex 70% and one helmet for dex 60%. It definitely has potential, despite its base stats being 15/17/15/16 and I'll just continue to 60% it once I get enough money to do so. Pretty nice <3
Also landed a 30% on a perfect clean White Fangz but as I said, I lack the str to wear it T__T.

Spoiler: final screenshot

Spoiler: next goals

- get to lvl 100
- wear a better knuckle
- finish scrolling my helm
- get 50/50 AP resets from event
- get some event raffles

Spoiler: irl

spent lots of time with my family this weekend, was lovely

Enjoy your sunday!

 

Day: 13
Time played: 8 hours
Total time: 87 hours

Helped my friend out leveling her newbie assassin at Master Chronos, got 3 helmet for dex 60s actually. Pretty sweet. Also managed to scramble together the str/dex required to wear a new knuckle. Leveling is slowing down but if I maintain some kind of a steady pace we'll get there sooner or later . Also, at 45/50 AP resets so I'm hopeful I might be able to snag a raffle or two after all ~

Spoiler: in game

- grinded at Master Chronos, got some gach tickets, bait, boxes, 3 helmet dex 60s
- grinded at Wraiths to leech/help my friend more
- grinded at ulu2 with a friend
- grinded at himes with a priest
- grinded at CDs with a priest
- grinded solo for a bit at mixed mannequins
- been working on getting my pets to lvl 15 and completed kenta's advice. Those dragons are like a vacuum machine now.

I went and tested some EPM solo spots, CDs is about 5~5.4m eph and mixed mannequins about 4.7~4.9m eph or so. Funny as I thought that would be better. Turns out CDs are still the place to go solo. Gallos was about 4.6m and the same for himes and ulu2 solo I believe, might not be doing enough damage yet after all.

Got a bunch of gachapon tickets:


Sold Yellow Marker for 22m, Ele wand 7 was NPC grade.

Spoiler: gear upgrades

I didn't realise until the end of the day that I actually got seriously lucky scrolling yesterday. How's that for a change .
Scarlion Hat (STR) is the one from yesterdays update, finished off with 60s. In the end it was scrolled with: 2 30% helmet acc, 1 70% helmet dex, 7/8 60% helmet dex. Very very nice.
White Fangz I bought at max att (75) clean, landed a 30% and 5/6 60%s.

But, I was seriously lacking str and dex to come close to equipping it. So I decided to upgrade some gears cheaply. It was a hustle but I ended up making it:
White Pioneer scrolled with 60% overall str scrolls, very lucky again.
Blue Pageant scrolled with one shoe jump 70%.
At that point I was missing 1 str to equip the white fangz so I bought a Spectrum Goggles to fill up my thus far empty eye slot and get that last point of str.

In the end, my damage range shot up from like ~1.2k to ~1.6k on coke pill.

Spoiler: final screenshot

Spoiler: next goals

- get to 120
- upgrade some more gear
- wash out my current 80 AP in HP/MP

Lazy sunday, played too much maple. Gotta start pacing myself.

Well, hasnt been the 2 weeks to 120 I was hoping for, but what can you do with so much base int / AP to wash out. Moving along steadily, so thats good.

Spoiler: in game

- grinded a bit at ulu2 with a friend
- grinded at himes with a priest
- some card hunting, at 48 sets
- finished 50/50 AP resets from event, yay! Now lets hope to snag some raffles.

Turns out exp at himes really aint bad, I get between 8~9m epm, depending on who the priest partner is! Pretty doable still, for now.

Got some gachapon tickets:


Still need to turn in the Newspaper Hat for an overall dex 30%.

Spoiler: gear upgrades

none, hoping to get enough str and dex together sometime soon to hopefully be moving up in gear towards a King Cent.

- get to lvl 120

- resist the urge to buy leech

Spoiler: irl

Uni, classes, need to do more. Been slacking trying to get to 120 but I think I'll have to accept slowing down the hours I play per day significantly soon. Kinda starting to fall behind already, but its just been a week of classes. Gotta catch up before my exams in 6 weeks though.

I hope you have a great day today! Remember, if its a bad day, you need some contrast to have good days. If they're all good, they're all meh.

 

Day: 15
Time played: 8 hours
Total time: 100 hours

So as one can read in the initial post, this is intended to be a no-leeching challenge. Main reason being that it seems fun to me to have 'worked' for my progress myself. Anyhow I already digress, my lvl 132 bishop friend keeps wanting to help me level (very kindly) and I was slightly reluctant to duo with her because, despite me actively attacking, a large chunk of the exp comes from leech. However, yesterday when smega-ing for priests to do himes/ulu/CDs with, I mostly got responses from low leveled bishops wanting to duo. Point being: it seems very very easy to find low leveled bishops willing to duo a map with you, as they want to be leveling and gain more exp that way too. Now, a part of the reason for the no leeching is that I want this 'challenge' to be reproducable, meaning that it shows that you can level a very high base int character while heavily washing, without a mage and with no starting funding. So, since I have found it really very easy to find bishops willing to duo with me, I've decided to go ahead and not 'regard' that as getting leeched, as I am actively attacking. Anyhow, I might buy some leech soonish, since I still earned those mesos myself (and they are hard earned). Still on the fence about that.
tldr: As I'm getting higher in level, the lines between what is and isn't considered leech is pretty much getting blurred. Duo grinding with a bishop is the fastest exp available, but partially I'm just getting leeched. So would grinding with a priest be okay but not with a bishop? Its hard to tell.

Spoiler: in game

- duo himes with bishop
- duo ulu with bishop
- duo ulu with DrK friend using roar
- duo himes with another bishop
- duo CDs with a priest
- duo himes with a priest
- drunk me tried buying petri leech, failed LOL.

There was just lots of duoing going on, LOL. It's just way faster exp than solo grinding. Usually, easily at least double of what I get solo.

So I thought it would be fun when I was like lvl 102 to attempt to get together the badges for a CWK exchange. Mostly because I was curious how the exp would be and how long it would take me on a low leveled character. Got about 25 firebrand badges (surprisingly quickly) but then started focussing more on just leveling with priest/bishop friends. Kinda sad I didn't end up completing it, wouldve probably gotten me at least 1 level and some money, though it probably would take forever. Anyhow, maybe another time I'll do a run.

Got some gachapon tickets:




Got some raffles (one at the top of gach screenshot as well)

Spoiler: irl

Really need to start doing some actual studying / uni work. Main reason I'm considering buying leech to get to 120, as I'm pretty hard set on reaching that goal ASAP but just don't have the time. Being an Aries is annoying sometimes. Even though I don't believe in that kind of superstition.

Hope you all have a great day today!

EDIT: 113 AP currently in HP/MP LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL, rip.
