    greetings, I've always looked for something that brings entertainment
    until I participated in a challenge with my guild and decided to do this challenge for me.

    Captura_de_Tela_433.png

    this is ItzLea, based on LinLin studies
    for a challenge like this, a female character is better .
    (to understand the reference Lea with an A at the end it would be as if it were the feminine form of Leo)

    Ok, but why the crazier journal? The idea is to start a Corsair from scratch, without NX and without external help from my other characters, which will aim to have 30k hp

    more or less this will be the initial idea:
    IMG_20250208_092024.jpg

    I am very grateful to HampyHampy and KrythanKrythan
    who helped me with the calculations
    This was perhaps the best way I found to have a minimally self-sustainable character, although it is far from being efficient.
    ps: if there are any changes I will comment here.

    some points of the challenge:

    > The idea is to basically start a character from 0 who arrived in the Favela.
    > I can't get gear, money, buffs from my other characters or self leech
    > I can't take advantage of the fact that I have a guild to ask for free things
    > Buying leech is allowed, but I'll try to do as little as possible, so it's not a journal just about buying leech
    > Just like every new player can do (and should), marrying your own character, owl, storage and smega mule are allowed.
    > I can accept donations and things like that as long as they are far from being game changers

    final consideration: I have some free time at random times that few people can keep up with, I'll take advantage of these times to grind here, but it won't be my main focus.

    I'm going to do it for entries that I might play more than once a day, entry 1 was yesterday, I created the character, leveled it up to lv 6 and went to look for the calculations, let's go

    hehe true, but like this, I leveled up my shad to 155 with almost double that int (420) I was able to do a lot of content, including at 155 I can do pap and rav solo in less than 10 minutes, and when had 420 int made ~33m eph solo or close to 50 in duo there in 7f, I believe that leaving the early game you can go

    Entry 2: I took advantage of the fact that I was free to play for 2-3 hours (I had already done dailies on others).

    On Maple Island I did the WG quest, got a red wg.

    I left there, got lv 15, sold fame (shoutout to the bro in print), with the $ I bought a blue wg 1 dex 4 slots for 5k, and 4 att 100% gloves for 20k each (I hadn't noticed because of the dex gloves), then I found the dex scrolls for 7k and tried 2 but I got both wrong on the red glove, rip..
    Captura_de_Tela_440.png

    I spent a little bit of money on trips to do the quests, so far I've basically leveled up with a dagger using the 1st job skill, but it's not as bad as it looks kekw .

    Tomorrow I'll watch fame dnv, I'll scroll the bathrobe with 100% dex and try to see the double shot if it's usable.

    as a non-spoon, I had no luck with drops or gacha (I only dropped 350nx)

    I also bought the little shop (I was in doubt whether to buy it or not) and I put some quest items at the fm room of the Favela, (5-6)

    entry 3, I played +/- 1:30-2h, today I had limited time and without my duo, so I only did ravana for my MM and jc for my shad and comes here

    I ran to look my store and retrieve alot of mesos
    Captura_de_Tela_444.png

    you know the part where i said about having a pog guild?
    My friend Knifeparty collaborated with my fame service
    Captura_de_Tela_445.png
    with the $ I bought the scrolls below and 10 scroll overall dex 100%
    and Baixinha (our nl pride),
    agreed to sell 7 guns att 60% for 10k
    Captura_de_Tela_446.png
    landed 5/7, fireeeee

    With these upgrades my double shot became usable, I went to do the Mano quest and got a 60% earring int, that i sold for 700k.wooooo

    Captura_de_Tela_453.png

    While I launched a smega saying that I was selling the int earring, I asked if anyone had a sock and/or a maple bandana with bad stats to sell, and I got these donations Captura_de_Tela_451.png

    Captura_de_Tela_452.png

    The guy with the bandana even apologized for the stats, he's such a good guy, what he doesn't know is that this int helped me close +5 with the sock giving me 1 extra mp every odd base int level.

    g I spent a little $ buying a bamboo hat 3 dex (15k)
    some lv 30 bullets (I thought about whether to spend it or not, but at this point every little upgrade helps), a maple gun for 200k, 3 cokepill and some mp pots.

    Today I don't have much time, and there's no point in running too much because I need LV NX, in the new patch depending on what comes it will be easier (if 8 blessing ring and flower ring come) in addition to the chance to farm

    You know that not ironically I worry more about the beginning, as I start the mp wash at lv 30, until I get 230 int I need nx and it kind of stops the up, then as the up gets slower there is nx left xD

    entry 5
    Today was a very productive day, +/- 3.5 hours played Captura_de_Tela_461.png

    I started the day selling fame, this buyer in question said that when he started playing they gave him 2 stelly and it was a great help, and he likes to give back as much as he can, I shared this with you because It was a mentality that I always had too .

    Captura_de_Tela_463.png

    I did some quests, remember I said it was productive? I did some quests, I dropped TWO yellow roses on this map, woooo, with that plus the shoes jump 30% quest, I got almost 10M.

    Captura_de_Tela_466.png

    with this mesos obtained I did the following;
    I spent about 300-350k buying some quest items, tablecloth, solid horn, rat trap, stale, and finished some quests that helped me get lv 32

    Captura_de_Tela_471.png

    shoutout to whoever sent "gratz" and to Rich for the words

    I spend some more money
    1 int 4 slots ree for 188k
    lv 43 gun for 1m
    warm muffler 2 dex 1 all 1.5m
    At this point, feeling comfortable with money, I decided to hold on to the lv 25 cape and used 5 100% int capes that I got for 100k each.

    some considerations: I bought the gun because I was afraid of reaching the level and not having it in FM, it would have some interesting int upgrades like wand, but it's already difficult to kill mob with a gun, imagine with a wand e.e

    I thought about buying a glove 8 att that was at the end, but I'll wait to see what I get from the raffle, oh, speaking of raffle, I had two to try my luck (I managed to finish killing 888 mobs, I believe that after a certain level where there is more grinding this quest will become much easier)
    one gave me a myo and another gave me a gacha, gacha too, today I dropped 3 but nothing good, including a mapletv kekw

    Captura_de_Tela_473.png

    These are the status now, I stopped at this part to wait for the nx and do more mp wash

    on Danger calculations, I need 40 bonus int at lv 50, if I continue at this pace I might get more
    at least until the event gear last)

    entry 6 around 2h played

    yesterday before going to pb at pally I went to see the store Captura_de_Tela_475.png

    and sold fame
    Captura_de_Tela_477.png

    Today I continued doing the Ariant quests, up to lv 35,
    I used smega to try to find some bullets and to try to find some failed earrings, one man gave me some bullets and other one sold me an earring lv 55 +2 dex 3 slots for 100k,
    I'm sorry you didn't save the prints, but here's my written shoutout.
    (I can't use either of them now, but it's better to have them and not be able to use them than to be able to use them and not have them xD)
    Captura_de_Tela_488.png

    Not that I thought it was difficult to level up, but now lv 25 with a maple gun it's even easier, but going brick by brick so as not to have too much AP standing still.

    I was thinking about the "fairness" of some buffs, I gave it as a rule that: asking for mw20 to increase the level is OK, but without being able to farm using it, about echo, I believe it may have some applicability also at high lv, I don't want to be using it all the time/asking some guildie because I want to simulate as much as possible someone who started playing now, and I understand that my guild has a relatively high number of high lv and time leap xD
    Finally, I handed in the 888 quest that didn't come with anything and I upgraded my ring, and called it a day, let's go
