Avatars

No real progress for me last night even though I had a totally free night because my brother wanted me to help him with avatar fights ... yay. We beat Garuda and Titan and lost to Shiva because the bitch kept casting sleepga which was hitting me from over 20' away. I guess it was something to pass the time even though I would MUCH rather spend my time leveling! He owes me so much in this game as it is, now his tab just keeps going up. Since I know he reads this ... I'm not going to help you do EVERYTHING in the game, you gotta get some stuff yourself. :P

Seems like most things in the game he's been basically handed on a silver platter, like getting to 55, buying most of his major gear, buying is spells (Utsusemi: Ni), getting some of the quests done for him... He has it sooooooooooooooooo easy compared to what I did when I started. It took me like a year and a half to get my first job to 75 and it took him just over a year and he basically has all his basics for a 75 MNK too. I just had BRD so I only needed RSE and AF to get me to 75. Argh, I think I am just bitter because I can't really think of anything he can help me with so me helping him is like giving away hours of my life. lol Yeah it helps him get further along and such, but I've been screwed over so many times by people that I "helped" and they never helped me... like LSs. The whole thing of me doing Maat's Cap is that its something that I am finally doing for myself and no one else. I realize that I should still be doing stuff with others and yadda yadda yadda but I'm actually having FUN leveling! Its crazy scary because I remember hating exp, but not anymore. There's this excitement I have about getting another level and coming one step closer to Maat's Cap or one step closer to having fun on another job and gaining those new abilities or spells and being that much more flexible myself. Man, I'm getting a smile on my face just thinking about this stuff! Like getting Auto Refresh on my PLD now is awesome because it'll make me more flexible with casting cures and holding hate more. Then at 37 I get Flash which will really help me lock in hate even more, and not to mention 37 makes it a viable sub job for my RDM. Then I will be switching back to SMN and then I will be constantly getting new Blood Pacts to play around with and have fun rockin out with my avatars. Then I get back to Monk which is one of the jobs I am actually looking forward to leveling all the way to 75. Once I start on Monk at 30 I'm taking it straight to 50. It'll be about the only job I take straight from one goal to the next (30->40->50) without switching jobs in between. Oh the fun that will be had...

So this weekend will probably be a bust for me because I might be going camping ... I still haven't decided yet. Honestly I was kind of excited to go but now I am pretty indifferent about it. I will see how I feel after work today and decide then I think. Other than that I think my weekend is pretty free and hopefully I can get my PLD to 37 by the end of it. Guess I will just set that as my weekend goal: 37PLD. Well, and maybe finishing avatars with Khrone.
