Do not worry if I have questions I will ask... I have a pretty good idea on what I am going to do on this character when created... Just need to locate a few decent daggers/knives/Poinards/Dirks for this char so he is ready to go.. I have not been in the habit of looking at those on corpses when looting, so I will be paying attention to that as I can...when I get time to play. Thanks for your post I will see you in game soon...

find me in game, I'm on most weekends, this weekend however i have a LOT of homework so probably not so much, I have a 187 dagger toon, and I've been saving all my downgrades. so I can equip you.
as for your rabbits foot. i would save that for 400 wield fire rend (undead slayer if they stack) it seems to be what I use most endgame.
Since there are 420 wield weapons out now, if you could get your hands on a top damage 420 wield with BD8 that would be the ticket (lvl 180 req) |

11/7/08
Wow a late day (Friday) update. I have been really busy with personal and business things, so I have not had a chance to post in the last couple of days. I have been playing some this week but kind of sporadic…
Just a quick update as to where I am at moment. Mu Lech and Hail No have not moved they are still hanging out at Col helping S n S with Trophies. S n S is now level 129, melee is 390 and he will probably make 130 tonight…. This opens up Viss as an option and I am guessing once I get all my items I will work on flagging… I have been hunting and occasionally dying in the Blighted Moarsmen Tunnels at AB… as reminder they pay 800k per kill which ain’t bad…Problem is that they hit really hard…. I am handling the top level pretty good and have gone down to the 2nd level a few times but not too far… I am starting to take a little less damage so I am guessing the melee is getting close to where I can handle more than 1 at a time… I can take 2 of them if I can take the first one down quick otherwise the game turns into Monty Python and the Holy Grail….”Runaway….Runaway…”
Ok, so now an update on the “No Death” challenge… Well I started my character his name is “Old Skewl” and he is level 26 and is in a BSD (I think the one by AB) working on his 20 million in XP. Last night I was cooking dinner and left him unattended while he was killing a Slave… ummm… not a bright thing to do when this is your no death guy…. Well I came back (bowl of soup in hand) to him standing in the middle of the room (not the corner I left him in) and surrounded at 9 health… Luckily I got down a health Elixir before it was too late….I am guessing the Slave he was attacking bolted and dragged him out of the corner… I will be more careful next time… It is slow going with him I have a sucky or is it suckie fire weapon and his dagger skill seems a little low… Hail No seemed to do a little better but I had a better UA weapon when he was in the BSD… plus it might be that dagger duth indeed suckith… I hope nobody is offended by the word “suck” I do not usually use it but it is what is coming to mind at the moment… as in this guy kind of sucks… but he has not died yet, so I will keep playing and see if it gets better…I followed the template I outlined in an earlier post. I am hoping that as he gets to be a higher level he gets better…
Ok… This weekend is Drill (Uncle Sam is calling) I have a 2 day instructor training class… That sounds like work... I am planning on playing in the evenings this weekend but… I might have homework, which could impact my play time… Wish me luck… So my goals are Old Skewl to 45 and S n S to 132-133 and maybe 395-7 Melee…Longer term goals for S n S are to spec Magic D (I have the points now) and dump some points into that and start working on my 420 sword… Health End Stam as well…
Bis Spater…

I know everyone has been wondering why I have not been posting…well maybe 1 or 2 people have been wondering… It boils down to work… It has been very busy and I have not been getting any lunch or break times to even think about posting an update…but today is your lucky day…
This will actually be pretty brief as I am still pretty busy today as well…
I have been playing both S n S and Old Skewl for the most part… Let’s start with Old Skewl… He is now level 46 and his Dagger is at like 318 base working to get to 325 base so I can wield a rended weapon generously given to me along with several other dagger by Daemonar (Thanks much!!!) I have to say Dagger is not that much fun to play… The damage is slow. I do not have a rended weapon yet… (I am hopeful it will improve with one). I have been hunting Blighted Moarsmen since this is my no “death guy”…otherwise I would give Fuins a run but I would surely die often there… So for now it is Moarsmen… and those related XP quests… I need to get him flagged for Col. I did see we were doing a Col run last night but it was getting a little late and I was really tired and that is a 2hr commitment, so I decided to wait… I can level him with Col items for awhile until he is a little stronger and then “carefully” take him to the Fuins…
As for S n S, seems like I have slowed down quite a bit… part of the reason is a lack of available Ivory (there has been none in MP for most of the week) and it takes forever for me to fill a bag or two. (If someone has a suggestion let me know)… S n S is level 133 and his base melee is 395 inching closer to 400 base… (That is getting really expensive) I know 420 sword is going to be painfully slow and painfully expensive. I am at 403 base sword now…I am tempted to go ahead and dump some points into Magic D since I can spec it… I might run the spec quest tonight just to get that out of the way… and unspec item… Then I could train life. But I still will not dump points into magics until I have my melee at 400 base… Then everything will go into Magic D and related magic skills Item and Life if I train…I did complete the Shadow Slayer quest this weekend which was fun, but long… My girlfriend was really patient… told her it would be 90 minutes took 3 1/2 hours… I am now flagged for Caul but I have decided I do not like Caul at all… So I am not sure I will be going there other than when I have to…
Plans for this week are S n S to 135 or 136 and Old Skewl to 50 or so… I will not guesstimate on the were skills will be by the end of the week… Oh and I trained Mana C and Item on Old Skewl just because I will eventually need them… He will ultimately become a 3 school Dagger…I toyed with the idea of switching him to bow or xbow because he has good innate starting levels for that… could unspec Dagger and train and then spec Xbow or Bow eventually… I have played both types of characters along time ago… I hate the burden issues and fletching and all the work I really like to cast and go so I will stick it out with him as a Dagger guy for now… Been itching to play my mage a little but with the limited playing time that idea has taken a back burner…
Ok that is it… sorry nothing too exciting to share… Cya in game...

Ok… So I got Old Skewl flagged for Col last night…felt really bad for Temji who organized the run, so he could get one his lowbies flagged but he had (I think some computer issues) and the lowbie lagged out and could not rejoin the fellow at the end and did not get flagged… Chu was there and that was nice as I have not had much playing time with her lately…They almost cleared the 8th room but not quite… Now for the bad news… Old Skewl = 1 Death now… I could not stand by and let people fight my battles… I jumped into the 8th Arena and started to attack a Crystal Lord… Hit him for 7 damage… He hit me for…all the damage I had available 138 health or so… no biggie… I guess I can start again with a new no death char but maybe sometime far off in the future…(I do not like tip toeing around)…So Old Skewl officially made 48 before giving up the ghost which ain’t good but ain’t bad…. Considering he actually was fighting in the BSD, Moarsmen and finally during Col flagging I guess I can live with that… So I will camp him in the Col and throw him bones to level up and then play him as I see fit... Think he is level 50 now and almost to 325 Dagger…
Ran S n S on the spec and untrain skill quests… I spec’d Magic D and unspec’d Item and Staff… I trained life and will train creature when I reached the requisite 8 credits… I have 4 skill credits now… need to run the 2 skill credit quests… to speed up getting creature… So my name should really be S n s now as Staff is not spec’d, might spec it later if I have the credits, but not sure how many I will have available (not sure what the cap is) and would like to spec a magic at some point but might not be able because of the spec cap… S n S is now 135 so made up some ground last night. I was able to do this because there was some ivory in the marketplace (I had a few mini trophies on other chars). I am only feeding him Clubs and Sickles and leaving the Stone gaunts for the other characters… So I now have 4 chars flagged for Col… So that is the potential for 152 million each time I run minis for S n S… That does not level me anymore but makes a dent… Perhaps I should go ahead and create a few more chars to get flagged… seems like the easiest XP in the game…I will give that some thought…it is pretty easy to level chars up and does not take too much time (at first)…
As for the rest of my gaggle… Hail No and Mu Lech both leveled several times as well last night… I think all my lowbies (I play are at level 50) So generally it was a productive night…
I will not be on tonight but will be on tomorrow and will try and make the Bobo quest…Thanks to all on the flagging last night...That is a pretty big commitment in time...
Adios…

A quick update. I did not think I would get time to post an update today, but things are slowing down as the day goes on… I am on vacation next week (Woot!) but I have a pretty busy schedule with Family and Friends…
S n S is now 137 and 399 base Melee… I am very close (40mil) from making my melee goal… As I mentioned before I have Spec MagicD and trained life… I think I have learned most of the level 7’s I need but realized that I actually need some of the lower level spells as well to be effective… I will work on learning what is needed and setting up the my spell bars. So my immediate goal after 400 base melee is to dump a few levels of points into my magics to get those up so I can comfortably cast 7’s… I can cast them now but it is a fizzle fest… one debuff and it will be 100% fizzles… That amount of points should get me to a respectable 300+ in both Life and Item… I have been dying a lot as many have been witness to on the last couple of quests, Dark Bobo and Son of Pooky… Pooky was frustrating as I ran that one when I was level 90 and did not die, now at level 137 I get whacked… oh well no biggie… burning V is no problem just hate to let the team down… I feel like I should be a little stronger… I have noticed that my health is way below others at my same level, so I will work on that after I get my magics up…
Old Skewl is level 51 I think I am starting to get all my guys in the Col mixed up… I successfully got Mu Lech to 40% vitae by accident… I life stoned with thoughts of buying comps and getting buffed in Holt … I LS’d and walked away to do the dishes (I left Mu standing at the LS)… So, I come back and “Rut Ro George” I am standing there with a stack of bodies on the grand… I was like what the <insert expletive> and then before I could get to the keyboard I died again… I was thinking when I LS’d I was going to the Redspire LS but I was actually LS’d at the one over by the Plateau portal down the road from Redspire where stuff actually spawns… Windreaves were just sitting there taking pot shots at me… and killing me… I think I recovered 10-12 bodies stacked one on top of the other… So lesson learned… not a big deal but a little annoying…I saw the same thing at Tree Top with another Char so I did not feel too bad… I bet he was surprised when he logged back on… (the Moarsmen Maruader were attacking, so I assume thats what got him)…
Anyway… my tentative schedule has me back on Sunday night… not sure how much and when my playing time will be… So I guess I will see everyone in game when I cya…
Arrivedrci

…Way…. I am posting an update… or something resembling an update.
I have been off and on in the game… S n S is level 145 and my other main toons are in their 50’s.A couple days ago Witchie Poo ran the Bur Flagging quest and I joined in, not hard but long…I need to get S n S flagged for Viss but I guess I will do that when I get enough time… I have most of the items, just missing that one rare gem thing I need… (I have the pyreal bar, and yellow jewel).
I did start two news characters just for fun… not sure if I will play them a ton but kind of just experimenting with templates… Kasper Gutman is an archer Level 22 or so… He is pretty fun to play… I do not like the alchemy part of being an archer, but I guess I can buy him arrows as needed… He has fletching trained… I have been dumping all his xp into bow and coord… Melee is also spec’d.
The other new member to my toon family is Signor Ferrari he is UA spec’d (not to original) 3school trained… I did not spec Melee yet… He is in his 30’s and has enough skill credits to spec Melee I just have not run the quest yet…. He will just need to spec magic d and he will be pretty much done… I guess I can pick up something else... if I play him that long…with the remaining credits….
My other toons are skimming some XP off of trophies from Mini’s…. All are progressing slowly but I really need to play around with them and get them setup to fight… particularly my mage who might eventually be a decent char to help support quests… Also Hail No has bow spec’d although I have put 0 points into that skill because he is UA…. (I suspect Signor Ferrari and Hail No will look the same in the end) except for the Bow…
S n S is plugging along… I have been working to get my health to 300 and bump up my base sword which (I think) is base 406… my base melee is like 401. Sword buffs out over 500 depending on whether I have an Incantation on me…My magic d in roughly 325 buffed and my life and item skills are 335+ buffed… I will be adding creature post level 150 but will still need to run the skill credit quests…soon… My immediate goals are to make level 146 and maybe 147 this week… I will be out of pocket for next week… and that is pretty much it… I need to get flagged for a society too… leaning toward Celestial Hand since that appears to be the majority of the Monarchy…. So, I should see some of you in game later this week…
I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year…
Laters………

OK.. 2 days in a row… Just a quick update on S n S. He is now 146 (Sweet!) I bumped his health up to 285 buffed, so I have a ways to go before 300 buffed (I know… that is not that high….) I will probably eventually start working on some augmentations and I guess I could re-allocate from quickness over to Endurance a little as well with out a dramatic impact… Last night I basically just ran mini’s and then hunted Grimy’s in the dungeon near AB… They did not kill me this time… I did take a dive into the Egg Orchard the other day, but I am not familiar at all with that Dungeon and the Slashers at the top hit pretty hard although I can take 3 of them on me… Just given my experience with Olthio Mobs in other dungeons I know if I got 5 or 6 or even 50 on me I would not last too long… That is a little disappointing because my melee at least I think is pretty high… I will eventually end up hunting there maybe starting next week… I need to get down to the Rippers…and see how tough they are… I am flagged for the Ripper quest.
I sawChu on last night and she is really working to help me out… She found a pretty decent sword and I asked if I could have… numerous spells on it (400 base sword) it is work 7 I think… Spells were like Incantation Coord, and Heartseaker and the list went on… I was like… /tell Chu-Chu, I think I want that… I asked her to see if she could find an uber tinkerer to rend and tink… I would be very afraid to mess with it…seeing as I do not completely understand tinkering rending stuff… I asked her to rend it for Slash and I do still have my rabbits foot.. Stats as I recall were 29-54 +14 +18 (SWEET)…God I hope it does not blow up… I did not see the reqs on it as far level and arcane… might have to mule if I cannot use quite yet… I am guessing 150 req and hopefully not any other crazy reqs…(fingers crossed) If I understand the rabbit foot thing it will improve the damage variance by 20% so I think that would make the swords current stats 34-54 not sure how tinking would impact…
Slash Rend (Imperial Topaz)
1 Granite 20% variance
2 Iron Damage +1
3 Iron Damage +1
4 Iron Damage +1
5 Iron Damage +1
6 Brass Melee % +1
7 Brass Melee % +1
8 Velvet Damage % +1
9 Velvet Damage % +1
10 Velvet Damage % +1
Hopefully it could end up 42-58 +17 +20 base Slash Rended or something like that. I am not sure what Slayer is but I know that I should put that on before the Rabbits foot…Guess I can discuss with Chu…
I should be on briefly on Wednesday and then on during the day some on Thursday and Friday… then off for a week or so and then off and on through the Holidays…

Just a brief update… was off for 3 weeks over Christmas. Got married and was very busy with Family… My play time has been adjusted accordingly… Also busy with the Navy Reserve…plus work has been crazy… so needless to say I have not had a lot of time to post any updates… but today is your lucky day.
So here is the scoop on my characters…
S n S – Still plugging along.. He is Level 153 Base sword is 411 now… working towards 420 just in case I find an uber sword he can use… He is now a 3 school which is pretty cool because I can self buff now when needed.. (I am missing a few level 7 spells…not really sure how that can be but I know I am missing Focus (Self) 7. I am sure I will eventually find it. I kind of stopped picking scrolls as it seemed I knew all of them and that is not the case. I am working on the Level 7 others too just to help out if needed but I am missing some of those as well… I also need to go buy some level 5 or 6 scroll because I am missing some that would be useful to have…All my magics buff to around 330+ and same with MagicD… Once I get to 420 sword I will start back on Endurance, Health, Stamina, Focus and Self…and also melee as XP allow…
Mu Lech – Is at level 65 and a Mini mule, but working to build up his skills…He is missing many spells but his base War is at 308 or close to that. He should be serviceable soon but it seems like I keep saying that…and not really doing anything with him (see play time reference above) I am a little confused on the Mini Trophies with him because he only gets 4mil from a Killa club… I guess there is a level req for that to be higher... Every couple of levels I try and give one to see if it jumps up… so far it is not happening… I have many Stone trophies muled but not enough ivory to give all the gaunts from other characters to him I have maybe 20 Stone tokens… when I get the ivory he will move up quick (200mil XP)at his level should push him up numerous levels… So he is a WIP (work in progress)
Old Skewl – Level 64 I think, and is just treading water… Dagger is so not fun to play I really have no big plans for him… maybe Turbine will give Dagger some love…So he is a true Mini mule.
Hail No – Level 68 he is a pretty good UA character but I like sword better so by default he is collecting Mini Trophies…
My 2 other characters Kasper Gutman and Signor Ferrari are not in the clan yet they are just kind of hanging out at the moment level 30 ish… probably should get them in the clan and flagged for mini’s both are pretty decent characters Archer the other UA. I will give a pyreal if someone knows where those two character names came from without using the internet… (Hint they are both from movies).
As I mentioned I am mainly playing S n S. My time is pretty much spent in Mini’s and the occasional quest… need to get a gem from a fallen so I can get flagged for Viss… I will be tryin to get to Sing Caul after my mini runs to see if I can get the final item for the Viss Flagging Quest… Saw we will be running a Caul flagging Sunday this week so might see if I can do that, if RL will let me…
So that is pretty much it… On game autopilot right now… Will see you when I cya in game :-)

It has been awhile… sad to see that there are not too many posts since I last posted… I guess boards are basically dead now with Wiki’s, blogs and alternate ways of getting out information. I had hoped the quest calendar had been updated, oh well. I did use that as a resource ,but understand if no one uses it… what is the point… Well on my continued quest to own this board I will make another post…<wink>…
Ok… quick update not too much to talk about… other than I am mobilizing for duty in the next few months. I recently got married and all the effort of moving and fixing up houses has kept me out of the game most of the last couple of months. I have been jumping on from time to time to do mini’s. Things are starting to settle down a little so, Ishould be in game a little bit more…
Quick update on S n S… Level 156, base sword is 415 still struggling to get to 420 but getting closer… I did pull a decent sword from a chest a few weeks ago… It is a 420 sword… 31.xx-58 11% ,11%... If it survives rending and I can get 10 tinks on it might end up Slash Rend, 40-62 ish, (16% 11% or 14%,13%) I will have to think on the percentages… If anyone has some tink thoughts let me know…and I still have my Rabbit’s Foot so that will help as well… oh yeah and it has Epic Quickness on it… and few other level 7 spells Infected Carcass and Atlan Atrocity… it is not uber uber but not too bad…
I have been developing my sub-characters with mini trophies as well… I have couple in the level 70 range… Hail No is a UA/Archer and has a 315 base bow skill now and pretty high UA skill (forgot that I spec'd bow on him during creation since I played UA exclusivily)… and Mu Lech War/Life mage is progressing although I ran him to a blighted Moarsmen Fort and he got owned… probably because I do not know how to play a mage and partly because my bar was not setup right, which I figured out after about 10 seconds… oomph…oomph…dead… oh yeah and no melee d… When you play a tank character it is hard to shift gears to a mage…I have actually been putting a lot of points in creature for him to qualify for the Scrying Orb… he has a ways to go, maybe like 10 points or so…
I hope to see everyone in game soon… like I said I have been on a little but have been keeping a low profile (not been talking much because my time is so limited… It has been get in…get out…)
Laters…

Ok… another update… I made 420 base sword… that took forever… I am ready to work on my only 420 sword a (broad sword with Epic Quickness)…Chu helped me get some materials to tink it. I just need to get some Full Proof for Slash Rending and I have no idea where to get that or really what it is… (Not up to speed on the tink stuff)… Anyway I was pretty excited to finally achieve that particular goal.
Went on one of the Kings Quests last night… I really did not take much damage even though I was attacking everything around me… I guess I was lucky I did not get swallowed… decent xp and Mana Forge Key but the quest took a long time…my recent pulls have been junk for the most part from the chests (except a pretty cool sword...see above)… I will try and jump on and use my key tonight there was a line last night…Thanks to WS and Anna for leading the quest…
So now that I have made my goal on my sword skill I think I will concentrate on my magic and magic d because they are relatively inexpensive… am also trying to qualify for the scrying orb, which requires 355 creature skill (I think that is buffed) if not, then never mind. I think I should make it pretty quick…It is also time to get serious about DI flagging… I need the idiots walk through guide for that one though… I also want to do the augmentation quest and get a few augs like (do not loose buffs on death), (do not loose death items) and of course (longer buffs)… (Guess that is like 3+ months and a ton of XP) Of course I would like to augment some base skills as well… I am not sure what the level requirement is for that either…guess I will do some research when I have time…
I would like to get to Level 190-200’ish (now that is optimistic) before I get my free trip overseas courtesy of Uncle Sam…. Then I will likely be taking a 8-10 month AC break…
Anywho… I will probably be off and on for mini’s the next few days… I might try and get lucky finding that Schechadfjasd <sp> Gem that I need for DI flagging… I have plans almost every night this week and it is a drill weekend, so not much AC for me this coming week and weekend… Hopefully I will make Level 160 by Thursday…might be tough though because I am almost out of Ivory a.k.a. “Mini’s Crack”
Hopefully cya in game …

SnS,
I know you don't know me but I was you it seems 1,000,000 years ago! Â Reading your mini blog is like reading the old school adventures of Altan the Red. Â Very Fun and Congrats on the levels!
The 1st thing I noticed is that you got to run with Chu  Well my friend that makes you very lucky indeed, I envy you and miss Chu.
Otherwise speaking as an Old School tank and having no idea of what current people are looking for and little recollection of what I had all I can say is it looks like you are right on track!
I wish you all the luck in the world!
Altan "who?" the Red

…and now another update…and now another update…and now another update…
Well I planned to play like 5 minutes last night and was on for 2 hours. I actually was at home all day due to a dentist appointment so I jumped in the game to see if I could find that dang blasted…(self filtering here) Sezzherei’s Lair Portal gem (thank you Iphone…I now have the proper spelling…) all AC related sites are blocked here at work except the DOJ site… Well I found a Fallen Shadow and beat him to a pulp…He was much like killing Killa or AZ not really hard., just took a lonnnnnnnnnnnggggggg…… time. I also got a Fallen Staff which is kind of nice, but since I am not using my staff skill at the moment it is just added weight. It might be of some use down the road if I put some points back into staff… Of course once I had the gem I had to try and solo the Gateway to the Deep quest to get flagged for Viss… I read through the walkthrough and it sounded tough in parts, but possibly doable and for the most part it turned out to be pretty easy… I already had the Aerlinthe Recall and am LS’d in AB…so it started extremely smooth…. Upon entry to the dungeon no big mobs it is a safe drop and for the most part I did not take much damage through 95% of the dungeon… There are some traps but I must have resisted them because my health did not drop…Everything was going great…..that is until I got to the last room... I did a quick run in to survey things… You can see the portal which is the goal of the first part of the Viss flagging… (Devasted Falacot Dungeon) and FYI there are 2 SSK chest in there on a static spawn… if you are like me and have some SSKs’ laying around that might be good to know… and now back to the quest… The final room has quite a few baddies in there high level Wisp’s, Bone Scourges, Doomed Spirits… all these I can handle because that is what populated the dungeon up until this point… In the walkthrough notes there is a reference to Mu-miyah Sentinel at the end hitting pretty hard… I can tell you, that is an accurate statement…I am thinking there are like 10-12 of the Mu-miyah in there and with all of the other creatures there is a lot of magical and physical damage coming your way quick… I actually made it in and out of the room and pulled a few things with me and killed them off… I took a 60% hit to my health… I healed up and made the decision to run a circle in the room to stir up the creatures then open the door and hit the portal… and it would have worked too… if all of the creatures had followed me… unfortunately several of the Wisps did not and stayed in front of the gates/doors…(You cannot really see them either, the Wisps that is… which is a pain) so I am standing their trying to open the gates/doors but I cannot because they are blocked… Then magic love starts and then the physical love… oh yeah… I was down to 10% health in about 1 second… as fast as I could heal they got me down to near death… I am literally standing right in front of the portal that I need to take to safety, pretty much mobbed so I cannot move… I think we all know how the story ends… and it ends painfully…
Epilogue “My body lay battered before the iron gates as the swirling pink energy giggles ever so softly..."
Later last night, I went on BoneCrunch (led very well again by WS…) Thanks WS… Ringfoot was on and I asked him to help recover my body… He was kind and gave me a hand… We made it pretty quickly to my body and I took minimal damage... Ring is an Archer and that helped a lot to clear the last room... I logged out standing in front of the Gatekeepers… I am now flagged to use the shortcut portal at AB, so that will save me some headaches… Thanks again to Ringfoot… I could not have made it that far without your help… ---Next Episode--- “Can S n S solo The Gateway of Shemza?”
-- and now a quick S n S character update--
I think I mentioned I am trying to get my buffed creature to 355, so I can use my Scrying Orb… I also think I mentioned I was pretty close… I am reconsidering that, as I am like 14 points off and it is already starting to get expensive… oh well I will keep at it… hopefully it will not be another “I am trying to get to 420 base sword story again…” I made level 160 last night.. Woot! that means only 115 more until I am level capped…All my points went into Focus/Self/Creature… and this will be the trend for awhile… then it will be endurance… maybe I will try and solo the Augmentation Quest in the near future… I guess I can bank mini trophies for that XP…
Stayed Tuned….
PS – Thanks to Altan for his kind words and support… It sounds like he is playing WOW now… Hopefully he will come home to AC…
