The woes of an assist…

I will first give an explanation about… me. XD I love FlyFF, and I love being an assist, but it is a very frustrating thing. I really can’t figure why I love it so much. I have a FS Assist on Aibatt(Tohru lvl25), Lawolf(Laelie lvl16) and Mushpoie(Taejun Vagrant).

Anyway!

Today my Lawolf character became an assist! I have forgotten how hard the first levels of assist are. >> You only have heal, so you have to repeatedly tell people you can’t buff them because you don’t have buffs. And then they probably assume you just suck. But my first rant from today does not have to do with that.

I partied with someone that seemed like a good partner at the time… but that judgment was quickly changed when they asked me what my gender was. I replied female, like always, not expecting anything other than “oh cool” or something. But nope, this guy proceeds with:
“Nice ;)”
“You want to see my dicl”
“I want to see your pussi”
“u have msn??”

I obviously told him to shut up. But he kept on, and when I kicked him out of my party, he even asked me to add him back in! I threatened to report him to the GM if he kept on, and he did. Being rather… unknowing in this area, I shouted asking how to report people to GM. This ended in both of the GM names listed being offline and the issue just dissolving into nothing when I blocked the guy(now I no longer remember his name). That doesn’t mean I am not still pissed, and very disappointed with this games dealing with sexual harassment or harassment of any sort! There is no way to report things in game! And reading around, it seems that it wouldn’t have even been acknowledged anyway. FlyFF is probably the worst game I’ve played in the department of active authority figures. They just aren’t there! So no one obeys rules and treats everyone else like ****!

And now my second rant of the day. I was invited to another party, this time with three apparent noobs. One stood out, though. >_> I told them over and over that they need to stay together, and that even with three people, it is not worth it to kill bangs when the offensive ones are only level 12. But of course, they attack bangs, and run off in opposite directions. So I try my hardest to heal between them when they get hit, but the running distance is too far apart to be effective. And the Main Idiot has died twice by this time, by his fault, and he dies again on their latest SCATTER! escapade. This time he starts yelling at me for being a ****ty Assist, and about how he keeps getting the short end of the stick. Of course you get the short end of the stick, you were the one who told me to follow the mage and heal her, yet you go running off on your own at level 12 expecting to be able to kill bangs. I was so angry… I am not a ****ty assist, I can’t be effective if you do everything in your power to make my job as hard as possible! GAH.

But then, my day rounded out rather nicely. I found a nice Acrobat and Mercenary that acted together, set the item drop to random and gave me refreshers and quest items and made my day worth it. 😀 Now to get to level 18!

  2. Ugh, I hear you on being an assist and healing jerks like that. It is fun playing most of the time but it’s really hard at first. My poor assist is still only lvl 16, because even though I have a high lvl of heal (I forget what it is but it’s like 7 or 8), no one wants to party me cos I haven’t got buffs yet. (-_-)

    And I agree, there needs to be a better reporting system. There’s not that many GMs sadly, and their emails are always so full of spam/bs complaints that even if you did email them, they wouldn’t see it or respond to it right away. Plus the fact they’re hardly on anymore, except to give us a notice or do an event. (x_x)

  3. Lol. I quit level FLYFF at like lvl16 because the rarity of quest item drops irked me to no end. xD

  4. I hate people like that. It’s annoying.

    How DO you report people? You used to just be able to send in a picture and an explanation to the GM’s,

  5. Flyff is a really good game,The problem is the community,It’s the worst community I saw in my life.

    You can easily report people to the GMs in game,Just go to the NPC that sells brooms&boards and choose the “send mail” option,or something like that.

  6. Yes, Flyff IS an awesome game. (Level 40 FS Assist, whoot!), but alot of people, ESPECIALLY in parties, abuse us poor assists, just because we need to be in a party to train at all.

    So, are you full support or not? <3

  7. TRUEEE! I’m a level 28 assist, it’s so hard in these levels. They always get mad when an aggro atks me and I have to run away. it’s a hard knock life D:
