What’s there to say? I done good, Wizet done good, everybody… done good.
Getting level 63 was a fun experience. Trying to find empty Zombie maps was … easy. Seeing as most everyone was at Aqua Road, I quickly snagged a map… and noticed some changes.
The timer on top of the screen, and the teleporting pits a la The Land of Wild Board 1. The timer… absolutely useless. Seeing as you can just go to another map and come back to refresh the timer, it does nothing except against people who are too stupid to figure this out. Anbu guild, I’m looking at you! (see previous blogs)
So, despite my digression, I quickly captured a z1 and killed happily to a good 75%. The pits allowed me to have a new strategy, namely, hitting every zombie on one side first, using a pit, hopping down and hitting every zombie on the other side, using THAT pit, waiting 15 seconds, dropping down and kicking undead butt.
It worked, too, until a ‘sin showed up. She mistook my waiting period as being AFK (she was obviously looking for an excuse to steal the map) and started killing zombies, saying that ‘being AFK = lose map.’
Arghh, how I wish for a /kill command right now.
This conflict continued for awhile, she apparently not realizing that we were both crippling each other’s EXP gain by about half. After about 20 minutes of idiocy, I experienced my first encounter with a deus ex machina! An assassin walked into the map, obviously with the intention of changing channels. I stopped him, and asked him if he’d help me. To my amazement, he said yes, and we partied up.
Seeing as me with Haste (a Lv. 62 Cleric at the time) can easily keep up with a level 58 assassin, I started to turn the KSing tides, while she begged the deus ex to help her instead. He believed my story instead of hers (Jeez, I must have some good karma on my side :P) and she was forced to leave, after defaming me. Jerk.
We went on for awhile, simply training together, and finally we added each other as buddies. He had to leave for awhile, so I continued training until a Lv. 9x Hermit came in, and again with the total lack of respect that assassins have become famous for (and it’s these idiots that do it) he began to KS me, unprovoked. I knew I wasn’t going to stand up to such an idiotically powerful … idiot, so I simply went channel surfing. I couldn’t find any empties, but one nice guy offered me his channel after he was done with it. I channel surfed some more, found nothing, until the aforementioned person gave me his channel. I went there, and took the channel, partying with a Fighter who was already there.
He invited a Spearman friend of his, and we killed happily until, what, the same 9x Hermit came in and continued from where he left off. We couldn’t stop him (again) so the Fighter promised to have some friends KS him, and we left for another channel. We didn’t get very far there, but I was at 90% and it was pretty late, so I logged off for then.

Today, I picked up from there and quickly leveled up. 😛

Aqua Road is better than I expected, save for the lack of much for me to kill. A few of my thunder-wizard teammates swear by the place, though. Wizet deserves no hate for Aqua Road, and the ability to own up to what they’ve done wrong.

But you can’t buy the pig-bag in Aqua Road anymore!
