Wow flustered from my party’s freestyle killing spree of some really oversized abominations about an hour ago, I’m writing this blog to once again assail you all with my prevalent ranting =D
Where should I start? Oh there’s so much to tell, just that my severe loss of brain cells from the countless near-death experiences forbids me to jabber on with a grandmother story.
Well basically I began my day after school, psyched that I had 72 hours of weekend to go thanks to Good Friday. I hastily rushed home for my routinely questing/grinding. At that time my devilrysoul was 30, barely mature enough to tackle the second Dradpet quest. Of course it was ruled out as at that level I was still dying at the merciless rock muscle in the first one. I conclude that Dradpet is crazy. I mean, not all classes are strong enough to continuously tank 600s.
Anyway I finished the red bang quest and collected my Etanale Sword, only to discover that that conspiring Luda’s sword was only worth 700 in the shop! Oh Luda you just wait. You’ll get it sooner or later. Yes, you just wait.
I then proceeded to kill giggle boxes. Completing the chain part up till Lord Bang was just substantial to inch myself to 31. I flew back to SainCity and started the Gigalande quest. And like what every employee thinks when his/her boss presents an unreasonable task, I muttered discontently to myself, ‘Why doesn’t he hunt the gigalandes himself?’
But alas, bad luck struck me. In despair I realised that I had not found a single of those purplish jewels after killing the giggling chests and bagging over 30% experience. How was I going to 30 that way? Dejected, I flew off in search of rock muscles, hoping they would prove to be a more potential alternative.
I drove the first one down. Almost at once a shiny moonrock was relinquished from its grasp.
Then the second one fell. Another moonrock! I was starting to feel confident about this place.
About 15% and 6 moonrocks into my grinding, another level 28 mercenary came fumbling along, dragging a good 3 or 4 aggros with him. Being the gentleman I am I instinctively rid him of his stony predators. We then formed a party for fun and continued battling the rocks. After another 5 minutes, grave music suddenly filled my screen as a Giant Rock Muscle minimally twice the size of a normal one appeared, whacking me for 563.
On one hand, I might have complimented it’s timely appearance. But on the other hand, I could save myself the trouble and run. I chose the latter. Madly sprinting away till the Rock Muscle has lumbered off, we bumped into another 35 mercenary.
I buffed him for fun and he requested to join the epic adventures of our plundering group. Do you all not recognise the power of buffs? It renders one’s mindset futile and obliges them to comply to my every word! MUAHAHAHAHA ^^
We then challenged the gigantic Muscle Rock, which was idling away when I could have done more productive stuff, like killing itself. The two mercs were the front line, striking away while I kept them alive with heal. We pwned it shortly after =D
High spirited, our mini troupe then expanded after the invitations of a few more members.
To cut a long story short, we killed 2 giant rock muscles, 1 giant bucrow and 1 giant dumbull.
The rock muscles were easier; the level 35 merc could tank all the damage while I could switch between fighting, healing and buffing. The bucrow was . . .huge. Really tall and big. In fact its towering appearance already gave me the creeps. So I did what was wisest; allow the poor merc to once again tank the giant’s attacks while we hammered away at it.
The dumbull proved to be the most challenging out of all 3. I mean, it naturally should be -.-
And of course, the drops were plentiful. By the time our massacre signalled an end I had levelled another time, now leaving me at 32 =P
All together I had gained 300k penya in profits, and a really wicked bow for my acrobat. I was incredulous too when I first picked it up. The stats are as the following:
STR and DEX + Redianer Bow
Attack: 72-73
Attack Speed: Fast
STR + 1
DEX + 2
Required level: 27
Not only does this have 10 more attack than the bow at the shop, it also provides 2 extra dexterity points. Moreover, speed breaks and critical chances greatly amplify the importance of each dexterity point. Looks like I’ll be attending to my acrobat and drool bout being able to wield the bow all day =O
Anyway from this oppurtunity I’ve learnt that:
a) When a giant dies, loot as quickly as possible.
b) Put yourself before others. Especially when pertaining to drops.
Nah I’m joking, but gianting is literally the true get-rich-quick method.
Looks like those over eaters better be on the look out for me now.
PS: Noticed how the head of this blog is too big and the tail, too small?
I can’t help it, been writing like that since the beginning of time =S
EDIT: I just had a nasty thought. If FlyFF addicts (not me!) see fat people, they might just bellow, ‘Giant alert! Prepare for assault! Giant alert!’
Not the funniest of phrases but mysteriously enjoyable enough at 1am in the wee hours of the morning o.O
I lmao’ed at that
Yeah. . . .Giant hunting seems to be the only reliable source of income at higher levels . . . .I spent 5 days + giant hunting on my billposter . . . .
EDIT: I might add that I was soloing them.
Ooh you soloed them. . .
Well but you should know it’s plain idiotic for a level 32 to attempt to solo a 41 giant =O
T.T strongest one I’ve killed was a giant Flybat (the level 25 one). Hmph gonna take on giant Mia once I get to wear my 33 set =D
XD
Makes me miss FlyFF. Almost.
Devvy makes me wanna go back to FlyFF instead of O2jam.
D:
One more blog and you’ll submit to the awesomeness of FlyFF XD
Nay, the poppy-ness and techno-ness of O2Jam will not stand unchallenged! *mad laughter*
2 more!
