Fly For F— forget it

(Aren’t parodies of that name just soooo old? But people still do it, just because the name Fly For Fun is just screaming to be changed into something else.)

(Btw, when I say forget it, I mean forget trying to think of something else that starts with F other than Fun. Not forget the game of FlyFF itself.)

Well what do you know. I vow not to touch MapleStory until May so I can concentrate on school and get all A’s for once.

(I’m really ticked off, because I was sooo close and then my English teacher HAD to deduct 75 (!) points because a few papers were in the wrong places. Almost a full letter grade. How unfair is that?!)

But not playing any games is against Saph’s nature. Since there was no little mushroom-shaped shortcut on my desktop any more, I simply chose a different one.

And thus another soul has been stolen by the entity that is FlyFF.

I suppose it isn’t as bad. FlyFF doesn’t syphon out nearly as much of my free time as MS used to. Except with the extra free time, I waste it doing nothing. So, it doesn’t make much of a positive difference unfortunately >.>

Anyway, say hello to the level 8 vagrant that is CestbonSage. Who most likely will still be level 8 next time you check.

Because the other day, I was training on Burudengs as a level 8, getting dismayed at getting about 0.3% per kill and taking about 10 hits to kill each one. When I was just about to come to the conclusion that FlyFF’s leveling curve sucks even more than MS’s…

I killed a Pukepuke. And came to the shocking realization that I was training in the wrong place this whole time, and experience depends on level. Crap.

(Note: Makes sense, now that I think about it. It’s just like RuneScape, way back when, where you take a whole bunch of hits to kill stuff. Except in RuneScape, experience was the same regardless of level, so the fastest exp until like level 50+ was killing chickens *rolls eyes*)

The whole ‘stay at one place as long as it’s easy’ came from killing MS snails from level 1 to level 10, I guess.

And it’ll take a while for me to adjust to this sort of thing. Changing monsters every couple of levels, that is. So don’t be surprised if you see a level 14 vagrant named CestbonSage killing Pukepukes and getting pitiful amounts of exp. And not realizing that he should MOVE.

Well, that ends this nonsensical, choppy, picture-less (I’m sorry about that btw, it’s just that when you’re trying to get straight where you should be training, taking pictures of yourself is the last thing on your mind ) blog. Happy… Mapling/FlyFFing/ … … ahh screw it. Happy MMOing. There, that does it.

P.S. to anyone that plays a flute, NEVER try and learn to play an alto saxophone. You have to blow so much harder, it isn’t even funny…

  1. Imo Flyff > Maple. THe gameplay makes more sense. WHat I dont like is the skill levelling which is slower than a snail on a reverse conveyor belt. . . And the early skills for a merc are crap.

  2. To anyone that plays/ed an alto saxophone: never try playing a flute. You just end up blowing too hard and making funny whistling noises.

    Anyway. Add me if I’m on when we’re on, Indescane in Mia (of course ;D)

  3. Move along. Explore, even if you get lost like heck. Heck, even getting lost might help you find more monsters. Just remember to ‘run like the river’ when you see Giants or aggro monsters that have levels waay higher than you.

    Might help to see if there is a little arrow pointing downwards next to the creature’s name above that lifebar at the top of the screen. You know, that one that appears when you hover your pointer over or start killing a creature. There’s a small arrow down/up, or no arrows at all, or a larger arrow down/up. I sort of observe that with the small arrow down, you get itsy exp; with the large arrow down, it’s zilch exp. And with no arrows. . .heh. You’re on the correct monster. 😛

  4. Can you make guilds or clans in FlyFF? If so, someone should make a BrianClan xD

    Even if the Giant Monsters are near your level, they’re obscenely powerful. Get a group to take ’em out.

    It’s okay Saphhire, ’cause I was killing a ton of monsters at level 15, looked up, and my EXP bar didn’t go up. I started freaking out, then remembered the wise words of my info Pang thingie. “The exp is not gained after level 15.” I saved exploring ’till I could fly. Now I only fear changing continents.

  6. I was too busy trying to get my job adv to notice the EXP bar at level 15. XD

    That Pang is so squishy I want to squishily squish it. ^^

  7. Changing continents? Pshh.

    Acrobats have to go to freakin’ Darkon to get their job change. And I freakin’ got killed by a freakin’ level 6x aggro. In one hit too.
