My Non-Tabula Rasa Time
Well, since Pious Sodality disbanded over a week ago, I’ve stopped playing.
Sure, there’s a laundry list of reasons, and personally, I can’t stand the fact that it’s come to this, as I’ve invested a decent amount of time in the game as well as clan oriented stuff, as I did run the forums, custom built some back-end apps, etc. All that work, feels like it’s gone down the drain
I hope to be able to pick up Tabula Rasa again sometime, but it won’t be soon. I’ve been giving the PS3 lots of attention with the lack of MMO stuff I’m involved in. There’s nothing amazing going on non-Tabula Rasa related other than the games I’m attempting to catch up on now.
Lost My Clan
Pious Sodality has been disbanded. Feel free to view the website and look at Holydragon’s post.
On another note, if anyone knows a great clan, let me know!
And So I Wait…
Sometimes playing games can be great fun, but when you start repeating content, and actually have very little reason to replay it, lore aside, it can get pretty monotonous.
My 50 Spy has seen a little playtime, primarily just token grinding. I even logged onto my non-thrax Demolitionist and re-equipped her, as 1) I think the humans are cuter and 2) The 1.7 patch en route makes use of stats other than body, if you use crab mines or anything.
I even have a level 8 soldier that I’m taking time to read all the quests, the turn ins, and am trying to get a comprehensive outlook on the entire game world and it’s lore. But it’s slow going, and I keep having to reign myself in.
I think the biggest disappointment I had was this past Feedback Friday where everyone found out that elder-game content is still aways away, as well as PAU’s and other various features that people have been oohing and aahing over.
For me, I’ve got until June 7th to decide what to do. I would like to stay, I like my clan and have friends that play, but I am tired of leveling and now, repeating the same content is becoming a little mundane as well. But I’m trying to hold on.
Level 50 & Waiting
I hit level 50 around midnight, on Friday. That being said, I haven’t played at all since then.
I’ve worn myself out over the past few weeks, grinding away, having fun, but keeping consistent. Now, I’m thinking a break may help. I didn’t get on the game all weekend, and it may be another few nights before I do. But, when I do get on, I don’t feel like leveling another toon, that’s for sure.
I’ll probably do what Holydragon suggests and just recruit for a while, for a week or more. I’ll help anyone that asks, but really, I’ve no desire to grind again at all right now, nor to even run instances.
I just hope they get some elder-game content in soon, because other than seeing the sights, there isn’t a whole lot for me to do.
Still Kicking After 48 Levels
I made 48 with my Spy last night, and while I really enjoy all the amazing skills and abilities, especially my Sword of Doom, I can’t help but feel blah about hitting 50.
With a x6 exp modifier, and a +50% exp bonus token, I went from 46.5 to 48.2 in probably about 2 hours in Descent. It’s actually very fun, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I think its too much. The max bonus really should be like x4, and with a 50% modifier, that’s a x6. But for me, that will come too late. I’m going to be staring down level 50 this weekend, and I’ve not got much to look forward to.
It’s no secret that there really isn’t any elder-game content and unfortunately for me, I’m not up for consistently farming CP’s for tokens for alts, or just item grinding. Maybe I’ll take this toon back and actually do everything I missed, as I jumped to grinding after I almost finished Plateau (Maligo Base and Uster Yard are all I’ve got left there).
Pushing To 50 – With A Stop Or Two On The Way
Well, I think I was able to kick myself out of a lull I fell into. I’ve got almost half my level at 46 from Assault Token farming in Marshes. Not too shabby, and I’ve easily gotten my needed 2 respecs (which are transferable via the storage box, btw). I used one of them to help me respec for more PvP purposes. Let me just say, Lightning 4 is nasty (the stun is just what I need!)
So, I hope to hit 50 this weekend, and maybe spend some more time recruiting and PvP’ing. On Monday, my recently scored Guitar Hero 3 Wireless Bundle will be here, and I’ll probably take a good couple days off for some much needed console luv’n.
46 Spy LFVacation!
I pushed from 39 to 46 this past weekend on my Spy and I think I burnt myself out, at least some. We had a weekend PvP war, and truthfully it was great until Sunday, where we proceeded to die consistently, even against the same level ranges with the same member count. Our clan is amazingly not ready for PvP, and the lack of 50s doesn’t help.
We’ve got lots of training to do, and me being a General I believe I need to take part in this. Problem is, I have little desire to play TR at all, truthfully. I played some last night and ground CP assault tokens, but other than that, right now, I’m just exhausted.
I haven’t been feeling great in the real life I live, add that to being down because of PvP and the direction the clan is to be headed, and I’m just wanting to get away for a little while. It’s not just a TR thing, I’m amazingly bored with my normally un-boring day-job as a web programmer. It feels like I just need to get out.
We’ve got a clan meeting this weekend, and I’m sure the issues regarding our clan war (and devastating loss) will be brought up, and that we’re going to be pushing for people to hit 50, and soon.
At least I’m almost there on one of my toons.
