Lowbies have come and gone, highbies have seen some game time, and Hami Raids have been the most frequent in ages. Of course, all of my screenies are at home and me at work, so they’re put off for the time being. (Add to the mix a house move this month, and they’re really on the backburner for a while)

Stormy: She’s added to her collection of Hami-O’s recently due to the increased frequency of raids, a couple in the past couple weeks. The one on Friday, which was an experiment failed and spawned Yellow Death. Though I’m now tempted to get her the Warburg nukes because they looked cool raining down on the purple Jello. Okay, she needs to do em eventually for the badge *ahem* as well as the time badges in both Bloody Bay and Warburg and kill badges in Siren’s Call.

I hate Siren’s Call. That seems to be where the most competitive PvP happens. I’ve been ganked in both BB and Warburg, but if you’re on the move in the latter two zones, you’re safe.

Rae: Rae’s been a busy little lass this weekend. She’s been up late and spending the wee hours of the night chewing through Longbow. Seriously. Picking the “Defeat all Longbow in base” mission in Warburg set to the middle difficulty setting can be churned through in 8-10 minutes. Completing 4 of those missions netted a bar of xp gain. Multiply that by quite a few bars *cough*.

Once I got the missions down to a grind and the ability to call the zone contact, it was a matter of grab next mission and zip along to it. Rinse, lather, repeat. Quite a few times.

It was /fun/ being able to chew through yellow and orange spawns with relative ease while soloing. I don’t think I could have ran through the same missions that quickly with anything other than a MM. A Corruptor, maybe, but definitely a MM. After all Dark’s difficulty is at the middle, and same setting and her and Sarge chew through those missions fairly easily.

But I digress. I’m so sick of looking at Longbow. Those red and white outfits have burned my eyes into oblivion and looking at them any more will make me want to throw things at them.

One thing I noticed though that was kinda interesting on Rae. If you scroll over the xp bar, it says 0/1692900 xp to level and the arbiter says you can gain 0 xp once you train up. This is different from Stormy where her xp bar says 10/10, a token amount for level 50, which can’t be levelled as well. Meaning that the dev’s implemented the 1-50 system into CoV, but it stops at 40 for the time being. Yes, the cap will be raised in the next issue, change whatever bit of code to turn on the xp gain and all the little 40’s will be able to level to 50.

Yes, I was a good little lass and remembered to take a couple screenies of that despite being very tired at the time.
