canadiandiamondSo, it's been a pretty good weekend so far. It's almost over, and I'm writing this from the office sadly (had a few things to clue up that I just threw my arms up in the air come 5pm Friday and said I'd deal with it later, hah), but still, it's been nice.
Friday saw me run out of the office as soon as I could, heh, and I dove into more LOTRO when I got home, finally getting my Hunter to the level cap of 65 just before our raid that night, which was a nice bonus. It was a lot of fun, I love the class so much, but as soon as I did it I shot![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
believeitup a tell saying something along the lines of "...I don't know what to do now." Which is true, kinda. I mean, I have a lot of polishing to do if I want to use her for raiding and such; she's in rough shape since I basically just leveled like mad and didn't spend all that much time tweaking her stats or her traits. That's what I'll work on for now, I suppose, but almost as soon as I hit 65 and the satisfaction of doing that wore off (which was very fast), I felt a little aimless again.
That being said, I have some ideas for my main character there, a Burglar, but that'll take some time to develop and get ready, so I do have some things to occupy my time at least, which is a good thing. I'm thinking I'll split the difference this week between polishing my Hunter and working on stuff for my Burg, and I'll be just fine.
Friday night we raided and had a rough time at first, rough enough that one of our regulars who's been having a hard time dropped group mid-raid again and is taking some time away from raiding, which is sad. He's a good guy and a great player, just very frustrated with things and the new raid, and I think there's some real life things going on too maybe, so I can totally understand why he'd be upset, but it sucks to lose him just the same. Hopefully some time away will do him some good and he'll be back soon enough, I know that's helped with me in the past. After that we lowered the difficulty and knocked out 2 of the 6 bosses in the new raid that night, which was nice.
Saturday afternoon I spent polishing my Hunter some more, and then Saturday night we were back in the new raid again, at the lower difficulty level again, and we knocked out the third boss and aaaaaaalmost have the fourth one down, which is awesome since we'd never even set foot inside the fourth area before last night. We're getting better at it, and I think by running it on the lower setting for now we're getting the strategies down and (hopefully) getting better gear and weapons out of it, so we can then tackle the harder setting and be more successful. It was a good night, with some communication issues aside, and hopefully we can build on that from here on out.
Other than that, had some weird, weird dreams last night. I dreamed I was in the game, which isn't unusual in and of itself (when I play a lot like I have lately this is a common thing, heh), but in my dream we were going to a raid area and passed a mailbox, where all these half-naked characters with lewd and odd names were lined up by the mailbox. Someone in the raid told me that they're the people who mail out all those Viagra and enhancement spam ads, and this is how they do it. And then we went into the raid which... wasn't a raid at all, but an episode of Glee, and I was in it. We were going to a strange school, looking for one of the students there, who or why I have no idea, but I was helping. And I ended up performing "Crazy" by Aerosmith while looking around, heh. Very very very odd indeed. >.>
So, that's my weekend in a nutshell. Now back to finishing up some paperwork and then back home to watch some hockey and either do more Hunter polishing or working on my Burg, or maybe I'll just read or watch a movie or something, we'll see. Hope everyone else has had a good weekend! :)
