Lost Precipice - Gaming Age Force [GAF]

[ohnospyware]

Scyra, with the amazing help of Gaming Age Force [GAF], has now conquered all dungeons! I never thought I would get to play them so I'm extremely happy :)

Last week's Arah paths were quite fun. This week... No. Never again! Especially not Path 4. Now I know why "everyone" hates Arah. Thanks Retro, Modric, Saturdai and Crescendo for helping me get through this awful, awful place and keeping my mood up!

I see very angry people on my dash today. People screaming and swearing about Fractals. It feels like people have totally forgotten this “old” news post.

Fractals are now shorter because you only do them one at a time (and they are not random). Important change since I saw people yelling about not having time to do them. Anet will also change them to be “more accessible” and while we don’t really know the details and how this will work since it’s not released yet, maybe we should wait until we can try it before we scream about it? Also, more rewards! 

No need to use offensive words and throw tantrums quite yet I feel. Let Anet show us what they have in mind, try it when it’s released and if you still hate it you can speak to them and let them know it.

Please?

Every time I post a norn lady and the post get some reblogs (yayness, thanks soooo much!) there’s always at least one (often more) that reblog but tag them as human. :(

We finally reached Arah in the Gaming Age Force [GAF] Dungeon Event! The first two paths are now conquered! New and interesting, but too many parts where stealthing past everything is by far the best option.

The lovely group members this week: Ike, Saturdai, Modric and Crescendo <3

Lo visited The Ascalonian Catacombs. She wasn’t impressed.

I think I found a new look for Cato. Unless they release very nice new stuff I think I’m going with this.

Gaming Age Force [GAF] Dungeon Sunday! Crucible of Eternity this week and it was the most fun one since Aetherpath. :D

Bestest best team: appletoasty, Seda, Quenk and Crescendo!

[ohnospyware]

Iddia and friends!

[ohnospyware]

Just a random screenshot of Iddia because I really liked the orange shimmer the moa got in that exact location. It matched so well :D

Gaming Age Force [GAF] Dungeon Event day yay! Honor of the Waves this week and I must say I'm a bit disappointed. No fun encounter and worst of all, I didn't think it was that pretty! I usually love the Kodan stuff. Bah.

Many thanks to the nice party tho as always! Lordphantomhive, Sonicbug and appletoasty made sure I made it through... oh, and Crescendo of course ;)

Pre-HoT goal reached! 30 level 80s. Saving the others for leveling between the 5 Revenants.

This is fucking insane… I would imagine you leveled a lot of these up through Tomes though, if not, then it really is insane that you did this 30 times. I’m wondering how much effort you put into each one though. Like, is their crafting all at max, or did you only do that for certain characters? How many have max level exotic or ascended gear?

[ohnospyware]

No one is leveled by tomes only, tho all of them start on 20 (or 30 now) due to the b-day scrolls. I don’t PvP so the only tomes I get is the login reward ones and a single one here and there from chests. I save those for specific level steps when I have more trouble with a character. That’s mostly on thieves and the scholar classes. I bump them up to the next specialization slot level (like from 42 to 45 or 68 to 71) or to some level where I have a bunch of gear waiting. The last one (a thief) got bumped up from 57 to 60 because I had some rare gear on that level to help with survivability. I also use pretty much every booster that exist. I find it relaxing to do zone completion so that’s how I level :P

As for effort, it’s mostly the looks I spend time on and that’s the reason I have so many characters. Ascended stuff is made pretty much only for looks because I don’t care about the small stat bump compared to the price. I do give them all a complete set of lvl 80 exotics tho (full armor, 1-3 weapon sets depending on class + underwater weapons, backpack, rings and trinkets) plus an ascended amulet from laurels. I think the majority of them are zerkers which makes my wallet weep. I also give them sigils and runes, but not the most expensive options. Three of them do have full ascended gear since I made the three sets for the collection, so if I wanna do high level fractals or something I have some options.

I used cheap crafting (chef/jewel) to help level a bunch of the early ones but nowadays I skip that. I have maxed all crafting disciplines once and since everything is account bound I would see more of each as a waste of money.

How long did it take you to level that many 80s?? I'm only working on my 3rd and I'm so sick of leveling already!! What do you normally do to level up?

My total played time is 3400+ hours but thats far from just leveling time. The actual leveling takes no time at all now because I use all soooorts of boosters. I get boosts from my guild, food, fireworks and the XP and Killstreak boosters (nowadays a single booster, yay!). They also all start on lvl 20 since the first birthdays started rolling in. I save my login reward tomes for the ones that are a bit harder to level, especially to boost them up to the next specialization slot level (like from 68 to 71) if they start having lots of trouble.As for what I actually do it’s mostly just zone completion. Mainly the starter ones. I find it relaxing and usually watch a movie at the same time. Oh, I also use all other types of boosters to make the characters run faster and survive better and such.

My first level 80 took me almost 6 months to level, the latest one took me three days. Pretty big difference there! ;D
