Level 70!

Hurnscald

Well I did it, level 70! As a pre-celebration to 70 I dropped some coal outside of Hurnscald. I was close enough to 70 that I fulfilled the last 6% in the mines north of Hurnscald.

I met kr0n05 again, rather kr0n05 III. I had a bit of a talk with kr0n05 and it was refreshing to meet someone who wanted to do quests rather than ask others for items. I offered kr0n05 III some equipment which he politely turned down -- these are the kinds of players you want to help when they need something small that you've got (antenna, logs, etc.). After my bad experience (which is very rare) with the potty-mouthed players a couple of days ago, kr0n05 restored my faith in players.

Still no word on the RAM for the Auldsbel server, but I should have something to post in a day or two.

Training Day

I found a good training place in the desert caves for those high level characters (I'm 68) who can handle a couple of mountain snakes, but not 5 or 6 a time. In addition to mountain snakes this area is filled with yellow slimes, which means more iron ore drops, spiders (keys and infantry helmets), and of course skins, tongues and eggs from the mountain snakes. Spiders usually give around 300xp, mountain snakes over 400xp, and red slimes (which also frequent the area) drop some nice stuff that's worth 500+ gold. You won't level fast, but if you're on that last 20% it's a nice place if you can spend the time. So far it isn't filled with other players.
