EDIT: Holy pomegranate, I didn't realize I typed up that much, geez. I wouldn't be surprised if I got a tl;dr response to this one
Day 1: I make my character, planning on making him an archer, see the mass of people, and a sudden realization that I didn't actually research anything KoC involved whatsoever.
The newbie quests were cleared, surprised at people's unwillingness to just go in one of the side rooms, which tended to be empty for some reason. Hit level 10. Acouple friends make KoC characters too. I plan to junior them
I got to level 15 at Henesys Pig Farm before even realizing there were quests to be done! I immediately stop and do the quests, because I want to fight Francis. I spend the rest of the day on this, and hit level 30, jobchange, and stop for the day
Day 2: Day begins with me helping my buddies out. 30 minute x2 party exp is used on the lot of us. We get to work.
I decide to quest in Ariant/Magatia, kill various things, hit level 35. Attempt two games of CPQ. Sudden realization that without friends it is pointless/futile. Tried the Stone Golem minidungeon underneath sleepywood. Surprisingly good! I get to level 43, head to Singapore, and log off there.
Day 3: One of my juniors informs me he will be gone until monday. The other, that his connection is getting rather laggy and grinding is unbearable for the moment. I get the OK to use x2 party exp on myself, but that seems like such a waste, y'know?
Under an idea that I'd be able to kill Slimies on the ghost ship, I head there, and run into LoZMaster's dawn warrior along the way. We exchange greeting, and I offer him x2 party exp since I'm about to use it anyway. He is overjoyed! We add eachother as buddies and he juniors me, a decision he has yet to regret.
Grinded on Slimies for a bit, took a nap til x2. Got to kill Slimies at x4 exp for 15 minutes until a level 85 (?!) Hermit came in and KS'd me out. I double-checked there later... he was really training there himself and not kicking me out for someone else. Depressing.
I get to level 49 off of Jr. Selkies instead. I get the crazy idea to fight Wind Raiders later on. It works! Huzzah. I grind until level 53
Day 4: I fight Wind Raiders all the way to level 60. I convince LoZMaster to try it as well, despite his claims his dawn warrior would not be able to hit them. Amoria Baskets were received. Turns out he can. Happiness~. After hitting 60 I decide to log off and take a break to play other games for awhile. I find out I am the 8th strongest Wind Archer in Bera. I am frightened. I figure it won't last for long, however.
Will likely be killing Wind Raiders all the way to 70 after my break from the game...
