Yet another MMO, RIFT

[slgrieb]

Of course, and you'd fit in perfectly! I hear the chloromancers are good, and I have no idea what they mix it with but the fire are supposed to have some hella AOEs.

So, waiting on this pretty big download to my PC, and when that's over I'll activate my daughter's account. arewetheryet? arewetheryet? Since my beloved child spent our free trial while she was sent home from school with a possible case of strep throat, I haven't played yet; 6 levels in an hour. For most games that wouldn't be too shabby. Rift? IDK. Mistress of the art, or poser?

Just trying to get a feel for how much trash talk I can give her.

And yes, she's started reading these posts. Beats being hung up (so to speak) on boys.

Hehe, well I'm looking forward to hearing from you in the game. Btw I'm very creative with my game names so to help you find me just add the name Niclo to your friend list in the game.

The kid had a charactier on another server, so she recreated it on gnarlwood, and is up and running. I've been super busy, and also got derailed further by having my office router crap out. Geez, can you do anything in the tech biz without an Internet connection anymore?

Just started playing, and created a High Elf Pyromancer who just obtained a second soul and went for Elementalist. My character revels in the name Slobberchops. yes. really. I mean, you can't take all this High Fantasy too seriously or you lose perspective. I think my daughter has the right take on the game: just kill everything. But doubtful that I'll be online 'till Friday evening. She'll play as long as she isn't physically removed from the computer I guess. We'll get synched up.

Got into some PVP arenas last night and I just had to brag, as a cleric class I feel I had made an achievement. I was the highest damage output with 31500 and highest for both teams for the match. Only to be followed by someone who did 8000 less than me. My friend claims the clerics are an OP class but to be honest I had to work my butt off for that output, plus it was based on AOE attacks which I was lucky to pull off on their entire team at once several times. BTW yes I tried to recreate it but I couldn't. So definately this was a score based on luck with the enemy huddling together.

So where is SL hiding? I never see you on in RIFT! BTW my GF and I hit 50, and did our first T1 raid. It was her first raid ever and on top of that as the lead tank. At first it was a bit rough but after the off tank showed her the ropes she did a fantastic job. Anyway it's 30 minutes into my shift I can't write a full story. Just wanted to keep the thread alive and see what's goin on.

Oh, I'm not dead, just suffering a severe case of recto-cranial impaction and a higher level of chaos and disorder than my standard already high level. Didn't have a chance to play for a solid week. Then we (duaghter) and I had a day or so of serious connection issues. This weekend, I pulled the water pump from the Suburban. 3 days later, I'm still trying to get enough of a break to put on the new pump. I'll drop a line soonest.
