Another fun night on PSU. I pretty much got my first true initiation of the Guntecher and what fun it was.
At first, I spent a few hours just trying to hunt rappies to no avail; then Magician and I partied with a friend of ours, from a different forum. He actually lives in Japan and it was his second day on. (He was level 9, and I believe his hunter class was 2)
After a quick run through Parum to De Ragon, we ended up spending all the rest of the time in Neudiaz. Needless to say, when you're toting a character that's barely crossing into double digit levels; you have your hands full. They were full, but they were a good kind of full. It was then, when I could really extend to the fullest of my class. My Weapons switch buttons were put to great use then. I even told them to expect to see me switching weapons A LOT, after a while. I was basically juggling around Attack Spells, Resta, Reverser, Dual Guns, and Rifles the whole time. Pretty much keeping our new crewmember alive, doing damage to monsters, and hitting them with major status effects.
There was one time when he died though. I have to remember, when someone is low level and in Neudiaz, some end of level boss attacks are as effective as a succesful Megid without being Megid. Still, it felt great because now I had someone to protect at the same time. It really put in nice advanced strategies to work and made the whole game feel deeper, because of it. I did manage to come to the rescue a good amount of times, but I also got to really satisfy my urge to cowboy-up with the Twin Gunnies.
Not to mention, I've raised Resta and Reverser more than I've had in the past, with this scenario. So I'm looking forward to more good times, like that. It's not exactly ranger, nor is it Force; but it's just a really fun support class where you work hard, but you feel great satisfaction in accomplishing what you do.
One another note, I actually almost caught up with some people I recognized from my days of playing FFXI. Looks like a good bit of them are here (including members from my first good party, in that game). They were members of Geezergamers so I'm hoping to hook back up with them. They're a little ahead of me, but not by much.
Note to self: Don't expect regular stores to sell anything but C weapons when you are of an Expert Class and it's level 1. Though it's kind of expensive to switch, just to buy 1 thing and switch back.
