Eye want my Erase


Black Mage:56 White Mage:51 Warrior:56 Thief:65


I am currently saving up everything I can to buy my Erase scroll. I can't shake the feeling that my WHM is getting left behind as my other jobs prosper. In that vein, I have used up my Conquest Points to sell stuff to make money to buy my scroll. So far I have 400k saved up but I think it will cost me about 500k. Thankfully the price has come down 100k so I gotta find some way to snatch up that scroll soon before it goes back up again and I end up getting an Executioner's Blade or something for my WAR.

This is a picture of my WHM. I have been using him a lot lately for various things. It's amazing how often I pull him out to do teleports and heal people and like use the sub. I am sure that I am going to sub WHM when I fight Maat but I am not sure if it will be werf it.

I tried to get on with a team of people all set to do 7-1 and 7-2 but when we got there, and after several people disbanded, one of the mages casted something and threw the whole thing away like trash. I died even. The last time I did this the same thing happened, someone casted Sneak or something and the bots and weapons both aggroed and then it was really too much for us to handle. I am really getting sick of dying for stupid stuff. I ask them to get more people and told them that I would wait for them at Ro'Mauve, but they were too disgusted. Bah! Next time they try to do it the same thing is gonna happen and they will never get the thing done. At least this time we had people that were wise to the situation.

People often don't see the good side of failure and what it bestows on you. It bestows you feel like a NOOB, sure, but I am reminded of an old lesson of someone that made a mistake and lost the company a million dollars said to his boss. "Why am I not fired?" He said. "Because if I just spent a million dollars training you, why would I hire someone new?"

I bought a stack of Silent Oils just for the occasion and it cost me 24k for it. That's a bunch of money for friggin Sneak! Now I am under the 400k mark again. I hope my IM Gauntlets sell soon so I can at least be close to the 500k mark.

Why do we fall?
