Cabal left today and sacrificed rares. I've completely lost all desire to play him and didn't feel right hanging on when there were people waiting to get in. He was made to allow me the ability to log in, pick a challenge, fight and log out again when my playtime was very low. It worked well, but I learned that I don't have the spine for training them. The skills I could deal with, but the anatomies... My God, that is nuts. I asked for sparring sessions countless times but never had much luck.

I want to thank all of you that offered support in game. Ironically, the DKs that challenged me frequently were actually the most helpful with suggestions and throwing equipment my way. Zovaek traded me something?, for a fire lance I held almost the entire time.

I wish I had gotten the chance to see what T skills were like as many said it would make a big difference. Also, I never did figure out how to take down a communer which I wanted to do. Think I went 0-11 vs communers. My saves always suck, rare I ever have anything better than -10.

Not sure what to make now. I've got about a week to train something before my playtime nosedives again.

Too heavy. Been there, Can't seem to carry the extra armors to switch into. If you plan for spellcasters, you get warriors. As a WM you needed both and with that strength it wasn't there. Sad to see this one go, I actually thought he was one to go far.

Chaotic neutral? That's gutsy. I wish we'd been able to interact more to see that alignment alone. I've had one chaotic neutral character ever, and I don't know if I'll ever make another. It was tons of fun, but it was really difficult to get right.

As for the other aspects, we had I believe a total of one interaction. It was kind of fun, but I would've liked to have more. I can understand losing feeling for a character and a desire to play said character. Hopefully your next will go better.

Bleh, I had some sort of RP for him at creation and completely lost it amongst the endless hours of training anatomies, so it was pretty much non-existent. You have great RP abilities. My RP is even worse than my PK.

Yeah, training, collecting consumables, finding gear, you can really lose your RP to that. I've been having to fight pretty hard recently not to lose mine. It's all a matter of reminding myself that the RP is the most important thing to me, so I shouldn't let PK prevent it from happening. If I lose my RP, the character's dead, and I don't like playing multiple characters at once.

Yo u just have to step in and say your a pimp Peras- I see you on as much as I play- and I always have enjoyed the interactions you throw out there.

Too bad about barenwick : /

I think Zet helped you on some anatomy once in a while.

Props to you man- I couldnt play a blade master yet lol

Waiting for the next.

:D

Tsk' date=' tsk, tsk. :( That's no way to go about it. I sincerely hope you didn't leave because you didn't get T.[/quote']

Nah. But that was one of my regrets.. not being able to see what it was like. This was my second cabal experience, and my first doesn't really count since it was extremely short lived. Newb DK in syndicate was a bad bad decision. The hopes of getting T did get me to push onward through a lot of frustration though. I really wanted to see what it was like. If the cabal wasn't full I'd have stuck around a lot longer. I just didn't feel right having people waiting for a spot when my heart wasn't completely in it.

You'd have gotten T in the near future if you already fullfilled the requirements (type cabal promotion to see next time you are caballed). Not sure you had enough challenges yet.

Eh? Requirements? I thought getting to T was based solely on IMM discretion? I simply attributed my lack of promotion to my inability to PK very well and shaky RP.

Am I missing something?

And yet the Reverend hears your heart. There is regret. Anguish. Remorse. Unfinished business. Come give me a hug and let the healing process begin....we'll get Anume in here...it can be a group hug....;)

And with that, I'll stop inundating the forums for the night and head home for homework. Good luck with your next project, Bert.

EDIT: Warmasters have to complete so many challenges to advance. I think it's 10 per rank, but I never made it past M.

Many cabals have minimum requirements beside hours played, for WMs that is challenges. Cabal promotion will tell you how many you still need. It is up to the cabal imm to promote you earlier if you really shine, however this will rarely be done.

So you automatically get promoted to the next rank if you meet certain requirements (time, challenges, etc)? Just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly... I sure hope not. If I just resigned and could have achieved a goal I had set I'm going to be horribly unhappy.

You were trusted, dude.

WTF. I don't remember seeing any message or anything. Shouldn't I have seen something? I know I did the first two promotions I got. You've got to be kidding me... mother ******. How is that possible? I've been waiting and waiting and checking.

You better not be screwing with me J, I'm really ******* mad.

I told you that you were Trusted. It doesn't tell you when you get promoted. You just have to pay attention to when you log in and it says something like, "Welcome Barenwick Gladiator of Warmaster" or something of that nature.

Look at the damn score you posted. It says you are trusted. Gladiator is trusted rank of warmaster.
