Snuggly has a new flavor of the month!
Slowly but surely, gutting anticans open started losing its appeal. So I wondered what else I could do that would be a fresh start on something entirely new. A week past, I tried my hand at Red Mage'ing, but alas, all those spells I needed to cast to somehow manage to deal decent damage didn't do me in. So I kept pondering for a while.
Last night, I got really tired and decided to go back to Windurst back in the Shadowlord Era, and train myself on my Black Mage upon the invading Yagudo forces. Suffice to say, my nukes weren't strong enough to make a noticeable difference. So I stepped back into the role of "gimped healer". How often I wished I had my Paladin's Cure IV at the very least...
That's when it hit me. Like a hammer blow to the back of my skull. Either that or a Yagudo got the jump on me. Why not try out White Mage? Once the battle was over, that's exactly what I did. I Warped back to Jeuno and geared myself up. I even crafted my own Holy Maul seeing how none were available on the Auction House. All I'm missing right now is a Holy Breastplate.
Signal and Tactics Pearls in hand, I swiftly 'ported myself to the desert to give this a shot. Target : Giant Spiders. Boy, those things are really squishy! Now I see why Mei-chan wants to melee that badly : hammer blows to the head are fun-fun-fun! I don't understand though how come it feels easier to do this as a White Mage than a Red Mage, but heh, no use complaining, right?
So far, I really appreciate the ease with which I can move about, with all those teleport spells handy. I can Haste and Erase myself, even Shell and Protect Sahyu! This is really cool.
Let's cross fingers that hype'll last longer than a month or two.
