As some of you know, I headed off Stormhammer and over to Tarew Marr. Now, on stormhammer I had 5 other people that logged in at the same time and made a balanced group. LFG? Pick up group? What's that?
So, I log in yesterday, nhinx is feeling sick, phabos is no where to be found, noisey isn't on my schedule and sanna is at anime club.
Sigh. I sort of felt like playing.

[62 warlord] XXX - plane of valor
So off I ramble, invis, figure out where BC is (it's IC or inner, not that I've ever exped in Valor anyway - but I'm not going to tell these yahoos I'm just moved from SH and don't know camp names, because they're going to be thinking "ebay!").
So, they rez the ranger, I buff, the ranger asks if I have STR. I point out that focus is 75 STR and is that not enough? He asks for "the stackable str." What? Well, I don't have IoS, so I throw diaku, which it turns out is "stackable str." I guessed right.
Well, this is the lamest camp ever (that is, easy and fast exp), so I decide to avatar everyone. I tell the ranger to tell me when avatar drops because I'm not timing it. He replies, "I just dinged, I don't have all my spells." Um, avatar is my... never mind, I have SCR3, I'll time it off my pet. the ogre says he doesn't need avatar. I say, really, you are at worn ATK cap (he's a 63 warrior)? You know that's *250* right. He replies, "that's like a lot of AoB and veng stuff, right?" "Yeah, vengeance 50 or so" "Oh."
I avatar him.
Well, the cleric, the ogre and the ranger all leave. The warrior that invited me repped them, and after a train or three ($%#$% see invis mobs that wander) we get settled in.
The replacement cleric CHed at 60 health and called med breaks. The beastlord windowed out and forgot he was playing, so he just sat there for 20 minutes then ninja looted the metallic liquid that dropped.
On the other hand, the monk did a great job pulling, the warrior that invited me was a good tank and knew how to use a shield hotkey, which I don't really need, but since I'm an agressive slower he used it a lot and the wizard ... dunno, did wizard stuff.
Wasn't as bad as it could've been and I racked up an AA in 2-3 hours of the most mindless playing I've seen.
Wasn't terrible I guess.

) , and likely some new enemies ( 
). Some days you'll be the only competent person in the group, and some days everyone will think you're the idiot. But on the whole, pick-up groups will get you there.
I miss Iroke.
