I thought I would post a quick picture of Qindaar decked out for the Holiday’s.

Qindaar has made great progress today earning three achievements towards the overall goal of Hero.  Been helping the guy above and his race while taking down Harpies and Griffons in the Blackroost.

Hope to catch up with Vmalice and Valmantia later this evening for some more Heroic Adventures in Dulak.

Qindaar finally was able to hook up with Valmantia and Vmalice, his good buddies in EQ and RL, we ran the Hero’s Adventure in Dulak last night.  Surprisingly this is part of the series Qindaar is working on, though at a much higher level, so it was great to get something above my level out of the way.

We had some fun events happen, Valmantia’s pet “Yummy” a giant gingerbread man ran off into the hills for some unknown reason which gave us all a good laugh and at one point Vmalice died, was resurrected and immediately set upon by the skeletons that chased him all the way to the zone in.

It was an interesting progression through a narrow valley or crevice with groups of MoB’s awaiting you at each turn and when you reached the end of the quest you had to blow up a wall.  That is where the dilemma started, we were banging away and banging away looking for the wall that we needed to hit.  The map I had up was incorrect, but the narration was correct, and we were able to end the quest.  Qindaar manages a thirteen percent XP gain and an additional AA point so it was a great opportunity, but not as much XP as running daily’s.

Do not know what is happening tonight but Qindaar will continue in the Hero of EverQuest Achievement this afternoon as usual.  He is making a good progress since he is now up to level fifty to fifty five MoB’s.

Qindaar thought this Quest would never end, the Quest of Ciodaru’s Love. It was a twelve part quest, that seemed to cover every skill set out there. Pottery, Poison, Alchemy, Smelting, baking, Jewelry crafting and Arrow making. Qindaar was lucky enough to have Rogue for a brother, one of my alternate characters, so Qindaar gathered all the ingredients for the extract and passed them on to Erimus to extract the ingredients out and give them back to Qindaar to prepare. If there was no Rogue Qindaar would have had to beg from some other player to make this stuff for him and Qindaar did not want to take the time to ask a fellow player for a favor.  Needless to say, it was accomplished and the Quest completed.

Qindaar finished up his six part quest, and just as he thought it was safe to move on he gets hit with a new twelve part quest with Jewelery crafting and baking experience needed.  This is getting ridiculous, all this work just to move onto a new zone. Qindaar is three tasks into this quest and hopes to finish it up by the end of the weekend, we shall see.

Qindaar managed to make it through the fourth quest in the six quest series, this was a very involved task requiring tailoring skill and blacksmithing skills.  Qindaar as required to make his own file, needle, make beads etc. to create a backpack.

Overall the task was an easy but time consuming event, but after it was completed a great sense of accomplishment.

Qindaar hopes to complete the series today.

On the flip side Qindaar has not had the opportunity to team up with Vmalice and Valmantia to work on the Veil of Tears progression. This week is not looking good either.

Qindaar is still working on this six part quest, hit a real snag today when he found out that he has to make a backpack.  Been killing spiders all afternoon for silk thread, still need to kill more, plus found out he has to forge a damned sewing needle. Now he has to figure out what is needed to forge a sewing needle, which means more running around to collect ore, etc.

I know Sony is trying to add more realism to the game by making you make real products to use, but on the other hand it is very time consuming to be chasing all over the place for this stuff.

Tomorrow is another day, so Qindaar will spend it over a hot forge trying to make a sewing needle. Isn’t there a 5 and dime store around?

Qindaar continues his quest to finish the Hero’s Achievement.  Right now he is getting ready to finish up his wotk in the Mesa and move on to Sunderhill Docks.  Working on the last six part quest with two down before moving on.

Hope to work with V,alice and Valmantia tonight to run daily’s and maybe wipe out another progression task in Veil of Tears.

Qindaar continued working on his progression quest for Hero’s Achievement. One thing that is annoying is all the running back through three zones. Is it really necessary to travel back to a starting point for a turn in. Serpents Spine is a huge area, are we going to be required to run back in every zone to Crescent Reach every time? Thankfully Qindaar can port to Crescent Reach but he still has to run to where he came from.

This is Pride Weekend in Palm Springs so there is a lot of RL events going on so there may be very little game play this weekend.

Qindaar spent a good part of the day working his way through progressions for  the Hero’s achievement.  Finally left Blightfire Moore and headed into Goru’kar Mesa only to find that he is KoS (Kill on Sight) so now Qindaar has to spend extra time to bring his faction standing up.  Going to have to research what favors he needs to do to raise his faction to at least indifferent to continue.
