Quick History

This is my first post at my attempt on a blog documenting my tales and times in Tibia mainly on my Elder Druid Reprisal located on the Trimera Server, but to start off I would like to start a brief overview of my Tibia career from start to the present.

This is my blog, and its my way of sharing ALL of the events. I will try and not be too boastful about events, but I will definitely state my mind about Trimeran society and other such things.

The Beginning:
I started Tibia when my two real life friends Tim (Dooms Slayer) and Ben (Funky Prophet) started this 2D game in the late spring/summer of 2003. They also convinced Tim (Amun Thea), Mike (Spritzerx), and Joel (Polarism) to start playing as well. Grant (Dorite) started to play after hearing us talk about the game one day. My character never got above level 20, and I think I was killed in swamp trolls every other day. Usually I'd train and make runes south of Venore talking to Euler Ruler and anyone else that would come fish with me, but not much is to be said about this character. I'm not going to go into Trimeran history, but I'd say it was definitely some great times to be an average Trimeran spectator. After the huge hack into CIP, the servers went down and everyone was e-mailed new passwords. I quit after this for over a year, but then played again in Trimera sometime in 2004. I joined my real life friends in Sacred Warriors of Fury, a guild started in mid 2003 by The Merciful and later handed to Dooms Slayer who still runs it to this day. I was a vice in this guild among with players like Xanelas, Deepd, and Fatal Zio. Interestingly, during this time, I was invited to macro in Desert Dungeon by several of Trimeras top leaders today. It is knowledge that will forever be in our minds, but never spoken. I think it's for the best.

Mytheran Times:
For some reason, I quit Trimera and picked up in Mythera when it began sometime in the summer of 2005 with my good friend Tim (Amun Thea). Powergamers, and the sharers were large in number on this server. We created and led a guild (Black Rose) that was arguably top 3 in Mythera. The top two guilds contained many more powergamers, so we couldn't compete with them. Tim and I ruined all reputation we could ever have had on Mythera, so we disbanded the guild and quit forever. I still feel bad to this day abandoning our guild members considering they went to war several months later against the top players in the server, but it was something we had to do. I will forever remeber those members I was closest to. On Mythera I owned one of the Dream Street houses which I world traded for 16 bps of SD and 20 or so bps of explo for Trimera. I got hacked with a keylogger in fall of 2005. Both characters were stolen completely, and I didn't care enough to do the whole send into CIP thing. Tim/Amun and I had over 500K stolen from Tims house. The 500K+ in that time was a LOT of money.

Reprisal:
After all of that in summer of 2005, I quit Tibia completely for a solid couple months. I watched Tim/Dooms play one night, and I was interested again. I decided, why not pick up and start on an account I already had. I leveled her easily. Tim/Amun and I figured out a way to hunt Dragon Lords in Venore Dragon Lair very effectively in the mid 40's. This unique sort of tactic was rare in that time and helped us loot our very first Royal Helmet that he still wears upon his head to this day. I hunted Tombs and such in 2006 before Tim/Amun started a guild called Divine Disciples and we co-led that for a couple months. I developed several very good tibia friends that I was leveling with from lvl 10 to 65+ like Elitesaver, Kraeckin, Tabelus Son/Ge, Ston Kator, Master of Damage/Aeros, and a few others that I would have given my life for. I'm still close to almost all of them to this day.

Reprisal 60-80 & Viceslayer 0-63:
I leveled quite fast when I had a chance to play, and I started soloing heroes with mort around 65 when Rick/Lady Profits mentored me for a bit and showed me how to do it effectively. This was before most people knew about mid-level mages morting heroes for profit. I also camped Venore draggy lair and learned how to solo a dl without mana shield and vis in the 60's. I learned a great deal from him and from Lord Bicycle about being a mage. I quit for 9 months at around level 78 due to deaths and school. I moved to playing World of Warcraft, and quickly got lvl 70 and began to raid in a hardcore raiding guild and ripped through T4 content with ease. By June of 2007 we were running through T5 Content in SSC/TK, but it took up way too much time, and although I was one of the premiere Mages on the server, it wasn't worth my real life time, so I quit in July and took a couple month break from games. I started back with my level 78 druid and didn't feel satisfied, so I started a paladin "Viceslayer." I leveled and slightly trained from October 2007 until the christmas update. I got to level 63 when the christmas update came out, and I had to give my level 78 Elder Druid a shot again.

Level 80-present:
I leveled from 80-88 in 2 weeks or so with a couple deaths in between from kicks. This was the time that all the kicks were still happening with the dos attacks. I died twice @ level 88 in djinn tower, once without blessings, and was at the beginning of level of 86. This was January 13th 2008, my last login until May 12th of 2008. I learned so much during those 2-3 weeks of playing and exploring my newly reborn character. My skills as a Mage were being polished. I renewed my premmy on May12th, and since then, I'm trying to continue to improve my game and get back into the swing of things.
