I love scaring people. I’m sure this picture is going to be abused for the next year or so.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Before anyone freaks out, there were (and still are) 2 Pyra’s. One was (formerly) on Fenrir, but is now on Diabolos.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Yeah, those are the legs of my galka mule.<\/p>\n
Moving along. Yesterday morning it hit me, a THF\/COR has access to Slug Shot. I don’t have Ranger unlocked on Pyra, so all of the XBow\/Gun WSs are unavailable — or so I thought.<\/p>\n
I then went to Rollan Fields and had fun Slug Shotting with Acid Bolts.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
That was fun.<\/p>\n
Other than getting my Dancer to 47 (woo! 50 by the end of the week, depending on how Mario Kart goes), there isn’t much to update on.<\/p>\n
Except — I got to play a summoner in Limbus for the first time in about 4 months. Apollyon SE. If you are a summoner, you know what that means.<\/p>\n

Just a quick comment — some avatar melee hits (including Garuda and Leviathan) cause 0 dmg to these monsters. Oh well, I still get the big numbers from the Blood Pact.<\/p>\n

Sadly, the Ranger was out damaging the summoners. By a significant amount too.<\/p>\n
But not on floor 3 :).<\/p>\n

The next day I went to play with some Colibri to get my summoner death buffer back (I lost my buffer a few weeks ago camping a NM Antlion in the Chasm).<\/p>\n

I don’t think I’ve ever hit that high on a normal monster before. Avatar Blood Pact damage is capped to an extent. Before, people would try to get huge numbers on level 1-10 monsters. Not that it really matters, the lvl 70 Blood Pacts will 1-shot any monster under level 30.<\/p>\n
Oh, and I have a new least-favorite enemy TP ability:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Total dispel and damage. Fun. At least it left me with my food.<\/p>\n
That’s it for now. And go listen to Subdivisions by Rush (and All You Zombies by the Hooters).<\/p>\n
