Sky's the Limit

My first time in Sky?

I dunno, man. Why you asking me all these questions?

I unlocked Sky a bit late in the game.

I believe it was a while after CoP came out, and everyone else was busy doing Sea and stuff. Fuckin' losers.

Guess it wasn't THAT late. People were still actively farming and there were plenty of Linkshells to join. One of which was EmnityLS, ran by a long time friend of mine Blksnk. He was too cool for vowels.

He taught me all there was to know about Sky. I learned about Despot, and Ullikummi, and Faust, and Steam Cleaner, and some other stupid name thing, and the fact Dragoons weren't welcome in sky.

But I was. Because I was a samurai who knew how to do my job! Also, I had a Hagun, so that helped.

It was right good at shit murdering.

And boy, did we murder shit. If I remember correctly, we farmed pop items Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and killed gods Saturday. They also had some stupid rule about points. You got points for showing up to help farm, and you spent points on god drops, which you could only do if you attended 2/3 of the farming runs.

Because of my living situation at the time, I wasn't able to play as much as I used to, so I would miss out on spending points a lot, which kinda turned me off to the whole Sky farming thing.

I loved the area, don't get me wrong. But it started seeming like a job, which wasn't fun to me.

It might be fun for other people, I dunno. But I just wanted to enjoy Sky. It was an amazingly crafted area.

So much shit to murder.

After I got a few god drops, I quit the Linkshell and went solo, murdering at my own pace. I couldn't do a whole lot in the area by myself, the monsters being infinity level and all, but that didn't matter.

Fun is what matters. Have fun!
