Oh hell, this isn't where I wanted to go... *sigh*
Okay, okay. I honestly don't want to make it seem like I'm trying to be a sort of stuck-up, wanna-be "know it all" who thinks he's better then anyone else. I don't EVER want to be like that type of person. EVER.
I know it's a team based game; I know it needs effort to play. Why do you think I don't play with many people from the guild or with randoms that often? I know I'm not good at the game, it's why I'm playing with friends nearly all the time because I'm just playing it to have fun; I accept the fact that having more useful skills makes the quest easier on everyone else; I agree that it makes it unfair for everyone else who worked hard on sets to make the quest easier for the group; I understand it's a free item and it's really good, but even if i did get it, it'll just be wasted on me since I'm not the player worthy enough to use it, simply because of the fact I suck at the game, So why should I even try for it? The main fact is that I'm been so used to having so few skills for so long, is that it's just part of me not needing more skills, and it's still feels... well, "cheap" for having a lot of skills then what I normally have.
Another thing to note is that I'm not trying to make bad remarks to anyone with it. I don't want it to look like that, and if it is, sorry. I don't want to make it look like trying to get it was a "stupid" idea or whatever. If it wasn't limited to so many people, it would be a different story.
Skills wise on the armor, HGE I have already, and most you can avoid/block decently enough or don't need to worry about it since the monster will just ignore you and idle there/go for someone else. Luck I've never bothered with much, mostly for the fact that I'm not in any rush to get what I want right away, unless it made it like 100% or whatever. SW I got a headpiece for with adrenaline, and even then I don't use it much since I suck at the game, making it "harder" since I would die more if I used it. (Lao/Gao excluded)
Fox, I know you know the game a lot better then most of the people here, but I've become determined to stay on my path of mostly taking the harder route to playing the game by myself. Why? To try and better myself at it. If I have to take like 30+ minutes on a Hr31 espinas solo, use up nearly all my items, and actually have trouble, what makes you think I'd be good in a group? I try to make myself fight the monster alone to get better at it and learn it, so I don't have to worry about taking taking a lot of damage/items, so it puts me being less of a target as a reason why the quest failed.
I honestly can't explain why, but I've just become so damn set on getting myself better at the game that it's mostly the reason why I don't play with anyone else; I would be taking the big chances of making myself look like a fool while fighting.
...then again, I've already done that.
