From Bad to Great!

In Eden Eternal, had to do a quest that required a dungeon. Again 1-player dungeon was an option, but decided to have a party instead. Joined a party as a Thief, eventually got kicked out for dying only twice by an impatient, and hesitant to attack, tank. One of those players where everything has to be just right for them. He even said I could tell him what to do if I was a tank. So I took up on that offer and showed him how it's really done. Of course he got mad and kicked me out of the party. What a brat... eventually he came out and started bragging that he was finished. I paid no mind.

So I waited by the entrance looking for a party.

Made a new party, cleric this time... but was also a bust as the party members DCed (Disconnected) or had to leave while in the middle of the dungeon.

Third times the charm when a couple were looking for members. I convinced them to join us. They had a third but was nowhere in sight. Used two tanks and two healers. It was one hell of a dungeon! Took long with repeated events of dying (no penalty when in a dungeon, just a bit of a trip back depending on where you respawn.) Eventually me and my new to pals made it through. We eventually had to call in a high level player, where no exp will be given from kills. I'm sure we accumulated enough that we didn't really care and just wanted to finish this quest. We were at the last boss anyway.

I had fun at first, funny times when the cleric, not me, had to run while being pursued. I couldn't help but laughing while picturing the cleric screaming and crying for help and maybe yelling "I'm a healer! Not a fighter!" Would be so funny to see if it really happened like that. Eventually it was becoming quite frustrating when some of our party members suddenly went AWOL or DCed. Those two still really stick around, and I appreciated that very much.

I told them they made this mouse (there was no cats in the game, mouse was closest) very happy. I'm sure they were happy to hear that.

One of them did offer me to date her sister, after I told them I envied their relationship after knowing that... despite I was too old, I didn't want to do another online relationship anyway. I couldn't handle that again (long story behind that, may tell in the future).

One of them, not the high level, did get the trophy from the final boss... I thought they deserved it and let that be my gift to them. Also let them know if they need any help to call me. I'm usually a melee DPS, but I learned I need to work on my healing and tank class branches as well.

Think I'll stick with Melee DPS, Healing, and Defense class branches only instead of all 5 (Magic and Range). This will help me prioritize my weapon and armor much easier and save up item space. I might change in the future, but for now I'll stick with those three branches. It's good to be flexible in your classes in Eden. When I log back in, I'll have to do a spring cleaning of my inventory and armor.

Overall, had fun in the end. Part of me did want to quit, but I was almost done to call it quits and do a 1-player dungeon instead. Glad I stuck around till the end. Had fun with them.

I just don't want to do healing so much in the future... rather be in the action of the fight. Eventually I will in the future.
