I made it to 25!
RDM! It is 25!!
IT IS DONE.
The magical update of joy has saved my life.
To be fair, while my adventures as a Red Mage were nothing short of nightmarish, that was largely my own fault. Unlike Ninja, on which soloing was better than enduring stupid parties full of useless people while trying to tank and failing spectacularly, Red Mage I soloed because I was .... well, lazy'd probably work.
I didn't want to level White Mage (though WHM happened, anyway) and Black Mage for subs, and I couldn't afford to buy the proper equipment I'd need to main heal with cure and cure II. I'm not a good mage, and I know this, so I refrained from inflicting myself on unsuspecting parties and, as a bonus, didn't come away with a reputation as That God-Awful RDM, Seriously, Don't Invite Her. Ever. So leveling took forever and I died a whole lot, because up until Monday, easy prey only gave... well, 25 or so experience, and when you need 4000+ exp to level... Yeah, it doesn't work. So you fight harder mobs and mages have no defense so... death. (Now getting 80 isn't uncommon. That still doesn't sound like much, but believe me, it adds up fast.)
AND NOW RDM IS DONE. YAAAY! THE TWO JOBS I HAVE HATED MORE THAN ANYTHING I AM NOW FINISHED WITH!
(Maybe someday when I have money and motivation, I'll attempt to take it to 37. But probably not.)
