More raiding!

I have to say my favorite raid boss is the 3rd boss in the new Raid Dungeon, Drowned Halls. I first entered it a couple of days ago and cleared it right away. All 4 bosses. No screenshots though. The 3rd boss is just too much fun!

But enough of that. Time for more screenshots from Greenscale Blight! Oh yeah, we downed Lord Greenscale a week ago. That was awesome. First kill from our guild.

Earlier today, we did GSB (Greenscale Blight) again and downed 4 bosses. Wiped some on Duke, wiped some on Infiltrator... ONE SHOT Oracle and Prince! OH YEAH! Saviours, my guild, getting really awesome now. If only we'd stop healing the Warmaster boss in River of Souls... come guys! Pay attention! Oh yeah, my guild is found on the link to the right side. Saviours Guild.

Anyways, we only tried LGS (Lord Greenscale) twice. There was a server shutdown before we started him. Wiped once, then no time left for the second try (as you can see below). Here's some fun screenshots.

Rift Action

So quick update. Lots of Rift action happening during the week. I actually decided to raid which started 2 weeks ago(?) I forget. Doing Greenscale Blight and River of Souls.

Still in a progressing guild. Got Lord Greenscale down to 24%. But that's where the hard part begins. Anyways, this is just a quick little update.

If interested, my twitter is @yamiluceid Follow yamiLuceid on Twitter. I may post updates there more frequently about random boring things I do. Which includes RIFT and Monster Hunter, etc.? Whatever!

Out for now!

RIFT = Fun

So I haven't posted in months here. Not like anyone reads this anyway. My PC is awesome. Getting quite dusty now. I was gonna buy pressurized air canister then I reminded myself that I once found a $60 powered duster at Tigerdirect. So why not spend more and save in the long run? Yep, did that. I got it and it's super awesome. Super strong and super loud, like a vaccuum.

Anyways, I've been playing RIFT the past few months. Shortly after I assembled my PC. It's fun. Gonna be raiding soon.

Hopefully I can update this more often. Outie for now!

PC Status: UP and Stable

Motherboard delivered @ around 12:20PM while I was napping and as soon as I got it, I went to town with it! First PC ever built, hooked up everything, fired it up... ALL IS GOOD!

Work time, I'll update next post and mention all the parts.

Disappointment!

Update on the new PC.

So I've received 8/9 of the parts that I've ordered from newegg.ca. 3 separate deliveries, 3 separate locations. Got the first package containing the case and PSU, CPU and OS on Monday. Second package came in Tuesday containing GPU, HDD, RAM and free Shogun 2 game. Now I'm just missing the motherboard which is the most important part, because it's where everything is connected. It's like the body of the PC. It would've been awesome if the last part was like the OS or the ram, I mean... it could've been ANYTHING. ANYTHING AT ALL! But NO! It has to be the motherboard. So, it seems it's not coming at all until Monday. Yeah, that blows.

I was really hoping I could assemble it during my day off. But no. If it was like the PSU or whatever... except the case, I could've assembled some of them and just attached the missing part on Monday. Unfortunately, things just doesn't go the way you want them to be. I have to amuse myself with some other form of entertainment during this weekend. Friday is a holiday but I'm most likely working anyway.

I can't really gather all my thoughts because of how bummed out I feel right now. It sucks, but ya know. Just life. I'm thinking though, since I've waited THIS freakin long for all the parts. I am hoping that there will be no more disappointments once it gets here and everything turns out well. I don't know what I just typed right there but whatever, I hope it made sense. I need sleep.

I'll update again... soon. Hopefully something good.

Brand New PC! - First Custom Build PC

Just ordered PC parts to build myself a powerhouse a couple of days ago. Was just shipped this morning. I'm so excited! Never built a PC before but I've always wanted to. I hope everything turns out good. And nothing is DOA (dead on arival) because that would suck bad! And very frustrating!

I'll list my hardware when they all get here. Its not an over the top PC but definitely pretty good. Cost me a little less than $1200. My budget was $1000 and I reached it. Except when the taxes and shipping kicked in... BAM!

One thing to list, CPU is i7 2600K, and... might as well list the GPU: Sapphire Radeon 6870. I didn't get a SLI ready motherboard because I don't need to SLI. In the future, I'll just get another single GPU for upgrade... which hopefully won't be too soon. Hoping this lasts 2-5 years!

I'm out!!! ZzzzzZZZZzzz...

Laptop Reformat — Just like new...

"We owe you for that."
"Just like new..."
"Drop your weapon!"

Matrix... yeah anyway. Reformatted my HP Laptop and brought it back to factory settings. Had to delete crap from it again like before. That's also the last time I'm buying HP Laptop. I'll go Asus next time. Only reason I bought that is because I didn't have money to pay it in full so I used Best Buy X months to pay thinger-majigger.

If it's a laptop, Asus from Newegg, Tigerdirect, or NCIX. But I really want a power house custom PC for my next one. This laptop can play good games but the problem is overheating. Sucks.

Reason for reformatting is... I don't know. Paranoid that something is in my PC lurking around? I also bought Sandboxie to keep it clean. Hopefully I won't need to reformat for a few years.
