It's NOT Saturday?

.
.
I really thought it was.  So, I called to check on something.  Not.  Saturday.  I am totally exhausted, somewhat distorted, and definitely not with it.  I'm trying to keep up, catch up, do.  But... that isn't happening.  Even gaming is... limited.  Taking little objectives is... messy.  Old, tired, a bit cranky.  I am still finding things.

I did take care of... six items, new items, on my list.  Today.  I have, finally, found another item, or group of items.  However, I am not up to that list.  Not... yet, or today.  Two of the list items, from earlier, have me twitching.  Just... can't do it.

Now, I could continue around, looking for things.  Actually, there are two lists of lists.  The catacombs (though I need to find a list for the other three types of ruins), and the night's calavary (knight riders, which only appear at... night).  But, both of those will be more work than I am ready to dig into, at least by volume, the numbers, but very possibly by difficulty.

So?  So, I may begin a new 'toon.  The question, though, is which type?  Another form of magic, or a combat type.  Most likely combat, but strength or dex?  Are there other forms of direct combat?  Though, with dex, there is archery.  Which... I definitely prefer.  Learning from magic casters, I realize ranged is sometimes absolutely vital.  Strength doesn't really offer that.  But, what strength does offer is serious tanking (the ability to receive damage, and mitigate it).  The limits are that it is physical based.  These games are not simple.

I did find an advice video on the last boss.  What I didn't realize was that the damage it deals is mostly "holy"... just... another sort of magic.  But, that type of damage has a way to be mitigated, if it would require a respec.  Not sure about it though.  So many respec's already, to no real success.  Still, it's... under consideration, just... as with the list of things, not today.  And, actually, I would rather get the other lists of lists completed before respec'ing.  This, last, potential, respec would be a final, gimmicky, hail mary... not a good game playing build.  Which... is annoying, if required.

Well?  Either that, or on to bed?  No.  I want to try to push through.  I don't want to, I just... want to?  I mean, I don't feel like pushing through, but I wish to, want to, feel I should.  My body would love to crash, right now.  My will and, I believe God's will, is that I struggle on... try to reclaim the day.  And, so, it is that I will stay up.  But, I need to do something.  I don't have much capacity to do else, so... gaming.  A restart.  Or, at least, looking over what types of combat there are, and which I would prefer, if I think dex is probably the way.  Then, finding a build of which jig I might happily employ.  Innit?  It is.  Shush.  Later.

    When my wife and I retired a few years ago, our collective calendar sense was the first thing to go. To this day I still have to sit down and think before concluding what day it is. Don't worry about it.

  2. Ah, right, yes, that. And, the second thing to go is remembering what the first thing to go was! Seriously. Being retired has some benefits. Whether this is one of those is... another thing. Some days it is, sometimes it is not. Amen?

  3. I'd offer an amen. Other than remembering doctor appointments, I find little tragedy in forgetting what day it is.
