Of not getting a friggin' party. It's been well over a week since I've gotten a party with my DRK. Yes, I try to start my own parties. Usually I get a "No, thanks. <insertreasonhere>" or no response. Is it that no one wants a good DRK anymore?

Although it might not be accurate since I'm saying about myself, I see myself as an excellent DRK. I worked my *** off for my gear. Check the profile link below if you want to see it. It'd take a while to type it all out. I'm a great DRK that knows how to play his job. I'm sure some of you that I've partied with before on here can vouche for that.

Thank God I have Bard to fall back on when I get frustrated with no invites or I'd have gone crazy. But anyway, I know it was short. Post here if you'd like, I just feel a little better letting it all out.

I guess it helps to let off steam Smiley: grin because after writing this, I got an invite. I don't even care if the XP is slow.

My invites have been sincerely lacking since about lvl 42 as well....it is very frustrating. But alas, I keep playing for some damn reason, asking myself the same question everytime, "Why are you still playing this game you idiot? Turn it off and go play Halo II..."

I've been not playing for about two weeks now... and other than missing you guys, I haven't been happier... except when I finally got rid of my ex. ^.^

Its kinda relaxing not worrying about leveling up or trying to keep up with your friends before they leave you behind in their dust... perhaps a break might do you good as well?

Ahhh yes the competition issue will always get you with trying to keep up with in game friends and not getting left behind. I had a newborn baby so slam no playtime for about the first 2 weeks, bye bye 51 Rdm hello Beast Master LOL. Actually you know what I love it. Yet I am not one that MUST be a social player in partys. I love the fact that I can log on, lvl bst, log off and no lfg, no bad partys and if I die well its my fault. I get ALL the drops off the mobs no lotting, sell on AH for petty gil and I relax. Do my gardening, sold 5 fire ores last sunday so now over 600k gil to pour into my alchemy to get it closer to 100 then back to lvling. Its much more relaxing ^ ^.

I was level 66 for a month. And then I was level 69 for two weeks. Being a SMN is somewhat being like being the DRG of the mages: When it comes to an MP-based character, we're last pick.

But seriously, there will always be slumps in available EXP parties, especially in the level 50-60 range, when people want to quest for AF and get a lot of missions out of the way. Just do something to keep yourself occupied while you wait for an EXP party.

I always have somehting to do... level that painfully-slow-skillup-to-the-point-where-I'd-prostitute-myself-to-get-a-skillup summoning skill. =(

I put my DRK in the closet. I'm lvling WHM now.
It's nice to finally have to use the anon thing. I get more invites when my flag ISNT up as a WHM then I did in a whole month as a DRK with my flag up.

you have 2 options


play witht he JP at night. using JE o E as your PT preferance will not get you into a PT with the jpn.. i guarantee it
1/1000 chance



find a group of people at your level that play at the same time as you do, and everyday. not a lot of NA get level 50 forth and you will have a tremendously hard time getting a PT... it gets worse at 60.. and by 65 if you dont have at least 2-3 others you can play with every single day.. you are doomed.
