Camping boring *** NMs for your trials? Currency sitting my *** in SSG with a beastin PLD with excal/aegis. I feel somewhat small next to him.
Anyway, I need entertainment during the window times. What do you guys do and can you suggest anything for me to do? :D

Ask them how they feel about Pld being useless pre and post abyssea. Should liven things up. Unless they have already come to terms with it.

Never camped NM for trials, but I often ended up standing around doing nothing in the game, like waiting on everyone to gather to enter Dynamis, or even PHs for a regular NM to repop..

I played something else, on my PS3.. Mostly Battlefield: Bad Company 2, I was always after the NMs no one ever worried about so I didn't have to pay much attention, just put my char on auto-attack and look over every now and then to make sure I'm not fixing to die. Other than that, I just played BF.. I got pretty good at juggling attacking a new PH and making shots (when playing as sniper) or deaths (when playing as a front line class). I learned to do both at the same time extremely efficiently.

Depending on my mood, I'll do any number of things while camping NMs:

- I listen to podcasts. My favorites are NPR's Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me! and the BBC's In Our Time.

- I love browsing news aggregate sites like Fark and Reddit.

- I sometimes kill time on Youtube.

- I'll read (actual books!) or play my bass.

- Or my favorite option: go AFK! (if I know the pop window isn't open)

- Play my guitar
- Chat with whoever is on msn

If I was a good girl, I'd do homework in between trials. But mostly I get distracted, watch TV, goof off on the forums, play with the puppy, water the plants. Anything BUT homework, honestly.

we should start a study group

we'll be able to lie to ourselves about doing homework and then do nothing of the sort twice as effectively!

well since we won't actually be DOING any homework i'm sure it'll be just as effective

yar that game kinda fun. I like how you actually have to figure in bullet drop and lead time while sniping in that game compared to a lot of other FPS. :)

I'm a deadly sniper.. I can nail your *** with a head shot while you're running perpendicular to me at 300m + away. A lot of people have trouble factoring in everything you have to factor in with long range sniper shots in that game, but it comes natural to me.

Lol.. I'm still waiting for Musketeer on FFXIV =/

But yeah, the reason I liked that as an avatar probably has a lot to do with the fact that FPS is by far my favorite genre when it comes to games.

What I find screwed up is I seem to get more headshots from long range than I ever do from close enough that I don't have to aim way up just to hit... <_< It's been a while since I played that one tho, my meh-ish skills are probably rusty by now.
