Hey there, Steel.
Allow me to start off by saying I completely understand where you are coming from. About a month ago, there was a period where I would log in, give Asgarn one look and think to myself "Not today, buddy.", followed by a swift log out and firing up a different game or (God forbid) doing something constructive with my time. At this point, my RoeRoe was in a half-complete set of AF2, could not for the life of me get a group capable of defeating Titan Extreme and was just generally in a bit of a rut. So, in short, I understand.
Given how much time I had put in to Asgarn, I decided I could not simply give up on him. So, I did the following things:
- I pushed myself, against better instinct, to continue with progressing him. It was torture, but the only way to get out of a rut is to press on.
- I re-opened Star Wars: The Old Republic for the first time in a years and a half. Splitting my time between two games made Asgarn seem like less of a commitment/chore.
- I made my Elezen crafter/Bard: Aumeric. Again, more characters to split time between made the feeling of "Ugh... Not you again" go away.
Now, Asgarn has a full set of AF2 (White Mage), has my love once more and still cannot find a group freaking capable of downing Titan Extreme! :V But that is not his, or my, fault. One day, ONE DAY TITAN SHALL FALL.
