Thief's Acquisitiveness Hub Fixed!

My Thief's Acquisitiveness VUST hub for Dragon Quest IX has been fixed. I had incorrectly written Eye for Trouble's description. A follower of my hubs (and fellow DQ IX player I might add) called the dude kindly pointed out my mistake and I have now rectified. For those of you who haven't checked it out, it's at this

In other news I played 4 games of Starcraft II and went 1-3. Seems I'm just a tad rusty, eh? :P
I blame all of the DQIX playing I've been doing recently. XD

Anyways, there's not much else to say at this time. Keep having fun! ;)

Until the next time, take care and have fun!

Starcraft 2: Tips, Strategies, and Tricks from a Silver-Level Player

It's finally time for another videogame article! :D

I recently started playing Starcraft II again, but this time I'm playing in the ladder. This is probably the first RTS game I've ever played where I actually play against other players. I don't tend to be a player vs player type of guy. However, I have to say that the matchmaking system for Battle.net 2 is actually pretty good.

I enjoy being able to just connect, click a button and find an opponent within thirty seconds.

Anyways, the article I wrote up details several tips I have for newbies that are struggling to claw their way up the ladder, much like myself. ;)

In other news, I should have a new internet connection in a few days. It will allow me to connect via Wi-Fi, so I'll finally be able to access the DQVC in Dragon Quest IX for exclusive goodies. I'm already stoked. :D

Also, should I decide to resume playing it after a LONG hiatus, I could play versus other people in Pokémon HeartGold as well. (That link leads to my relevant article; I write a lot, what can I say? :P)

Anyways, that's about it from me for now. If you ever find a Winterfate in Starcraft II, it's probably me (unless someone decides to name themselves like me; one of the failings of a system that doesn't have unique name limiters).

Until the next time, take care and have fun! ;)

Legacy Boss Hunter - Baramos over at Hubpages!

Hello there, how have you been?

I wrote up this blog post to bring attention to one of my top articles over at HubPages. The article in question is for Dragon Quest IX (go figure, eh? :P), and deals with beating the Legacy Boss Baramos. Given that he'll probably be your first Legacy Boss (unless you use Tag Mode to acquire other Legacy Boss maps from other players), I consider that this article is a must-read if you want to get into the Legacy Boss killing mindset.

If you want to read it, feel free: The link is: http://hubpages.com/hub/Dragon-Quest-IX-Legacy-Boss-Hunter-Baramos

Also, here are some general tips that apply to most high-level boss runs:

• You NEED a healer. Don't argue this point. Just don't. Gamers tend to argue this with me until they get destroyed over the course of 2-3 turns by mass attacks. :P
• You'll probably need a tank as well. Unless you're doing the 3 Gladiators and 1 Priest party setup, which involves killing the boss before your party bites the dust, then you'll have to take things a bit slower. Paladins make the best tanks, but Warriors are adequate.
• Each character should have an Yggdrasil Leaf. There's nothing worse than losing your healer to a lucky boss critical and then having no one that can revive.

If you heed the above, you're on the path of victory. If you need any more help, feel free to hit me up either here or at one of my Dragon Quest IX articles.

Until the next time, take care and have fun! ;)

Dragon Quest IX: VUST - Armamentalist's Fource Hub at Hubpages.com!

As the title of this blog post states, I've released a new article over at hubpages.com. The ninth installment of my Vocation Unique Skill Tree series (or VUST, for short) talks all about the very interesting and unique physical attack buffing Armamentalist skill tree, called the Fource.

This is my 91st hub, and my 87th videogame hub, so I want to take a moment to thank everyone who has been reading my articles for all of this time. Your continued readership is much appreciated. :)

So, feel free to check out the article by clicking on any part of this sentence. :)

If you read my previous blog post, you're probably wondering why I wrote this one up first. Well, the truth of the matter is that it's easier. I can write about skill trees any day, but to write about a Legacy Boss, I prefer to have some hands-on experience, which means actually fighting him a few times to get some details I can work with. Murdaw, however, refuses to drop Dhoulmagus' Map. They must be in cahoots to stop me from talking about Dhoulmagus. But, I'll wrest the map from Murdaw's control one of these days. Once that day comes,  you can expect a blog post linking to that article as well. :)

Anyways, that's all from me for now. Take care and have fun! ;)
