An Amoosing Way to Boost

Greetings Nephalem,

There are many ways to help your friends level in Sanctuary. You can run the story mode, do some rifts, even just hit up some bounties. My personal favourite way however is definitely Not the Cow Level. And by definitely Not the Cow Level I mean it definitely is the Cow Level! (The one that's Not the Cow Level)

To not get to the Cow Level, I mean, to get to the Not the Cow Level you are going to need a Bovine Bardiche. There's no trick to farming these, they can drop from any mob in sanctuary as long as you are level 31 or higher. Since you are planning on boosting a lucky friend or 3 I think its safe to assume the latter. Unless of course you are a boostee looking for a quick way for your high level buddy to prove his friendship too you!

The Bovine Bardiche is a two-handed pole-arm so some classes will see them far more often than others. Monks, Barbarians and Crusaders see them quite often from my own experience. Once you have acquired this item you simply need to stick it into Kanai's cube, hit transmute and your portal to Now the Cow Level should be open. The level of the Bovine Bardiche you transmute does not effect the Not the Cow Level in any way.

Now just jump in, slay cows, click shrines (Nemesis Bracers are great here) and don't forget to do the quest where you get 4 radiant chests for causing what can only be described as the total extinction of cow kind. The waves of cows give a bunch of exp as does the quest hand in itself. If your boostee friend has some experience gear crafted you should wait until he is high enough level to equip said gear before starting this quest.

Oh and remember: DON'T OPEN THE CHESTS. This is what makes this, in my opinion, the funnest method to get boosted. Leave those chests sitting there (I know its hard) until your friend reaches level 70. You will probably have to run one rift in addition to Not the Cow Level for your buddy to max out. How much you have to do will vary based on how much experience gear your buddy has equipped.

Now that your friend is 70 the two of you can return to Not the Cow Level, which is now named appropriately as Cows should be nowhere to be seen. Run around opening chests (or make your friend do it, they owe you!). Your buddy should now be fully levelled and fully equipped to begin his end game journey through Sanctuary, and if you are lucky the chests will have rewarded you too!

Oh Hi!

Hello there oh wonderful Internetz whom without I would probably be lost!

Some of you may ask where have I been, whereas the rest of you probably wouldn't! Well I've been here the whole time, and by here I mean the spot on which I'm sitting right now.

With the coming of summer I decided it was time to feed my slight video game addiction and have been hiding from reality for the last few months while exploring the virtual realms of the online gaming worlds! I had quit games and panic uninstalled everything around last September/October so I had an awful lot of catching up to do!

Now with college approaching ever closer it's time to reel things in a bit and try spend some of my time doing other things! One of which shall possibly maybe be this blog, something which I constantly stop doing but its stupidly hard to keep the thing going ^_^

College commences in a lil over 3 weeks and I'm looking foward to nabbing myself a good studio space and getting down to my old 12 hour schedule work day ^_^ I am however planning to have one or two evenings a week where I go home an hour or two early so I don't have as many wasted evenings where I am burnt out and uninterested in what I'm doing. We shall see how things play out though!

This year is the big feared thesis year which I plan to approach from the most laid back, relaxed perspective ever. I tend to crash and burn if I worry about things in the slightest so I find its best to have a super chilled attitude when it comes to written work!

I intended to write some random funny thoughts in this post but ended up chatting about boring stuff but I suppose that's a good way to get back into things!

I need to start drawing and painting again before I go back to college and have a lot of canvases to make up and boards I should probably cut to size, would be cool to have alot of surfaces just to get going on and see what kind of ideas I can get going.

Oh also I need to fix some stuff to upload on my DeviantArt. I'm not particularly proud of anything I've uploaded on it but I think its good that I can look at what I've uploaded and think that I can do better now.

It's time for the video game world to take a back-seat again and to get back on the road to trying to improve my drawing and painting. I also need to get on the road to cleaning my room but that can take a back-seat too =D

College Drawings

Just some drawings from the last week or two of college! Not much to type as I'm working on a rather well researched blog post for my community based practice blog on a distant hidden part of the internet but I hope to think of something fun and random to write about here tomorrow! ^_^

A Small Redesign

I have been thinking and I think it's time human beings had a bit of an overhaul as I find our current design is rather unpractical. Now I'm not quite sure what way we should be redesigned but I shall begin by listing out some of our design flaws and perhaps the solutions shall then follow!

Firstly I find it to be a rather large inconvenience that we require sleep in order to function. I'm not sure where our batteries are but I'm pretty sure a standard USB charger would be a far more reasonable way for us to recharge ourselves.

I can only speak for myself but with the exception of car journeys I am pretty much near a power source all day, 7 days a week. Whereas I am only ever near a bed for a few hours at night, with the exception of weekends which I spend sitting on my bed in my room (to make up for not being near one for the rest of the week!). Clearly from this small example the ability to recharge via electricity is far superior to the ability to recharge via sleep.

It is also possible to work and perform tasks while plugged in to the electricity. I have ran various tests with a charger attached to my shoe to prove this theory. Compare this to sleep and yet again we can see who is the clear winner. On many occasions I have drifted off to sleep while doing work only to wake up later and discover the work is, to my surprise, still unfinished! Now I don't know about you, but this has inconvenienced me on many an occasion.

Now I'll admit this solution isn't foolproof. In the event of prolonged power shortages humanity would run out of charge and death would occur and it is generally best to avoid such an occurrence. That's why I propose we take this new method and combine it with the old one, sleep become a secondary backup charging method!

That's actually all I can think of for now, my need for sleep is kicking in and I shall have to go get ready to recharge myself. If we ran on electricity I could keep typing this blog, the benefits just keep on piling up!!  When I wake up I shall be sending a copy of my CV to God to see if I can get a job in human engineering!

No cookies for reading this post but there is a few leftover horse-burgers I can give out to anyone who manges to read this! ^_^
Nighty Night Bloggers!!

Sense Is But An Option

Time for another update!

Only this time I'm trying something fun.

Mostly for my own amusement however!
So for anyone who isn't me this might seem quite boring.

Couldn't think of anything fun to write.
Other then this silly little game.
Rather this then another week without an update!
Now to keep on typing!
Each sentence is a little surprise.
Really though I'm just bullshitting!!

Ostriches would be a rather strange subject to write a paragraph on.
Failure to write a paragraph would lead to a lack of ostrich information.

Tiredness is becoming an issue at the moment.
Honestly think I'll go for a snooze soon!
Early enough too considering it's me!

Interesting sandwiches.
Nacho cheese.
Threatening canned-witches.
Eating peas!
Random dancing cow.
Noisy sheep.
Ending this now!
Time to sleep! ^_^

Back to the Drawing Board....

.... and that title is to be taken quite literally!

Regular sketching from now on with little uploads at least once a week! Or that's the plan and life usually get's too busy to stick to said plans but there's no harm in giving it another go!

I'm quite happy with how I've progressed since the start of summer in regards to my drawing and painting! I still have an awful lot to learn and do and have decided that one way or another I need to keep up sketching despite how busy I get with college, and I must say it does get quite busy sometimes!

I'm also quite keen to get my head around digital painting and painting with colours  I haven't quite got the eye for working with a varied pallet yet and it's something I need to work on! My drawing tablet has also drove me several different types of crazy over the holidays! I have a serious lack of control with it but am certain it's down to the settings I'm using, I had it sorted at the end of summer but for the life of me I can't remember what they were xD

Anyway just a small post to get things going again (hopefully!) and let's hope it lasts! ^_^

Clean-Up In Progress!

Currently in the progress of cleaning up this blog a bit! Been tagging stuff on and off all day and shall work on a bit of a revamp of the visual look of the blog and tweak the tabs a bit! Hoping to have it cleaned up for next weekend and then decide what it is I want to do with this blog as I would like to make it less random and give it some purpose!

In the meantime, I'll just leave this epic Stan Lee cameo here =D
