Congrats on your MQ! This is quite cool the way you are tracking your progression. The stronger your grow, the faster you'll kill/skill, the quicker the profits!! How exciting. Good luck with your adventure

Thank you very much, I really like the grinding and steady improvement and accumulation with this project.
Starting all over from scratch is quiet exciting, you actually get to enjoy even small improvements and small fg gains again and every climb feels exciting when you finish it.

Still dreading my first death, got a few close calls in the ~100 life region so it is bound to happen, but I will continue on if I die.

And I hardly gain any fg from muteables in sc climbs since they nearly all go to guildmates, so HC is more income unless I get a decent item drop in sc.

Great going, I like the way you set it all out.

I have some questions related to your rankings in weapons and 0 ranking in healing in regards to the Master Quests you have completed (pass/fail).

Are you leveling up while skilling instead of clearing monsters in catacombs? Note; this will explain why your weapon/heal/casting Ranks are so low for like 6 MQs (before reset) and 4 MQs after HC reset. Edited: Sorry, just realized you only had 6 Master Quests and I read it wrong.

I did 7 solo Bufcore climbs (MQs) in the last two seasons, however my weapon/healing ranks are far superior to yours:

iZZi

Rank: 7 Battle-Axe
Rank: 6 Spear
Rank: 6 Heal (Regular)
Rank: 3 Club
Rank: 3 Focus Heal
Rank: 1 Warhammer
Rank: 1 Pole-Arm
Rank: 1 Wild Heal
Rank: 1 Transmuting
_________

Have not used this character since the last 2 HC resets, which can be verified in the Bufcore thread.

Note: I am not arguing, I am not trying to say you are doing it wrong, I am ONLY INTERESTED in how skilling & gaining experience (levels) alter the procession of grinding in Catacombs.

Also, I am impressed with your dedication, something I admire in a gamer.

Yeah, it's total 6 MQ so far.
I never heal when meele and I skill in every regeneration break, always going full explore.

I did not keep track of this, but I belive there was some xp gained through higher skilling xp events, not that much but still a bit.
