The Secret to Walking on Water

The Secret to Walking on Water
Two Days From Launch

Wildshard is a very versatile fellow. Obviously he can walk on solid ground, and can morph between a number of forms, from human, to fish, to bird. With the Underlight Angler, the form changes are instantaneous. Dive into the sea and Wild immediately morphs into a fish. Leap into the air and become a bird. That sort of thing.

What Wild is having trouble with is walking on water. With the Underlight Wild can literally walk on water. Well, sometimes. Wild hasn't quite mastered that elusive talent. What usually happens is that Wild propels through the water, leaping about randomly hoping he finds firm footing, but mostly sinking underwater. It's great entertainment to watch, but . . .

Eventually Wild will find that moment where he is successfully standing on top of the water. Oh, well, Wild is facing in the wrong direction. Hmmm. Wild can walk in that direction. Then he turns . . . Splash! Wild gets a dunking. Sigh. Unfortunately, it's no better with the raft, which tends to float or sink at whim. Wild swears there must be some secret method by which this can be done withought ingesting gallons of water.

Chaitee wanted to lament the status of the Auction House but watching Wild drown is a lot more entertaining. Actually, drowning is pretty close to the status of Chaitee's attempt to wring gold from sellers who have no idea how to properly play the AH.

Loose Ends  - Miscellanous items while wrapping up for the trip. Wild will get a vacation for as long as a month.

Aha!  Walking on water requires using the CTRL button to walk on the water without thrashing about. Now Wild knows.

Wildshard raised his overall gear score to i907. Wild also has only two more steps left to complete all artifacts on his Underlight Angler. But the AP required makes for a LOT of fishing.

Not sure when the next post will be, or where we will be. We are two days away from Launch!
