A E I O U. My native language is Spanish so I understand what you mean. IaIto. Pronouced just as it is written. Thanks! Now I need to learn a third language... Let me see I am leaning towards Chinese because I already speak the international language English, Spanish is the second most spoken language in the world and if I learn Chinese I am bound to find someone to talk to.

Off topic.

I am also trying to learn a 2nd language (maybe 3rd since I speak some Dutch) - Portuguese because I love the beautiful country of Brazil. Its my vacation spot of choice and I kinda consider it as my 2nd home. A lot of Brazilians know some English so the language barrier isn't insurmountable but being somewhat fluent in Portuguese will help out a lot win I travel there.

I believe everyone should speak at least 2 languages due to the effects of globalization - the world is becoming one large economy.

Sprichts du auf Deutsch bitte?

I know a teeny tiny bit of german from when I took it in highschool, might take another class in college.

To continue this off topic escapade, I speak both English and Japanese. I can also speak Chinese to some degree. As for Spanish, I can say the all important 'My name is ___' and very little else. Can count to 100 though.

Thanks for the event. Had lots of fun defending the forest as a Forest Hunter with my LVL 40 thief. I was able to take down several farmers with help from my fellow covenant members and the forest mobs. We should definitely do this again!

Just wondering: Is there a reason why your thief was level 40, or was it just a character you had on hand?

Yup, just the character I had on hand. It was my only character that part of the forest covenant because I was going to get the "look skyward" gesture from Shiva. Turned out to be a much stronger build than expected, not to mention the low SL opens up numerous invasion possibilities as with the cracked eye.

Also, after having three invasion builds (120, 58, and 40) I am starting to believe that invading at lower levels is much more effective but then if you decide to go LVL1 Twink with BB that is a huge problem. So for now, 40-60 is prime invasion SL... or at least it seems for me.

A picture to sum up the event. ;D

lol, sweet corpse pile. I assume this is how Alvina keeps the hydra fed.

That, and all the people that ran out to fight the Hydra with a sword, only to fall to their death(We all know we at least tried this once).

Every time fought a hyrda i used a sword. Is there any other way?...unless you meant it literally when you said 'fall to their death'

I used a bow on both once actually. With the sword though you have to be pretty far away to attack the heads rather than the larger mass. The first time I fought with a sword (rather than run by and to the Rolly cats) I was doing well flanking and then suddenly got too close and "YOU DIED"

Sadly I had to do it again before I learned that there is a steep drop off.

What I meant was falling off the drop off in the water while trying to fight it with a sword or the like. Everyone falls down the drop off at least once.

I used a lightning Black Pharis bow to kill the black hydra, but I used a lightning spear to fully decapitate the first one.

Black bow +15 with feather arrows and hawk ring you can get the first one from the bridge. Did it to see if you could
