A tale of Incompetence

So I started playing again for the first time in nearly a year. Today I decided to get some boxed TRs in, knocking out iconic/archetype lives. Its easy with 3 boxes. I was leveling up, taking feats at random, clicking through shit as fast as I could.

...when all of a sudden the fatespinner tells me I haven't got enough XP to take level 30. I had forgotten to hit the guild buffs before I started munching on stones. Turns out that left me just about 150k shy of 30.

On a character gimped all to buggery.
  
I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

Not that hard to get 150k even on a gimp.  Put up an LFM for Orchard slayer.  Probably take half an hour with a party of people who are more competent than you.

Since I was in the mood for a bit of dumb fun, I pulled up the vistani knife fighter and harper agent trees, maxed out vistanti, and stabbed shit until I got 150k. Took a while but I have no regrets. This is supposed to be a fun game after all.
