They do say life begins at 40.
To celebrate Quijonn reaching the grand old age of life number 40, I thought I'd put a post up to mark the occasion.
Along the way, he has:
* ran maximum favour lives
* ran maximum Elite streak lives
* completed a Legend life in under 36 hours of quest time
* maxed out his crafting skills at 150/150/150
* capped out all ED's without grinding Rusty Blades a million times at 25
* only used the one XP stone we got with the MotU Collectors edition
* obtained Favored Soul with favour
* obtained Artificer class with House Cannith favour
* done a pure build of every class
* added some of the best and most fun players on the server to his Friend list
* added some of the most cluelessly argumentative and noob-tastic players on the server to his squelch list
* always been self-healing for the benefit of the whole party
* tracked down just about every creature possible for the Monster Manual
* made and spent countless millions of platinum with enough left over to have 4 characters currently sitting VIP plat capped
* had HP over 1600
* had no-fail saves over 100
* capped and TR'd with zero deaths
I'll be running his 40th life through every quest to max out favour and streak again. I'll also be double-checking the Monster Manual completion and revising the Quest Log that I compiled in preparation for taking the step from Completionist to Triple Completionist.
The details of the lives that I've done are in the code block below - I've modified the forum template that I see to be maximum screen width, and to not use yellow text on a white background, so this all looks fine to me:

A massive thanks to all of the good people that I've ran with. The difference between grinding a life and enjoying a life is 100% down to the people that you run with (and not being a Druid because they suck no matter what).
I can't say that I'll never TR him again, we'll see what the new Epic Reincarnation is all about first, but definitely no immediate plans apart to have fun with him as always.
