"INTRUDERS" Tuggug yelled just before.
"Draconian Breath"
"Frozen Orb"
"Chain Lightning"
The three fired off their AOE attacks and John's notifications went nuts.
As Vulxis breathed out black flames and John shot out lightning, Sarah's attack was a small blue orb of frost that once it hit the first enemy expanded encompassing a spherical area in ice.

"HOLY FUCK SO MANY NOTIFICATIONS." John yelled out in shock as they all covered part of his screen.
"GAH DAMN INTRUDERS KILL THEM" Gujjab roared as he tried to close the distance on them, but the ice prevented him and Hedgal from moving quickly.
"Why didn't you change it to party damage boss only mode?" Vulxis asked in surprise.
"What the hell is that?" John asked back as they all charged their next set of attacks.
"Lightning Bolt" Folwin said, shooting a lightning bolt at Ice Blue Queen.
"Rapid Fire" Tuggug said firing off five arrows at Ice Blue Queen.

"Say 'Switch notifications to party damage boss only mode'." Sarah instructed.
"Switch notifications to party damage boss only mode." John repeated
[Party boss damage only mode selected, you will only receive teammate damage feedback on bosses until you change this.]
"Sorry, I should have warned you about that, I forgot they basically taught you nothing in school, that's one of the first things they advise all new players to do, the number of notifications you receive otherwise can cause a migraine." Sarah apologized.
"That's fine but..." John was about to say but had to stop mid sentence because they had charged their spells and skills.

"But why are they only attacking you?" John asked as Sarah got attacked again and he charged a different spell this time.
"Lightning Javelin." Folwin stated
"Power Shot." Tuggug said after both charging their attacks.
"It's because I am doing the most damage, because of that they are targeting me, if we had a tank, they could use taunt to draw some of the aggro away from me."
"Draconian Breath"
"Frozen Orb"
"Healing Spirit."

"NOOOO DAMN YOU BASTARDS." Gujjab roared in anger as he slowly kept trying to close in on them.
"Wow look at that experience you weren't kidding." John said with a smile.
"Told you." Sarah said with a wink.
Vulxis started to charge at the boss as John and Sarah switched to single target spells and said.
"Lightning Bolt"
"Frost Bolt"
[Damage Dealt: 17 to Gujjab]
[MP: 370>>360]
As Vulxis finally reached Gujjab.

"I can't use any more skills as my mana is almost empty, also my base attack power is not strong enough to beat his endurance." Vulxis said as she backed off.
"We got this." Sarah said before

[Damage Dealt: 17 to Gujjab]

"Nice." Vulxis said with a smile.
"Good job on the first battle you two." Sarah said before turning to John.
"You never said you had a heal, though I should have expected that as you're a Druid, still it will come in handy."
After which she turned and headed for the enemy corpses to check the loot,
"Are you two ok with the roll system?"
"Yup." Vulxis said.
"How does that work?" John asked.
"There are two main loot distribution systems that parties can choose from." Sarah said as she stopped and looked at John while explaining.
"The first is the roll system we will use, when we check the body every party member will see what is available in that enemy's loot table, the rank of the enemy determines how much loot there is to dish out to the party and what rank they are."
"For each item you have the option to roll or pass, if you select roll you will compete against other party members who also selected roll and the highest number out of one hundred is the winner, if no one selected roll then it automatically rolls for a winner."
"If you select pass, you are declaring you're not interested in that item and so if there is a roll you are not part of it, however if everyone selects pass then like before a roll automatically happens and the highest score gets the item."
"Got it." John said with a nod.
"The other loot option is leaders' choice, this is normally what guild's use in higher level end dungeons, it basically means the party leader gets to determine who gets what loot." Sarah continued.
"Couldn't the party leader decide to keep everything for themselves?" John asked in an unsure tone.
"They could and trust me it happens a lot if they loot is really good, or there is a super top-quality item and the leader's greed gets the better of them, normally if that happens the leader will get a bad rep though and the party will fall apart." Sarah replied before adding.
"Only guilds like Natures Guardian's Followers, which you have apparently met, are made up of players who follow one person and are not affected by the leader keeping everything."
"I guess that's why all those members I defeated of that guild were so poor and had not got their second level skills yet." John stated.
"Most likely, while players get there first level skills free for there class, second level skills cost at least one gold each and that's only for the basic ones, it also increases in cost with each skill level increase, a player like Natures Guardian who does not like to share except with his closest people would not give his lower-level followers much." Sarah answered.
"Do people really just follow him because of his father's position in elf society?" John asked.
"Pretty much." Vulxis answered this time before continuing.
"Everyone wants to be better off, even the elves have different tears in which people live like the common, the wealthy, the powerful so on and so forth and its natural for people to want to move up, I expect most of the members of Natures Guardian's Followers think this is the best way to improve their lot in life, every race has many groups like that."
"Everyone seemed happy when I went out shopping with Alea to the city before, and the elves all seemed to love her." John said with a frown.
