.

I need to update more often so I don't forget what happens D:

December 1st: Dynamis San d'Oria. Got lots of AF2:


December 2nd: Sky farming, and I went to Orlando.

December 3rd: Was in Orlando.

December 4th: Got home at like 3am so I missed sea.

December 5th: Nothing that I can remember.

December 6th: Assault/missions/limbus. I can't remember if I was there/what we did/whatever lol

December 7th: Sky stuff maybe? My memory is horrible.

December 8th: Dynamis - Bastok. Owned the zone, but I had to leave early right after the win.

December 9th: Sky farming. I forget what all we got. After that we did 3 KS99's. 1 Loss because he was being a real bitch on stunning me while turning around and getting meteor off >< Drops were Behemoth Hide for Daodao, Behemoth Hide for myself, Damascene Cloth and Harlequin's Horn for Reko (wiped on his orb so we gave him those from my orb), and Behemoth's Tongue for Pauge (He's 1/3 now).

December 10th: Left early as hell in the morning for Orlando yet again.

December 11th: I got home near the end of sea farming and we killed a Jailer of Hope... for a leet Hope staff! -.- I'm never going to get one if soul doesn't get his first lawl.

December 12th: Nothing.

December 13th: Limbus. 3 coins each, THF Upgrade item, and the chip. Almost have 2 full Ultima sets now :D

December 14th: Sky night. Started off by killing Motherglobe, then moved onto Genbu, which dropped crap (w feet and g shield), then 2x Suzaku's which didn't drop great stuff either (I think 2x A Legs and maybe some sune-ates) and finally to byakko. RMT were up there killing him... grr. They traded faster than us the first time and it took them like 30 minutes to kill it. When the ??? re-popped we got it, netting us some Haidates and E. Feet.
Woot, all the headaches CCing RMT gave me finally pay off. So sexy. :D I forgot who got the e feet, no one bidded for them I don't think.

We were also supposed to do a Kirin but it was too late.

December 15th: Dynamis - Windurst. Tons of AF2, including Valor Leggings which I lost lot on and Koga Hatsuburi which I couldn't lot because I was lotting Valor Leggings >< We got like 3 BLMs, 3 SMNs, 4 SAMs, and a bunch of others. A lot of it went freelot. Also, everyone laugh at Wakmidget because he's been wanting Summoner's Spats for a while and we got 3, 1 of which went freelot.
kekeke.

During the passed 2 weeks or so I've been meritting a bit. I'm up to 101 total merits (woot, broke 100!), and 2/5 STR merits (4/9 until 3/5).

I've also been leveling Dark Knight. It's up to 31 now. I've completely stopped using a Scythe, Great Axe is so much better. Nothing like popping out 250-300 damage Souleatered Sturmwinds ;)

Much needed update.

It's been a while ^^ Been super busy working on plans to move to Orlando and start attending college there, as well as general real life activities.

Trying to remember things I did as best as possible.

15th - Limbus. Apollyon I think, dunno.

16th - TP Burned Kirin. Took a lot longer because he uses sleepga a lot, 15 minutes total after minis were killed. Grats to Pauge on his long awaited and much deserved Osode! Also grats to Zylia on her also long awaited (not nearly as Pauge though) N. Body! Also killed a Byakko. No kitty pants =( N. Feet? I think dropped though and went to Nomar. Grats son.

17th - Dynamis Jeuno. Owned it hard, lots of WHM dropped, can't remember what all else though.

18th - Sky farming? Not Ullikummi so I don't recall :O

19th - Omega! Got the pants I've been wanting forever!!
Woot! 2/5 on the set now, and the only other piece that I really desire is the hands, and I'm passing those until no one really wants them since I kinda loot whored limbus lately lol

20th - Sea farming. A crapload of HQ Aern Organs. 2 Ix'MNKs. 2 Deeds (or vices... or whatever... the pop items).

21st - Noooooooothing. Just like the goggles.

22nd - Limbus, Temenos, nothing for me, grats to whoever got what.

23rd - Thanksgiving break =^-^=

24th - Dynamis Glacier. No AF. At all. -.-

25th - Sky farming, I missed it. Thanks RL! :D

26th - Limbus. Temenos. Again nothing that I remember really.

27th - Sea. Fortitude. Virtue/deed/whatever it's called. Tried to pop Temperance but it was being a douchenozzle (<- new favorite word)

28th - Nothing.

29th - Finally finished the ToAU Mission we've been stuck on. Was really easy. Tried to do 1 Assault but the main person used DCed so we wiped and failed. After we did some Limbus. Snowy Cermet finally dropped! Nightsbane got it though (beat me by 3 points, 104 > 101 lol). Oh well I should be next in line for it and then hurray Gallant Leggings +1 :O Pimping my pld out 1 piece at a time I guess.

30th - Aeron, Reko, Rorion, and myself killed Faust this morning using the teleport glitch thing. It felt cheap, but was pretty fun. Turned Faust into a joke. Meritted with Hailie, Wak, Neophytal, and some other peoples to get merit 95. 2 more until STR level 2. During the night we pillaged sky. First we killed 2 Suzakus netting us 2 Suzaku Sune-Ates (Myself and Jediknight), 1 A. Legs (Jimibean), and maybe something else. After that we owned Kirin. TP Burn again, not sure of the time but it got kind of rough when some people died. Still working out the kinks in this strategy. Drops were Osode, Shining Cloth, and another pair of w legs! Grats to Soul on his Osode, Gunblade on his nobles tunic, and myself on these bad boys:
Woot =D Whiteboxed 12% movement speed okgo! Also camped fafnir after, but perseverance (boticles) claimed it.

No flashy title here.

Throughout this last week I've been leveling my emoknight. It's up to 28 now. DRK/DRG owns 20-30 btw, do it. Jump ftw.

Tuesday I didn't do much at all.

Wednesday I fell asleep and missed ToAU stuff and limbus -.-

Thursday we killed Kirin. We did this TP burn thing. We kinda were scared what happened last time would happen this time, so we kited it until all the adds were killed. So.. we TP burned it in less than 5 minutes :D I died in the first 20 seconds due to 2 Great Whirlwinds (one for 1200's, one for 900's) and remained dead pretty much the entire fight. But wow that was fun. Drops sucked though, Shining Cloth and O. Ingot. -.- no r/e stuff. He needs to quit jipping us D:

Friday we did some Dynamis - Windurst. I forgot who got what, but we got something like Koga Hatsuburi, 3 Clerics Feet, and the Assassin's Hat. We raped the zone pretty hard. Those Yagudo had no chance to survive, they sure did make their time though D:

Saturday we camped Fafnir but missed claim, then went to sky... and got Ullikummi finally :D RMT actually claimed it, but one of their people died and it went yellow. I have absolutely no remorse for RMT so I voked that the very second I could. Finally getting Ulli made me so happy. We also got a MG and that was the day. We might've camped KB as well, it popped one of those days, but Element got it.

Sunday we did Limbus, got a leet 4 coins which I sold last night.

Yesterday was maintenance, so we logged at DA. Fafnir popped within like 15 minutes of me signing on, and Kaizen got it. Then we headed out to Valley of Sorrows to try to kill a turtle. Perseverance got it though (was only NQ so who really cares lawl). We didn't do sea because it was really late.

Also, this joke of a person Rormant decided to talk some shit about CK last night on QCDN. You can see it here. My waffles were rofled.

Today we went out to DA, Nidhogg popped first window. Chronicles from Perseverance claimed it lawl. Click the link above and read the whole thread to explain the lawl part. They also claimed Aspidochelone (both HQs popped first window..) I wonder how long till we get another claim on something cool.

After DRK to 37 I think I'm going to level WAR to 75. I want to start collecting Rare/EX Pieces now (Wishlist: Patroclus's Helm, Voyager Sallet, Acha d'Armas, Tungi, Peacock Amulet) and take it slow. On Ninja the last 20 levels went by so quickly I barely had the time to enjoy them. Most of my gear from Ninja carries over so that's a plus too. I'd have to buy a couple expensive items, but I think it'll be worth it. I'd like to level into Haidate so hopefully I get those soon. Not having them on Ninja isn't a huge deal because I have Koga Hakama to make up for it, but besides Haidate and those new ghetto-haidate, Warrior really has nothing to wear. Thick would be the best TPing choice I suppose. The difference between a handful of accuracy and attack and a huge amount of DEX and Haste is immense I'd assume.

Updataru.

So Saturday I meritted a little when I woke up, getting STR level 1. Then we went to sky. Tried to get some Ulli, but fuggin RMT got it -.- Soul left while we were camping Ulli, so I basically led sky after that. We got Motherglobe, and we were going to get Faust but another Linkshell got it while we were killing Faust. We tried to Scan for Zip but it wasn't up so we headed out. After that we went to the Aery. Nidhogg popped and Perseverance got it =( We seriously need to get some claims. After that I headed out, but CK did a DM run and got some people their earrings.

Yesterday we camped Fafnir, but Element (The new Purpose) got it. I thought they were going to wipe though because it was killing people left and right, moving all around, and they even flailed it once. They ended up killing it though with about 5 minutes left until Hyper. After that we did an Omega Limbus run. Got Homam Corazza and 2 Homam Gambieras. Grats to Moriarti his pimp new body piece, and Daodao and myself on the Feet. These will be great for pld/nin, kiting, and lolDDing. Puts my pld/nin haste total up to 15%, the same as my ninja's -.- Haidates where? D: After that me and soul got a few WS points (I still didn't have Blade: lolKu) but it was late and we logged out.

This morning me and soul both finished up our WS points (He was working on his scythe) and headed out to kill the NMs. We ended up killing 3 of them. 1 for Soul's Spiral Hell, 1 for my Ku, and 1 for Heilger's Evisceration. I also found a guy selling a shitload of coins when we were in Temple of Uggalepih. I bought 38 for 40k each. So after we finished up the WSNMs I went to Port Jeuno and got my much needed Brutal Earring. This pretty much completes my Ninja's DD setup, the only things I'm missing are basically HQ pieces and multi-million pieces. I'll get them someday.

So we headed to the Aery. Fafnir popped second to last window and we finally claimed it! Was a pretty rough fight, he used Hurricane Wing a lot, but we killed it in a little over 30 minutes! Drops:

And I got this: ^^

I find it funny that linkshells like HNMPT call us garbage, but we kill it in 1/2 the time they do and we don't pull asshole moves like calling for help. Whatever though, they're just angry they have more competition now.

After that we headed out to Sea. We tried to pop Ix'DRG but it didn't pop and we called it a night. I got some buffer on my pld, bringing me to 4.2k until capped exp o_o capped exp on pld would be... amazing to say the least. Anyways, I'm out.

Rah!

So Rukkia's apparently definately never coming back... and he gave me his account :O

So now I pimped my ninja out pretty good, and most of my monetary concerns are gone. Hurray ;D

Tonight we did Dynamis - Xarcabard. Killed DL again (37 people, no deaths again) for another mantle (grats Shaq) and L. Jadeshell (dunno who got it). Also before we got there we got Sorcerer's Petasos (grats Xtereem) during the NM stage. When we moved to the Eye Wall we got Saotome Kabuto (Grats Bahamnut) and the Cleric's Mitts (Grats Hailie) the very next kill. Within a couple more kills we got another Cleric's Mitts (Grats Bajaratt). Insanity :O

I need to merit soon D: Sky farming tomorrow!

I'm out.

Update okgo!

Saturday we camped Ullikummi, but got nothing. We need more Byakko =( After that we headed out and slaughtered Bahamut v1. It really was a joke. I went pld/nin to it and didn't lose hate except once to the nin/drk, getting it back shortly after. Also didn't die unlike 80% of the alliance on gigaflare. Really, I want to know what people's obsession with nin is. I can't recall any time when I was out tanked by one. And if I'm subbing nin I take less damage.

Sunday I did some Limbus (I quit my old shell so I can go 2x a week and still do dynamis) and got some decent coins. Monday we killed Ix'MNK for no drops and Jailer of Temperance which I think dropped the Axe and Virtue.

Tuesday did 3 Assaults and finally got a chivalrous chain. I'm only a few months late =(

Yesterday we camped Fafnir, but Kaizen got it. After that we did some Limbus with 5 people (SE run), didn't win but we got 3 coins each (3 people got 4, we /randomed) and Enz got his other material for pld AF+1. I really need a Snowy Cermet. After that me and Enz tried to duo my Retribution NM. First time we got it to around 35%, but the second time we got it to 3% ; ; so close, and for duo that was really good. D=

Today I finished off that NM with Firebrand and Daineko. Right now I'm on the Airship to complete the quest. We camped Fafnir today and it popped last window. The new HNMPT claimed it and fought it for about 45-50 minutes until they did this:



LOL a giant shit talking fest commenced. Was really funny. Have fun, folks lol

This week...

Monday we had a very successful sea raid. Killed an Ix'MNK to get Aeron his Merciful Cape. After that we popped a Faith (H2H's only) and owned it in about 10 minutes. Then after that we popped 2 Hopes (First Tier 2's we've done) and just completely owned them. They were easier than Tier 1's by a bit. Only dropped one Virtue and two Staves though. Also we got quite a few grah chips and HQ Aern organs just killing stuff.

Tuesday did some ToAU missions, limbus (2 coins onry), more ToAU missions, and 3 assault wins in a row. 2 Lebros wins from my chivalrous chain ; ;

Wednesday nothing happened.

Yesterday was quite a day. We went after Jormungand again. Fight went really really smooth. We hit a rough spot once where hate was reset and we slept it for a good few minutes without it moving an inch due to coordination of stun+ES Sleep. Was really impressive to see. I finally got to co-tank as pld/nin with a nin/drk. Honestly, I'm not impressed. They're supposed to be hate machines, but I'd say I tanked about 75% of the entire fight. Now maybe it was because our nin/drk didn't have the best gear available, or maybe he just wasn't really experienced with the combo. I also got to test out my magic damage reduction set. It has -21% magic damage reduction and +30 ice resist. I macroed into this set when jorm would fly, significantly reducing damage. Average damage throughout the fight was around 200 flying. Much better than normal. Roar was a bitch, but I got hate back pretty easily with flash+sentinel+rampart+shield bash. If that didn't get it back a few flashes would. Was pretty annoying trying to get RR back up because I forgot pld can use gorget and I have walahra turban macroed into almost all my macros so I couldn't use my flash or utsusemi macros if I wanted to put up RR. As for the actual fight, we would've won if we didn't have an accidental CFH at 11% ; ; These things happen though and I guess we have to deal with it. Still sucks and I think Dao said it best with his "I'm going to fapfapfapfapfap and right as I'm about to spooge slam the toilet lid on my dick. That'll remind me of jorgy fight"<-LOL. But, we should be back to kill him soon. I would've liked to see him die and I know we have the capacity to easily do that.

Tonight I had Dynamis - Beaucedine. We got the Dagger Attestation (Grats Cipriani), Sword Attestation (Grats Sirivalin), Shield Attestation (Grats Agris), and Valor Breeches [(Grats Masashiro again :p) Seems like everything that I would've had a chance at in PinCKs is dropping now, oh well just means less competition in the future =D]. We also went for the win, so we killed 2 Attestation mobs and still got the win. Awesomesauce.

Small update

Editted a few things like gear/merits to the right. Kaizen got Fafnir today. After that I did the PCC BCNM40, netting us... an erase scroll. I hate this bcnm. After that I farmed a little bit, but didn't really do much.

Here's a video of the Dynamis Lord fight:


Also a picture of the title ^^

Biiiiiiiig Update

So before I get this started, I've been pretty busy with real life these past few weeks, and have been sick the past few days.

Okay so that friday's limbus we did a Temenos run, netting me the plaited cord, so I got nin tekko+1. woot.

I did real life stuff all last saturday and sunday :\ Apparently my Dynamis shell PinCKs broke though =( I applied to limitless and got accepted.

For sea I don't think I was there.

Tuesday Limbus we did another temenos, but only a few coins each and no pld material XD After that we finished up the PFC assaults to get the other static people to SP. Nifty.

Wednesday I don't think I played lol

Thursday I was busy doing RL stuff, but I think we got fafnir claim.

Friday I did my first dynamis with Limitless. It was amazing. They do things much different than PinCKs did. Much more efficient. We got to DL with 1 1/2 hours remaining or so. No AF2 drops at all on the way though =( However, we killed DL :D w00t first kill for me. Dynamis - Xarcabard Interloper ^^ Shadow Mantle and L. Jadeshell dropped. Grats to Masataru (masashiro) on the drop. After that we went after the Animated Tachi. On the way we got a pair of Koga Tekko (grats hailie), and in total got 3 or 4 hundred coins. We got the tachi down to 8% before it warped =( We'll keel it next time though :D This LS is really amazing, and I'm proud to be a new member.

Yesterday we camped nidhogg, but perseverance got it, then over to KB which integralis got (and D. Ring dropped I hear ><). After that we tried our luck at fighting Ouryu. We gave up at 68%. Hate was rocky from the start when he terrored the entire tank party and no one cured me or rsouljah (both on ninja) and we died. I think we also had a problem with the adds, but I was more focused on not getting owned. I'm sure we'll kill it soon.

Today we're camping Fafnir. After that I'll probably just be lazy all day >.>

Later.

Big update.

Tuesday did Limbus and got like 2 coins, then did Assault after (PSCs to get wins for new members Jediknight and Rimare). I think I leveled drk too.

Antares also popped AV, so I went out to sea and watched. Also poked him once to see how long I lived. Screens:








Wednesday ummm I didn't do much, think I leveled drk, dynamis was cancelled again -.- but I was out anyways.

Thursday we did Kirin. We tried to meleeburn it, but we popped it without preparing properly, and did really bad getting it to only 99%. We then went to the normal kite and kill method, but it seemed to go down extra fast, I dunno what it was. I was on ninja and was able to hold a lot of hate kiting, more than the plds which suprised me. I'm going nin from now on to him because I can hold that much hate, and don't have to worry about being bound which is usually what gets me. Stonega 4 one shots me easy though, that's the only problem =( I can survive 1 attack from anything on pld, it's when he does 2 moves in a row that kills me.

Anyways drops were finally fucking w. legs which ended our 0/infinity streak. Nogard got them grats to him, but I really would've liked to see them go to a pld >< Oh well I should be next in line for them now which won't be a problem if they actually drop again in the next year >.>;

Today we camped behemoth and got a behemoth hide. Right now I'm doing a few assaults (ilusi atoll or w/e) for some extra points, and later tonight I have Limbus. I think we're doing Ultima. I'll edit when we do it, just wanted to finally update lolz

Stuff

Saturday camped Ulli for a few hours before heading to Aery (no pop on ulli :\). Missed claim on Fafnir again. I think Integralis got it or someone like that. Oh well. After that I went to sea to watch Kaizen fight Jailer of Love (looked like an awesome fight), then headed out for the night.

Yesterday Nidhogg popped near last window. Kaizenget. They took it down fast though. After that went to Dynamis Beaucediene(sp). Tried to get win, but only 28 people showed up =\ We were really close. 5 more minutes and we would've had it even with those low numbers.

Oh also popped another merit I picked up sometime into Chivalry putting the recast down to 17:30. It's hot shit :D

Update.

No one from our LS showed up to Fafnir =( Pers got it.

Meritted a little, got up to 79 merits. I think I'm gunna go for the capped Chivalry next.

Did SE Apollyon for Limbus, getting away with 7 coins and a White Rivet. Just need Temenos NIN and PLD items now for upgrades :O During Limbus, Behemoth popped but RMT got it =(

Also did an Ilrusi Atoll Assault for Rimare's win.

That's aboot it.

Update!

Tuesday Perseverance got Fafnir, we did Temenos getting 3 coins each and some loldrg material.

Wednesday Nidhogg popped, HNMPT got it but had to team up with Purpose cause I guess they suck :\ M. Body dropped too. Dynamis cancelled again -.- dunno wtf is up with this.

Today we camped Fafnir, but Kaizen got it. After that we headed to sky to slay some minis. Dealt some revenge to that damn Tiger but got crap drops (Byakko's Axe -> Briddy, I think N. Hands -> Rigelus, not sure), Genbu (M. Hands onry I think -> Freedrop), Suzaku (S. Cloth and I think that was it -> Gilsplit), and 3x Seiryu's (M. Head -> Aeron, Truegrave, Fizzywig, Seiryu's Kote -> Me :D, Seiryu's Sword -> I dunno, D. Head -> Pauge, W. Hands -> Someone)

After sky we went to Behemoth to catch it during the last window, but Purpose got it.

Tomolo more camping and Limbus :O

Meritted sometime in there for a few thousand (damn overcrowding) and put a merit into Chivalry. On first inspection, it fucking owns. Recast sucks though, going to definately full merit it.

Stuffs.

Saturday we farned a bit and popped a Byakko with no wind and very few mages. Embarrassingly we wiped and lost the pop sets, but now we know not to tempt fate like that =P

Sunday Dynamis was cancelled, dunno why we had 30+ people for lolJeuno.

Yesterday instead of Sea we camped Fafnir, but Purpose got it :\

Today more Faf camping (hopefully early pop + claim) and Limbus. Woo.

Sea, Limbus, Byakko, MERITS!, more limbus!

I forgot what we did in sea, I slept till 10, and ran around for an hour fighting no NMs. Awesome.

Got 3 coins and that's about it in Limbus (3 Kings version)

Didn't have enough tanks for Kirin, so we killed Byakko and nabbed some more farming items including a Ulli. I'm officially #2 on the list for Haidates now ; ; soon I will have my precious! Grats Nomar on N. Hands and Jediknight on Haidates.

Exped like crazy today, Getting Merit #74. I actually did 3 parties today. One as pld/nin DDing in sky with my LS and a pickup whm (lolz, I actually didn't do too bad) to get my buffer to the highest it's ever been by far (beating old record by 12k) at 36,707 total exp. Wow :O lol. Second party was also mostly LS, but I went on my NIN. 3rd party I borrowed a lot of gear from Mistra and Daodao (2 snipers, hauby, amemet +1 from dao, unji, bomb core, dusk gloves from mistra) and exped with Jamal, Moraine, Crosis, Giaganta and Rsouljah. These people are insane. Jamal is one of the best war's on the server, and Crosis is probably the best bard on the server and the gear to match (HQ Manteel omgz lol). We were getting absurd exp/hour until some rude JPs starting CCing us and refusing to leave, gimping our exp by a lot. I was so damn pissed, I finally got into a really good party, and these inconsiderate asswipes fuck it up. Oh well, I capped my shield, but also had to put Evasion down to 0. Wait, I don't care about Evasion =P Shield skill now 306 in HNM gear.

Did proto-omega, dropped homam feet (grats johnnyb) and head (umm I think janelly got it? Grats) and a few coins.

-Eulore

Major Update.

Been Slacking the passed few days. Thursday we did some misc. sky farming and killed 1 Genbu and 2 Suzaku. Grats to everyone for whatever drops you got XD I forgot.

Friday did some limbus, just a normal run, and got 4 ancient beastcoins.

Saturday we fought hydra! Exciting fight, but it all went downhill when me and soul died at the same time (on both attempts, got it to 8% first time, 5% second time), it was spamming too much TP, which ended up killing us. Here's some pictures:





Sunday I slept through dynamis - qufim =( I hear bard af2 -1 dropped, and something else.

I've made a few changes to my Paladin gear. Mostly dropping the Koenig Handschuhs and Forest Sash for Valor Gauntlets and Warwolf Belt. This gives me +6 extra enmity with only a loss of 34 HP and 10 CHR (I don't intimidate enough to really make it worth it I don't think)

Here's some pics of gears:
My NIN's HNM Gearset:


PLD/WAR General tanking gearset:


PLD/NIN (For Wyrms and the harder HNMs):


PLD/WAR Kiting gearset:


-Eulore

Dynamis - Windurst

Just a short update here. 2x Cleric's Duckbills (Grats Alexxia and Myrril), 1x Warrior's Mask (Grats Kenjiro), and 1x Summoner's Spats (Grats Seresa). Still no Valor Leggings ; ; I really want them for kiting, and if I did get them I'd have 4/5 AF2 and look sexy :D

We probably won't do windy for a while now, oh well though.

-Eulore

Sea Mostly.

Farmed Sea yesterday. Killed Jailer of Temperance and got Temperance Torque (grats Kinkkerbelle), First Virtue, and Temperance Axe (grats Naotakun for having it auto-drop to you lol). Yay, full drops!

Then we popped 2 Ix'Mnks, and got 1 deed. Not a bad night in Sea, especially from what I hear about the drop rates we're insanely lucky.

Today we camped Behemoth, but Integralis got it. Just NQ. I hear they got multiple hides, bling bling XD

Apparently we do Limbus at 8pm EST on Tuesdays unlike 10pm on Fridays, so I missed out on that. I've been insanely poor lately, so I sold 3 Ancient Beastcoins for 55k each just to get some pocket change. I really need to hang onto the coins though. I want the following ancient beastcoin purchases: Brutal Earring, Boxer's Mantle, Ninja Tekko, Chainmail, and Kyahan +1, and Gallant Leggings +1. So I need 230 total Ancient Beastcoins. Wow, that sucks lol... Oh well once I get those I'll be pimped out =) I think the order I'll do them in is Brutal Earring -> Gallant Leggings +1 -> Ninja Tekko +1 -> Ninja Chainmail +1 -> Ninja Kyahan +1 -> Boxer's Mantle (I only really want this for soloing/actually tanking)

-Eulore

Sky farming, Dynamis... -.-

Farmed sky a bit on Saturday. Got Faust and Zip and I think that was it. Main focus was Ulli and he didn't pop until near the end of farming and we lost claim =(

Ran through Dynamis - Xarcabard. Got a Melee Crown (Grats Fliptout) before we even went to the NM stage, and the only AF2 that dropped at all on the NM stage was Wyrm Armet that went free lot again. We're going to all have these things for our mannequins soon =\ Tried to kill Dynamis Lord. Stun Rotation got fucked up again. I'm sick of this shit, how hard is it to spam the enter key, seriously... Got it to 75% before wipe.

-Eulore

Limbus.

Killed Omega in less than two minutes. Some drama that I didn't get to see it because my computer crashed right as we killed it. Dropped Homam Hands and Head. Dunno who got them, but grats.

-Eulore

Jormungand

Fought Jormungand tonight. First time hate was really messed up and we restarted only getting it to 98%. Second time we re-tried we got it to like 79%, again not too good. Then we regrouped and went for a third try. That time things went much smoother, with only 1 death (me, it was on me for the majority of the time, pld/nin is insane for hate building) until 52%. This is when things turned sour. Me and Rsouljah died within 30 seconds and Nyyankee didn't have very much hate. From there we tried to recover, but we just couldn't. We ES Slept it until it built resistance, tanks got unweakened, but nothing we did could recover us. =( Oh well this is better than the last attempt which was 73%, so I'm very proud of us. Here's the Pictures :)







We'll take this guy out soon enough.

I made a short video of the second attempt:

I'm gunna run out of update titles soon...

Got this done today :D

Not much else happened. I went to sleep before dynamis and am about to go back to sleep. G'night.

EXP, Assaults, and CoP

My friend Darklion set up a party with a few other friends and 2 pickup people. When I told Rsoul to come be my exp slave he sent me this:

Yup we're elitist like that lol ; ;

Sadly we had to go early because Fafnir was riding spinnaz in the Aery (was moving all around and twirling according to soul's mule and Ana) and we were hoping for a chance to get it in case of wipe. HNMPT had initial claim but they wiped because they also claimed darters. Kaizen got it from there but from what I heard JDAgralis was trying to MPK. Anyways hate was apparently really iffy but they got it under control and killed it shortly after we got there.

After that we went to try to pop Vivian but no luck so we headed out.

I pretty much didn't do anything until Assault that night. We only did one because I still had CoP to finish. 880 (I had the band) doing trolls in Lebros. 1/2 way to my chivalrous chain.

Onto CoP-land. We killed the pots from 8-4 with relative ease with the help of soul and then moved onto Promathia. We killed the first form easy enough but the second form wiped us at about 35% due to AoEs and lack of refresh. So soul came back on his rdm and we owned it so easy. Deathless fight and only took us 13 minutes. Was a fun fight but I forgot to take pictures ; ;

Today I get my Sattva Ring though, yay :D

Dynamis - ????? Tonight, hopefully Windurst and we get some Valor, that'd put me at 4/5 @.@;; But probably San d'Oria or something.

Sea..

The new HNMPT got Faf today and Kurei wasn't even there lol.. It took them almost 50 minutes to kill it, they didn't have a bard for like 30 minutes and they couldn't get it below 75% in that time. Oh well.

Sea tonight. If you don't know, sea fucking sucks. Seriously, I'd rather pull my own teeth out than farm sometimes. I seriously hate the place.

We killed the PHs for Ix'DRG and it popped after a few hours. So we rest up MP........ and it depops....

AHIGASDG(*@#&(%^(@!WJHGE(IHWAIHT($UYGMOTHERFUCKERINGCOCKSUCKER

Took us a few more rounds of killing and it repopped thankfully, dropping the Deed. Now we have a full Tier 2 pop set.

Dalmatica

Seems Nao got his Dalmatica uncursed, this is what he looks like:

What a pimp.

Only other news is my Chocobo grew up, but it's not black so I'm probably gunna reroll it (I want a Black Drestier or whatever those armored chocobos are =P)

Not much

Camped Fafnir today but didn't pop before we had to do Dynamis but I heard Perseverance got it.

Did Dynamis - Beaucedine tonight, just a farming run. 1 AF onry (Drk, grats to whoever got it), but we got Nao this:



Yay for killshot, lol... Grats nao on Attestation you spoony bard :O

Also on the way to Fafnir, Vivian was up. Killed, no drop. I wasn't there but I still got the title from being in alliance so there goes my Nidhogg Slayer title =( And I'll be damned if I'm going to Selbina just to change it lol...

Nidhogg Slayers!

Okay so yesterday we camped Fafnir but missed claim to Kaizen. Today however we claimed Nidhogg (Missed sky farming but who cares), it was a pretty rough fight but we killed it with no tank deaths and a few mage deaths. Me and Rsouljah were tanking on Ninja with Moriarti backing us up. Terror was a bitch as was wing, and one time I dropped to 19 HP but our mages were on top of things. We also haven't foughten a single Nidhogg or Fafnir so this is a huge accomplishment. Drops of importance: Martial Abjuration: Body (Special Congratulations to my twin Enz!) and Aquarian Abjuration: Body (Congratulations to Naotakun) Here's some pics:

Not very busy...

Wednesday did some Assaults and Dynamis was cancelled.

Last night did 2 Kirins. Didn't live as long as I did last time (Kited 100% -> 19% before dying), but this time I was actually in the Alliance when it died the second time. It's been a while since I had that title.

Drops from the first were Kirin's Pole, N. Body (Grats Genjuro), and O. Ingot. Drops from second were Shining Cloth and D. Body (Grats Daodao). Dicked over on drops again, awesome.

I straight tanked him starting at 5%. I was almost sure I was going to die, I took a lot of damage very quickly but we ended up killing it. It died very fast during that last 5%. I want to eventually be able to straight tank it in installments (say 10% then kite for 5% and repeat), I think this will lower kill time significantly but it'll be harse on mage MP keeping me or other tanks alive.

Also we're going to go after Jormungand again soon. I won't say when just in case someone wants to be a prick and cockblock us, but I'll post when we try (hopefully to win) along with some pics if I can find out how to post them.

Dynamis - Xarcabard, Sea, CoP, Assaults, and Merits.

Been a busy few days. Dynamis - Xarcabard netted us a pair of Koga Tekko (Grats Achelois), a pair of Monster Gloves (Grats Kinkkerbelle), a pair of Bard's Cannions (Grats Nomar) and a Wyrm Armet (Grats whoever won the freelot). We didn't go for the DL fight but instead tried to farm. We killed a decent amount but wiped on a huge linked pull with about 5 minutes left on the clock. Crappy drops but a fun night I suppose. =(

Monday we popped Jailer of Faith and Ix'Aern(DRK). The Faith fight was our first, and very fun (though lots of EXP loss). The Ix'DRK fight took a while and was mildly fun. Both dropped the pop items though! I hear we're very lucky with our Sea drops, however we haven't gotten any torques. Grats Rigelus on Faith Baghnakhs.

Got a few more merits throughout the week putting me at 66 total merits and capping Katana skill! Time to do some uber damage.

My Static is wrapping up CoP and we did 8-2 yesterday along with getting the map of Hu'Xzoi. Norkio is having some RL problems so we're going on ahead of her. When she's ready to play again I and probably a few people from the static are going to get her her ring as she's a great red mage and shouldn't be left behind that far in.

Did one SP Mamool Ja Staging point Assault yesterday getting me 800 points and an Antivenom Earring which is on the Auction House right now and two Lebros Cavern Assaults today. I'm going to save up my SP Lebros Assault Points to get a Chivalrous chain as I think I've needed one for a while now.

On a more negative note, my friend and linkshell mate Rukkia is quitting the game. He'll be back though I hope :D He's getting burnt out playing the game so many hours each day, and I'm suprised I haven't done the same already. Also our Leader Anaeran is having a tough time with school so his playtime is almost non-existant. The officers are doing a good job keeping the shell alive though. We'll see how things turn out, I'm sure they'll be fine.

Merits and god farming.

Got some merits last night with Rsouljah, Arcien, Hailie, Rukkia, and Dejavu. Yeah, that's 2 Ridill wars. I was happy :D We went to the Celestial Nexus but our mages died somehow (I was personally trashed off my ass and only paying attention to the mob we were on XD) and didn't have RR up, so Blazeoffury came up which took like 30 minutes of downtime. That sucked. After we were up, we started killing again but Soul DC'd soon after. So I invited blaze to join after waiting and deciding Soul wasn't coming back and we switched to killing Aura Weapons. We still kept high chains even with only 3 DDs. In total we got 25-30k exp that night, which landed me Katana merit number 6 and a spare, which brings my total up to 61 merits :)

Earlier in the day though we did sky farming, we got a some done, didn't clean house or anything, and we missed claim on Ulli, which puts me back another week on Haidates (Looking at 2 months minimum now, I'm third in line for them ><) but ended up getting MG, SC, Faust, and I think a Despot and maybe something else, I can't really remember.

Right now I'm camping the Hocho NM with soul, trying to make some gil to upgrade ninjar but no luck so far =\ we got a light spirit pact from another NM though so it's not a complete waste.

Dynamis - Xarcabard tonight, just farming though I think, we really need to get the win one of these days, but we keep losing members (a lot have quit the game recently) and no one seems to be applying :( Hopefully some good AF2 will drop tonight.

Taking the blog's virginity.

Made a blog for my FFXI character Eulore on the Quetzalcoatl server. If you're reading this and you don't know me you're probably very bored or something.

I won't bore you with my past and how I started and such, and honestly I can't be arsed to remember.

I'm in the end-game Linkshell CelestialKnights. We are mostly Sky based, but also do pop NMs, Sea NMs, and sometimes 3 Kings. Personally I wish we would camp Kings more often, however the majority of our members aren't on at the very flexible and sometimes wild hours required to camp Kings.

I am on CoP Mission 8-3, words cannot describe how much I am impressed with the static I lead to beat these CoP missions. Neosquall, Norkio, Nichole, Uliwela, and Bedwarmer, you are all some of the most talented players on the server. We've only lost 2 BC's, the Airship fight we had Ultima (the last boss in the BC) down to 3% on our very first run (no dry runs) before we were ejected out because of the time limit. The second time we went in we beat the time record clearing it well over 10 minutes before the limit. The other BC we lost to was the Promyvion - Holla final BC, which we went in 2 hours later for our 2-hour abilities to be up and completely destroyed that too. We've never done a dry run on any BC because I don't believe in them, and didn't like the idea of losing EXP/time. Call me a hardass, but we play to win.

I'm on Zilart Mission 17. Special thanks to everyone who had helped me get sky access, with special thanks to Sethela (now retired ; ;) who helped me with the majority of the missions. Also special thanks to CK for helping me complete Divine Might and obtain my Suppanomimi.

I'm in an Assault static lead by Aeron from CK. The other members are Rsouljah, Rukkia, Wakmidget, and Thefirst. We are currently on the Superior Private Assaults, and plan to tackle the Missions eventually as well.

Recently I bought my last piece of Paladin gear I need, which was the Cassie Earring. The only other buyable piece I need besides this is the Kaiser Shield which I don't plan to buy in a very long time due to its rarity and high price (15-20 million or so, I don't even know the exact price). This was a very happy time as now all I need is rare/ex items to become my dream of the perfect Paladin, and lets me spend gil improving my Ninja. I have sold all my solo/exp party Paladin gear because with Ninja leveled I don't need it anymore.

I play Ninja differently than most other players expect. On the grind 37-75, I used heavily DD oriented gear, whereas most Ninjas use mass amounts of evasion. It took a lot more concentration counting shadows and timing the casting, but it was worth it. Most people think that Ninjas need these high amounts of evasion to not get hit, and this is simply not true. With haste and my high parry skill that I had from Paladin, I rarely got hit because I counted my shadows like any good Ninja should. I had trouble holding hate in less than 10 parties the entire grind, and hated partying with Thieves as I felt the extra hate was not needed, and in most cases it wasn't. Needless to say, many people were impressed, and hopefully I changed the way Ninja is viewed to multiple people. Now at 75 people do consider Ninja an excellent DD (one of the top 3), and I continue to strive to be the best with my equipment and merits. I still have a long way to go though, but hopefully one day I will get there.

My Ninja does have an HNM gear set, however it's no where near the best, and mostly something I threw together with less than 1 million in case I couldn't tank anything on my Paladin. So far the only Higher level NMs I've tanked are Ancient Goobue (Trioed with me Kiting), Feeler Antlion (Rostrum Pumps NM), and Suzaku (Sky god). Each time I think I did exceptionally well. That being said, I perfer PLD/NIN on wyrms (Fought Jormungand a few times) compared to NIN/WAR because I have the ability to heal myself and the other tanks, cover them to regain MP thanks to Valor Surcoat, and still take little to no damage while they're on the ground. I don't have DRK subjob for Ninja leveled yet, because I hate leveling it, but hopefully will get that done someday.

I don't think I have much else to say, jeez that was a long post. I'm out.
