Tuesday Popping NMs in Sky, Wednesday Seiryu x3 and Genbu x2

Tuesday was popping of Olla, Ulli, and BB for minis on Wednesday and Thursday. Also Niko recently started to play more and he joined us for that night. Though nothing else happen that night since I logged off right after Sky. However I can't wait for the killing of minis since there are still stuff I would like a chance to lot on.

Today Wednesday was Seiryu and Genbu. We started off with Seiryu and we had 25 people around start. When we started to pop the first Seiryu, we had 33 people or so in the LS. I was expecting 25 people at the most, but with recruiting and old members returning we broke the 30 members on a pop night for once. Anyways, we popped Seiryu x3 and I was up for attendance lot on D.head. The past Seiryu we did since I joined we got no D.head, I mean since I joined Rawr I don't believe there was a D.head that dropped. Today out of the 3 Seiryu 2 dropped a D.head and I was close to getting one. However I was beat by Chinis with a higher 900+ lot then me. Maybe next time I will get lucky and get one, but I would like to get my N.body before trying to point lot D.head. After Seiryu x3 was done, we did Genbu x2 and since we had 33 people in LS those who didn't need stuff from Genbu went to Sea to farm since we had so many people sitting out during Seiryu x3. What I wanted from Genbu was the shield and I was lucky enough to get one. I can't wait until next week when we do Kirin x2, but first we finish off the minis we have tomorrow.

Limbus and 6 Merits Late Night Sunday, Assault Monday

In the morning I did Limbus with Dreams, however Ultima was scheduled so only the extras and late comers were there to farm. So we did Apollyon farming with only 7 people and unfortunately we wiped on the first floor with fomors. We didn't have a sleeper so with 5 fomors linking on a bad pull we wiped. We didn't get to open chests for material items until the last floor with elements. Hopefully soon I can get some NIN material items since my NIN really needs an upgrade on the gloves.

At night I decided to seek for a merit party since the World Series was practically over. I was lucky enough to get a very good merit party pretty quickly. And out of the party I got about 6 merits in 3 hours, and it was fun since it was a real TP burn party. I was also able to party with Eor and his Ridill a hour later when I joined the party since he came to replace a member of the party. It turned out nice since I could again do a comparison on how I do against a Ridill WAR. However, needless to say I was destroyed by him with me only doing 573.36 in 1 hour and him with 709.18 in 1 hour. I would still like to try again with better equipment but that will be awhile since my NIN needs a few upgrades still.

Today was Assault and we did a PFC the first tag since Myrrh is taking a break from the game and Gala is still MIA. After that we did 2 tags of Nyzul Isle, which we did with 5 people as Baja able to get a LS mate to join and were lucky enough to get to the last floor with 7-10 mins to kill the boss. We got Askar Gambieras to drop during the 2nd tag and no drop on the 3rd tag. Hopefully we will do more Thursday since I would like a Denali Gamashes for my MNK and NIN, but Assault is generallly fun so either farming for points or nyzul is fine with me.

Trio Assault and Sky Farming Thursday, Dynamis Jeuno Friday

Thursday was Assault again, but Baja had to do HNM and Myrrh and Galaika were absent. Nyo and Skaw though helped me farm my last 3,000 points for my Amir Boots. We did 4 tags and I got my Boots.

After Assault I went up to Sky to show off my new boots. I was late because we waited a bit for Myrrh and Galaika and it took us awhile since we trio'd some easy missions. Anyways when I got there they were farming for water so I went up to help. We got a water and escaped out to farm for a SC. But Jussy said Faust was up so we went there and killed it. That basically ended sky farming for that day.

Friday was Dynamis at Jeuno and we were only at 19 people at start. We had to wait a bit but we got a total of 20-21 people at Jeuno. We only run 1 day a week with a roster of 29 active people, but it seems people can't make it which is some what depressing. Anyways that night we got lots of AF: RNG x2, WAR x2, WHM, BLM, THF, and BRD. Next month I believe we plan to do Northlands, but we will probably do it near the end of it because we need to get some people access to the Northlands.

Relaxing Weekend, Merits and Sky/Sea Farming.

Over the weekend I didn't do anything really. Saturday I did a bit of meriting and got 4 merits out of it, and on Sunday I took a break and spent the time with my baby niece. I was suppose to do Limbus in the morning before spending the rest of the day with family, but they came early so I skipped it.

Monday was suppose to be Assault, but I missed out on it since Baja, Nyo, and Gala were not on. I saw Skaw and Myrrh, but I guess they didn't feel like doing Assault so I logged for the day.

Tuesday was Sky farming, but before that I merited with a Japanese party first. Nothing special since there wasn't a BRD in the party, so I only got 2 merits out of it in 2 hours. I was also asked to play on WHM so it gave me some practice on it. However, I let the WAR in the party die two dies so there was around 10 mins of downtime. I suppose I need more practice on WHM, but he died from attack the wrong mob with a link and a bad pull with 4 mobs. Still though with a RDM sleeping I should have been more quick to keep him alive. Anyways I got 2 merits out of that party so I have 7 merits in my pool and only need 2 more to put 5 upgrades into WHM group 1.

Later that day in Sky we started farming a bit early, and it turned out to be our day for farming. We started off with MG and killed pretty easily. Then we escaped and started SC and got it at first pull. After that Aal started to head to Zippy to scan for it, and the rest of us to Despot. However Aal said Zippy just popped and we headed over to kill it. After Zippy was down Aal went to Faust to check it while we waited at the entrance. Again Aal said to move out since Faust was up too and we killed Faust pretty easily as well. The only NM left was Despot so we headed over there for the rest of the night. At the end we got Despot just as we were leaving Sky, and it turned out to be our night.

Today was Sky/Sea farming again, and I was apart of the Sea farming group. However it took awhile for the Sea farming group to gather since we had to pull off some people from Sky to join the Sea group. When we did start farming at Sea it was slow but we did pretty good with 5 or 6 chips dropping. Much better since we have a THF this time in the group. At Sky I heard they got MG for the night. Right now we have 10 mini sets total with 2 of each mini god. We also have 4 half sets, so with another water, curtana, SC, and Despot we will have 4 more sets. Tomorrow is Assault I hope and Sky/Sea farming again. Next week will be popping the minis, so I can't wait.

Week's Stuff 2!

I got lazy again with updates but it was the usual this week. Tuesday I merited a bit and got 2 merits out of the 1 hour pt. Sky was later that day so I spent the rest of the day mining before sky farming. When farming started we got lucky with Despot popping pretty quickly for us. The rest of the night we tried getting SC while waiting for Zippy, but either did popped.

Wednesday I merited again and got 2 merits out of the pt. With that I got 5 merits total for my final upgrade to cap RNG group 1. Sky farming again was later that day and we got 3 diorites and Faust I believe. We did farming in two groups so I'm not sure what the other group got exactly.

Thursday started off with Assault but we just did 2 tags of past missions for Myrrh since both Nyo and Gala could make it again. Not sure what Monday is going to be but hopefully Galaika will be back. Rawr is starting Sea so I spent the night farming at Sea with Rawr. However some people in Rawr don't have access yet or don't want anything in Sea yet so some of the ls farmed Sky at the same time others were in Sea. Aaleel then came with the conclusion that it maybe possible to farm both at the same time, and with that he made up his mind. The plan is to do a week cycle of farming and then a week cycle of killing stuff. Also during farming we will be trying to balance out teams to farm Sky and Sea at the same time. Points will be shared between the two since we will be farming both Sky and Sea at the same time. Anyways back to how farming was on Thursday. Sea farming went pretty good with a few chips and HQ pop items dropping. I heard Sky was pretty good too with SC popping for us and Faust and Zippy during off time farming.

Today Friday was Dynamis at Windy and this time we wiped 2 times! We farmed during that run because only 18 of us showed up during that run and when the run ended only 19 were there. Still a few AF dropped and we got some coins for Zel, the AF were: SMN, WAR, DRK, PLD. Again I was lucky enough to get WAR AF2. I hope we get more people to show up or recruit more people. We did pretty good with only 3 blms and a total of 18 people. Anyways next Friday is Jeuno again I believe, but first over the weekend I plan to merit a bit and I have Limbus on Sunday.

Merits and Assault Captain!

Sunday I got a couple of merits before logging for the day. I got to merit with Aki and its been a few months since I got to party with her. She is still skilled as ever and did a nice job on pulling. I've been meriting more so I can put some upgrades into WHM and RNG before starting on leveling another job. I ended the day with 3 merits earned and really close to a fourth. I need 1 more merit and I can put 2 upgrades into RNG.

Today I got a merit party in the morning before Assault later in the afternoon. Nothing special out of this group, but I was asked to go on WHM. It was good practice to try and get my technique down for it. I've wanted a chance to work on WHM in party situations since I still need work on playing it. Anyways I got a few merits out of the party and put two upgrades into RNG. 5 more merits and I can finish off RNG group 1, and then work on putting 5 upgrades into WHM group 1 and do Ninjutsu Skill upgrades.

Assault today was FL missions again. This time Nyo was absent and again Galaika couldn't make it again, so Baja asked Bahamnut to come again and Skaw asked Liefe. The first tag we tried Khimaira again and this time won! It looked pretty bad around 40% with our MP running low for Myrrh and Bahamnut, but we won with the use of Liefe's 2hour and Myrrh's 2hour. It was a fun fight and we will probably do it again for Nyo and Galaika who still need it. After the Khimaira fight we did the Count Dracula fight again for the second tag, but wiped because he was a beast! He chewed through my shadows so quickly with triple attacks that I died pretty quickly. We tried again the third tag and won this time with Baja changing to BRD to slow him down. We ended Assault after that and I did the quest for Captain and got my Rank and free portal usage! Tomorrow is Sky farming and Wednesday I have no idea.

Wednesday Kirin x2, Thursday Assault and Kirin x1, Friday Dynamis, Saturday Merits, Sunday Limbus

Bah, getting lazy again. Forgot to do updates so I have to do this big update. Anyways starting off on Wednesday was Kirin x2, same stuff with me kiting this thing but with the 2 handed weapon update we usually kill it around 40-45 mins; 30 mins if we had everyone coming to Kirin. Drops on the first Kirin was N.body for Spellbroker and second Kirin were D.body for Starks and Osode for Cheyne.

Thursday was Assault and we tried to do the last FL mission without Galaika but we wiped 3 times! All three tags! Was depressed after that, but we were so close. Maybe next time we will get it. After Assault was Kirin, we were low on people at start but people started so show when we popped it. In the end it dropped another N.body but Mish wasn't there so Scwall got it. Now I'm 2-3 people before my turn, hopefully more N.bodies will drop.

No idea how I lived, but the mages! ^^

Friday was Dynamis in Sandy again. No one needed the win so we just farmed for coins and AF. We got a wipe when Hyre tried to pull the gate and link a lot of stones. We tried about best to get them down but with 10-12 stones and only 4 blms and 2 kiters its hard. Add the 30+ mobs there and its very hard on a total of 23 people in that zone. I was excited though kiting 6 stones and watching our blms going all out trying there best to kill the stones. Although they only got 4 or 5 stones down, they die doing their job and as did the melees who were able to get 2 mobs down. After that wipe we had a smooth run, the AF that dropped were: WHM, RNG, DRG, WAR, RDM, and BST. I was fortunate enough to get RNG AF2. WHM AF was free lot, but I'm not too greedy and I didn't lot. There is plenty of Dynamis left and I'm sure I'll get another chance for WHM AF.

Saturday was just meriting and I got 3 merits that day but it should have been 5. The RDM we got when the pt started was only 72 but he just couldn't cure or had bad reaction time. The first time I died it was with him still holding 484 mp, but I said to myself, "np he was probably not paying attention". After the second time though with the same mp still in the pool I said to myself, "never mind he is a dumbass". I died 3 times with that RDM before he faked DC, but I suppose it could have been worst since I could have really died 7 times with his lack of healing me. Still merits are merits and I stopped using food after my second death, since I don't waste food on crappy parties anymore. I did nothing else that day since I just like to relax over the weekend.

Sunday was Limbus and it was Tower again. I got 3 coins but they didn't give out the coins for the last run, so I guess they will hand it out later. A NIN material dropped during that run and I tried my lucky but Topler got it. Looks like 5 people are trying for NIN so it will be a few weeks before I can get one. Tomorrow is Assault and maybe another try at the last FL missions. Till next post.
