Busy Weekend

Genmo and Etcetera were great, and really helped me knock out tons of stuff.

We did my RDM AF "Pimp" Hat, the Warlock's Chapeau, first. We had to go to Feiyin and kill Miser Murphy, then go to Garlaige and pop a Doll NM behind the first banishing gate. We wiped the first fight because I was lolmeleerdm and didn't heal Genmo enough. It was really spamming the AoEs at the end. A helpful 74BST from the LS came out to help, because I wanted to be SURE we didn't lose again. Won the 2nd time, no problem.

I had already gotten a Garlaige Coffer Key, so while we were there we hit up the switches to get my coffer. It was deep behind gate two, but it was up and we were out of there in no time. Warlock's Tights, check.

Next, we headed to Castle Oztroja for my Warlock's Tabard (body). Since the only crest Waif needed for Limit Break 3 was the Yagudo Crest, I brought him along and parked him behind the locked door. The coffer was already up. Today was going great. :)

We got a key in under an hour; I actually dinged 60 while there, the Yagudo were giving like 10 exp apiece. I ran in, popped the Coffer, and then turned around to go get the password for the trapdoor. Etcetera decided to just try to brute force the gate, so I waited. started spamming the three password system, and she broke in after about 10 minutes. It was great.

Ran everyone down, Etcetera started teleing, and I clicked the ??? and got the crest, and we teleported out.

I dropped Waif in town, and we headed to Eldieme to get my Old Gauntlets. We got the key pretty quickly, but none of the coffers were up. While Etcetera and I scanned the basement, Genmo headed out to Beaucedine Glacier. There is a separate section of Eldieme that cannot be accessed from Batallia Downs, but (somewhat) luckily, the Coffer was up.

Also in that section of Eldieme is the fight I needed for my BST AF pants (Lv60 Beast Trousers). So, Etcetera and I headed out there. I had already activated and done the pre-fight stuff, so I was able to pop the coffer and the NMs back to back. Got my Old Gauntlets and my Beast Trousers, no problem.

We grouped up with Deleon, then knocked out all 3 ENMs (Guarding Earring for Mea, and the ENFEEBLING EARRING!!!!! for Dem), and then did Escort. I got ~1200 and ~1300 on my scrolls, it was great.

I woke up before work today, and a party was shouting for Dark Spark (the fight that transforms the Old Gauntlets into AF). I joined up as Shampoo and Waif, now 60RDM and 60PLD with buffer (thanks to escort ^^), and we beat it no problem.

I forgot to screenshot ANY of that crap, I was so excited. :( But it was a VERY productive weekend, and I look forward to trudging my way to 75RDM 75PLD.

Hopefully we can get together on DRG or our side-static (GenmoNIN, EtceteraWHM, DandruffshampooBRD, WaifWAR, and... I dunno what we'll do since Deleon is 67RNG now - dinged right before I left for work :D). I love RDM, did it to 70 on Worldofwarcraft (shut up, I thought it would be funny -_-), but I really wanted BST or DRG to be my first 75.

Limit Break, NIN

Did the three crests with Waif (Etcetera helped me open the magical forcefield in Davoi, and Genmo provided lots of navigational help).

Since our static has kind of fallen apart at the moment (Genmo taking a break, my changing work schedule sucking, so on), I've taken to levelling Waif's NIN.

My eventual plan is for Waif to be 75PLD 75WAR 75NIN and just have him be my tank character. Since WAR is technically staticed (I did do a party with Deleon and got ahead of Genmo and Etc >_> whoops), and PLD is staticed with my BST on Shampoo ~ I went ahead and got NIN levelled from 27 to -

I dinged 40NIN last night. I am borrowing three big ticket pieces from Genmo : Fuma Kyahan, Horomusha Kote, and Jujitsu Gi. I finally used the scroll I got from Under Observation, and have been relearning my Ni-Ichi-Ni cycle.

Tonight, taking a break from exping to farm up my Ni elemental scrolls. Since the main reason I wanted 40 NIN was for Mammets (CoP mission), I need the main weapon for that fight.

The next Limit Break I'll have to do is one I need for both Shampoo and Waif, so that'll be fun. My friend wants to do the PLD AF storyline, so right now I only have PLD AF boots. Heh. But I got my BST Gloves the other night (thanks Genmo, Etcetera). So I'm 3/5 on BST AF. Need my pants and jack coat now.

50DRG, 31THF, and Artifact

I've gotten really bad about posting. Lots of work, and what free time I do have, I prefer to spend playing rather than posting.

Got 50DRG earlier this week. Did 47-49 in West Altepa (48-49 was a stretch, because the beetles were mostly DC, with some EM). They both got Penta Thrust, but because we ran out of EMs, I couldn't get the final skill up (being at 149 Polearm for an hour sucked bad); we were doing Penta > Double (Transfixion-Light) > Penta (Compression-Dark). We then went to Crawler's Nest and went downstairs to Beetles. We got 50, and then after getting buffer, we went to get AF pants.

We're going to Quicksand Caves to do Beetles there tonight. Genmo went to do AF boots, and the beetles were all checking T-VT. Yay.

This morning, I got up before work early and soloed in Korroloka for an hour and got my final 3k exp to ding Lv31.
