Yay Tianshii

Bit of a mini-achievement, I got to use my Dark Amood when the latent was active and omg it's awesome

The "occasionally attacks twice" I figure procs around 50% and it semi-stacks with Double Attack. That's to say the percentages don't add together because both can proc in the same round, Triple Attack Great Axe anyone? Opened a fight with Triple Attack, Triple Attack, Double Attack

pulled hate without use of WS it's just so insane

Great party, only 5 of us and had most of the Mire to ourselves. Short but very sweet, good fun

Well, I'm posting here for the first time in ages. Does that count?

Seriously, I broke my addiction to Oblivion last weekend and today was my first day back in FFXI in over two weeks and to celebrate I got Keavy to level 63 and finally learned Pro IV. Now I can't wait to get to 68 for Shell IV because next to Pro IV, Shell III looks like crap.

What else...well, I did some Aht Urghan missions but hit a wall when I found out that I have to wait until after JP midnight to start the next one.

Also, the reason I returned on a Friday was because the living room was taken over. My roommate and his buddies got ahold of GRAW 2 and have been playing it non-stop since they got home today. See, normally me and my friends have what we call "Friday Night Flicks" in the living room. We pick a movie that requires little thought to comprehend or is a childhood favorite and we watch it together. Sort of a stress reliever.

So after leveling in the most boring party ever (I swear to God, we had the best NIN ever tanking for our party. She lost shadows three times in four hours!) and after I leveled and gained an exp buffer the party broke. I decided that I should continue the proud tradition of FNF by myself by watching The Princess Bride. And I did. And that movie is still freaking awesome.

So yeah...as of this posting its 1 am on Saturday and my roommate and his buddies are STILL playing GRAW 2. Its gonna be a long weekend.

whats the name?

Tianshii · Post by **Tianshii** » Sun Feb 25, 2007 2:42 am

Oh, its kind of an inside joke, but the name of the ls is "JyeDies"
My friends name is Jye and... well.. his death count is more then the sack puller, PLD & BLM put together! LOL
In our former dyna shell, seemed like he was the only one sleeping things, so when they all woke up... Jye died! (unless I Cure V him hehe)

On a side note: *ding* DRG 16
I had to turn down 3 party invites today

and change my seacom to {party} {i'm sorry} {no thanks} {time for work!} @ 20 {minute}

*Ding* *Ding*

Yeeah, that's right: WHM 65!!!

Three levels in one weekend!

You hear that...That's the sound of Maat crying. Crying because he knows Keavy is coming for his ass and I am gonna make him PAY for what he did to Phoenixhawk.

Now I gotta level...BLM *Barf* before I can take WHM any further. Soon as I get to level 75 I'm taking RDM there next.

Okuza · Post by **Okuza** » Mon Feb 26, 2007 5:45 am

You do know that WHM wins the Maat fight by letting him beat on you until he gets bored and gives up, right? Not quite the drubbing I think you have in mind for him.

Puh-leaze. He won't lay a hand on me. Once word gets out that I won without a single scratch he'll be so humiliated that he'll shamefully resign.

Oh, *Ding* *Ding* again. BLM 34 and I'm starting to like it. After WHM I may take BLM to 75 then level RDM. Just in case SE decides to raise the level cap to 150

Also just finished a Triple Besieged. Undead followed immediately by Trolls with Mamool Ja about half an hour after trolls. We won all three rounds no sweat

Blasting my Bard ahead, 52-56 in 2 days. It's raping my wallet, I can only imagine what it'd be like if I ate food.

In other news, spent hours camping Stray Mary for about a 33% claim rate, and a 0% drop rate. Le Sigh. So the next day I log in and procede to butcher sheep as usual. (Requiem everything in the area, paeon and earth staff to stay at full hp, then Earth Crusher ws wipes 'em all out.) When I do a /sea in the area, see if I have competition.

I see a 75 Rng/Thf, crapola. Mary's Horn goes for 300-350k on my server. So I politely ask him in /tell if he's camping SM. He responds no, he's hunting rams for crafting ingrediants. I lament to him how I hate camping, I'm bad at it, and thankful he's not someone I have to compete against. He sends me a pt invite.

First thing I see in party chat, "Stray Mary, {Found it!}" My heart skips a beat, thinking he could be sadistic and leading me on and there is no Mary, he'll take the drop right infront of my eyes and laugh as he sells it, or he'll give it to me. Either way, I mazurka and run my ass off to get to him. 3 sec later the horn drops, and he passes. o.o; I got it.

I thanked him at least 5-6 times. Even tried to pay him 30k for helping me, 10% of it's market value(I only had 40k). He wouldn't take it, saying he likes to help people. Huh, so there still are people like him in the world.

Post by **Sugami** » Tue Feb 27, 2007 12:35 pm

Aww, nice to know there's still a few good people around like that

Thank Altana there still are.

Within the last week, went from rank 5 to rank 7!

My head is still swimming!

Also!
I have brought BLM up to 28 and cried when I saw the price of Escape at the AH. So last night as DRG/THF went to Qufim and got a scroll on my first Banshee!

Then I got cocky and chased the damn things all night trying to get another one to sell. No luck but I farmed quite a few cotton cloths and revival roots that it was still worthwhile. Got about 2K worth of gil from random giants as well...

Tianshii · Post by **Tianshii** » Tue Feb 27, 2007 8:22 pm

nice tale there Eviticus! It's good to see someone being nice withough benefit for themselves! That's about as rare as a male mithra!!

ToAU 22 - DONE (just in time forrrrr the update)
Helped some people out w/ CoP 8.3 (the pot fight)
Dragoon *ding* 17!
Finally decided to trade in coins to get:

Hehe.. I went a little overboard and had extra so I extended my mog locker lease to June and gave 50 coins to a friend toward his Turban.

Pheonixhawk · Post by **Pheonixhawk** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 1:59 am

Got lvl 74... again... lol. One more lvl to go. Looks like it almost time for me to hang up my Red Mage Guantlets and lvl up something else. After all I have no intentions of doing endgame anymore. From what ive heard from most of you. It's just a waste of time and gil. Next job up on my list is.......... Corsair FTW!!!!! Do what you want cause a Pirate is free. You are a pirate!!!

I claim this page in the name of all Future Red Mages! Never give up and climb to the top!!

Okuza · Post by **Okuza** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 2:36 am

Actually, if you approach it with the right attitude, end-game can be fun. The game just beats you down after a while if you start out with the idea of actually making some item progress.

Merits kinda count as end-game and they're really hot stuff -- especially for leveling other jobs. They're absolutely huge for doing level-capped or second job or H/NM. Full merits takes about the same XP as leveling a second job from 1-75.

Keavy · Post by **Keavy** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 7:36 am

I thought full merits were 2.5 million exp (Or two jobs to 75 and one to 40) maybe I was wrong.

Oh, for my update: *Ding* *Ding* *Ding* BLM 37!!!!

BLM is done as far as subjob status goes. Tomorrow I start on Summoner then I begin working on making the money I need for my Blessed gear and Maat fight then go back to leveling WHM the final ten levels (And the Maat humiliation) needed to get to WHM 75 and unlock my first FFXI achievement.

PUP57!!!!!!!!!!

Tianshii · Post by **Tianshii** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 7:56 pm

Endgame can be fun if you manage to find an "hnmls" without gear-obsessed scandalmongers in it... which is ... well ... like finding a male mithra!!

On my server, I revived a shell a good friend and I created in 2005. We do some end game, but no HNM camping. We also don't let in people who put gear over friends & helping others. So far so good with that strat.
Good luck!

Oh and... got woodworking to 10! hehe

Also helped a friend (and some other peeps who just showed up

) with that bat WS NM. Fun fight, got to really work my Summoner since we had a WHM there.

Katina · Post by **Katina** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 10:40 pm

I live for endgame and ballista. only reason i'd lvl a new job is if i'm bored w/ what i got atm and want to take a break. also i want the 5 job combo imho.

support/ tank / spike dd/ dd / stat booster aka refresher

Lvling brd will give me the last job i need to finish the set but in some ways i could combine stat booster w/ my whm and say i'm done. but iono

Um stuff i've gotten done latly r... bonecraft to 98.4 and lvling brd to 11-18 in one day lol so i'm kinda done w/ the dunes *THX GOD*

Shirai i dare you to come to ballista and enter my domain muhahahah

GOLD BALLISTA STAR << FINALLY

I don't Ballista much, mostly for fun.

Then again my nin sub job si still down at level 22 so I don't really have a job to Ballista with.
As soon as that is up to 37 I will take the challenge and bring my whm/nin

Keavy · Post by **Keavy** » Thu Mar 01, 2007 9:03 am

*Ding* *Ding*

SMN 34!

Also, I got an e-mail today from GameFly that they just sent out Bullet Witch. If getting a new game from GameFly the same week its released isn't an accomplishment, I don't know what is

Post by **Sugami** » Thu Mar 01, 2007 12:24 pm

WHM/RDM is a good combo, addition of Phalanx makes you quite hard to crack

Personally I hate Ballista unless it's a private one, it's usually full of people who suck the fun out of it and can only feel good about themselves when they beat others in direct competition.

Steel Cyclone obtained!

Decimation next!

Post by **Alya Mizar (Tsybil)** » Sat Mar 03, 2007 5:45 pm

Soloed NIN/RDM to 18 in the Maze. That's a LOT of arrows.

Today Bastok and Korokola Tunnel, for 20.

Then I don't have to bother with NIN for a LOOOONG time.

Maybe now I will actually get to see a Mammet.

ScarlettPheonix · Post by **ScarlettPheonix** » Sat Mar 03, 2007 6:15 pm

If you want, a really good alternative is to take your npc out, set it to healer/soothing healer and go chain crabs in either the Dunes or Bubu. I've easily gotten chain #4s in Bubu when I was 18-22 or so.

Not much for me in the way of accomplishments- my latest chocobo is finally full grown. NoirPhoenix lived up to his name/parentage and molted into a handsome set of black feathers

Igihstehr · Post by **Igihstehr** » Sat Mar 03, 2007 6:33 pm

Three dings over the week... Up two levels in BLM to 29 and up one level in WHM to 28. Twice in a row, while seeking as BLM in Kazahm I had to switch to WHM because we couldn't find a healer...

But making progress with BLM, which is my focus right now. I look pretty snazzy in my Seer's gear with a hefty +INT bonus to boot (+12 total).

Post by **Sugami** » Sun Mar 04, 2007 2:05 am

After not leveling for a week or two...

Ding WAR72, hello Woodville's Axe and Ruby Rings (Steel Cyclone and Mistrel Axe/Decimation).

Smacked down a 1K+ Steel Cyclone too, Double Attack and crits methinks seeing as the norm is 400-500ish on 100% ^^

Good idea but I wanted to be alone, and that means no Clearite either. Not in a bad mood or anything, just wanted to solo worms to do it. Then again there is this sweet Elvaan guy who tries to see that I am never alone /sigh....

NIN 19 & 1/4 now, maybe I will try that to get to 20. Clearite can chaperon if he tries to get to close.

Save on ammunition too.
