I use Fraps to get my screenshots.

The free version saves them in BMP format and you can use a simple editor like MSpaint to save it to Jpeg and cut out the needed detail.
The free version can also record 30 seconds of movie material.

The registered version can save in several other formats and can record unlimited movie material.

Spirit Taker grats~ I need to skillup staff myself :D

Did my first (and last) Sky yesterday and boy did it suck! Took like an hour to get everyone together after a few deaths getting there. All I did was spend money to do a WS that ultimately gets boned up by someone interrupting the SC, paralyze or macro errors and they didn't even use me on Genbu :x big fat waste of time and money, never again :x

If all you did was fight Genbu, then you didn't really do much of sky. You missed all the fun of trying to get Ullikimi, tryin to pop Despot and Steam Cleaner, watching a PLD get beat into a corner by Faust, seeing how good your LS is at handling multiple spawns against Mother Globe, all sorts of fun stuff. ^^ Not to mention Byakko, Seiryu and Suzaku, plus Kirin. :lol:
OMFG! 8 75+!!!! :shock: Who knew slackers could work so hard? D:

Like I've indicated jokingly on the post Staff skill ups go slow, very slow.
Sometimes I fought skill up mobs for an hour without even getting .1.
And it's not accuracy when I wear a Jaeger ring a Venerer ring and a Life belt and use sushi I hit 95% of the time.
Quite frustrating to say the least.
I've been putting staff skill ups off for a long time because of that and just pulled it out when I fought mobs that could give me a skillup.

As for sky, yes depending on how big your LS is you might be put out of some fights due to a full alliance or be switched in when needed.
Endgame is not put out for everyone tho, if you're not deticated to it you might not enjoy it.
This game is made to have fun, and if you don't have fun in endgame you probably shouldn't do it.

But before you pass a final judgment try to do some more stuff like Kintrra sais.
If you still don't enjoy it, you can always quit it.
A lot of my friends have several high level jobs but don't do endgame because it simply doesn't suit them.
And there's enough other stuff in the game for High levels that don't need an endgame linkshell and can be done by friends.

We did Byakko twice aswell still boring and not fun at all. Dynamis is fun, Sky and gods most certainly is not, not for me at least.

As for skillups, guess you can't use the banana staves :P I take it you were on steel shells and yeah 200+ is always slow for skillups :( 2-handed weapons even more so than 1-handed.

Like I said, play how you enjoy this game.
If you don't like sky you don't, easy enough. :)

As for skill ups and the Kinkobo or Primate staff.
Yes I use the Primate staff on whm since smn can't use it.
It's a great staff, it has good damage output and the critical hit rate is. <3
Yes for skill up parties I used to do steelshells from 185>205 until I started throwing nasty words about SE to my computer again abot the slow skillups :)

I actually got 215 on Quadav in Qulun dome farming a friend a BLM test.

Oh Right, for Accomplishments. I got a Garliage Citiadel Coffer Key. Now that's two peices of AF I can get :D

Crimson Blade

Or...you could just buy it on the AH :P

As to the weapons skills, there are several weapon skills that your job can "learn" (ie, your sword skill reaches 50 and you get the message "<you> learn Red Lotus Blade") but they are exclusive to other jobs like pld/war/drk and blu in the case of Red Lotus Blade.

Rdms can learn and use:

Fast Blade
Burning Blade
Flat Blade (edit~ forgot this one :P)
Shining Blade
Circle Blade
Spirits Within (<3 this one)
and Savage Blade

Its annoying as all hells to see that you "learned" a technique that your job can't actually use, but you can sub war (for example) and get access to Red Lotus Blade and the others we miss out on by being Rdms. :)

Things I've done..... got Evisceration for dagger, got another Covert upgrade so I'm now at 9mins on my Convert timer :D and I'm now only 6 stacks of bz coins away from my walahara turban :lol:

Don't need windower for fraps to work, it runs in the background of programs.

The quads in dome should be good till 230ish at least, possibly 240, for skillups :) I know a BLM was skilling Staff on them back when I was going for my RDM test.

RDM get royally screwed when it comes to WSs, master fencer and we get jack pfft. Same goes for Dagger we miss out on Dancing Edge and Shark Bite but Energy Drain is quite nice on crabs.

Got COR to 40 yesterday, Quick Draw and Evoker's Roll for me :) gonna use up the rest of my bullets then put it on hold till AF comes out (lazy ass SE!).

Nope. It is a 3rd party program that seems to be allowed under the ToSA as well.

Alchohol is not good for ju.... 8)

You wouldnt believe how many Marines Careers are ruined by them drinking alchohol. I expect its the same way for civilians as well.

Alcohol is the best non perscription muscle relaxant you can buy as well as the most widely used recreational drug around.

Yes, many have been ruined by alcohol, and the military encourages its use. There are several tricks to using it safley, eating is one, moderation is another. Learn to count your drinks. If you can't remember the number, STOP.

It is good to know objectivley just how drunk you are. My gague to how inebreated I am has always been my teeth. If two teeth are numb, I can still drive. If six teeth are numb its time to stop drinking. Learn your own signs, a friend once told me "Its easy, after I giggle I stop, that's one drink."

- Killed King Behemoth. RMT CFH'd it, so we ran around until the pansies fled the zone, got claim and took it down, nice and neat.
- {Walahra Turban} Yay!
- Beat Dynamis-Xarcabard again, but still no Armet to upgrade. ; ;
- {PFC Wildcat badge} ... and hopefully only 1 or 2 assaults from the next level. :)

Got accepted to a Dynamis LS. For a 68 Drg, I'd call this an accomplishment.
In the end, I'm just talking out of my ass. So take it all with a grain of salt.

Really???? Thats weird cause I get a formation and a talking too every week by an officer or Gunnery Sergeant and they always say "DONT DRINK." What's even more weird is, everyday at work my Staff Sergeant pesters me and says:

How old are you?
*Me* 19
What does that mean?
*Don't drink*
No.
That means If you Catch you drinking your A** is mine.
*Roger that Staff Sergeant*

Ahh I get it. It must be the Army, Navy, and Airforce that encourage drinking. Gotcha :2thumb:

:lol: Think you may be preaching to the wrong crowd :P most young people stop when it's last orders :lol:

Me personally, my decision making is uneffected by any volumn of alcohol and I know when it's a good time to stop (to stop me from being sick :P). This is generally when my equilibrium is somewhat comprimised and I start feeling a bit queezy :D

{/comfort} Ka-chan, after getting sky all my 70+ parties have still been in Bibikini :lol:

My end game LS accepts almost anyone at 65, but you're not allowed AF2 until 70 :P (get double points to make up for it though).

Guess 'cause you're 19, PH, makes you under age in the US, otherwise they wouldn't mind? :P

Edit: Almost forgot to add my accomplishment :lol:
Spent all of yesterday leveling Staff from 164 to 200, Full Swing is mine :D
