It's Been A Long While, How Have You Been?

Yeah time for another major blog update >_>".

Alot has changed since I last posted, we are now Lv90 and new area and so much stuff has been added into this game.

In the next few days I'll try to update all my job info to the lastest so stay tuned (if anyone even reads my blog anyway :D)

Eat This Bahamut

Ever since I got my Drk to 75, I never got to use it in a real "Souleater Zerg". So I was excited when we got to do Bahamut V2 BC.

We went a toal of two times. First time was the standard with four songs and haste, then Souleater and Bloodweapon on Bahamut. That one went down pretty fast without trouble. Sinced we had used up 2hr on the first fight I though it was over, but the leader said we were going again, this time without Bloodweapon, with the Whm spamming cures and Benediction if needed. This one took slightly longer than the first with one or two unfortunate deaths, but Bahamut went down in the end.

We got Bahamut Mask and Staff from our two BCs. Both nice pieces for PLD and SMN respectively.

Though I did well, but my Drk is far from perfect and still needs some improvemets, but I am running out of space as it is, if only they gave use more storage space.....

Wings Of An Angel

New update gave us Ufail (Uriel) Blade , campaign only WS from a sword purchased with allied notes, a wooping 150,000 AN. It was reported duing Fan Fest that these campaign only weaponskill were too powerful that it was not allowed to be used outside campaign, something we all wanted to se for ourselves.

I got to say it lived up to its name Ufail Blade. I did a wooping 80 dmg with the weaponskill. Only rarely did I ever saw it hit 200 dmg. But it does generate alot of enmity, and who doesn't want Angel wings for a weaponskill.

Now who do I stick this blade into for a refund.....

Doubletaru Trouble

You know its bad when there are suddenly two doctor Shantotto, worst if they are bend on taking over the world.

With that said, I recently completed my final BC for this mission for my pants for my Rdm idle set.

Like the other two add-on Missions, this one is just as annoying as the other two. The final fight though was abit more fun as you get to fight two Shantotto. If you think the odds were stacked against us, you were right, but we had some help, sixteen Hexes to collect to get buffs for the fight to even things out with the twin dominitrixes.

We went with a full TP burn setup and just went all out on one shantotto while the brd kited the other. We didn't get much trouble other than one member's death.

The final CS for the mission is by far the best and LOL CS I have ever seen in the game. A must see for anyone wanting a good laugh and good old Shantotto never fails to make you LOL.

I would watch it over again, but Den of Rancor is one annoying place to get to...

Excuse Me, You're In My Face !

Recently I've been invited to join a HNMLS xJOKERSx , they are quite a good team of players with many relics/mythic among them.

Well, one day as I was wandering around, I got a message from linkshell chat that Khimera had popped and was up unclaimed. I pulled out my warp scroll and started running toward Caedarva Mire.

Khimera is one of those HNM that is a pain to get to as you have ot run tru alot of true-sound VT-ish monsters like flayers and imps, aggro en-route to camp is very common, resulting in having to make it as far as you can to camp before dying, and getting a raise.

But today I actually managed to MGS (Metal Gear Solid), a term I used to dodge pass those monsters, and made it to camp without aggro.

It was my first time tanking Khimera and together with a Rdm/Nin, a Brd and Rdm, we managed to hold it till other members got here. I didn't have to tank long as Ryuta had just logged in and he came over as Pld to take over the tankign job as he has Aegis and Excalibur, leaving me to change job.

I got to say, Khimera hits pretty damn fast without debuffs, but it was fun and exciting to be able to tank a HNM like that.

I guess I got alot more work to put into my Pld if I want to tank anything outside "lolCampaign".
