Booming In The Ruins

The new patch that FFXI had around November came with alot of new NMs, so many in each zone.

One of them dropped something a friend needed for his Pup. Off we went to fight Boompadu, some big hulking golden ( looks more like piss colored to me ) robot thingy.

We had tried it as Blm/Nin but hate was kinda wonky and it was hard to cast spells with a big robot chasing you down as it always like ot switch target when I am mid-casting. We won the first time but not after calling in a few more friends to bring it down, and not before I had my face on the floor more than once.

Round two !

This time I came Cor and did the usual run, quickdraw, run quickdraw around the four teleport rooms. This time it was so much easier with each quickdraw doign 2-3% of its HP.

I had held it at 3% so my friend could change to Thf and come back, it dropped the pants he needed, which was good.

Cor is so fun some days lol.

A Marid And Some Pamamas

What has a bunch of pamama got to do with a marid?

Apperently a certian ZNM marid likes it, so I decided to go have a look. And so Iriz Ima was found.

Was a rather long fight around 1hr 15mins, since I don't have top end gears for my Corsair's quickdraw setup, but I was averaging 330 dmg Ice Shots. Just kept running around the tower at the secret enterance to whitegate.

Rather smooth fight start to end, only resisted heavily at 1% making my Ice Shots do 36 dmg. Considerding it was my first time, I think I did ok.

Now I can pop Dea, though I think I need abit more work on my Corsair before I decide to solo Dea.
