Please Sir, Can I have Some Morr?

Considering my luck, or rather lack of, I never though the day I would actually complete the Morrigan robe set.

When I joined my salvage group, I was only thinking of just completing my Morrigan's robe and considering the crappy drop rate of salvage, I never expected I could actually complete the robe itself, let alone the whole set.

But I guess after spending so much time ( and Exp ) in salvage, one would eventually get there.

It actually took me ten months to get the complete set. In this order:

Morrigan's Robe
Morrigan's Slopes
Morrigan's Pigaches
Morrigan's Cuffs
Morrigan's Coron

Of the five pieces, I think the feet was the rarest of them as it took alot of tries to get the NM to drop it.

Sadly, it looks so much better on my mannequin than it looks on me as my hair covers most of the Coron.

When It Rain, It Pours

Two weeks ago, we had our very first usukane (35) feet drop since the salvage group started, which was in March this year.

The problem with Bhaflau Remnants is that you have to go tru some trouble to trigger the "warp" to the room where this Rampart will keep popping monsters, it has the chance to pop a NM, which has a chance to drop the required salvage piece.

With that said, we have been getting trouble with the 2F Rampart popping all normal bees and not the NM for a long time.

So that day, we saw our first NM bee in months and maybe we broke salvage but, it actually dropped the usukane (35) feet.

So, two weeks later, I had managed to saved up some gil for my Ares's Cuirass, which I have had all three pieces long ago since I got the 35 piece cause everyone else in the group already has it.

Then the following day, we went to Bhaflau Remnants again cause another member also needed the usukane (35) feet. So like any other run we did the required stuff, and poped the Rampart. It seemed like another "lolbee" run with nothing but nq bees popping, but then, the NM popped and it dropped our second usukane (35) feet, then soon after that, a second NM popped and that one also dropped. This time Eragon got it as he was next in line.

So they said if a third NM popped, it was mine since I have the 15/25 pieces and I went "Yeah right". So, just to spite me, a third NM popped. This time I went "As if it will drop lol". Ok, so salvage has a great sence of humor cause the NM also dropped another 35 feet.

Remember Rikku's Law? Well its true.

So yeah, I got two salvage gears in under two days. And I think we just broke salvage, if you know what I mean hehehe.

Look Who Had The Last Croak !


Croak.... I mean.... laugh.

After so many months of Zhayolm Remnants not dropping my morrigan (35) feet, it finally dropped last week. This is our first morrigan (35) feet drop as well.

Run was like any except the 5F frog dropped usukane (35) hands, when it usually drops nothing for all our effort.

So we got to the 6F frog and as usual I felt as if its gonna be another "no-drop" run, but I always had that small hope it would, so when it was down to 5%, I closed my eyes.

I opened my eyes after I heard the battle music stop to see:
You find a pair of Macha's Pigaches on Poroggo Madame.
Everyone was "OMG DROP!" in party chat.

This puts me at 3/5 complated Morrigan with me only missing the (25) hands for 4/5.

It looks really nice too and so does the stats:

Croak !

Zhayolm Remnants is annoying sometimes...

The other day we went for Zhayolm Remnants for salvage. On our first run, the 5F Poroggo Madame kept on spamming his charmga move which wasted alot of time. Sad to day we didn't have time to kill the 6F frog for my morrigan (35) feet.

On our second run, we did one of the 4F Poroggo Madame for marduk (15) legs for one of our members as she has both the (25) and (35) pieces. But since in order to pop this frog, we have to reach that floor in under 30mins, which means we will be unable to kill the other NMs, so we decided to go for the boss after the 4F madame.

The second run went rather smoothly. We killed the Chariot Boss with ease and it dropped two skadi (25) hands, which apperently is what we really wanted form the boss today, hehe.

I got one of them and another one of our member got the other, completeing both our skadi hands.

Now... if only Long-Armed Chariot would actually drop my morrigan (25) hands......
