I want to kick ass ._.

October 29, 2007 at 3:38 pm | In Brenner, General FFXI | 2 Comments

With not much to do yesterday me and Amith decided to have a 1 on 1 in Brenner to liven things up! Hes just hit 70 Drk and as you know i just got 75 Rdm ;P slightly unfair levels wise but we just wanted a bit of fun, Brenner/Balista are still new to me so I’m up for exploring whats best whenever i can ^_^

 We got in and started to mash each-other! drk/thf and rdm/blm as i couldn’t be bothered to change sub but it worked out for the best ;P Amiths dmg was pretty good but with a few enfeebs he wa pretty screwed lol, i flicked off my new Thunder spell followed by a blizzard and he was pretty much dead. Ive been trying to figure a way to beat Oz in 1 on 1, its one of my goals in FFXI to kick his ass. I lost to him in my first try as my sleep seemed to only last two seconds, but this time round against Amith all my enfeebs seemed to stick and last for the normal length. I dont know if they’re nerfed or not now.

A rdm Vs drk is obviously pretty unfair tho, so Pod decided to come along as his 66 blu/33 nin. In our first match with them two Vs me we had 5 minutes before our Brenner reservation was up, and i killed them both with a min to spare XD Remember i said /blm turned out to be a good thing? because sleepga got through Pods shadows, making life easy.

 After that we decided to go get the Gheselba Outpost Balista spot. This time Amith and Pod were more organised and they were allot harder to beat. Pod started to self-destruct, get my stoneskin down and then ami would nearly mash me. In the end tho i did kick their asses mostof the time. So pod Switched to his 73 Bst/nin as he was sick of dieing.

Things stopped going my way from then on. 70 Drk/thf, 73 Bst/nin & Courrier Carry Vs 75 Rdm/blm = Dead Millions.

Poison potions were my downfall D: Pod bought some when he changed jobs (he takes things way too seriously lol) and without being able to sleep them i didn’t have time to buff me up and de-buff them because 3 people hitting me made casting spells very hard lol >.< Without stoneskin i was a gonner D:

Also a slight problem was I have no idea how Bst works, i dont have it unlocked and never partied with one. I thought once his pet was dead there’d be some sort of wait before he could get another out but i guess not, i tried to pick of the pet and then deal with them two but another pet just poped out the blue >.< Spaming DoT spells was all i could manage to hurt them in the end

I guess it makes sense thats i couldnt beat two lvl 70+ people and a pet, but im sure there must be a way >.<

It was fun tho ^^ and because of the sparing with Amith im pretty sure i stand a better chance of beating Oz in 1 on 1 now for when i next fight him >:D

I want to kick ass ._.

Other news~

 Me and Maruk took down his WSNM, so gratz for getting ur WS and level 75 on Sam. A guide said two lvl 75s could take the monster down and while we did do it that was a damn hard fight! The mob hit hard and fast, plus it possessed a spooky resistance to enfeebs. Maruks Hp kept getting pretty low but he didn’t die, i came out of the fight with about 20 mp. close call! Although getting out of the Caves was harder then the fight! I had no Mp and we kept getting agro out of the blue, even with sneak. That was scary ._.

 OOO cute story too, my little 4 year old cousin was over for the day, shes never played or really seen a computer game so to her what was going on my laptop screen was just a TV show. I typed ‘/wave motion’ and told her to wave at Millions so she did, and then he waved back! She was stunned lol and kept waving to him every other minute, all i had to do was quickly press up and enter so hed wave back and she thought it was magic lol. I also showed her that he could move wherever she wanted etc. Then she noticed his sword, she instructed him to go fight something, i zoned him to the Thickets where she saw the spiders, ‘waaa’ she whimperd followed by the order to kill them! Millions started on the spider but i was too busy entertaining her to notice the Spiders had linked, when i looked back at the screen Millions stumbled and fell to the ground unconscious (doh back to 74!). My cousin stood shocked as Mill lay on ground, i needed an excuse…

‘…em, hes just tired… so hes… gone to sleep for abit.’ Well, lame excuse but as they were getting ready for bed i thought it might stick that he’d decided to go to sleep… in the leaves… the important thing is she bought it lol, though after 5 mins of him on the ground she began to question why he wouldn’t wake up ^^; Amith rased me later so all was well in the end as she saw him ‘wake up’ just before she went to bed ^^ (and i got my lvl back, yay)

ahhhh to be young :P

Old Friends return & Party time

 Given up on the Yagudo necklace front till i get some thf help, i decided id rather spend 1/2 term leveling up since i only ever want to party when i have the full day free.

 Fheonix was leveling his thief and i jumped on board as my level 18 cor :D i love corsair but i have to say im not sure what i should be doing in partys really, at the moment i sub whm and help heal, im trying to get into the routine of rolls on the mages and melee, i have no mage rolls so i tried to keep corsairs roll up on the mages and then Attack and Acc on the melee. The party didn’t start off great, couldn’t get any members, we ended up with something like thf, cor, whm, whm, pld and war. We were fighting and doing ok, but after an hour or so the whm and war left, then then party really got good! exp picked up and we chained worms like no body’s business, just shows less is more. A pattern seemed to come up, that id always bust when i doubled up on a 6, the next number was always a 6 o.O odd… apart from that i was pretty lucky. I ended on level 20 Corsair – Healers roll! Pretty soon l’ll be subbing rng or nin for cor and DDing, i cant wait.

[Stand back Fheonix! We do not know the power of gigantic worm!]

 After that party i took a break from FFXI, i think i had a nap :P when i got back i saw Codes name pop up on the ls :O! Code! hes been gone for months, nice to have him back, tho im sure it wont be for long ^^;

i was still in a party mood, wanting to level something. 33blm has been a problem for a while, makes me a gimp0, put my flag up and got a party. I dropped my band to get another, i only wanted to get lvl 34 and fast.

 i accepted the invite and noticed we had no whm <.< >.> hmm, but when i got to garbagehouse i was pleased to see we had two pl’s lol, so screw the whm! As ud prolly guess with the setup: nin, nin, drk, thf, rng, blm and two pls, the party was freeking awesome.

Woot! un-gimped blm! i can finally walk around with it not having to /anon and seek as /blm :D will make life alot easier. I also got Windy Ahty warp today, and in the course of speaking to the npcs to get it i noticed i have the Warp II quest active, so i think l’ll get blm to 40ish for bcnms and warp II ^^ After i leveld the party disbanded, got to escape too :D love it

In Ahty someone was shouting for a 60cap Ballista in Jugner, ive been meaning to do one for the past two years, and as this was certainly on i thought if go. I teled down to enter and then i thought id OP to bastok to get gear and OP back, but… damn the beastmen owned the outpost, so i was stuck as rdm/whm with no gear >.< i tried to get to sandy and get my gear as i thought it would be fastest but i missed the start ;_; I had some Jackass complaining to me because id signed up and not come for the fight, STFU! im the one that just lost 2k for the privilege of that XD

till next time balista …

:|

 News! Weissbrev aka Trooper/Pooper is back too :O Same thing as code, he’ll be gone in a month but l’ll enjoy it while it lasts. It was getting late now and i was just about to go beddie boos when trooper mentioned he was going to unlock Dragoon. Ive had this quest for a year now, i have the egg but at the time never got the CS to hatch it so put it in my MH and gave up. I wanted to give dragoon a go as i think i looks fun. We got together and teled all over the show doing the quest. It had an… interesting if not kinda lame story.. :/ but o well, my dragon mod made the CSs cool ^^

Fight time! Last time i tried this was a year ago with the ls:

aww i love old pics, memories. back then i couldn’t get in lol, i think only 2 or 3 did in the end. Today i could tho, and its uncapped >:D bye bye dragon

bog3.jpg

no time to test drg out tho… cuz… cuzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzz

When I woke up it was the next day ^^ and again i was ready to party! o.o idk what is it about the holidays, but its the only time i want to party.  

Seeking on rdm for ages! JPs dont seem to make partys, there were alot of people seeking including a pld and whm. Id have made one but ive no idea where to go, and to be honest, i couldnt be assed leading a party of JPs that cant understand me. Eventually a blu made one, so the set up was, Rdm, Whm, Pld, Blu, Thf and War. not bad ^^ we headed to Mamook and i was sooo slow as i kept forgetting things (like my staves which are always on me id sent to myself -.-;) i ran my little legs off and eventually got to camp.

They were acting weird, we were killing things asif we were looking for a camp/going to one. But we ended up back at the zone to Mamook where we started after about 20 mins, i didn’t quite know what to say. After the big circle we started to kill spiders, it was a moving camp switching between spider pops and it was pretty bad. The spiders didn’t chain and we kept resting when there was no need to. Normally id love it if people let the mages rest for mp when we were all out, but we were resting when there was no need.

it was odd, killing Tp burn mobs which give rather low exp but u chain them, yet, we wernt killing them fast so it was just bad exp. I stuck with it but when we rested for the 3rd time and every1s mp was only half down id had enough, i decided a while back that if a partys bad i was just gonna leave. We had such a good set up tho >.< so i asked [jumping to new area?] [camp]? [experience points] [slow].

[ideas]? came up from the leader >.>; hmmm, i have no idea, but somewheres got to be better. i jumped onto campsitarus.com but that didnt really help. I could see them all listing areas and saying they were full. Halvung camp up from one of the members and everyone seemed happy. We scooted off.

Oooo Mt. SoyHam. Its really nice looking here with the volcano in the distance, its cool the way the magma glows from so-far off. And the trolls, they’re the only mobs on the game that have sensible names! Hilltroll ‘Inster job here’ is how it works, and having Hilltrol Pladin and Hilltroll Monk made life so easy as i knew which to silence, rather then Momook ja Fliglabobulator and Mamoom Disconbobulator where i kinda guess which is the mage.

 bog1.jpg

[I have tonnes of nice screenys from that party, the landscape and the trolls make very interesting pics ^^ such a contrast with the players]

The party ended up going alot better then on the spiders, we started out kinda slow, those trolls take ages to kill with their high Def and Hp. But we got the hang of it and chained them eventually (and there was no more useless resting). The party functioned well, Whms tend to annoy me as they waste SO much mp, especially tarus. I dont know why whms dont seem to know how to manage mp, they go straight for the highest cure even if its not needed. really annoys me! Also why do most whms think its against the rules to rest for mp now they get refresh. *slaps self* end of rant, sorry!

bog2.jpg

Still it was nice, i used my empress and anny ring to get about 12k exp. So 30k till i level up :) Servers are down now so thats all for tonite!

 Ive also just found out that Podginator is coming back to ffxi :D Again same with code and pooper, i dont think he’ll stay for long, but we’ll see!

Three friends return for the three partys ive been in… hmm maybe after the next party Evasn will return? i can live in hope… Just been trying to look him up to contact him and tell him to come back lol, its harder then i thought it would be tho >.<! i know the city hes in and his name but not much comes up. l’ll keep trying tho.

RedMage Rules: A good rdm will keep enfeebs up throughout the battle, so try it if u can! That 15 mp slow could save on a few cures.

Playtime: Cant check, maintenance. coming soon!

222 to go.

I’m nearly better :D throat is really annoying now and feels weird to breathe but i think it’ll soon be over!

me-andy-and-dave1.jpg

First up 2day was G2 for Kreoger, a drg in the ls whos mad on soloing (G2 is the one with 3 mobs in Xarcabard). Last time i’d tried this it was to help someone i didn’t really know, as he was helping a friend or something. The outcome wasnt that great…

 ya see, we died right next to the mob, so i couldn’t reraise as it never despawns. A galka from their ls came to raise us, but in his 40s, he agro’d the mob and just died, made me laugh seeing him come round the corner and insantly die :P u’d think they’d mention it agros.  Everyone else HP’d while i fake d/c’d to try and get a raise the next day. Luckly Spankey came the next day and chainspelled me up then we ran like fuck :P ty for that Spankey!

Anyway, that was then, this is now. Since that horrible time SE had apparently lowered the mobs levels so me, Kroeger, Oz and Amith went to try. Though now i think about it, even if the levels hadn’t been lowered it would be damn hard to die with me(74rdm) Oz(75war) and Ami(74smn) there.

Turns out they were really easy, allot easier. Ami even swapped to drk for the last one. I also took some pretty pics, i love the icelands, the snow makes for such pretty pics. When its dark weather and there’s a purple glow it looks even better. On a side note, ive been wondering if i should swap the Xarcabard music for maybe ‘In the farplane glen’ from FFX-2 (the game may lack but that is a great bit of music) or ‘People of the Mountin’ from FFX -ie the Gagazet one. I’m just not sure if they fit, and i hear the Xarcabard music so little i kinda feel like i should listen to it when i do hear it.

I have too much time on my hands if im debating things like this lol, i should be filling that thought time with collage work.

back on topic, Gratz Kroeger

Next on the check list was Whm, now ive levelled up im a 74rdm/36whm and i dont like being anon D: so off i go! party i get! cure i do! exp i get! level up! yay!

kthnxbaiwhmtillineedurotherteles

now…

so now…

i said during half term id get utsusemi:ichi, so now… im gonna finally kill some Yagudos.. 

I set my hp as windy and went as rdm/blm so i could warp back to trade them. i figure its prolly faster then subbing thf and running there and back all the time… k i could bring a scroll of warp but i cant be bothered to level my thief from 10 to 15.

i don’t know how long i was doing it for, maybe longer then it felt, but i finished the night with about 30 necklace’s. They drop allot faster then i was expecting and i didn’t find it that boring. It gave me time to talk to the LS which i hadn’t had chance to all day since I’d been a whm in party. I wish there was something i could do to show my love for SM, i feel like there should be something… but i don’t know what. 

fight-2.jpg

Im not moving my HP or leaving windy till i get 250 necklaces, so they’ll be plenty more of the picture above to come!

Well maybe l’ll level blm or rdm, but farm mostly :P
