Mmmmm Long weekendy-goodness..

I tried Einherjar on Saturday, it was.... Interesting.

We did the Ghoul one, it was crazy. Ingram didn' t tell anyone to bring poison potions, so we all got slept in the first few seconds. It's pretty tricky, we only went with 20 people though. We ran out of time in the end but we only had about four of them left to kirr, so I think for a first run, we did pretty well. And I didnt die!!

BCNM Madness:
I did Operation Desert Swarm twice this weekend, first time with Sonnia (War) Enishi (Nin) Shokora (Brd) Thorsvald (Pld) Eldoras (Rdm) and me as (Whm). My first time doing this one, I was so scared..... We used five orbs as Shoko doesn't have any KS but we needed her Lullaby talents so she came along to help.
But we farkin pwnt it. And got a Damascene Cloth, a Venemous Claw, four Orichalcum Ingots, and a Serket Ring!! About 2mil worth of drops there, Eni and I sold everything but the Serket Ring, with out that, it came to 1.3mil... But some bastard is undercutting me on the ring, it was 900k, then 850k, then 800k, then 760k, then 720k, then 719k.... It makes me die a little inside after each price cut. I'm going to have to give it away soon. Hell, soon I'll be able to buy it :\ Hope it sells soon, need to pay the LS^^

Bloody undercutters.

Second run I did with me as (Whm), Shokora as (Brd), Macixc as (Rdm), Demented as (Pld), Tidbit as (Mnk) and Mjgone as (Mnk), we did really well too, but drops werent as good. Off five orbs we got a Damascene cloth and an Orichalcum ingot, as well as a bunch of synth material. Sold it all within an hour and got about 600k for it.

Ive decided BCNMs are tasty.

Im planning on organising a ISNM run soon, I did one before with CielBleu and was really successful, own drops though, I lucked out and got one good drop, I cant remember what it was now, but the others got some nice ones. The fight was difficult, even with Ingram going as PLD, but I'm hoping we can do well enough to defeat it. I did the one called "Compliments to the Chef", its basically a big catfish that spams Virus/Paralyze/Bind(or something that needs Erase) its annoying and I was spamming macros from start to finish. I think we need WHM RDM a good tank, maybe a BLM and 2 DD's. We pretty much don't have many regulars that are BLM's in our LS, we have a couple but they aren't on often enough to count on them to join, unless they happen to be logged in. That's why Eni and I are duo'ing our BLM's, so we can do things like Under Observation and such like.

There are 2 other ISNMs that are uncapped, all look tricky, but with a bit of thought, planning and practise I think we might pull it off.

Hmm what else did we do... We merited a bit in King Ranperre's tomb, we had me WHM, Sonnia MNK, Mjgone MNK, Chanel WAR, Draako PLD, and Bluvion MNK. It was realllllllllllllllly difficult with out another mage, as I was on healing duty, haste duty, and Banish duty. Draako needed MP to cure for hate, so I had to banish, throw the odd haste, but mostly cure the monks that kept getting paralzed :\ I wouldn't reccomend this camp without a refresher. Chanel switched out for Macixc RDM it went a bit more smoothly after that. After an hour or so there I had to go do Assault, I just got T3 Superior Private or what ever its called, so did a Tier 3 Periqia assault. The one that you have to find the prisoner. Yeah, was easy. Ingram PLD Alexier RDM (from CielBleu, not TheRisingSun) and me as WHM. We just ran around, following Ingram and he beat down a few chigoes, we found a few prisoners, and had to run past a zombie to get to the chest and ported out as it started beating on Ingram. Fun times.


Then I levelled PLD a bit, @400 to LV14 its quite fun. Not so fun when the nooby warrriors AND MONKS!!!!!!!!!!!!wtf provoke the mob off me. I think I'm doing pretty well so far. Only one party wipe thats cause the puller pulled an IT++crab that was quite obviously out to get us. I hit my RR scroll just before I died so it looked very funny when I was crouching near a pile of dead bodies. I laughed a little. The white mage "disconnected" and the others got raised but I was very tired and needed to sleep for my monster 12 hour shift today.

We have Dynamis-Jeuno tonight.... I'm hoping my AF2 WHM pants drop. I probably won't use my AF2 much, but I still really want it lol. Hey, it's free^^ Not like salvage gear.... *glares at SE*

Well at least I'm starting to save up for it now, going to try think up some more crazy money making schemes as I only have about 40KS left and about 70BS. Planning to do Amphibian Assault BCNM60 I have done that before, it drops some shiny torques and ores. I got crap all last time, but I notoriously have bad luck when I lot on things and trade orbs. Come on, I lotted 26 for the Damascene cloth last night. It was ok cause I was the quartermaster and treasurer. But still!!

Oh and Shokora wants to do Hostile Herbivores BCNM50 soon so I'm going to help her out. I wont have any seals but I dont mind helping her, she helped out with ODS. She wants the Minstrel's ring badly. We'll need a WHM, 2x RDM, 2xNIN and a DRK maybe. Lots to think about and do.

Anyway, that's it for now, I should go back and do some work........ I am at work, after all.

Toodles~
