Cute tiggers and epic fights!

Spent last weekend doing all new quests and getting telepoints in the past.
Well at least I’ve been busy a while with new stuff!

Manthra

Windurst cutscenes are cool. Besides little and cute yet presumptuos Ajido (<3), finally SE decided to put a Mantra in game o_o And let me tell you, those tiggers are even hottier than their female counterpart! Time for female DAT modders to have fun with them now :3

NewSpells

Meh :p Getting all scrolls was easy, but really time consuming. Got Pashhow and Meriphataud gate crystals while questing stuff.
Retrace is the most awesome spell ever. Besides Ice and Thunder spells of course. Just…………retracing people instead of D2 is awesome. Since BLM is like a warp bitch now :D I know, I’m so mean! Just watch you next time you ask me for a warp :>

Scitalis

Got some adventures in Grauberg <.<;
Me and Kerb are something like……….completely broke in the gil departments, due some fundings for Skadi hands (gratz <3) and wanted to try getting some money with new mobs/NMs or so.

We gave a try on Scitalis, a wyrm in and well…………… it failed so hard at start. I mean, couldn’t duo very well, went horribly. It has like perma Hundred Fists, and raped us twice or three times, then had to ask for some reinforcements and I even DC’d and died x.x;;

We ended up being in seven people but we actually nuked it down with spells; me Chron and Kerb. Obviously no drop.
Besides the HUEG amount of EXP loss (2 HPs and soooooo many R1s) and the overall mess it was really fun!
Are we going to camp this again? Mhhhhh…. maybe.

Diabolos

Dynamis Tavnazia >.< The whole run wasn’t *too* bad but we failed on repops due some MPK by a certain WHM wich his name starts with O… anyway, we all HP’d and tried at least to kill Diabolos.

We ended being with only 12 people, and definitely not everyone on the right jobs. A charm really fucked us and we wiped @1% ; ; If we only had one more DD or BLM we could have won that …….it still hurts me :(

Nep

<3 Nep.
He’s like my hueg WHM angel who always R3 me at events and stuff. Promised him a screenshot in the next post I would have wrote so…… here he is!
Thanks alot for all that EXP you made me save, because even Galkas can be awesome WHMs! Yayz!

Lazy to talk about Nyzul+Salvage but we got some luck recently :3
Ares body for Darkbrillance, Morrigan body for Tirinai and, like I said before, Skadi hands for Kerb! That’s something great, and really starting to think EU times are cursed (we usually go past midnight, so uhm…..guess.)

Regarding Nyzul, we reached floor 40 and this means: legs for everyone!

Goliard Legs

Lolpiece. It’s uhm………… completely useless ? But I guess it will do fine with the full look once I get the other goliard stuff :3 I really like that set, it’s so stilish! Same goes for Askar, wheee!

Started to DAT mod again. Guess I found a good teacher (*pointsatkerb*) showing me how HQ stuff works so….. here it is. My first real HQ piece all done by myself.

Mhhh. Errant/Mahatma slops.
Sorry, this one is currently not available to download, it will once I’ll finish the full set!
And no, I’m NOT porting this to other races, so, don’t ask please :3

Also working on HQ Igqira/Genie weskit, but it’s taking my whole life away D:
I almost finished the whole tatoo thing, and honestly it looks really cool!

Little preview! Very little!

Tatoo

Can’t wait to finish this, I’m like 1/4 on retexturing. Alpha channell will be a total pain, but whatever.

Product placement tiem!

Remember Asuka? The one who made me drawings and the official drawer of Abstract Gender? Here she is!
She made her own webcomic, make sure to pay her a visit!

Like I said already a billion of times, Asuka is really an awesome artist <3 And also my RL lover :* Love you girl!
So……… gogo, click and read!

And yay for insanely long posts <.<! Maint almost ended, time to get ready for some Adaman action! FOR GL.. FOR THE EGG!

Hi Jowah! I love your posts and your blog so much (I’m a new fan)! Congrats on getting the new warp/teleport spells! I still need to get them myself, but I can’t wait. Just starting to get into the whole campaign thing, though it seems harder after this last update… Last one I did, I kept dying from this bazooka thing. o.O

You seem to have fantastic Salvage lucks too! Do you have any secrets or tips for a talu swab like me? I tried /dancing when nms/bosses dies but it hasn’t worked too well for us yet. (I’m in LagSave with Jackalman, Etain, and Sakurakun on Fenrir! ^^)

I think your DATs are really cool and I can’t wait to see the finished Igqira set! Looks like orange/tan tattoo style? Good luck and thank you for all the fun updates and posts. <3 ^.^

salvage luck varies a lot @_@! Dekka is laughing at me. Cloudstah (one of our sac leaders) said that marduk shoes so far has a drop rate of 1/39 or something (2.56%). from what i remember when i talk to jowah a long time ago, her salvage surprising had a lot of mage gear drop; where as compared to us, we had mainly dd gear drop. but lately, we’ve been getting a equal amount. we’re at 91 completed pieces so far. Maiev (poor guy) just completed his first and second salvage gear back to back just recently. i think he was up to 110+ runs (~183h) w/out a single salvage piece completed =X! that is just crazy!!!!!!! anyone else would have emo-ed lol

We haven’t got a single marduk feet among 3 LS salv groups since Salvage release……
And till few ago we did Salv everyday.

When I tried going through the Inlet for one of the recall spells, I remember almost being eaten by the bombs after getting my scroll. ;o; One person died and then another did after I teleported out. T_T I felt sorry for them, but damn those Djinn are mean!

OOo thanks for link to that comic ^^

… and those slops look really good *_* How much time does it take for you to re-texture something?

Galka whms <3 The best whm I ever met in game was a galka ^^*

I really need to do more stuff in WOTG D; just been so busy ; ; And that manthra looks really nice :3 I always wished SE would add more race in game, but they probably won't make it playable ;/

For retexturing something………well obviousily depends of the model itself.
The slops took around 3~4ish while playing on ffxi also.
That counts DAT converting/hexing D:

Weskit is taking more and more time, think i'll hold on that and finish errant/mahatma set D;
