Deadtaru.

Been totally lazy and din’t post anything yet, despite I had all pictures ready and some of them even uploaded for some days x_x
I’m just a bit tired! And actually pretending to work for real when I’m at office :v

Question of the day: Do all male taru BLMs come “embedded” with Kerb’ hairstyle?
Everytime I turn I find another one, it’s scary D;
(And half of them are bonecrafters, WTF!)

Last Sunday we did JoL for the sole purpose to pop Absolute Virtue and test out some theories. We totally used another strat for the whole thing, but I’m not going into details because I don’t actually know If i have to keep this secret D:

Anyway! Absolute Virtue popped and we started playing with it. Or I would say, it started playing with us.

We wiped around five times, but overall all the attempts were not *that* bad. The problem is, people fucking around with OUR AV, their wynavs, and claiming stuff around to help fucking us D:

This time was way way way more exciting and funnier than last time, I hope someone will make a real progress regarding this NM. I love when there is *real* hard stuff like AV.

I kept the thing spawned the whole time between wipes singing Hymnus with Mekaia and Selim’s mules as lvl 1 BST.
/pcmd add macro, sing, make em suicide, redo till ally has been restored.

This also means I didn’t play in the main ally till the last two attempts when some BRD went to sleep, since actually the Hymnus work is way more stressful than it seems!
Jowah likes to do those dirty tiring unique jobs :3
And fortunately, for god sake, this time I didn’t lost 50k EXP like I did in our last attempt!

Time to go back farming sea triggers, and get more and more JoL pops.
Oh and, Novio+Novia dropped off it :3

Keep having fun with BLM. But I admit I’m having some bad luck with it.
Multiple deaths followed by lot of R1s and even 2-3 HPs. This is not good. And I left my character LVL74 with 4k tnl :(
But I think Kerb got my 75 back this night, <3! :D

Multiple R1 came mostly from Limbus while doing Apollyon, me and Kerb even almost killed Behemot!

That was kinda depressing, I had no MP, Kerb died and had like 30 secs left D:
Drained it when it was at 3%, hoping it was enough to kill it, but it wasnt ><

We got fucked on time because Behemots were literally mating and couldnt pull em at all. A failed pull attempt made us wipe and lose a good 5~ ish mins at least, mins that would have been useful to clear NW Apollyon D:
Anyway, I’m like 25ish coins short for musical earring, this means another run or two :3

This gonna be better no doubt next time. We made another strat and it will work 200% better andwill be 400% more productive/damaging.
/cant wait :>

Still regarding BLM, I got pimped and got some stuff, and most of all, a satisfaction kill!

Obviousily, got some help for organ farming ;< (guess from who? lol.) and right now I’m only 3 Hmpede short for my last obi, the Thunder one. Then I guess I’m done with this kind of items (Have already light, dark and Relaxing earring~)

Got 2nd Bob’d thingy, really doubt I’ll make any use of the robe before 2012, unlike the crown wich may actually happen!

And for Bahamut, I’m so happy because I really did some decent damage comparing my spells to Kerb’s (we were the only two BLMs, and that was B1)
Gratz to Mallo, Matix, Hakkenshi and others for the fight done!

(Gorgeus screenshot stolen from Kerb :3)

We’re almost done on 9/9 for our third Odin fight.
If I remember correctly, we lacking only last T3 clear and we will be able to fight that guy again. I’m a bit sad because I won’t be able to play as WHM due lag/lolUMTS.
Playing BRD doesn’t look that exciting, I just hope I’ll be allowed to come as SMN :(
That job is getting rusty, haven’t fought any Tiamat/Khimaira for ages and last Vrtra attempt was a TP burn! My Carby is ronery!

Got the most awesome BLM cape ever <3
Here it goes my 2nd Einherjar item! Next one gonna be MND one, and with that I can definitely sell Prism cape~
Morgana Choker is appealing too, but I’ll keep sticking with my lolAjari Bead Necklace :3

Finally Kerb got his Bonecraft Signboard!
Congratulations, it’s so damn awesome and good looking! I want one too! I wonder how other ones looks like!

This also means I can start raping his GPs and buying HQ crystals :O
I have a little list of stuff I’d really like to HQ and have em signed:

• Genie Tiara
• Genie Weskit (Big amount of wasted money INC)
• Macuahuitl +1 (Easy stuff really)
• Nereid Ring (0/3x and counting :<)

I’d like Genie Lappa too but the Megalobugard Tusk costs like a lung D;
And actually got my first pair of Lappas few days ago, I’ve been a gimpy BLM with no JSE legs at all, due the tusk! Om, I suck I know!
But after some failed binds at Mammet ENM, I decided to get one and delay again the upcoming Sorcerer’s Ring :\
Hopefully, if my Sha’ir feet sells (stupid people bojackn’ AH price) and we get BOMB drop on Brothers bc, I’ll be veeeeery close to be able to buy it!
But then again, I utterly suck, merits where. /selfstab

PLD almost 55! Started leveling it again! Gonna getmy level today or even 56 if possible!
But I still need to open coffer in Garlaige D: Any help pwetty please?

Recent Events in Pictures.

!Epic~

After a Linkshell merit party, we decided to check if lolHydra was up. And as usual, here it was <.<!
Thanks to boredom, we tried to kill it with a 6-man squad, and actually succeed in it~ and the best thing (or worst) is that I was the White Mage of the situation :x
Heads were kinda having fun with us, since they came up on one percent also, but nothing went wrong (beside the death of one member during midfight D:) and finished it with ease.
Shitty drops btw, what a pity :(

I don’t really have any exciting things to talk about. Sunday event was three Kirins run and I think I did a nice work ….even if I should practice more with the /assist command. Last run went better since now I’m more used with it.
And of course all of us died countless times (as for me, oneshots go!) and that thing is still nasty regarding lolDrops. I got a Kirin’s Pole for some stoneskin godness, and then I decided to make a better macro for it with +MND equipment.
Almost +50MND, I ABSOLUTELY need blessed hands. But I bought templar mace for 200k and now I’m broken again D:!

I’ve started crafting again. No new fancy crafts, just Cooking. Managed to get lvl 33->36 in a couple of days.
I am planning my cooking sessions slowly but very well, in order to get some money from my crafts. I will sticks with Jack-o-lantern till next level, then I’ll switch with some Melon Juices till 40, then I’ll better go fish and make some fish broths.
I sooo want culinarian apron, but I kinda lack on guild points :(

I haven’t really meritted this week end. I need to level BLM to 37 as soon as possible, and reached almost lvl35 in one day (started @30 and few exp)…hope to put an end in the next exp session. BLM is pain. But I’ll eventally level it someday to 75 in a far future :p (Kerb is like “omg exp blmmmmm is funnnnnn”)
After that I’m going to get other merits and cap something (probably -bar effect or cure recast) and then I need to 37 NIN as well. For better BRD pulls and a more safer WHM on certain HNMs/BCs.
Hope to see it realized soon!

Equip, Sky, and a Cook.

I’ve been quite busy lately….playing Final Fantasy XI. Actually i haven’t post a single thing before coz I didn’t work. (Yes you bet, all my posts are written from work xD)

I recently renewed all my equip. I decided to sacrifice my HPs (and being a taru BRD makes it a Incredibly Tough decision :S) to convert them in MP. Now with Rolanberries I have more than 300 mana points, and that’s so good^^ I can support party a little more.
I bought a lot of new things too: Elegant Shield, Rapier, Jester Cape and two HP>MP rings as I said. Plus I got the Star Necklace from S.O.B.’ quests^^

Still regarding equip, Draken bought me the Opaline dress. I’m so happy to have this long sought item ;_; I really can’t wait to get both legs and shoes!
Thanks Draken!

But most important thing…..I have sky access. Done almost all the ZM in those days, I finally can enter Tu’Lia region.
I went there only for exploring purposes, I forgot to take an Instant Warp scroll and couldn’t find the way to get home, and I accidentally came across TT Ark Angel BC. Tought “Why not, at least I can make 2k exp fast”.
Yes, went there and got killed by him.

I hope to clear “Full Moon Fountain” Mission too. The fact it’s only opened to Windurstian sucks a little.

And yesterday i started to leveling cooking again; I’m currently level 26.4, today I’m going to hit 30 and make a signed Love Chocolate for Michael^^!

Sorry If i wrote alot and did not post any pic, I’ll be sure to do it next time I post, and yeah, I have to update my screenshot’s gallery too xD!

Edit: Actually Michael can post from now on. I hope to see something written by him xD
