New place to call home. For a little.

Back to blogging! I missed the blogging world! I actually reading other people whereabouts, and posting the stupid stupid stuff I accomplish in game!

Me and Kerb decided to go through other nations missions and started with Bastok (because we are cheap, and it was 3d at the moment in conquest)
We are rank 8 right now, just missing 3 easy fights to finish everything! Playing with no OPs sucks! But at least I’m WHM and have access to all teles we need :D
Fights are so easy! We only got help for the cap 50 fight and duo’d everything else, using mostly the PLD-BLM or the BLM BLM combination.
Shadow Lord was kinda lol (PLD BLM) and next time we’re definitely going for BLMx2 meleeing it during its first form <.<;; Now more than ever since we got a new toy thanks to ZNM!

Melee mages! Got Mekki Shakki from Experimental Lamia. Kerb’s trigger dropped 2 staves! How lucky!
Also managed to try Earth grip, and it’s not definitely worth it!

I’m not saying it’s useless, but it’s not definitely a mandatory item. I’ll probably buy it since it’s not even 30k, and because I don’t really have inventory issues when I play BRD (only because I’m slacking it recently, not bringing -DMG and MND -yes, for stoneskin- gear with me! And because my AF2 is stored.)

Kerb pop’s are lucky, and got this ring also. I also got Aurum hands, some “decent” piece I’ll use on my lolmeleePLD, since I am NOT going to waste any gil on something that’s plain stupid, hence that’s why I’not buying any dusk armor piece. Since it gonna be something used only for campaign and not important stuff.

Salvage got us recently some nice satisfactions and little accomplishments. Group is now at a solid 10~ish people each run, I think we finally got this set working as it should.
Stuff keeps dropping (Usu legs, Morri coat and other stuff) and we are actually killing bosses.

4/5 on bosses drop! x.X Only missing legs, not like emoFomor gonna drop in Silversea anyway. I hate that area. I hate you Dekka. With love, fuck you. Macha not dropping either (aka: skipping or not doing those NMs to complete people pieces reaching bosses and everything)

I don’t know if it’s only us/my old set, but cuffs just doesn’t drop. Never ever. We got a DOUBLE drop last time. A fucking double drop, puppet kill. Puppet kill made also Usu feet drop once, and now I’m definitely a fan of PUP, and think its toy deserves the killshot. Kill Dekka next time pleese Satu!

Still regarding Salvage, I can’t really stop being emo and emo over it. Even if we’re eactually improving and have a solid group right now.
Why I do complain now? I’m tired of losing at least 5k exp because I pull to a group that went to god knows which room. Or people who forgot they learned Sleep spell and I get raped with no SJ. People pulling by their own initiative when I pop Jakko and I die. People complaining about lottings when I do waste hours to rearrange priorities each 2-3 weeks following attendance. People complaining why we do an area instead of another. People arguing about cells. People not reading log. Failing arra zerg all the time to pop rats.

Sorry for rants but last runs has been something beyond horrible to me, been tempted to HP multiple times. But I guess I should just stfu since we actually get drops and everyone is coming all the times w/o the need to beg them.

Back to old content stuff, Conquest! Windurst got somehow Ronfaure, and I managed to get supplies done before switching to Bastok. With this, I only miss Gustaberg OP, which it would definitely come handy since that region is so gay to reach, but at least I can reach Bastok since I’m WHM using the Teleport-Altep -> Escape trick~

About to fight our 4387539485th Odin. Me and Nep are doing our usual daily elf’ sacrifices in order to make Mbody and Abody drop respectively x.x;; Koenig cuirass looks definitely cool :3 And, despite what everyone says, I think it’s a nice piece! Will totally use that on stuff I really need HP! Like Dynamis and, Einherjar. Plus the pretty look! x.x;

Still no idea why I ended with pfeet. And I still have the cursed for legs in mog house! Only real piece of new abjs I’d want from Odin is Shadow coat, but I’m not really asking for it before I get Mbody!
Morgana chocker is awesome. Sold Ajari bead necklace (Morgana has less MND, but the MP boost compensates the lack of it :p) and Promise badge~
Next item I’m looking for is Ritter gorget. Then I’ll totally go for Delta earring (One more -Enmity than Heaven’s earring +1) and, as last, Kubira bead necklace. For DD WHM and PLD, because I am an idiot :3

Since now I’m doing Limbus regularly with Linkshell i get to gather coins faster, and got Loquacious :3-
I can’t really notice the fast cast, but the MP boost is not that bad. I’m not really a fan of MAX MP (I don’t have it even on SMN, I rather go for some -Enmity) but I felt like gimp without that!

Omega wednesday~ Gonna tank it! I went as PLD last time as well, but I’m an idiot and forgot to change my SUB and tanked it PLD/BLM till i died around 15% or so during some pod farming >.<;! But I guess that was some nice attempt :D!
Omega on BLM is just super boring (Nuke once in a while and wait for pods each ice age), and I’m still afraid to try it on WHM! And BRD is not really exciting, like in most events of this kind!

I should update my BLM equip thinghie on blog and add another job’s items soon! And make some kind of new template sometimes soon, keep saying this for long time now ~.~
Gonna teach Kerb how to use Wordpress/Manafont so he can start to use it soonish!

Bought a Ventrilo server for the linkshell and other uses (my Suikoden site and an upcoming CoP set), currently trying to set it up better! I’ll rarely talk because I’m retarded shy :p

Also wasted money on Tidal Talisman. Yes, I’m such a money waster!
Item looks actually nice and I could really wear it irl if it’s not huge. Had to make it getting delivered to Kerb’s place, since SE fails so hard and they are not sending this in Europe!

The ingame item is almost as win ad Numad Moogle hat, AoE teleports with different destinations depending where you use it! I wonder if it works only in cities…..

It probably will, sadly! And I’m also wondering on something seen on this movie on YouTube [link]… equipping this item will make you having this coat in game ? And no, I don’t read BG, so if anyone mentioned it there already I don’t know!

The whole look isn’t great at all, but I like having fashionable, and mostly, unique stuff. I really can’t wait to get the code and see if my thoughts are right! But I think that probably the talisman won’t affect your body piece to change at all, just came up with this since I’m bored, at work!
EDIT: Actually I’m an idiot, i was totally sure the Talisman was a neckpiece….. just noticed the [Body] tag int he picture I posted! Omg I’m so tired, HALP!

So, this is what you call HAXING

Scholar *still* has no love…I really need to get over it and start going to horrible places and solo, or maybe waiting for Sofo or Ultimatetaru to catch on me and go duo!
I only need something around level 50, after that I could attempt doing some campaign and leech from Kerb in sea and Uleguerande.

Helped Kogenta to get her Genkai 2 quest done. I already solo’d those 3 NMs (before nerf~) on SMN once, but this is totally another story. WHM/NIN. Also true that those three mobs are gimped now, but I would have killed them easy even before the change! Maybe with a support~
I should try killing more stuff as WHM melee, really having so much fun! Will probably do this again on AF quests and more genkais :3
And I still need to fight Maat on this job! Just lazy to farm the testimony >.<!

Totally stole this screenshot from Sofo, since I forgot to take one!
For last Salvage run, we decided to split up. Panoramix needed Usukane feet lvl15, and that means kill the stupid “reach floor in 30 min” frog.
Since we had 2 full parties we splitted, and I got to lead second group on a relaxed Bhaflau remnants farming run. Run that turned out super productive!

Just ignore NM’s name, having fun with DATs sometimes is w-i-n.
Got a total of 2 Marduk legs (gratz to Sofo and Magnumm!) and a pair of Morrigan hands; Pace is still haxing and he got those~
Best thing was the double drop on our third spider (popped …. 5 i think) and people did really an AWESOME job on our last Spider came up at 3%. Nothing out that tough :(

More PLD news <3!! About to get BQ ring soon (I hope before Sunday!) and Iron ram hands if I whore Campaign enough.
Now it’s kinda late and I’ll just make an awesome summary in-a-pic :3 (started this post two days ago, then got sick -again- and been home 2 days, resuming it at 3.30AM!)

*stares, drools and dies*
Did Odin few hours ago and yeah, mlegs dropped. Along with Mbody, that’s one of the items I’m craving most at the moment and I can actually get in short terms. I’d say, luckily there were no cursed up on AH, and asked Aviendha if she could synth a pair of me. Many “things never HQ” and such followed in /l. But HEY WTF, FIRST TIME I SEE A +1 (actually a -1 now!) CRAFTED FOR MYSELF! And I thought I brought bad luck.
Too bad I couldn’t uncurse, because SE decided to pick my fee money during night, when my CC service is down …..>.<!

Limbus dropped Apollyon mats I needed …..:o I had temenos one for long time! I had about 70 coins total, but I guess I’ll have to wait a lil more for my Loquacious Earring! (Yes, gimp mage w/o one yet, got Musical first!)

The equip icon may be a bit lol especially due the lack of white borders…….we are going to do JoL on Sunday and I’ll tank it too! Got some decent amount of MDB and Damage%- thingies for my PLD/RDM.
Iron ram Lance, NQ Kaman (sadly >.<;) Coral mail, Coral rings x2, Lamia Mantle +1 and Askar feet. Amina will lend me his coral legs+1, and I really really hope to get Iron ram hands! I can’t really wait to try this, been hyper all week!

I’m still shakin’ for the cursed -1, I need to sleep and relax! :D~

Finally, the EGG! And perspective of new job.

Always ending up with lot of stuff to talk about! Need to stop failing already and post more often (this is getting old, I know) …At work and really, really tired. Went to sleep at something like 5.30AM and woke up at 7.30 AM or so, not blaming some random taru because it’s my fault too :p
Totally gonna post more picture than actual test, because I’m not feeling well either (having very bad nausea since yesterday, hope it will be gone soon ; ;)

We finally did KS99 turtle. Didn’t have so many orbs because item wise is not really a good bc, egg is the only reason to do that and as for striders…might as well just camp em.
Kerb finally got his egg! And this means he’s completely done with Black Belt. I offered my KSs for the whole thing and one dropped on my run too, which I offered to Hannaoak since he camped a lot Aspi with us. And Selim got a 3d one! Congratulations people!

Still regarding Kerb and his MNK, we camped Oztroja NMs for a while. I TOTALLY hate camping shit, especially when re spawn is not well defined. Because I like to relax between “ints” and can do other stuff, like just chatting and/or drawing!
Nothing dropped yet, I wonder when those two stupid birds will put their items out :(

Rotten luck on Ix’Drk. This makes me…….. 1/1 on both DRG AND DRK. But I’m like 0/5 on Mnk >.<
Anyway, thanks ALOT to Amina for popping/camping this bitch. And congratulations to Falcoo for the other cape! We hax now :D
I really see good improvements using this piece of gear, I’m so happy I managed to get it. Now, since my virtue stones starts to finish and we’re out of HQ Aern organs, I guess me and Kerb are forced to be back killing more of them!

FINALLY NIN37. About time. Utsusemi:ni dropped off PCC bc (Thanks Michael for letting me use your orb!)~
Me and Kerb duo’d from lvl 19 till…26 or so. Then we joined Thaumboy and Chronus for some quick -Anniversary ring powered- exp! And got 37 in like 2-3 days. I’m so happy I’m done with this sub.
Now I’m working on RDM, and I’m 1/3 into 31. Was 24 last Friday!

Also helping its exp doing escort, Rivenworth and Mammet BC. Quick and fun stuff to do! Especially escort, I really like it! Sleeping 495744949 mob around you is lol, even if I’m little afraid to die or something in the end x.xxx But Kerb’s there too so I’m really ok.

Once I’ll be done with RDM, I’ll start my new job: Scholar! Really been undecided between 5, but after some toughts I picked Sch :p Why ?
First, the job on “selection” were DRG, BST, MNK, RDM and SCH.

• Dragoon. I’d LOVE to have that, it’s a powerful melee which some kind of little magic (hi wyvern!)
  But then again, who wants a DRG over a BLM, BRD, WHM, PLD leveled coming at events ? I won’t use it anywhere and it will make me emo.
• Beastmaster, kinda same of above. I also think about Salvage, who the heck wants a BST in salvage instead of a BLM or BRD ?
• Monk. I saw Kerb working SO HARD getting all his equipment, and only idea of killing Oztroja NMs, or Boroka, and camping BB items makes me sick. If I want to play mnk, I’ll just use his when he’s offline.
• Red Mage. I realized I don’t want a WHM clone. Same stuff+refresh. Hell no. Plus so many LVL2 merits to get, nothanks. Aaaaaaaaand I don’t want to level DRK subjob. I don’t want to chainstun ever……
• Scholar. Unique! Versatile in each situation. Can be very efficient as Healer, damage dealer, en-feebler and mage supporter. Plus I can make Kerb gasm with weather :P (and I can randomly leech from him once I get thunderstorm, which is lvl51) Also, i already have all required merits (capped elemental, almost done with Enfeebling) and will use both blm and whm gear. Quite smart, uh? :3

I lol’d on “Next job poll” results. On 25 votes, 8 voted BST, 8 RDM, 5 SCH and 4 MNK. Didn’t know the whole Beastmaster thing had this big fan pool! I want to know who those people are :D!

Finally done some limbus again. Apollyon tiem! Killed Kaiser Behemot! About time!
I noticed so much improvement since last time we’ve done NW. With like TONS of new merits i got and gear. Never got a single spell resisted (sleeps and binds too) and that greatly improved our killspeed. I’m so happy!
BLM and SMN items dropped, but sadly I already have Apollyon item, and SMN…..I just don’t care. Tossed it, lolSMN. Now I want Temenos one to drop >.< Really need to upgrade hands!

I found my new god in FFXI. THE HUEG CORN! I swear I want a thing like that IRL and be able to FIRE IV it.
Can’t imagine how much cool would be some popcorn rain, I know I’m quite retarded *_*;;; But whatever, it’s just me. Luv FFXI and this random nonsense. (And it’s ok, I’m mad, known fact)

Tried to save my macros on server to load ‘em on Xbox. And it works awesome! You need to press some weird combination on character selection to make it work (all I remember is, ctrl+alt+shift+B to save on pc, left stick and one of those upper buttons to load data on console)
Now, time to play some on my sofa, relaxing, with comfy environment! (mostly at merits or some easy going stuff)

Random stuff!

Got 2nd hax blm piece! So awesome during magic bursts tiems, and some +Dark magic never hurts :3!
Also, it’s the only piece of AF2 I really want/it’s worth to upgrade. I hope to be able to get the -1 sometimes x.x
Hax campaign exp as PLD. Tanking shit getting hit often is worth something! Need more Koenig for moar HP and bloodtanking. Please?

Oh and we killed LBC. We are really ok, getting more members. About time! But hate we’re randomly 6 people (inlcuded some botted Graeson) or so. But better than nothing!

Started a new drawing while ago. While there are STILL stuff that don’t look good, this is goin quite fast D:
Maybe will be able to finish it within a week or so! Kerb face looks so funny, it’s lovely!
Gonna scan the sketch sometimes today or tomorrow, and post it on my portfolio~

Sorry for my telegraphic post today, just didn’t want to skip any stuff but was also lazy to write >.<
So tired, need to sleep once i get home for lunch!

Where is love for BLMs? Nowhere..

Ewww update. SE keep’n killing BLM again, for real. Not that I cared so much till last update, but seriously it’s sad D: SCH getting T4s is something beyond fail, if we don’t get something new and unique (meh, besides AM2) we’ll probably end being teleport bitches <.<
Not that WHM got something cool. Teleports to past areas, yay. Nice coupling with D2 to the past. Excitement. <.<;

Well, at least I’m stupid enough to have fun with new /dances motions. And there is actually something good for one of my jobs.

Elemental Siphion is cool. Very.
I tried it this morning before running to work and I gladly drained 220~ish MP from Ice elemental on….Lightsday I think? Unfortunately I don’t have a Light ele yet. I was even like naked, since I just changed job and equipped some random stuff not Summoner related.
From what I’ve heard, Aspir rate is calculated by Summoning skill (<3 insane Marduk SMN skill+) and if the called elemental matches the current Vana’diel day.
Gonna try this properly equipped once I get home, can’t wait to see how much I can get! I wonder if elemental obis will help for this purpose…..? Probably not.

Anyway, still sad for BLM, damn you SE for being so hateful against this awesome job :(

Kerb is helping me getting some merits. Have also some potency and enfeebling already raised. Gah, I really hate meripos. Can’t really stand them D: So boring and……… so stressful on BRD. Never rest, never slow down, always have to run and run; pull this, sleep that, play that song, “omg where is my minuet!” and stuff like this.
God, I’m so going to make my PLD DD and merit with that instead.

PLD dinged 60 last sunday. Unfortunately I didn’t get any pic with me wearing that new shiny cute AF, but will do next time! I’m so cute! And getting 60 means I have to level my gimp war, it’s still 30, think I found how I’ll spend my first Emperor band charges :3

And even got my second PLD AF2 piece lol! It almost went freelot. Guess it’s a nice macropiece for Rampart, and I’ll probably wear my Assjammer fulltime anyway (grabbing stuff at low levels is win, since there is no way we’re going to claim a Fafnir sometimes soon D:)
Anyway happeh, getting pimped on this job also! Can’t wait for the signed chainsaw +1 (Macuhatl) at 65!

Helped Kerb getting Kotes from Boroka for his Monk. Since we do have a set you know.
Went 1/3, not really bad since this NM is not really a pain in the ass to camp nor kill.
Just a matter of Freeze “burn” with one or more parties of BLMs!
Got three torques and a couple of earrings too, kinda forgot who got what. Well, gratz to all of you anyway!

Salvage going on nicely. We actually get drops. And this makes me really happy, even if Dekka STILL hates me. And that’s why I renamed it to something like that:

Srsly. Hate this NM. But at least we got Skadi hands off gear NM, and Kerb won lot against Tirinai. Well, congratulations suft! Time to save gils for bloods with me! Need to gather around 1min, so can’t *still* buy a sorc, I need to upgrade my Morrigan cuffs!

Did a first serious attempt to boss, Long ArmedChariot. We were few people with not exactly the right jobs, kinda lacked on DMG but overall we fought really fine, even if we wiped. Had a botted WHM, me on BRD (while right now I have enough merits to do real serious damage, just lacking of Freeze II, but whatever D:)
Can’t wait to finally crush a boss with our current set up, and I guess it’s going to happen really soon! (And need 25s with all those drops!)

And finally, I managed to get my first Limbus item ^^

A big thank you to Kerb who gave me some of his coins to reach the amount of 75 pieces!
And, last Limbus was meh. Stuff on silver platter again, so lucky on portals, behemots not mating but… i failed. Lol, that’s when I’d like to insta delete my FFXI id and quit. I suck ; ;
We got BLM item as well so I guess next time We’ll do Temenos……… so much relieved.
Apollyon is better coin wise, but I still have some major difficulties doing Wyrm and Behe sometimes. Not like I don’t panic at all if an avatar pops on Temenos Ele’ tower, but we usually open time chest only.
Whatever! Next time will be better, I hope. BLM is so much stressful sometimes ;; /facepalm

Regarding site, I fixed both Gallery and Video page. Just lacking of some little font fixes. Still have to style the whole comment form, I admit I haven’t wrote a single CSS line for it. Guess I’ll do something tomorrow or so, but I want to finish the most important things within the end of week!
Super happy on how it turned out! After I finish this, gonna work on Kerb site, need to force him to set it up!

EDIT: Omg I want this!

If I don’t find any news sometimes soon I’m gonna spread my researches on JP sites or even ask GM <.<;
Wonder if I can get that even if I already had the whole wedding/ceremony, if not…… can I marry Kerberoz again? :D

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?
