Final Fantasy XI Then...

[Darwock]

These drop off Corse mobs which are BST type and are around lvl67 but should not be underestimated as they can charm PT members

I read about these in the tribune many moons ago, been dying to see them in action ever since. I suppose me at level 60 is too low to be any use for the sleeping?

Daragon I updated the list of needs with your name

Darwock ? I honestly don?t know how hard it will be to sleep should the need arise. I know Talizker is coming who I think is 61 so I would think you coming wouldn?t be an issue. Like I said I?m thinking safety in numbers. Apathye is a must though as him being lvl75 means he has Teleport-Mea on his /whm so he can port us out if things go awry. Although like yourself, part of me is just interested in seeing what it?s like to be charmed.

Man my head and ears are pounding after last nights assault on my senses by Dragonforce and Edguy at Nottingham Rock City. Edguy were superb as always. Dragonforce were insanely loud and fast, played an amazing set and gave an outstanding performance although sound wise it was a little dissapointing with much of the usually oustanding vocals being lost in a sea of noise...

The main plan for this week is get to the same point as Tsing and Tobal for the Sleepga quest which should hopefully not take too long...

Of the things mentioned above by Tsing and Rare then I am up for:

- Return to Phomiunia Aquaducts for Balloon Cloth, Map, NM and getting those last Subligars etc. Will be RDM/BLM this time for an extra ES.

- BCNM20 runs. Can do one or both of these.

- Attohwa Chasm for Iolite and quest (if I have it open).

Darwock, you still want to help us fight Corse in Atohwa Chasm?

I spoke with Apa and Tal last night and we are going to attempt tonight, hopefully starting at around 8:30pm.

I think it will just be the 4 of us and I don?t know how hard it will be.

Sea Horror came on board our ship from Windy to Selbina last night - went downstairs and wiped everyone out.

I then died another 4 times last night - meaning I ended up with less EXP than when I started.

Maybe this will make you feel better...

Tal gets killed by the Sea Horror...




Many levels later, Tal (with a little help from Rare and Tsing) gets revenge on the Sea Horror...

[Tobal]

Indeed, getting killed by the sea horror is a rights of passage! Feel proud Sea Horror gets everyone at least once.

Hmmm decisions, how is the rest of the week shaping up? If I go tonight I'll have to watch the battlestar galactica repeat on thursday - if it's a choice between missing sleepga II/aqueducts stuff or this, I'd rather miss this (since I'm only curious).

Are we likely to do anything on thursday??

[Tsingtao]

I think the Aquaducts would be best for me on a non-school night, so I'd suggest Friday.

I think I might come along as well, see how things go but if I remember the iolite is worth quite a bit and its always good to have a play around somewhere new. Think the HQ antilon stuff is worth quite a bit as well.

Last night was another landmark in the life of Karyn (my NPC), dinged 41 and got weapon upgrade 3 completed to boot. She's starting to get quite handy these days, hope to hit 45 by the weekend with her and 50 inside the next 2 weeks. I think this will finally give me some solo options as a PLD once I get her up to around 60. Yay NPC!

I would like to go do the mannequin BC if anyone has any time before this to get one run completed. Haubie fund now at 4.5 million and climbing!

In addition been looking at the optical hat, Meric and I are going to start farming our eyes over the coming weeks if anyone else is interested let me know. I know rare has his cluster already so hopefully we can go do 3 runs and get everyones hats in one evening, be a long one but rewarding. Maat is so going to feel the fury for beating me first time, oHat and Haubie are the beginning let me hear those suggestions for the follwoing...

Hands - No idea have RSE gloves?
Legs - No idea?
Feet - Was thinking bounding boots, have to camp them
Rings - Was thinking STR +3 + a venerer as I have them
Earings - Was thinking spike earrings
Back - No idea
Waist - No idea (maybe life belt)

Oh and last but not least been accepted into Dynacore hope to see some f you n the EU runs.

Back is easy ? Anemet Mantle

For legs, maybe R.K. Breeches?

This is assuming you are talking about a DD build of course/

[Tsingtao]

Total DD build for PLD, looking for upping my soloing power as well. Its good that I can fight forever but not efficient for making gil. Like I say my new solo build will be PLD/NIN for shadows and dual wield my base def should make me tough enough and with the upped kill speeds should increase my gil making potential lots.

Obviously its first use mind will be to pull the old mans head off.

Can't do before hand (not least as I'm logged out at Atohwa Chasm) but can do afterwards or tomorrow evening.

[Tobal]

There's not much point in farming with out Thf main or Thf sub. What you should work on is your great sword skill being capped out, and some attack/eva gear,i think Pld can also equip the muscle belt which will give Regen, useful for none stop farming. Plus SA+gswd ws would be quite damaging.

[dataDave]

I try reading some of these posts but it all goes WAAY over my head. LOL.

I'll just keep prodding in with my newb stories for you all to laugh at.

[C']

You should try and get either of these beauties. Ascalon especially seems custom built for a PLD wanting to do some extra damage.





Ascalon also has the benefit of looking ?****ing Cool?+1
