[djtickle]

Nice one fallows! You manged to get ur Hydra Character transfered then?

Sadley items you had in the AH would have been lost on transfer mate, is what old SE said.

Im planning on starting Thf so count me in for lvlin with you, got my canned food ready!

Any of your mates going to need a world pass if so post up and ill grab one tointe whilst im in Bastok for our mission.

Excellent. Cheers Tickle, one more space left for anyone else starting a new job.

Any of your mates going to need a world pass if so post up and ill grab one tointe whilst im in Bastok for our mission.

They've all picked up 360 retail... I think they're ok.

We're all local so after we've been playing for a few weeks we can meet up and go out for beers etc.. Coz we're geeks.

Just briefed Greg on jobs... We need a Warrior and a Monk. I recommend Monk Greg, if the Warrior ****s up it's bollocking time. I took so much **** off of basts for mis-timing provokes at the beginning it was unfair. Warrior is very enjoyable though... especially PLD/WAR

Hopefully, we can get through with minimal deaths. This will be the 9th time I've lvl'd from lvl.1 around Bastok. :/ I love this part of the game, it's so bloody simple compared to later on.

Can't wait for the Khazam key run... I hated things like that so bloody much that I actually miss them.

Any chance of us joining the NTSC LS?

It's the 'Seraph' server Greg. Make sure you start in Bastok. And don't be a Tarutaru if you're going to be a melee class :S Don't bother with being a Galka either if you think you're ever going to want to dabble with magic.

What time is Bastok 6-1 tonight? Might be out for about an hour from 7ish but if we're only doing 6-1 then it won't take long at all.

LOLz, what level is required/recommended for Rank 6?

[djtickle]

They've all picked up 360 retail... I think they're ok.

They will still need a world pass mate it doesnt let you choose when you start up. Ill grab one and post it tonite for you all.

The mission was down for 7pm. Im going to try and start gathering people from 6pm and getting them all to get up to fighting the NM. I need a small break at 9pm, but if you want to do part 2 as well im up for that as that is a NM fight as well.

It recommened 60 plus for the rank 6 missions dave. The next mission in Rank 5 were we got up to on hydra is a well good one as well btw.

Well some long FFXI sessions this past weekend.

I hit level 71 Bst and finally got to wear my Bison equipment (JSE).

Completed the Lebros Cavern Assault at last, was an extremely high tension thing near the end, very pleased to get the win on it.

Claimed the Lumberjack NM three times having spotted it unclaimed on Saturday, each time it gave us a good fight but unfortunately didn't drop the high ticket item, im logged at the spawn area ready for today though.

The other main thing from the weekend was obtaining a Hickory Shield, it took alot of farming to get the ingredients and took two attempts to successfully synth.

Which brings me onto Gration, a powerful BLM Giga NM in Miseaurex Coast, the hickory shield spawns this NM and the NM can drop the Tatami Shield level 72 Def 9, Strengh 5, Evasion 3.

I am in tthe process of co-ordinating a LS team up with Ytt's LS, the guys who teamed up with us for Hakutaku.

Its likely to be in a few weeks time, giving time to farm ingredients and prepare the members.

If you can help on the NM please let me know so I can get an idea of numbers.

As for Divine Might I really want to do it Rare so count me in.

Maybe if more members are needed we can arrange something again with Ytt as we need full alliance 70+ ?

Ok Wedge, but I think you?re misunderstanding slightly.

ZM13 is a series of 5 battles, each against a solo Ark Angel. These battles are limited to 6 man parties.

Divine Might is a separate quest where you can enter the battle with an alliance and have to battle all 5 Ark Angels at the same time. Completing this gives you a choice of 1 of 5 earrings (I want the Suppanomimi which has a Enhances ?Dual Wield? effect before I level to 75). Also if you beat Divine Might it is classed as defeating the Ark Angels so you are also classed as clearing ZM13.

However, I know I spoke with Tobal and Apa about tackling the solo battles before doing Divine Might as a kind of test run before the big thing.

That is what my earlier post was asking.

[mikewl]

Im up for doing both those Rare. wasn't too sure what the differences were but doing both seems best.

Well its time for us to face Promyvion-Vhazl and I've started the research...

First action for us is for everyone to get all 3 anima as this is looking like being one heck of a journey. Once we have all got 3 anima then we need to set up a time for the run, which looking at what needs to be done will take about 4 hours to get to the spire and then another 30 mins for the final BC assuming a win first time.

The rough outline of the mission is
* Their are 5 floors, movement up is via MRs as in previous promies
* We Fight an NM on floors 3, 4 and 5
* Floor 3 is a version of the Dem boss
* Floor 4 is a version of the Mea boss
* Floor 5 is a version of the Holla boss
* Final BC is a fight against all 3 NMs one after another

As you can see much to do!

I still need 2k on my BLM so a farming or combined farming/ENM will suit me just fine. Any nights except Friday and maybe Saturday for me...

Good grief, that's just silly.

I've just realised that we are going to be lacking the extra oomph we had for the original promyvions - me & tal are going to have to go BLM + RDM as opposed to SMN + BLM. I guess we originally did it on the 'hard version' before they changed things, so maybe we'll be alright. If it's higher level it should be a different ballgame anyway.

If we're not doing ENMs maybe we could split the farming into groups of three and make use of our NPCs... I'd rather do ENMs though.

Indeed, fortunately RDM is a much better Lv50 job than it is Lv30... Having a SMN would indeed be nice mind, although I guess Mos will need to be on WHM duties.

[Darwock]

Looking at the tasks agan I'm not sure summoner would suit this one anyway, a one shot weapon isn't going to be much use on a prolonged boss rush like this. At least with Freeze I can keep using it as long as I have the MP.

Divine Might

I really want do get the Divine Might battle done, but i have alot of work to do before i'm ready for that. First of all i'd need to get my Thf or Rng up to 70+, and 2nd of all i'd need to get up that stage of the ZM's (something i really need to do anyway). But if this is something that isn't gonna happen for a while i can probably pull that off.
