Final Fantasy XI Then...

****ING TITTYMASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've managed to recover my character although SE won't transfer him to Seraph. ft: ft: ft: ft: ft:

They said it's totally impossible to transfer characters across servers. So I told them to stuff it.

There's no way it's impossible, they're bull****ting.

****ing lvl.1 - Rank 1. I'm not ****ing doing all that **** again, especially when I have a Rank 5 on another server.

I'm ****ing fuming. It'd be better if my old character had been deleted, there's no way I'm going through all that bollocks again when I have a stocked up character on another server. He's even already kitted out with tons of early WHM gear and spells from when I lvl'd WHM for my white magic pally boost.

-------------------

On the other hand, I could just play on Dolphin and get my 3 other RL friends to start up on there.

The bomb ash quest is somewhat obtuse but at least its nice and quick, bombs always seem to drop at least 1 so it's done nice and quick.

Is anyone interested in going after a Den of Rancor coffer key or 2, I want to finish up the maps I need and that one is being anoying. Would be interested in farming one up when I get in if folks are free.

[Tsingtao]

Afraid I won't be able to make ENM / Anima farming alter somethings come up. I'll sort my fear out solo!

Take it you missed the world migration when they closed Hydra, they never adn I mean never migrate between servers unless there's an event and I've only seen 2 in 2 years.

Even in those instances, it's only a case of being given the option to migrate from your current server to a new one. Apart from the recent Beta character migration I don't think they've ever given the choice to migrate from one current server to another current server.

SOOOO CLOSE!

We busted the imperial agent out of its hatch with ~30 seconds left, and the rune of released popped nearby but we had no clue where.

On that attempt the NPC came out of the 2nd pot hatch, saerik never moved for attacks and kept utsusemi up.. sometimes it hit sometimes it didn't but we all used weak weapons and got lots of firespits.

Morning...

I've not got all 3 anima and just need to get meds and I'm ready to go for Promyvion-Vahzl. One thing I've found mention of which would be very useful is that the bosses on each level act as minisave points. So after you've killed them you can reenter Vahzl on that floor. If thats the case will make life much simpler should things go badly wrong.

[talizker]

There was no ENM or farming last night so i'm still at 1 anima. I won't be on tonight but should be tomorrow, although it may be a little later than normal. Not sure that this is going to give me enough time to be ready for Sunday unfortunately ;_;

Good to hear that we can at least rule out that stupid run out of the way theory but at the same time are not any closer to finding the secret (if there even is one?)

Obviously I can't speak for the final run but in the 2 I did last night I can confirm the following.

I can fully evade (i.e. not shadow block) a TP move and have it still not target the Dilapidated Gate. I evaded Somersault Kick, Forceful Blow and Stave Toss and they simply missed me (Rarehero evaded the atack). I never evaded a Firespit.

There was 1 instance where the WHM type used a Stave Toss and it targeted the Dilapidated Gate and it missed the gate (highly annoying).

Stave Toss damage on the Dilapidated Gate is much greater than Firespit (Firespit seemed to average aroun 70 damage on it).

I want to obviously clear this but my ninja tool stacks are getting low so I am dedicating my time now to building those up so will need a bit of farming which means I should probably stay out of Assault for a few evenings.

[Darwock]

Well we've all blown all 3 tags so it's going to take a few days to get back to full strength anyway.

I'm also still at 1 anima, got the promyvion investigation to do with my NPC which will hopefully get me 1 more - it's not very safe for me to solo wanderers as a BLM but I can try on RDM and see if it's any better,

[talizker]

Its much easier with 2 people D. RDM30 doesn't make the best solo machine in the world i'm afriad...

I see that the OST for ToAU is out in Japan, along with the FFXII OST. I wish Apple could get them on iTunes on the release date /fume.

[djtickle]

What time does the window open for our silly 0 out of 6 LS NM in Batallia Downs ?

Managed to sell my Manequine Head last night too, so for the first time ever ive hit the 900k mark wooo! Bring on 1mil! Hauby is down to 5 mil atm, so might carry on extreme farming to see if i can get one

Im missing out on all this assault so i plan on gettin the last 3 points this weekend.

On another point, Fallows has landed. /welcome

I thought you would still be online this morning when I checked my AH dave at least lvl 20 kweh

[Tsingtao]

Didn't think soloing the mobs was to bad, as PLD asa long as I drop decent food I'm good for 4 - 5 wanderers before each rest. I'd go as RDM/NIN for soloing and eat meat, sure you'd see things wiork quite well on that. Utsusemi really is a marvelous thing!

Other alternative is bind nuke on BLM they're only EP level 1, NPC budy does make it easier. On PLD paired with attacker I can kill my 20 mobs without rests if I take a couple of yags with me

[Darwock]

I'm talking from experience, the empty mobs are not good for BLMs to solo - I tried it for the original promyvions and could never farm for long before I'd get killed and have to make the trip all the way back again. Bind doesnt stick for the 45 seconds needed to recast, even on the easy preys. With my NPC I'm sure i'll be fine but I think I can only do that in one crag.

Also I can't go RDM/NIN as I only have NIN 10 and sold all my ninjutsu scrolls as I have zero interest in ever taking it further.

Just spotted I need to figure a winning strategy out for Mamool Ja as soon as, because my STR+3, Acc+4 parachute pants come from there and I'd need 20000 points for them.
