What time did Steelface go down? He may be worth a visit tonight.

Well another night and another x2 fails! Im not 0/5 on Mea. BUT.....

First time i took control of the group, got everyone to have hp,mp regen and hi pots.

We got into the BC and were kickin ass and after moments had abou 1/4 of its life gone and then one of our ninjas DC'd. It was like OMG! We carried on, and got it down to 50% and all 2 hour'd. It was still going well and we got him right down to the bone and he AoE'd three times in a row and wiped us all out. :/

So i headed back to Jeuno to get together another group. Got together another group, all got meds etc again and Anima. Headed to the BC this time went much better but he killed us all again, even after reraises. Again this time he had nothing left 1 or 2 hits would have killed him. Gutted :/

So headed bk to mea and farmed Anima ready for another bash tonite, as i beleive Kupo/Calad fanies ago tonite.

With this being the hardest one ill be glad now to get it out the way, but still not fed up with it even though im dieing alot. Im loving every min of it, its great. The only thing thats abit of a pain is the lvl cap.

I can feel a Mea = Win later!

Will have to get Kupo some Anima later.

and crap load of gil for CCB's there 250k for 30secs of stun on the FF7 Weapons, i think if we all buy 1 each (should only take 1 farming session to earn the gill or a couple enm's?).

The besieged ended at 2am and that's when Zavala left to go help Daragon, so you'll be looking at a late night.

I would like the main goal to be finish COP, but we into a slight problem of tali and darwock being unlevelled, and maybe Tsing for tanking purposes on the final boss uncapped bits. As for Tenzen fight(last before access to sea) is the first uncapped BC but I think we can just skin the teeth if tali can get 65.

Probably not interested if its that late, if it went down at that time he's a 21 - 24 hour pop.

The CCB polymer pumps we can farm up, they are got by trading all 3 chips to the mithra in neptunes spire in lower jueno. We'll need 6 for the run and I would suggest we need a dry trial where we go in and just get a feel for that BC. It's an uber one, really really uber...

Alternative a tobal says is to raise 1.5 million for the party, I'd say thats pretty doable. Couple of options spring to mind. Straight farming should net us that in about 4 hours, we could try doing a divide and conquer on NMs but that could net us nothing. Always a tough call.

Don't worry about my level tobal I'll get myself to the right level in a timely manner. @900 to 71 at the moment and I'll press on from there soon, World cup is somewhat restricting my play time right now

Once we've completed CoP are we going to press on with the Zilarts to completion?

How about some of the money drop ENM's?

We could do the Pso Xja, Monarch Linn ENM's and probably net 500k +

even if we had to make up the rest that would be a nice start.

plus a bit of exp for Tal.

At this stage I am looking to get at least one level a week (currently @9000 > Lv63) so Lv65 should come round fairly easily - aiming for next weekend 24/6. I have no idea how long 65-75 is going to take and if a level a week (2-3 parties) is doable in the 70's given a 9-10pm evening start (and the fact that recently I have been tired as hell when midnight comes around).

D should be ok, he's Lv68 and rising rapidly - asume the plan is to try for Lv75 before he leaves? I would hate to have to drop out of the CoP group but if you guys need to go on without me then I won't let my level effect the group result.

**Tobal** · 14-06-2006, 11:25

get to 70 ^^, luckly you being a Rdm parties won't be hard to find.

I hadn't set my sights much higher than 70, I really don't see 75 being do-able in the time left. Especially when you factor in that I need to sell/rent my flat (something I haven't dedicated any time to at all so far). Maybe if we set up regular successful ENM runs, but on the whole it's just too much to ask.

If I am lucky enough to get frequent Aht Urgan parties that might also help, but 9/10 previous parties have ended up back in Bibiki Bay due to somebody not having ToA, or not having HP out there or whatever. Last night we had to fight as 5 for the duration becase there were no refreshers online who had access to the zone (our Galka WHM loved that).

**Tsingtao** · 14-06-2006, 12:15

So you're off Darwock? I missed this whats the story? You moving to a country with no internet access ^^

**Darwock** · 14-06-2006, 12:29

This is what I've been hinting at when saying we need to be done by August, I thought that was possible but it seems I had the wrong idea, if 'sea' is not the end of the story.

Still feel a bit funny announcing it as anything could happen yet, but i'm chucking in my cushy job and comfy life of drudgery to go and be a slave to the Japanese work ethic. Whether I can spare the time or the money to get online over there is completely unknown, but I'm taking my discs... so I guess when I leave I'll update my LS profile to read "lost somewhere in the near east, status unknown"

**Tobal** · 14-06-2006, 12:31

FFxi, anytime, anywhere, anywho!!

You can make a japanese LSrargh spliter group 'Jargh'

**Tsingtao** · 14-06-2006, 12:40

Yup we'll be expecting to see you mate, even if I have to pay for your sodding ISP myself. There's no escaping, if I'm wasting my life on video games so are you

**Darwock** · 14-06-2006, 12:49

For me FFXI goes hand in hand with a total lack of personal hygiene ('no bath 'til downtime') and sitting around in my pants. As I'll probably be back in a flatshare situation that may not go down too well.

(why do you think I was so mortified when that italian woman climbed onto my balcony in the middle of an xp party, lol)
