Final Fantasy XI Then...

[C']

Cleared the Moblin BC last weekend but still have Ulmia’s path to clear with both Mithra and Snoll BCs.

Was hoping to do those this weekend but Apa told me on Monday that he was going away for a week on Thursday which appears to have been a last minute thing so it’s been postponed until next weekend where I hope to get both BCs done allowing prep for Airship the week after.

It’s slightly frustrating as the greatest challenge is getting everyone together and going on the missions rather than the missions themselves (which have all been cleared without any major problems). I am confident I will get it finished within a month or 2 but the big gaps in between runs bug me.

Then I've still got Zilart to finish as the LS seemed to push for that a month or so ago when I was in another "not playing much" phase so missed out

I'm a little behind on Aht Urghan now too. I did have it cleared up to Ashu Talif when that was the latest mission then started the CS that were added in October's update (where Shant... sorry Karababa arrived) and was supposed to find that PUP girl in Aydeewa Subteraine but never managed to.

As soon as u clear the paths it will fly to the end of CoP i think me and Dara finished about a week after that. (But at this point we were doing CoP almost everyday lol)

On another note i dont mind doing any of the Zilart stuff or TAoU stuff again, the end key Zilart BC's are really good and not to easy to beat, and as for the TAoU stuff well thats Too Weak so once u have ur CS done the battles take no time at all.

What is the website for Dynacore? Guess it's time to try for Relic armour.

I did have the old mywowbb address but it seems to have changed now.

So, as far as catching up on ToAU Missions go... It looks like I will be needing a little assistance in the next few. Maybe just a suitable tank for killing some Ameretats but more like a fullish party for the NM and BCNM fights. I will try and get the Acid sorted this week if I can get some tank related help and then maybe try to organise the other two for next week.

Cool I'm game to help if I'm on, the Acid isn't a rare drop 3 or 4 kills should net us 1 and the NM is pretty easy, Rare and I duoed it.

The Ship BC isn't bad either but does need a fuill pt we lost when we tried with 3.

We got a Pallas drop last night which went to Tobal so {Congratulations}

However, we have 2 triggers left over currently held by myself and Tobal. I think the idea was to use them myself and try for my own pair but their use for NIN is rather limited. Therefore if anyone has a greater need for them they should get the benefit of them over myself. This offer is just for the trigger in my possession though. I can’t speak for Tobal’s.

No piss takes though. I’m offering this for people who will get a real benefit out of having them. Not for someone to sell on

After a couple of hours last night in sky with my 360 dieing and my PC telling me that it could no longer load my my profile >< i gave up due to feeling ill as well.

Congrats on the Pallas drop thats awsome! Is it 100&#37; drop? Or is it going to be another Swift Belt here i come? Id like to get a pair of them the STR is awsome! What were the triggers like to farm, didnt tobal have a nightmare?

I'd love the trig rare, but im sure we can drop another so we can both get them!

I've now got to send my 360 back /sigh well my RR7 arrived yesterday and i get my PS3 tomoz so yay!

Rare have u tried FF on ur PS3 yet?

[Tsingtao]

I'd like a set as well, excellent for WS would give my Vorpal Blade that extra oomph, though as DJ says we and farm more triggers. More over it's your trigger you'd be better trying and selling the drop if you get it and feel the gil would be better used elsewhere. For me its getting close to where Palas would add most value but a pair of Flame Rings wopuld give me more overall right now and a SH (495k last one sold)...

[Kerushi]

i got a SH that you can borrow tsing

[Tsingtao]

Lol not sure you'd get it back mate, I want it for solo work on lots of NMs mostly for farming but there are other reasons as well. Putting together a pseudo EVA build for trying out on PLD/NIN & PLD/THF

Pallas is sadly not a 100&#37; drop. My own experiences with Tobal this last week or so have been 1/4 (I think) but I’m unsure if Tobal had other attempts without me. Droprate on Alkyoneus is supposedly better than Pallas but we’ve never seen a trigger for him drop.

Trigger hunting experiences have been variable as it depends on how many people are there. Often it’s been a case of needing to have a quick claim option available (Provoke etc) as competition can be fierce. Also, last night it was a case of Pallas literally being popped as soon as the ??? spawned but this should calm down as time passes. However last night after using Tobal’s pre-obtained trigger we got 3 more with Rabs along with a Thief Knife (hence the extras currently in our possession).

As for my trigger, I don’t consider it ‘mine’. It was obtained by 3 LS members so I feel it should go to use to provide a LS member with a top piece of gear. Whatever makes an individual stronger makes the LS stronger and all that…

For me, the STR+9 would be good but the DEX-5 is nasty (NIN WS are mostly STR and DEX modifiers at equal measure) and I WS in Ochiudo’s Kote anyway which are awesome. Of course, should we ever get strong enough to take out Xolotl and Bandomusha Kote drop (Attack+22) remember my ‘sacrifice’

Finally – not sure which Final Fantasy you mean Dj on my PS3. I don’t have a US copy of XI + add ons so can’t try that (although HDD support is available in backwards compatibility so I could if I obtained it). No point though as 360 and PC versions would both look superior. I’ve run FF12 on it and it looks pretty much the same. No upscaling as it’s hardware BC (a ‘proper’ PS3 ) but the jagged problems were fixed a few months ago.

I have been playing RR7 these last few days and it is awesome. Also got access to the EU PSN Store last night and download Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection. Absolutely fantastic considering it was only &#163;6.99

Sony didn't add the 3d enhancement engin for the ps2/ps1 games on the ps3 so games will look the same as far as I read. well thats what they did for the Americans. I think all the "Beasmen kings" can be taken out by a party of 6 ... im not sure but I know Koneko or Konekotetsu took out Overlord with 6.
