Weekend Accomplishments 10-04-04Follow

I finally broke my THF funk, went out and had an *AWESOME* party in Yuhtunga for 30-32 off of Sahagin.

If people knew just how much easier it is to fight Sahagins than Mandys, they'd never set foot in Yhoator. >.>

I also feel a lot more confident in myself now that I know how to manage Fuidama. Of course, one level from now, I get to learn how to manage VB Fuidama... O.o

Lessee... My goal was to hit 30 this weekend with my red mage so I could safely go back to black mage till 60 (28 rdm at the moment).

Saturday... didn't play at all during the day, because I had family over. I went on for 2 hours at night... listened to someone to move camp to the Yhoator outpost. Party got lost, killed, disbanded, and I spent those 2 hours running around Yhoator and Yuhtunga trying to get back to Kazham and not dying. I calculated it out and I spent over 500 MP casting invisible on myself so I wouldn't die. Managed to make it back by the skin of my teeth. (50 HP left after I run out of mana and get aggroed by a smithy by the first tunnel, south of Kazham.)

Then... on Sunday, I get a party for an hour... we make a whopping 350 exp! Wow! Then I went to my 10 hour shift at work.

So, a rather frustrating weekend. Hopefully the week will be better.

Still, running around the Jungles was somewhat amusing. I know my Linkshell was amused at my frustration and swearing. :)

Hey, I'm glad you mentioned this. I sent one of my LS buddies (Bluntforce) to the Sea Serpent waterfall entrance with his party this weekend. I said, "Don't pull Makaras til like level 29 to 30ish," them being 27 or 28. So, of course, their dumba[/b]ss BLM Fly, I believe it was instructed them the Sahagin and Makara were the same level. So, they pulled a Makara first and two died, blamed Blunt for his idea to go there. And I guess it was just a clusterfu[b]ck after that. Hurray for dumba[b][/b]sses.

But yeah, that place puts Yhoatar to shame...anyhow..

Got NIN to 24 (what a pain, our PT leader picked up replacements faster than I have ever seen, and we needed plenty. Most of them were idiots) But kudos to the great job the pt leader did.

Got Winged boots and Emporer's Hairpin.

Farmed about 100k. That's about it.

Who left?


On Friday, my HDD went clickity clickity clickity... >_<

So, I had to go buy a new one on Saturday, and spent Sunday rebuilding. I didn't get a chance to play at all. About 3-4 hours of reinstalling FFXI. I can't wait to make all my macros again!

Got WHM from 47-48, half way to 49. It sucks, not much time to play now, wont be able to lvl again until next Sunday :/. Oh well hopefully I will hit 50 by next Monday.
Thats about all I did game related

Namari Cadant left the LS =(

I sent you a PM. Don't need to talk about that in this thread.

Yeah...let's talk about my goddamn weekend. First of all, I'm glad you all had productive, eventful weekends. Mine was very productive, until Sunday night, when it all went to hell.

-Did the stupid *** Bastore Sardine quest in Windy to get my fame up to the level where I could do the Aspir quest. Was able to recoup the gil I spent on it ages ago and make some profit. Yay me.

-Took the two stacks of Quus I caught while fishing for sardines and started doing the Bubbly Bernie quest. A long, dull, boring run back and forth in beautiful, South Gustaberg. (Man, did the brochure ever lie about this friggin dump. But, I digress.)

-Finally got a party on Saturday and was able to get my DRK up to 49, plus a respectable cushion, about three deaths or so (so glad I bought that goddamn Noble's Bed).

-Started slowly raking in the gil for the items I need. Close to the 200K mark. Yay...only 2 million more gil to go. -_- Time to get that Norg fame up more so that I can start doing all those goddamn quests.

Sunday night though, everything went to sh*t. I hanging out at the AH in Ru'Lude Gardens with my main Taru Hitokiribatousi, looking at high end DRK items and drooling, ******** over the prices, sh*t of that nature, when I finally got an invite. I was pleased, figured perhaps I'd ding 50, get a cushion, which I know I'm going to need for the fun filled events that await me when I start going Genkai 1 hunting. Well, it takes an hour or so for the party to finally get together. I was figuring we'd hit the basement in Garlaige, but I was informed that we were going to the Quicksand Caves.

Now, upon hearing this I'm like, whatever, I'd never been there, but I know that the teleport crystal is right in the middle of an Antican breeding ground, so I thought I'd relieve the burden of the mages and buy a stack of silent oil. We decide to hit Rabao, get chocobos and go to the Caves. This is where sh*t starts going downhill. First, our BLM hits the wrong button and is tossed off her chocobo. She starts getting attacked, so the WAR, WHM and I hop off our birds and start killing the spider that's attacked her. Kill it, no problems. Then there's a Cactaur aggro out of nowhere and the BLM goes down. Then the WHM goes down. The WAR and I decide to disengage and huff it back to town. The WAR gets ahead of me and the Cactaur, and the little ******* comes back and finishes me off, then catches up to the WAR and kills him as well. So, let's see, so far that bad feeling I was having about going to the Quicksand Caves has proven true. I had a feeling I was going to die, and die I did, before I even got to the goddamn camp.

Our WHM goes to HP and decides to Tele-Altep back to us and raise us. Meanwhile, the RDM comes back and starts raising the BLM, then me, then the WAR, who almost made it to the zone. I get the raise, use a silent oil and get the hell back into Rabao, pissed that my cushion is slowly starting to get whittled away. No problem, I figure. We'll get to the Caves and I'll start making it back.

We get to the Caves and go down into the main room, in a corner. The THF pulls an Antican and I'm thinking to myself, "Here comes death number two." So, the Antican this time kills the WAR, RDM, and me. So now, I'm pretty goddamn hot under the collar. I more or less say in either a tell to the RDM or to the party in general "One more death, and I delevel and I'm going to be naked down here."

We get raises, and regroup. We move up into the hallway, but for some reason last night, the Anticans were a problem all over. People were zoning them, people were calling for help on them and everyone was jumping in to kick their asses, then one time when we had all zoned to the Western Altepa zone, a WHM came running to the Quicksand zone with two Anticans on her ***. The whole time I'm thinking, why in the hell didn't we go to the goddamn basement of the Cidatel?

So, for some reason, the hate is all over the place in this party, and then, the THF goes to pull another Antican. There's a link, but luckily the party down at the end of the tunnel grabs the link. Our Antican comes back to camp and we start attacking the damn thing. Next thing you know, it does that goddamn mute move and I'm thinking, "This is great. I can't absorb it now, and I can't use stun on it."

That's when that ugly looking ******* cast some ancient magic on our WAR and kills him. So, the Xonax is left to tank it. At this point, I just say the hell with it, call for help and decide that after this incest problem is taken care of, I'm going back to Jeuno and calling it a night. The group of people kill it and the WAR is saying that he's done for the night, and frankly, I don't blame him, since that was his 3rd death.

So, lemme see. I think we made about 600 XP total in about 3 hours or more, but with the two deaths I had, I think I barely broke even to having the XP I had before I WENT TO THE GODDAMN PLACE!!!!

So, anyways, the start of the weekend was productive, but Sunday night just totally pissed me off to the point where I didn't even set up my bazaar in South Sandy. I simply went to the Mog House in Jeuno, told my LS went happened and basically said, "F*ck this sh*t. See you guys in two weeks."

So, yeah, those are my weekend accomplishments. ~.^

Wow it was an interesting weekend! I got my white mage to Level 54 first. Then I went coffer hunting in Crawler's Nest and got my Healer's Pantaloons. (Can't wear them til 56 though). I also finally purchased my light staff! Which means I have both a light and dark staff now! Yay! I also did a BCNM40 run and got Erase! Finally! But now I'm in charge of selling the items and giving people their money. Damn I'm horrible at math.. /cry

Let's see, knocked off 1 or 2 things on my 'to-do' list (which seems to grow all the time)
-reached 50 with whm also (gratz Win)
-finally got exoray mold (need to get coal still...grrr)
-Got holy (even thought I shouldn't have...I'm saving for my staves but I really felt like blowing stuff up with it, so decided to spend the 32k on it)
-helped my friend get Tele-Mea
-visited Carpenter's landing for the first time and decided just for fun to help this thf get a few black tiger fangs (was really just bored and felt like using my new spell)

/sigh.... so much to do..so much to do
