The Antlion, The Dragon and some other things

The weekend was full of good times. I was such a slacker that I didn't take any SS's of the events, so I will just tell a little about what happened.

So on Saturday, I heard a shout for Titan and Garuda help and since I still need those avatars I was ready to go. We had some trouble finding a tank but then a tiny taru from Serapis said he tank them for us. Well he only had so much time, and a couple people forgot to get the tuning fork so he was only able to help with Titan. For Garuda we couldn't find another tank so I was nominated to tank since I have a 62 Paladin. Well, needless to say I didn't do so well. Garuda's Wind Blade pretty much owned me and I remember getting hit for 900+ at one time. We tried a couple times but had no luck. After 3 deaths I said I would take my leave. The last death was one that could have easily been avoided, but I will leave it at that. We warped back, I changed to Black Mage and by that time we had found another tank. We went back to fight Garuda and it was an easy win.

While I was doing the Garuda fight I received a tell from a friend asking for help in that hell hole I call Castle Atrocious(Oztroja). Mee Degi and Quu Domi were the targets. Well we spent about 3 hours there and claimed each one 3 times. Well, both were being stingy and we didn't get the drops wanted.

After that I went to farm some items cause I was running low on some supplies and also wanted some materials for leveling my Clothcraft. While doing this I checked my FL and seen a friend online that I hadn't seen for a while. We started chatting and we talked about going out to Attohwa Chasm to farm up some H.Q. Antlion Jaws for making the pop item for Rostrum Pumps. My friend came as Thief and I as Black Mage, and we started out saying we were only going to fight the lower level of the 2 antlions that drop them. That did not go as planned. See in order to fight them you have to aggro them by walking over cracks in the ground without sneak on and you never know which one you're going to get. When they aggro, they do this move that would rip though 4 shadows and do 200-300 pts damage minimum. Well, we make an awesome duo on these things. It didn't take long to figure out how to bounce tank these things so that we could utilize SA, TA and some nukes. We finished 4/7 on jaws and then went and got the rest of the mats for the item. Now I just have to find a LS making a run soon.

Sunday was full of crafting in the early afternoon and then my first uncapped Wyrm fight. I don't count Ouryu in the CoP missions a true worm cause it's a capped fight and he gives up before you kill him. We did Storms of Fate, which is one of the last few missions for the CoP and ZM storyline. I was quite a bit nervous but just followed what I was told to do things went pretty smooth.

After that I went to Windy and met up with some friends for a little goldfish scooping. =) This was a lot of fun and many laughs were had.

Also on Tuesday night I dinged 63 on Paladin and hopefully get another level or 2 before the end of this week.


Now to some older stuff.

A friend in need. I came across this poor soul on my way to level NPC's with my friend Hornless. Needless to say we got the chap back on his feet so he could ding his level. =P

Next is a little Soboro Sukehiro, Manaburn style! Some people from my dynamis shell were looking for help to get the GK and I was happy to help. Only a couple deaths the whole time and we did get 1 GK.
