Well, in the 2 months that I have been MIA I have accopmlished wuite a few things. My PLD is 75 now, some crafting, some meriting, and a whole lot of things collected.
About the time I went MIA I had just started to do sky again. I started with Serapis and things were a bit strange for me in that shell, at least for the first month or so. It has been quite a fun ride, and I hope it continues for a long time to come. I FINALLY got my Zenith Mitts. That was a day that I will remember for a long time. 1/23 on ever seeing them drop from that damn turtle. I lotted a 982 against a few others that were able to lot. I've picked up a Kirin's Pole, Koenig Schaller, and Koenig Handschuhs as well. I also made a good friend!
Being in sky again is weird, but at least the view is settling.
I've almost finished collecting items for my Obi's from sea. There is one mob out there that is not easy to solo and can get you killed if you're not on your game. Another Taru, who happens to be my larger twin also needed to kill this mob for the same organ. We went to sea and kicked some ass and got what we needed with a few laughs and 0 deaths. Thanks Ramp!
While I was leveling PLD I was skilling weapons a LOT. Staff, Club and Greatsword. I happen to be skiling staff in the Boyahda Tree and noticed quite a few people heading for Fafnir. I've never seen him so I thought I'd go check it out. Fafnir spawned and I went up and game him a good look. Damn is he one ugly bastard. =P
One more ugly SOB is this Antican, but thanks to his ranger friend, I have a shiny new earring. The Intruder Earring is a nice piece when I'm in an area that isn't under windy control. Basically it works great in Sea lol. Well, 1/2 on the NM and it was an easy camp.
One more accomplishment was the completion of Apocalypse Nigh. It took 2 groups and a few deaths but it was well worth it. I picked up an Ethereal Earring for my PLD as that is the best of the earrings for the jobs I have leveled and plan to level. Thanks Kelandra for setting up the sliver run and the AN run, It's much appreciated. To those that were there the night we were victorious... You guys rock, and thanks for sticking it out. It took us 4 different setups to get the job done, but everyone was there until the end.
The group chillin' after a long night.
The group celebrating the victory.
The final setup had me on my 71PLD. I had never kited anything on PLD before(many Kirin's on BLM though lmao) so it was new to me. I died, but the rest of the team was able to get done what they needed time to do, so all in all I did my job. I also got a great view of Vanadiel with my ass in the air.
After getting high enough level for the Sapara of Trials, my NPC and I went to Kuftal and broke that latent in a couple sessions. I asked for help in LS but no one was able to help me out. I left it for a few days, and decided to go see an ugly mob by the name of Charybdis. It has a sword that I wanted for PLD. Joyeuse is a great weapon and I wanted it. I didn't have ToD but I went down to his hole and just started killing off Devil Mantas. Well, to my shock it popped and there I was, 75PLD/RDM, typing in all caps, sceraming for help in LS. I had a few people laugh at me and not believe me but after about 5 minutes of spamming
Well, we're not done yet. Juss and his girlfriend Knin both would like this sword. The team is set, we have ToD, and now it's just a matter of time. Well we get the next pop and all is good until Chary uses an AoE attack, and then Cross Attack. Iso got a little cocky and had switched to WS gear at about the same time. BAM! down goes Iso O.O, oh shit, I don't really know why but instinct took over and I went to work on PLD/NIN. Standing toe to toe with Chary, which I was told that PLD's can't, or at least shouldn't tank Chary. Knin R1'd Iso while I tanked. Iso was resting off weakness when a Devil Manta popped and aggro'd me. I had to Invincible to stay alive cause between the Manta and Chary I couldn't keep shadows up. Iso disbanded and made short work of the Manta while I got back on track with Chary and shadows. Iso came unweak, rejoined party, and went back to work kickin' Chary's ass. We won and Juss got a new toy.
The next pop we lost to another group, but we claimed the following for another crazy run on Chary. This time Iso didn't swap gear but Chary pulled the same trick and made him eat dirt. This time he freaked me out cause he didn't wait for R1. He HP'd to Windy lol. There I was again, toe to toe with that silly starfish. It was almost routine though. Working Chary over with my Joy Toy, as another just watched and waited for me to go down. That would not be the case this day. I tanked my Tarudin ass off until Iso got back. He came back in full force, Hundred Fists a GOGO! Chary was dead soon after and Knin got her sword.
Thanks Iso for the time spent and grats to Juss and Knin on their new toys.
The same day I got my Joy Toy, Iso and Lec helped me get Savage Blade. It was a fun time and now I get to play basketball when I fight. GOGO Air Taru!!!
Well I have been doing Limbus with Eternus lately. We have a lot of fun and the coins drops are out of sight! The fewest amount of coins I've gotten is 4 and the best was 8 with anaverage of 5-6 per run. I've gotten my Loquacious earring and now working on gear upgrades. We did Omega again last week and got a few Homam drops which is great, moves me up the ladder for a few pieces.
Buffing and going through strat.
The fight! This fight was different from all Omega fights I've done before... I didn't die roflmao!!
The new event that has been going on around the land is everyone getting crystals for some sunglasses. Well me and a couple friends went around and gathered our crystals.
The group looking pimp in their new shades.
Me looking down right HAWT! lmao
So I logged on yesterday and I get a tell from Neyla saying he needs a Tarutaru Paladin. Now I think it's a joke at first cuase why would a Bst need a PLD. Well it turns out he was helping a young smn get their avatars. He was on RDM/NIN and was looking for some more dmg to get them done. I suited up and headed out. We did 5 avatars in a couple hours and now the young smn just needs to get some fame in Norg for Levi and their collection will be complete. Grats Cort and thanks for having me along Neyla.
Well, if you made it this far then you must not have fallen asleep. Thanks for reading and again, sorry for the absence.
Peace,
Shmed
