Skillup Loves Company
Operation: Boyahda Blade update:
Step 1: obtain the skill
It was getting pretty grim alone in the tree evasion soloing crabs on bard. If nothing else, it was becoming increasingly obvious I was going to run out of shihei before I got the skill level I needed. But, proving far too true that misery loves company, Sans here was skilling up great sword at the same time. So we teamed up, me singing elegy and buff songs and Sans saving me about a bazillion shihei. We both got ridiculously good skill and complained about lazy dancers and lolninjas. Good times.
So that's that.
Step 2: break the latent effect on the Dagger of Trials
Bard doesn't get any good weaponskills so I was stuck doing level two skillchains. Brimah here helped me out some, but an incident with fomors ended things a bit early. 84/300 points so far. If I can't annoy Brim or some other bored so into helping I might take a long long trip into the Kuftal tunnel.
Step 3: kill the bat: gotta wait until I get the thing cleaned!
Step 4: cap dagger skill
A byproduct of killing large numbers of weak mobs for a long time. Six more merit points until fully capped dagger.
Brimah came to salvage last night. MNK MNK MNK THF BRD WHM in Arrapago. There was some early concerned about a lack of RDM support, but the party made up for it more monks punching things in the head with room to spare. No 35 drops but we made it all the way to the boss with 10 minutes to go, which is pretty cool since it wasn't a boss run and we were killing every NM on the way up. Armored Chariot proved too much for our 10 minute time limit and totally halfass try, alas, though we had it down to 54% with absolutely no 2hours and only one healer. I took screenshots of the interesting fight but they're all full of crappy bard song animations, a common problem for me. I might end up filtering those animations out.
There was more to this I think, but I forgot. Oh well!
