So, update time. (Been a while since I've done these regularly, it's good to get back into it.)
I forgot one of the things to do on my List. Avatars. I already have all of them bar Fenrir because I did the lvl 20 fights about a year ago, so now I only need to fight the avatars once to get Fenrir :D I already have two Whispers now, from Shiva and Garuda, and over the weekend I spent some time trying to get lvl 5 fame in Bastok up to lvl 6. I did it :D So I got Titan activated, then headed to Windy to check my fame there. She seemed to like me a fair bit so I tried for Fenrir. Activated! :D :D I already knew I'd have enough fame in Norg, but as we went there that evening anyway (more in a mo) I went and checked. Leviathan - activated!!
Now I just need Ifrit and Ramuh, but seeing as they're both Kazham and Mhaura and are both Windy fame, I'm thinking I'm pretty much good to go :D Cha-ching!
I will have to fight them again, as I want the lvl 71 SMN ring, but that's 19 levels away so I can wait a bit lol ^^; (Although really not *that* far anymore O_o)
We're also getting closer and closer to 70, so hopefully Fenrir shouldn't be too much of a problem! Bad dog!
So, the Phomiuna Aquaducts mission went well. A few deaths during the actual fight, which totally took us by surprise (that thing has a *long* range!) but we won :D And with no tank, hah! Gogo /WAR and 3 BSTs charming IT jellies! :D
We also managed to get a tank for Zilart Mission 4, a guy on our ls who has PLD at 60. He's been awol for a while now, but he really wanted to do this so we waited for him, and next week he's coming back to level properly, so yay :) Anyway, the fight itself was easy, but getting there was *awful*. Not because of the route, really, but because of the stupid Sneak and Invis part! Grrrr! In the end we were so close to getting to the BCNM but just weren't getting anywhere because the spells kept wearing, but Anaki came up with the bright idea of him, Mendi and Fyre all going back to the zone because they didn't need to have lanterns lit. So that made it a lot easier with just me, Lel and Dar doing it. Got aggroed by a tough bomb while we were there, couldn't avoid it, but it was fine. And yeah, after that it was a cynch and the fight was so easy compared to the rest of the night!
ZM5 sounds like it could be quite hard, but they're not BC fights so we can have help for them! :D Yay! 6 then is a cutscene, 7 and 8 are fights, 9-11 are CS again, and 12 is our last fight. Then we have Sky access :D
I don't know when the next Promathia mission will happen, as it's another BCNM and quite a hard one from the sounds of it. Bleh.
Got my bikini over the weekend :D We're going on an ls outing on Sunday to Purgonorgo Isle, so I'll have some good pics to put up after that ^_^ Lel got his as well, put it on, took it back off again and dropped the shorts lol ^^; But not before I got a picture >:D
Saturday and Sunday we levelled (of course :P) and we're now 5k short of 67 :D The last few Noble's Tunics have gone for 10mil, I'm so tempted to ask to borrow 3mil off someone if one comes up for sale >_< We're doing the BCNM60 this weekend, but that seems so far away ;_; And then we have to wait for the items to actually sell! I don't want to get 68 and not have the Tunic there waiting for me :( Also at 68 I finally get to use Shell and Shellra IV! lol I've had those spells waiting for me for a loooooooooong time now ^^; I also have Reraise III waiting for me lol ^^;; Another thing I get at 68 is my Blue Cape, yay :D (Not a +1, though :P)
After that huge chunk of money is out of the way, we start saving for Lel's Scorpion Harness. Saving millions really does get a lot easier at high levels O_o Of course, it helps that Fairy's server has an economy shot to hell.
Speaking of which, we think this new update is completely based around Fairy. Bryn, all those things I was telling you about with the HNMs? Well, there was a lot more to it, like Cure-bombing people so they can't move (ie, the tank) and HNMs spawning purple because a bot had already claimed it. Now suddenly there's a function that allows you to stop people curing you outside of your party, and you can't claim a mob with spells or abilities until a certain time has elapsed after it's spawned. Regular HNM occurances on Fairy, so we think we're the guineapig server lol (But it's a good thing, means our shit will make all servers fairer :D)
We need to lvl SMN and BST, haven't done it since we got 52 :( We've all got our AF2 now, and I've even got my gloves for lvl 54! :D Sea Serpent Grotto coffer was easy! :D Unfortunately, Lel and Dar have got the same coffers that we had on MNK and WHM, which is a bitch. Garlaige, Crawler's Nest, and Beadeaux :/ If there is someone else in Garlaige or Beadeaux also looking for a coffer, even just one more person, it's horrible. And we have to get two of them >_< Suddenly my Temple of Uggalepih coffer doesn't seem so bad...
Got offered a Dynamis run for this weekend, that was damn exciting! :D We didn't go, but getting the offer and realising that we're finally able to do end-game stuff... :D We want to be as close to 70 as possible, really, and that's only just over 2 levels away... O_o kneebone went though, and getting regular updates from him was so fun! They usually consisted of "Dead again", though, but still! :D
Lel still needs Windy and Norg fame for the avatars, I need to go and do that for him now ¬_¬ Well, not Norg, he can do that on his own :P (Oh, and I have to say - Garuda was a *bitch*. She would not die! She just stayed at this sliver of health for sooooooo long. Stupid Whispering Wind. lol When she used her 2hr, Anaki (lvl 60 DRG) went down in one go. Was funny. He can't wait to do the rest of them lol)
