I didn't post yesterday 'cause I couldn't be bothered. Not much to note, I did exp drk to 37 and do limbus. Got my Temenos ninja item, going to upgrade feet on Sunday O: +4 game hours runfast:Q Ran through and joined up with Bastok in the past too, was a long run but the zones are pretty in the past, quite enjoyable and easy.

Didn't get up to much this morning, played FM07 until Wingedangel got in from college, we then decided what to do today, the plans are as followed:

• Exp bsts with Wingy and Nimy.
• ENM75 for Hagun

That's all we got, exping bsts was fun, we decided to try something a little different, thought we could camp in East Ronfaure (S), there are Colibri and Ladybugs there. Both weak mobs and die quickly. Me: BST/NIN. Wingy: BST/NIN and Nimlith: RDM/DNC(changes to /NIN later)

We were easily killing mobs and getting chain 5, with no downtime whatsoever. After about 20mins we all dinged 41 and Nimlith got refresh, this made things even faster.
























Nimlith died about half way through, which stopped us a bit. We tried to get him raised but he had to HP. >( He also DC'd on his way back to camp thus making us waste more time. We started killing again, but it's slower. Only getting 100-170 exp a fight, instead of the 200-300 we were getting to begin with. Still it's a lot quicker than all other camps and things are dying quickly. It's really easy and relaxing too. :D Me and Wingy didn't have Sigil so were getting a bit less exp than Nim. So much that he could die and HP, not use Empress Band and still ding 2k before us. The bastard. D: Gonna be a sloww crawl to 43 when he dings. Oh well, it's fun. :D

A special pixie picture. O: Which Cure IV'd us when we needed but wouldn't raise Nimlith, the whore. >(













We're gonna stop and ENM when we're all 43. :D Try and get us a Hagun for Wingy and Nimy's sams. At 2mil, we don't want to buy it. ;(

Ding! 43. On with the spriners boots and off I run towards Southern Sandy in the past. O: Change to blm and warp.

Watch wingy do a couple of crafts whilst waiting for Nimy to get back from afk, then head out towards Attohwa. Get a tele from the same porter we got earlier, she's taken 9k from me today. ;( Oh well. :p

Nimlith's a bit late so me and wingy are stood around. ;( (looking sexy ofc, here we are O:)














Half way up the mountain, Nim falls off. ;( (always nim) So I wait, he then DC's near the top. D<
Here we are on top of the mountain. :D











Healing to full just before we enter ENM.











After a lot of concentration, running around and me popping him 3/3 times we won. :D Hurray us.



We'll get that hagun one day. ;( 2.5k exp though from it, it helps towards buffer, so it's not all bad. 0/3 or 4 now. D: It's a pity you can only do it once every 5 days though. Still, it was easy. :D













Time to hit the past and try to get this next quest done. ;( Gogo nighttime ninja boots and quickening ftw O: +37% movement speed. After buying a gnole claw and running through Vunkerl Inlet, I got a key item I needed. Got a retrace back to Bastok and finished the quest for 10k back. O:

I then decided to start campaign, see what all the fuss was about. It's not that great tbh, it's kinda fun and easy to do. Easy way to make a bit of exp if you've nothing better going on.

Me and Nim hitting Forts











Me dead at the end of another campaign.











Wasn't sure where to start on this one. We picked off and killed one at a time :(

So, a new day. Slept well if you were wondering. Time to get on.

Plans for today include:

• Help Wingedangel get a BLM buffer.
• Level Woodworking.
• Do Dynamis-Xarcabard.
• Exp BST if I get the time.

Just have to wait for Wingy to get up before we can start, so I'm leveling woodworking a bit making acid bolts. Just dinged 16, only 44 levels to go until cap. :D

So, getting Wingy and Fay(RL mum) a buff at Puddings in Mount Zhayolm, got a good group but distractions and other people soloing makes us not do as well as we could. Some fucker called Amrod just won't move camp so we can exp properly, he has to exp right where we want to, ruining chains. He could always just move to princes, but no. D: /emo

After this, we decided we had enough time between then and Dyna to exp bsts for a bit, it all went tits up but we dinged 40. :D Things started to get quicker then. Were fighting with Soldier Crawlers against Goblin Poachers and Robbers in Yuhtunga Jungles, the robbers are gay due their high evasion 'cause they're thieves. Poachers were really easy, but we kept getting links and such. But that's the fun of bst, death and experimentation.

Well, we finished there in time to get geared for our linkshell's first Dynamis Xarcabard run. Gather at 5:30 and aim to enter for 6:00 BST. We gather and sort out the parties to have tank/blm/dd parties, and alliance up. We give out main commands and enter. We managed to do the first pull wrong. xD And we wiped. This happens periodically throughout our Dyna until we get to the first NM pull, we did the TE just north of the RDM/BRD/WAR NM spot without any trouble. We managed to fuck up all three snipes of the eyes. ;( However after the blms reraised and killed them, we managed to team up the plds with a rdm and whm each so they don't die whilst we are killing the others. We kill all three of the NMs with minimal deaths which was nice :D None of them dropped their af though. After we raised up, we moved to the next set of NMs, and decided to sac pull them due to the trouble we had sniping last time, and the lack of time remaining we had. The sac pull went kind of wrong, as the NIN didn't come due to the PLD linking, but we got the BLM and DRK mobs, and 3 lesser mobs which turned out to be a blessing in disguise. ;) We kill the BLM first which dies quickly due to it's low evasion and defence.










O:We wern't expecting this. My mum's character Fayizma, is BLM and had this commented. I wished her luck and waited for the three lotters to lot. O: /anticipation





I was certain the third person ws going to outlot Fay at this point. ;(



O: She won with a lot of 264. :D I was mega, mega happy for her as she deserves it over all the other lotters in linkshell imo. :Da

So the five minutes pass and:



Sorry for the crappy pic, had to cut it out. :D Still looks good though. Grats to Fay :D


















From there we killed the DRK nm, which didn't drop (just as well as we had no drk70+'s in the zone). We also killed the brd and two warriors that were left over.









O:! A drop from a normal mob! Unheard of. Luckily someone was commenting mnk, so they lotted, everyone else passed and they got. :D



Congratulations to Kinip on their shiny new Melee Crown! Yay!
















So all in all, even though it was a trial run. We got two pieces of AF so it wasn't a complete waste. :D Congratulations to Fayizma(mummy!) and Kinip! on their newly aquired Xarc AF.

Also congratulations to CtrlAltElite Fairy Server Dynamis Linkshell for taking our first steps inside Xarcabard as a linkshell, I'm proud of us. Let's grow from here. :D Sucks that the Ninja AF didn't drop, I want it. :( Oh well, it was a fun experience for our shell, and we learned a lot. :D Back there again on Tuesday! We'll be ready!

So, let's start.

So, due to friends Wingedangel and Nimlith deciding to blog. They convinced me to start one as I like writing and I don't have much to do usually. Well, here it is. I'm Fyrestorm from Fairy server on Final Fantasy XI. If you don't hold any interest in the game, it'll be worthless reading any farther. I've been playing the game for a while now, too long in fact. I do all type of things in game, most things will get noted here. Stupid things like sitting around in Whitegate is pretty boring, so I wont mention that.

What I plan on doing today:

• Leveling Dark Knight
  
• ENM50 - Pulling the Plug
• Doing some Hauby crafts.
• Leveling woodworking
  

So first of all, today I guess. Was working all day so couldn't do much, been leveling DRK with Wingedangel's SCH since she got in from College, it's a pretty crap party but fun nonetheless. Had a few deaths and changed camp, ended up in Eastern Altepa Desert. It's a good setup but we just don't kill fast enough, our thf is pretty retarded though which doesn't help at all. Dinged 34 and left as Winged has to go at 9. ;( Getting ready to start the Hauby Crafts, need to do some other crafts for mats before I start. Using a friend's character who doesn't play any more really. Called Whippinboy. Wish me luck. :D






0/2 so far. Getting some more materials and going to try again.





Oh well, 0/3. Better luck next time. <: Now onto my next task! Going to do ENM50 - Pulling the Plug in Promy-Vahzl. We duo it for Toreador's Ring. I want it for my melee jobs. Me on WHM/BLM and Nimlith on SAM/DRG. We can duo it easily, this time I'm taking Wingedangel's BLM for a buffer, gives 3k exp :D So, we get there and me and wingedangel both enter fine. Nimlith, he cant. ;( He forgot the key item. If you read Nim or Wingy's blog about CoP 2-5 yesterday, you'll know he's the person who always fucks things up. D:












However, we have another plan! I'll take Darken as PLD50 to try and replace the whm. It's foolproof and cannot fail... Well, I guess it can. However, we may as well try.

I died taking Darken down the lift. ;( Fucking IT Thousand Eyes. >(

Got there, entered and WON. A lot easier than whm + sam, like we usually do.






No good drops, but hey. Better than nothing. You never know until you try. :D

So, Nimlith and I decided to head to Phomiuma Aqueducts to get some subligards, we're all BSTs. 2-hr a oil slick and let it go crazy on Fomor.














So far we are:

• 0/5 Dragoon
• 0/4 Beastmaster
• 0/2 Thief
• 0/2 Ninja
• 0/1 Ranger

I killed Winged by forgetting about blood aggro, and two fomor were close. >( Unlucky really. Shit happens. It's a shame no drops, but had no TH. D:

Anyway, it's late and I'm dead tired. Will post tomorrow. O: Cugaiz.
