More Einherjar & Dynamis-Bastok

Jul 3

Posted by arrode in Dynamis, Einherijar | No Comments

Today we did more Einherjar with the LS and completed Rossweisse’s Chamber making me 3-3 for the first level chambers! The battle was considerably easier than the last time we attempted it (last time we had a million bats and got the final boss, a weird fish, down to 1% before we were kicked, how sad) as it was about 6 Jnun type mobs and the final boss which just had a lot of HP and not much difficulty.

Afterward, we did Dynamis-Bastok. The run wasn’t too great and ended up having us full wipe twice and not complete the Dynamis (I think we had approximately 23 people attending) but some good did come of it as I ended up winning Bard’s Cuffs! ^^

Bard's Cuffs

Yay! Not that there was much competition and I won with a lot of 250ish. <_<;

I’ve been debating what job I want to level next and I’m caught up between DRK (to 37), SAM, BLM, and PUP. *sighhh* The choices are killing me. I’ll probably just /random to figure out what I wanna do or something.

What a pain!

Current levels What a pain! I transferred all my entries from my FFXI based livejournal over here the past two days so now you can view all of the entries here. I’m probably not going to post in that LJ anymore, so come here for updates from now on. I’m going to try to make it a point to make at least one entry per week in regards to my XI exploits! Current level statistics for my jobs to the left.
I’ve rejoined NotED and there are quite a few new faces and a number of people I remember from back before I quit.

A quick summary of the past month in XI:

I got my BRD to 75!
Did some meriting. I have Slow II now and some random BRD enhancements and I’ve upped my MP boost to +4 (40 MP). Meriting is kind of boring since everyone wants to do colibri and I’m sick of those banana birds. :<
Won a free lot for Zenith Pumps, which is nuts considering when I left these were in high demand and waitlisted now they’re free lot from Fafnir. I don’t have the money to uncurse them yet though.
I’ve done a little Al’Taieu adventuring with the LS. I participated in a Jailer of Love kill, which was incredibly boring, and today we ran around the palace and farmed spawn items.
MOAR dynamis. I’ll be honest; I never liked dynamis. It’s long, boring, and lags my poor lappy to death. Drop rate seems higher now though for AF2, but that could just be my insanity.
Einherijar (Did two runs, both wins). Saw some of the new abjurations drop (the ones for WAR and DRK)
Got to see one of the new HNMs (no claim though) Cerberus. Very cool looking! Hopefully I’ll get to fight it soon if we claim it in the future.
Lots of sitting around quasi-afk camping Fafhog/Aspidechelone
Got killed three times by Absolute Virtue.
Helped Zenshin reacquire Rank 6 by killing the Dark Lord. I love that battle, it’s so epic! I remember the first time I did it around level 50ish and was freaking out and we won by a sliver of health thanks to our LV60 PLD friend.

I’m considering what to level next after I finish meriting a bit. I want to get my RDM pimped out merit wise and pump out my BRD a little bit before I advance with another job. I’m thinking going melee now even though my WHM is 62 (I can’t stand how BORING it is). I’m debating between SAM (LV10) and NIN(LV37). I’ve always wanted to have a LV75 NINJARRR just cause… it’s a NINJA. Plus I’m a sucker for cool looking AF. >_> I love my reasoning. I also want to do SAM since it just seems like such an elegant melee job and I have AF2 for it already (lol at free lots). At the same time, I want to finish off WHM and be done with it… and yes, I have AF2 for WHM too which makes me all the more sad since I’m still 0/5 for RDM AF2.
