Keeper of Dreams awaknes too thee

Last night I was setting my alarm for bed in preparation for my first ever Kirin run with my godly HNMLS ‘RosesForTheDead’, I see a shout ring out from Whitegate urgently seeking a Samurai for the Diabolos Prime fight! Naturally as I am currently undertaking leveling Summoner as my main job I was crazy excited about finally completing my Avatar magic list with the addition of Diabolos to my collection!

I hastily jumped at the chance and was ecstatic to be accepted. The party was 5/6 and so I made the 6/6 and within minutes (after me spending an entire Ethiopian economy on meds) we were headed to the Shrouded Maw for the fated fight.
I must admit I was highly dubious of our chances as I had heard nothing but horror filled screams of the difficulty this fight entails. So we buffed up to full TP and we headed in with the following setup:

75 RDM/DRK
75 BLM/SMN
75 SAM/WAR
75 DRK/NIN
72 WAR/NIN
71 SMN/WHM

So we all jump in and get drawn in immediately and as soon as the Warrior had provoked it was game on! I managed to spam out 5 ws in under 15 seconds for a total of 4312 damage!!! With Diabolos having approx 9k HP I was stoked to have ‘almost’ wiped the floor with him all by myself!!! We had completely destroyed Diabolos within 30 seconds and he only cast Noctoshield the entire fight – that’s right NO 2hr and NO sleepga!! :D

Im soooo happy to be 1/1 on him and now have officially capped off my Avatar collection! Ah god bless random pick-up parties that break the game!!!

Kirin tea party in the sky...

This morning I met up with the HNMLS for my very first Kirin adventure! The fight was rather entertaining as myself and Zorc were designated the linkshell melee leaders….. /panic /panic /death

It basically involved him and myself composing the opening light skillchains for each Summoned pop by Kirin and instructing the tanks where to position themselves as we spammed the death! After minimal wipes the gods were destroyed one after another and finally only Kirin was left and we quickly proceeded to tear him a new one!!

Drops were decent with an Osode, a Pole and an O. Ignot dropping to the Linkshell community chest. All in all it was a great first attempt and I thoroughly enjoyed it and cant wait till I own my own Osode…soon my precious…soooooon.

CoP Chapter 5 completed!

Once again another flawless victory upon victory for the all glorious OneByOne static!! With assistance from two new comrades, we managed to destroy the mangy Mithran Sin Hunters and reign supreme and followed through with a faultless attack on the abhorrent Snoll Tzar!
As we geared up and headed out to the plane of the Mithran trackers, one anxious member was emanating his anxiety upon us like a creeping chill growing ever stronger. However, the strong will and determination of the hardened group was too great to be wavered by fear and apprehension. Through preparation and wit the group confronted the Mithran Trackers and annihilated them using the skill and prowess of the godly Tarutaru Summoners and their ethereal beasts!
After this absolute victory the group progressed onto the true foe of this chapter in time – Snoll Tzar. Residing in its frozen fissure we approached with burning desire to conquer it true! Victory was assured as we managed to serve its behind to it in a mere minute of veracious rampaging bloodshed.
From this victory the spirits and comradery was thick in the air as we rejoiced and paid tribute to the forsaken Prishe. What will Chapter 6 bring, what fate lies in wait for those seeking the ever eternal path to sea….? Stay tuned as our adventurers sink, ever deeper, into the cold, dark abyss of the unknown.

Kummy + Astara :-:-: Kindred Tarus

This post is dedicated to Kummy. The widdle brunette taru who in recent weeks has taken me under his wing and guided me through many exciting, scary and memorable moments. From Dynamis, to sky, to crazy death-induced coffer sprees ...he's becoming one of my most favourite players! and before it gets sappy and lame, peace!

Dynamis Jeuno first attempt!

Last week I took my first steps into Dynamis- Jeuno with RFTD and overall it was pretty exciting still! We originally were scheduled to attempt Windy but the turnout failed to impress it seems so we opted for the lighter run.

It was pretty uneventful in terms of drops but it was great fun further getting to know the members a bit better with the help of my good friend Kummy.

However perhpas the most noteworthy development was my loss of exp buffer after falling at least 5x and de-levelling to 74!! :P The first time since I dinged 75 over a year ago!

On Thursday I attended my very first sky event and had Kummy escort me through the zones to get me up to speed :P <3 <3 <3 After that we spent over 4 hours camping Ulli with very little success, although I made real good friends with a gilseller who asked for my email so we could be pen-friends after we spent over an hour chatting about Australia and his lil boy (whos 4!)(*._.).......God love em :P!
