Az’s gameroom

It’s been a productive few week. With a Dynamis-Jeuno run under our belt and a record breaking af drop , 3sam 1drg 1war 1rng & 1nin ( not record breaking for most ls’s but it is for ours). It’s nice to see that the dynamis-noobs we got are starting to get the idea and we are actually working well together.  It’s real frustrating getting new people into the ls and having to start over with everything but hey, thats part of life I guess.  It feels good to pass on knowlege, but you can only lead lead a horse to water…… Anyways, we have also done a Dynamis-Windurst with a surprizing result. No we didn’t get the win but the way that everyone performed it is in our grasp and can win the next attempt. No one aggroed the death house and everyone was listening to direction. We had to be blunt and it worked out great. I ended up having to tank and Galga and Achilles were the Thief pullers. Mischa and Kainon were have conection issues and so was Feya. Gotta work out a few minor things on the sac pulls and we will own in this Dynamis.  

On other notes I got to tank Faust for the first time. Why is it when a Pally is sitting there tanking it DD’s will stay away from Faust. But when I tanked him everyone just bum rushed him. It was entertaining to see them die while I sat there trying to hold hate of them and the BLM’s. It was actually tough and kinda exciting. Lost Hate to hedge a few times but it was manageable. quick voke and it was back to me. I really didn’t get to see the dmg that was being taken by the others but peeps were say 3-400 a pop. Just wow ! I was getting hit from 60’s-200’s (crit’s being the 200’s) With my new defense gear set-up (actually not so new) and a killer support team Faust hit like a girl. Tanked him as Nin/War, I was able to get my defense up to 513 with Taco’s, Defender and I think protect 4 or 5 not sure what I got. All I’m missing is a defending ring ( yeah… gunna get that soon ). -40% Physical damage reduction is an amazing thing. All gear is actually really eazy to get. Here is a shot of my gear set:

And just a screen of some of the dmg taken:

In other news: I started doing more Treasures of Aht Urghan mission. Hopefully get it done before 2 years pass. Only got one shot of the Khimaira 13 fight but it turned out pretty cool looking.

And a shot for Pyra:

And now for a moment of Zen (Thank you Pyra for a great idea)

Well it been fun. I’ll see ya peeps in a month or so !

So the other day we decided to do a Limbus. Only went in with 9 peeps and it was my first run with Mischa. Over all it was a fun run.  The mose exciting part was when Orestes got charmed and well, you know what happens there. Hedge started casting Thunder IV’s, Horton starts beating on him with his axes and of course me saving TP just for this ocassion drops my favorite weaponskill on him Blade: Jin, and gets the kill shot. Wish I had a screen of it but was too slow on the button pushing. Oh well got a decent shot at the begining of the crew.

In other news we did a Bomb Queen run. Was fun but not to exciting until we started to have a hate war which of course Oreo and Horton reigned supreme. Dexa the “pimpadin” was trying his hardest to hold hate but to no avail. Too many bomb dropers weaponskilling at start it was hard to establish hate, even for me. Somehow I end up pulling hate and tanking, putting Dexa the “pimpadin” to shame and holding off the onslaught of a bomb droping Warrior and Samurai and tanking in a Hauby to boot. Maybe the SaTa’s I was getting from our resident “Alljobz” Galgabaz was helping. We did fight 2 Bomb Queens on Firesday which was interesting. We are Event Horizon, Nothing can stop us ! Only one death the whole 8 runs we did which was Geeforce, no surprise there. Oreo didn’t die on BQ, hmm, that makes me kinda sad.

Oh almost forgot about this, Jezi and Shin got Sea, and guess what. I get to put another notch on my belt. Ah the sweeter things in life. Killing Linkshell mates with Ufo’s …. priceless. Even if it causes me to die in the process. It is well worth it. Don’t worry Jezibell I’ll get you soon enough. I can’t wait to get more people into sea.

Well  Mischa has finaly gotten sea and me being the great friend that I am decided to “show her around”.  Hedge and Oreo joined along with me.  With thoughts running through my head on how I would kill her with a Ufo. So I go ahead an pull one, little did I know that the cut sceen took forever and a day so I ended up kiting it around. Not to sucessfully I might add. Hedge and Orestes didn’t fair to well either and we all died while she was still in CS…. DOH !!

Anyways, Mischa finally gets out of cut scene and is well aware of our plans to kill her. Wheels start turning…. 8-1 !!!! So we take her to the palace for the first cut sceen then to the tower closest tower. Mischa starts to run up to the second tower, while me hedge and oreo are standing at the bottom of the ramp. She pauses for a moment then over vent we hear her ask “Why are you guys waiting at the bottom of the ramp ?” Hedge, being the quick thinker that he is says that we have a few more towers to go to and hurry up and check that one so we can go.  I send hedge a tell asking if the Aerns party agro.. we didn’t know for sure. She goes and checks the tower and finally my task is completed !! They ended up agroing us and Hedge and Oreo ended up dying. I made it out !!

I really wanted to mpk her with a UFO but that was well worth it. She’ll die by a UFO soon enough. So much love huh Mischa ? Here is a random shot from our last dynamis sandy run where I got stuck on a few mobs when trying to sac pull and ended up dying. We ran outta time and peeps just started to mess around. Skully messed around too much and this is what he gets.

This is one of the best ideas that someone on this came has come up with. Event Horizon members gathered in Aht Urghans Tea house, well the rooms that you can rent out near the tea house, and had a little christmas gathering. We had a “Secret Santa” and exchanged gifts. The turn out was really good. Got to play around with free fireworks and costumes. It was good times. Not much to write so on to the shots.

The Event Horizon

Attack of the Taru’s !

My buddy and me running around in our costumes. Dam I’d make a cute Taru !

Well it’s been a few weeks since the last time I posted.  Alot has happened in those weeks. The major thing is that AI has switched over to Event Horizon. Persius has migrated over to Cait Sith, along with a few other peeps. I was supposed to go but I had a change of heart. I was torn at the start when this talk about switching servers started and I’m still kinda torn. AI is an extremely great bunch of peeps even with our ”Short Bus” players. Hey every linkshell needs comic relief.  I couldn’t leave, not yet. I feel like I owe something to the peeps still in AI, and I need to pay that back. If it is getting a few more peeps done with CoP or more goodies to add to their inventory or whatever. I don’t know,  we’ll see how things go.

 Anyways, alot of the same old stuff has happened. We did a run on Gods and it turned out pretty nice. I didn’t tank this time which was a change.  Went Thief this run and well, wasted all my TH3 on Genbu. Mischa solo tanked this turtle flawlessly. Well, Kainon was back up tank but couldn’t take hate off her even with SaTa’s from me and a few Sams. He managed to finally pull hate at the end which ended up killing him. Oh well. It was a long Genbu fight. Lasted atleast 10-15 min. Guess i’m just used to seeing him go down in less 10 min. We went on to take down Seriyu and Suzaku. Drops were ok. No Suzaku’s sun-ate’s or Shura Kabuto for me but we did get some decent drops for other peeps. Sorry to dissapoint peeps, but not to many screen shots on this update. Merry Christmas and Happy New year. Untill I post again……. See ya peeps

Well last night I ended up getting a bad ass Great katana For my Sam. It was a rough ass fight. We went in with 8 people and it was rough. We wipe the first 2 time we did it. Shin ended up coming out to help us and the fight went a little better. Fun fight not too exciting but a great reward. Gratz to myself and Orestes.

The Unstable Cluster

Just a shot of our last limbus run. Only 7 showed up… Still fun and I got to do this to Oreo when he got charmed. Lucky him he was at full health and had atleast one shadow up to absord one of the Jin hits. Wish I killed him.

Well enough for today. Hopefully this maintenance won’t take too long.

Well my FFXI life has been boring and uneventful. Nothing big or exciting has happened since last update. Mostly the same old norm. Did a Dynamis-glacier again. Amazingly 2 Brd AFv2 dropped and guess who wasn’t there .. again, poor Persius. Cyn got one and Wtf got the other(who’s brd is lvl 1 i think lol). Whm dropped too and went to eve.  Still haven’t gotten the win. There were 2 wipes we could have avoided on time mobs. We’ll get it eventually. Just hope the glacier doesn’t turn into dynamis-windy for me and stuck on it for 3+ years.

We also did another Einherjar. It went alittle better than our first run but still didn’t get the win. I ended up bring in Persius’ Blm.  Man I suck dual-boxing and I extremely suck at playing Blm. I though gear swaps for my Nin and Thf were bad… geeze Blm was 9837928576892473298734329837 times worse. What made it worse was the fact I had no macro sets for Blm and scrolling through the bajillon spells blm/whm has, just fricking sucks.  Thats probably why all my mage jobs besides Blu are level 1-2 I just plain suck at being a mage. Well there nothing wlse to write about so I’ll just post a cool shot I took of the Treasure pool. Look at what the pieces spell out.

Since Dynamis got cancled because we got beat to the zone we all wanted we decided to try out something new. AI’s first run at Einherjar was well, a learning experience. It was actually extremly fun and a good break form the norm. We ended up fighting a bunch of buggards and a Big ass Buffalo that that took little to no dmg from meele. Most damage was done by Blm’s. It had a weird, I don’t know how to describe it, hate list. Tanks had a very hard time trying to keep hate and the damn Buffalo has this nasty knock-back move that seemed to reset hate and goes through shadows. It also has another move that drains TP which really sucked ass. In the end we didn’t win but it was still a damn fun thing to do.

The kick ass crew !

One of the mini bosses.

Stupid Knock-back.

Persius dead again.

And me right after him.

Only a few survivors of the massacre.

Right where he belongs.. With the AI family

Well I started leveling samurai and I’m fricking loving it. I’m only at level 42 but the job is amazing. The last few parties I had have been without a tank so lucky me gets to tank on a job I wanted to level so I wouldn’t have to be the meat shield. With decent support I was still able to pull it off. The best thing I’ve figured out is the self-skillchain no 2hr !! I still need to get the timing down but I can pull it off. No /drg for jump or /rng for barrage just straight /war. I wonder what would happen if I got myself a Soboro Katana. I probably would end up getting killed. Maxed enmity merits could be my downfall but whatever. Here’s a couple random screens of me self-skillchaining.

Enepi -> Enepi = Distortion

Same skillchain
