Back in action
I had a bad week last week and ended up taking a break from playing FFXI. On top of having a bad week the PC version of Wings of the Goddess was a week late here! Between the expansion being late and everything else I was frustrated and decided not to play.
Now I have the expansion and am ready to dive into the new quests, missions, and stuff as soon as I find some time around everything I have scheduled. Tuesday was Lumoria, Einherjar, and Limbus, Wednesday is Assault and Dynamis-Buburimu is planned so I will be doing that, Thursday is Salvage, maybe I'll find some time on Friday to do it. I am going to force myself to visit all the maws and do as many missions as possible before starting to actively level dancer.
Tuesday turned out to be a great night. Lumoria definately made up for the sloppy performance of last week. We ended up killing Fortitude, Faith, Justice, Hope and Prudence before calling it a night. Getting people to Faith is still painful for them, but they will all learn how to climb the towers or at least keep up with people who know how to or they can keep dying. Asking for help before they die would be a good idea for them too. Hope and Prudence were messy, but both of them dropped a torque for us! Prudence still needs work but we are getting better every time we do it.
Limbus went well. Just before we were about to start it looked questionable whether or not we would have enough for Omega, but we ended up being fine. A few unfortunate deaths and we ended up holding it for five minutes just to be safe. As we were doing the last 25% of its health we decided to chainspell stun and finish it before anything bad happened. Omega managed to eject a pod that Robocop claimed and went down to 21 hp without dying and Bekei was brought down to 1 hp just before Omega died. Two tails dropped. I would have preferred pants for the people who need them, but another pair of shoes for me!
Einherjar was great. We had an easy set of skeleton warriors and nothing else. They were quickly wiped out by astral flow followed by the Morbol Emperor. Now that we had a better idea of how to handle the boss it went very smoothly and I remembered poison potions! We won with five minutes to spare. This gives fifteen or so of us access to tier two. I figure we will do at least one more round of tier one before having enough to attempt two. I hope people are consistent so we can hopefully get to Odin and maybe win so we will be able to access all the wings as needed...

Two tails for our troubles. |
