Galka Style

Last night was a night of excitement. It began with probably our best night of farming in Lumoria since we have regularly schedule time here. We started working our way to one of the monk Ix'Aern spawn points. Along the way deciding to try to spawn Temperance. Surprisingly, Temperance who is always a pain to spawn decided to show up. It spent a lot of time in blunt mode. So much that it started to resist gravity before being half dead. We ended up winning without earning a torque.

Next went Ix'Aern. I ended up pulling. As I was running by a ghrah it managed to land bind on me. It was a strong bind too. I ended up taking a few hits from the monk and other mobs before it wore and I was able to get out of range again. The aern died before I had a chance to get back to the rest of the alliance. A vice dropped and went to Backbone. We actually need the deed more than anything. Quite a few vices have dropped for us recently to the point we are out of or almost out of the deed.

Hope went pretty smoothly even with one tank dying very early. This Hope wasn't spamming thundaga so that paladin held it with no problem. No Hope torque for us though. Justice followed Hope, but we had no luck with that torque either. Justice was getting dangerous near the end. The black mages' mp was low and they were having problems killing the summoned xzomit without mijin gakure going off. We won with only one death that was caused by all the charms.

To finish the night we ended with Prudence. Prudence has always been a problem for us. We are starting to do it more efficently than we use to, but we still need work. Last time we pretty much wiped, but managed to kill it. This time it went much better. The first Prudence died, apparently with no deaths for the killing alliance. The second one was a little messy, but we managed to handle it much better than in the past. No torque though. Another Love is coming up soon!

Einherjar followed Lumoria for me. It went poorly. We ended up wiping to a flying wamoura and skeleton mage combo. Everyone was suppose to be standing on top of the tank after the pull so mobs wouldn't scatter after astral flows, sleeps, and deaths. Not everyone was standing properly. I know I am guilty of this. I was standing off to the side, but not nearly as much as some others. I don't think my position had much of a negative effect. With ten to fifteen minutes left on the clock we decided to try to solo pull the manticore boss. It didn't link everything around it. Everyone did a pretty good job at damaging it. In the ten minutes we had it was brought down to one percent before we were kicked out. It is disappointing that we lost, but we had a pretty successful recovery.

Normally I don't write about Limbus. It is the same thing over and over again, but problems have been cropping up between players again. One screwed up the demon pull in Temenos North and we had four black mages on us. I had said pull. It didn't matter who, we just needed to not be standing around. I thought it was obvious this meant pull the two demons that run directly in front of us, but the two furthest away were claimed instead causing the to close ones to ultimately link. Another person pointed out the error with some comment that must have been insulting. The puller had their back up for the rest of Limbus. The puller attempted to provoke an arguement with pretty much everyone for the duration of Limbus. Fortunetly we didn't lose because of the childish antics of anyone. As I have said before, people need to learn to not take things so personally.

Last Ultima because this post needs a picture.
