Farewell Maikeru

Well this is it. Server merger is tomorrow. I have yet to decide my name but here are my best choices:

1) Maikerutaru
2) Maikerurawr
3) Mootaru
4) Michael

My last day on Fairy was lame. I wasn't able to get online when everyone else was online. Oh well. I hope pwnED carries through.

As for WC... Dunno yet. I'm personally shying away from leading (or "leading") again. I'm just not interested in being serious about this game anymore. Everything is changing, and SE is taking away the most important thing to me: my identity. I have an abundance of animosity filling my range of emotions, ergo, focusing on the positive is difficult at this moment. But... watigondo.

Well, farewell for not. My future will be determined in the next few days.

More Delays

Basically I won't be setting up everything until I figure out what my name will be on Sylph. I just tried to create a character on Sylph but it looks like I'm too late. I guess whatever name I get will be what it'll be.

Usukane Sune-Ate 1/3

Short post.

Sunday I woke up right before Dynamis, which means I missed Limbus again. They did Omega but no body drop. And because I was late for Dynamis, and I also didn't sign up apparently, I got to come on SAM. Maybe I should do that more often... XD It would only cost me half my <3 Bank gil. Yep. Not worth it. Today was short and satisfying. Feel free to interpret that however you want. I logged into the shout/chat area of Aht Urhgan Whitegate and, for some random reason, I was compelled to involve myself. In the end...

I dunno.

Then it was time for pink pearl Salvage. We did Ramparts today. Gate Winow, or -----"clow" as I misread ("c" from Chigoe" next to the "l" in Barlow = "d"), decided not to show up. Next floor however...

Skirmish Pephredo spawned a miracle four times! The Sune-ate dropped the first two times, for Barlow and myself, respectively. It was pwnsome! People at the cafe were staring at me because I was verbally excited by the constant action. I need to control myself a little bit more. *^_^*

Off to Walmart and Don Quiote for food and supplies. I should be online later tonight to farm gil/zeni, depending on what Sanraku wants.

ZNM Sunday

I'm starting this ZNM Sunday group in hopes of getting a couple more seals to push for the Thursday group, as well as getting some items for those who have never done ZNM as well. Depending on the amount of people that join, the intial focus will be on Tier I and II, and a few from Hydra Path Tier III.

Swatting Flies, Faulty Token, Frog Hopping, and Loving That Bush!

As you can tell from the title, it's been a busy week.

I forgot to post this, but a two weeks back before ZNMs, Marg went after a Voyager Sallet. We got lots of rings and bandanas, but unfortunately, not helms.

That same day I did Salvage with Senkei for the second time.

Poor Harp. I bet he didn't think I was serious.

Lots of charmed fun obviously. This is one of the many times we were charmed and kited. We look adorable, but such a time waster. I really wish drop rates were higher.

On Sunday, I tried to log in. My passwords did not work. I freaked out and thought I was hacked again. Customer service was out for the weekend, so no help there. I tried to log into the SE Token website. I found that I couldn't. At this moment I came to the conclusion that there was probably something wrong with my security token.

On Monday, I contacted customer service (took about 4 hours waiting on web chat) and my deduction was correct. They disabled my one-time password and I was able to log in again. I have to mail my token in to get a new one. At least it's free.

Today we went to Dynamis-Qufim. Nothing exciting. We got a bunch of good regular AF that people red-dotted for, so can't complain. On the accessory side, we only got RNG.

After this, we did Divine Might.

From that list of names, about 13-14 of them were people who actually signed up for the event. The rest were kind-hearted and just came out to help on a whim, including Chrisstreb to whom I am totally grateful. Of that 13-14, about 6 or 7 actually needed the quest. The rest signed up to help.

It went pretty smooth. We took the four tank/kite strategy and took out the AAs one by one.

No words can express how I feel about this AA. Actually, a few words come to mind, "bitch" and "hax" being at the top of the list. I was in charge of Marg, who was in charge of EV. It was such a pain in the ass. EV has a directional cone Shield Bash which does damage and stuns which irritated the hell out of me. Marg eventually died when the alliance focused on EV, and she wiped a good portion of the alliance. But we eventually took her down.

And here is the summary:

My SAM gets a well-deserved one-up.

All in all, a good couple busy days.

Lots of busy stuff!

I really shouldn't procrastinate about updating this blog. So much happens in the span of few days that my entry will turn out to be too long! Oh well~

---Sunday---

Ah the morning begins as a mandragora and balut play with a worm... But anyway, Limbus. Time for Ultima!

It actually went pretty well! Deaths were a lot less than usual. Margulis and Clave tanked great! Good job guys! Also we had 3 SAMs, so we were spamming skillchains and magic bursting. It goes to show that old school SC+MB still does a heck a lot of damage, and should never be overlooked.

And the results:

Yay! I got the winning lot for the Cerebrum. After some D2s for the melee, I headed to Rabao.

Me and Psychosteveo celebrate!

We went to Dynamis-Beaucedine. Not much to talk about... I went afk at the beginning for about 20 minutes because the plastic holding the water from the leaky roof started to fall apart and I had to fix it. Here are the results:

WAR - Medriev, Rewt, ???
BLM - Lester, Eniko
DRG - Percy
PLD - Clave
DRK - Salazaar
COR - Salazaar, Clave, Granite
SCH - Toth, Damien
MNK - Garasu, Granite
WHM - Darkprincess
THF - Margulis

Attestation of Celerity - Rewt!!!!!

221 single coin drops

Grats Rewt! There were some other drops Xorn missed, like Damien with BLU and someone else with COR. I wish I was there when the first MNK dropped so I could have lot. Darn I need it to store the set. >_<

~~~Monday~~~

Nyzul as usual. We did 4 runs today. We got mauled with shitty floors. It was unbelievable. We managed to defeat the first three runs by some miracle, but got absolutely no drops. Nyzul doesn't want me to have my Denali Bonnet. =(

I spent the rest of the evening leveling PLD. I got it to 67 and then did some campaign. I woke up this morning (Tuesday) to do more campaign and hit 68. Only a couple more levels before Joyeuse so I can earn more AN! This is a really crappy situation because I need about 140k more AN before I can exp on PLD seriously. ;_; Darn you I.R. awesomeness!

I've already decided that my next job to level to 75 will be BLU. Damn you Faeryl! But I guess it makes sense. I stopped leveling BLU 2 years ago because I refused to be a gimp BLU w/o sea. Now that I have sea, I can resume.

Oh it will be glorious...

Time for work! Adios and Aloha!

Like a roller coaster ride...

Today really had its ups and downs. It was a bit scary to get through, but through I got!

First off drama! I really shouldn't talk about it... but let's just say there's a trust issue... I feel a little betrayed... but these days where idiocy runs amok... I don't blame them. I just hope we can just get past this and move on. I hate being pressured, especially in this GAME. Please remember we are here to have fun. Get that elitist stick out of your hole and let's just make this time of our lives worthwhile.

But anyway! To success! IMalloreonI vs. Proto-Omega! To our amazement, Omega's Heart dropped! If you didn't know, the heart only drops as the third item of a set of three items. Kriptin received the well-deserved Heart whilst Airaa got the Omega's Tail and I got the Omega's Foreleg! Woot! 4/5 Homam Corazza Set!


22% haste! ^^

Off to Dynamis - Bastok! I sponsored today's run and got 325x One Byne Bill. We cleared the run with almost an hour to spare. I feel really bad for linkshells that can't even defeat this one. It's not all about skill, but also about leadership and teamwork. I'm proud to say that /pwnED/ has refined its runs to be as smooth as possible. Because I sponsored, I was not allowed to lot AF2. Luckily our AF drop in abundance for cities and I was able to get Etoile Tiara and Mirage Shalwar .



Summoner's Bracers dodge me again! I will get you one day at 40+! The Summoner's Bracers -1 have been sitting in storage for a while. I really hope Azulmagia doesn't see this post. The BLU AF2 legs are pretty awesome, and he can't seem to get a pair of them. And here I am, getting them for free when my BLU is only 42. ^^;; Sometimes I wish you could give away rare/ex items...

You know what really sucks about lending gear to people? Most will return them. But if you forget about it until you need it... ARG!!!

So I lent my Blau Dolch to someone... I hope it's Margulis...

That's it for today. Maikeru signing off! Aloha!

P.S.
I'm looking for a guide for THF WS setup. If you can help, let me know!
