Picture duuuump

Too busy to actually post an entry, so just dumping the corresponding pictures, will talk about them later!

Yes been pretty busy, will post more later!

Herpin and Derpin

Well, things have been going pretty goooood. Have gotten lotsa things, done lotsa things, and seen lotsa things.

First things first, a recount of our adventures in Abyssea. As you know we are on a quest for grape gloves and grape shoes. Our hunt for grape shoes meets us stalking the elusive Brooder. This guy is pretty stingy on his boots. Doesn't ever want to put out, and I can understand. Some people I know are the same. (Not naming any names :b) Well on one fight we managed to trigger the !! with a Dancing Edge. Low and behold, the monster relinquished his footwear and I obtained a pair of Serpentes Sabots! After a couple more kills we got another !! off of Savage Blade, and Senseireborn obtained his pair.

Here's a pic of how my RDM currently looks now:

Also there has been more Abyssea action. On Tuesday we fought Cuelebre the fearsome dragons of rocks and pebbles. It was an interesting fight. I had never brought any more than 7 and we had 18! It went pretty smoothly up until the part where some certain RNG pulled hate and nearly wiped the alliance. But other than that it went pretty smoothly.

That kill netted us with. . . an Auric Dagger! I was pretty nervous because I knew a lot of people were wanting it, so I closed my eyes and cast my lot. I won! Now I have this pretty nifty dagger to poke things on my Dancer!

Current Dancer Setup (TP): 

Unfortunately, the next time we tried to claim him, a stupid RDM was trying to solo the damn thing. Yeah, he died. So we claimed it two more times but alas there were no more daggers to be had. Don't worry Oroka we'll get you one!

Also Senseireborn, Oroka, and I finished Whither the Whisker and obtained another Abyssite of Celerity and can now obtain stones every 12 hours!!

Oh and one more thing: Senseireborn, Oroka, and I are offering to sell Serpentes Cuffs, Unkai Nodowa, Varangian Helm, and Charis Necklace. Check out Oroka's FFXIAH page to find out more. ;o

Nyzul has been moving on at a steady pace. Though I finding less and less reason to do it. I really want to start either working on Captain Rank and doing Salvage or something else entirely. And that's pretty much all that has to be said about that.

Dynamis has been pretty much the same old same old. Getting lots of new members, lets see who I can remember off the top of my head. Khira, Beastrider, Mystickitten, Sirsoran. All welcome additions to our team.

Had a Tornado Warning in out city the other day, was kinda freaky. Funny thing was we were having a garage sale too. I guess the powers that be didn't want to freakin garage sales. I manage to make 20 dollars. Which is ok I guess. Was hoping to sell my Guitar Hero: World Tour set and make some moolah, but it didn't :<. 

Well thats all for today, here are some random screenshots.

Oh and a picture of a BAMF:

Adventures in Abyssea

Woowee, sorry for the picture dump. Been doing alot lately. Lots of Abyssea. Getting everyone Serpentes Cuffs, and Serpentes Sabots. Gotten 3 sets of gloves now, making Shawn, Arlenz, and Me so far with the gloves. Have killed Brooder about 8 times, no boots yet :<. Gotten most of my jobs to 85, still need to work on COR, and I'm debating whether or not to take BLM past 75. Not doing good on gil and those spells are expensive ><.

In other news, SHAWN GOT HIS RDM hat. Congratulations man, well deserved.

Also Halo: Reach has come out, very solid game. Really enjoying it. Probably the best (of course) Halo game. Took alot of stuff and polished it to a blinding shine. Campaign was a tad short, but really well done. Liked the ending, but, I WANT TO KNOW WHATS GOING ON WITH MASTER CHIEF. Get to work on that Bungie :b.

Thats all for today, see ya'll later.

Lulz and Lolz and even a few rofls

Greetings and salutations, not much has been going on lately. Still playing FFXI. Joined a new LS that looks promising. Its still new and hasn't fully gotten off the ground yet though, but I look forward to working in it to get lots of new loot. Been doing the same ol' same ol' though. Talking to Shawn, Ty, Jason, Antzy, Arlenz, Doreen, Paud, and Ev still. Been leveling, laughing and all that good stuff.

Oh, funny story. So I had leveled my SCH to level 15 with Shawn and them in the dunes right? Well last night I was like "Well damn, I need to be level 12 to do a summoner burn". So I hop out to Valkurm Dunes, set my homepoint there and proceed to die a bazillion times on SCH until I was level 12. Then I put my party flag on and waited. And waited. And waited some more. Just when I was about to give up, I finally got an invite. But, fortune as it turned out, would not be on my side. So I get there... the PLD is sitting there holding all the mobs already. I run up, they put sync on... and proceed to die. At this point my thought were "Yeah this isn't going to work, maybe I should leave". Oh how I regret not doing so. But unfortunately on of them was like: "Hey Allyie, your name sound familiar. Do I know you from somewhere?"

At that point, I felt kinda obligated to stay. Yeah, yeah, I know, "But Ryan you so frequently abuse force D/C, why not just D/C from this group?" Well sometimes I just like to be a nice guy, ya know? Anyway, after a successful Wild Card from me, we head out again for attempt #2. So after several hours of drunken ramblings (Yes I somehow found myself in their skype call) we finally start and... they mess it all up. I left that place as a level 16, boy that was sure worth it.

Also have been keeping up at the Abyssea Notorious Monster hunts. Got Arlenz his pillaging helm this morning, which makes the 3rd helm we've gotten for people. Its really nice to be able to just run in there with a small group and get awesome things for people. Anyway thats all for today. Enjoy these silly screenshots.

Joining the WHM club.

So yeah I got WHM to 75, now to get it fully merited and to 80. Now since I have nothing else worth blogging.

MITHRA PICTURES

Abyssea and Trial of the Magians.

So yeah, the newest expansion of Final Fantasy XI, Visions of Abyssea has launched and I must say that it is AWESOME. Not just awesome but JAWESOME. 50-60k/hr parties, awesome NM's and drops. Probably THE best expansion for FFXI in a long time. Anyway, I've been leveling my jobs to 80, except BLM. I've also started leveling WHM. I went in as a level 45 WHM to open chests for the group and ended up getting level 65 in about 5 hours.

Also there are tons of NM's to fight inside Abyssea. One of the ones we fought was a tiny Mandragora NM Cacagaunah or w/e. Drops a pretty sweet ammo piece called the Thew Bomblet STR+2 Attack +8 for my MNK SAM and DNC. Also we're going to be going after another NM tonight called Cuelebre. Drops the Auric Dagger, Enhanced "Dual Wield" for DNC, pretty sick.

Anyway been starting to do Limbus with peeps from my LS. Its been going well, working on an Ultima and an Omega chipset and so on.

OMGWTFSCREENSHOTS











But yeah, I'm gonna continue to work on WHM. Hope to be 80 soon :). Also Nyzul has been going pretty good, almost gotten everything I've wanted from it. That's all for today. Will blog laters.
