Yeah you can alliance. I've been involved in a couple WST key hunting PTs. Some say it increases your chance of a drop, some say decreases. I just say zone after every drop, it's worked for me without fail so far. *crosses fingers*
JackyBob, I'm most likely going to be leveling my 29WAR/NIN tonight with my whm, rng, and rdm friends from the LS. If you get to 28 or 29 let me know. I think they're at 30. We level in the jungle, but not on mandys or gobs. :-b
As far as the G1 items, I can solo the stupid Exo's, I did it for a 50BRD a week ago (ok so that was technically a "duo"), The bombs will only really mess me up if they explode early and I don't have TP for Shoulder Tackle (man I hate to see 1300 hp gone in one shot ><), but the linking and low HP aggro from those Fallen Soldiers just sucks.
I welcome anyone that wants to help (obviously) but to make it more fun for a PLD, I'll even challenge you to hold hate from me on the bones. :-b The only one to date that's done well at it is Scythe and I'm assuming it's because he was 5 levels higher than me at the time. LoL. You've got to make G1 fun some how. LoL. That's why Meign and I were having Raging Fists competitions in Garliage Citadel while hunting our coffers. The quest just sux ><.
