I’ll start off with introducing the thread. This is a new weekly thread which I will create late every Sunday night or early Monday morning. What is the purpose of this thread? To talk about the great things that happened to us in FFXI over the weekend. Everyone post their weekend's most memorable story.
This forum is too full of threads about Gil sellers, possible Gil sellers, bots, possible bots, hacks, possible hacks, IGE, MPK etc etc etc ect. I’m tired of it, and this new weekly thread is my attempt at combating the negative energy that surrounds the forum. If it becomes popular enough – I may introduce it to the main forum. However for now, and a good while, we will remain in the server forums.
Friday night (10/29) I was a member of a truly special party. We began grouping together high ranked well known level 9 players to meet at the Maze of Shakarami. It was our plan that as we reached the Maze we would have all hit 10. The party makeup was as follows.
Bezin BLM/WHM (main job is a 75 monk)
Flippant SMN/WHM (main job is a 72 WHM I believe)
Verto PLD/WAR
Alphire SMN/WHM (main job is a 54 RDM)
Aryana BLM/WHM
Cremonte THF/WAR (main is 37ish WHM)
Ideya BLM/WHM (spelling is wrong – if you read this submit the spelling for your name and I’ll edit)
Yes that’s right – Maze of Shakhrami with 3 BLM’s, 2 SMN’s, Paladin and a Thief. Do not check your adding. This was a 7 person alliance. 7 people who traveled from all sides of the globe.
We found our camp between around 6 or 7 Maze Maker spawn points, and proceeded as a group of 7 – to gain 5 levels of experience in one sitting. Both SMN’s had a pair of astral rings. All members of the group used food. It was what being in a party is supposed to be like. Fun – safe – working like a machine.
The mages obviously nuked, pretty much non stop from a distance. Carbuncle and Shiva did constant attacks, while the Melee’s just did a drive by provoke and then out of spell distance every 15 seconds.
To the members of that party “I’ll never forget that weekend in the maze  “

10-31: I come back from a long vacation and see BASTOK in first. Normally they're third and second but now they're first...well good job. Even though I hate you guys (Windustrian) good job :P
Well, Friday night I fought Leviathan for the first time with my LS members, and a couple others. Then we went to do ZM4. We made it all the way down to the BCNM spot, when we decided to wait for 2 hours to be ready again. ~10 minutes. So I said that I would brb. I went and turned on the tv (mind you this is ~5am) and ended up falling asleep within the 10 minutes! Doh! Luckily we had another WHM with us as a 7th member (to light the lanterns). So they went in and broke the record <3!
I woke up about an hour and a half later, and told em what happened, and they were cool about it ^^. So I went in and turned in my Whisper for Leviathan.
When I logged back in later (after 0:00 jp time) I was able to accept the leviathan quest again, and headed back to jeuno. I got a party for Ifrit and we took him out =), then I got another PT to fight Leviathan. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. BLAM! I was ready for Fenrir!
After another 3.5 hours of shouting for a party for leviathan, I finally found enough to go. We headed out there and got everything ready, and headed in.
Attempts:
1: Fail
2: Fail
3: Fail
4: WIN!
Fenrir =)
So we headed back, got our items/summons and I switched over to SMN/WHM and levelled to 11. Now I have a party for Carbuncle Mitts on Friday.
Good weekend for a WHM70!

Well, I finally hit lvl 65 on my sam and participated in my first light renkei, :) unfortunately, Tachi: hobaku "iz teh sux!!!" but a 900 dmg shark bite and a 1209 dmg light renkei is quite amazing the first time you see it.

Spent the first part of sunday morning in a 18 man alliance for zilart mission 4. I have to admit, we were very unorganized for the first hour and a 1/2 seeing as how 1 pt decided to do whatever they want and kept getting killed. We all made it through Den of Rancor and to the Door. Our pt leaders all did a /random to see what order our pt's would go. Ours ended up being last. Not exactly the most exciting battle i've been in yet, but definately fun.
Afterwards the alliance disbanded and my pt went back to jeuno to start on ZM5.
Let me say this much: ZM5 Can kiss my A**!!!!!
Overall, it was completely fun traveling all over vana'diel with 6 of us. I must've burned through 4 or 5 stacks of prism powders and sneak oils. To anyone that fights in Ifrit's Cauldron.. You're F(#@*$(#$ crazy!!! LOL i hate that place. Those bombs suck.
We fought through ifrits with a very kind lvl 75 Bst who happened to be there. Our whm decided to cast invis near a volcanic bomb and he self-destructed wiping almost all of us out before i could get turned around. Later on, all 7 of us get wiped out in 1 hit due to whm again aggro'ing a bomb. Eventually getting ifrits done and forgetting to get my damn opo-opo necklace :(
Sanctuary of Zi'tah, love that place, but that giant slug sucked! Hit me hard and fast and i quickly died.
Rest of the day we spent just traveling all over and finding those headstones.
Total Deaths for me: 6
Total xp lost: 5300
Fun Factor: 8
BIG SPECIAL THANKS TO:
Artica, Kusan, Necro, Zephieus, & My Blm Buddy Kusan for taggin along through this nightmare of a day :)
