Hi all~
I am organizing a Divine Might BCNM battle with some people in my LS and was wondering if anyone here would like to participate.
Here are the preliminary details:
TIME: August 27, Sunday, Noon JP Time (August 26, Saturday 11:00 PM EST Time)
PLACE: Jeuno - Ru'Lude Garden (We will meet there and travel to BCNM together)
REQUIREMENT:
+ Access to Sky, ZM14 (You don't need to have fought any Ark Angels - this BCNM essentially replaces ZM14)
+ "Ark Pentasphere" to enter the BCNM. To get this item, you need to trade Illumink and Parchment during Full Moon. (read http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/quests.html?realm=&fquest=489 for more details)
+ Parchment can be bought off AH, but Illumink cannot be. You either have to buy it off bazaar (typically at obscene prices) or farm it yourself by fighting curse puppets right before the entrance to Hall of Gods in Ro'Maeve. These are really easy to solo for lv70+ NIN, and illumink is common drop (I got 2 in about 4-5 kills). And this place is very safe, since you can zone to Hall of Gods immediately if something bad occurs.
+ Full Moon Phase (98% - 100% Full Moon): I have already done the research for you, and the below are the times when you have to make the trade to obtain "Ark Pentasphere."
August 19, Saturday, 9-11 PM JP, 8-10AM EST
August 23, Wednesday, 5:45 - 7:45 AM JP, August 22, Tuesday 4:45 PM - 6:45 PM EST
August 26, Saturday, 2:20 - 4:20 PM JP, 1:20AM - 3:20AM EST
If you can do the required prep above, and join in the perhaps one of the most thrilling FFXI battles, please post your name and job here or /tell me in game. Thank you!!
