/toss a peryton on the fire
/em Roasted peryton good eats

As a war it takes a while to get a party so on an invite I jump at the chance. I get invited to share tanking with another War/Ninja in the Valley of Sorrows.

A good group actually even without a BLM we had WHM, RDM, WAR, WAR, SAM, THF. We chained quickly and owned mobs even the dreaded Peryton which really was a test but still went down and only had one death of course I got killed from a from one Triple Attack but still it wasn't to bad since the xp was coming like rain.

Then the whm and thf has to leave and I start to think oh man this isn't good especially when a SAM and A Summoner shows up as replacements. I really doubted this would work but to my surpise we worked like a smooth knife through butter it was amazing how fast we gained over 12k xp and cleaned the clock of the peryton's and Raptors in the areas it was a skillchain fest. Shocked an amazed at how well the summoner mixed healing and avatar use without missing a beat.

I still can't belive how well that strange group worked but happy it did one step closer to 61 I only wish we could have partied longer shows maybe it is the players not the classes that make the difference.....

wow 65 nice ^^, i wish i was that high, but with the no party invites, and the whole running a LS thing, and the fact that I have for the longest time, been lvling all my jobs to at least lvl 20, sort of cuts into my higher lvling :P

Hey, Kinam, I'm curious as to where you are. I'm in Lakeland, in a thankfully strong apartment complex that didn't take any damage (ok, the Tiki torch on the patio fell over). My parents & sister live over in Winter Haven and they lost power for like 4 days. My roommates both left the day of the storm, but I stayed to hold down the fort (read: play FFXI). All was well, though...I gained 2 levels with my Ranger that day.^^

*The fire goes out. Chloe starts to reach for the lighter fluid when Xellith just casts a fire 1 to get the whole thing going again*

Went for my first coffer today ing arliage citadel... Was a little daunting. a level 75 whm started helping me. then my friend Parvatiiv. then my other friend Huiling... then we help level 50 get explosure core for LB1... then parvatiiv dies... then we raise parvatiiv... then we geet to gate 3 to open it for huiling... then huling runs through the 3rd gate... and for some reason the 50 theif decides to go in too... -_- i warp 2 the thief and he doesnt come back... huiling comes back.

We get to 2nd gate this time go in and all is ok. Par goes to play summoner for other friend. My other so called "friend" avero who is 55 war/ninja wont help because its his RSE week... i mean why would a war/nin need RSE at that level...

There is link and i escape me and the whm. huiling had gone off someone looking for coffer. So i escaped and there is no coffer key drops.

And thats my horror story.

*Throws a chunk of Giant Sheep Meat on the fire*
I just thought I would share an accomplishment I am proud of and never thought I would be able to do. The other day I was leveling Ranger in Yhoator Jungle and party ended. Now I didn't have a scroll of instant warp and as everyone knows the most common way of getting out of Yhoator jungle is blood warping lol. Well I decided to test the strength of my RNG/NIN which had Alertness and Stealth Traits and the ability Camofluage and set out on foot back to Kahzaam. Two uses of Camoflauge and some hairy moments around goblins later I meandered my way into Kahzaam without a single agro :-) I was so proud and astonished.

*Sticks a hot dog on his scythe and puts over fire*

Well the other day I was in the dunes and I just got a party. Everyone was level 17 and 18 and we decided to try and take pugils. Needless to say....we got raped....3 of our members home pointed to Selbina and find raises, and the other 3 (Me included) just stayed on the ground. Then these 3 players come(none of which had a subjob). The warrior (I wont say his name cause that would not be right) goes and sits on my head, using the emotion "Sits on killiks face". Their whitemage says: "Wow you guys sucks lol". And the last one just does emotions about beers (Nothing wrong with that). Anyways I get sick of them and I homepoint, and when I come back one of our party members friends comes and ressurects us. We all talk for a while, then he is about to take off when their person who sat on my face says: "RAISE NEEDED AT <pos> PLZ!!!". The guy keeps saying it for a good 5 minutes (Once every 10 seconds about). And we ask the white mage who just ressed us to not res them, or my suggestion start raising them and then cancel (I know that is very mean, but I was kind of mad about how rude they were earlier). It just proves that old saying...What goes around comes around....or was that karma....oh well either or.

*Notices the hot dog is completely burnt and casts water on it*

*sits up*

lately it seems like i can't get a party invite until i sit around for a few hours and then have to log off... it gets very frustrating. Im a 42 thf/nin by the way. I have tried to form my own parties too with no luck, i can usually get 3-4 members but no more than that.

*walks up and pets the kittys then has a seat*


i just wanted to tell a story about the dunes, and it's not a horror story!
i was sitting around as a 14rng/7nin when i get invited to a pt... so i accept. 2 nin, a bst, and 2 rdm.... then me, a rng. oh man, this pt was so sweet i wanted to cry. i had like 50 exp into my 14th lvl, and 2 and a half hours later i was less than 500 xp from 19!!!! it was crazy. no downtime, constant pulling(by me of course), rdm's taking turns on the healing/nuking and regening mp, and the bst..... just hacking away through it all with the occasional heal or status cure, the nin's carrying out blink tanking with perfect precision, and me making everything look like a ghetto porcupine with my arrows(used around 800 in that pt). we chained snips in the dunes to chain #5 for upwards of 260xp each till 16 then headed to korroloka tunnel to chain land worms for around 240 each. i don't remember any names, but i give them props for being awesome ppl and knowing how to pt. that's my 2 gil.

wow that sounds like an awsome party... i wish i could get an awsome party... Well if there are any of you around lvl 42 please party with me lol. Last night i finally got a party after waiting for 2 hours, and then i only got to play with them for 1 hour and we only got about 1200 exp total... so it wasn't a huge success. I still have about 5700 tnl.

*Finishes his sheep meet and sits back content*
I was in Jueno yesterday and didn't want to pay chocobo prices so I decided to Blood Warp back to Bastok. I changed my character to a level 1 BST since I haven't leveled BST and started across Rolenberry fields. Well after a while I decided to see how far I could get before somethingg killed me. I walked all the way from Jueno to Bastok as a level 1 BST/ level 1 NIN and was never aggrod.

Thanks for the dogs Kloe =) i was kinda hungry /em grin

hey, i got a freaky story for ya'll, here it goes :

I was minding my own business in San D'Oria when i hear this guy shouting for Garrison, I say to meself "why not, i sure would love to get my mannequin feet" so i send a /tell his way and all is good, we go to the outpost in West Ronfaure with a full alliance and start pounding Orc @$$. When its all said and done, the alliance leader quartermastered every single item and hurried to log off and he left a bunch of pissed off people sitting in the grass...now i'm sure you've all had scarier times but to me, it sure was hell on earth . I died, so no cash for me and i lent my sword, since i was using ninja, to another guy and he never gave it back to me, i hate losing 10k like this, sucks big time =(

Hey there! Got a spot for one more?

I've been playing for a few days, definitely a newbie. But I gave 500gil to someone newer than I, last night. You know, trying to be a nice future Paladin and all. Got gratitude in the form of insults since my attention was diverted IRL and he was trying to chat with me (of course I told him I had to go afk) but whatever. He got aggro from an Orc and I lapsed from my conviction and didn't help him. Bad, I know, but it's done and I've attoned for it.

I did get to join a party for the first time and made back my money plus.

Thanks Kloe! *munches on smore*

I partied with a Mithra named Redbear last night. Boy, was that a good breaking in period for tanking. If all you Mithra are that feisty, I definitely have to keep my armor updated and be on it with my provokes.

It's pretty nuts partying. The first time, my axe skill spiked to 30 (and up until around then, I mostly used a sword... don't hit me!). Last night I started with G.Axe and before I stopped for the night, it spiked to 25. Damage is unreal (in comparison from the sword) but the delay is killing me.

Anyhoo... *passes around some fruit punch*
