BLM - PLD - confused

Just some /random skill ups that I got in the last week.

Parrying

This one was in Limbus - which is always fun. Still hoping for some Homam body and Homam pants to finish up the set. I have heard of leveling Parrying on Chigoe outside of Nashmau - I might try that one day when I am bored on RDM/WAR see how it goes.

Staff Skill

I have been wanting to tank some on my PLD with staff - lack of skill has prevented me from attempting this though. So I have decided to try and get my staff at least to a respectable level - Spent some time in Crawlers nest with Nyena one day - some more solo and then even some more time with Bubbo the {Monk}ey. I have gone from 103 - 146 very noticeable difference in Accuracy and damage.

BLM level 70!!!

Still leveling with Erebus on Thursday's and reached level 70 this past week and currently I am sitting at 1k ~~> 71. We moved camp to the underseas ruins on .... you guessed it more Qiqirn =P.
They are fun to kill, being the range attack only type enemy, with low HP. The range attack hit for around 100 per shot, which isn't bad and allows you to at least get one drain per kill. Throw a stun in there once a battle also just to try and keep your skill up, go go Dark magic skill!!!



The other thing I noticed that I love about this area is the double water weather all the time >.> with my level I also found water IV ^^ This one spell in this area made a huge difference on our kill time




The damage difference with Water IV is very noticeable and the xp is still very good Duo at level 70. I guess we will see about level 71....I hope it stays good /crosses fingers.

Nyzul Isle

So for the last two weeks we have done the Nyzul Isle assault on Tuesday evening.

Week one ended with us finishing up to floor 10 - the furthest I have been on this assault.

The party for this was setup by Ennayram(BST) and includes Nyena(RDM), Bubbo(MNK), Loren(PLD) and was supposed to be Azurea(BRD) - last night we had a stand in Belan(BLU) who did a nice job with healing/buffing us.



This week's goal was to get to floor 20...we did just that! We started on floor 11 and got to floor 15 with our first tag, leaving three more tags to reach floor 20. With each tag we actually got to floor 20 and beat the boss 2x the third time we only had about 1min left upon reaching the floor so no attempt.

First time to floor 20 we ended up with Fafnir

Second time we had Fafnir also but no time to finish >.<; Third time we got Behemoth

For our efforts we were rewarded with two wonderful pieces of armor:

1. Goliard clogs



2. Askar gamberias



I don't think we could've asked for a better start to this static assault team. Thank you!!

Jailer of Fortitude

This Jailer hates us soooooooo much!!!

We went 0/3 again on this thing /stare



- How I hate thee Jailer of Fortitude!!!

It was three very clean fights - I think only two deaths from the BLM's, but what would you expect =P maybe just maybe next time we will be lucky and get a freaking torque to drop. I am very sad for our PLD, they so deserve some drops.

Paladin - Parrying

Not like there isn't anything else to do in the game, but I am also leveling Paladin. I have been static with Nyena on her WHM since the 40's - gotta have a good WHM!!

Anyway with leveling PLD I have been lucky enough to get some parrying skill ups also - which we all know are hard to get. Last night I got 175 ^^ - only 94 more until cap on THF and 50 more until cap on PLD.

Shield also hit 200 last night on PLD which caps it for both other jobs I have (RDM & THF) - just a nice little extra.

Anyway just a short little post about a job I am really having fun playing.

Black mage

Every Thursday I have been lvln Black mage with a friend (Erebus). We have been duoing like this for the last couple of months - its not the fastest lvln, but it is fun^^.

Anyway I just reached 69 yesterday and while Erebus was there, he was not in party (he wasn't feeling well and left party). So I ended up solo the last 15k of my level and the first little bit of 69. Always get a buffer in case you have a resist and just cant recover =P


A couple reason's why its good to have a lvln buddy:

1. You have a buddy to chat with
2. It's safer if you have a resist with sleeps or nukes
(These Qiqirn don't resist much but every once in a while you will find one you need to Elemental seal - sleep II)

These Qiqirn are great xp for Solo upwards of 431 for chain#2 with no ring - standard xp solo on these was between 300-345 no chain. When I lvld to 69 the xp dropped to 240-260 per kill no chain. I think it might be time to switch camps - I will wait for Erebus to catch up he is 68 at the moment and might get a few more resists.

More to come soon!!

Far Behind

I had set this blog up to keep up with what I was doing in game...but have found little time to manage it with playing the game and RL.

Anyway I will try and get to it more often then once every 3months ; ;

Here is a picture I took over the holiday that I really liked.

Anyway what have I been doing in game...
