What Did You Do Last Night In FFXI?

Just trying to get a goodwill thread going to talk about some of the positives of things we did in game lately rather than a lot of the negative trolling that's been posted.

If you're going to post, please don't be negative, this is not a my last night was better than your last night, just a chance to share in some of the things that we all get up to.

To kick it off:
Last night was Limbus, we had a heap of people and I probably should have split it up into 2 runs to farm Temenos but I was a bit lazy. Our PLD forgot to change sub from BLM but we told him to leave it because we had lots of people and we all laughed at our PLD/BLM main tanking. Followed up with some KS30 Royal Rumble and got an OIngot and DCloth.

Positive things?

I didn't play FFXI.

That's positive to me.

I did my first manaburn PT on BLM last night. We sync'ed to 28 in Zi'Tah and fought Goblin's Leeches. When our syncee hit 32 we got a new one that was 27 and got her to 31. I went from 42-48 (almost 49). :3

Nice way to be positive...

I did everything that Karu did (also laughed harder when everyone died to Astral Flow > Sweep and our pld/blm was one of the last few people left alive)

But then killed some poroggo NM in Mamook (you know that really *** long CS you all accidently got when they moved the sanction NPC? yeah... that one) Then killed Zarool Ja's Pkuucha or w/e it is on the way back.

What did you think of your first manaburn? I'm gonna have to drag BLM out soon and bump that up to 75 but looking so blah solo'ing all that way. I like the companionship of exp'ing with people, the talking and socialising.

And I got to /dance4 on everyone :D
We have a thing in our linkshell that if you die, prepare to be /dance4'd on.

Logged on sat there for 5 mins and sd "not tonight" and logged off.

After beating a severely nerfed Long Bowed Chariot thereby helping to complete an LS pal's Ares Body piece, I spent the next hour cheering and dancing with Mumor to get my useless but cute event item o_o

If my levelling buddy can't make it tonight, maybe I'll bum around in Rabao with Mei the drugged-out Goldfish Scooping NPC and work towards making useless but cute cage furniture for my friends :3

Turned Tenzen into a pile of ash for two LS mates!
Crafted a lot of Crayfish and turned them in for guild points...
then logged I was tired.

Rowr, last night was Dyna-Glacier. Had to go BLU again but minding it less and less since my BLU is getting shinier now! Our 2nd of 3 Mirage Bodies dropped last night, too, and while I got the first, due to my notoriously bad lots I can only assume I'll be dead last on Mirage cap. lol

Only annoying part was during charmga when a BLM ran us MALMS and MALMS away from camp. lol -. -;

Moogle Kupo d'Etat 9 I think it is. The long *** collection in Quicksand Caves. Glad to have it done but it doesn't quite top the weekend before it when I finally finished ACP11, did Nyzul for the time and helped out a random /sh in wg for DRK AF helm fight after finally finishing getting my nin to 37. Lord I dislike that job.

I was being a spoony bard on qufim island.

Did some Dyna-Valk (-1 headpiece /cheer) an ISNM puk run (dragon talon ftl) and some BST duoing with my husband (ding lvl 66!) A good night.

Where'd you party on your BST?

After the day before going 0/45 on THF Testi, yesterday I went 1/2. Met up with Maat in Waughroon Shrine and proceeded to kick his old ***.

Then I decided since I already had a PLD Testi on me I would mule my PLD gear. I had to wait 2hours for my timer/medicated effect to wear. So I setup a standing/defense set and an accuracy/str ws set. Went into Wajaom and started soloing Decent Challange Lesser Colibri as PLD66. One of my vorpal blades landed for 1000+ damage so I was sure I was ready.

Met up with Maat at Qu'Bia Arena and again kicked his old man *** without breaking a sweat. I think I only used sentinel, one yagudo drink and I popped my 2hr at the end just to be sure he didn't try anything silly.

On my high of defeating him 2/2 I went to farm up a DRK testi from the Orcish Warlord NMs in Monastic Cavern. Wiki says 50% drop rate, but I went 1/5. Geared up DRK, went back to Qu'Bia Arena and I ended up losing. I hit my macros out of sequence and fubar'd it.

Was going to 2hr, souleater, last resort, then do Guillotine -> TP Wing -> Guillotine... but I hit my TP Wing macro before my first Guillotine and one 200% TP Guillotine took him to about 60%, not quite enough.

Either way, it was a good day =)

I tried to go to Pruggo Isle, but kept D/C'ing every 5min. >.> Miss the manaclipper and preceeded to wait for the next one and D/C just as it came in. Finally got on to one, then found out I ran out of tickets.

Dynamis Sandy. it sucked balls, I was on BRD so I got to read all the way through it though.

The usual for me and my tiny LS (Aubrei & Louanne)last night, FOVing out in K.Highlands. Got BLM to 15 and swapped it out for SCH. Still need to get MNK & PUP to 15. The on to V. Dunes!!!! Ugh, the aggony!

I harvested and planted a new crop on my 3 lolgardening mules (former gear mules to which I've given a new purpose). After that, I stood around in Whitegate checking out the /shouts while chatting with friends in LS who I rarely see logged into the game these days. When they finished their ENM run and logged out, I quickly became bored and also logged out. Instead of messing around in-game, I ended up doing paperwork, playing with the dog, and watching a little TV last night.

skilled up throwing 1-177.

As a ranger i felt a bit embarrassed about my gimped skill.

so I got me the best boomerang on available to me and started skilling up.

gonna see if i can at least get it to 190 solo and ask one of my bst friends to help me with steelshells afterwards.

Let's see, in game I:

-Farmed Beadeaux coffer key.
-LS mates and myself went and tried to help a fellow LS mate get his pop item for Thief's Knife. No drop, though, I had to go after an hour, so we stopped then.
-AFK'd for a long time like I always do.
-Gathered for Nyzul, and shouted for our last 2 members because 1 was MIA and the other left for some reason.
-Floor 20: O! Of course, my booties didn't drop. :[
-Tried to figure out which pick up would be best for our Nyzul static, came to a conclusion after much debate.
-Found Bea coffer, got my old gauntlets.
-Played with Dark Spark while half asleep, ended up taking 30mins solo. >_>;
-Finished quest, got my Healer's Mitts, and went to bed. n_n

I love that gag

soloed blm... /sigh... oh also ZNM's and Dyna windy

Did my first einherjar last night. was pretty fun, only a couple people in my ls had done it before. we didn't get clear, but we only had 17 people go lol. did end up walking out with 960 ichor though.

was gonna level rdm some more, but an ls member asked for help getting their pimp hat. so went and helped with the doll nm, actually killed it twice. once for ls mate, and again for a sam who died trying to solo it.

after that i didn't feel like lfg, so i logged out and went to bed.

Hey, it might be boring.. but it teaching you some good skills on how to save your *** when doing events and such. Like always keeping stoneskin/blink on, reraise up, twitchy sleep(ga) finger, stun etc =)

Dynamis-Xarc and it was pretty good only 4 drops but were melee crown, rdm hat, thf gloves, and smn horn so i cant *** since we only had 18 people

You can only learn so much before you pretty much have the basics covered. <.<;

After wanting it for like 3-4 years I finally got my rdm hat...practically for free lol

Lol do alot of low man events... youll find alot of people out there need lots and lots of practice to learn those basics to the point where they actually do them when push comes to shove... and some never learn. Theres also not waking non gravitied mobs 1 sec after there slept when they are beating the crap out of someone with 100hp...

... Guess it depends on what else you had to do. And possible who you had to do it with

wish i had my duelist hat
