Partying and Horrible NM drops
Well, had a getogether again of mini-static since Kenshin was off, and when I got home, I PM'd Verrick (who wasn't on) and went straight to voicemail. Heh. So I left a message, and proceeded to go about muling to setup for my BRD just in case Verrick decided to call back or login. Somewhere in the middle of that, he did. As he mentioned on his blog, we have issues with tanks at our party level, yet for all of my amusment, a Hume BRD/WHM and Tarutaru RDM/WHM have oft-times managed to main heal. Though this party Wwcc did an admirable job as main heal, while Verrick to go play nuker for a while. ^^ I'm sure it was a welcome change for him. We were chaining well, and MP was stable, seemed like we had races to dispel the Chamber Beetles from time to time, and the WAR/NIN did an awesome job keeping hate. Slow + Elegy on the beetle plus a Haste + March makes for a nice shift in speed there. Everyone was very good, and it was overall very enjoyable. (Damn bards are about busy as RDM's! lol)
Then I vanished into my Mog House for a bit, save for using the AH and checking my plants, and got some quality Dynasty Warriors 5: Empires time. I love Koei games, they are a great escape from the stresses of the adventurer's lifestyle to escape into a world of defeating powerful enemies and legendary warriors. Well, it COULD be like that here in Vana'diel, but people are too lax with their Ballista fun. 4k from 70.
Time to fight Maat before I run onto level 70!!! Sheez, hard to level up Elemental Magic at this point, I have to heal too much in most skillup parties....VERRICK! Come duo so I can break 70! xD Last night, went out to a quick party, and got a few Elemental Magic skillups, only need about 8 more points, and I'll be capped. Fought lizards in Den of Rancor, collecting eggs to cook chocobo pastes! Fun times. Mambypandy was in that party as WHM, and apparantly, no RDM's ever try to help her out with her WHM stuff. Shame on them. Give your WHM a chance to rest, take over healing for a second, and then when your convert timer isn't quite ready, you have a nearly full-MP WHM to pick up and keep the chains going! Works quite beautifully, IMHO. Same reason I'll pick up BLM elemental enfeebles in a blink of an eye! (Actually, that's b/c they give me ele skillup casting regularly, haha! {Yes, please!}
Afterwards, the party was all warping out, and I decide to just run outside, figure i'll go play with more Tonberries to get my ZM4 more out of the way, and log outside of the Temple of Ugg. So I go la dee-da out of Den of Rancor, all buffs had worn by this point, when suddenly, WHAM! O.O 240 dmg, 140 dmg. Threw on Raven gear, and warped like my life depended on it before pondering, looking with camera to find Woodland Sage. So I asked Mamby what level was it and all, and when we heard the drops, the two of us tele'd back out and dashed over to give it a beating. After much long beating...TIMBER! And we received the glory of.... 27 xp. >.> Not even a mahogany log for our trouble. This tree annoys me, i should go skill up more on it, since it should pop now right around the time I log in tonight, haha. Makes for good hunting fun, and if those log prices are right, I might have to drag Skylee or Munami or Kenshin with me... (or all 3 for 3 x TH2!)! xD
