And so began the meriting...uh, looking for party frenzy.
Nobody wanted to party with me, so I went to kill stuff (mainly time) in Sea for a bit (the outside area is reaaaly nice, I just don't go there much so I get to appreciate it more when I actually do. Anyway, time there was spent killing stuff for a Relaxing earring. 2/5 on organs, 1/5 on tissue for that (out of about 20 kills, orz).
Discontented with the poor drop rate, I shouted at an Aern's head. I made sure to ridicule his preferance for the weird space music that the play in that area. I went back another time with Arc (on BLM) which made for much faster kills, but no drops that time (THF next time methinks!). I also managed to die to Aern aggro (or what I thought was aggro, brought about by my hurtful remarks made earlier) which was actually down to an accidental sleepga that I didn't notice.
After more seeking and monitoring shouts in whitegate, I join a FL assault shout for Ilrusi Atoll.
(Goblin Dude) Hey, I bet you guys can't kill this Khimaira!
We did.
Wasn't too hard, we had the JP NIN kite the goblin and hold it by the entrance (he did a great job, only lost 200 or so HP on his own for the whole fight, I gave him a little /cheer at the end so he didn't feel alienated from the group). Then everyone else was free to fight Khim - we were lucky not to see any Fulminations from it.
13 more clears to Captain!
I upgraded my Thalassocrat!
...to a signed Thalassocrat. :o
Not that I actually know the person who signed it, but the previous owner needed to sell it and didn't want to lose the name, so I swapped mine.
This was followed by yet more seeking and then a party invite!
..then the leader told me the person I was replacing had logged back on.
Fortunately this meant I didn't miss a shout for Shadows of the Departed (pre-requsite for Apocalypse Nigh) all went well.
One step closer to an Ethereal Earring! wooo
I tried seducing Esha'ntarl, but she was too caught up in talking about fighting stuff. :(
Eventually I did get a party, Arc was leveling SAM from 73~75 so I went to prod stuff at Mamool Ja staging point for a couple of hours.
Second place :(
But considering I lost by only 2.5% (counting wyvern damage) to a Black Belt MNK/WAR, there's no hard feelings here.
Arc was 73~74 SAM/NIN, and Ilanthe was a MNK/NIN
Only 82% accuracy for me (ate meat, no acc boosts - march/minuet), but alot of that might be oweing to the fact that Puks are dicks. I never really felt like I was missing alot, even on the NIN mamools.
