My first time in Sky...

I was simply awed by how beautiful this zone is. The way everyone talks about sky I thought it was about as ugly as Delkfutt's Tower, but it's simply amazing... I even grabbed a few screen shots, this is my favorite:

Re: My first time in Sky...

Congratulations! I need to work on getting there. I think if I bug my LS friend enough he'll help me out.

It's really far less painful than a lot of people think it is. As long as you have a couple of other people who are willing to help you out on a few of the fights, you should be fine.

Re: My first time in Sky...

As long as you're focused and have a few friends who are also focused, even CoP isn't so bad. At least, IMO.

A good team is the key to 90% of this game.

I would put a checkmark here or something, but we don't have those.

Oh, wait!

Re: My first time in Sky...

I would love being part of a good team that actually got things done, but 95% of the times I'm better on my own.


PS > Congrats on getting to (Sky)

/nod I was lucky enough to have a competant CoP static, so it really wasn't that bad for me. I feel sorry for the people who don't though. Pick-up parties for CoP snoll fight isn't going to turn out good.

Raydeus, If you ever decide to set something for ZM/CoP up on Fenrir, please let me know. I'd love to get this stuff done

Onion, Congrats! It is always good to see people who are excited about the zones themselves, as opposed to just being able to do NMs

Re: My first time in Sky...

I totally agree, Sky is one of the best looking zones in the game, alongside Al'Taieu. The Zilart certainly knew how to build amazing structures.

Well that's how it worked out for my Rank 10 static. We were a great group and we worked well together. If I could find a Zilart or CoP static who didn't mind the fact that my playtime is rather limited (hey, the kids of course do come first) then I'd be golden.

Re: My first time in Sky...

I dont really think CoP is that hard with pick up parties, I shouted for all my CoP missions and I am 1/1 on every fight except the airship and mithra BC. Just dont join if the guy shouting is called Cloudxx or Sepppphirofhhiii and you should be fine, unless hes a pup or something
