Post your FFXI goals of the week!

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

I'd be happy to switch, but my only requirement would be that I need to take Hayde and Cid with me. Fire and Jarre play with us too and I'd be happy if they came as well... but Cid and Hayde are the required companions.

Hayde might. I know he's got the extra money right now because my god... he started a 30 day free trial of a second account and is about to run it dry and start paying for it at this point. If he would just cancel that and use the money for a server change... it would probably work out to about the same.

As for Cid... I know he's balls deep in GW2 and isn't moving from there for at least another month. We'll be lucky to see him online at all... much less spending anything to change to Cerberus.

Jarre and Fire might... but to be honest I have no idea how willing they would be to drop $25 on a server hop. I suppose it's entirely up to them.

On the bright side, if at least hayde and I moved to Cerberus with you and Squiggs, you'd be inheriting 2 Kannagi NINs and an Armageddon COR... among other things. You certainly can't say that would be a bad thing to get, lol.

My play times are typically weekday nights and weekend days right now. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I play from around 8:00-9:00pm EST and go until around 1:00am. Thursdays and Fridays I dont usually log on for more than an hour or so. Every other Saturday is D&D and you won't see me log on... but every other alternate Saturday I'll be on for 5-6 hours in the afternoon. Sundays are a wildcard and mostly hit or miss and Mondays I typically play in the afternoon.

8PM-12PM CST is what... 2 hours behind EST? So you're on from 6:00pm-10pm EST? If you can extend those play times a little further out into the night, I can promise at least 2 nights/week. If you can't play past 10:00pm it would be a little tough for me to get on that early.

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

What are your play times again? Anything near 8pm – 12pm CST most weeknights?

If so, I say make the switch as long as it doesn’t create much tension between anyone on this site. Infact encourage some of the others to switch too (cid/hayde(sp)…etc).
I’m the pearl holder, I got plenty of pearls to hand out

I can’t promise anyone release from abyssea (because peeps will always want +2s and emps) but I can promise I’ll do what I can to setup Salvage/Einherjar/Limbus/Legion/(insert fun event) type things.

I would love to give new Limbus bosses a try.

Hell even doing sky stuff to get some good augmented gear is fun.

I’m more stoked about trying Einherjar for the Odin fight than I am for the Ichor.

And have you seen some of the badass Neo-Nyzul 100 pieces? By no means easy to get but dyamn!

- - - Updated - - -

Hmmm, I really wanna try Einherjar Rom, don't think I can make it this week, but defo would like to try it.

Its very hard to set up so everyone can go. Because I know Teak and Rook want in and I’m sure a dozen others in the shell do too.
And not everyone is on the same nights.

the good thing is if peeps can prepare in decent time, its not a very long event. i think its 30 minutes with no exentions. so just peeps traveling time (which you and i know what thats going to be like).

Sadly though, its a 3day recharge.

How about this…I may do some runs without you, but I’m make sure not to progress to higher tiers without ya.
I’ll try and spam the first 3 wings till the majority of peeps have those clears.

I want a pretty E.Body evetually!
and i need 100k Ichor lol, so another event i'll be doing for a long time.

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

I'm trying, man. I'm trying. I'm not looking forward to the 9 Ardors I need for PUP body. As it turns out... I didn't have any at all stored up. At least for the other pieces I have at least 1 or 2 stockpiled in my mogsack... but nope... not for PUP body.

And from what I've looked up... it seems like that one is going to be a repeated nightmare. It's the one that drops from Apedick, the Fairy in Grauberg and Hedjedjet.

Fun times...

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

You are moving a lot faster on that than I am Yyg, good for you.

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

Romy... everything you say makes me watch to transfer to your server to participate. I still want to finish all my salvage wins (currently 1/4), all my assults (currently 15/50) and moar einherjar (currently never even participated).

Sure... I get a lot done where I am and the guys I play with are great... but the things they do arent the things I really want to do. When I'm done with my Empy +2 equipment... what then? Voidwatch? Fat chance on that.

I really want my Salvage/Assault/Mercenary Rank/Einherjar/Limbus done...

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

I think this week I’m going to start Einherjar runs. Probably tomorrow (thurs)

Not sure exactly what to do. so if anyone has any input…please pass it along
From what I understand it’s similar to old dynamis. Get entrance item, go to zone, trade to members and enter.
Seems like you need 6 people and they basically put you in a big room with a bunch of mobs for 30 minutes…that the gist of it?

If I can’t get enough LS members to go, I’ll probably just drop a shout or two. Already had a few ramdons send me tells on if I have Einherjar LS.

Pretty sure the first wings are easy enough even with PUGs.

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

I need Ni scroll to so can tag along and help

[Firewind]

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

Anyone interested in forming up an Under Observation spam group? Still need an Utsusemi: Ni scroll but I have no problems at all with the rewards being pooled and if more than one scroll drops, the cost of the scroll being subtracted from my share of the profit if I can take one.

Days I'm free:

Friday to Monday - Any time.
Tuesday and Thursday nights - Evening GMT but can push it to later.
Wednesday Nights - Just the evening GMT.

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

My goal is to stop having FFXI disconnect every 5-10mins. I didn't have this problem before when I played. =(

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

Really a Linkshell goal list.
Get everyone up to Rank 10 for San d'Oria. Coincidentally, everyone in the Linkshell is San d'Orian. JPM is silly.
Wait until everyone is on the "Emptiness Bleeds" chapter for Chains of Promathia before starting it. We've all agreed to face the final boss at the same time.
And probably do the other Missions, though so far only the Ranks and CoP are our current goals.

My personal goals are just levelling up either my PLD or BRD. Might work on my WHM, too. Limit Break quests included.

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

I used to duo Up in Arms with another SMN using the Carbuncle Meteor trick. It was never a question of if it could be won... it was ALWAYS a question of if we could do it before the time ran out. I've been on more than 1 run in UIA where we won by only seconds... and in one case it was only because we ran into melee beside carby for the last 10 seconds.

[Romyro]

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

I’ve contemplated doing Up In Arms again…but how many people can say they’ve seen 2 drops there.

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

New goal... find a new group (of friends like Cid and Hayde) to run these again a few times and pool the rewards and split the profit. If we had done that with this group each of us would have walked away with 8,000,000 gil to split 3 ways for a gain of 2,600,000+ gil each.

You guys want to do that tonight?

I have more seals than I know what to do with. Count me in.

[Romyro]

Re: Post your FFXI goals of the week!

Good gwad Smile ><

That’s too bad…seeing as he probably needed you two to win…
A ~2.6m split would have been nice for everyone.

Are these LS friends? We generally have a rule of thumb when we go. YOYD for all crappy npc-ing type items and full splits on expensive items. Unless the sponsor is going to use the spell.

**and thats also as long as everyone brings an orb**
