As it mentioned in previous post, my best friend Tavera started drama during our gem farm, and the result is me losing my best friend. I got an lv 80 empy, but I lost my best friend, literally I've lost more than what I've gained.
Ever since Abyssea came out we've duoed a shit tones of stuff, and most of the time I'm the one getting all the benefit. I ended up getting spoiled and rely on him for getting gears way too much, and unable to cherish the value of friends. I'm unable to get things done on my own. So I decided to learn a hard lesson and going to earn my own gear instead of relying on friends for help. This empy will probably stay @ lv 80 for a while, until I'm worthy and earn the lv 85 version myself. Gimp as you can see, but I guess it's my punishment. Same for AF3+2s, all the incomplete AF3+2 I'll just let it stay as it is for now, until I earn them myself.
Pretty funny that just the day before yesterday I still view gears like Empyrean weapon or AF3+2 an accomplishment, ppl standing in Jeuno with 5/5 blue boxes and lv 85 empy used to be so cool, now for me all the gears are nothing more than a punishment.
I just started a new AF3+2 farming static, hopefully it goes well, so I can keep working on AF3+2 without relying on friends. I used to tried to make an empy static too but it doesn't work too well, and I immediately turned to my friends after the static failed. I hope history won't repeat this time.
I'm temped to stop playing COR again so I don't take advantage it, by running around in gears I don't deserve. But if I don't get to play it I think I'll be very unhappy, so I may still play with it once a while.
Currently goal:
Make sure AF3+2 static goes well and complete everyone's WL item.
Project Armageddon on hold(temp).
Also updated Project Armageddon status, no lantern for me until I earn them!
Other static I'm currently running is Nyzul static for tokens, although whether Nyzul static goes well or not largely depends on other ppls attendance :/
Anyways, now it's time for a new start in FFXI.

Stage 1 pew pew Laser gun
After I realized I won't get a free Empyrean from rank 1(stop dreaming!), I pushed a little bit more, by bugging everyone I know to a point that they should have /blist me already XD. And the result....
Special thanks to Tavera, Stealthkiller, Agerknux...those 3 ppl probably getting bugged by me the most. Tav even started drama many times because of it. (We both drama whore)
Other ppl who helped including a bunch of peeps in MLIA(Ager's LS) and CaelusII LS(Tav's LS), some ppl in Cynosure(The social LS I'm in), and some ppl on my friendlist that's randomly dragged by me such as Dragonxdvz, Chymerial, Bennettz, Baliise, Kingilya(plus some Kingilya's friend I don't remember name) and such...hmmm I may miss someone but forgive me, I dragged way too many ppl in the process of killing Carabosse for like 40+ times.
I have this trial flagged for sooooo long, like 7~8 months at least. I started high DMG path gun as soon as it's out, then stucked on Trial 1759 for months since I have no abyssea group and such. It's also very hard to find help because Carabosse drop sucked, and it takes a while to kill one due to annoying 2hr and high defense after 2hr. Notorious mute/stun/dispel and one shot kill AeroV also makes killing this NM a pain. It's not a omgwtf hard to kill NM, just annoying. I know there is red/blue WS proc 2hr lock zerging, but it hardly works well. At least I can solo a huge part of KI NM farming for Cara.
I hope stage 2 is easier. So far the hardest part is probably camping Heqet, if there's competition. But both KI NM drops seals and CC drops better gear and +2 items, hopefully it's easier to find ppl interested in helping at least. CC itself is easier to kill than Carabosse as well, a couple of BLM nuke/bind can take it down really fast.
After I got the laser gun the first thing is of course take a screen shot, then I went to abyssea and help BK farmed his helms for his Kannagi while playing with the lasergun. Kinda lame that most of my dmg output still came from cheap Yataghan and Evisceration spam XD. After I unlock the WS I may or may not have to redo all the current melee TP set/atma, right now it's Yataghan/joytoy(aiming to replace joy with a Mageblade or Twilight knife if possible) combo plus RR/VV and focus on melee DoT/Evi. After wildfire unlock maybe it's 3 MAB/fire atma plus Mkris and move all the dmg to WS/fire shot(haven't done math about this yet)? Ranged attack it's kinda screwed in abyssea, I tried with everything I could, enhanced courser's roll with 5 piece of snapshot gears and macro, pot+ chaos roll, the dmg of ranged attack just won't catch up to melee jobs or even myself in melee mode in abyssea. And it's certainly not my fault, Kingilya's well geared RNG also has weak dmg compare with other melee jobs. BK's RNG is not much better either.
Tav often asked me why bother to make an empy weapon for a job that's not even useful and in fact, a job that's gimp in dmg even with an empy weapon. He is supposed to be DRK main but never bother to make an empy weapon for DRK just because of the fact that he is always on WHM and DRK dmg gimp. In his mind I'm stuck on BLU no matter what because of yellow proc, and I should make an Almace instead.
While I was doing some helms farming for Ager's Almace some empy MNK came with his WHM parner, duoed Briareus with god damn awesome speed. 300 dmg crit-hit per melee round with capped haste and 3.1k Victory Smite every few sec is just epic. Everytime when I see a well geared MNK tank/DD a NM, it's always epic. Then another group came, with more DDs in the pt including an empy NIN, but killed much slower. With much lower crit-hit dmg and much lower Blade:Hi. That's how I realized even with empy weapon not all jobs are equally epic. I know my BLU or COR probably won't achieve that kind of epicness in NM fight even if I somehow complete a lv 85 empy weapon for both jobs, due to how those jobs dealing dmg. BLU with an empy weapon probably need to pretend to be a pure melee DD and stop wasting time to cast physical spells for max melee/WS dmg. And I doubt a pure melee BLU can beat a real pure melee job like MNK WAR or NIN. COR with an empy only gets full advantage from ODD by shooting, and shooting sucked in abyssea.
I asked the same question myself too, why bother to spend time on making an Armageddon and Death Penalty, when I can have greater achievement if I save the time and money to lv a stronger/more useful DD job such as WAR and MNK and make a stronger DD weapon such as Ukonvasara or Verethragna etc.
And yet I still keep going.
Ever since I start lving COR, I told everyone that it will be my main job. It's the least played job in this game and not all that useful, so I'll just try to create new value of this job, by trying the most effective way to play it in terms of buffing and dmg dealing. I often found myself know very little about this job and have a lot of questions, and unable to find right answer because most ppl don't play this job. So I ended up trying to discover new ways of playing this job and make use of it's abilities in every aspect, such as change of gears, change of play style, change of subjob and different way to buff etc. I enjoy this discovering process, slowly learning how to play a job better for different situation, and trying new stuff all the time. This kind of freedom is something I can't get from other more popular jobs, when their role is fixed and every way to play the job is being discovered. That's why my profile has the line "Currently trying to become a true pirate", I'm far from understanding/playing this job fully and I guess I'll keep going until I quit FFXI. Lv 85 Armageddon next!

Behind all the epic gears
Takagi, one DRG in Tav's LS seems to admire one relic DRG on our server a lot, who has a lot of good gears such as relic polearm, AF3+2 5/5, Ares 5/5 etc. When I asked him why he pay so much attention he just replied he likes to see ppl in epic gears, what he didn't know is how those ppl got their epic gears.
Basically, if you see one leader of the LS has way better gear than other LS member, then 95% of the chance is because he lotted everything first, other LS member only get left overs. The DRG Tak admired a lot runs an EGLS, and in that LS leaders decide who lot which item when stuff drops, of course all the epic and rare stuff goes to leader and his friends, and regular members gets weaker drops. I have friends in that LS, and he often complains a lot about it, and that's how drama usually occurs, because there're no fair rules/clear point system, and LS leaders gets all the benefit.
Tav seems to believe making friend with LS leader is the quickest and easiest way to get epic gears, maybe he is right, he was a sack of one EGLS and friend of the LS leader. But somehow I didn't buy it, especially after his EGLS broke because of the drama itself. I can easily name many EGLS on this server without a fair and clear point system and lots of favoritism involved. Sadly most of them are NA/EU LS, lol. Now I kinda miss Escaflowne, and how they do events.
Of course, not all epicly geared players are greedy leaders, some really worked hard and deserved it. Some just has a more efficient group to do stuff with. But most of the EGLS I know either has a bad reputation because of favoritism, or broke because of favoritism.
Distributing gears is an art, if someone didn't get what they deserve after all the work, drama bound to occur. Greedy LS leaders won't have a good name, gears may be epic, but in the end players that's not greedy deserve more respect than those epicly geared greedy leaders. And that kind of LS won't have any good reputation. So now I learned to ignore all the afk players in jeuno/WG showing off their epic gears, who knows what's the story behind those gears. Ninja or greedy, who knows.

Sucked outside
Last Sat I did my first "Early Bird Catches the Wyrm" KS99 with MLIA for Sionnach's BB item on COR/RNG. Despite we're lv 90 doing this lv 75 event, we still wiped for the first 2 runs. It's pretty funny to see 10 well geared lv 90 players who pretty much beat every NM in abyssea still can't handle a lv 75 era BC. And I blame the atma power for spoiling us ._.
We're too used to unlimited MP in and DD tank in abyssea, and WHMs ended up running out of MP. I should take large responsibility as well, since I only gave Magus roll and DD roll for first two runs, and completely ignored Evokers. I haven't use Evokers roll and roll rotations for ages and pretty much stick with only 2 DD rolls in abyssea, and now my COR gets rusty and not all that used to timing/positioning for roll rotations.
Anyways, our run got better when Ager switched to PLD tank, COR and BRD started using Evokers/Ballad. And cg on Sionnach's new BB.
I have to say KS99 is a fairly nice experience, I finally feel my COR is relevant again in events. Buffs really make a difference, and ranged attack pew pew mode can handle the Wyrm in air mode, although I think some physical blue magic from my BLU can also hit flying enemies. I found my COR /ra actually hits pretty hard with new Triple shot and AF3+1 body to enhance Triple shot JA. Snapshot gears(4 enhance snapshot piece plus 1 snapshot+3 body piece) I collected in Abyssea also helped a lot. It should be even stronger once I finish /SAM and get a Loki for 5 hit.......um.....if getting a Loki is even possible .___.
Also, in abyssea I've been playing with COR/DNC spamming Evisceration recently. I have to say I'm falling in love with COR/DNC XD Evisceration is a very cheap and effective WS in abyssea with RR/VV, and extra 5% haste from haste samba makes a significant difference for overall pt dmg output. Curing/healing waltz is just icing on the cake. The only weakness of /DNC is melee TP feed and no shadows for protection, and this sub tend to pull hate a lot. I'd say as long as COR is fighting any melee-able mobs-NM or EXP mob that you can melee and won't die, /DNC is the best sub for overall dmg output. As long as my pt has other DDs, my pt seems to kill NMs faster if I come COR/DNC instead of BLU. Although BLU still kills EXP mob faster.
Also, since I mentioned COR pew pew mode, I have to complain a bit about COR bullets. I often accidentally shoot my Oberon bullets if I /ra, and due to low supply of Oberon this bullet is supposed to be QD only bullet. It usually won't matter if I can just resupply them. But they're literally never up on AH. Now my supply of Oberon is getting low, and have to use Steel bullets for QD as well if I /ra or else I may shoot all my Oberon and get no bullets to QD. And after a couple round of KS99 I found my steel bullet is also running low, and I can't find any on AH. This is just BS. Highest base dmg bullet COR can use is already 28 base dmg behind RNG's, and they're almost never on AH. The second highest base dmg bullet is also rarely on AH and it's like 35 base dmg lower than RNGs. Now now what should I use next to pew pew? Lv 61 Corsair's bullets? :( Why won't SE release some better and easier to obtain/synth ammo for COR if they just keep adding stats for /ra on AF3? SE wants COR go /ra, but no supply on ammo and base dmg just suck balls. /rage /rage /rage
Bahhh time to find some crafters to synth me some useable bullets :(

The death of Rolanmart
1 year ago when I just created my character, I traveled long way from Basty to Jeuno with another friend after I ding 20ish and needed a pt in Qufim. It was a long and dangerous journey, playing MGS with mobs alone the say, we had no sneak/invis w/e.
After I finally arrived at outside of Jeuno, all I saw was a bunch of ppl standing there afking. My friend explained to me that they bazaar stuff outside of Jeuno to avoid tax, this is how I first met Rolanmart, one tradition of FFXI.
Then browsing goods in Rolanmart became one of my entertainment in FFXI. It's a nice place to go when I log on and have nothing to do, but feel too tired to grind anything. They often sell some cool and rare stuff, and it's also fun to compare prices for different items. It's also a nice place to show off gears. We often see ppl wearing their pimpest gear set while afking and selling stuff. Of course ppl usually afk and show off their gears in WG at that time(now they show off their blue boxes 5/5 in Jeuno), but showing off in WG won't give any profit, while Rolanmart gives profit and a place to show off gears, very nice!
I visit Rolanmart even more often when I started my Project Death Penalty, just to see if there's any cheap alex for sell. And that's when Abyssea came out and Rolanmart started dying.
There used to be like 20 ppl selling stuff, including leaders of every EGLS. But the number decreased everyday, eventually reached zero. I stood outside of Jeuno, looking at empty Rolanmart, with no one showing off their gear, no one selling alex/ABC/currency/speed belt/hachiryu/Dusk+1 set and such. And now I admit I kinda miss the dead Rolanmart.
I don't know why ppl don't sell stuff at Rolanmart anymore. I guess ppl do more abyssea now and most of the items are ex/rare so nothing to sell really. But I guess that's just how this game changes, much like real life, old things disappear and now we miss it when it is really gone.

Shinryu, my turn + new year new goal (!?)
I /shout in Jeuno and made a pt, finally got my Raja (last title needed for Shinryu access) clear.
I got my clear with Tav brewing, only lol cape dropped. Well at least I got my 200k cruor access, incoming shinryu spam!
I only had 500k cruor when I got my access, so that means 2 brew.
I spent my first brew on date(?) with Tavera, since I already promised. That means this brew is basically a waste since no one else gonna be in the pt and proc blue.
Then I killed Shinryu on BLU spamming Sanguine blade. Ager told me his Sanguine can do 12k, mine only did 10k. I guess I'm gimp then! XD But still good enough to kill it. I probably need /RDM and get more MAB atma next time for Sanguine blade spam.
Next brew we got blue proc, I wanted to test wildfire-less COR brewing for a bit. Appearantly Leaden Salute is not as good as Sanguine for this fight. Dmg is only 6k~10k even with /RDM, dark staff and lucky number wizard's roll. Even worse, somehow it healed 20k+ if I WS at wrong time. I wasted one brew just because I healed it at least 60k HP after some failed WS.
Anyways.
Since now it's 2011, I guess I'll set up some new goal for this year as well. First goal will be play less FFXI and focus on RL more XD
I dropped almost all the events I have, only keeping Einherjar and maybe limbus sometimes. I told Ager that I will only attend Abyssea events with MLIA part time from now on. I dropped my Exodus pearl and planning to leave my Dynamis LS as well, not like I ever have time to do Dyna. I may quit my current Salvage static as well, since doing Salvage everyday just a bit too much. Ever since I started FFXI, I missed a lot of opportunity to explore my surroundings because of events everyday. Now it's time to do some other stuff I won't have time to do if I play FFXI like a second job.
So what I'm going to do? Time to find out!

Dmg is only 6k~10k even with /RDM, dark staff and lucky number wizard's roll. Even worse, somehow it healed 20k+ if I WS at wrong time. I wasted one brew just because I healed it at least 60k HP after some failed WS.
Anyways.
Since now it's 2011, I guess I'll set up some new goal for this year as well. First goal will be play less FFXI and focus on RL more XD
I dropped almost all the events I have, only keeping Einherjar and maybe limbus sometimes. I told Ager that I will only attend Abyssea events with MLIA part time from now on. I dropped my Exodus pearl and planning to leave my Dynamis LS as well, not like I ever have time to do Dyna. I may quit my current Salvage static as well, since doing Salvage everyday just a bit too much. Ever since I started FFXI, I missed a lot of opportunity to explore my surroundings because of events everyday. Now it's time to do some other stuff I won't have time to do if I play FFXI like a second job.
So what I'm going to do? Time to find out!
