FFXI: Yay!
Yay! Gessho: Beaten! A group of LS folks took on ToAU mission #35 (Gessho, yag fight) and we won! It surprised me, since we had an odd party makeup (and one person didn't bring any hi-pots and didn't say anything about that until our final attempt c.c ). WHM, WHM, COR, RDM, MNK, THF. The THF tanked it amazingly well. The fight was going all smoothly, we got him down to around 20% and the screen went black. I went 'Nooooo!' out loud thinking we had ran out of time, heh. Somehow I missed the part about him giving up before dying!
OMG, so much amazing love for the ToAU storyline! I've said it before and I'll say it again: No expansion ever has, or ever will, top ToAU in my heart. It's just too bad there's a Japanese midnight wait before we can watch the rest of the post-fight CSs!
Whenever I upload screenshots, I always like to look at what happened on this day in years past. Two years ago to this very day:
Heh. COR is still my favorite job, by a longshot (no pun intended!). While waiting for folks to gather, I checked out the goblin footprint and watched scenes from the COR job opening quest. Sometimes your current-day armor makes watching past-CSs silly. c.c And then he handed me the die... To prove that I was a corsair... because the AF I'm wearing wouldn't do that? :P Silly Qultata. *pats him*
Odin is so very cool. All text blurred, no spoilers.
In totally unrelated news, earlier this week:
I picked up my Gun of Trials, but I haven't had time to clear it yet. Also, I didn't get my weekly WHM level, and probably won't level it more until we're done with ToAU missions. It's almost insulting: I've done enough campaigns to have 983,120 AN, and I stopped doing campaigns for one week and they want to take my metal away. Screw you past-people. Just screw you.
Lastly, I really, really hope no one GM calls me for Fishingbot's bazaar comment, heehee.
