Subligars...

Not a lot has happened last week, other than meriting on my RDM (I now have 4 merits for my Shield skill, and 2 for my sword skill) and getting lvl 52 on my WHM with Xean's NIN. I did try fishing a little bit in Qufim, hoping to get my fishing lvled so that I can eventually fish on the ship to Mhaura while waiting for the NMs to pop that drop the WHM cudgels that give some really good stats.


Funny part about that, is that I spent two days fishing in Qufim before I figured out that apparently the fishing guild also has a "guild test item".






. . .





Yeah, I felt pretty smart lol. As soon as I figured out that had been the reason I hadn't seen one skillup in 2 days, I finally went and traded in the item so I could go beyond fishing lvl 10. I managed to get one lvl which isn't much, but then again the craft itself is much slower to progress with than other crafts (in regards to gaining skillups)





So over the weekend, I did my usual ENM static with Pseulen, Arimis, Timwakefield, Xean and we invited a friend of Pseulen's, Kyng. We breezed through these, and I even managed to ding lvl 38 on my Ninja. I'm pretty sure that i'll be able to bring my NIN to this static from now on, which means that I can lvl the job without really having to xp on it!!! My goal is to get lvl 58, because there is this one katana that allows you to have cooking skill +3 when equipped, so hopefully in a couple of months i'll make it there considering i'm getting a total of 9k experience points a week on my ninja now.





And the other even which pretty much consumed my weekend, was a subligar run I organized with my LS. We headed down to the Aqueducts, and started killing various formors. We had a few deaths here and there, ran into the Minotaur (stupid mortal ray killed me because I didn't have enough Holy Waters -_-) and killed him. We even took on 4 formors with only 8 players, 2 of which were tanks. Our strategy was to kite a few of them while some of us fought. We even ended up having one of our kiters/tanks die early on because of an NM that linked, but thankfully with everyone pulling together to use their 2hrs we killed the party of 4 formors, and even got the 2 subligars needed from that group (Grats Angeloxi!).





In the end we didn't get our RNG subligar for Shaoulin, but everyone else had their request filled. Many of us, left with more subligars than we actually intended to have. I have 2 different BRD types, a RDM, PLD, NIN, WHM/SMN and I think another type as well. All in all, it was a success and though it dragged on for a very long time (Saturday night our party stayed up until 1am PST/4am EST) I think everyone was pretty happy with the results. Hopefully we'll be able to set up another party soon so that we can get Shaou his subligar, and anyone else who didn't get the chance to come along. It was a lot of fun, and i'm really glad to see some of our newer members to the LS show enthusiasm to come and help with events. I'm grateful that though we've had a few members leave due to differences, we've gained more members that show a lot of potential to furthering our LS, and making it one of those places people just like to come to and enjoy.
