Bustin' out Dragoon.

Vepion asked me to help him out with a Magian trial for his dagger, which involved killing some 600 dragons. I couldn't turn down the offer to bust out my DRG, especially after having upgraded a number of pieces over the last month or two.

So Janko, Xyclo, Hesper, Vepion and myself headed out to Wajaom Woodlands to kill some puks. Though the mobs weren't anywhere near the difficulty level of an IT, it was still fun seeing them be almost one shotted. I think we killed around 150 puks, maybe even more.

Conclusion? I miss my DRG.

And going back to my previous post... I gave up camping Adamantoise. The next window was likely going to pop the HQ Aspid, and unfortunately the window would be way too early to recruit any help.

I did however cement my decision to try the turtle KS99. I've been able to recruit a number of people, and even had an offer of 3 orbs to be donated. I'm hoping that at least one egg drops, and hopefully we'll see a second with the orbs Athoz has available so that he can also get his BB item. But more importantly, I just hope that we can succeed and get a win. If we don't get the drop, we can always farm more kindred seals as long as we know that we have a good setup for the fight. So hopefully in another week when we do our run, Xean will finally have his BB.

And speaking of Xean... I managed to get all 9 Cards of Ardor to upgrade his MNK AF3 Body to the +2 version. Sadly though, I still need another 8 Body Seals to get his +1 version, lol. But I think i'll invest some time trying that one quest out in Abyssea-Uleguerand that randomly gives body seals when you complete it, occasionally. So far i've gotten 2 MNK body seals, but the quest is a pain because it takes about 10-12 minutes to do.

Other than that, I had a successful Chloris farming run the other day. Carste, Onedarkflame, Vepion, and Athoz came out to help for an excruciating day filled with Tahrongi NM farming, in order to pop a total of 9 Chloris which resulted in an extra 19 two-leaf Chloris buds for my Polearm trial. I'm now 29/50, and should be able to wrap up the trial in another 2 or 3 runs. The NM isn't hard at all, but he does have an annoying move that puts doom on everyone. Its always fun trying to see if we can cursna everyone before they die.

Also helped out Janko with Turul. We took a very long time trying to find him, and took just about as long to kill him. Onedarkflame came out to help on his WHM, and brought out Buckeyespud on THF. I had Zerayla on WHM, and Xean on THF as well. We ended up getting the body piece Janko was after for his MNK. I also got to walk away with the Searing Cape which is a nice nuking piece for BLM. One thing to note about this Turul though... Shock Spikes.
