refilling the midnight oil

sooooo much to do...

I will say this before I post continue.... if you point out an NM to me... I am probably going to pull it there for its NOT MY FAULT!

Having said that I can continue. Fin, Xan and I have been running around the last couple of days trying to find the engery to lv to 73, but we always seemed to be pressed for time or get wrapped up in something else. We are almost done hunting eyes for the optical hat. This has been a major undertasking. I caved in and bought a couple of the eyes for us to save time and Exp.

... Fuck those Million Eye's

I am getting excited about things. We are setting a goal to have our optical hats done by Friday/Dynamis. We will see how that goes. Xan/Fin wont be on at the same time this weekend so that kinda sucks, but we will manage to get a few things knocked out. It might be a good weekend to do a little Thief Knife hunting -HINT HINT- but if not there are tons of other things that I need to get out of the way. I have a feeling Fin and Xan will be busy trying to fall over each other again and again. I really wouldnt mind taking the time to get Rank10 this weekend after dynamis.

Ok now about this NM thing. Xan wanted to do some Mining after Fin had to call it a night. She decided to go to Ifrit Couldron. I tagged along hoping to farm a few eyes for some extra money and help her get the coffer for the map. I also kind of like the way the place looks... its different. Well were only there for a minute before Xan points out that an NM was present. I would have not even noticed if she wouldnt have said anything! Well after looking it up, just letting it go was not an option. It droped the V. Claw needed to make a scorpion harness *drool*... Well this is what happened that night in summary.

1.) I get a tell "See I made it out safe". Less than 2 mins after zoning in to ifrits couldron Xan has to escape.
2.) Xan: Hey an NM... your Lucky!
3.) Spiyre: Lets duo it
Xan: are you confident in your tanking abilities
Spiyre: I didnt cap evasion to be unconfident.
3.1) Xan: I am calling Fin to see if he is still awake...
4.) Xan: SAM come help us.
5.) SAM: "I dont have a map!, Help me get a map and I will help you!"
6.) Xan: Chot come help us
Chot: I wanna be war, but I will come as Pal cause Nin friend doesnt wanna come.
7.) SAM: I tanked this NM with a mnk friend
Spiyre: We got this
Xan: I am in mining gear.
8.) SCORE: NM 1 US 0
9.) SAM: My Drg friend is here.
10.) Drg: This is cool
Xan: NM's get me going
Spiyre: I can kill this bitch solo
SAM: We were close... lot tougher than I remember
Chot: I wanna be war, but I will stay as Pal cause Nin friend doesnt wanna come.
11.) SCORE NM 2 US 0
Spiyre: well that sucked
Xan: Fin is going to kill us
SAM: Maybe the Pal should Tank
Drg: I gotta go
Chot: I wanna be war, but I will stay as Pal cause Nin friend doesnt wanna come.
12.) Aiden logs on
13.) Xan: AIDEN HELP!
Spiyre: AIDEN HELP!
14.) Chot and Xan go to get gear and change Chots job to war. Aiden is all over the world doing what ever and I go afk...
15.) SCOR NM 2 US 0 Bomb 1
16.) Spiyre: WTF Happened! I step away and I am dead.
Drg: Lol... it exploded
Sam: Lol
Spiyre: ...
Xan: Fin is going to kill us
Chot: I AM WARRIOR! HERE ME ROAR!
Aiden: Just a moment.
17.) Drg leaves
18.) Spiyre: Ready
Xandora: Ready
Aiden: Ready as Aiden can be
Chot: I AM WARRIOR! HERE ME ROAR!
SAM: I just came here for a map.
Xan: I am never Mining with Spiyre again.
Spiyre: DONT BLAME ME!
19.) SCORE NM 2 US 1 Bomb 1
20.) Yay we killed it... who wants the crappy hammer cause the V. Claw didnt drop.
21.) Chot: I got Hammer. I am Warrior!
Xan: Night
SAM: MAP!
22.) Sam opens coffer. Gets map. End of the night.

Death Talley Total
Xandora: 5 Deaths
SAM: 6 or 7 Deaths
DRG: 1 Death
Spiyre: 4 Deaths
Aiden: 2 Deaths
Chot: 3 or 4 Deaths

So... if you see an NM and dont wanna fight it, dont tell me its an NM. I wouldnt notice anyways.
