Angry Taru

I guess it’s been a while since I made an entry. On the other hand, I haven’t been doing that much.

Keceltes went off to Taiwan for a bit. It’s a bit similar to when Chipya went to Japan for six months, except that we cared about Chipya. We threw a little going away party FFXI style. Keceltes more or less just told the LS that this was going to be his last gaming session for a while and left. So there was no time for the Goblin fireworks. That doesn’t really bother me though. I knew that he was leaving in advance. It’s one of the perks of being one of his real life friend. No, the thing that bothers me the most is that I didn’t really do anything for his last day. Sure I went to his party and had a couple of sake bombs, but I didn’t do anything in-game for him. Oh well. Yet another regret to add to a list of regrets for a person who tries to live his life without them.

The aftermath of Keceltes’ leaving resulted in the breakup of the level 50-ish static party. Then I got bored of the game again and left for a bit. I came back to finish the ToaU missions though. Unfortunately, it wasn’t quite as hard and thus not as satisfying as CoP. I still got a neato earring.

I still sign on every other Wednesday though. Most of the LS are involved in other LSes with their dynamis runs, sky, and stuff. I guess Enginerds wasn’t one of those large item gathering LSes. More like a gathering of a small group of sarcastic friends. I’m quite happy with that.

Chipya is trying to get me more involved with assault nights, Mondays. Something about Nyzul runs. It sounds nice and I don’t want to let him down, but I’m not entirely sure I want to do them. I think I would rather do regular assault runs, but then again I’m enjoying having the time to play other games. I’m almost done with FFIV for the DS.

Maybe one day someone will read this blog and find out my true feelings, but who really cares. I’m sure things will change if Keceltes decides to return to FFXI.

This post was typed entirely on my new iPhone. The typing speed isn’t that bad. I’ve hoped you’ve enjoyed this little insight into the Taru mind.

Damn… here we go again. So far we’re 0/6. Let’s try to make this one 0/7. \(>.<)/

OMG… we actually won this time. =0 We killed off Eald’narche fairly easily. Good Stunning people! I think it was a bit better since Reki was Stunning more instead of nuking since Eald was more magic resistant. Caso (aka Thed aka the good player) kited well. Reki died first, then Chip, then me. We all RRed and kept on fighting. Kec died then Kat a little bit later.

When we were fighting Kam’lanaut, Kec’s RR got dispelled. I guess that will suck-ga for him. I informed him, but I don’t think he had enough time to get it back up before he died. Oh well.

Nice. Now I get a Magnetic Earring. Woot. I guess I could have gotten a Static Earring instead, but that’ll only be useful when I’m MBing and that means I’ll have to pay attention more often while playing. I think it’s better for me to have Conserve MP and the HMP though, since it’ll be more useful for all my LV 72+ mage jobs.

Great job guys!

Three more attempts and three more losses for this group. The first time I wanted to save Chainspell for as long as possible. Apparently it was too long though. I thought I had enough time to use Chainspell then cast Stun before the little brat got his first -ga spell off. Waterga III hit s and it was pretty much over at that point. Especially since Chipya died again while kiting Kam’lanaut.

The second time Caso kited instead and we did really well. We killed the little brother quickly and we were on the big guy. We wiped, RR, and rested till full. If we had managed to Dia/Bio/Poison him before we wiped it would have been much easier. Instead Kam also healed up to full. Keceltes was too close to the mob to RR. We attempted to finish it off and were rewarded with death instead. Well, we pretty much have this fight down now.

The third fight was so sad that I didn’t even write anything down. We just died. That’s it. Oh we also noticed that Eald’narche seems to have a high magical resistance. Well, maybe that information will be useful for next time.

The WHM AF3 fight was an easy fight, though the NM resisted my Silence very well. We just fought a Shade NM and had to do it once for each WHM. Kathane didn’t have the quest active or something so she had to go back and change to WHM to get it again. I didn’t mind the wait though. I got to play more Wii Bowling. ^^
