Einherjar 11.26.08

So 3/3 for Tier 2, make sure you keep telling Linkx about it too!


… off to Tier3s!

Salvage recent news

A while back, Zhefer got Deimos’s Cuirass and the other pieces seemed to just naturally dropped for him, giving him a …

… well at least when he gets 12 of those ingots lol… get to farming Zhef so we can post a screeny with you on it!!

Also, more recently, gratz to Mohit on his new hands…

Einherjar 11.19.08

… but this particular frog seemed to have forgotten his stupid feather and didn’t drop one! Stupid frog NMs and their drop rate!

Limbus 11.20.08

Went back to Proto-Ultima hoping to strip off his pants so Zue can do the dirty with him but…. he must have seen through Zue and Ultima didn’t get turned on … damn you Zue!


Congratulations to Hoodwaxer on …


Congratulations to Syano on …


and Congratulations to Snibe for his free …

The Wyrmking Descends aka. Bv2

So Bahamut must have feel insulted that it only took us 25-30sec to kill him and made him wait for 18minutes to ease his fright. So, he dropped … something meh …


Still, congratulations to Talonshard on NQ staff …


and Congratulations to Q on his scythe …

ZNM efforts continue as we form more pop sets for tier 4.    We’ve learned how to be successful at a lot of these fights with low attendance, so it’s proving to be a great exercise in teamwork.

It’s nice to see SE created legitimately new mobs for once instead of just pallette swaps.

Whoops, spoke too soon.

We’ve also been plodding away in Einherjar. We had craptastic luck with the mobs in tier 2. Seemed to be 50% slimes, 50% bones for awhile. It actually got to the point that we started farming up gear for our monks to wear during Einherjar, but of course nothing we needed would drop.

It seems the bosses in Einherjar got word of our efforts since they kept trying to run away.

Despite the rotten luck, we have finally earned enough ichor for our first round of items.

Dynamis continues at well, sometimes with sexy treasure pools.

But we also had a dynamis qufim which dropped 0 accessories and only one -1 piece. The usual hit or miss drop rates seem to be strengthened by a double or nothing gamble lately. We had two consecutive 100 coins in sandoria.

And we found a new drop, someone go update wiki.

Despite interesting drops, dynamis continues to be as boring as ever. Two drink minimum often becoms five or six, and we try to avoid the monotony by hiding from Shado.

We are currently finding our fun in the new fights added to the past. We farmed up the 8 NMs in beadeaux and twice took down a shiny shelled snapper, resulting in a sexy ranger hat for Lokithor.

The weird double or nothing drop effect hit sky as well, and we got three siren’s hair off the same suzie.

And once again, we had a zombie fest at ultima

which resulted in buy-one-get-one nashira pants.

We’ve changed our schedule around a bit and now Syano and Glinda are leading sea hunts every other monday. Our last Jailer of Love was far faster than any before – SE must have reduced the HP to accommodate their “2 hour or less” NM fight requirement. Love gave full drops:

Congrats to Hoodwaxer for a novio, Linkx for a novia, and Chaossamurai for the love torque. Absolute Virtue is now 100% pop and brought a side of fava beans to the party, which he enjoyed while eating our faces.

Wyrms were particularly stingy bastards this month. Fafnir gave crap:

As did ouryu:

though our time is improving.

We did umpteen KS99 wyrms as well without much to show. Hey SE developers reading this site: make playtime worth the investment, mmk? I don’t remember how many runs we did but it spanned far too many weeks and we only had 1-2 wyrm beards to show for it.

So life goes on. SE has been doing their best to plan maintenances to keep HNMs fully in JP time, so we’ve been filling our time by popping whatever we can and keeping LS chat intelligence to a minimum.

Sarameya (Tier 4 ZNM) – 11.15.08

Killed #1-#3 Sarameya tonight and went pretty smooth compared to his Hydra and Khimaira counterparts!

#1 and #2 were meh drops, but third try was a charm and gave us the the grand price …

Congratulations to Brick on his brand new pants

Consolation prices to:

Congratulations to Mushi, Llenomor, Japolo on …

and Congratulation to Quaide on …

and everyone else on …
