Yesterday was uber nice. When I logged on, the leader of my linkshell tells me that we're doing 5-1 for me and another member. I'm thinking 'woo hoo', but at the same time, slightly dissapointed because I really wanted to level my whm. Oh well, so we get all situated to head to Fei'Yin. The run only took an hour tops, from starting in Jueno, through the teles, the walking through the glacier and past all the dumb skeletons.

Killing that skeleton was easy as pie. Now, when I attempted 5-1 a few months ago with random people, it did not go so well. I was dealing with noobs and they had no idea what they were doing, not to mention the whm didn't know how to benediction (I was on my pld at the time) so it ended horribly and I went home without 5-1. But last night was different. Everything went smoothly and noone died and we got 5-1. Yay us!

Afterwards, Vaulout (my fiance) and I wanted to level. Ugh! Ok, first of all, i HATE hate hate those bastards that have their flags up, and when you ask them to party, they say "no JP onry". Well fuck you too. So we were left with .... the ones that weren't invited to party. I got invited by a drk that shouldn;t have been leader. She kept asking us who to invite, what to do, how to do it, etc etc etc........And the thf I partied with a few nights ago was bugging me to party (he SUCKED) but I felt bad so I said to invite him. We only get 5 people in the party; no refresher, so I bring loads of cookies. We decided to go to GC and chain on bats, because they go down fast. Things were going ok......for a short while.. but everything started to suck. XP was getting slower and slower, the blm keps casting AM spells (god knows why) and stealing hate like it was his job to tank (my fiance is nin/war - and is a damn good one at that), and the thf could not SATA to save his life. It was pissing my fiance off, as well as myself because he keps SATAing when Usetsumi (spelling? o.O) wasn't up, so Vaulout would be getting ass raped.. so I would [Flash] to blind the lil buggers and he could get a damn ninja spell up, and then they little shitheads come over and try to make lunch outa me. And that's how it was the whole night. And we tried to explain to him how to do SATA.. and he didnt wanna hear it. Using excuses that he was tired and whatnot. We almost died at one point, bc he grabbed a link, but we were fine (after explaing 5 times to the blm that you can't sleep II bats (or sleep I for that matter) and I used benediction towards the end of the 1st fight. Barely got hate and I stayed alive, along with the rest of the party.

Ugh... we had agreed to leave in 30 minutes (after everyone was saying they were tired) and my fiance died at 126 tnl. yeah.... he was pissed. Because the thf SATA'd on him... and he wasnt ready for it. Ugh....


I hate noobs sometimes. I mean, at least take some criticism constructively. Now, I consider myself a pretty helpful person. I try to explain things to people so they understand what's going on. But when you start saying to my fiance "is she always like this?" and "Good luck to you man"... well that just pissed me off, because A) I was being nice; and B) I was trying to explain things clearly. Oh well, /blist added him and that's that.

First of many...

So I decided to get yet another blog thingie...(like I really need another thing to preoccupy myself at work....) Anywho, I figured this would be a blog for my Final Fantasy XI ramblings. Most of time when I post in my other normal blog, people have no clue what I'm talking about.

So this will be the place where I vent, rant and tell the occurrences of my Bismarck server life.

My character is Bellemithra... I am a mithra (duh), been playing for almost a year. My fiancee got my hooked....I belong to the linkshell ShadowAssassins. Maybe you've heard of them? Maybe not? I don't care. They are an awesome group of people and I consider them my friends.
I can be pretty opinionated and obnoxious at times, so consider this a warning. Especially after I've just finished a session of gaming (a session = 3-4 hours and lots of beer)

My main job used to be Paladin, it's at 52. After a few frustrating leveling sessions, I decided to try the magery classes to learn more about hate control. Now it's a toss up between Whitemage and Blackmage. Can't decide which I like better. WHM is at 48 and BLM is at 38.

Of course I had to jump on the bandwagon with everyone else and get the expansion.. Actually I preordered mine and picked it up the day it came out. Go Gamestop! After about 2 days of downloading the update (I have a very sloe connection) I finally got to experience Aht Urhgan. Pretty neat place.... If you wanna get ass raped by a buncha fleas! Got the new jobs. Not sure if I like them or not - I think I'll wait until the commotion dies down and there aren't about 78 PUP / COR / BLU all lfp in the dunes. Anyway, that's it for now. Have a nice night and happy gaming!
