I BRING SEXY BACK!

.....................ok I will pose my sexy DRK for joo ppl. (Izman told me to do this >< ) Salvage: .............well Salvage was sucky on the drops (once again) and I was also sucky with my fair share of mistakes. However Skooter went as his DRK instead of his THF and he was sporting his 3 DRK Relic +1's ........as seen here. Assault: ......................Rav, Mav, Invy, and I spammed a few Red Vs Blue's with me dieing once again on one of the runs. Dynamisis-Windy: ...............................Death-aga , Abyss Gauntlets, and Warriors Mask for me..... followed by turning in the items for a Anrin Obi. I'm feeling a little Woooooooot-aga right now with my screwdriver in one hand and a PC mouse in the other. Not to mention of coarse the -7k XP from the Death-aga in Dynamisis-Windhurst. Enjoy the pics below. ;) (BELOW) This is such a awesome PLD tanking Body Gear. Here Araystan is wearing a Hydra Haubert. It's stats are: DEF:45 HP-20 MP+20 Accuracy+10 Enmity+9 Enchantment: Adds "Refresh" effect. (BELOW) Yes it's true MR. RingThree..... Omoikitte has fallen for me. As you can see in this picture while you were melee'ing a Dynamisis YAG mob ............. we were holding hands....... LMAO ..... No seriously whats funny about this picture is Omoikitte was running in the direction where I was and we both got slept in this exact position. Yes I know ....However which reason is more believable. One is defintely true and the other false. You decide. ~BAM (BELOW) I love this pic ....MrBooBoo has his head somehow penatrating someone else's ass in this awesome one in a million death pic.

J.O.S (Jailer Of Smack)

Dynamisis Juno: ......................on this run there was a couple of wipes. Wipes are normal in a Dynamisis run especially during large pulls in which a NIN mob or SMN mob 2hours on your allaince. I'm sure alot people feel that a wipe is embarassing but who cares when you get the win and maximize all time restraints. Anyway wipe pictures are always fun and sometimes funny to look at. So here are a few wipe pics from this run for your enjoyment. On a side note I got my WAR hands which leaves me 2/5 on WAR relic gear now. The SKY is falling: ...............next up was a SKY run. One of the things that bothers me most about doing SKY with this LS is most of the leader members are all on VENT. This sometimes can get irratating when certain information is not passed onto the rest of the members......But non the less we still have a good time. Including last night, when a Doll NM decided to use a MeltDown AOE move, while my STUN recast was down and Ashhhhh's Headbunt got resisted. Apparently there is a new type of Gear build for Blu called a "Smacking-Build" . Crimsonking added to this and informed me that there is a NM in SEA called the Jailer Of Smacking. It drops the Smacking Torque for that 307 Elite Smacking Skillz. While we were discussing this awesome new Build for BLU.... I saw the oppurtunity to TEA-BAG RingThree ................ Kallo style. ...........................see you all online tonight ;)

SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY (Dynamisis Lord x1 and Kirin x2)

.............ok I first want to apologize for the lack of ingame pics in this post because my X-Box frooze during the Dynamisis run and I lost all my awesome pictures. My X-box is garenteed to freeze once every 64 person Dynamisis run. Dynamisis Xarcabard: ....................this was my first Dynamisis Lord run and reading about what that bish is capable of .......made me sweat a little. So because of this I decided to built my buffer from the measly 4k into a much better 17k. As luck would have it, we wiped in the 1st 5 minutes of the run and I was starting to think my buffer wasn't gonna be big enough to make it through the day............ because later .......I realized I have 2 other Kirin fights to boot. Well after a few more deaths we were ready to begin the Dynamisis Lord battle and then my X-Box frooze up. It only took me 1 minute to log back on. I was expecting mass death-aga on a scale never before seen by my own eyes.......but once I emerged from DC land I saw a message. "Examine the ??? for the Key Item" I was like holy shit we won in a minute or less. Thus completing that area for me. Also to note on that run my friend got her Dragoon Wyrm Armet Relic Head gear and I got my 1st pc of Relic Warrior gear the Warrior's Lorica body. I was happy for Omoikitte because she has been waiting for this item for few years I think........ and only 3 have dropped in about a year or two for the LinkShell Obsidian. Kirin x2: .................next was 2 in a row Kirin fights. 1st dropped a Osode and a D. body while the 2nd dropped a W. Legs. Congrats to the item winners and to CrimsonKing on her new zoomy legs. She will be using these legs alot since she kites alot LinkShell stuff for Versus as one of the games most awesome RDM's . She reminds me of another awesome RDM called NinjaNymphet another one of my good friends. ;) ..............................anyway all in all I died like 7 times and only lost like 5k which was a lot less then expected. Tonight I have a Limbus run and I will try and get some good pics while having a bit of fun. ~BAM

LOT 'ing & DEATH-AGA .....

....................... ok in todays post, I'm just gonna post alot of pictures and show what I have been doing in the past 2 weeks .....inwhich I have neglected my Blog. I am at a point in endgame that I need to make a few decisions. First of which ..... I have decided to do Dynamisis with OB. I actually made this decision 2 months ago but took a while to get my aplication thru and I have already made 4 runs since then. I have chosen this LS because it does not interfere with all the other endgame activities I do. Secondly I have decided that any endgame activity I do is not worth the drama or agravation for the work put into it. If I feel I am no longer enjoying the people I do end game events with or feel they are being unfair with their lotting systems then I will simply stop doing that particular endgame event with them any longer. I am not a greedy person but we all enjoy the rewards when someone gets a new item or gear. This is not the same as a person only seeking items and screwing people on their way there. Those people normally find no one to group up with at endgame and leave the game solely because of that reason. I personally am a commeted member to any LS I join. Sometimes the game will not be fun and will feel pretty much like real life work. This includes camping Despot, a Ro'meave Water, a Ulli stone, or trying to get one of the 1st tier Sea gods to pop as examples. I am now at the point where while I put all this effort into these LinkShells .... there are very few drops that I could use and are also very very very hard to get. This is ok with me because I do not mind waiting for them. However some of the LS's I'm in think it is fair that I can not lot on these items. They think that buy placing me last in line or changing the rules it makes it fairer for other people to lot. Now we all know that talking about lotting is "TABOO" because it leaves you open for people to point fingers at you and say you are a greedy person. However let me ask you this question. If a endgame event becomes no longer fun to play with that group of people in the event and you can no longer lot on anything that the Linkshell works towards then why are you there ? The only possible good answer you could give is that you are a commeted member and would like to see other people get their fairshare of the loot. This is the strongest part of why I play this game. ....... community and the fact that your ingame character reflects you and that is why people like to play this game with you. That is why I do not like the Drama and will leave a LS or any group of people doing endgame events if the lotting issues place me in a position that will effect how people look at my character in this game. Drama no thanks........ fun yes please. ....................ok with the Blog word thing out of the way....on to the pictures ;) DEATH-AGA: RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN: (DYNAMISIS) PRETTY: ME AS DRG CAMPING KV: JOF: DYNAMISIS EXIT STAGE LEFT: WEDDING ?: ........ ok I know this Blog entry sucked ...... ~BAM

THEY CALL HIM KALLO !

............Hi all sorry I haven't updated my blog the last 2 weeks because I have been very very busy. However I am gonna get right on that. ........ just for my friend Kallo who has been a new frequent flyer in the Versus LinkShell....... I am making this small update in my Blog. ......... Plus I'm gonna do it by promoting Kallo's Blog which is now linked on my Blog's Link's so you should check it out. So far my favorite Post he has is the one where he intruduces me. Yea I know it makes me sound like I'm full of myself but I am very flattered by what he posted about my character and I wanted to just say .... "Thank you you Tea-Bagging Noturious Thief !!!!" By the way here is the link for that same post "CLICKY" ......... and if you go to his other posts he even got me in his Tea-bagging shananigans. ><

CAHONIES and RINGTHREE's REWARD O.o

IX'aDRG and The JAILOR OF CAHONIES: .........................I left work a little early Thursday so that I could make it to a little Sea action. Versus LS was already there farming IX'aDRG for probably 15 minutes. I was missing one of the maps there, so I got lost pretty fast trying to find the Versus LS. As I was in the middle of being lost I agroed some soccer ball mobs. It was no problem losing the agro, as I swapped in my Enfeebling magic gear and used SleepII on them. Since I also came /THF I used the ol' FLEE ability untill I was far enough away that the mob deagroed and disapeared back to it's spawn point. Well........ by the fourth time of me continualy agro'ing mobs, a soccer ball decided it wasn't gonna let me get the spell SleepII off, and I died. Good thing I used a RR2 item when I first zoned into Sea. With the help of Hellzfury navigating me in /tell ....(who also doesn't have a Map I might add) I made it to the rest of the LS members. As soon as I got there IX'aDRG poped and agroed. Then all craziness broke out. Ringthree and a few other key members were just arriving and we did a new strategy of killing IX'aDRG. I call it the IX'aDRG Shuffle. We use the 4 warp points to bounce the hate back and forth between members and let the 3 other Wyverns, 3 other links, and IX'aDRG's little helper kite themselves. Listen I am not gonna explain this crazy Strategy. If you would like to know please /tell RingThree in game on the Odin Server. ..........................Next we went and poped the Jailor of Fortitude 2 times. I used my magic gear which did a hell of alot more damage then my melee gear. I was using Drain, DrainII, Absorb-Vit, and BioII. Meanwhile Elfaria was doing 1600-1900 big BLM spells and getting killed every few minutes. By the time we killed the second JOF a Torque dropped which went to ASHHHHH who now has a 297 Sword Skill. I was really happy for him and I know he was flying high and feeling good !
LIMBUS and RingThree's Reward:
........................................next on the dinner menu was Dish of Cosmo Soap and a side of Limbus. According to RingThree we were getting a reward because we did so well in Sea and also because a fuck'n Torque actually fuck'n dropped. Our reward was... a easy and fast Limbus run. Gee wow RingThree....... you reward us with the same Limbus run that we failed from Monday. Gotta love RingThree . He always makes things seem cooler then what they actually are.
RINGTHREE>> oHHHHHH looky a SHINY PENNY !!!!
JESS>> errr it's just a penny o.O
Of coarse I'm just teasing with ya. RingThree is a cool guy and also a awesome player on FFXI !
..........................................anyway we finished that run and I went AFK and fell asleep. ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzZzzz THE END ;P

SCYTHE 6-HIT BUILDS & WHY I USE A DEATH SCYTHE +1

SCYTHE "X-HIT" BUILDS: 528 Delay Scythe: 7-hit: with 0 StoreTP 6-hit: /SAM+Brutal gives you the 16.+ StoreTP required for 6-hit without needing a WS as 1st hit. /WAR (or anything but /SAM), you could reach 6-hit with 2 of the 4 hits from Guillotine. You will need to use all the StoreTP a DRK can use: RajasRing +BrutalEarring +ChivalrousChainNeck +AskarKorazinBody +Attila'sEarring +EchporiaRing +BushidoCapeBack. 5-hit: impossible, even if you were to use StoreTP food. 513 Delay Scythe: 8-hit: with 0 StoreTP 7-hit: /Sam ......Actually, here it does make a difference: with a single-hit WS, you'd need 3 StoreTP, but with Guillotine, you don't need any, providing you land at least 3 hits. 6-hit: /SAM+Rajas does the trick. Once again, counting additional hits from Guillotine, you only need +16 (/SAM+Brutal), but you need to land all hits. Can't get 6-hit with any other sub. ....I use /sam+Brutal+Rajas+Chiv+Echporia Ring which nets me a true 6-hit build without counting any WS's as a hit.... This also allows me to switch to ws gear if I want when I WS and still get a 6-hit build while losing some of my store-tp from the gear switch on the WS hit. 5-hit: Even less possible. 501 Delay Scythe: 8-hit: with 0 StoreTP 7-hit: /SAM or Rajas+Brutal.....counting the hits 2 to 4 on Guillotine 6-hit: This is where it matters. First, can't get 6-hit without /SAM on this delay either, obviously. /SAM Need 23 StoreTP to get "regular" 6-hit. /SAM=+15 Rajas=+5 Brutal=+1 Askar=+5 Chivalrous=+1 Attila's Earring=+1 Can't get 6-hit with anyother sub. 5-hit: Forget about it ! NOTES: Attila's Earring: rather do without but you can now also use a Ecphoria Ring instead. Chivalrous Chain: it's not bad, but when you have a Justice Torque or PCC, you don't want to use it. Askar: Pretty nice, but you're sacrificing 13 to 25 Accuracy, depending on what you're using from this list: Edit: When I say 6-hit is impossible without /SAM on 513 and 501 delay, I'm not including StoreTP food. WHY I USE DEATH SCYTHE +1 OVER A TRED'S SCYTHE: TRED's SCYTHE: (DELAY 528) 1) Tred's Scythe has a hidden effect which is a garenteed Crit. on every 13th hit unless you miss or naturally crit on that hit anyway rendering the point of using this Scythe useless. 2) Dreizehn means thirteen in German and other Latin derived languages. 3) Further more Tred's bonus crit becomes less impressive the more ATK you have since Crits start showing less of an improvement the higher your pDIF is. Tred Scythe's extra DPS from the hidden effect is simply eaten alive by a DRK who has high ATK/STR stats and uses meat food on another Scythe. DEATH SCYTHE +1: DELAY 513 1) 98 Base Damage is the highest base damage Scythe except for the Relic Scythe and is tied with the same base damage as the Triton Scythe which only 2 have ever been sold on the Odin Server. 2) It also has a Drain effect that procs alot more often then people who don't own one actually know about. Depending on the mob I get normlly 35-65 additional damage and it gets added to my HP like a cure spell. Now some people argue this procs 0 damage when you have full HP but no matter what you do in this game your HP is never full for very long unless your are not in battle. You do not need to pull hate or tank to lose HP because most mobs in the game spam AOE spells, tp-ablities, tp-weapon skills, or use breath moves . 3) 513 delay seems to be the Kennedy Magik Bullet for a DRK Scythe delay for the most efficent 6-hit build. 4) I have seen many people do charts and charts and more charts of data and they always put the #1 ......300TP WS Scythe for highest spike damage as the Death Scythe +1. Once again I am not including the Relic Scythe. ...........I would like to point out that when the Tred Scythe was first introduced in the game the endgame gear was far worse then what we have today. If you take that and minus our 2-hand update you can see that the crit on a regular Scythe melee hit would have been a great deal more then it is today. Thus at that time a Tred's Scythe would have been better then a Death Scythe +1. However dispite old school Drks who like to proclaim that the Tred's Scythe > Death Scythe +1 (just like old dogs don't like to learn new tricks)..... today the best Scythe you can AH purchase is a DeathScythe +1. Also yes I have been on this game since the NA release on the PS-1 (1st day not the PC which was earlier). I however always went my own way with DRK and alot of the things I did was laughed at back then.... ...now most DRK's do those same things today. I'm not trying to promote myself.... just trying to promote other DRK's to try and be more open and to always keep adjusting your playing style. Do not succumb to being happy and ignorant to things that work today.... because they may be obsolete or less efficent tommorrow. (some of the information above was borrowed from other website forums from other people and changed to reflect my views, ideas, and opinions and current gear situations)

IN A PICKLE !

VERSUS SALVAGE (SUNDAY) ..................today our Salvage run was very much like eating a sandwhich. This Salvage run sandwhich, was too heavy on the melee musturd and too light on the mage mayo. It was very spicey but defintely needed alot more mayo. Anyway LOL it was a good run but the DAM SE Stingy Drop Troll struck again. At the end of the run it got a little crazy as you can see from the following pics. We became the pickle between 4 Ramparts pcs of bread. DARKDAWN'S DARKSPARK #10 ? (MONDAY) .....................my friend DarkDawn is currently now leveling DRK and needed some quick help finishing DarkSpark to complete his SMN AF hands. Otherwise he can't finish his DRK AF. Seeing that DarkDawn has alot of jobs already at 75 he has to finish all the AF Armor sets so he can store them. As many of you know inventory space is precious especially when you have more then 1 job at 75. One of the things that uses alot of his inventory space is his 30 pcs of Relic Gear. Unlike AF it is harder to get the full sets for Relic Gear. I only have 2 pcs of DRK Relic Gear myself so I am not 100% sure you can store them as a set. Either way I am sure those 30 pcs of Relic Gear that DarkDawn has are not full sets. Thus minus 30 inventory spaces just to hold them. The fight it self was easy. I went as DRK/SAM and DarkDawn went as WHM. VERSUS LIMBUS (MONDAY) ..................not much to tell here just a split run. One win and one wipe but I had to leave at the end of the run because RemnantBrave was waiting for me to do a Salvage run. Before I left I donated my coins to the rest of the LS members and attained 1/2 of the 2 items needed for my last WAR AF+1 gear. Yea keep laughing about the WAR AF+1. REMNANT BRAVE SALVAGE (MONDAY) ...................LIMBUS----->BASTOK PORT------>AHT WHITEGATE------> BHAF THICKETS and on my fat assed, slower then you could possiblywalk, Choco I go. Yes it is true I am out of ISP again. This means I can not use the Portal in Aht Whitegate. I did try to do a Beseiged the other day but the dam X-BOX frooze again and I lost all my points. Any way it's not that bad of a Choco ride so I may do this for now on when ever I can get to a Salvage run early enough. I really wish SE made it possible to see the Choco's name that you give them. Mine is called Dark Night and I think it is cool as hell. /em waves to Emergent Elm .... and in I go. OK now we were doing a 7 person AC Boss run and the dam SE Stingy Drop Troll struck again. I mean come on mobs were either not dropping any cells or they were only dropping the same ones that we didn't need. this meant going out of our way to try and get the needed cells. That is where this runs problems stemmed from. Thus we used all our time trying to get those needed cells giving us only 5 minutes left to fight the Boss. All in all not a great day, but I still managed to pull off a having a bit of fun and a good time. BUT..... Dammit SE tommorrow when you serve me a cheese sandwhich please please please hold the pickles !!!!!
