Monday Nights with Uchipu

Black Mage:50 White Mage:50 Warrior:51 Thief:35

I have found using my Thief to be a great deal of fun when I get people that are patient in a party. I admit that I don't feel like an expert with THF yet and even after reading many posts from people about THF in the Job Forums, I don't feel that I do a lot for the party yet. I am much more oriented with Viper Bite SATA now than I was and I use the ws usually at the beginning of a fight for max dmg. The problem I find usually is that we need a backup voker for me to be able to "do my thing". Sometimes this means I gotta use a RNG or MNK as my "trick partner". But, if they don't voke the mob off the tank, it means I gotta wait til close to the end of the fight to do SATA a second time on them so that the mob can't retaliate too much.

Something also interesting about THF is that you get to tell how the party is doing with regards to damage over time. If the monster is dead before SATA is up then you know you are in a good group. SATA (Sneak Attack Trick Attack) comes up every minute.

I was unable to go last night with Uchipu to Windy to do her Monday run. I was looking forward to it all weekend and planned to be there. I even looked up the quest info. But alas, unforeseen circumstances botched my plans again.
