BCNM 40: One BLM, ftw!

Black Mage:56 White Mage:52 Warrior:56 Thief:66

This group fared much better. We won it every time except for once when our time ran out. I felt bad for the guy that didn't get anything so I sent him 20k. We were only 2 Flesh Eaters away from clearing it too so the out of time message caught us completely by surprise. Needless to say, I timed the next one myself and from then on we cleared the BCNM in less and less time.

We had a RDM WHM, me the BLM, and 3 Rangers. This worked out great I think but it was slow at first cuz it was some people's first time and as usual I blundered in and cast the first Sleepga without Sneak which caused some alarm but I was ok... thanks guys.

At first I thought, "Why bring a stupid RDM? Since he can't Refresh someone must be doin him a favor." Well that's until the first time I saw him use Convert. Nuff said.

A secret that I learned with this group is that the monster always warps you away facing away from the camp so after he warps you if you just run backwards you get to safety. Kudos to Aake for a organizing a really good group. They were all raring to go again today but I have to go out of town for two days and take my cousin to his uncle.

The drops were pretty good too. We got Erase 3 times out of the 5 times that we won. Of course, I didn't get one cuz I'm le' fooness unlucky. We did /random to determine the order and instead of being fifth, this time I turned out to be first.

Based on the last group's results, I know why some people don't ever want to go first on these events... it's because we are likely to lose the first and second maybe til people get all comfortable with each other and the pattern of events. This was not the case this time, I slept mobs with Sleepga with the occasional timely Choke spell if the mobs interrupted me with Stonega and saved as much mp as I could for the last few at which point I Manafont'd and started chaining Blizzaga and Aeroga til it was done. I suggested to the others that they use their 2hr on their BCNM and sure enough we saw a lot of Eagle Eye Shots take down the NM to make our life a bit easier. In addition, I brought 5 Melon Juices and 2 Yagudo drinks which I consumed entirely during my run only.

Now I just gotta wait til my stuff sells and hopefully I will have enough from the sale to buy Erase. {Can I have it?}
