A Good Night

BLM:59 WHM:54 Summoner: 30 WAR:56 THF:69

This is an old picture of me when I used to fish at Knight's Well. There isn't a fishing gear hat out there so choosing you hat when you fish kind of says something about you to all of your fellow fisher people. I chose my THF AF hat since it's very distinctive.

I haven't fished here in an eon and I really liked doing it too. I find that I can talk on the linkshell like crazy while just scooping up fish by the stacks. I also find that I run out of insect paste rather quickly if I don't load up on it to the nth degree.

I finally finished my Promyvion-Mea quest last night. We had farmed items for anima on Saturday night. We planned to accumulate enough items to get anima for the fight and then go through. I took my BLM/THF to farm since my BLM could d2 ppl and my /THF would give us more drops. Then we got aggro and died from a link and I was forced to use my 2hr which left us without a 2hr to use from my SMN. Well at that point they wanted to quit and do it last night and I told them I had plans for last night with a girl so they said whatever and they called it a night.

Last night my plans with a girl didn't work out so I got home after going out at around 2am or so and lo and behold they were just about to go back in and try again. So I switch to my SMN gear and we start farming for a little while and then we go in.

We were lucky. No aggro at all the whole way and even at the tight spot where we had to aggro a Weeper to get thru, the leader just aggroed and jetted for the exit and I sicked Carbuncle on him and noone was even damaged hardly at all.

At that point we discussed strategy. The Psychoanima is used to keep the NM from using normal attacks and we had four of them so we set up and order to use them. The Hysteroanima stops the mob from using his ws so I advised them to use it after 50% hp and they agreed. I went in as SMN and first thing I did was cast Ice Armor on everybody because I knew from my experience that every paralyzed attack was gonna amt to a whole lot less dmg. Then I cancelled Shiva and brought in Ramuh and used his Thunderspark and sicked him on the NM. Then a little while later, all the while using Melon Juices, I cancelled Ramuh and brought in Shiva to use her 2hr but that's when the NM got crazy and he killed off Shiva. So I summoned Titan with only 86mp to spare and I knew I might not get to use the 2hr so I immediately used Astral Flow but I was too far away. I was clear back with the mages and for my commands to take effect I have to be close to the monster. So I run up to the monster and use Astral Flow and then search for my Blood Pact label but then I got hit by a Carousel and I was running low on mp so I forget everything and stand still and just use my 2hr so that it doesn't get cancelled and sure enough it hits for 426 dmg. I know that I am gonna be able to use it again or even 2 more times so I run to the back, pop another Melon Juice, and hope the party stays alive long enough for me to hit it again. I cancel Titan since he was using up MP and rest, but just as I was nearing the 10 second mark for recast, my party finished off the mob.

I was truly speechless. I didn't even think it possible and as I walked around in Lufaise Meadows, I forgot all about the girl I was supposed to meet. I was in heaven.

Ya think?!!
