So, when we heard from Trustme that we can do Dynamis – Windurst tonight, and that Trust was heading to Windy with the glass, Elwyn and I left the Boyahda Tree, heading to Windurst for gathering.
I have to confess that I felt worried about what I heard. I was afraid to part with them. These several months I’ve been with them had made me love Linkaga so much. It was a shock to hear he was going to leave. When I had a chance, I blurted out into the LS chat, asking whether Trust would leave forever or was just taking a break. (Maybe that question was why Elwyn said “whoa” in PT chat, lol)
He said he had to take a long break, like 3 months. He didn’t sound quite well, though
But all I can is wishing him well and looking forward to his return. His presence has always been pleasant and it would be lonely without him.
Ahh…well, anyway we entered with about 20 people, maybe. Really, we had a gratifying run, to which someone commented that it was suitable as a farewell run (until several months) for Trust. <3 <3 <3 First off, we had far less deaths happening than usual. Arkades also died only once! Which was while farming after boss. XD I died once, too, when we half-wiped before pulling boss.
One of the exciting moments for me was when I accidentally pulled hate on a RNG Yagudo. I kinda did Asuran Fists as usual, but the damage went up to 8xx, nothing special. However, it happened to Skillchain (Darkness) with someone else’s WS (well, that happened quite a lot and I’m used to it, and people said that SC damage DOESN’T add up to your damage in hate pool) at 8xx also. It friggin’ turned to me, mate, it friggin’ turned. Could be bad luck or bad timing… And it did an Eagle Eye Shot on my head.
I was saved by a split second, by Kryton. Thanks, man! It would be sad to die so early in the run!
If you see the log carefully, you would agree with me that that damn Yagudo was using hax! He was readying his Double Kick but in the same time shot an EES?! WTH??! That’s absolutely cheating! RAWR! So I took 14xx damage in a blink of an eye. Cures were tossed from everywhere, weee~ I felt so loved!
Anyway, if you click on the pic, it will show the full log of that moment. Notice the part where I went “Wheee~”? It was because I was admiring that Darkness Skillchain’s effect…. The big black/purple orb over mob’s head is just cool! I was also happy to see the SC DMG at 100% of WS DMG. I didn’t notice, until later, that I actually got hit – and worse yet, with an EES. The next second I couldn’t do anything but stared at my almost empty HP bar, thinking I would again waste Chihiru’s MP on a Raise. Shouldn’t it because of Kryton, my perception would have been true.
He saved my ass!!!
So, well, as a token of my gratitude, here’s a nice screenshot of Kryton.
So cool! He was swinging his Great Katana at the Yagudo! Looks powerful, and yes his WS is powerful that someone said Kryton had a bulleye mark on his body, so every mob in there likes to kill him first in the group. XD Ah well, if this is real life or other game, he might have lopped off Lusian’s head
During this run, we talked about the name of Yagudo, I said I hate the “Eyepiercer” NM, and Kryton said there was a “Mithrarider!” LOL! He was a bit wrong, he said a few mins later. That Orc NM in Xarcabard (sorry I remembered it wrong) Beaucedine was actually Mithraslaver. He mixed the name up with other one, Galkarider. Those NMs also includes Humegutter, Tarutoaster, and Elvaanlopper. When Kryton got to this part of the description, someone yelled “WTF? Elvaanlopper!??” lol! Maybe it was Dragonkng or Rhodry, I’m guessing from their being Elvaans.
And so Lusian asked up “What is lopper?”
Stardragon or Sieka, or maybe Chihiru (sorry I can’t remember who said what) answered something like “to cut” and “to chop off the body parts.” And then Ghostblade elaborated it in a short, yet vivid definition, “to cut out in one solid motion.” Whooo….That’s a clear picture. Thanks a lot. Just genious!
I just thought this picture was funny so I snapped a screenshot. This Yagudo DRG acted all important and went up to the higher platform, having us running behind it like faithful follower. >.> What the…? You think you’re an emperor and that’s your throne? Piffffffffff!!!!
In this pic, we were told “you can camp at the death house, it’s cleared” so some mages actually went to camp “at” the Death House. Ahahaha! Trustme was far to the left, ordering Dragonkng to pull stuff. The alliance awaited.
Under the bridge, one of the spots we often wipe. Today, however, things here went smoothly. I think maybe only 1 BLM had died, might be Parasite, I can’t recall precisely. Elwyn and maybe Stardragon were up at the house sleeping mobs in order to protect us down here
Thanks!
Here, where we all need to stand tightly on the bridge to avoid aggro from the house in the back. I love Trustme’s order, “huddle together.” Woot! Huddle! I feel like an emperor penguin in an adorable colony!
Here BLMs stayed with Trustme, they would time nuke, I guess? Or it was an NM trigger, I don’t know. Elwyn was just off the picture playing a traffic police, giving people directions to camp, which was at circle on the bridge.
Oh, here, here, in this pic above was when we failed to sacrifice Arkades survived while many others went down. So while mages raised people, and we rested for weakness to wear off, he was protecting the mages with all his hate tools!!
These are the last 2 pics from the run. It was when we finished farming because time was running out. I took these screenshot just before we got kicked from the zone.
In total, we got 2 of 100’s and 13 pieces of armor. SAMx2 (and you know, first SAM dropped from the 2nd mob after we entered woohoo! Trustme said it’s because the Goblin hated Leftster, so Trust has been telling Leftster not to buy the glass, lol!) WHMx2 BSTx2 SMN PLD BLU WAR DRK and NIN as far as I can remember, the 13th piece was something I can’t remember
Trustme also said we got 163 singles, so it was a good harvest
Oh, and poor Lusian and Elfitine. When I told them the run was cancelled, they went off to do their things. Lusian took his cold pill, while Elfitine logged off and let dad use computer, as opposed to running to Windy. So later when Trustme showed up on gather time, and we found out we didn’t have to cancel the run, Lusi was in a miserable state. He was nodding off the whole run. Elfitine didn’t pop. I sent SMS to Elfi’s cellphone and got a reply “wth.” Later it turned out that Elfi’s dad wasn’t done using computer, so it made Elfi late.
Boo me. I should have kept quiet.
Oh and….I, again, outlotted people on 100. This time it was Mogley’s excitement moment that I crushed. Well, I did that with the 100 bill in Xarc twice already, but with different people. I think one was Elfi, and other was…oh no, Mogley? It could have been him too! GRRRR!!!! Dang if it was also him. Uhhh, if I have more jobs that meet the requirement to main lot AFs in Dyna, this wouldn’t happen. This 100 curency lotting makes me hate myself when I found out that I wouldn’t pass even when I felt guilty for winning. It’s just…. ugh!!
Anyway, it seems that we will hold even when Trustme takes a long break. I, who refuses to leave, am so glad we will continue. This group is the greatest. Ah, well, maybe not, but at least they’re the sweetest for sure. They’re all adorable. I’ve grown to love Linkaga so much during my months of membership, which I think was since the end of November 2008. Oh, wow, time flies. I’ve been with Linkaga for 9 months already? No wonder why I feel attached to them. ><;
Again, I will hold, and I wish we hold. We all have been through so much and I know we can go through more. /cheer to my fellow Dynamis-goers. I will do my best to contribute to the LS and friends.
