Nothing But The Shoes

Started the weekend off with a Fafnir camp. We actually had a decent turnout for the first window, and as a result, Fafnir did not pop during that window. -_-‘ He didn’t pop until the 6th window, giving all the botting linkshells on Shiva the opportunity to get there. The LS that won the claim had a Lv6 WAR there to spam Provoke to get claim. It’s a level 75 zone – that character had no other business there besides being a claim bot. Not that it was time completely wasted. I fished up over 8 stacks of Moat Carp in the process. I decided to hit the Windurst auction house for more fish and take them out to San d’Oria before the FNLE Rostrum Pumps started. All in all, I turned in about 20 more stacks of fish (5418/10000).

Rumps was… interesting. Let me start by saying that we are rather experienced with the fight involved. The first fight went as smoothly as could be. However, since we had done Fafnir first, it was too late for several of our members to continue other pops. Our BSTs and several other key jobs left for the night. On our second pop (Talonshard’s pop), the Feeler Antlion spawned babies faster than we could handle them, and there were no BSTs to handle the adds from atop the pit. Alastor did eventually pop, but we were weakened and he wiped us out. After that, Talon had to log out for the night, but Keri logged in as him and dual boxed. We got up and tried one more time and had just enough people to squeeze out a win. We decided to give it to Talon since his went so badly, and logged him off there in nothing but his new shoes. -.^ Must have been a wild night there, bud!

Rounded out the evening spamming some campaign battles, and got my buffer back and then some. I can’t say enough about the campaign system – short, sweet, and easy events that you can undertake on just about any job over 60 and stop when you’re done. Just right for a casual player wanting to unwind for the night.

Cleaning day tomorrow, so I’m not sure what we’ll get to in game. There’ll likely be another Fafnir camp, and he’ll likely be late again because we’ll be ready for him… Shoopid dwagon.
