Demon Farm: A Rather Unremarkable Day

Fairly uneventful day for a change. Dynamis – Xarcabard was this evening, and the leaders decided that we were going to try things a little differently on this run. Instead of making the usual cut to the Castle, we were going to farm the demons in the beginning of the zone. We had a magnificent wipe. The first thing the demons did was cast Sleepga, and in that packed corridor, there was no escaping the spell. By the time my sleep wore off, half the alliance was face down. After a few pulls, we decided to go back to the route we were used to, and 2-3 wipes later we ran out of time. It was an altogether short run, and yielded only a DRK drop and a few coins. Next time, I think we could do better if mages brought poison potions (to fight off sleep), melees brought reraise items (to reduce downtime) and we focused on time extensions first and go to farming after.

Farming night tomorrow, and boy do I need it. I have moat carp, magic scrolls and BLM equipment on my wish list, and a slowly dwindling bank of gil with which to acquire it.
