FNLE: Drunken Monkey Style

The week couldn't be over fast enough. Stayed 30 minutes after I was supposed to leave on a call that would not end. And this after I turned in my timesheet. I'll be 'creative' with my timesheet next week.

After the kind of week we just had, DeAnn got a six-pack of beer and we gamed the night away. We tried to get a BLM party together with Talon's MNK, but our PLD tank was an idiot and our RDM was one of those stuck-up endgame players who, ironically, couldn't perform as a RDM for beans. The only able pickup player was a DNC that we had partied with before. He warned me about the PLD a little too late. We ended up disbanding so that we could get rid of the dead weight, but couldn't regroup for another pass.

So after a few beers, we tossed around some ideas as to what to do next. Turned out that Talon had a LOT of catching up to do on his BLM as far as AF quests. He hadn't even done his weapon quest (available at 40, he being 54). So we geared up, he flagged the quest and we all teleported out to Xarcabard to beat up a poor helpless elemental. He had to log out soon after that for the night.

Enter more beer and a quick beer run. Keri and I decided to try to duo some experience. I had read a guide that described soloing BLM, and I figured that two BLM's would make much easier work of it than one. We went to Gustav Tunnel, around where Lv60 people go to party, and started picking off Goblin Beastmasters' pet leeches. We got a experience chain #4 before the party that was there left, making it very hard to pull anything. We decided it best to go and keep our experience.

Finished off the night with a Garlaige Citadel party to help us get behind the gates. We enlisted the help of two LS mates, one needed to get behind Gate #3 for a quest. Keri and I both got our old gauntlets, and are one step closer to being done with BLM AF. Sky gods tomorrow, might try getting our BLM hands finished up, too. We'll see. ^_^
