you ass! just had to outdo my paint skillz didnt you? >_>

lol XD

Well guys i have to go back to class so ill see everyone on thursday. Before we do 4-2 i suggest getting the quest entitled spice gals in sandy. The key item we need to complete it is found right on the path for the BC for ouryu. The reward is a exp scroll, which as im sure we all know is a good thing for these fights. Does Diaobols ring a bell? requirements can be found here . Have fun farming and see everyone on thursday.

In Soviet Russia, mistmelts farm you!

Thursday, 7-7:30PM EST


Where: Riverne Site #B01 (Level 50 Cap)
What:

1. Farming Mistmelt items (hipp- tailfeathers, 2:1 ratio of feathers:melts).

2. As well, we will be looking to do Soboro Sukehiro GKT NM fight. This is a popped NM using Clustered Tars farmed from Cluster mobs near the ???. If you have a samurai 50+ or wish to have a samurai 50+ in the the semi-near future, please come if possible.


Why:
The mistmelts are very important for the 4-2 dragon fight, as they allow the dragon to be slept. The Soboro fight is very important to myself (being a samurai) and Zelllo is levelling samurai atm as well. So we know for sure that at least 2 fights of this need to take place. For the GKT fight, need:

2 NINS (Quetre, Zelllo), 1 Refresher (Ruo-BRD, Akabane-RDM?), Healers (Aydann-WHM?, +?), ??), Stunners (Fishy-BLM, Darvalor-DRK?) and various DD's (Timofh-THF). The idea is to avoid Self-Destruct move by stunning, and have the two ninja's swap hate as he attacks very fast (triple attack almost always). Bring a form of RR if possible just in case the bastard splooges on us. The drop is about 50% which is why Tim needs to bring his Treasure Hunter along and have it switched to the 'ON' position. The idea is, farm the clustered tar from surrounding bombs, pop NM, whoop on him and get drop. Repeat as neccessary.

I'll be on Wed., please let me know if you can come, and what job you would like to come as. This should be a very fun fight and good prep. for some of the tougher following level capped missions as well.

I'm in for thursday as WHM.  Or, if you need DD over healing, I do have 50 cap monk gear, but it will take me a while to get it together, so let me know.

sorry to leave so abruptly last night

Alrighty folkaru's, we've got some mistmelts and we've got some Soboro's. Now all we need to do is plan out when 4-2 will take place and what jobs everyone should be gear'd up as.

50 cap again,
flying dragon of death can die quickly if you have the right setup.

Apparently it's weak against magic (gee, never heard that before) so the more blm' you have the better (gee, never heard that before).

From what I can tell we have enough mistmelts to do a couple runs, I'm thinking in the Daahood of 6 total mistmelts is what we have, give or take a few.

It would be really helpful if we could get job listings out of everyone, then we can figure out a strategy for the fights.

I can personally come as BRD, BST, WAR, SAM and have decent gear for each (except brd >.>;;).

The idea for the 4-2 fight is to keep him on the ground for melee to be able to hit him (excluding ranged attack I believe) and so that he can be slept. Ninja tanks are tough straight up as he has some crazy magic and attack shite from what I can tell.

Zelllo suggested that he and I Soboro his ass non-stop while blm's nuke off skillchains, which wouldn't be a bad idea, but I forsee some dead samurai's followed quickly by dead blms... If you have any ideas for the fight then please pipe up, we all need to know what's going on as the Unstable Cluster fight demonstrated last night.

*ps: I'm locked out of POL right now, some stupid freakin thing is happening with all Canucks hooked up with Shaw and apparently some of the states and EU. Looks like the JP have hit their "block opposition" buttons.
