Fist of fury

Recently I took on the challenge to kill three notorious monsters to be worthy of a brown belt for my Monk job. Had to kill Deadly Dodo for its skin, didn't took too much time there even with some competition. Next I stood for days waiting for Molborger to appear for it's vine when it appeared Krile stunned it and we killed it. We had a competition there but we got lucky with it.
Nue for the Nue fang wasn't much of a problem because of the remote location. Killed it no problem and got my brown belt at last. That and getting the Ochimusha kotes made me a very happy Galka Monk. Can't wait to punch stuff in the face with all this nice equipment.

The Paladin trio

Just a fun picture I took the other day, Vitrolant, Chriseh and I passing time in Aht Urhgan Whitegate, seems like we all shop at the same auction house...

Yinyang troubles

Bermont loves his summoner job and he has set his mind in getting a nice piece of equipment for it, the Yinyang Robe. The thing is the notorious monster Shikigami has it and a lot of adventurers wants it too. Daily they gather at Ro'Maeve where Shikigami roams invisible to the naked eye stalking and attacking anyone who foolishly casts magic around it. For the past couple of days we fought it but luck hasn't been on our side.First time we didn't found the robe after we killed it, that was disappointing. The second time we managed to engage it but didn't survived on account of another monster that was attacking another party. They didn't killed it and we couldn't attack it cause it was their claim, somehow it aggroed us and knocked us down. Another party killed it afterward and got the drop. Third time is the charm as they say.... but not so much for us. We fought it again but this time I didn't lured it to a safer spot so additional aggro killed us. I felt so bad, we had it that time. The day after I got the news that Moogle Army helped Bermont get the claim and found the Yinyang robe at last, congratulations Bermont!

From fighting jellys to fighting tigers

I've been fairly busy lately, first up my friend Abdirazak needed a scroll of Utsusemi Ni so we did Royal Jelly a couple of times but no luck there.
Next was Dynamis - Buburimu, fun run with lots of knockdowns, explosions and hard monsters. We got to the boss of the zone Apocaliptic Beast, that thing was insane, fast and heavy hitter that does all jobs 2 hour abilities. All was well till it did hundred fists I was going to do invincible but we were paralyzed. It went downhill from there.
After that Cyaan needed help killing Ose in the Laberinth of Onzozo. He wanted to get his hands on an Assault Jerkin. Roninhiroishi, Bermont, Kyssandra and me went there but after looking for it for a while Kyssandra and Bermont had to go. Soon like it was expected it decided to show up. We decided to fight it the three of us but it wasn't a great idea, it hurt us... bad. Roninhiroishi had to go too but Arcaus and Vitrolant joined us. We fought again and it knocked down Vitrolant cause I was killing some other monster and not helping with Ose and had to escape afterwards. Long story short Jeangallo joined us and helped Arcaus kill it for us.
Cyaan got his Assault Jerking at last, was pretty fun as always, congratulations!

The silence of the rams

As much as I love the Thief job I have always wanted to train as a Monk. People that knew me on my last incarnation told me I trained the job and that I loved it. So that inspired me to get on the job and have fun.... but not yet. For now I'm in the process of gathering gear and be ready ahead of time. One of the things I'll need is a brown belt, but for that I will need to do a quest for a purple belt so they see I'm worthy of taking the other quest for the brown one. The quest was to kill to big rams that roams the highlands and the plateau and get the horns. Rampaging Ram wasn't so hard to find.Lumbering Lambert took me a while to find but managed to do so. Now to do the other belt quest which I hear it's a pain to do.

Explosive battle and dethroning the king

Kyssandra, Jeangallo, Arcaus, Reza, Bassetto, Bermont and I decided to try fighting the Snoll bomb for Promathia missions. I tried my best to hold the bombs attention while the others as Black Mages casted their magic. We didn't we but we were very close.After that, I helped Jeangallo and Kazoku-LS wait for a Behemoth to show up, but as with Fafnir, King Behemoth decided to showed up.
This thing was crazy, stunning us and casting meteor. Was a cool fight, took us a while too, knocked me out but it was all good. For defeating it I got a cool new tittle too, the Behemoth Dethroner.

Frenetic Rip and a wyrm

A couple of days ago Flotsam needed some help fighting imp to learn Frenetic Rip. Kiba, Abdirazak and Krile helped. Kiba been a Bluemage too learned the spell but little Flotsam didn't. Flotsam has been trying for a couple of days but no luck on learning it. I got the chance to help him again last night along with Krile, Abdirazak and Assa Redmage.We went to Arrapago Reef like before, to the same spot where an imp appears and fought it twice. On the second time we let it go crazy with the Frenetic Rip spawming and Flotsam was looking carefully as how the imp do the ability that he learned how to do it himself. He was so happy, cheering, screaming and jumping all around. Congratulations buddy, that takes care of one, many more to come.
After that I didn't know what to do, but that was soon fixed when I got a message from Jeangallo to help fight a wyrm in Dragon's Aery. I've haven't seen so many people packed in such a small space. They were waiting for a wyrm Fafnir to come to its little nest but I guess it's mother Nidhogg showed up.
Even thought we didn't get to fight I always love exploring places like this because I get to see creatures you normally don't see. I hope someday I can fight it, a Galka can only hope.

The sleeping paladin

Just a quick update, I haven't done much in the past couple of days. Done a couple of assaults, help my friends and work a lot. Been working a lot on the mines in Bastok and that has drained me this week making me very sleepy. Falling asleep when I'm adventuring or helping my Linkshell. Last night helped on Royal Jelly fight we got two scrolls of Utsusemi: Ni, Jedimasta gave me one as repayment for the one that I gave him so long ago, that was awesome of him to do and Wilson a Samurai in training needed help killing some demons for his last artifact piece, I offered to help out but when I got Palborough Mines I was very tired a fell asleep on the spot. I'm so sorry that I didn't got to help Wilson on the fight, but I heard Bassetto, Jeangallo and Arcaus helped him and won the fight. Congratulations Wilson and forgive the sleepy Paladin.

Flotsam's new headgear

Flotsam has been enjoying the Bluemage job in adventuring and in missions and the time has come for him to do his last quest for his artifact equipment. The place: Alzadaal Undersea ruins, the target: Nepionic Soulflayer, hunting team: MoogleArmy ofcourse. Good thing was that there is a staging point close by and some needed that so they dropped by to help. I've fought this before and this thing is nasty but the fight wasn't that hard this time because a lot knew what to expect from this monster.With the soulflayer dead Flotsam completed his quest and became the paragon of Bluemage excellence. Congratulations Flotsam that artifact set looks good on you.
