This week’s been a lot of Salvage, like normal. Monday saw us do a fl1/2 Bhaf. farm, and oooh did the first rampart put out. We entered the zone with 8ish people, and as we’re getting ready to kill Mad Bomber, Seite asks our red mage to pull the rampart with Blind, since it’s Darksday. I pipe up that it was Lightsday when we entered, and that Zhaylom functions based on what day we entered…so why don’t we try that! He agreed, and I pulled with Flash~.
A few minutes in, Gate Widow pops, dropping not only a coin purse but also our second pair of Macha’s Cuffs! I call out who gets it, and get a tell or two asking me why I’m not lotting when I have a right to. However! I’ve already got Macha’s Robe and Macha’s Slops at this point, the latter of which I outlotted our red mage for~. I just quietly respond that I’ll get the next pair…and before the first pair of Macha’s Cuffs left the treasure pool, another Gate Widow spawned, dropping both a coin purse and another pair of gloves ^___^ As was pointed out to me, I’m now 3/5 on Morrigan 35 pieces, and am very excited about this! Now if I could only finish the pieces! Before my Macha’s Cuffs dropped to me, a THIRD Gate Widow spawned, dropping a coin purse as well as the Marduk 35 legs, which our bard was quite happy to snatch up. We got a fourth Gate Widow before all was done as well, but it only dropped a coin purse.
Unfortunately, the second floor rampart wasn’t quite so nice to us; no NM, no rocks, no 35s. We called it there on Monday. Tuesday we planned a fl4/boss Bhaf. run, which was a disaster. The first gear used restoral 3-4 times, and then warped away on us :< Lame. We then killed the chariot to weaken the boss, and zoned up. We were a bit low on members, but we were hoping it’d be ok. Right after we engaged, our white mage disconnected, leaving me the only healer and causing a full wipe :( At that point we only had 15 minutes or so left so we just had to call it, which was very dissapointing. Wednesday, we found a few new members, and Star and Seite pushed for another Bhaf. fl4/boss farm to get revenge since Tuesday went so poorly. No fl4 rampart again, got a freak link. The boss went well though, netting us the exact same drops as last time, aka: no Morrigan 25 body for me! Both pieces were wanted though, so that was nice.
Our new members on Wedsnesday was a bit rough; apparently they have a history with a few other people in our group and it wasn’t exactly the nicest welcome. It was quite tense at the start, but as we got in the swing of things it went much smoother. People were just really snippy at the start, particularly the new people, but by the end we were joking and teasing, so I think it’ll work out well :) Fingers crossed!
Anyways, no screenshots tonight, and no dynamis rant (though oh boy would I have a good one, Star and I nearly left the shell and still may, depending on how it goes~.), because that’s unpleasent and I’d rather not discuss it just now! Maybe I’ll go through and find some once ones tomorrow, but as for now, I think it’s time for bed! Until next time~
