Welcome!!

Welcome to my ffxi blog. Hope you enjoy your stay. I try and post at least once a month, sometimes more. I blog mainly about what I been up to and what my goals are in game. It's a nice way to keep me on track and show how I have progressed.

Dynamis Xarcabard

So Dynamis Xarcabard was last night. I’ll go ahead and end the suspense by saying my hat once again didn’t drop. The anticipation of it happening is mind numbing. I mean I have gotten myself into a high point position in a very good Dynamis shell that does Xarcabard a ton. I know one day it will drop and that I’ll get it. It’s still hard though not to feel utterly sick every time we kill Duke Berith and no AF drops. Especially since I may have to wait for a second drop as I could lose the lot against the one other person who is high enough in points to lot against me.

Enough about my woes. We were originally going to go for the win but we had several people missing yesterday so are going to try for the win Saturday instead. At least it is another chance at the Chapeau. We got 5 AF total which is really nice for a Xarcabard run. I think we got SAM, BLM, RNG, WAR and I can’t remember the other one. On a side note Zeitsev finally lost a free lot item. He had won I think the first 4 he had lotted on.

The encouraging thing to see was the BLM drop. Not so long ago BLM AF pieces were even harder to come by than RDM. But for the last month we have seen 4 BLM hats drop. That’s 4 of the best pieces that BLM can get. It’s been unreal to see one drop a week. So hopefully the tide will turn like this for RDM pieces. We currently have 8 people lotting the RDM hat so it could take several years for some of these people to see one at our current rate of 1 in 6 months I think. At least I’m on the first lot and have no worse then to wait 2 drops.

So any ways like I said 5 AF drops no 100 pieces but all in all a very clean run. I only died twice and remember I pull so for those that say you need shadows and pulling is for thf and nin only…

I can’t wait till Saturday to go at it again and not to mention my COP group is doing the Tenzen fight so maybe I’ll even have Sea access.
