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 Jeuno 1/9/2007

Another city zone yesterday. We knocked out Dynamis Jeuno for the new people so a step closer to going after the kill on Dynamis lord. Was another easy run up until the Mega Boss. HPG died a little too fast on his sac pull and when the guy pulling the Boss back to the AH voked it, he immediately got Death cast on him. Too much lag and too close to out run the spell he died and since HPG was dead everything linked and well.. yea.

So a quick regroup pulled it again without incident and we were left with 2 hours to farm after the mega boss. I mean really the cities are so pathetically easy to beat I don’t see how shells ever lose to them.

Farming Jeuno is always a suck experience. Each statue pops like 6-8 mobs after you kill the mega boss and most are close enough to at least one more statue so you end up with these mass linking pulls that take forever to handle. Blah, always a lot of xp loss for me there as puller. Oh well its still better than being someone’s refresh whore in a zone so laggy you can hardly keep an adequate rotation going.

Lots of AF dropped as is pretty much the custom in city zones. I don’t have the final count yet but I know I saw at least 4 whm AF pieces drop. No rdm Af dropped so I didn’t get another piece but wouldn’t have anyways if just one dropped. Kogashi finally got fed up waiting on his hat and was main lotting RDM. So since he has a lot more points than me I would have had to wait. Would have been nice to have the plus 10 Elemental skill as I have been thinking pretty hard about doing some limbus solo and will need all the nuking gear I can get. I’ll just have to wait, probably wont do Jeuno again for 2 months since we rarely do cities.

Dynamis Bastok is up next. I’ll probably still just keep to free lotting the RDM Gloves and maintaing my points for when the body drops in northlands.

Since this is a rather small post (for me anyways) I figure I would update that AF drop table I had done in an earlier post. Here it is.

Job Hands Body Legs Feet Head Total  % of Drops
WHM 3 5 1 6 4 19 10.2%
PLD 5 2 1 2 3 13 7.0%
NIN 2 2 5 3 1 13 7.0%
WAR 4 5 4 5 1 19 10.2%
THF 4 3 4 3 14 7.5%
BST 2 4 2 5 2 16 8.6%
MNK 5 6 1 3 15 8.1%
BLM 3 3 3 9 4.8%
BRD 3 6 4 13 7.0%
DRG 2 3 2 2 2 11 5.9%
SAM 2 2 4 8 4.3%
RNG 1 3 2 3 2 11 5.9%
DRK 1 4 1 4 10 5.4%
SMN 1 3 2 1 1 9 4.8%
RDM 1 1 3 2 7 3.8%
Total 34 29 40 44 39 186 100.0%


So Whm and War continue to lead the way (and i havent even added in yesterday's run where 4 whm dropped) even though people in the LS all like to say bst and drg are the most common. Bst is up there yes but drg is hardly al that common for us. It's just no one wants it when it does drop.

Glancing at the table you can see we have gotten full sets of drops on 8 of 15 jobs. Much better than last time I posted. RDM drops still lagging behind in last place but at least it's getting better.
