I don't think I had a minute of downtime today, and it was all good stuff! 7 BCs, 2 (or 6?) NMs, and a bunch of other stuff!

We started out by doing a repeat of last Sunday: 7 runs of the KS30 BC: Copycat. (One of your party members is charmed at all times, and will attack the other party members. Boss will use the 2 hour of one party member.) Unlike last week, we won all 7 runs! Yay! Mega $$$ drops, too. o.O

( The loot! Seven small screenshots behind the cut. )

Unfortunately I died more than last week (three times, once with a R2 (from hairpin) and twice with R3). I'm going to need to XP on DRK soon, I don't want to lose 74. :/

I have no idea what was up with hate this week. Every single time Sylf was charmed, he came after me! (Or so it seemed, sometimes Zub hit me, but mostly it was Sylf.) I wouldn't have minded if Beanie had killed me -- she's a MNK and they hit hard and fast! This was just embarrassing though:

A BLM killed me, using a staff. Will it ever be safe for me to hit on Sylf again? ; ;

The boss's use of 2 hours was semi-annoying, too. He Bene'ed once (recovering nearly 10K HP *cry*), but at least twice he used Chainspell, which was so very painful. A bunch of AM and -ga IIIs in a row, with only two of us able to stun? Bah. For the first time he used my 2 hour, which didn't seem to cause much trouble. (And once he got me charmed while I was using my 2 hour, so I got to both hurt and drain Zub~. Hee.)

After that Ead and Yun let me join them for the next quest in the opo-opo crown series (I think?). We all had that smell from tagging three plants, so we had to go kill Jammer Leeches (do those count as real NMs? They checked as Impossible, but there were a bunch of them.) and then bathe together. Ha ha ha, you didn't have to drag me along to take a bath with Ead and Yun~!

The three of us together in the water.

Yun finished first (so inconsiderate!), so Ead and I sat together in the water for a while, allowing for this sweet shot. Aww!

Once we were done there, I ran off to Promy-Mea to get a new tactic pearl thingie. Heh heh, I only killed two mobs, because a party was also headed in the same direction, so I just followed them and let them do the work. Yeah, I got less XP that way, but it was worth it -- I had forgotten to set Gunnar to shield (and I was RDM) so fights were hard and dangerous.

I had intended to use all the charges up tonight XPing Gunnar, but I only got to use one before other things called me. But he hit 45! Woo!

Isn't this beautiful? The river where I XP my NPC. It's so nice spending time there. :)

Check out the sky as we fought! It had been storming, so it went from lightning to that. So pretty, I love that zone.

Yossy needed a test (poor guy has to fight Maat as RDM), so we went and did that next. On the way, we killed a NM! Bisque-Heeled Sunberry! He was easy to kill, other than at one point I was taking screenshots instead of watching the battle and he throat stabbed me! o.O Nine-tenths of my HP gone in one move.

Because Yossy refused to rub my TH to warm it up, it took us a while to get him a test, but eventually one dropped! And we had lots of fun until it did! :)

At some point of the day I was on the airship and came across a couple of people with very fitting names. Hee.

Hmm, I wonder if I missed anything? It was such a jam-packed and fun day!
