Teh Weekend of Awesomes

It was a pretty good weekend. Probably one of the best I had this Summer. Mainly for two reasons, Batman and Odin. The Dark Knight was infuckingcredible I can’t say enough. If you haven’t seen it go see it now. Stop reading, and go see it. I’m serious, stop reading and go see it. In IMAX if you can help it. Batman was so grim, so dark, so perfect. It was mixed with so much emotion and executed better than any movie superhero or otherwise that I’ve seen in probably ten years. It’s that good. Now stop reading and go see it.

Odin, was awesome. I actually went SMN if you can believe that. I haven’t brought SMN to anything in years but it was well placed in the DD setup of our fight. Odin was surprisingly easy, in a disappointing kind of way. We really obliterated it having about 7 minutes left over. E body dropped (yey) but my randoms blow so I lost the opportunity to assign that drop to somebody in my LS.

Overall a killer weekend. I finished it up making an unscheduled appearance on Pet Food Alpha to talk about various things, though I hope to go back on eventually to give my two cents about things we didn’t get to talk about. Oh well…oh btw got a Tiamat too on Sunday before Odin, too bad it dropped nothing awesome.

Odin?

Yeah...Odin. My Einherjar LS, Valgrind, should (hopefully) be fighting this asshole in the coming week. That's next Sunday. We actually managed to beat the chamber we could never win in Foodmonsters, that being Gerhilde's Chamber so we are ONE win away from being able to fight Odin. I've read quite a bit about what to expect and it would seem that especially on the melee's part that they need meds of all kinds including poison pots, holy waters, icarus wings, and possibly remedies. BLMs supposedly have cruddy damage on it so we'll opt to bring Summoners and regular ole' melee to get the job done. He has 100k HP, and we have 30 minutes to complete that mission. I want him dead in less than that. I am very proud of the fact we have come so far in Einherjar and hopefully we'll be one of the first on our server to down him. We just need open ears and people willing to work as a team to be there ready to have some fun.

Sunday...was a Good Day

Well, I finally got Altruistic Cape. Finally. Ix'DRK is easily one of the worst NMs in Sea, he just keeps going and going...and yesterday was no exception. Fourteen fucking reraises and it dropped Vice when I was trying to get our Einherjar run setup, so I was hardly paying any attention to the fact that it dropped!

Einherjar went incredibly well. I couldn't be more pleased that I had helped lead us to victory and set everything up to make it happen. I'm more pleased about the win than getting my cape...

I have a little less than 5k IS to go to ungimp my NIN by getting Perdu Blade. I can hardly wait. Hopefully I'll be seeing that this week.

Tonight is my LS's first Dynamis, we're going to do Bastok, hopefully getting the win so one of our members can finally experience the freezing chill of ice. More to come this week!
