Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I've been working a stupid amount of hours lately so haven't exactly been on much in the past month. I finally get a chance to log in and find almost everyone has deserted my ls and I have no POL messages.

I feel so unloved I'd even settle for a PM from Feba.

Hunting rams, because there are only two in the zone and wiki is crap for pinpointing them.

Super easy for WHM75/RNG (preferably 20+)

Teleport to the other zone when you've found (or not found) both rams in a zone, and by the time you get back they'll be back up. This is awesome when you have no competition.

Bonuses: You quickly learn the ranges of the rams, though you still get surprised by how far they can get sometimes. And you can track down air and thunder elementals for clusters.

Biggest Pet Peeve is....

Just getting invited to a party, using food and an exp ring and after 5 min someone has to go and no reps are available so they disband the party. Usually I don't get invited right away and have wasted food and an exp charge when that happens.

A pet peeve for today, me and my buddy have been camping and killing Serket all week, this bitch shows up earlier than I did so gets invited to PT since Darkakumaa isn't sure he can solo Serket. After we kick its ass (she sucked as RDM, no poisonas, no refresh, kept getting hit by AoEs) and if the ring drops, we usually split the gil, this bitch proceeds to lot on the ring. Now I didnt mind so much, it irked me a little, but not enough for me to give her shit. I make it known to her that me and my friend usually split the gil, and instead of offering at least some money for the ring and our efforts, no she doesnt. Ok cool, no biggy, my buddy didnt care too much, so figured i wouldnt either. Then she goes and does this:



Seriously, what a bitch. I told her I was fine with it and she proceeds to say she coulda gotten people to CC us instead? If you really did, where the fuck were they? Retard I swear.

Aw man that's a crock. They should've split the gil cuz that woulda been the fairest thing to do. You want to reward everyone for their performance, not penalize it. There's enough "waiting to lot on uber item" in the game already that you don't need to do that shyt on a basic NM camp. lol

You're friend is nice tho; maybe too nice. I hope that RDM takes the ring and shoves it up her beeeep <we now return to your regularly scheduled programing>

/end

Though, that reminds me. One time I went to camp Jelly Ring on my 75RDM back when I remade my 2nd character. I coulda solo'ed it now, but back then I was a newb RDM. Anyway, I had been killing the spawn and got him to pop. The place was dead. So I went to tackle him and lost miserably. I reraise. I explain to the few ppl in my LS at the time that I needed some help with Sewer Syurp and no one responded. Then when I mentioned I'd pay 50k for help, I got one guy to respond. Some WAR75 dude.

I explained in full detail exactly what the conditions were. I'd pay him 50k up front when he got there, all he had to do was provide some DD support. He said sure.

He gets down there, we do our thang, bam it dies. He then proceeds to lot on the ring. I ask him why he is lotting when I've already paid him and IN ADVANCE and he says it would be fair that we both share in lotting since we both did the work to get the ring. Well, I got pissed and lotted and won. I proceeded to gripe him out after and explain that as a LS mate, you can't sit there and do your mates that way when you've got a situation set up and he gets pissy and says I shouldn't be asking people for help and expecting them not to lot. So I pretty much told him to go DIAF and we never talk again.

Later, I heard that the LS had a problem with him lotting items in SKY as well and he was subsequently booted from the LS.

So the moral of the story is, level up a 2nd character and PL yourself thru EVERYTHING instead of relying on the general public. w

Serket ring is really not worth that much drama. XD I used it as an idle piece only, when curing I would switch to MND.

To be honest, i dont care about the ring or the gil, its the fact that AFTERWARDS she decides to go off on me saying should could have brought people to CC us (CC means counter-camp). /sigh she's pissed us both off now, she's gonna need an extreme amount of luck to claim this sucker from here on out.

Both me and my buddy Darkakumaa have been splitting the gil since we started camping Serket last monday (4 drops so far) so i figured that would be the case this time. Oh well, she's earned a spot on my black book of death.

Give her hell! You have my blessing anyway. lol

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Well that's what I'm saying. For all that stupid drama, the ring is not worth it. Overrated. Not trying to berate you, but the idiot who got all pissed at you over nothing.

For a book dubbed such a bad ass name, I'd be disappointed if the book didn't really bring bad look and misfortune upon a pathetic soul for all eternity if their name is written in it.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

A book with that name probably should have been given to you by a shinigami...

Actually it sounds more like something you hand off to a hitman.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I would have told her to counter camp all she wanted. I would outclaim her.
