wow.. been way too long since i've posted here. Let's try to recap...

I recently lost a sackholder. While I understand his decision, I'm still sad he chose to leave. He was a good co-leader

Sea started good, but for some reason we keep lacking some motivation and members. We were able to do Jailer of Love on tuesday but on Friday we came close to wiping.

Sky's going awsome this week. Farming was incredible and we had two of everything yesterday. We have two Kirins today, we'll see how it goes

Seriously....

I often wonder why I even put up with being a linkshell leader. People that are supposed to support me give up and go elsewhere, members do nothing but complain, my decisions are questioned. Sure there's always a few thanking me, telling me I'm doing a good job and all but in the end, it doesn't outbalance it.

This comic strip clearly represents what it is to lead an endgame linkshell. I admit at first back in the days when I was only just a member, I did complain a lot to the sackholders, even made a nasty post because I feel I wasn't being supported by them. Somehow I feel this is different... We work hard to push the members to accomplish more and they just.... resist.

Anyhow, I think I'm not ready to give up on AA yet. I see good potential in many members. I might open up sackholder position soon.

To be continued....

After about a year after I hit Sam50 (and Kairo ninlotting it on me), I finally obtained my Soboro Sukehiro



It was a long and exhausting run but most of us got ours. We will go back there Thursday for the two people that didn't get theirs

The first pt I got after deciding to finally level ninja was extremely good and it made me believe in low level parties again. But last night after Limbus I switched to my ninja hoping to get a few levels before going to bed. I would have wanted to be as close to 50 as possible so I could be on NIN for the Soboro run. I get this invite from a MNK, get to jeuno to realize we're mage-less. After about 20 mins we get this RDM and the leader sends us to Crawler's Nest.

To all of you NINs out there, I'm sure you know what it means to tank crawlers with no access to Haste or Erase. My NI recast was at 1:05, debuffs were at around :50 and the elemental wheel was at 1min recast. On top of that, the stupid MNK would counterstance every 5 mins and would land a fully boosted Chi Blast right after the pull. Long story short, the party sucked real bad. I somehow managed to get to NIN46, and right after that they aggroed a Water Elemental and 2 IT Crawlers.


Long Live Mijin Gakure

After many months in waiting of never seeing it drop, I finally obtained my Mnk relic body, the Melee Cyclas



It was a pretty good run overall, managed to get the flag for those that needed it and lots of farming.
