Hello people of Quetzalcoatl. Most of you don't know me. Few have have heard of me... Fewer truly know me...
...but I want to share an accomplishment with you folks this morning that happened this weekend.
A while back a happy story happened. I got to sky. Met new friends in the floating islands amongst the gods. Pillaged and plundered their loot to get burnt out on end game and all the work it entails. I wanted my fun back. I didn't wanna get home from work just to work again. A few friends of mine felt the same way. We left our really great HNM/god LS.
We started a new LS. TheFlyingFish.
My awesome friends Stouter/Lucyilttle had the idea that we were already able to get to sky. And him on Lucylittle was at the time was on his way to Sea. So he came up with the name FlyingFish. Because a flying fish is an entity that can play and frolic both in air and in water.
A long time ago, we started up a CoP Static PT within our LS. We have two members outside of LS that join us in our unravelling of this great story that SE has provided. Several months in the making we've gotten through chapter after chapter thanks to our commander Stouter who comes up with our strategies of dominance. Forcing us to level in our Static LS XP PT getting Damita to PLD60... To tank most of our CoP missions... Getting him to become a terrifying Taru BLM60... pounding out Elemental spells to turn hate away from Poor Damita... and me... da ebil kitty to BLM60 as well... toying with my prey along side with Stouter to confuse Poor Damita... nuking hard at the same time so that Stouter gets hate... Poor Damita Covers Stouter... to have me get hate 2 seconds later...
We love you Dami!!
So... this weekend... finally after many reschedules... Friday night we went up against the horrid Ultima / Omega fight. I've heard of people spending millions of gil on this fight. At our disposal, we have 6 fine players. Several of us having several jobs now leveled. Stouter's direction brought 6 prepared players to the challenge.
Damita the Big Bootied PLD.
Hatomi the Careful Reader WHM.
Ziphor the Candid RDM.
Lavi the Quiet BLM.
Stouter the Toying BLM.
and me...
Da Ebil Kitty BLM.
Our first fight we restarted due to two untimely Disconnects. Making the final fight against Ultima unwinnable. Not to waste supplies or two hours we went out... and went back in.
This time the Mammets fell hard and fast. Omega's challenge was also overcome due to the Zombie Flare~ga PT. Granted this second time he didn't fall right away... so the Zombies came back and Blizzaga II~ga'd him to his icey grave.
And finally Ultima... who Dami enjoyed the challenge of the tank... Hatomi and Ziphor keeping Dami up on his two feet with no issues... Dami... sweat to oil... gritting teeth behind the shield... unleashing the power of invincibility to keep up the hate that the fearsome trio of the pimp (Stouter) and his two Black Kitties were about to unleash. Ultima too fell quick to the power that these 6 brought forth.
A few hours later we come to the final BCNM that hides Sea behind it. We came to the fight slightly unprepared. Thinking it was in the bag. We altered our PT to bring the main jobs that we all had.
Me on the front line going toe to toe with the Mob. Everyone behind me keeping me alive and nuking it with all their might and strength...
...to our dismay...
...it wasn't enough. And Sea was there... just outside our grasps. Disheartened we planned again... Sunday would be the day. Our feet would be damp with the salt water that spalshed at our feet as we were now once again, forced to dream of being able to see.
Sunday came. With Stouter's wisdom we again... changed our set up slightly. This time it was Hatomi and I both going head to head with the mob. But this time... with the two DD's at the head... and prepared with goodies this time... we had a big surprise waiting. Opo Opo necklaces and sleep pots and good old Icarus Wings... (lol)...
Our fight opened up with a Disco Ball above Stouter's head... and four songs played for us by our Taru Leader. Axes and Dagger now drawn... our two DD's stood at the ready... Our three mages waiting in tow... Lavi to keep Hatomi alive... and Dami and Zip to rain down elemental fury once again.
Our enemy stood not a chance. With two quick skill chains in the beginning of the fight... our enemy was already down to 50%... TP gaining fast again and Dami and Zip unrelentlessly blasting our enemy with as much Ice based spells as possible. At one point in the fight I thought maybe we had not foreseen a tiny flaw as Hat dropped in the low 100s after a huge Weapson Skill from our foe... Lavi was there tho... a quick Cure V and the issue disappeared... Our foe fell hard and fell fast...
Tho we didn't beat the best time for the week... we beat this obstacle in 5 minutes and 5 seconds. After one of the best CS's I've seen in the game yet... a new zone laid before me... Curiosity flowed through me as I wanted to fully explore this new region. We were now in Sea.
And as of sunday... I became a true FlyingFish. Able to toy with the gods of the floating islands above... and now able to play with the dolphins of the sea as they playfully follow you as you run by.
Congrats my friends and fellow CoP Static Members. Without you, I wouldn't be able to see the things that we got to see this weekend. And without you guys, I would not be able to expand my experience in Vana'diel further with what Sea has hidden in it's dark unexplored corners. And thank you, Stouter, for sticking with us and guiding us each step of the way.
I eagerlly wait to see what Chapter 8 has in store for us. Please lead us into battle once again so that we may be victorious and enjoy the spoils of battle.
Your friend always...
