A Perfect Night to be at Sea! Apollyon NE, The Ashu Talif

The SR Limbus Brigade was back to its regular level of attendance this week. But that didn't stop us from walking all over Apollyon NE!
Attendance: Gruive (BLU), Davina (RDM), Lunakitty (BLM), Lenor (NIN), Marzanna (WHM), Ronin (BRD), Jojax (MNK), Dutrance (THF).

We've attempted this area before for farming purposes and got as far as the top floor before being eaten by a herd of cows. With only two wins away from a date with Proto-Omega, we decided to take a chance and try for the win by targetting only Portal Trigger NMs.
Wary of how much time we spent on each floor, our main objective was to only open the portals and farm at the last floor. We skipped the Item Chest NMs on the first and third floor but got lucky with the drop on the second floor. In the end, we had enough time to play with the Item Chest NM on the fourth floor and slaughter every single cow (Dhamel) on the last floor for more Ancient Beastcoins.

Loot Report: Despite going on for the win, we managed to net 50 Ancient Beastcoins! Everyone who attended got 6 coins each, leaving 2 for the pot for a total of 7 for next week's run. DRK AF+1 item was tossed. Congratulations to Davina for SMN AF+1 item and Marzanna for getting THF AF+1 item (LAWLZ!).
Casualty Report:Lenor (1) - one shotted by Mr. Ugly up there.

But wait, there's more!

We finally managed to pass Scouting the Ashu Talif quest. We got really pressed for time towards the end, but we made it! Bring on Ashu Talif #2! Q(''Q)

Casualty Report Ashu Talif: Lunakitty (1) - apparently crew members don't like being Thundaga III -ed

Saturday Limbus Report, Apollyon SW

SR LS was in full force for Limbus this week. Which was pretty rare indeed o_o

Unfortunately, it seemed that a lot of groups wanted to do Limbus as well so after jumping from Apollyon NE to Apollyon NW, we finally decided on Apollyon SW because some JP group decided to jump ahead of us.
Attendants: Marzanna (NIN), Gruive(BLU), Barefoot(NIN), Lunakitty (BLM), Drargen (RDM), Igneusnex (DRG), Dutrance (THF), Lenor (NIN), Solonuke (DRK), Davina (RDM), Vashanti (WHM), Ronin (BRD), Jojax (MNK).

We wanted to go for the win and because you could only one chest on certain floors, we didn't get much in the way of ancient beastcoins and AF+1 loot.

Actually, the most annoying thing about these Jidra is that they dispelga your Reraise status along with other buffs. They didn't give us too much trouble.

To ensure victory, we opted to pick up Time Chests on the first two floors. We farmed Mimics on the third floor until we got the Item Chest and a Time Chest. Then with the remaining time, we killed the elementals required for the Item Chest on the last floor and farmed the rest for ancient beastcoins until our time in the area was about to run out.
Loot Report: 3 ancient beastcoins for everyone, 5 remaining in the pot for the next run. Congratulations on Jojax for getting the RDM AF+1 item. Enjoy your sexy hat +1.

Deathga Report:
Happened on a Ghost Ship in the high seas -_-;
Scouting the Ashu Talif @ 0/2. Better luck next week... ;~;

Saturday Limbus Report: Apollyon SE

Well, another weekend, another Limbus round. Luna is finally back (somewhat) after running away for holidays! Yay!

Unfortunately, a lot of people were not available because of RL or other LS commitments, so with the group of 9 people we managed to gather together, we farmed for beastcoins in Apolloyn SE..

Member Roll: Lenor (NIN), Marzanna (WHM), Solonuke (DRK), Jojax (MNK), Haplo (RNG), Vashanti (RDM), Ronin (THF), Lunakitty (BLM), Zaeon (DRK).

The CoP-baby Zaeon wanted to come along for the ride to see what all the fuss was about, so we dragged him along for the ride. You should be so lucky, other LSes wouldn't have gone to all the trouble! :0
As usual, the third floor took up most of the time but thanks to our strong melee backbone, we were able to decimate all the weapons on the last floor before time was up. And as usual, we got the AF drops that nobody wanted :p

Loot Report: 45 Ancient Beastcoins - 5 per person. Zaeon declined the coins, so the remaining 5 will be pooled for next week's session. AF +1 Materials - SMN (toss), PLD (toss), DRK (went to Solonuke - Congratuations!), WHM x2 (toss - lol).

Congratulations is also in order for Vash for getting the Loquacious Earring from last week, Jojax for getting a Brutual

Death Report: Solonuke and Zaeon - Fluid Spread is a beetch...


If you want to talk Deathga, let's talk Scouting the Ashu Talif!

After passing a couple more people through The Black Coffin missions, we thought it was time to try making this into a regular event, so we decided to try tacking it onto the end of the Limbus sessions.
Everything was going well until we got overwhelmed while fighting in the middle of the boat. I forgot how crazy the mobs got -_-

Sorry guys, better luck next time ; ;
