Beastmasters and Chocobos

A friend of mine -- a lolDRK. I'm a member of two green shells, but they are very differently green. TheFlock is darker, and RebelsandMisfits is lightlightlight. So I guess he has a darker one like TheFlocks -- but he thought it was the same one he has (which wouldn't be that big of a surprise).

TheFlock took out Bune yet again this morning. I couldn't stay around to see if the sword dropped again.

I am really new to the shell, but I can see that they are a really good group and mostly friendly. Tomorrow night they're doing Genbu all BST style, and have the items to pop him twice. I don't know if they're going to pop him twice due to how late their starting, but I wish them the best of luck!

I'd go if I could but I don't have sky, and my BST isn't high enough so I'd have to WHM it. And that would pretty much be terrifying. If I pulled hate away from the pets I'd probably die. Not probably... I would. Even still, I do kinda wish I could just go up there at least to take pictures to record it.

The funny thing is that I've never really been all that excited about sky -- and I certainly never want to do it as WHM. Don't get me wrong, I love my WHM, and I have every intention of pimping it out... eventually. But I've certainly heard more than one (horror) story about how white mages get treated in sky -- and I certainly wouldn't tolerate most of that stuff.

I dinged 46 this morning in about an hour and a half. 5k exp in less than two hours hell yes. And it was a lot of fun, too. I was able to get continuous chain 4's off the gobbies. Probably could have gone farther but only 4 gobs spawn and it's a 30 second-1 minute wait most of the time until the first one repops after I kill the last one. Or a really long run to the 5th. Or the stupid chain 5 gobbie wouldn't blow himself up (it happened..twice that I can remember). However I had really good luck today, only came near death once (was left with 4HP when my pet got hate), and mischarms weren't frequent.

I took some pictures of my chocobo chick, FieryAutumn. He's 12 days old... He was sick, but for some reason I thought that it made him look cuter.

I fed him one of those tokopekko or whatever greens then a couple of san d'Orian carrots. Then I made him go one a couple walks then I watched over him a few times. All his skills are still poor but he likes me. It's really just a few more days until he grows up anyway (at 19, I think). I really can't wait until then.

I got started raising mine kind of late due to having to move back into the dorms, but I think that's okay. Everyone else is about a month ahead of me and are reporting their results -- now I don't have to experiment. (Even though I have been.. I'm not one to trust other people's information).
