Morning guys and gals. Been busy last few days with some personal stuff (best friend's father passed away this weekend) and hunting Charby which Foulei mentioned. Here are some images of that hellish hunt.
After two agonizing years of hunting Charby down I finally got the Joyeuse, as did Foulei and Zidaneii. It was touch and go at first but we pulled it off.
1st attempt (not from two years when i started hunting this ***) and for Foulei's sword first. Fou and Zid wanted to try a thf/rdm/pld combination. Though I took steps on the defense with food and items it wasn't enough since this *** hits hard and constantly. Unless you have well over 290 evasion you're screwed. It was worth a try nonetheless.
2nd attempt; sucess. Luckily nobody was hunting this thing except us so I had time to go switch to thief to help zid duo this thing while Foulei worked his RDM pimp magic. I really enjoy duoing with another thief because is so much fun bouncing hate back and forth :-P In the end Foulei got his sword :)
(Warning: kinda storta not work or childeren safe)
Yes, I gave Charby the middle finger. Between the cuthroat competition, the frustrations of getting TOD, help, and getting beaten by Charby when it was claimed, it deserved my "universal gesture" after two years of our friendship together lol
Though I couldn't get a shot of the folks who helped us; the jobs we had were Foulei on rdm, another rdm, Ekmet, Kalyna a WHM/SCH I befriended recently, I meleed it on thf/nin. Needless to say we made short work of charby though thanks goes to these three who did the most awesome mage co-op I haven't seen in a very very long time :) Thanks guys and gals for the help!
