Okies, so I want to comment on this

I would say that if the Minotaur Mission was the objective it went rather well - folks got their Minotaur and even got the cut-scene in the Library =^_^=

Pick It

Submitted by raprot on Sat, 01/07/2006 - 02:13.

I'm more than willing to head out with you guys tomorrow and pick the lock. It would be nice to know what time, though, that you want me out there. Other than tonight's key run I have no idea when you guys are getting together. I'll get on tonight and again tomorrow afternoon to check in and see how things are developing.

This time don't let me leave Jeuno without my damn Melon Pies and Engineers gloves. Stupid, smelly, smirky pies.

mAdBoY below says no earlier

mAdBoY below says no earlier than 8PM Eastern for Farming so I figure the same logic applies for the run. I am planning on showing up at 6:30PM Eastern, that is 3:30PM on the West Coast.

Time?

If the event is taking place, what time is it happening?

So is this happening this weekend?

So is this happening this weekend?

If so I would like to get Fomor Hate down this Wednesday (today) evening. Or if we can get a group of EIGHT into the Aqueducts to farm for a key tonight that would be good also(you don't need to get hate down if you decide in advance to attack every Fomor in sight).

Yes it is

I apologize for not updating this. I spent a good bit of the weekend trying to round up people to go farm and never found anyone who seemed the least bit interested. Wasn't sure if we'd be able to round up enough people to farm before trying this, so I forgot to update the site. So we'll try this again:

Tonight = Farming for 2-3 run on Saturday.
Start time = No earlier than 8pm (EST) I'd imagine. This will allow everyone time to get home from work/school and be online. Anyone on the East Coast who arrives early and would like to begin is more than welcome to.

Meet: I'll let Maior answer this one - I'm assuming he would use the entrance from Delkfutt's Tower, but maybe not.

Tomorrow's run - I'm pretty flexible on start times. Saturdays are my most flexible time to sit down and spend some good time playing. I'm guessing this will be a late afternoon / early evening start time. If you have a preference please post it TODAY.

Key run

Submitted by sam on Fri, 01/06/2006 - 14:10.

We did have a key run here, but we never actually got the drop.

As to where to meet, generally we've met both in Jeuno and Tavnazian Safehold. This has been problematic in the past, we probably should pick one or the other in the future.

Ok Jeuno it is

Submitted by mAdBoY on Fri, 01/06/2006 - 14:25.

We will meet in Port Jeuno (at entrance to Quifim)and travel together to Delkfutt's portal. This should help anyone who hasn't been to Tavnazian Safehold before keep from running into any unexpected aggro/death.

Sorry...

Submitted by cyclonus on Fri, 01/06/2006 - 15:13.

I would really love to help. However, I won't be online until 11:00PM EST at the earliest.

I will help tomorrow with the actual run though.

It is

Submitted by sam on Wed, 01/04/2006 - 15:03.

I say it is happening. Even if Val has complications that come up, I'd be willing to head one up if we have enough folks.

If not, then at least we can go farm some keys and things.

No Key, yet

Submitted by Tamara on Tue, 01/03/2006 - 06:28.

I know of no Aqueduct Key in the Clan as of this Tuesday morning. We were getting by with Meretrix, whom I have not seen online in some time.

Regarding the Even-Mondays CoP Event...
It went well, but not as well as hoped for. We will continue farming Phomiuna Aqueducts next Monday (Jan 9th). For the Jan 9th Event please meet inside of the Tavnazian Safehold at 9PM EASTERN.

We do try to run by some Fomor, so work to get your Fomor Hate back down before then.

=^_^=

For the key, there was some confusion last night what actually dropped it. Some thought only Fomors, some thought only Stegos, some thought both.

Well, from searching around the web, it seems that only Fomors drop the key (as I had suspected):

Between all the sites I could find, it seems that all the Fomors drop the keys (but the bastards drop them very rarely apparently).

Also, we do have more than one THF in the group. Meretrix is arguably the most well known (career THF :-), but we have several others. Mynx is a great THF (among other jobs :-) as is RavenclawX.

WHM/BLM

Submitted by Meredi on Sun, 01/01/2006 - 16:15.

I wanna participate too^^....WHM or BLM (37)

WHM/BLM

Submitted by Malkier on Fri, 12/30/2005 - 02:41.

I might be able to bring WHM to this event, I'll have to check my work schedual, due to it just being posted today. I am willing to help with the 2-3 if I am needed. The Boss of 2-3 was a piece of cake, I didn't have to cure many ppl at all, unless Tamara and the others got some that I missed.

Time

Submitted by Malkier on Sat, 01/07/2006 - 07:12.

Sorry for not posting this sooner, but I've had some problems with my computer lately.

I get off work at 9:00PM EST and should be home by 9:30ish PM.

I'm in for both.

Submitted by cyclonus on Thu, 12/29/2005 - 14:45.

2-3 to help out and 2-5 cause I need it. :)

BLM or BRD. Could also go as WHM, but that is at 37.

The links

Submitted by sam on Thu, 12/29/2005 - 14:40.

For those who are wondering the links to the comments I made on 2-3 and 2-5, check these:

FWIW, I think I will be able to attend this run. I need to double check that my wife is working that Saturday, but I am pretty sure she is.

Also, I'm not so certain that 2-5 should be included along with 2-3. 2-5 requires a lot more preparation than 2-3 (it's more in line with the Promy's) and also requires full parties (the boss cannot be fought with an alliance or with an oddly sized group).

That being said, at the very least a 2-5 item collection run could be done. Dragon Scales can be farmed for, which are really some of the toughest stuff to get in preparation. Also, if people don't mind failing for educational purposes, a dry Mammet (boss) run could be done to give people an idea of what to expect. (When I say "dry run" I mean without expensive items or anything... just run in to the boss cheaply prepared and try it out to get the "feel" for it and expect to lose).

Keys or a THF

Submitted by sam on Thu, 12/29/2005 - 14:46.

One more thing I failed to mention; Our biggest stumbling block on our last 2-3 run was that we did not have a THF with lock-picking tools (until I guilted Trix into showing :-)

2-3 requires either you have a key to the aqueducts, or a THF. This means if you do not have a THF for the run, you will have to farm for keys. This will take time, and it will slow it down a lot.

If it is at all possible, I'd suggest a subligar run sometime before that where people farm for keys. This would make 2-3 and any other future 2-3 runs much smoother.

That's why I mentioned it ^_^

Submitted by mAdBoY on Fri, 12/30/2005 - 15:09.

Knowing you had made the run, I wanted to get your feedback on it. I threw 2-5 in because I know you were a little disappointed with the turn out last time, so I wanted to try and wrangle up another run. I plan on looking for an exp. party either tonight or tomorrow (Sat)and will use the rest of the weekend to help prep whatever items we will need.

So of the people who are participating in 2-3, who will be available to help farm this weekend and what day would you request? Even if we can't all hook up on the same day, having 2 seperate parties spend time farming would really help us out I believe. Let me know! ^_^
I will make myself available to farm 2-5 items as well, that way we have everything in order to set up another run.

Also, I will be updating a lot of snapshots later this afternoon so check back for those! Lots of images from clan events!
