I have off on Saturday. Otherwise I am very busy, stupid work.

I need at least two ki to +1 my otronif legs and feet, so I am down for some Outer Ra'Kaznar skirmish runs. I also want to kill Ircinraq or Hyoscya, so I can get the semi-pure russet yggzi so I can get the +acc neck. If we do the AAEV fight on difficult the chance of the sword dropping is a lot higher. I know that you can tank it on normal and below. It will drop on normal, but it takes forever. I want the Bloodrain Grip, Felistris Mask, and Patricus Ring, all from AA 2.0 fights. So I am also for doing some AAEV 2.0 runs. If we all have 45 merits and the AAEV 2.0 ki, we can do 4 runs without having to remerit.

I can possibly swing some early Saturday stuff, or late Friday stuff. I'm PST, though, so...

I'd like to take at least a swipe or two at AAMR for thf hands papers and that nice +2 triple attack mask. I'd also be interested in a yorcia delve WIN because I want the club from Wopket. I have 1 T1 russet bead and would be happy to provide the other two for the club or bole.

AAMR will be hard as she spams Cloudsplitter below 25% and that can do 4.6k damage with a single hit plus she'll use it back to back to try and make Darkness. While that amount of damage was probably without any mdt or scherzo up it'll still be pretty high since I lack Aegis. Also the Yorcia Delve is Delve 2 which is even higher than ilvl 119 so that'd be a harder area to clear compared to the stuff we've been doing.

I know this says I have Saturday off, but that changed and it is now Sunday. Sorry, brosefmiahs. Is anyone available for Sunday? I am down for some Outer Ra'Kaznar skirmish runs, trying AAEV 2.0 a few times, and maybe some capacity point farming.

Probably, but I don't recommend it. Lamp floors would destroy you, and that is painful. Try to get at least 4 or 5 more people with you to get NI clears. That is if you choose not to use cupper/clipper. Movement speed is really nice for lamp floors, other than that you can get away with not having it. With bare minimum 117 sparks gear, a group of 6 pugs could do it. You just need one person manning the rune of transfer to make it go faster.

P.S. I can't read, I thought this droogy was asking to do nyzul isle without clipper. Boy, egg is all over my face.

PISH-POSH!
I dual-boxed my way from 45-100 so it's very possible. Lamp floors suck but are doable, but if you're using clipper to boost your speed then you can usually do 10 floors in a non-lamp set anyways, so getting a really nasty lamp floor probably just means you're only going to do 5 instead of 10. Multiple lamp floors that aren't just "Hit this lamp once" will probably be a wash as far as progress goes. Overall it's not as demoralizing as it used ot be though, because instead of losing your shot at 5 floors each tag, you're covering a lot more ground faster in the long run. 55 floors took me about 6 tags and I had some really nasty huge zone + enemy leader type floors I ran into a lot.

6 people would probably be able to do 15-20 if things went well and someone was able to hit the rune quickly enough.

The best way to go about this is to sell them in a bazaar them for 1 gil. Just make sure no one is in zone. I have a beastly shank on all of my mules. You might as well have those because they are just taking up inventory space.

I would do that so much, if I played cor. I think you can make gearswap lock certain item slots. I know you could do that with spellcast.

I think the shank is a 100% drop from the KS99. So you have two options for shanks, login points or 99ks. I have at least 3 shanks on my mules, possibly 4. Let me know if you want to use those.

I just returned within the past month, and I'm wondering if there's a non-abyssea way to level from 60+ to 99 with some sort of reasonable speed. I did Kuftal Tunnel pages from 60~ to 99 on my first job, and I really don't want to repeat that. I tried Colibri and Fomors earlier today, but without FOV/GOV bonuses, it's quite a slog. Is there some alternative I'm not aware of?

Do the bat GoV page in bostuanieux oubliette until exp caps (Around lvl 70 iirc) then the leech page will take you to 99.

If you use a fishbot and don't have time to farm, it is worth doing. Otherwise it is good to help offset hp warp and consumables costs.

To all the dirty bastard goons who have been cuppering around without a care...
Be careful with that poo poo in instanced events like salvage and dynamis. The recent spat of bannings have been because of people literally clearing nq and hq boss, then clipping down two floors to port up and doing bosses again, farming a few thousand alex a run. Expect alexandrite to jump in price again due to the severe lack of it.

There also is/was an exploit in dynamis to reset your zone timer or loving up ADL AI involving clipping around. And there is/was an even bigger packet manipulation exploit to generate any item you could think of... like marrows/scoria (i originally thought this to be a duplication exploit).

So needless to say, expect currency and the like to jump a bit.
