Sue me D:
Went and finished off ToAU44-47 yesterday, the last few cutscenes are epic as hell and well worth the dragging storyline till about... mission 30ish.
Wait.
Oh yeah. I BEAT TOAU :D Ulthalam's Ring, which is my new replacement for one of my Woodsman Rings on SAM; Glory Crown, which... just looks awesome; and an Imperial Standard flag I already put up in my Mog House. All of those (Found it!)
Thanks to Maxion and Associate for dealing with the pretty (really fucking) sloppy group we had and working their asses off during the final 5-stage fight to make sure I got it done :D

Meh...
OK, so... now I remember why I hate living with my parents.
Got to ToAU43 yesterday, after an epic win on the Soulflayer (last) form of mission 42. Everybody except Obaa died from some stupid AoE spell that raped us from near 100% to DEAD. Thankfully, the tank and I both had reraise up, and Amnaf (the squid-bitch) was at *maybe* 8% HP remaining. So, I RR up, cure myself so I'm not bleeding profusely and then Chainspell nuke the bitch, thinking I'd win.
Thunder 3: 0 dmg
Blizzard 3: 0 dmg
Fire 3: 0 dmg
What the fuck? Oh. Soulflayers have a Magic Shield-like effect that acts more like Stoneskin. Fuck. Well, that barrage got me hate, so I run around like a little ninny, and I see Amnaf's health going down, but no one's hitting her in our party. I then see this little feline blur behind her and realize "Oh yeah, Naja's helping." If you haven't done this BC before, Naja Salaheem, your mercenary boss in Aht Urhgan decides to assist you. For a price, of course, but still, help is help. But... she's fucking useless for the first two thirds of the fight, she has a tendency to attack things blindly, and she only has about 1000 HP. The mobs can HIT NORMALLY for 200+ dmg. Yeah.
Anyways, kiting it around, watching Amnaf's and Naja's health both (Amnaf had Ice Spikes on...) and finally I just STOP moving. I'm freaking out like OMFG WE LOST!? D: My target was on Amnaf at the time... 0%. Dead. Naja alone took the bitch from 8% to dead. EPIC WIN.
After that, our group decides to stay together to finish off the final fight for ToAU, but... we had some problems deciding what to go as for this 45 minute BC. Our setup for 42 was DRG, SAMx2, RDM, BLM, PLD. The PLD and one of the SAMs (Asso ^_^) decided to switch places, since the current PLD wasn't comfortable with tanking the final boss. Fine. We then realized that the first enemy we faced could eventually become immune to either melee or magic damage, depending what we kill him with. Fuck D:
One BLM + One RDM (me, with WHM sub) is normally not enough to ensure this bastard dies. I bring this up to the leader of the group (who shall remain nameless) who then says "We'll be fine lol"
Now, by this point I had already blown 50k on meds for this, failure due to time-out is not really an option for me.
Insert parents here. "Shaaaaaaaaawn we're going to pick up dinner."
FUCK!
So now, I'm stuck either waiting till after dinner or we go in now and pray to whatever God there is that they'll let me eat downstairs. Wait. What's this? Why am I suddenly solo? Why is the leader still in Whitegate, shouting for a replac....
D:!
Yeah, I got booted because my fucking parents don't know how to listen when I say "I'm gonna be busy for about an hour or so."
So, I go eat, in a really shitty mood to begin with. I get back to my computer, put my linkpearl back on and I see this about 15 minutes later:
Associate >> Congratulations you guys ^^
Leader >> OMFG THANK U SO MUCH FOR UR HELP LOL
Me >> You're very fucking welcome.
/unequip LS
They won. Now, with my luck, I'll be waiting another 3 months for a decent enough group to get together to beat this with me.
Fuck my life.

Missions, Gifts, and the Power of Persuasion
I like getting gifts. I think everyone does.
Hagun, Flame Ring (Found it!) for FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE (Thanks Max and Associate :D)
Anyways... been doing a lot of missions, finally got off my arse and started Nyzul climbing, now on floor 6. Still need to dig out a Windslicer, Vorpal Sword and maybe a Radiant Lance though D: Got from ToAU 21 "Shield of Diplomacy" to ToAU 32 within the past couple days, too. Fun stuff.
Xeno, Asso, Kazedarkwind and I went ahead and did WoTG 7, the dragon fight in La Vaule (S) last night, finished at like... 5:15 in the fuckin' morning too.
No Dyna drama to report on (Q_Q) but apparently Maxion bitched hard enough at Seilin to convince her that letting a couple other people sponsor a run every month wouldn't be such a bad thing. So.... Emoneaone (big Galka PLD going for Aegis) and myself are now allowed to sponsor one run every other month. As in, he sponsored our latest Windy run, I'm probably going to end up doing Sandy sometime in September. :D She can be taught, apparently!

Greed! And regearing jobs.
So yeah, that retiring SAM thing? Yeah. Didn't last long. Almost regeared to its former glory(?), and my wallet is weeping. Very, very loudly. First it was under the pretense of getting the higher level shite for DRG, which I am now planning on being my next 75 (after SCH)... Then I realized what I'm buying.
Woodsman Rings.
Amemet +1.
Chivalrous Chain.
Fuck.
So... about a mil later, my SAM's nearly regeared, including a new addition. A Rindomaru with the following augments: Store TP +12, WS Damage +3% and Add'l Effect: Disease (lol?) Yeah. Still gonna keep my Onimaru, but that actually frees me from using the Hachiman gear completely. Yeah, that's right, I have enough Store TP on that Great Katana to do away with all other STP gear. Hi2u Kirin's Osode, Dusk Gloves and less LOL feet.
Anyways. Greed.
After the mil I spent on SAM/DRG gear, I'm realizing that I need a better way to make money. I know a great way to make money, given I have at least 500k on me at all times. The problem? Seilin, my Dynamis leader, is a stingy cunt and won't let anyone sponsor a run. She says she's been waiting long enough for a relic, and if I were to sponsor, I'd be giving up at least half of the currency I win per run.
Fuck.
That.
Shit.
I need gilz! But greedy bitches who've only been playing half a year won't be patient and help their officers out!
Fucking cunt. Remind me to kick her in her "pink taco" if I ever meet her in real life.
