Defending Ring (lolsash)

[DeadLegend]

Those screen shots make me sad. 20+ Kings kills for me (We dont camp them 24/7 so 20+ is a decent number in my book) and 0 martial and 0 d-rings to show. Not even a drop.

Sucks, this gahbage is so random. I think we've killed less than 20 HQ(camp all day and have a strong pacific time group, but ifrit sucks) but we've been lucky enough to get 3 Koenig cuirasses, 2 E body, 2 W body, and 2 A body(1 aspi, 1 nid, both quit lol). In fact we got all 3 M Body on the first 2 nids, friggin 150% droprate for a bit lol. 0 D rings. 1 m legs on a guy who was kicked, 4 m feet, one on the kicked guy.

I couldn't tell myself if he was making a comment about how stupid Epyslon was, or trying to brag about the wasted sash on his char.

Which one is it map???

I couldn't tell myself if you were being bitter, or ignorant.

Which one is it Volken?

lol? I know the whole fucking story about you being the leader of your Sea LS etc, it doesn't change a thing. What would I be bitter about? That my nin is 37 or that a sam has a ninurta's sash? Couldn't care less about either

[Valisk]

Haven't heard of a D.ring dropping on Ifrit in a while. Only two NA have/had it on Ifrit. One being Backlash who quit recently, and the other PLD I don't remember his name. Seem to recall something about it being ninja lotted or something.

But to answer your question, it's been a few months since a ring dropped on Ifrit.

LOL, who are you? I believe a D. Ring dropped last month according to one of my LS mates. And that D. Ring you were refering to wasn't ninja lotted. Not sure where you got that info from. I did ninja quit for 3 months tho, maybe that's what you meant. I'm back tho 8)

What mob takes expertly distributed rare items to defeat? The answer, of course, is none, so it doesn't really matter who gets [insert obscenely scarce item here], it's all just a 'thank you' for your service to the LS. Might it be cooler if the game was like WoW and you need boss drops on the right people to even think about taking on the next tier of bosses? Maybe, but FFXI isn't like that, so it's a moot point.

k then shut the fuck up about him having sash.

Map likes to think he's special because he has the only speedbelt with 6 subtle blow in the game.

[Turlos.]

There is about 4 to 6 on midgard

NAs have at least 2 (one in PO one in Valor) I think there were 2 prior as well but those indivudals have long since quit.

Jps have 3-4 that I was around for, and I was at I think 3 NAs getting a D. Ring on midgard. (I still swear I remembered another one in the last year, but I'll blame that on alzheimers).

So thats 7 I was present for. I wouldnt doubt there were more JP D. Rings at times I didnt feel like waking up at 3-5am.


Edit: Fake-real has 1 too I believe, but I wiped out everything I knew about that char since its not him anymore.

idk i think this is most i guess theres a JP with one no1 knew about but ive never seen it.

Lei Micken Maris Momijii Rixyuuga
Obi Cronoh Hyjinx Sanou

hmm beru got one...not sure if he is the one who quit or not...i thought that was micken..but i haven't played for a while so i could be wrong.

Ethreal I believe was the first NA that got 1 on midgard, back in the GO days? dont think its the original Ethreal now.

Lei, Micken, Beru, Momijii, Rixuuga(sp?), Hyjinx, Ethreal, Sanou, Maris (rdm wtf) Cronoh, Obi(dunno this guy).

about 11 peeps, maybe 12.
Interesting... If an average of 1 KB pops in 5 days lets say, and server has been up for 3.5 (est, when RoZ was released) years. That makes approx 255 KBs popped since start of server, take away 4(give or take KBs for the first month of RoZ where no one could kill him)

Obi is who plays Ethereal now. Thats why people call him Obireal , Maris has alot of jobs besides RDM.

Thats fine, I like my extra 7% Haste and my extra 7 STR in exchange for one Subtle Blow.

[Awoir]

Ragnarok, I believe I have seen 2 of them. The one I know of that exists is owned by Reisu ( one of the guys on our server with all jobs at 75 ). The other one If I remember correctly is owned by a member of the mastermind linkshell. Both of these players are JP. There may be more on Ragnarok but those are the 2 that I know of.

There are more than 2. Owen has one and I know MM has at least 2.

[derzoll]

I thought the whole purpose of having a ninja tank is that he doesn't get hit?

We use a point system/job priority system, it's rather complicated but it determines pretty much who gets what loot. I rather reward those attending alot of stuff then who's job got the most use of it.

Someone here mentioned what i had in mind, which is that you don't need any of the big items to kill everything in the game. Everything beyond the 'usual' gear is just toys and nothing but toys.

Sven, Xion have it, as well as Yukisige from TrippleExcellent.

I think you fail to realize that people give Map such a hard time about the sash because it went to a SAM. That's worse than a rare MAB earring going to a WHM.

It has nothing to do with bitterness or jealousy, as some people tend to imply.

Imagine your reaction if, say, there was an LS that gave crimson finger gauntlets to DRG, D.ring to SMN, ninurta's sash to SAM, and novio earring to WHM.

Would your reaction be bitterness, or "wtf"?

I complete agree with you.

But, I could also flip the coin here. Say a WHM was raiding hardcore attending every raid possible and make good friends with everyone. Now, the LS did JoL and parchment or whatever for Novio Earring dropped. Now, let's say that the WHM didn't have a BLM job and didn't show any intention of lving it, would you let him lot it because he had the most attendance or points? Obviously, if it did go to him, it would be a waste of equip going to a a hard-earned person.

I think in the end of the day, it all comes to the lesser of two evils. Would you rather give it to a person who will make use of it or a person who busted his ass off but will make no use of it?

I was in a LS were DRGs would get w.gear before PLD and RDM, reguardless of points -_-b

Let's also hypothetically say there were BLMs that were a point or two behind this WHM, and while this WHM did have the most points, it was by a very small margin.

D Drink is -10% DMG from what I have read. Not physical. I can see a good case for Ninja to have it or even a tanking RDM/NIN.

In kindergarten they teach children to play well with others. In 1st grade they start writing sentences. Where the hell did you get lost along the way?

Could this be the sequel to the Claustrum Galka Epic?
