Empire's Most Wanted 2 (12/05/2006)

[Lockecole]

Siren is still undefeated and almost everyday its a fight to get in before the 700 limit. So yeah, I'd say still popular.

[Sasarai]

Getting MORE popular on Hades, I remember we could barely get 100 interested. Now its 400+ easily.

EDIT: For all the complaints from Douche Bags around some forums, Besieged is actually a very popular and enjoyable part of Final Fantasy XI.

You haven't lost yet, therefore it might partially be due to Siren attempting to retain its collective e-penis.

Probably just assumed that you play the game that the message board you're on is about. I know, crazy isn't it?

besieged needs to be scraped imo, less and less attend it per day on my server and ppl do nothing but complain about it when they get caught in it. It is not nearly as popular as it used to be. I don't think SE can do enough to make people get all excited about it, especially the people who rather take their merit pt's to sky rather than deal with the fucktards in the new areas.

For a while, I thought Besiege was a failure, but seriously, it's not that bad anymore. Ifrit havent lost once since they added item and all (we were losing every 5 days before that).

The buffer xp is pretty nice, it's an awesome place to skillup an almost capped weapon or magic, and 1 besieged get you 10 free warp at the taru. The gameplay itself, minus the lags, is still fun. It's hard to not smile when 40 ppl get owned from a single self destruct, when a general beastman is running after you, or when you own taru after being charmed.

Giant's drink, reraiser, unerfed magic dmg and shorter battle make them almost fun. I never miss one if I'm in whitegate when it happens

I was messing around on my RDM mule with pretty shitty gear, and I was dropping some crazy damage on mobs.

Wizard's Drink, 1600MP. CS Nuke for like 300 damage each. Do this until Convert is up. Convert, nuke another 1600MP. Then use Revitalizer, Mega-Elixer. Full MP, CS Nuke again, Convert, nuke. Its pretty rediculous and SOO much fun.

When you are in the zone early, you can zone out and back in for another set of item. Most besieged last 20minutes, and you have more than enough time to get your ~1000xp. I'm not sure how much you need exactly, but on samurai, I usually get my 1k after one meikio and a few attack.

I quit. ;_;

[Swatt]

besieged = pld buffer yay

[Minions]

Worst part about failing besiege... is once you get it back you gotta wait 4-5 days for a decent fight worth attending again ;x

[HAcoreRD]

This announcement changes nothing. ToAU HNMs, you're still on notice.

Or the sheer e-penis of having nearly 2100 mp to blow in a single sitting on tier 4 nukes, then getting all right back and going back at it again.

Basically what I do when I spot an NM I think I can deep-fry in Besieged. Works best with a Giant's Drink + Wizard's Drink so the Convert refills your upped MP bar completely.

Besieged is fun stuff nowadays, though you do really have to turn down your settings some to play well.

[Toth]

Okay, it is tomorrow and there is no news. I am very concerned now. The update should be by the end of next week and we have gotten only a few tidbits. I can only see room for maybe three announcements: New Gear, Salvage, and Aht Urghan Quests/Missions in that time. It is beginning to look like this update is going to hold no surprises...

besieged = pld buffer yay

Besieged, Where the PUPs level.



Couldn't resist..

[Correction]

Don't forget 2 Manafonts!

Word.

I usually maximize my nuking time with:

Start beseiged with full MP. Nuke till I have zero, usually 1k worth of MP.

Drink Wizard's.

Drink Hi-Elixir +1

Nuke to zero. That's usually a good 2k MP.

Manafont, nuke another 1k MP away. Mostly -ga3 on single targets and AM2.

Shake hate, drink Megalizir, nuke away another 2k MP.

Use revitalizer, Manafont again, another 1k's worth of free nukes.

Pop Pro Ether +3 and use what it gives (It's like 350 MP iirc).

Eat Wizard cookie, find a quiet corner to heal it all back.

Typically I don't get to use my final tank of MP because it takes forever to heal back all 2kish MP from the wizard's, and the mobs retreat shortly after. Unrestricted nuking of almost 7k mp worth of magic is crazy fun though.

Edit: Suteki wondered aloud what would happen if everyone came Ninja to Besieged and mijin'd an NM with Giant's up. Can't help but say I'm curious myself.

Ok, that sounds new to me. I take part in Beseiged whenever I can, and I still spend 1 silver piece per warp...did I miss something? Is this the NQ taru?
