Moblin Maze Monday #13

Posted by Segan on Monday Jun 8, 2009 Under Moblin Maze Mondays

Before I go into yet another late update, please bare with me for a very important notice.

Starting June 29, 2009 through August 8, 2009 I will be unable to make it in time for the Moblin Maze Mondays Event. My reason is because I have an English class from 6:15PM to 9:30PM EST. Because Katamatoo has Dynamis with is other LS on Odin, I ask that Katamatoo setup and prepare the night before my arrival. This new system will continue until December 21, 2009 when Fall Semester ends for the rest of 2009. 2010’s schedule is unknown to me at this time, and another notice will be announced when I get more information.

And now for the update!

The order was as follows:

  1. Tamtu
  2. Danta
  3. Luca
  4. Katama
  5. Raige
  6. Eru
  7. Segan
  8. Cressidia
  9. Belladiel
  10. Leylia

Due to a previously planned engagement, Raige was unable to do his run, but was able to get a taste of Moblin Maze Mondays. Another member, Leylia, didn’t do his run but tried it out and enjoyed it very much! Hope to see you in the mix next time~! Some late arrivals include Cressidia and Belladiel. Damn you work and driving school~!

Going into the Runes we received, Danta got Maze Rune 052, and Cressidia got the Maze Rune 096! Unfortunately no other drops were had, but hey! Next time guys!

The only thing I can say that hindered our success last monday was Tamtu’s double elemental run. Ice Elementals right before Light Elementals…not good. This run ended in failure, but did that discourage Tamtu? Nope! He participated in yet another, right after!

Speaking of which, for those who haven’t yet, and have the Marbles to spend, you should look into buying Mob-Control Runes. I call them this because they make sure Elementals don’t show up. Having multiple of them in one Tabula can ensure a variety of mobs, but remember not to put to many. This doesn’t apply for the Maze Voucher #03. This Voucher will get messed up and do random mobs if two or more Mob Control Runes are chosen. For 100 Marbles you can buy Maze Rune 001, Maze Rune 002, and Maze Rune 003. For 200 Marbles you can get Maze Rune 004, Maze Rune 005, Maze Rune 006, and Maze Rune 007, and for 300 Marbles you can get Maze Rune 008 and Maze Rune 009.

One more note for you all. I have some help now with the updates. Danta will be making sure that these updates get done on time. So he’ll be helping out when he can. Thanks Danta~!

Until next time~
Peace~!

This Week in Hyozan #16 (week 22)

Posted by Tamtu on Tuesday Jun 2, 2009 Under This week in Hyozan

thisweek1This week is going to be an exciting week for myself! Sooraya and her family will be visiting next week so I need to get things spotless and clean! Doesn’t mean I won’t be busy myself, though. I’ll be going on a hiatus next week, just so you know.

For now, I’ve been thieving it up in Vana’diel and got THF from 26 to 32! 27-31 in something that was pretty much an all-day XP event with Arwin. Fun was to be had as we swapped in LS members throughout the day in the Jungles. I gotta say, Trick Attack is a lovely, lovely thing. Now to find some innocent White Mages to SATA.

TamTu grins roguishly at Sooraya.

Besides that, I got the AF weapons for Black Mage and Warrior with the help of Arwin and Ravencroft for completionists purposes. Still need Warp II, though.

Let’s see what the others have been upto!

  • Raige is slowly climbing up on Dancer at 17!
  • Katamatoo’s worked his Thief to 21 and Samurai to 34!
  • Level 25 White Mage Sooraya at your service! We have an additional Raiser in the LS, people :D
  • Ghostofonyx is now finally enjoying the wonders of Warp with his Black Mage levelled to 17! His Monk is sitting nicely at 31 as well.
  • Cressidia is steadily working on Dancer, sitting at 43 and hitting Rank 5! Now she too can rap along to my parody! Samurai to 30 as well.
  • Segan got his Black Mage to 40! (Hey buddy. Under Observation, {Can I have it?}, {Please}? Pretty pleaaaase?)
  • Kigeca unlocked Summoner and Samurai, got her Red Mage to 36 with BLM and WHM both nearing 20.
  • Danta got his Warrior up to 27, Puppetmaster to 48 and Rank 5 in Bastok! (Airship Rap, {You can have this}).
  • Garin finished Dragoon to sub-level and got his last Mog Safe expansion done.
  • Eruainur is still goin through Ninja. 29 levels done, 8 more to go! You can do it :D

Before I wrap this up, here’s a link I found at the Playonline Community sites page: http://ffxigear.com/ It’s probably the best gear tool-site I’ve ever encountered! Check it out :) It’s great for planning ahead or check out your current stats with particular setups.

Moblin Maze Monday #12

Posted by Segan on Monday Jun 1, 2009 Under Moblin Maze Mondays

I really need to stop doing this with my updates. Could get Tamtu upset! At anyrate, hey everyone, I apologize for being a week late, I had a lot on my plate what with school, pool cleaning, yard work, and getting BLM to a nice comfortable AF weapon level getting level. Without further ado, here we go!

The roster for last monday was as follows:

  1. Tamtu
  2. Katamatoo
  3. Segan
  4. Eruainur
  5. Cressidia
  6. Danta
  7. Ephiroth
  8. Bella
  9. Zegg

We had some pretty successful runs that night with some Rune drops. Tamtu got a Maze Rune 042 to drop on his run, Segan got a Maze Rune 052, Danta got a Maze Rune 056, and Zegg got a Maze Rune 039! For those who didn’t get any drops, we can try on June 1, 2009~!

Using a few of the same Vouchers as usual, we had Maze Vouchers 01, 02, and 03 used. On of these days I think I’ll get the Synthesis Voucher, Maze Voucher 04. Give it a whirl~! Anyone want to test it with me when I get the Voucher just give me a /tell or shout out to me on Ventrillo~!

Well this update sure was short. Katama did most of the data work because my Database was acting up. Oh well Microsoft…oh well…

Good luck tonight everyone and let’s get the Maze Monger Monday #13, Mongered~!

Moblin Maze Monday Notice

Posted by Segan on Wednesday May 20, 2009 Under Moblin Maze Mondays

While I’m supposed to recap last night’s MMM run, I have to say, “There wasn’t one!”

Yes, it does seem that this Monday was most inconvenient for some. Maybe some thought it was over. Maybe some had more important things to do. Maybe some had some farming or other things they wanted to do. Don’t worry though because this was bound to happen. Not to say that it was a bad thing. I’d just like to take this time to broadcast a reminder to everyone in case some people forgot or otherwise.

  • MMMs starts at 6:30 to 7:00 PM EST
  • We gather together at 6:00 to 6:30 PM EST at Lower Jeuno’s Chocobo Stables.
  • Have your Tabulas ready and when you get to the rendezvous point you can customize your runes to your heart’s content. Or do it before hand!
  • Once we get everyone together we do our roll to see what the order we will have. This is usually done at 7:00PM EST.

And thats just about it. The reason for the time to be so “Perfect” is because on an average Monday Night it takes us from 6:00PM to 12:00AM. To start any later would spell total devastation on my sleep and I like to sleep!

Also, a question was brought to my attention an hour before we were supposed to start. Basically stating that I canceled further MMMs because of the loss of a LS member. This is not true. The loss of Hileict didn’t indicate a loss of this wonderful event. Of course I’m not saying that a lot of people thought this, just a small few. I assure you that the event is still on!

Lastly, I’d like to remind everyone that this isn’t a members only event. If you’ve never done this event doesn’t mean you’re not welcome! As a matter of fact, you are all invited to join us. If you’ve never done it and are not too sure about it, come check it out.

For more information on the event’s mechanics, by all means Click Here!
That link will take you to the thread that explains EVERYTHING that goes on in the event and such. It still needs a lot of editing and fine tuning, but that is how it is now.

And that’s it for this weeks update! I hope to see you next Monday for a great evening!

Moblin Maze Monday #11

Posted by Segan on Thursday May 14, 2009 Under Moblin Maze Mondays


We need to stop having such good runs because all I say every update is, “What a great night,” and that is exactly what Monday night was.
We had a guest come in from another LS, but participation will only be allowed if he is in Hyozan for more than just Mondays. Now without further ado, let the update begin~!

The list was as follows:

  1. Zetra
  2. *Guest*
  3. Segan
  4. Cressidia
  5. Granas
  6. Katamatoo
  7. Hileict
  8. Belladiel
  9. Sigmund

On request before starting, Zetra went first due to homework only to return back later on in the night. Hileict’s run, to my knowledge was never done and he skipped out. Granas also left the event early for personal reasons left unexplained. Katsukora, due to a minor FFXI error, had to reinstall the game, and he missed the event entirely. Next monday Katsu~!

The Rune drops, well, My database decided to crap out this morning and glitched causing all but one runner’s Rune list to dissappear. The only Rune that was logged was Zetra’s run. She recieved the Maze Rune 045. Congradulations to her and the other runners who got Runes. I apologize for the glitch everyone.

The Maze Vouchers were basically the same as last monday. The only minor change that I have logged is the new Tabula I got: Maze Tabula 02. This tabula has the Elements of Light, Thunder, Fire, and Wind.

Before I end this post, may I say that Katama did an amazing job tanking Monday night. Congrats on Zero deaths too! The only death we had went to Cressidia. Also, we unfortunately (to my knowledge) had no screenshots for this Monday. Lastly on a personal note, I give my most humble apologies for being late on the blog post 2 times in a row.

See you next Monday! Don’t forget, you can join us any Monday and every Monday! Just get your Tabula ready and head down to Lower Jeuno’s Chocobo Stables at 6:30PM EST~!

This week in Hyozan #13 (week 19)

Posted by Tamtu on Monday May 11, 2009 Under This week in Hyozan

thisweek1

We’ve got a bunch of stuff done this week, but mostly: People have been returning! Garin popped up a bit more frequently, as well as RAAAAAAAIIIGEEE. Myri finally got off her City of Heroes kick and found her residence back into Vana’diel, as did Kigeca and Zaryph. And one of the more exciting returns is that of Biri!

We had an amazing alliance in the Dunes, ending up with 16 people in the sandy beaches fighting lizards and goblins and sheep, oh my! It all started when an un-named smartass Tarutaru telling Raige about skills and crap (or lack there of) under level sync, then going ahead and camp on top of us. Even went as far as calling us noobs, when he couldn’t even lead his party to do anything, besides having the NIN-tank die. He promptly ditched them to solo his Ranger and left to their own devices, their new leader Rickyorton asked if we wanted to alliance with them. I told everyone in vent to do it. Crazy shit. It’d be awesome.

Moblin Maze Monday #10

Posted by Segan on Wednesday May 6, 2009 Under Moblin Maze Mondays


Sorry about the lateness on this post, but without further ado, allow me to announce the 10th MMM post~!

Our Roster for the night was:

  1. Segan
  2. Granas
  3. Cressidia
  4. Katsukora
  5. Zetra
  6. Kaizier
  7. Feril
  8. Belladiel
  9. Hileict
  10. Danta
  11. Sigmund

For the runes last night we had drops for Cressidia, Zetra, and Belladeil (To my knowledge this was it). Cressidia got Maze Rune 042, Zetra got Maze Rune 081, and Belladiel got Maze Rune 043, which I unfortunately, due to sleep deprivation, lotted on and got by mistake. To make up for this mistake, the next time I get a rune, I will pass it to Belladiel.

Most of the runs went very well except for Granas’ run and Hileict’s run (To my current knowledge). Granas’ run was incompleted due to Time Out. They had an unfortunate encounter with elementals and it slowed them down too much. But they were almost finished with the run so it almost went through. Hileict’s run on the other hand, killed everyone once again. Not that that is a bad thing, but this is Run #3 that killed us. Other than that, I believe the rest of the runs went quite well!

To my knowledge, we had a few different Vouchers again instead of the usual Voucher #01. We had my Voucher #03, we had a few Voucher #02s and a few #01s. Sigmund, after having two failed attempts at Voucher #06, he decided to play it safe and do a Voucher #01 instead.

As for Levels, I don’t recall any level ups during the event. Maybe after I left, which was quite strange for me to do.

Well that’s it I think for this week! Be sure to meet us up at the same spot as usual for another great Monday~! And if you’re new, don’t sweat it! Whether you’ve done it before or not, just meet us over at Lower Jeuno’s Chocobo Stables with your Maze Tabula and 100 gil and get ready to Mumble and Monger!
