Longwinded and dorky.
I had a pt at cn on my 49pld with Metal's warrior in which we encountered the Nidhogg Crawler. Xiona was brd and skibear rdm, we also had a monk and a whm. We were fighting a regular vt rumble crawler when xiona comes back with an aggro pulled knight crawler, which we could usually handle ok except in this instance we were not prepared <.<
We had to sleep this crawler halfway through the fight and rest, meanwhile the monk in his monkishness starts boosting for his "OMG999GETMEIN"
The God crawler awakens and we continue fighting this monstrosity, get it down to 10% and realize we've run out of mp again, it resists lullaby 3 times. We fight it down to 2% where it seems to cling to life for an eternity, finally killing my poor ass in the process, one of few non-intentional deaths from 1-75 lol. Three seconds later the monk finishes it off. I was 50 tnl before I died and pt ended :(
That pt started off with a jp warrior aggroing half the zone and getting me, metal, and skibear killed while xiona ran off to log out of hate. lol
but that battle sucked I wouldn't want to relive it.
March 10th Nidhogg. 2 whm, 2 rdm, 1 pld/war, 3 blm, 1 brd, 1 drg, 1 thf, 1 mnk, 1 war, 1 smn. The whms kept d/cing, smn kept dying/deleveling, drg kept missing his ws, and thf couldn't get tp fast enough, which didn't matter much because we only had 3 blm for the sc and Nidhogg was pissed. Solo pld/war tank wearing the mighty Gallant Surcoat, equipped for survival which meant he had a shorter enmity stack. Zel had to use 9 pescatoras in the fight because of horrid roar. The summoner perma-deleveled to 74. I logged off hate and returned to be eaten on the next mb, 2shotted while nid was in his unnamed sp mode, each blm took at least 2 deaths. So I reraise and go off to rest in a corner while zelphes decides that this fight isn't hard enough, and pulls 3 darters. So Skibear says it's over like a pansy while my raise weakened ass stacks sleepga2 on the lullabied darters. The melees peel off nid and 2hour the flies with soul voice. My weakness wears off and gotenks logs in, having run out of that day's class to join the fight. An extra summoner logs in, followed by an rdm. We swap out the monk for the rdm, add the new smn to the blm pt along with gotenks on blm, and finally at 30% a paladin logs in at the aery and we take the rumble to nidhogg, fighting it down to 20% where we end up needing to sleep it.
Our deleveled summoner reminds us we now have 5 minutes til Nidhogg goes into zerk mode.
So we have an angry king dragon, we have a finalized and sturdy alliance, we have enough tp for one light skillchain, and we have under 5 minutes to make something happen. So we decide not to let nid awaken of his own accord. We are going to zerg it down as best we can with 2 weak blms, 2 strong blms, and 1 skillchain....but first Aemon is going to use Steel Cyclone just for the epic sound effect to kick this off. Then our skillchain, our mbs, and onto the zerg.
The sound of multiple manafonts firing up is enough to make my heart sing.
Plds were to take turns on invincible but something went wrong which I can't remember and we somehow ended up with only 1 invincible. The first guy died after his wore, and zelphes ended up dead, then reraised to hit his but died instantly again, leaving black mages to tank it, which works really well I hear. Drg down, thf down, smn down, blm x2 down, rdm down, whm x2 down, brd down, pld x2 down. My manafont wears off as I'm casting a thunder4 so the cast stops, BUT refresh is on me and gets my mp up to T4 in 6 seconds. So I cast this thinking it's gonna be killshot and WHADDAYAKNOW I get resisted and strike only 162 damage. At this point I drop my controller because it's done. Other blm is dead, I'm alive because my nukes are weak lol, but I only have 2 mp.
Then that faggot dragon gets killed by a chainspelling rdm's fire2. 36 damage kill shot.
I was hooting and hollering so loud I threw out muscles in my chest. Thinking of that fight makes me want to throw up but hohoholy shit it was exciting
84 exp.
2 M body.
I got my cuirass absolved before zelphes because he was busy eating 2 whole pizzas after the fight. lol norwegian pizza.
