Now we're talking!

Quote:
Tarbh Uisge

Image

One of the last great buffalo of Vylbrand, Tarbh Uisge was captured while still a calf by an ambitious mummer and trained to entertain audiences around Eorzea. Repeated application of stimulatory and suppressive magicks, however, have slowly eaten away at the beast's sanity, rendering it violent and unpredictable. After its capture nearly a decade ago, Tarbh Uisge was imprisoned on a remote island in the Rhotano Sea and soon forgotten by all...
  • Wanted: Tarbh Uisge

    Image

    Not long ago, Mathistien of the Cloven Hoof and his traveling grotesquery was one of the realm's most popular exhibitions. People would flock from all around the countryside to see such spectacles as the two-headed nannygoat, the hairless phurble, and the show's main attraction—the colossal Tarbh Uisge. However, it was not until after the giant creature broke loose from its fetters and trampled through Limsa Lominsa, starting a fire that destroyed hundreds of buildings and killed countless innocent citizens, including two high-ranking thalassocratic officials, that it was revealed that Mathistien was actually an assassin for the Zer'maat Five. Needless to say, the mummer was promptly arrested and exiled to a lonely island prison in the Cieldalaes, where he has remained in solitude for the past ten years...or so we thought, for lately there have been rumors that the assassin has fled his island prison and is not only back on Vylbrand, but has brought with him his loyal pet, Tarbh Uisge. Azeyma's Shields is certain that this is the work of the Zer'maat Five, and will stop at nothing to recapture this dangerous criminal and bring him back to justice.

    Levequest Location

    Bloodshore
Those who are successful in slaying Tarbh Uisge will be rewarded with a special item known as an Allagan runestone. There are a dozen in all, each representing one of the twelve deities who watch over the peoples of Eorzea. Rumor has that in Ul'dah resides a young trader named Rowena who seeks these rare stones and is offering pieces of finely crafted equipment in exchange.

The following is an example of some of the items available for barter:

Templar Armor

Worn by Ishgardian temple knights who have pledged their lives in service of the Fury, this suit of stunning silver plate and chain is an breathtaking display of master craftsmanship.

I noticed during the levequest text it says "Azeyma's Shields is certain that...", so better start collecting faction points for Azeyma's Shields.

No more faction leves until these bitches come out! Wonder what rank you'll have to be to take them on. Hopefully I can get high enough by the time of release. Here's hoping they aren't broken as soon as they come out though. One can hope can't he?

Ahh nevermind. Judging by the rank level on the gear I'd say max will be the optimal rank to be at. Bah. I'm curious if you can link leves on this like guild leves and what not. And if so does everyone receive the booty. I guess if everyone is already max rank there's no reason to do them one at a time... Guess I better get grinding! 22 more ranks to go!

So it would seem as if these are going to be pretty challenging fights for the rank 40's. We're going to have to start pooling together to see just what we have in terms of classes soon. I guess there's some incentive to ranking up now.

Maybe a thread with everyone's mains would be a good idea so we can have a good look at what we have and what we need. Especially if we want to be prepared as soon as these make an appearance.

I'm going to start assuming Whisp has a stiffy for SQL and other such table based software.

Another question is do we have some form of voice chat for when this all goes down? Vent/Teamspeak makes things way easier.

If only that was it.

He's actually manually going to each and every Lodestone profile page for everyone on the roster and typing it all out himself.
