[Celestraeh]

Updated original string with some time slot information...

Appears that we have healers, Tank...might want a few more DD and a THF with TH2 to make things go smoother...

Goes without saying that we'll want someone with R3 and Teleport Vahzl.

I found these mobs very hard to tank at 58 (Paladin).

We had the best luck with gathering a small group, and going to one of the 4 rooms (Kinda hard to explain...) that pops 4 demons at a time.

Also, don't do like I did..... Open the quest before you open the coffer -.-.
Alla's guide didn't say anything about opening a quest to get the key item, much to my surprise I opened the coffer 3 times before getting the key item. 10k, 10k, and Mages Ballad II.

Good luck ^^b

Yeah, they are rough...

As to quest progression, I have talked to...

Prince Trion
Old Guy in South Sandy House
Hume female in bar
Overweight man in the Lord's house...

Acccording to alla I should be flagged for coffer paintbrush.

Complete success on Paladin AF3! Thank you everone that helped! We started with 1 party and headed out to Castle Zvhal Baileys...did a little bit of room hopping, and had a little competition from farmers, but in short time we got a coffer key (had one false alarm from a chest key -.- dropped off a smn's dark spirit)...in the very same room there was a coffer! =) Lotted key and got paintbrush!

Thanks to Drashogar, Vagnagun, Salest (OMG), Nutan, and Pulverize...that was easily one of the easiest coffer key/coffer hunts I've been on!

Drashogar left briefly, but promised to return after helping out another person in need...everyone volunteered to stay, which was very surprising and heartwarming. =)

Bakslash and his troupe of experience hounds were eventually convinced to make the trek to Davoi to help out, so I headed to San d'Oria and did the next few steps, grabbing a chocobo as soon as I was ready.

We all met up in Davoi and Nutan got the alliance set up...

Thank you Bakslash, Nusakan, Kethry, Syruein, and everyone else....actually I think I am missing one name here...

Very sorry that Vagnagun didn't quite make it to the fight...Bak was trying to get their static PT off the ground for the night's experience...I am at least partially to blame for causing their sense of urgency.

Tanking the PLD Orc NM was actually quite a bit easier than I imagined, but I still was unable to hold hate for very long, despite popping invincible fairly early in the combat lol.

all in all it was an amazing night. thank you everyone for the great deal of concern and love I always can depend on from this wonderful group of comrades I am honored to call {Linkshell} {Friend}s. =)

Much <3,

Congrats Celest!

So when do I get to see the lucky lady in the Gallant Surcoat? :D

[Maliki]

YAY congrat celes~

can't wait to see you using it in static ;)

[Vagnagun]

Very sorry that Vagnagun didn't quite make it to the fight...Bak was trying to get their static PT off the ground for the night's experience

Well just so you know.... I had a pt that i had to got to as well.. but held it off till i was done helping you. If bak and his group was such in a rush to get to their party...then should never came.. i was here from the begining and WAS planning to see it through the end.... what happen to this so called family linkshell if you cant wait for others... no one member is any more special then the next one.. the fact i asked twice to wait for me so i would help, i had paid for a bird, came all the way from jeuno just to come up and see that the fight was over! simply shows.. that ppl only care for them selves..and also is making me realize that im not noticed as ls member. If those ppl didnt find any fault in their action then... its time for me to look for another shell cause i dont take stuff like that lightly.... there i have said my mind.
