Announcing Company Credit Contest Winners for December

Leave a comment

Hello everyone, Headmistress Kela here to announce the winners of the Company Credit Contest for the month of December 2017.

A brief primer for new members, every month the FC leadership looks at who generated the most company seals for each week in the prior month, and in the month overall. High earners are rewarded with the special title “Eorzean PhD” and free rare and expensive glamour items as incentive. When our members generate good credit numbers, The Nymian Royal academy ranks higher against other Free Companies in the server, which is why we incentivize credit earning with rewards. In the month of December, the Academy ranked #12 overall between all FCs on Brynhildr. This is EXCELLENT news, and we have our faithful and diligent members to thank for it.

The prizes are as follows: The top earner for each week will earn the Eorzean PhD title, and any and all members who managed to rank in the top 500 overall for the month will receive their choice of glamour.

Here are the results; names are followed by overall server rank, lower ranks are better.

Synched Raiders Down Melusine in the Coil of Bahamut Turn 7

Leave a comment

After many weeks of attempting their most complex fight yet, the Synched Raiding club finally bested the terrible Melusine in Second Coil turn 2 also known as Turn Seven. Renauds got stoned and players tried their best not to flash each other and after executing a complex dance of pain, the evil gorgon of the Shroud was downed. And there were much Fending drops, yay!

 

The clearing team consisted of Danye and Cerys tanking, Kela and guest healer Bob returning to heal, and Ponyo, Korodi, Hunter and Max on DPS. Please see the five minute clear video to show our loyal returning participants some affection!

Congratulations to all, and we will meet again same time next week for T8!

Starlight, Starbright: Royal Academy Hosts Brynhildr Christmas Celebration

Leave a comment

On Sunday, December 10, 2017, Nymian Royal Academy hosted the dessert course of the Second Annual sever-wide “Progressive Starlight Dinner”. The Starlight celebration is the Eorzean equivalent of Christmas and our fearless Server-leaded Thancred Tsuniko organized a five-course meal, with each course being hosted by a different Free Company. Free Companies would then pass out free crafted culinary treats, while also potentially hosting other contests and giving away other prizes.

The Academy hosted the dessert course and gave out Fruit Tarts, Cheesecake and Bakalava. In addition a spontaneous contest arouse out of fortuitous accident. After Headmistress Kela decorated the yard for the party, the willow was moved close enough to the awning such that, with careful climbing, one could access the awning and rooftoop. People who reached the awning were awarded their own Glamour Weapon. Our own Els Ewhere was the first to accomplish the goal.

Later on, people who reached the awning attempted to then climb to the roof. One Sylphid Hena was successful, the results are as you see!

The snow decorations will stay up until after the Starlight Celebration seasonal event has ended. You can read more about that event here! After that, the jump puzzle to the roof via furniture will remain, so enjoy trying to AFK on the rooftop!

Merry Christmas, Stabbies!

Weekly and Monthly Credit Contest Winners for November

Leave a comment

Greetings, Stabbies! I would like to remind/invite our members to participate in our Free Company Credit earning contest for weekly and monthly incentives.

For those that are new to the Free Company and to FFXIV in general, a quick summary. Free Companies receive currency called credits whenever their members play the game. Some activities give more credits than others, the most effective way to earn credits is to turn in crafting, gathering and dungeon drops daily at your Grand Company headquarters. A record of everyone’s credit earnings are kept and displayed on FFXIV’s the Lodestone page weekly on every Tuesday and on the first day of a new month.

Not only does earning credits give the FC currency to spend on vital items, but it also allows us to rank higher against other Free Companies on the server, and is generally a metric for strength and activity of Free Company. Because of this, Nymian Royal Academy has a vested interest in incentivizing our members to collect as many credits as they can.

At the end of each month, we look back at the weekly and monthly rankings of our members. The person in the FC that collected the most credits for any one week will earn a special rank “Eorzean PhD” that they can wear for the next month. Anyone who is ranked overall on credits for the month (meaning in the top 500 players on the server over the month) will receive the title and a free rare glamour item of their choice, provided by the Free Company.

Now the rankings for the month of November:

  1. Week 1
    1. Danye Merlskyfsyn – 366th
  2.  Week 2
    1. Justin Moonsbane – 196th
