Going in Blind: Royal City of Rabanastre

Leave a comment

Patch 4.1 just dropped and right away the Stabbies ventured in to the new 24-man raid: the Royal City of Rabanastre! Not only did our brave adventurers jump right in to the new raid, but they did so BLIND. No videos, no guides, just knowledge of their classes and attempting to not stand in bad.
The Stabbies team consisted of:

Sukutak (Warrior)
Hunter (Astrologian)
Ponyo (Dragoon)
N’tohj (Summoner)
Cerys Ninja)
Maximillion (Bard)
Haegar (Black Mage)
Kela (Scholar)

Though they did not clear the City in this first attempt, they’re gearing up to try again and snag that clear very soon. Watch the antics of the first attempts below!

The stabbies did attempt a clear the next day and were successful, see how they worked mechanics in this video!

 

Not a Catastrophe: Omega V2 Savage Clear

Leave a comment

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and the Stabbies first Omega V2 Savage clear was a thing of beauty. Only one pull was needed to put Catastrophe in his place, as the team was almost perfectly in sync. Mechanics that had been tricky in the past were handled with ease and the DPS brought their A-game, downing the giant eyeball of doom about 20 seconds before enrage.

Raid Team consisted of:
Tanks Sukutak and Jellysaurus (Warrior and Dark Knight)
Healers Kela and Celaena (Scholar and Astrologian)
DPS Apollo, Justin Moonsbane, Nikko, and PUG member Shaba (Bard, Monk, Red Mage, Samurai)

The brave adventurers were handsomely rewarded for their work; Justin picked up both the maiming and scouting drops, while Kela added the tomestone drops to her collection (like a book-loving Scholar does).

Check out the video below to witness the epic clear!

Fun Numbers!

Raiders of the Lost Canals

Leave a comment

Once again our intrepid adventurers put on their treasure hunting hats and ventured forth into Othard and Gyr Abania in search of portals to the Lost Canals of Uznair. With most everyone geared for raiding, the group had no trouble dispatching the monsters drawn by treasure traps.

Then, the portal opened. Excited for the treasure that awaited them, the group rushed down the water slides of the Lost Canals. New Argus and New Treasure Goblins were no match for the team and for the first time, the Stabbies made it to the final room. The fancy bath house decor was a sharp contrast to the GIANT MONSTER that stood in the middle, waiting to pounce. Part way through the battle the monster called upon allies and MORE ENEMIES flooded the canal room.

The Stabbies persevered and defeated all the summoned enemies and opened the final treasure chest. Loot galore was distributed, much gil was made, and fun was had by all.

Want to be a treasure hunter too? Grab your level 70 class, a Timeworn Gazelleskin map (optional), and your best adventure music (also optional…….but fun) and join us at our new time, SUNDAYS 7:30pm CST for Maps Club!

We Are the Alpha: Omega V1 Savage Clear

Leave a comment

Monday, July 24, the Stabbies once again took on the feared Omega Savage mode. This run, the raid team was comprised of:

Tanks Sukutak and Jellysaurus (Double Warriors!)
Healers Kela and Celaena (Scholar and Astrologian)
DPS Ravella, Justin Moonsbane, Haegar, and Nikko (Monk, Samurai, and Double Red Mage)

Things seemed to be going well for our heroes, with progress being made each run. On what was to be the final run of the evening, victory seemed to be within their grasp! However, Omega had other plans and snatched away the team’s clear with a 0.25% enrage.

Instead of causing the Stabbies to lose heart (undoubtedly what Omega intended) this fraction of a percentage wipe only served to spur on our heroes for another run. Fighting valiantly with the determination that they would not be fooled again, the Stabbies deepsed their hearts out and brought the flying serpent back down to earth.

Not only did our brave adventurers defeat the first boss of Omega Savage, that clear placed them in the Top 20 for Deltascape v1.0 Savage clears on the Brynhildr server! Watch the triumphant run via the video below!

With the first clear under their belts, the Stabbies will regroup, gear up, and prepare themselves for the horror of

Nymian Royal Academy at #20!

On Thin Ice: Omega V1 Savage

Leave a comment

Wednesday, July 19th, the Stabbies began their epic fight against the machinations of Omega: Savage. The primary raid team consisted of:

Tanks Sukutak and Jellysaurus (Double Warriors!)
Healers Kela and Celaena (Scholar and Astrologian)
DPS Ravella, Justin Moonsbane, N’tohj, and Nikko (Monk, Samurai, Summoner, and Red Mage)

While not too terribly different from the normal mode boss fight, Savage mechanics do make positioning much more important. Slightly too far in or out and the knock-back can knock a player clear off the platform. And levinbolts to the face are no fun if there’s more than one! Ice skating around and away from bombs proved to be an important skill that most all of the team had gotten the hang of by the last run of the night.

Though the boss continued to snatch victory away from the team, our brave adventurers made progress with each attempt, proving they are indeed learning!

Below is the video recording of the best run of the night at around 34%. May the Stabbies be triumphant next raid!
