{Long time}

yes, it has been a long time. At least for Peach to feel so. {Long time} no events to blog about. {Long time} no time to join hnmls for events. {Long time} since ever felt the total enjoyment and no disturbance of the game..without dozing half way.. lol!

Hmm..wondering if Peach one day decide to blog something out of real life..will you as a reader still interested to read?

Hmm..maybe not, hor? =)

Goodbyes



Bah! Time to say Goodbyes again. . . Peach hate this most in the game.

Totu, due to real-life work commitments, had decided to leave the funky us in the Vanadiel World.

All the best to you Totu, write about us if you ever have a chance? haha!

Fighting the Promathia


HO HO HO!

We are coming to the end of COP missions. Happy in a way as we let out a sign of relief; no more gil-depleting BC! But sad in a way, as Peach felt something missing from the game for nothing much to look forward to..... how confusing feelings!

For COP mission 8-4, we met with Promathia! It was not an easy battle. It has 2 forms, with the 2nd form much harder than the first. Oh yah! we were joined with Pishe and the "bird-man" (LOL, cannot remember his name! S-something)

Peach and the rest lost this battle 2x, with a sweet victory for 3rd and 4th time. Incidentally, the 2 loses was because we had failed to protect the "bird man". So if you are reading this, you are to make sure the "bird-man" lives. In actual fact, the "bird-man" hardly gain any hate from Promathia, but the AOE hit him. In addition, our tank and some other members KO, so resulted the Promathia went after the "bird-man".

Its' 1st form was pretty easy as it was rather weak towards magic attack. 2nd form required some well-thought strategy. For Peach's team, we used the transition time to rest full, melees and tank used sleep pots to get TP above 100%.

Weaponskills were unleashed once PLD engaged Promathia. After all the damage, PLD started to kite Promathia around the battle arena. And the rest of the damage dealers will run after to deal damage on Promathia when "bird-man" used his Stun on Promathia.

And Peach the blackmage focus on healing Pishe and doing small magic damage when Promathia put up Physical defence.

Wow! A tiring BC, with lots of running around!

But we were all well-rewarded with nice cutscenes following the victory.

And how Peach hate those small little monsters of the same race with Peach. Those little .... %@^#((@&* (bleah!) They gave those terrible nicknames to Peach!?! How rude! Who are their father! They need some discipline!

Come to think of it...If you know who is Goldmane, He is the father of these 3 tarus! Goldmane was mentioned in this blog before, but not a mention of his name at the time of posting. So...make your own guess! In case, Peach is blamed for too much spoliers!

Or you can complete the quest "The search for Goldmane". You will find the answer...

Hurray! Now we can proceed to Beaucedine Glacier! But we did not enter with the thought of clearing the area, as we know that we need more people + speed. It was a fun exploring session! And of cause, major wipeout near the end...hiak ;p

2 Pet Fishes


Peach recently have 2 more members living under the same roof.

How nice! Now Moogle doesn't have to be alone while Peach is out for adventure.

Thanks Crash for sharing that the bowl can be displayed as furnishing...if not the Ex Goldfish Set will still be sitting with Moogle as Peach is lazy to find materials to craft. Hehe!

SummerFest 2005


It's here again!

Fireworks, city decorations, lively music, goldfishing! They are all back this year. Other than these, this year there's tarus dancing in the cities!

Peach ran back to Moogle and asked for the Yakuta+1 that Moogle had kept away after last year SummerFest. Nothing new about Gold Fishing this year, but there's a new prize to exchange for using 80 points. The Goldfish Set!

Nice way to fish and relax in the cooling river....



This show only part of the harvest, which consist of all 3 types of fishes :



The real fun of SummerFest starts after about 1 week+ of goldfishing! Peach is supposed to find a partner and search for a Checkpoint in the different towns. We are to trade the dolls that we find with each other before asking Moogle to reward us.





And the rewards?

Peach in bright "swimsuit"!

Meow~

Square Enix must have heard Peach loud screams of being lonely in Vanadiel! And Peach was given the privilege to chose a partner to adventure together.

But before Peach is awarded with the partner, Peach had to complete 3 quests. Long queues were forming infront of the Quest 2 NM sprawn point and Quest 3 Dragon BC Hut, right after the July updates. Peach was fortunate to chose a time where the queues for both quests were relatively short.

Here's some screenshots for Quest 3 fight :
