Notorious Death

So, I logged on today and I got a /tell from a dear old newb -- err, Friend. =)

Miryoku>> Wanna make 100k?
Kallo>> Fuck yea, I do.

That was the extent of the conversation! So, I hop on out to Grauberg_S and the plan is to kill the NM Wyvern Scitalis in hopes of the Saurian Helm dropping which sells for about 700k on the Auction House.

Now, the Wiki has a few testimonials of it being trio'd, he's very similar to Ungur which can also be trio'd, even duo'd in some cases. As long as you're good at what you do and careful he's not to hard. But, it's very easy for this guy to get away from you. He uses Para\Silence like most Wyverns, has fast attacks and double attacks about 50% of the time. Also, if he lands a melee he does an extra 100 wind damage.

Our first attempt...Me, Miryoku(Thf), Frag(Pld), Rael (Whm), Scottie (BLU68). Frag ate dirt SO fast it was super funny. Me and Miry bounced hate back and forth and go him down to 20% where he wasted Miry. Then I got him to about 10-8% before I went down.

So, we got all raised up and what not. By this time Frag went AFK and Forix (DRG) and Aeredon (DRK) showed up. Well, our DDs got a little excited when we pulled...and it took Miryoku and I a moment to get hate settled. In the confusion Scitalis cleared by shadows and Fang Rushed me quick...I went down at 85% and our DDs just unloaded on him (No 2 hours or JAs) and got him to 45% before Miry ate dirt and everyone else behind her.

We got raised up again and Miry\Forix has to leave and Frag was still AFK. So we disbanded...

And then I called in some favors.

Hiryo (Mnk), Myrrial (RDM), Crlmsonking (RDM), Eminatriee (NIN) and Frag (WAR now) came back. So, we pull it...at about 85% Emi eats some gravel. Hiryo and I take turns tanking it, off and on. I die...Hiryo stays up for awhile then he dies. Then Myrrial dies, then Frag then Crlmson goes down. Myrrial reported it at 8% with Bio on it.

Now, this thing doesn't have much HP for as strong as it is. So, Myrrial uses his re-raise and goes and keeps it claimed, keeping DoT on it and gets hit again. She raises up once more and DoTs it again getting on shotted with it at 2% and a DoT. So, while weakened and at 98 HP, I put up shadows and claim it at 1% and whack it a few times -- Myrrial's DoT gets the kill.

No helm.

But fun nonetheless! I took a lot of pictures.

Too bad I'm lazy and don't want to post 'em.
