So it looks like my monking days are coming to a close again. But I’m not complaining.<\/p>\n
Much to my surprise, it appears as though I’m needed on thief.<\/p>\n
At least I know in advance what subjob I’m bringing :).<\/p>\n
For last night’s Dynamis – Valkrum, only one thief showed up. So, I ended up running back to town to do a quick change to thief. I was in such a hurry and had such nervous excitement, that I forgot 2 pieces of gear that I shouldn’t have. The first being my normal pants (Bravo’s Subligar), which was not a huge problem. I just wore my AFv2 ones instead. The second was also not a huge deal, it was my shield (Tatami), which is just such a nice item that I rarely get to use.<\/p>\n
I ended up being puller for one of the 3 Nightmare Flies. Since it was my first time as thief in this zone, I was nervous.<\/p>\n
It took me a little bit to locate the fly, but I found it and waited for it to move.<\/p>\n
I grabbed it and started running to camp.<\/p>\n
It was so exciting, it was thrilling… the fly caught up to me. No worries, hit the flee and I’ll be fine *splat*. Crap, I’m dead.<\/p>\n
I gotta admit, my heart sunk a little. First time trying that pull and I screwed it up.<\/p>\n
No one could get to where I was fast enough to save the pull, so I did the noble thing.<\/p>\n
Accepted reraise, hit perfect dodge, and shot the fly again. As soon as I dropped off the cliff, I had a black mage and ninja to get a little hate on it. Arrived back in camp with 30 hp.<\/p>\n
Next time I’ll live through it :).<\/p>\n
After that was one of the smoothest dreamland runs I’ve seen maybe ever. And the drops were amazing.<\/p>\n
2 Ninja Belts
\n1 Paladin Cape
\n1 Summoner -1 Head
\n1 Samurai -1 Head<\/p>\n
Of course, as one of 2 thieves there, I take full credit for all drops.<\/p>\n
It would have been a lot better if I had some alcohol, because I needed it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
