Busy Busy

Well once again I forgot to update this thing (thanks Jedi for the reminder :P) so here we go-

Recent CK Events:

We've been farming in sea and pushing a few more members through the last few battles for sea access in preparation for tier 2 jailers and beyond. We've got a solid sea team ready and its only a matter of time before we're spawning the next level of monsters there.

Our limbus division stepped into the arena with Ultima for the first time and despite having the wrong job spread (as we found out not long after engaging) we did quite well. Adjustments have been made and next time we will have a better go at this guy.

CK also had a couple of HNM claims this week (Behemoth, LoO). We seem to be getting the hang of competing for claims in rare spawn situations. We're still learning, but as we gain experience, we're improving our ability to win some of these claims.

Oh and by the way, we don't cheat. We'd appreciate it if those who continue to suggest that we do (only a few bad apples amongst a group we have great respect for) to accept the fact that you don't win every claim. Our guys have worked hard, legitimately, at improving our HNM game and to insist otherwise only reflects poorly upon your own team. A shell that is graceful in defeat is even more honorable in its triumph.

We attempted our first ever Kirin with melee burn style tactics on Thursday (goal being to hold him with constant dps long enough to burn him out before he can even summon). We did alright but had to revert back to traditional kiting methods when he managed to summon his minis. CK finished him off though and finally got our second ever pair of crimson legs (in who knows how many kills between drops) Congrats to Nogard on his new speedyness.

PinCKs Dynamis has been struggling with attendance, especially in my absense from the dynamis scene as a result of increased workloads irl. The decision has been made to put it on hold until playtimes allow for us to jump back in and run it again. Members will likely disperse to other shells in the meantime, so the future of our dynamis operation is uncertain. It was, however, a great run and I'd like to thank all those who remained loyal to our group and participated in our success over the last 2 years.

We have some big plans for the next two weeks, so expect some major updates in the days to come.
