Zel and party fighting Amon the Undying



Zoomies


So there I was, minding my own business in the Dravanian Hinterlands, farming a few fates for my relics, when Zeb comes on!


Zel and Cecily in the Dravanian Hinterlands. The overlaid chat box reads:
                                    Zeb Ya: Zelbot! Can you zoomzoom!
									Zel Lumei: Hiii You mean dungeons? i can ye

Zeb must be channelling Sonic because she Gotta Go Fast.

I don’t mind though, even when healing. It keeps me on my toes. The only thing I don’t like about speedrunning while I’m on bard is that for some reason, my AoE has a ludicrously short range. I don’t get it at all, I’m an archer! I’m supposed to have good range!

I’m getting better at it bard though, and am better with keeping my songs and dots up. Sometimes I let them lapse a bit, but it’s way more annoying to lose dots than to forget to play a song.


Party running through Lunar Subterrane. Overlaid chatbox reads:
                                    Magris Ashenford: Heya!
									Zeb Ya: Hi there! Zoom zoom!
									Zereph freewind: Hello!
									Zel Lumei: Meow's it going?
									Zeb Ya: We are racing friends.

During Trials, we got Zeromus, which I usually don't have a problem with...until I died to something and forgot to heal myself before trying to raise the other healer. Whoops! Thankfully, Zeb and Mag, on warrior and dark knight respectively, are pros and were able to finish it off by themselves.


Party fighting Zeromus
The party are all dead except Zeb and Magriss. Overlaid chatbox reads:
                                    Thereal Cotus: I believe
									Zel Lumei: They got this lmao. If nothing else Zeb is a WAR so basically immortal
									Good Manman: true
									Zel Lumei: IDK about Mag though
									Thereal Cotus: Too angry to die
									Abtoko Kills: hehe
									Zel Lumei: Great Googly Moogly
									Talulah Fang: Yeah if that can't kill them notihng left should be able to
									Abtoko Kills: They just need us for the fight to go faster.

And what's Circus Tower without a little rescue trolling during Curtain Call?

									 Zel Lumei: Naaaah i just wanted to yank you lmao. What's the point of rescue if I don't use it on my friends

Raids gave us Eden. Again. IfritGaruda. Again. But this time I was much more prepared than last time!


Party fighting Eden Garuda

It’s always fun running roulettes and stuff with my FC. I adore them so much. :)


Party fighting Arkas from Aetherfont
Zel using bard Limit Break 2 on Durante

Fighting the Five-headed dragon in World of Darkness

Mag and I even ended up speedrunning through Expert one of the times when Zeb wasn’t on.

I even managed to drag Naoh into our shenanigans, roping them into a run of Ataiascope to get Mag his last gunbreaker level, with Naoh on Astro. We ended up wiping a couple of times, but I had fun all the same.


Zel as a bard in midair, firing a shot at Livia in the Ataiascope

We also did a leveling roulette to get one of Wren’s alts ready for Dawntrail, along with Mag trying out Paladin now that he’s maxed out Gunbreaker. I hoped for the cursed Doma Castle and got what I asked for!

We ended up wiping once but hey, Tank adjust! I was the last one standing after all.


Chatbox:
                                    Mocho Mayucho: It'll be a stormblood dungeon then
									Magris Ashenford: Well I am 60s kekekeke
									Mocho Mayucho: Which I do not remember
									Zel Lumei: Stormblood dungeons have good music. I hope we get Doma Castle.
									Magris Ashenford: yes. vibe with music time.
									Zel Lumei: I wanna see mag suffer. I mean uh. I like doma.
Chatbox:
                                    Magris Ashenford: I'm palading! i got bubbles
									Zel Lumei YEAAAAAAAH
									Mucho Mayucho: got your wish.
									Magris Ashenford: my EYES ahhhh holy spam. How did I not see holy spirit is a combo thing.
									Zel Lumei: SOLE SURVIVOR

We like to have fun >:)


Chatbox
                                    Zel Lumei: I did have a running joke for years with an old RP group that I was actually the IRC bot and an AI that lived in another person's basement
									Mucho Mayucho: haha...AI Zel
									Zel Lumei: Well. it's true, my intelligence is artificial. my stupidity is organic though.

And I even managed to snag a Wind-Up Golbez!


Chatbox:
                                    Zel Lumei: My very own wind up zeb...
									Magris Ashenford: zoomies! hahaha
									Zeb Ya: ZELBOT GOT A ZEBLEZ
									Zel Lumei: Smolbez Description for the Wind up Golbez minion. it reads: Too small to conceive of and carry out a mass invasion of the Source...or is he?

Burning text that reads Smolbez Wind-up Golbez standign in from of a sunset

As an aside, if you wonder why I refer to the minion as Mini Zeb, well, you’ll just have to hop over to my friends’ webcomic and check them out!

Since we wiped at Amon, and I was the first to make it back to the arena, I took to opportunity to hop into Gpose to get a closer look at the most fabulous Allagan to ever live.


Amon the Undying from Ataiascope.

Have your rest, you magnificent bastard. You've been through a lot.




See you next time!
