Announcements..  announcements..  *flips through notes*

Ah, first off, congratulations to Ikethegreat, Zerila, and myself for finishing Black Belt!

It's amazing how some things that used to be exceedingly difficult to obtain in the past can be done with a small group of friends now.

Now, concerning relic+2 trials.

To augment relic+2 pieces, you have to gain 20000 exp in a Dynamis zone where the base piece drops.  For example, to augment Duelist's Chapeau +2, you have to fight in Xarcabard or Tavnazia.  Note that in order to store relic+2 pieces (using Storage Slip 13) you must augment them.  Slightly annoying.  Anyways, we might organize some Dyna exp farming to help people do augments.

First, as a reminder about stratum abyssites:

• You don't actually need to possess one to do a battle.  You'll still get atmacites and rewards, as long as you use Voidstones.
• To upgrade an abyssite, you must defeat every Notorious Master the abyssite can spawn while in possession of it.  For example, to change jade stratum abyssite III to IV, you need to defeat Lord Asag and Akupara while you have III.
• To be able to get the white stratum abyssite (Jeuno), the following requirements must be met:
  
  • You must have Indigo, Crimson, and Jade Abyssites at level IV.
  • You must beat Hahava, Celaeno, and Voidwrought for their titles.
  • You must have completed Cait Sith WotG mission (mission 3).
  • You must have entered Walk of Echoes from Xarcabard [ S ].
• To get ashen stratum abyssite (Zilart), you need to visit NPCs in Norg, Kazham, and Rabao.

Additionally, I'm going to run a poll checking what Dynamis zones people need wins for.  It's possible we may try to get some people access to advanced zones sometime.

On Saturday we'll probably be doing Voidwatch, so be ready for that.

Also, we may be doing runs for Voracious Violet and Razed Ruins atmas for people sometime soon, so if you need them you might be able to pick them up.

If you have any Bukhis pop sets, I'm interested in the wings, by the way!

And finally, the next chapter of the Laliho saga will be up in a few days, been distracted by holidays and haven't felt like working on it.  Still have time to submit your vote on the discussion thread.

Happy New Year to you all!

I'm not sure of it was mentioned, but congrats to Ariamo and Dragonmstknight on Gjallarhorn and Gungnir!

I'll try to put up some more front page notices (according to the poll, seems like that's what people want.)

And now, I leave you with a scary demonstration of power:

Yes, I know, most pointless title ever.  Couldn't think of anything better.

There's a few things I'd like to arrange soon.  First, I have most god pops in sky, would be nice to do a Kirin run.  Second, several people need Black Belt items so maybe some Ks99s?  Could even do the NQ ground kings after and try to get HQ pops.

Still have Voidwatch hovering over our heads but we'd need more people to do it as an LS.

Still have Abyssea things on the agenda, as well as Salvage.  Some people still need to climb Nyzul still as well.

So much to do, so little time.
