OK, so many of you may know me from my woes as a SMN... well, i've decided to stop leveling SMN. It's too stressful. I find BRD to be quite fun though... especially since I can make the parties do so much better than I could as SMN! But that's for another topic.

I am looking for, preferably, 5 people of level 60+ to help me get the item required for a Star Necklace. People who do not want the necklace, or already have it are preferred. The drop rate is pretty low, and I don't wanna be out there or keep people out there to get depressed TOO long y'know? However if others need it, free lotting I guess.

I would like at least ONE THF for this. Tank, I dun care. DD's, don't matter as long as no one dies.

If you wanna help, post here or send a /tell in game sometime! My BRD is 5k to level 58, and i'd like to have it when I ding 59.

Thanks for reading! ^^

Getting to the spot, is only a minor annoyance.

Pulling the mobs is fairly simple, and best done with two pullers, because you have to run by so much aggro stuff. My group used two mages, myself and another. "Bind or Sleep" pulling is very effective. One mage casts Bind on the target, and the other immediately puts Sneak back up on them. Then haul tail back to the camp.

There is one spider that pops near the camp, that must be killed everytime it pops, or you'll likely wind up having to deal with it, at a very bad time. Also, Every now and then, that stupid Sabotender Bailerina is hanging out in the first room, hogging the spawn slot ><. It's a REALLY MEAN SONOFA, so I'd avoid it, unless you got some serious firepower!

Star Spinel drops are kinda chaotic. We went one time for over 3 hours and only got one drop. Another night we got 3 in an hour and a half, with a drop on the very first one.


Anyway, if you get a group assembled, send Kestra a /tell. If I'm not busy I'll go along, since I can still skill up, on those little prickly jerks.

If you have THF15 or if you can get a THF to come along I can kill those lil fockers for you. Just let me know I am usually sitting around LFG as PLD for hours on end with nothing to do anyway

:D
