Ok so Tigue turned out to be a bit of an ass when it comes to being a leader. Was doing the usual slave driven NM who
ring for Ixion in Batallia Downs [S] when Campaign began, and w
hen Campaign is on, Ixion wont spawn in that zone, so I figure, heck im sub RNG as a SMN, im pretty defenceless, ill go get Allied Tags, get the free Reraise scroll from Campaign and then take off tags. I get to the Campaign and all the NMs are on top of the NPC, but me being a retard
didnt think they would aggro immediately, I popped on the tags and they did so I popped out Shiva to Sleepga. At this point Tigue zones into the spot im in and thinks I have been doing Campaign for 2 hours, so boots me very rudely from the shell. I try to explain but due to him being Japanese and a dickhole, he didnt understand and ignored me. So 
after about 30 mins of fuming, I decided that it was actually for the best, I was starting to get to that point where the game > real life again, and realised that being told what to do by a 14 year old Japanese hitler was not how I invisioned my endgame, so went back to Mid
gard and was actually welcomed with open arms. I really should have listened to the warnings about Tigue, but meh, I gave him a chance, and it turned out it was a bad idea, but carpe diem.
So im back in Midgard, within 10 mins of rejoining were popping Kirin, and it feels like home again. The best part being the Kirin was actually a really REALLY quick one. Way under an hour and we discovered the p
ower of Scholar helix spells. Effectively Kirins regen was negated for the whole fight, stacking Bio 2, BLM debuffs and Windyhelix (not actual name but cant be arsed to look it up), which really was nice and relaxing. As usual we had our RDM kiting it (Monkee) and he does an aweso
me job every time. Much better than any PLD or NIN (including me) at this fight, cause he has a really nice Magic Defence setup. He is the kind of guy who really
will look into the full usage of every piece of gear in the game, and work out sums etc. Ok anyways, we kill Kirin and get a loldrop pool consisting of Quake and Kirin's Pole! Oh well, maybe next week (I wont be there cause im going to the British Grand Prix - Won tickets for top performance 
at work).Right so an update on my NPC, its hit level 51 now! I did its Genkai 1 which is outlined in the screenshots. Me
being the muppet I am have been speaking to Luto in Upper Jeuno every time I call my NPC to see if I had enough Adventuring Bond to do Q, but it turned out she didnt give out the Quest /fume. So off I went to Mhaura, which when I got there found the questgiver was in Selbina... Anyways, picked it up, travelled the known world and got it all done after the NM fight and about 12k in teleports. The storyline for the
NPC really is interesting and very entertaining, if a little dark what with a kidnapped chi
ld often being forced into unusual camera angle related positions. So now my NPC is all strong and muscly and its getting up the levels nice and quickly. Also unlocked the level 50 BCNM fight to give your NPC the Blessed Radiance ability. Basically when you and your NPC hit low HP it will use a dev
astating move that can 1 shot alot of Tough to Incredibly Tough mobs! Cant wait for that, but havent attempted the fight on this character yet, been too pre-occupied with...... NINJA AF!My NIN has dinged level 50 and is now sporting the Nokizaru Gi, the Speed Belt and the Garrulous Ring which im
so happy about cause it all helps with Evasion and Parrying so im a little tank machine now, and speedy too. Anyways as my NIN hit 50 I decided to go and get my NIN AF2 + AF3 and coffers done. Pretty much breezed through them all, got the keys within about 15 mins of entering The Boyah
da Tree, Sea Serpent Grotto, Ifrit's Cauldron and Kuftal Tunnel. Found all the coffers without much of a headache either, nothing too annoying, had some guy pop it in front of me and then apologise, so I wasnt too fussed, it pop
ped again 15 mins later, and Gredoric helped me to farm them anyways so between mine and his SMN we ripped every mob a new asshole and got the keys fast. Im still 90% sure that avatars have some kind of Treasure Hunter too, every time
I kill something with an avatar out I get some nice drops. Just something I notice over soloing so much on SMN.Anyways, Gredoric asked us for help with his Marid ZNM too which was a hell of a lot of fun. Monkee kited, me and Gred nuked with Diabolos and Kernera sang his songs to us
all! We kited the mob around in a giant circle in Wajoam Woodlands for about 20 mins, and it died, dropping only its stupid Trophy. Were so going back for that again.
