[Russkaine]

It has been brought to my attention (parents want to see their grandkids and don't live close) that this is Easter weekend so I'll likely not be around. Let's reschedule this for next Sunday!

[Russkaine]

Just a reminder that we ARE a go for tomorrow!

[Russkaine]

Well our first week event that didn't quite end in a success is done. Thank you to those who were able to join me:
Nawkmat
Charette
Faiize
Betteroffdead
Azzeal
Synlusia
Sorensic
Zzzquil
Arknights
Fistijr
Hunnybooboo
Kenvo
Lailoken
Reanne

Sadly, 4h30m was not enough to complete all 10; we finished 7 before needing to call it for rescheduled VW.

I would ESPECIALLY like to thank Azzeal/Synlusia, Sorensic and Zzzquil for the extra effort in helping get this event prepared. There is a whole lot more legwork to these atmas than the other two zones we've completed and they helped me get the pieces together to minimize our time on Sunday.

If the LS is still keen on this event let me know otherwise I will step down and allow more room for more important events.

-Russ

[Russkaine]

Azzeal/Synlusia found the tricks for the last three atma NM's (Cuelebre, Myrmecoleon <both easy to claim> and Usurper) and completed our 10 as a three-member unit. Fun fights, all three, but each requiring different atma setups to engage successfully. I highly recommend checking each out and figuring out the winning strategy!

No Atmafest 4/14 as the wife and I will be in Vegas but Abyssea - Vunkerl is next in line if this event is given the green light to continue.

[KenvoOfShiva]

Thanks for hosting Russ! Was a good run. In the future, I think it might be best to split them into two parts since most could not stay for the entire 10. Looking forward to Aby Vunkerl in 2 weeks though!

[Synlusia]

up to you if you want to continue or not Russ.
I appreciate the prep/farming work you put into these events

[Fistijr]

Sorry I could not stay longer. The event t i me just does not work for me. During the week if you need a hand farming key items and pop items let me know and I will help however I can.

[Russkaine]

Hi all!

I apologize I don't have our list of 10 up yet but wanted to move the notice back to the most-recent list. I have already gathered all the pop items and am working on converting to KI as many as I can so we minimize group time on the event this time.

Mech wants to run old NI at 7pm then Rea leads VW at 9pm so we have a time crunch. Remember that we're interested in red proccing all the NM's we'll face. The better coordinated we are to do so, the faster we can free everyone up. Aside from the proc team, anyone and everyone is encouraged to tag along to get more atmas in their inventory. :D List with descriptions will follow as soon as I can get details researched and drafted.
