Was thinking back to my CoP days. Waiting a whole week for my CoP linkshell to gather; sometimes hours on end just for one or two people to show up (since they were the required jobs and/or had enough know-how), then proceed to the dungeon in an orderly fashion (yeah right). Once inside listen to LS leader(s) to get to a specific point (nope) and then fight the NM for the mission.
Truth to be told, I don't miss those moments much. But even when the parties were absolute garbage, there was something fun about it. It's a bit weird to explain.

And after that little monologue, have a wonderful CoP NM to think back to:



You're welcome~

Probably Ullikummi before it was poppable, back when Byakko's Haidate were serious business and there were 150 people in the room to claim it, including rmt and claim bots.

I barely remember beating him post cap removal, but I believe it involved a sacrifice to pull the rest of the room.

I have another one on this list:



Eff mimics in general, but this heifer wasn't letting me stay alive for nothing. Couldn't even move out of the damn way.

I like them. They are always there to teach people that greed is one of the seven deadly sins.

I was talking to my brother who has since quit the game because it was consuming his life as he put it lol.... We both agree that the best time we have had in this game was doing cop missions. For all the reasons you mentioned. COP was a pain in the arse, but it was so rewarding and getting my rajas ring was one of the biggest accomplishments I have had in a game. I never cared for HNM hunting since it was more about bots/luck than skill. But putting together a COP group and leading them 2 a clear felt good. The feeling that everyone in my group was saying HE'LL YA after a clear.

Nothing has the same value anymore.... we did 18 man yorica delve last night and we were 1/2 on the first run I started to realize that the nm wasn't hard at all. The problem was that some people just suck. Like the puller linking a ton of mobs and instead of dying like a man, drags them all to the mages. DD that full time the same gear. And players who don't listen to basic strategy. It's on easy mode now it's lazy mode.

Nue.
15~20% drop my ***. It took me 93 kills across 2 different characters, every time with TH1, to get this thing to drop. Morbolger was easier by miles, even when its respawn was 21-24 hours.

Id rather camp leaping lizzy another 21 times than do a sky hnm or ground king again.

That's being said I stopped playing when 80cap was released so im old school. leaping lizzy and vaplkurm emperor were cruel to me but i hated farming against other linkshells. Sky was the worse..screw 1000 byakko in a row and everybody dieing on the way there and building tp before we fight and me being the only mage not afk. Also screw fighting over despot and that golem dude. Also mega hate for 3 hours wasted on ground kings.

Otherwise I was redmage so mega FU to charby.

Also that one mamet fight and airship but then again the accomplishment for those felt good.

So I started on voidwatch recently (yup I'm late to the party; but it's how it is).

Yay a new enemy I never fought before!

Snoll Tzar.

My COP group was largely a mage heavy group depending on being able to chip down things with my friend Onimenokyo acting as the one person back in that day with enough jobs to reasonably change to suit the occasion.

And then we get to Snoll, a zerg battle in an era where zerging wasn't a thing. With a THF on board and 3 RDMs, the prospect of rushing this mob down before it exploded was an exercise in over 35 wipes + refarming salts.

Then SE goes on the record saying it wasn't tested before release........*headdesk*

Almost forgot about the Snoll. My LS group won in 3 tries so I guess I should consider myself lucky.

You died to Hahava in 20 seconds? That's.....pretty bad, considering many, if not all jobs, can solo him at this point.

Pre-nerf. Fk you and your seemingly open-ended spawn window. Camped this NM for 43hrs+ before it popped, only to have a JP claim and not invite me, for the kill on the Armageddon magian trial.
