While Pasifika has had her Ballista licence for a while now, she hasn't actually participated in ballista at any point. She has watched Phucrabiont take part in a couple, however, and she went along to cheer Phu on in one more today.Hmmm... Pasifika might be a little squeamish if she was pitted agains other adventurers, so she'd probably do very poorly in Ballista... ^^; The participants in the match she watched didn't hold back, though. Pasifika witnessed couple of brief one-on-one fights, for example RDM vs RDM and RDM vs NIN, but rarely there was time for such concentration, and most of the time it seemed to be just one big free-for-all - or a certain RDM vs the world. ^^;
There were very impressive displays of abilities and skills for Pasifika to admire. Oooh, what a magnificent tornado! :D But... guess who's inside... ^^; That cool looking fire must really burn, too, and the Tarutaru is rushing in for a Headbutt - and we know haw hard taru BLU can Headbutt! x)Although in the end Windurst won, Phucrabiont did give the opponents their fair share during the match.
It all looked hopelessly confusing to Pasifika, but perhaps she'll be able to participate herself one day and see what it's really like. 
Hopefully the opponents won't be too hard... ^^; This time one of the participants was obviously a Ballista veteran, and it was a relief to see him on Phu's side. He did look scary anyway, dual-wielding two big swords...
Yeah, hold him back for a moment to give the other side a chance!

On a completely different note, Pasifika's little chocobo chick SnowyForest has grown fast. Apparently she didn't take the hint embedded in her name, because instead of turning green, she seems to be taking on a red hue... o_O;Well, she's a cute young chocobo all the same, and not completely dumb, either. She loves to chirp along to the music Pulonono has been playing for her. It's such a shame there's no way to take a chocobo for a walk in Ru'lude Gardens - SnowyForest would love it... x)
But wait, Pulonono says she likes to chirp along, but doesn't mention if she's any good at it... It may be best to let little SnowyForest chirp in the relative privacy of the chocobo stables for now... ;D

Oh wow, it looks so different to see these screenshots from you, since we don't see outsiders at all in the match itself... o_o Although at some times I think I saw you as a blue dot on the compass, because I would freak out and spin the camera to see who was coming to kill me now (XD) but there was no one in sight. :O
And w00t, Someguy was PLD/NIN? lmao, there's hardly enough time to look at your opponents, much less think about your own side. x) To put it bluntly, I only look whether the opposing member is a) a mage b) ninja or c) other melee x) I should probably make a macro set for Ballista one of these days, one without equipment changes since players get penalized by equipment changes... /sigh
It is advisable to concentrate on one enemy at a time, but the more participants, the more chaotic it becomes... ^^; Basically you just do your job as you would in an exp party - for me that would be enfeebling and supporting the other members, and focus on getting the enemy down fast. x)
Oh yes, your screenshots are here: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v40/vinya/ffxi/
There's some other new shots too... I hope your screenshot fever isn't contagious... XD;;
Sorry if I spooked you... I felt a bit like a stalker at times, because I knew you (or other participants) couldn't see me sneaking around there... ^^; Well, I wasn't the only spectator, and I did 'see' quite a few invisible players there as well... some of them were probably stalking you, too. x)
Someguy was wearing something else at first, I have pretty certainly identified the body part as Sipahi Jawshan... It looked cool, too, but Elvaan PLD with two swords was definitely impressive. O_O I won't be entering a Ballista match against San d'Oria anytime soon... ^^; (Hmm... Galka... nope, not Bastok, either. x)
Oooh, screenshots! {Thank you.} It seems you have been infected a bit, at least... x) Oh, and I hope you can clear that misunderstanding with Wolfgang quickly... o_o;
