That YES!!!! Finally!! moment

Mine happened last night when I finally got the Hive bow to drop. Been wanting it for a few months now and I used to run that dungeon daily hoping it would drop. When I got enough hive coffers I bought the PLD weps and still hoped it would drop. Eventually I gave up because of the time it took to get and hated the grind. Tonite I queued up got in excellent group we got it done in 20 minutes!! and boom there was the drop YES!!!! Finally!! Love my new bow!!
Did you have a similar moment when it just finally happened?

I had my Sephirot weapon drop the day after I bought it.

Back in the day when final coil were released
I was Desperate to finish my relic as Blm and that took forever and thought i wouldn't have weapon to go in T10
First down of T9
Blm staff

I cried

Grinded for my Padjal WHM ilvl235 weapon.......I was tired of Deep Dungeon after that. :/ I'd be more excited if I got a new mount since weapons are easily replacable but grats on your weapon dude. I think the Hive weapons looked the best when Bismarck EX and Ravana Ex was all the rage.

I'm card collector and I had to run The Vault 80+ times for card to drop (usually they drop in 20-30 runs). That was my "Oh god, finally!" moment. Never going to touch it again.

Sep ex was telling you, "be patient my son/daughter." Since you didn't listen to it, it slapped your face was gifting you the items you bought lol xD. -RNG is a pain-

Mine was finding a group in duty finder who could actually finish "The Final Steps of Faith"

I know that sounds silly...but as a Healer see DPS not stack on Ank Mohrn for about 20 consecutive fights, wears one soul away

I had that moment when I finally cleared Titan extreme way back in the day with the help of my FC buddies. Also had a mild euphoria moment when I got my Fenrir mount last week.

I will have the moment again when I finally, finally beat Thordan extreme, Sephirot Extreme and Niddhogg Extreme since finding a party that can clear 3 weeks and beyond after release is nigh impossible.

I am also looking forward to finishing the Anima before 3.45. Only one way to get Umbrite? Seriously, Dev. team? Slow and steady I guess.

Also looking forward to getting Kirin next expansion. My luck is so bad I am going to wait until I can solo those primal fights. Yes, my luck is that bad.

I love those moments in this game, it's what keeps me playing.

Last March I suddenly became interested in the idea of owning a house in game. I spent a whole day going from The Goblet to the The Mists to Lav Beds, checking out every single plot to see which I liked best. The goal was basically to find my ideal plot so that I could snatch it up as soon as 3.3 went live. Some hours later my friend sends me a message "A house just opened up in Lav Beds" Thought she was joking so I took my sweet time getting there. Showed up some 10 minutes later and realized she was telling the truth, I managed to snatch it up just as another player showed up.

It wasn't my preferred plot, but its close to the summoning bell/marketboard/aetheryte. I've fallen in love with it now so I dont think I'll be getting rid of it any time soon.

Got my Ramuh mount yesterday. Granted I haven't tried much since 3.x and unsync became a thing, but I did a lot back in 2.3-2.55. Just Ifrit left, then onto the remaining birbs.

Recast Time Reset Upon Wipe
When challenging raids and trials, timers will now be reset upon the party being wiped out.

Okay okay. That may be slightly cheating the topic. But we DID spend three years in the trenches waiting for this news.

Recently beating Thordan Ex with my content static. We're a great group, but we're all busy adults and we can only meet one hour per week. It took us four or five sessions to win, but because of RL events those were spread over maybe two or 2.5 months. Pretty satisfying when we won, though, although kind of crappy that this content is so difficult for hard-working players to get through.

Uh.... the day I finally caught Namitaro for the Feast of Famine quest. It took me months, hundreds, if not over a thousand casts. I remember literally gasping IRL as I saw my little avatar stand up to pull in her catch, holding my breath until I saw that I had actually caught him!

#casual4life

I finally got the mats I needed for the Bismark Bow - (the one that glows). It's beautiful and I've always wanted it but goes for about 8 mil on my server. I feel like I'm complete now. I freaked out when the person making it was like I'll go for HQ and then froze for like a minute. I was like, OH GOD PLEASE DON'T BREAK IT. But it worked out. haha. I love it. =)

I hear ya!! Same here I can never enjoy end game to the fullest because of time limitations and how long it takes to find a good party, let alone clear content like Thordan EX etc. My one big Yes moment will be the day I eventually clear Thormarch(?) EX

best YES!!!! Finally!! moment for me was holding the Ironworks Fishing Rod in my hand, back in 2.4, after one month of fishing all the big fish in the game.

My "finally!" moment is non combat related. My most recent one was finally successfully crossing Thavnairian onion seeds after about 7 weeks of inter-crossing this with that. I should also mention that I leveled my gatherers not only for my crafters, but for gardening as well and had my eyes on the seeds during the whole time. So the wait for the seeds has actually been around 2 months, and I finally have a full bed growing. All from scratch and not one gil was spent other than on krakka root seeds, which are only purchasable.

Got my Barreleye Fish before 2 Days after an half of an Year and was like.... "CURSE YOUUUUU".

The same goes for Endoceras, I got that one right before 10 Minutes and just Facepalmed due of RNG

After having failed at ThEX dozens of times back when it first came out, I was bored a couple nights ago on my tank alt and ran it in the DF for some fun. The first group--with two first timers, no less!--cleared it on our second run. It was magical T_T

Finally getting my drop from Copperbell Mines HM for the Zodiac step after 40+ attempts.

For me, it would be getting the PvP mounts.

It would be ADS mount since for 2 years I didn't get it till now.

Mine was when two people who were obviously perfect for each other finally got married. :p

When I spent 3 months trying to clear Titan EX and finally, FINALLY did it \o/
