Prayers for Eorzea

[HiranaiVashai]

It's an interesting theory, and I do think SE is trying to chase us out of Ul Dah now because the mobs take hours on end to defeat. The last thing we had to do after defeating the normal raven was indeed to pray, and then there's the gloomy version of the track answers. Aside of the mixed part of the 2 quires, I know the lyrics pretty much by heart. Maybe those that were kept in are some hints on what we might be able to do.

To all of my children, in whom life flows abundant.
To all of my children, to whom death hath passed it's judgment.
The soul yearns for honor, and the flesh the hereafter.
Look to those who walked before, to lead those who walk after.

Shining is the land's light of justice, ever flows the land's well of purpose.
Walk free, walk free, walk free, believe.
The land is alive, so believe.

Now open your eyes, while our plight is repeated.
Still deaf to our cries, lost in hope we lie defeated.
Our souls have been torn, and our bodies forsaken.
Bearing sins of the past, for our future is taken.

War, born of strife, these trials dissuade us not.
Words, without sound, these lies betray our thoughts.
Mired, by a plague of doubtful and cheap lore.
Judgment binds all we hold, to a memory of scorn.
Tell us why, given life, we are meant to die. Help us in our cry.

We witness, we suffer, we borrow, we reason.
We follow, we struggle, we wander, we whisper.
We listen, we shoulder, we addle, we weather.
Please answer, you answer me, answer together.

Thy life is a riddle, to bare rapture and sorrow.
To listen, to suffer, to entrust onto tomorrow.
In one fleeting moment, from the land doth life flow.
Yes in one fleeting moment, for a new leaf doth grow.
In the same fleeting moment, thou must live, die and know.

These are all the lyrics that are still present. And I made those that refer something to pairs bold.
Just adding an idea of what else might be there.

We need to make this the priority now... now just stand around defending Uldah from mobs that we can't kill! Couldn't get a full party to try praying at one stone last night.... starting an LS for this is a good idea though.

Good that some of you have caught on to this (I in turn caught on from someone else's post).

I'd just go for 12 full parties of 8 (that's 96 adventurers) praying at all 12 shrines simultaneously...
anyone on the Japanese forum threads already talking/doing this with some degree of success?

[Punainen]

Just an idea but maybe the rings we obtained from the prayers quest may link to these current event in some way or form D:
Also, has anyone else encounter the Seige Goobue? >.<" almost immortal beings D:

We have "Number 126" Golems in Sargatanas... THOSE are pretty much immortal. We were throwing WARs at it to spam vengeance over and over and it took 2 hours to get it to about 86%, before some griefer kited it away and made it regen.

I went back to pray at my own dietys stone....

[Aysun]

Another method we are going to try once we have more support: taking a full pt (or 2 or 3..) to each stone in order of Living on a Prayer and praying together.

I support this option if it hasn't been done already. I wanted to do this last night but I couldn't remember the order or locations of the stones.

I'm sure there's a post on Eorzeapedia detailing the quest.

If anyone on Balmung wants to join the "Prayers for Eorzea" LS I, as well as many others, can invite.

I say we should try Aysun's attempt (Full Party in order of Living on a Prayer) tomorrow 11/03/2012 @ 3PM PDT (4MDT, 5CDT, 6EDT) or until available. I'll post here presenting any new findings.

That should be easy enough to manage. To be safe, all members involved should have their deity's ring equipped and create a diverse party with a representative from at least one of each job. Not that it's likely to matter but it's worth a shot.

I'm checking them out now and so far Althyk and Azeyma i have found with imperial troops guarding them

[Holy_Dragoon]

Oschon is guarded as well.

I did notice that all the stones seemed to have the song Dalumud Answers playing @ them. In Limsa when I prayed to my god there, it actually started for me... it was weird cause the limsa music was playing then BAM silence... followed by the rumbling. When we formed Prayers for Eorzea we tried getting people at all the spots however, it proved difficult. I think forming parties of 8 people with the same god and having them pray at all 13 stones simultaniously....might be worth an option... (when we originally started it was because I found one of the shrines was occupied with about 30 praying players and the other uldahn shrine was empty.Though knowing Soken, he's probably just having us pray so we can hear that song play for us in the cities and be haunted...

Add Menphina to that list ..that one even has a H-1 with it's elite crew


edit: I didn't know there were runes you could get from faction leves with the symbols of the 12
