Our roster has thinned some, and we're looking for some exceptional players to fill it with!

An ideal applicant would have considerable end game experience and an understanding of the time commitment expectations of a HNM shell. At this stage in the game, many of our members have multiple jobs leveled, but we all must be cognizant that members will be required to attend on jobs that offer valued additions to the alliance. Being that any player can only operate as one job at a time, the ability to play a single job with skill and insight is more valued more then having a laundry list of possible jobs.

More specifically, Ethereal is in need of players with mage jobs (and the desire to play them). Rangers are great too. Large amounts of daily play time, quick access to all areas, and a genuine love for HNM and endgame content are all preferred. Players with multiple accounts and the ability to dual box come at a premium, though it's not a requirement. We do ask that members utilize Ventrilo, so players with this capability are preferred.

If you feel you'd be a good fit to become a member of Ethereal, please submit an application. The more detailed it is, the better, as your application will go a long way to letting us know who we're dealing with and what kind of player you are before accepting you into our ranks.

Pounded through this Ultima for a mercenary client, fight was smooth but drops were average at best. At least they didnt go to waste, grats to the client and our very own Falastor.



Cleaned house in this Dynamis-Glacier, pulling a ton of AF and two attestations (only one pictured >.>). Unfortunately, neither attestation was one we were really looking for, so we'll be needing to go back. But we'll finish our next shield once we get this thing so... yeah.



Went and killed this thing again for shits and giggles, despite what the pic below might say (it's from our previous kill cause i was too busy to take them this time) we did Elatha this time with like 12 players. A much rougher fight, but we none the less prevailed and were rewarded with our second claymore.

Had great success in the past tonite with these Fomors, finally seeing some of the coveted gear they hold. We've had a lot of fun ironing out the strategies for them and are very excited to get some more of their gear onto our ls members.

Tethra gave one of our DRK's what is probably the sexiest zerg neck piece in the game, so grats to Malikai on that one!



Ethniu put out like a cheap whore tonite, giving us both the weapon and the legs. A fucking HOT weapon skill piece for any job that can use them, and congratulations are in order to Jinroh for those. Props go out to Falastor on the knife, Ethereal's second.

Oh right, and we thought that maybe since Blood Weapon works on the Fomors in Dynamis-Glacier that maybe it'd work on them here too... so Delta and I both came DRK to try it out... yeah we were wrong, it does not work. No matter, since Ethniu still went down like Hillary Duff on her fiance.



For being the one we've killed the most thus far, Elatha finally gave us a drop in the form of Ethereal's first great sword! It went to myself, so I must give a large thanks to everyone in the linkshell!



And Buarainech is still as stingy as ever, though we applied a new strategy and it made for a MUCH smoother fight. So at least there was something good about this one, even if he dropped nothing. Hey, 3 out of 4 isnt bad, right?



We havent been down to the Nest to try Lugh in a while, so we'll probably make a stop over there on our next fomor adventure.

Been a while since we caught one of these beasts, and we were pretty happy with the drops, too. Finally completed a Black Belt for Neji, one of our players who has been waiting a long time for that tongue!



It seems like every time we go up to do Kirin, I forget to take pictures. Maybe it's cause the fight lasts like 45 seconds... or maybe it's because the last two times we've done Kirin I seem to get hit with Deadly Hold for like 2k dmg right as I hit Souleater and end up dead. I think I need merits in Muted Soul >.> lolol

Either way, this is a pic from a different Kirin (with our drops shopped in there =P) that we crushed with our friends in Luna Knights. Fought it the old school way, which was a nostalgic change of pace from Ethereal's standard zerg tactic. I don't remember what they got, but the kirin we zerged a few hours before dropped W.legs and a D.body. Grats to Dathus on getting places 12% faster, and Gadanae on the Shura togi.

Plowed through our third Odin kill with only 19 players, got basically exactly what we were lookin for when the end came. Double E.bodies, YEAH! Grats to Coragem and Malikai on those, Rurcipper on the V.fork, and Falastor on the Hadean cuffs.

Got enough mules that we can literally do Odin every 4th Einherjar, so many more of these are coming.



Been a while since we fought our favorite pony, so we were a little rusty. Still finished taking it down in a reasonable time, though.



Serket showed his face as well, and gave us another Tathlum.
