Fun with Ancient Beastcoins

After Dynamis last night, I went to Rolanberry Fields to bazaar the currency I got, and while I was there, I perused some of the other bazaars to see what I could find. One person had a stack of Ancient Beastcoins for 7300g/ea. As I’ve accumulated a decent sum of gil in the past few ... Read More

On the Campaign Skill-up Nerf

I admit it, I used the Fortifications to skill Scythe to lv50 cap for DRK since I was stupid and used GS only when leveling it for sub. That being said, I contend that SE added Dancer to enable melees to solo. What does this mean? Gear defensively (eat Tavnazian Tacos, etc), sub Dancer, get ... Read More

Shield Skill and Other Miscellany

To start off, I finally capped Shield Skill on Paladin! I tried PLD/RDM vs. Pucks in the Den of Rancor, but that ended in death, so I went back to my old friends the Steelshells as PLD/DNC. I proceeded to pull only EM or T ones and beat them down with my Warp Cudgel so ... Read More

April Version Update Reactions

I have but one word for Composure: awesome. The recast time increase is a very manageable 25%, but the duration increase is 300%. Accuracy bonus seems to be a straight 15, which is a very nice amount for free. While I was farming Enthunder II, I managed to aggro Bonze Marberry and an Iron Maiden, ... Read More

“A Crystalline Prophecy” Armor

Two words: Holy. Crap. Nuevo Coselete will be mine! I’m still torn on whether or not to pair Accuracy +10 or Fast Cast +5% with Enmity +5. Accuracy can be made up with Dorado Sushi, but having that much extra would be quite nice for Atonement spam. On the other hand, Flash going 5% faster ... Read More

Delving into Darkness

As I mentioned in my last post, my current side project is leveling Dark Knight. I continued leveling it last night and got to 48! Life Belt time! That is, assuming I actually party at my real level instead of syncing couple down. It’s quite fun to play a true DD after being a mage, ... Read More

Moving Right Along…

I’ve not made a real post in a couple weeks, and since I’m presently skilling Staff on the Fortifications, I figure I’d make a post. In the past few weeks I’ve accomplished quite a bit. Most recently, I hit Floor 100 in Nyzul and got my Vorpal Sword finally on Saturday! I immediately went out ... Read More

I’m a BG RaffleCopter Winner!

I won the Mandragora Doll! Got the email last night while I was farming an Oztroja coffer key and helping a friend work on his Sturdy Axe for King’s Justice. Much thanks to BG! 😀

PLD EXP Gear Mini-Guide!

NB: This is a work-in-progress and will likely have more additions throughout the next few days. NB2: This isn't really a "mini-guide" now that I look at it. NB3: This is merely my opinion and not canon. Please do not repost it anywhere. Paladin is a rather gear-intensive job if played right, like most other ... Read More

RDM Group 1 Ponderings

Most people who’ve leveled Red Mage in the past 2 years have heard of Avesta, often due to people half-jokingly telling them to go do what he does. I have based my merit point plan on his due to wanting to solo stuff at some point as well. If you look at his page, he ... Read More
