Final Fantasy XI

PLD hit 75 on January 30. Today I acquired the last piece of Relic Armor. 6 months is pretty fast for that, heh. Now to hope I can get the Valor Cape in less time than nearly 2 years like a friend of mine had to wait.

Since the last update, my DRK is now 62, hitting that last night. Unfortunately, thanks to Level Sync, I didn’t get Guillotine until last night’s party, and I think I’m in love, lol. As soon as I hit 200 skill, when I had TP I threw on Souleater and Last Resort and tossed out one ... Read More

Wow, the sky linkshell continues to rock! We felled our first Kirin on Tuesday, which is astounding. But, on to more important things… Wednesday’s Dynamis-Valkurm gave up a Bard’s Roundlet -1, and as I had gotten the NQ version the San d’Oria the week before, I decided to pay for it. Almost immediately after the ... Read More

With the announcement that Final Fantasy XIV is to be another online game, the major question among FFXI players is “Do I leave all the work behind and move on to the new game?” I am certain that a lot of forum posts will occur when the new game comes out that such-and-such LS leader ... Read More

Monday’s holiday saw myself and some friends exping, quite literally, all day. I took that opportunity to burn through my remaining anniversary ring charges as Bard to get even closer to 75. By the time we broke around 6pm, after nearly 7 hours of my crazy pulling, I was within about 8k of 75. Upon ... Read More

First off, Sunday’s Dynamis-Xarcabard yet again failed to put out a Valor Surcoat for me. I am a sad panda. Also our attempt to zerg the last ACP fight failed when my chainspell stun misfired. Now need to find a group for that in the not too distant future. Beyond that, I managed to finish ... Read More

I really should make it a point to update this at least once per week. Trying slightly to improve on that. First off, last Saturday’s Salvage run netted me some new shinies. I am now 4/15 on Ares! Deimos’s Leggings and Phobos’s Cuisses dropped, and I won the lot on both. Now I just need ... Read More

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

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

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
