| | So almost two months...surely, enough time to amass at least a few things of interest to post.
Mostly things sorta slowed down really. Had a few people take breaks for various reasons, which put a number of things on hold. Nice as it is to be in a small, informal shell...if even a few people aren't there, there's quite the impact.
Prior to that, a new XP static started up, this time I'm doing WAR. Picked up on that at 37, where I left BLU.
This was a little later on. We've not really pushed to get 6 every time, since we haven't really found the need... but this was before people went on haitus.
After that was shelved for a little, I wound up meriting a bit. Kinda went into a number of things. Few more BLM potencies, though still not done. Have BRD cat. 1 at least at 10/10, though it's 2 Lullaby, 3 Madrigal, 5 Minuet. Probably going to go back and do 5 Madrigal at some point. Nice for Colibri. NIN I finished Cat. 2 for.
Not the most impressive category I guess, but heck, why not >_> I've actually been able to play NIN for group stuff lately outside of merit, which has been nice. Save some tools potentially, and have the ability to weaken mobs to Earth. Raiton: San is also halfway decent for Nyzul on Flans and Slimes and such. Good half a WS or so worth of damage, has turned a mob my way more than once. 'sides, it's something to mess with.
Still need to finish Subtle Blow and Raiton Effect for NIN cat. 1.
Finally got around to upgrading my inventory to 70 slots...been working on better macros as well.
In addition to meriting, I started soloing DNC for subbing to NIN particularly. Disgustingly overpowered soloing job early on.
It's currently parked at 22, since other stuff picked back up. Really do need to get that up though, since it works so well as a NIN sub, and I do like messing around on that job.
While spotty, we did get some Nyzul n' such in. Stuff other people got anyway:
We also camped Ungur and got Bonedady a boomerang. Haven't yet gone back for mine, but no rush.
Sure beats out the camping of him I did way back when, with an alliance and all. Kind of easier this way, and no fussing over who gets what.
I've actually been pretty lucky with drops in the past few weeks especially.
Things I remembered to take a SS of:
Also got Ninja Tekko+1 I think since I updated last. Plus I have the items to upgrade the body, just not wanting to buy many coins since I'm not exactly rolling in gil (crosses fingers for lottery).
Now we see if Dynamis wants me to sit at 4/5 on yet another set of Relic gear. 5/5 on RDM, 4/5 on NIN, BST, BRD, and... DRK...which is 37. 2/5 BLM rounding out my collection.
Thus far, NIN has just come right after another, and people insist I lot even when I offer to pass. Little different than RDM, unless I wind up waiting two years for tekko like I did for hat n' body for that.
Almost an orange NIN.
I've now started to use day and night sets thanks to Koga feet. Maybe it'll help get me closer to Bonedady's output on NIN...best I can ever seem to do is nip at his heels on a parse. At least I have fun trying though.
More recently, people have come back from moving, "quitting", etc. Not all, but most...
So I'm back to WAR, which is fun. Kind of strange, but jobs I'm playing now are ones I figured I never would get into. Basically dual tanking/DD'ing with GAxe WARs because both Damen and I have Axe capped already from BST. Hit 51, and hence, I'm now working on AF.
Gotta say, the WAR AF storyline was, of the ones I've seen, pretty meh. I suppose it suits the set of armor in that way.
I did AF3 tonight, finally finding a reason to pull RDM/BLU out and give that a shot.
I suppose I was expecting it to be harder...never cast a single cure even. Or perhaps that's a testament to the combo working well. Never done the fight before, so I have no basis of comparison.
But, oh well
I, well, I should say, my mannequin, was very happy to get it. Finally, something new to adorn my mog house with.
