Epic




Time for a long post, covering all the happenings of the past couple weeks. To start things off, I dinged 40, and got my shiny new Barbaroi axe. I also bought my self some shiny new gear, and now look like a decent damage dealer. The next day, I decided to get into Wings of the Goddess. Things were apparently more beautiful in the past because it is absolutely lovely. Venlo guided me to San D'Oria, where I enlisted with the Iron Rams. We also did a quest, that gave a very nice Deathstone. I gave the stone to Venlo, because the next quest give an even better Angelstone. Today, I felt too lazy to experience, so I decided to farm rams. After killing roughly 3 or 4 rams, guess who popped...none other than good old Bloodtear Baldruf. Venlo came over and tore him to shreds, but sadly no drop. After that, finished off the Angelstone quest, and had some fun watching Venlo rip things in two with Retribution. Put the stone on the AH for 200k, and logged for the day.

A Back Row Seat


Headed to Sea Serpents Grotto to experience till 39, and it was not half bad. Took quite some getting used to, and I did die a lot, but in the end it was definitely worth it. I was mostly getting Chain 2s for 150 xp to 200 xp off the Ghasts, and I think I had one chain 3. Most of my deaths were either stupidity (like when I wandered too close to a group of Ghasts when low on HP), or mis charms on my leech buddies. Probably finish off lv38 here, then head to Purgonorgo Isle for lv 39 to lv 40. Things are slowly, but steadily, starting to look up.

An Interesting Series of Events

Well today started out with some light Lantern Shield camping, but sadly no drop. Then I decided to raise WAR because a friend of mine is raising COR, and I will need WAR eventually to raise my NIN sub. Well taking WAR to 8 was weak, then I decided to go level BST. I run all the way to Eastern Altep Desert only to find that its kinda a weak or incredibly hard camp. To much effort, then I run through Korroloka Tunnel, die, Home Point, and run through again. Head over to Sea Serpent Grotto, for some leveling. I had to log about the time I reached the grotto, due to the fact that I got lost multiple times in Yuthunga Jungle. Well from what it looks like, tomorrow is going to completely own, some solid leech on Ghast or Ironshell action. Good Fun.

Rams, Bats, and Beetles


Well today started out as usual, sell my ram horns and skins, and return to killing rams. Rinse repeat. Eventually, I got a tell asking if i wanted a party in Garliage Citadel. Well after some deliberation, I run to Garliage. The experience was phenomenal. In about two hours, I almost dinged 37. No complaints, only 200 exp more.

Silence of the Rams


Well I continued my farming spree, but this time moved to the rams in La Theine Plateau. The money is good, except i have to run to San D'Oria every 3 to 5 rams to sell my drops. My friends suggest that I do a couple of gobbiebag quests, to increase my inventory so I can hold more drops. Well probably will do the second quest tomorrow, and then hit La Theine again.

Magicite


Well I finally wrapped up Mission 4-1 Magicite. It was honestly really easy. Got help from my friend Captainscurvy for Castle Oztroja, and I went Whm for the other two. The cut scenes in my opinion were really confusing, but hopefully everything will become clearer as time passes.

Up to almost 50k now, just been killing rams and selling drops to NPC. Going to kill orcs, and hopefully hit around 70k doing so.

The Emptiness Ends...and Bankruptcy Begins

Well we finally finished Promyvion-Mea today, a lot easier than what they said. We also ran the ENM Playing Host, and actually got a drop. Its only 60k, so each of us will get 12k. No complaints, seeing how i have approximately 700 gil at the moment. I also will continue to raise tanning, and make some measly gil off that. That's about it.
