Look who has returned. My journal! Oh I have neglected you so much.

However, I have returned, and thus will continue on with my journal again. . . 9 months later.

Lately! I have been doing multiple events of Salvage, Limbus, and Moblin Maze Mongers (MMM). Sounds pretty normal, no? Well, I wouldn't say normal, but the past 6 35 farming runs my salvage LS (PlanetZebes) has had, a 35 has literally dropped every time. I find this shocking because this has never happened before. Our luck streak suddenly hit a peak!

Oddly enough I have came across one of those pieces, although fairly useless to me, I take it in great gratitude. This piece being the Marduk dastanas' 35 piece. Among other prizes, my LS has come across so many pieces, that it's hard exactly to name them all.

As a late achievement of some sort since coming back to the game, I am also now 4/5 on Usukane gear. Of course, I'm missing the fabled Usukane Haramaki 35 piece. Currently 0/9, I see this taking a considerate amount of time before I actually obtain it. Nevertheless! The shell has not given up, and we will see that turtle drop a Hikazu Hara-ate one day.

On to other news. My HNM Shell WoopaTroopas is still doing finer than ever. Dark Ixion is now our official bitch, and claiming is something we've become successful in lately. Edit: As of now, we just killed Nidhogg and I got Neptunal Abjuration: Legs. However, my most wanted desire from Nidhogg was Earthen Abjuration: Body to drop for Nanolino, who has been haunting Nidhogg for months for his abjuration.

Future goals as of now:

• Hikazu Hara-ate
• Aquarian Abjuration: Body
• Duelist's Chapeau
• Morrigan's gear
• Finishing Paladin

I think that's what I can focus on at the moment. This post is just to quickie to upstart my journal again.

However, I doubt people still read these things.

well i got a job so i cant play as much..

however, thanks to sofi, my thf is now 69! almost done, but very underskilled lol.

also finished skadi feet and got homam legs for it. badass.

and btw, its called H O M A M, not fucking homan. also, eu's need to know that you can just say usu feet, rather than usu feetS. its already plural. . . and somewhen isnt a fucking word retards.

sorry, been getting constant doses of stupid in ls lately

Yes, I decided to redo DM recently. I became to the conclusion that Suppanomimi is just not as useful as it once was before the TP floor nerf. That and I NEVER play Ninja like I used to. So I decided to drop it, request on Full Moon with the Light Ore (Which looks fantastic, btw), and do the DM mission.



A friend of mine organized the run and decided to do it in a Manaburn fashion. Surprisingly though, we wiped a couple times due to some unfortunate distances from them to cast, and somebody casted Thunder III instead of Thundaga III xD. After a couple wipes, we exited the first run, losing the pentasphere. Gathering and discussing wtf just happened, we gathered up again, and used another pop.

This time it seemed as if everyone sorta got pro like right away, and we blew it up in 5 minutes. So after all was said and done (and nearly a headache over), I decided to pick this beast:




Now I really want to get my Justice torque~! Being 1st for it for almost 5 months is getting a little annoying!!! So I might farm some Ghrah Chips, Deed of Mod's and try to get something going when I have time. I'd like to pop 4-5 of these bastards to get one D:


As for other things, after doing multiple Kirins for months now burning them out, I happened to get WLegs! The problem however, was how I got to buy them. I had about 1.5M no problem at first, and was trying to get the -1 for a bit. So I tried 1M, no good, 1.1M, no good, so I try again for 1.15M, and I got them! . . . but the problem was I moved up slightly and didn't notice it, getting the NQ Cursed Cuisses >.>; Thanks to a good friend, he ended up buying the -1 for me til I can pay him back. I gave the NQ cuisses back to the person I bought them from, but have yet to receive a word about getting gil back (Greedy fucker). After a couple days of soloing things with RDM like 10000x easier, I was able to pay him back almost right away. I was surprised I could make 1.15M that easily! And why Blood cuisses? Well... not only for the White box, but the people in the Kirin burns pretty much all get Blood cuisses, and I wanted to match! :D here they are:



In salvage, I also finished a friend's pair of Skadi's Chausses. Totally excited for him :D Only problem was, during the run, the HNMLS of mine happened to claim Nidhogg, and the #1 person for Abody wasn't there, and I'm #2.... yeah, I lost Abody over Salvage Lol. But hey, I helped a friend out finish one of the best pieces for his THF, so I'm content with that, Abody will come again you know? :)

So thats about it, I've started to really take in on RDM soloing, but I feel I need Duelist's chapeau to really be comfortable trying bigger things. So far its just been the easy Despot for some gil, and some other things just to have fun with. To my surprise I was able to solo the DRG Draketrader Zlodgodd in La Vaule (S)! It takes a fair amount of skill to pull it and kite it successfully, but I pulled it off and am very happy with Wlegs cause of that xD. No Skystrider drop though, but it is 1/8 on boxes ;) Need to finish a few more orc helms!!


Anyway, peace! Time for boring ass math.

After constant efforts of killing mobs in La Vaule (S), I finally received one of these!



I admit it looks very nice in game, some people claim its ugly, but by far (like the Ace's helm), I love the look of it.

I have also been toying a little with Blue Mage, got it to lv12, and just finished all spells until that point. When I have time from Events I would love to work on it some more, the job is pretty fun!

From SCNMing, we have also picked up a bit of gil, Llwyd's Clogs being 900k, Skystrider being 500k, and Bandolero's Scarf being 300k, was a nice chunk for only 4-5 of us. As Haubergeon +1's are dropping in price, I may have enough to finally get one and make my Samurai almost as valued as my Monk. I am missing only a few key pieces, like Haub +1, JTorque, Triumph Ring, and Bushi, but I should work on em soon.

For now I would like to work on my PUP duo with Miry, and keep Limbus/Salvage going strong.

Hopefully Saturday I get some Homam Cosciales for my THF! :D

Wowzers. Been a very long time since I've updated. But having no PC to really do so is tough, and PSP likes to limit all of what you can do. ; ;

Anyway, since I'm using the Family PC to type this, there's been a couple new things.

Some upcoming jobs that I talked about consistently are finally moving. THF and PUP. Now people always laugh when I talk about PUP, but everytime I exp it, it somehow surprises people with the damage I pull off. I wish I could SS an example, but I simply can't right now ; ; All I know is, I love PUP. It takes skill, and thats why I enjoy it. As for THF, it's 62 now. I guess that shows how much I enjoy that job as well :) It's a little on hold however, due to the constant events flowing my way non-stop, but it has done me some good. I've been duoing PUP with Miry as well, definitely a key reason I like leveling it. :)

I started my own Limbus shell for strictly Homam. It's going well so far, we've killed 2 Proto-Omega's, one containing some Homam Cosciales (Legs) ! It's exciting to get people some cool stuff. I have to run that soon actually.

Salvage, the shell is going well in my opinion. We're really starting to expand and getting more and more 35's to finally drop. Last week, we saw our first Macha's coat after at least a year? Crazy. Shit. But I'm glad Kaysa got it, he's been waiting forever. Also, despite the fact they were free lot, I got a pair of these about 3 months ago:



Totally hawt. Now I just need the 25, still. But since THF is 62 and the only job that can equip this, I've been chill about it. I'm more after Ship's (Shiu, nickname etc.) Skadi cuirie, but that bastard bird just won't pop. And who knows, if I get a 35 body too, I'll have that as well xD My only complication for Salvage bodies is gil. Sitting at 1.4M and hoping to purchase the useless Blood Cuisses once Kirin puts out, its going to take awhile for me to afford 2-3 salvage bodies. I say 2-3 because I reallllly have been saving over 500 points just for Usukane Haramaki (F U Turtle), and I really want Morri robe as well since I have no Dalmatica... yet. It'll come soon I hope, the Haramaki of course, because I just want to finish the 35's we've gotten, and then spam a lil bit of turtle. I think I deserve it after all the shit I've been getting my members. xD

As for HNM, ML is back to the name of WoopaTroopas. I always loved that name. Admittfully though, the shell has been... odd. It's been slower and NA periods have been growing less. So I've been voting Yes on every NA trial/full member because it gets boring in the shell like crazy at night. I put on my Salvage shell just to look cooler because its a Clam and does the same thing at night times as WT, nothing. But, we have been getting some King ABJ, and I'm hoping to smash into the possibility of finally getting a Dalmatica. I'm 2nd for it, but I figure if I just keep going, I'll get it soon enough. Maybe I'll get Crimson Cuisses and a Cursed Dalmatica in that case, lol.

Anyway, not much being done, just finishing the 35's with the 3-4/wk runs we go (Yes, its taking forever ;;), and doing Limbus. I've also changed Dyna shells to WarmApplePie. Why? Because OpenDoor pissed me off after that last Dyna-Bastok, and I got fed up of watching people who will never finish a relic sponsor shit. So hopefully I can start sponsoring some runs after the next month or so of building the bank up with gil. Would be nice to finish Spharai by the end of this year.

That's all for now, just hate not posting after a long period of time.

My main sights for an item is totally this though:





Now if only the 35's would drop for once.....

^^; Take care!

Sooo yeah. No time to post much, laptop busted means I can't really do much of anything for SS's.

But, I found a 360 to play on, so there's something at least. However, it is COMPLETELY lamer than the PC version. No extended macros and a lame UI is extremely annoying to see. I do get better graphics at least.

To further update, I recently got RDM75! It's actually way more fun than people say. I've been playing the job extensively for a bit now, haven't found it boring. Although I do like to solo, so that could be it. Now a few things needed are Wlegs, RDM relic, finish those merits, Morrigan's, and some Dalmatica lovin's.

With my playtime and school however, this may take quite awhile. So I'll just solo some simple things for gil until I can get my hands on stuff, that way I'll have some gil to mess around with.

Spharai is put a little bit on hold due to school, but because I'm farming gil, it's.. sort of.. not? lol. We'll see how it goes, depending on this week I may decide whether or not I can keep doing Dynamis on Sundays, since MTWTH are all school T_T.

Other than that, salvage has been somewhat rewarding a little. Got a few members some 35's, like another Usu head (We're like 3/25 on that, LOL), and another 35 Skadi feet (free lot ftw, maybe i'll get the next lol).

As for future jobs, since RDM is done, I can now do my duo for PUP with miry and her COR. We started the other night doing Fields of Valor with our LV33's, and it's incredibly fun actually. While we don't get the big xp and grind our way to 75 asap, I find it more about the fun and spending time with her. So it's totally worth it. Although I may have an idea for LV37-42, the concept of these two jobs are amazing with its duo capabilities. I'd say we easily passed the xp rate of a normal xp pt in Crawler's nest, actually.

With the following update, I'm pretty excited to see that more Fields of Valor things are going to be added. The only drawback to this however, is that I've been running a bit low on money. So with this, I've been looking for a job so I can keep up on things and get more stuff for school. This obviously means less play time, but RL > FFXI you know? Also I'd like to buy a desktop PC, because 360 sucks and I want one for schoolwork. I don't want to get another laptop because... well, I never took mine much anywhere except the library, in which I didn't use much anyways. So I have a Flash drive for that.

As for SFIV, as I posted before, the game is simply amazing. I've done a couple tournaments for it now and won a couple, while losing one due to some stupid rule. If you have a ps3 and sf4, let me know, because I play it a lot, and I don't lose often ;) Dhalsim ftw! It's definitely my favorite game at the moment, and something I always practice with all the characters (Except C.Viper, she has some bad character design, imo).

Anyway, just a small update. But yeah, hoping to get more stuff for my jobs, and more gil to accomodate what I'd like to get. Maybe I can get some hookups from my DynaLS on sponsoring while not there, idk.

my pc broke~ so i can't play for a bit...

i also lost all my pics that i got recently with my new stuff...

I'll try to find a pretty way to show what i've gotten lately though :D

Finally after about 6-7 months of no drop we finally got one! And I got eet~! :D

So now NIN relic is practically finished, I just need head and legs to finish the set, good thing they're not that important ;D



Now my NIN is super sexy~ moar pics after this run! I'll edit, etc.

rawr~

Thanks to Shiu & Gavial~ I got this nifty thing!




We spammed that run I admit, but totally worth it. Now my haste build for MNK is 26% in said areas, and my SAM's haste is 22% (This definitely can be higher with dusk gloves+1, and vbelt). Gotta say I noticed a difference with it. Gladly my accuracy isn't too hurt due to the marinara pizza +1 I use as well. :D

Finished Morrigan's slops and Usukane somen for a couple friends too. Huge grats to them, it was one hell of a ride to finish XD

Look what I got MAN! Thanks to a good friend, I finally got one of these things. Now I can play SAM and not feel like crap with ol' blue! Although I still want so much more things for SAM ; ;


So now SAM TP needs Haub+1, PCC/Jtorque(1st for Jtorque), Bushi, cerb+1, dusk+1, v/s belt. Totally stoked.

Although now I'm broke ; ; Glad I got some things selling. :D
