Cheaper currency?

Im so happy! SE announced they are dropping the price for Dynamis to 500.000 from 1.000.000gil.

This should effectivly drop prices of currency in half, but of course more people will buy currency now, atleast initially.

Fishing

Today I did some fishing. Finished the quests for "Inside the belly", and got a Pirate's Chart! Now I just need to do that fight and hope to see a Mercurial kris.

Later we did 2 Limbus farming runs. Went smooth.

The beginning of the biggest challenge yet..

..starts now.
I have decided to put all my future earnings into a relic fund, to ge me a Mandau.
Crazy, I know. But I feel that I have more or less gotten all the stuff I need to make my THf truly amazing. Only thing I'm missing is the Homam legs and I will get those eventually, and they wont cost me anything..
All gear for my BLM (that I need to buy) is mine already, and all buyable gear for SAM, I have already, not counting the Hagun, and I'm willing on skipping that for awhile.

I wont be able to sponsor any Dynamis runs, so I will have to buy currency. But I will get there eventually..

Sunday, same procedure as last week..

Did Brothers ENM first, got crap drops.

Later that night we did a Tier3 Einherjar, got the boss (KB) down to 75% and then ran out of time.

I had enough ampoules to buy me another(!) ring, damn I've gotten sooo many rings this week, lol.



After that we did the X-Knife fight, and then the ENM Shell We Dance, got crap drops from those also.

ToAU done!

Today i finally took the time to do ToAU 44 mission.
So now I have completed that expansion.
I choose the DD ring as an award.



After that we did a Tier3 Einherjar, didnt clear it but got some more ampuoules. Next time I cant buy the Omega Ring.

After that we went to Sea to try and pop Ix'Drg, we split up in too groups, and my group popped it, but it depopped before our tank could get there and claim it.. ><
That sucked, but atleast I got to try out my other new ring I bought today!
The Sorcerer's Ring!!



Yes, finally I have it.

BLM HP-Down Gear complete!!

After Einherjar we did a few Rostrum Pumps runs and I got 1, so I'm now done with my HP-down gear.
Now I just need to buy the Sorceror's Ring, but there's none on the AH ><.

Yesterday, after 3 years of on and off fishing, I finally got:

Another Zenith piece.

Yesterday we decided to lowman the 2 genbu pops we farmed, and I got the mitts :-)
We will be going back since we need to get Aldric a pair of these too, since only 1 pair dropped.


Today we have some ENMs to do.
First one was "Brothers" which got us a Scouter's Robe and 3500 exp.
Second one was "Sheep in antlion's clothing" which gave us crap and about 2800 exp.
Third one was "The X's Knife fight", but we only got crap.

Tuesday, July 8, 2008

Me, Daz and Seanyboi went organfarming in Sea. Went good, I almost have my Thunder Obi now. Will come back some other day.

We did Dynamis-Valkurm tonight. Had a lot of good drops, and I got the Thief Cape.
Going right into my SATA macro-setup :-).

Saturday, July 5, 2008

I took a few days off from FFXI for some women, beer and metal.
I forgot to bring my Love torque, but it turned out good in the end.

2 less inventory spaces..

Yesterday was a long day.
I started the day with a 4 hour farming session.

After that we did the Gration fight, and I got the shield. Its a good piece for my THF when im not subbing NIN. So THF/SAM, THF/WAR, THF/DNC will use this piece.



In the evening we did Dynamis-Beaucedine, not a good run for currency but we got some good AF drops. I got the BLM coat.

You want some updates?

We did 2 ENMs again today. Got 1 Cloud evoker and 6500 more limit points, which went into some BLM merits. Thinking of adding some sort of matrix on this page with my merits. (Edit: OK, there is now a section to the right with my merits in. This was a bit depressing, I need to to more merit parties.. ><

Is this Love., that I'm feeling?

Is this the Love Torque...that I have been......WAITING FOR!?!?

I cant come up with anything profound to write so I'll just end it here and say: "Fuck ye, I got Love Torque!!"


Wednesday, June 11, 2008

OMG!

We did did Proto-Omega again today. And the freakin' body dropped!
And on top of that i was first in line for feet, so I got those too!!!!

I am so happy.. I still cant belive it.

Update time

I never got to play yesterday. SE managed to cockblock me with a 6 hour download time for the update.

BUT HOLY SHIT! The new gear is looking awesome.

Monday, June 9, 2008

Going to be working on my merits for BLM for awhile now. So much to get and now they are raising the merit cap also ^^.


Today is the BIG version update. I am so looking forward to this. There is soo much good stuff happening in it, new moogles, new pop HNMs, merit cap, WOTG missions... How can I possibly find time to experience all this? Maybe I should leave work early and start the update download..yes that sounds good...

Summertime and the galka is hot..

Ye I went all crazy with the new theme for my blog. I like so I dont care what you think! ^^

Been working on my fishing-skill. Turns out that Cheval Salmon is great for skillup at my range, and i've gotten it up to 18 now.

Yesterday we had Dynamis-Xarkabard, we got a WAR,DRK,NIN,WHM AF drops which was ok I guess.

Monday, June 2, 2008

RDM sub finished!

Yesterday was a pretty good day. First me, Daz, Betty and Roi did "Shall we dance". Got crap drops but atleast this time we cleared it fast and without problems.

After that Seraphi got together and killed Xolotl, which dropped B. Kotes with Avy got for his Samurai.

I then, as I so faithfully pledged earlier this week, managed to get my RDM sub up to 37. Much due to the fact that i used up my Anniversary Ring.

We then had a free day, since we postponed the Bahamut V2 fight that was planned. I unlocked the Dark Knight job (Im thinking of leveling this..) and then decided I should work on my Fishing. I read up on what would be a good skillup fish and it really went awesome. I went from level 10 to level 14 in 2 hours!

Thursday, May 29, 2008

Did a Proto-Ultima yesterday, went fine and we got double legs which was awesome since we had a lot of people wanting those.

Went fishing afterwards for Angel skins, but no luck, 0/5 yesterday.

IRL Delevel. [Yes please!]

Got my RDM to 32 by now, hope to finish leveling it to 37 by the end of this week, will see how it goes.. Cant play today (friend's bday party) and this friday im gona get hammered! Im turning 31 and it will require an insane amount of alcohol to make me forget this. Hence i cant play friday (and my performance on saturday/sunday will probably be sub par >< )

IRL Delevel! [Can I have it?]

Thursday, May 22, 2008

I added a small Blogger Widget to my Mac at work, simplifying the posting process to this blogg. Hopefully Ill be able to update more frequently now.

Well yesterday we did Proto-Omega again, and what do you know.. no effing body again. We got 2x Eyes (aka. 2 Nazi helmets), making this the worst drops ever i think. ><
Atleast 1 chip dropped so that speeds up the process a bit to do a new bossfight..

Today I'm taking a day off from FFXI, going to see a concert in Stockholm. dEUS! Will be fun.

BLM night and day!

Yes, I've finally got BLM up to 75, (actually got it like a week ago) and I have done alot of stuff on it since. Put some MP-merits on it but there is more needed and all those other fancy merits.
The reason I'm posting this short post today is to tell you I got my first Zenith Gear piece uncursed, to be used with my HP-down macro for Sorcerer's Ring (when I get it). The HP down swapgear will be quite alot of stuff considering I'm Galka and need to bring it down approximately 100hp more than a Tarutaru does (since its % based).
I guess my HP merits doesn't help either..
Well here is the piece i got :-)

Quick BLM update.

It's scary how long it has taken me to level this job. Just checking the dates on the last few posts shows how long it just takes to get a few levels, and BLM has been like the only thing I have exped during this whole time too! Thanks to campaign I im currently at level 74, with about 30k to go until level 75. After that I just need to cap the buffer, and I'll do my merits on THF or SAM.
I got a few points saved up which i'll invest in BLM as soon as I hit 75.

I'm curently struggeling with cash also, have gone below a 100k which is not very good, so I have to start farming again. I need 60k each week just to cover the cost for our 2 limbus runs we do.. And I dont plan on missing any of those.

A short update

Nothing special to report. I have got my BLM up to 71, and I just realised that this job will take up soooo much MH space, there is lika a gazillion things needed for gearswaps, and it aint cheap either. So much for pimping out my THF and SAM ><.
We have done a few Bahamut V2 fights which went good, (fight was over in 30seconds). Done the usual jailers, Dynamis and Limbus. Still waiting for that damn Homam body to drop, I guess I'm just not destined to have it..

Tuesday, March 4, 2008

Not much to report.

I have been grinding on my BLM, it is level 67 now. Have done some gear updates on it which is nice, but I need to free up some more gil to get some more stuff.


BUT, the big difference is that i finally have my Swift Belt on for my THF and SAM. I got it on my 4th try which I guess is not too bad. Seraphi went two Sundays in a row and did 7 pops total, 6 of those dropped the belt. Thats an awesome droprate!
