Darwock is going to hate you forever. Though you do have two down in the same town, doesn't seem quite right.for reference here's where they all live
Had intended to spend some hours in Valkurm tonight after Japanese lessons, but instead returned inspired to create an entry for my Japanese blog. The blog was created almost a year ago and only has one (linguistically incorrect, I'm sure) post.
So instead of chilling I spent the last three hours reading and writing so much Japanese script it feels like my eyes are about to bleed all over the keyboard.
And I think I set fire to a packet of microwave popcorn. At least I hope I did, else I doused it under the tap and wasted it all for nothing. I wouldn't care so much had it not been given to me by the almighty Tsing, and had I not been cooking it to make myself feel better with this fact in mind.
That probably makes it time for bed.Last edited by vwilsonuk; 12-10-2005, 00:11.Comment

Ninja now at Lv10
Also spent a few hour camping Leaping Lizard but saw no sign of it as usual so will move onto the other NM's I want for Ninja equipment > Lv20.
For the BCNM20 I have a Beestinger and Platoon Dagger, both of which have a delay of 150. Are we definately going to try it tomorrow (Wedge/Tsing) as I have only just got room to carry Lv20 RDM equipment as a temperary thing and I will likely have to move on to farming after...
Also - do you have any thoughts about what food / drink are going to be best?Last edited by talizker; 12-10-2005, 07:08.Comment

Lets do it tomorrow, get 3 runs in as fast as we can I reckon. If we're winning could do this one twice, mule off the body from the first run and then get another.
I've been and picked up all my tuning forks now so I can do any of the Avatar battles when we're ready. Decided to keep my whisper of frost to get my moon bauble, will get the Avatars on the second run through. As for the Avatar locations I've stuck spoiler tags round them, sorry if anyone didn't want to see them.Comment

Sometimes I wonder how the support model for this game would change if instead of paying by month you payed by minute.
More than that, I wish I didn't care.Comment

Maintenance? In FFXI? Good god, what a surprise...Comment

ARRGGGHHHH!
Why, oh why is trying to get an item from a NM so god damn annoying! I can't say I have ever done much NM camping but I got lucky with Leaping Lizard a long time ago and have battle'd a few without a drop.
Anyway, I fancy the Travellers Mantle to use when leveling Ninja to Lv20 but no way am I paying 150k for it so off I trot to camp Spook for a while... Over 2 nights play there must have been 30 spawns, I managed to get 1 claim and no drop.
This on top of 3-4 hours in Lizzy's spawn area with no sign of the mob.
/fume
I have decided not to waste any more of my precious play time on this pointless exercise and will go back to farming and start crafting to pay for the important gear (Utsusemi!) and not bother with the equipment that is stupidly priced...
As far as crafting - Tsing mentioned that Alchemy was a reasonable one to start with. Realistically, will this start making me a half decent amount of gil at any point up to Lv60 or is farming 30-50k /hour better?Comment

I'd say crafting is an investment and your retruns come back to you later. Alchemy as you level to 60 is around a breakeven route. If you take it beyond 60 you start getting into the higher profit items. However at 60 you can HQ a lot of nice items,
to mind.
Its a hard balance to be honest to judge like I say I try to do both farming and crafting for my gil. I've made a suprisingly large amount shipping items from 1 city to the other, for example on one rather lucky day I spotted
For a while I made a packet out of buying individual items on some things on the AH and reselling as stacks. At one point that was bringing in over 200k a week for me.
There are many ways to make the gil I find, the key though seems to be mules. I run 4 at the moment and I'm starting to seriously consider a 5th to get 2 in Jeuno for extra AH space.Comment

Are Square trying to detox us from the game, all this maintenance keeping us off it.
Gotta say im finding it quite nice having a break from it, been getting round to doing some stuff I usually dont have time for, sometimes you really do not notice how much Square have taken control of your life untill you are forced to break from it
Had a quick visit to the AK forums and am actually finding it quite funny seeing the complaints about the maintenance time.Comment

I've had a great gaming evening so far (only stopped because I got chucked off the 'big' TV downstairs.
Just praying for the family to go to bed so I can get back to it. I discovered Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter tonight and it currently sits paused in the middle of a battle just after my character went all uber and was about to start kicking ass.Comment

Actually have been thinking lately about where I am at in the game, seems I have hit another point where things seem to be a bit aimless at the moment.
I think I am finally through with leveling, for the time being anyway its not something I enjoy and can be motivated to do.
Having the jobs I have already leveled should be enough for plenty to do, I can join in on High Level stuff and have jobs which I can use for Missions and BCNM's so im all set for the more enjoyable stuff.
Things im looking forward to right now would be:
CoP Missions at the top of the list, knowing the challenge its going to be to get through is motivating.
Zilart Missions as well should be good.
KS99 - Yes I have a completed stack of KS and am going to be putting them on a KS99 BCNM, I have let OT know about it so they can bring me into the plans for the next attempts.
BCNM's - im short on seals at the moment as I have done quite alot of BCNM's lately but have enough for some.
Getting to some new areas, to be honest its starting to get tiresome travelling over the same locations over and over, Missions should be a solution to this as well as the next expansion.
Thats about it.Comment
