This month has been great so far, we finally beat Dynamis-Bastok. I managed to get it on 2 characters (Idun & Iridescence) - so now I am just missing flags on Ethy, Nayla and Enayla :)

Getting the last flag I needed for Dynamis-Beaucedine was pretty yay
Our Beaucedine run went pretty well af wise - my first run there and we get 11 afs. Several people from the linkshell said it was their best run ever :)

Afs that dropped was: drg, whm, smn (was lost though ; , ppl didn't pass at end), dnc, sam, sch, rdmx2, blm, brd and nin

I won lot on whm body :D so now I am 3/5 on it which makes me pretty happy. Just missing gloves + hat - so THANK YOU TO MY LS FFR :) (Final Fantasy Rejects)

My lottery stuff:


+ a bunch of statues


Closer to 75 rdm now - still working on capping magic + finishing subs for that job as well - and need to beat a maat

Need to play some more ff11, so I can finish ACP D;~~ and other goals, my list is so long...

Today I'm left here asking
Where has all the time gone now
I'm left alone somehow "

One thing about FF11 that seems to be very important to most players is to have a really nice Linkshell. Without a linkshell/friends you won't last very long in this game. I can't deny I have felt very lonely on FF11 sometimes, since most of my friends are NA players and when you come from EU and had to change your playtime, because of real life it gets harder and harder to have someone to hang out with. I am still trying to focus on getting more jobs to 75 , so I can consider switching server and find some EU ls.

Idun finally reached level 72 bard. I really hate xping past level 55, it just seems longer and longer till next level. I never liked xping, but you can't really get jobs to 75 without xping. -o-;



Jiulian and I started to level blackmage together. I had put my blm on hold for a long time now. I got a bit sick of pet camps, so I took a long break. Jiulian finally caught up and past me in level with use of Anniversary Ring + Kupofried's ring. So I decided I wanted to tag along and hope to get level 75 with him. Even though he is like 4 levels ahead of me <.<
I also brought Nayla along, I am going to take her to 70 first. I know I can't beat Maat yet on her and I want to cap most of her magic skills before trying... if I fail I guess I could always take her war55 to 66 and try for maat :3



---- almost there.... just wait and see, it will cap soon.... I did cap her enhancing magic finally... lol :3


! Finally another cooking sub done. Now I just need to get Lu Shang fishing rod + last furniture + Hocho + 100 fishing !


I have stopped with Einherjar again, the event started too late for me and I didn't want to only sleep 3-4 hours before my Dynamis run in the morning :/ I am also taking a break from my Dynamis linkshell on Saturdays at 9 pm est. It's just really rough on me with my sleeping pattern, and I also feel like a leech lotting af that I can't wear yet. Like Brd72 and Whm 71 only. I want to get them to 75 and maybe ninja as well. So I don't feel I am a lootwhore :/

So my mainly focus on FF11 is to xp, which I hate doing lol.

My Saturday morning Dynamis is going well. We still need to beat Bastok, but I am sure we will due time.

Yeah that's Idun only wearing Whm af lol. I sold off my extra set of WHM gear and I didn't have time to switch since I came as Iride first. I found out we were going for flag and I could actually see us winning it. I already have the flag on Iridescence, so I switched to Idun

/cheer :3 Now I just need bastok on Idun + Iridescence.

Also got these lovely pants

I should really rewrite my whm macros now XD Iridescence is 2/5 on whm relic :)

Nyzul went well last Saturday. We managed to get 2 drops of gear. I got my Goliard Hat, but I forgot to SS it :3

So here is me wearing it :3 Probably going to use it in my Stoneskin macro + Cure V.

Also managed to get some other things done in game today and I helped Jabari with pld Af NM in Davoi



{See you again}

Is it just me or did my ff11 posts get smaller?? I guess it shows I am not playing as much as I used to. In some ways it's probably for the best and in other ways it bothers me, because I can't keep up with friends anymore. I fall behind with everything, I get jealous when they achieve something I wanted to do as well. Lately I have been making short time goals, so I have something to motivate myself to do while playing.

So what have I been up to since last time I posted?

I can actually answer that in one sentence.

Xp, Dynamis, Nyzul, Campaign and Einherjar.

. . .

That pretty much says everything.


I personal find it hard to keep up with campaign, it's getting harder and harder to keep my medal, because I have 4 other things I want to do as well. So I fall behind with campaign over and over again. Campaign has mainly been for whm merits and gear. I need to finish up Iridescence so I can move to Idun. ALso I wish SE would just give us the damn bodies already!
I actually managed to gain another merit I still have a long way to go before my Whm is done :/ I just really don't want to join merit parties, they are so darn boring they make me sleepy. So I rather just avoid it by doing Campaign.

As for Dynamis my latest af gain was
Another rot piece. We failed to get flag in Bastok. So I think we are redoing it next Saturday. Then I will gain access to Dynamis-Beaucedine. ! That's quite some achievement there for me, I have also been doing Dynamis 2-3 times in one day on 3 characters lol. It was a bit insane, but I actually enjoy Dynamis still. I know a lot of people hate it, but I enjoy it. I just wish I didn't have the 3 am one, since that's rough on my sleeping pattern.

Our average drop rate for Nyzul seems to be like 1/4 every Saturday we go. Last Saturday Jiulian got lucky and got one of the pieces he wanted.

So congrats to him :)



(and yes, that poor sch got hunted by like 10-15 people, she/he almost died before we got uncharmed lol)
A new event added on my schedule is Einherjar. The first time we went was a bit annoying, it took almost 3 hours to get people ready for a 30 mins event. OUCH. I was a bit annoyed since I thought we would be done by 1 am, so I could get a nice amount of sleep before I had to head out on a real life errand in the morning. But no, it didn't go that way. The clock was almost 4 am, before I got to bed. Now that was a bit nasty and I was so tired in the morning lol.

I must admit, I didn't do well as whm in Einherjar, I was so laggy that all the important text I needed just passed by so fast. My whole pc seemed laggy. I really need to reinstall it completely. It got really bad after I use system restore to get rid of a Omega driver I tried out for my graphic card which gave me blue screen a bit too much. I think it will take a couple of einherjar runs before I get better - I sort of learn by doing. I am lucky forward to next time, I just hope it won't take that long again for people to show up ;<.<

Schwertleite's feather ! One down, 8 left to get

Another news is my main linkshell is pretty much dead now. It seems Soco decided to quit again and probably sell his character. Along with Taylormade. So now I don't really have a main linkshell anymore. Most of the time I was all alone on it anyways.

Made my own ls just for myself, so I didn't walk around without a pearl looking rmtish!


Ethymarck was a joke thing on my old LS DH. The idea was to have a server for myself, where I just lived with all my characters lol.



:) Cheers. I don't really level my npc that often anymore, we used to have skill up parties with them a long time ago lol. Where everyone brought their new npc with them lol.
Now to get 60 !

Cute scholar npc from sch af quest

Always liked that mithra :)


Just a nice picture of my char Nayla

Later!

Experience Points ~

April has been a month of a lot of experience points in more than one way!

Nyzul

Nyzul set party finally reached floor 100

So now we can finally start farming floors for gear, the drop rate is not terrible amazing, but would this actually be Final Fantasy 11, if we had great drop rates?!
Last Saturday I was lucky on my token run, and I actually got myself a pair of these , I am sure I can put these to good use, even though I wanted Goliard clogs a bit more. I have been thinking of doing Maat's cap, but not sure I can get myself to do it lol. Thanks to my wonderful Nyzul team of awesomeness :)


Dynamis

Dynamis has really been a lot of fun, I am really enjoying this event as much as I enjoyed Salvage back when we did it.

Idun finally got some wanted pieces of gear.



Iridescence got another flag -

Now I just need flag in Bastok on her to unlock Dynamis-Beaucedine :D which I might get this Saturday morning! n_ n I didn't get so lucky with the Cleric's Pantaloons , I got outlotted the only time they dropped. Not sure if we are doing Jeuno any time soon again :'( So I guess I will have to wait a long time to get these for my barspell macro.


Crafting

I haven't really been doing much crafting lately due to low funds, but I did manage to get Mephala's leathercraft up a few levels



XP


It was a quite long and hard way, finally got Mephala and Nayla to level 60, so they could get RDM af. It was hard to get help for RDM af. Thanks to Megadeath, Jiulian and Nenja for helping out silly me.



Enayla is doing really well as well. She just finished G2 and is on her way towards level 60 Dragoon. Don't really know why I leveled Dragoon on her, since I need to level white mage for Maat's fight ;<.<



Also I went back to do campaign again. I want more merits on Iridescence + finish getting gear :)


To do list:

Scholar AF - Iridescence (almost done)
Corsair AF - Iridescence
Dragoon AF - Enayla
War AF - Nayla
Merits whm - Iridescence (long way to go still)
Fame - Nayla & Enayla
Mog Locker - Nayla & Enayla
Sandy Rank 5 - Enayla + Idun
Sub jobs - Enayla + Nayla
Npc - Enayla + Nayla
G3 - Enayla
G4 - Nayla
Make gil - hurray
