New armor that I got by pure luck! :O

Hey hey everyone! First off let me say I will be gone all next week for spring break. Gotta recharge my sleep battery and eat tasty home cooked meals ^^. But fear not, for I have adventures to speak of! Nyzul Isle! With salvage out of the way, its definitely nice to be able to help out your friends when they need help with Nyzul Isle! Been doing a few runs with Arnor and I did a single run with Coejus. Three of my four runs saw armor drops so its definitely been quite fun. I even got goliard body. . .yay ^^;. Anyhoo, looking at it....well...quite honestly I'm not all too good with mage stats so I'm not sure what its good for with my rdm. Forix said it would be a good piece of armor to wear if I was chainspelling the heck out of stuff, which is true. I'll just test the armor and dynamis and see how it does. So yah. Lotta fun. Hopefully I find more armor with my friends ^^;. Oh, and if you know a good situation to use goliard body, let me know. I wanna use it correctly.

Dynamis! Dynamis has been going pretty swell. Nothing but wins. Little to no deaths for me. I'm definitely a very happy camper. I even get to dance with taru like Eltaru! Wooo! Definitely gotta give a big super duper thanks to Talliah and Mikumaru for pulling the strings to get me in. The linkshell is great! My collection of armor continues with me getting cor gloves! I'll lvl the job soon. I swear!

Random NM time! I got bored so decided to camp this tiger. I'm not sure if I popped it or if it was already there. The area is quite huge. Regardless, I killed it and I even got the drop. It was a nice little farming experience. Except fighting the gnole...yeah. That was a big mistake. No creature should be allowed to cure itself for that much effing HP. Stupid gnoles...

My beastmaster has finally leveld to 64! Experience is flowing nicely and I'm pretty sure I can hit my goal by having bst lvled to 75 by the end of the year ^^. Anyways, there is a nice pair of bst pants that you can get from the treasure caskets in Sauromugue Champaign. I tried getting the pants to no luck but I did run into this cockatrice. Sadly the bird didn't drop the item needed for the belt. The game just doesn't want me to level monk. Honestly! I will be quite honest and say I hate the game mechanic of treasure caskets. The idea of having a rare 10% chest drop from a mob that from that 10% only half of them will be the casket that drops treasure. And from that half the pants I want is only a 7%ish drop. Thats a .35% chance per a monster that I will get a pair of pants. Not 35%, not 3.5%, .35%. Thats a third of a percent!!! If I wanted to kill a crap ton of monsters hoping to get a rare drop I would play WoW. Thats right, I spoke the forbiddin words. But I didn't play the darn game for a reason. So get the darn WoW mechanic out of FFXI darnat!!! >_<

Thats all I have to say. April is just around the corner so lets finish March with a bang!! Don't forget to smile! :D Now for some silly tirades of a taru!

Coejus: Mew mew mew mew mew mew! o,...,o

Me: Hiya taru @_@

Coejus: *Gnaw*

No Stuffy Nose Will Stop Me

*Sniiiiff* Ugg...Darn colds. Hi hi peeps. I hope you're all doing better then me @_@;. My cold has been kicking my butt lately. However, even that will not stop me from adventuring! So here is my little update of what I have been doing.

I had some extra time on my hands so I decided to join my dynamis linkshell in a limbus run. It was very fun to use thief. Dynamis is rdm only for me, so getting to strut in my thief equipment is always nice. XD Limbus will probrably be a more sporadic thing for me, but hopefully I can get some decent things out of it ^^;.

Dynamis has also been going pretty well. I finally got my Dynamis-Jueno win so I can finally go to Dyn-Beucedine!! :O Here's hoping to new treasures! Oh yes, as for dynamis armor I am now 3/5 for thf, 3/5 bst,1/5 rdm, 1/5 rng, and 1/5 for cor ^^b. My little collection is coming along nicely. Here's hoping to some more~.

Campagin! I totally haven't done it in quite a while. If you want to make sure you stay in good shape with a job, campagin is definitely a great place to train. I got to mess around with my evasion set and it definitely helped with tanking. Still had to thank a lotta peeps for curing me though ^^;. Anyhoo, thanks to campaign I got my third spell interruption merit! I am now 40k exp away from finishing my merits for thief. Thats right peeps! Only 40k to go! I'm definitely looking foward to finishing thief. Best. Job. Ever.

Last but not least. Assaults! I've been doing quite a few lately, many of them with Arnor. I am now only 14 away from the Captain rank. Not bad seeing how I was over 20+ away a few weeks ago @_@;. Assaults are also going to be kind of sporadic, but hopefully I can get them done sooner or later.

Anyhoo, thats my little update for now. I have finals coming up so I probrably won't be on for that much. I definitely need to sit down and study a lot. Like...a super lot ^^;;;. My stuffy nose demands tissues. My sore throat demands warm tea. And my head is wobbling as bad as a bobble head. Time for sleep! Have a good one everyone ^^.

March, Battlefield of Ideals

Haven't updated in a while. Been very busy lately with stuff outside of my adventuring so I honestly don't have anything super mind boggling or amazing to tell. First things first though, I should talk about my adventures. With what little time I have, things have been going alrighty. I got super lucky on a dynamis-windurst run and ended up getting my thief hat, ranger gloves, and puppetmaster gloves. ^^ It was a really nice run, even though the linkshell's megaboss was a little disatisfied with the linkshell's performance. Doubt he will ever read this, but I promise to give 200% next time boss!

Also wanted to thank everyone's kind words on my birthday a few days ago. Although I tried to hide the date, a few peeps still used their detective skills to find it. Keep it a secret darnat! I don't wanna grow up XD. With a little nudge from the bestest monk ever Cyp cyp, I've decided to see what I can do to make a decent evasion set. It's coming along nicely ^^.

This is mainly a little post for me to remember what was going on at this time. So if you don't want to hear ramblings from a crazy mithra, please skip this paragraph. Anyhoo, I have been super busy with school, and some of my thoughts on it reflect to this game. I've never been super good at anything. My parents always kind of nudged me at stuff but I was always intimidated by people who were better then me. Anyhoo, in my academic career I am struggling quite a bit with my classes and find it very difficult sometimes. Part of me wants to give up saying its too difficult. (Just typing aimlessly ^^;) However...there is a small part of me that wants to keep trying. Very similar to where I am with thief, my academic career has reached a point where I can no longer do stuff in a lazy manner and still reap the rewards. The upgrades that my thief needs will need a lot of work. The career choice that I have chosen will require much work as well. However, I believe I can pull it off. I may never be the best in either catagories. There are those after me who may even pass me and accomplish things quicker. However, that does not negate the hard work I have and will continue to put into them.

As much as I love this game, there will be times in the upcoming few months in which I may disappear for a few days into my pile of books. Hopefully during my breaks I can then disappear from my work back into adventuring. And even to the side I have other things to take care of as well. XD However! I am more determined then ever to accomplish my goals. As difficult as they may be, the fire lit under my butt by a taru blm will push me on! So my fellow adventuring buddies, let us push ourselves foward. To newer treasures! To new life lessons! To our passions!!! *Runs off*

Er...and maybe newer tasty dishes. XD ^^;

Calling All Koalas and Pandas

First a little update on myself and then a huge update for my little linkshell. Bst is going great like always. I've been making small upgrades here and there and the job has continued to be consistantly strong. There are still situations that I sometimes cannot handle (a failed charm + 3 links + mob I was trying to fight = death @_@;). However, beastmaster has proven itself to get itself out of situations I would of died in if I was a rdm or had to flee from if I was a thf. Theres that satisfying feeling of being able to stand and fight in those really difficult situations. I am definitely super duper looking foward to taking bst to 75.

As a little note I have also lvled blu a little bit. The job is super buff and fun as I remembered. Valkrum Dunes is also as evil and mean as I remembered. LOL >_>....

Now down to business! This is for all of you Koalas and Pandas who still read this. I have a super duper big favor to ask of you. KP's membership is low. Like super low low. Now, I know everyone is super busy with their endgame stuff. I know when the ls was made and when the pearls were sent out, I made sure everyone knew there was no commitment to the linkshell. However, due to the low membership, KP is gonna start recruiting new members. All levels welcomed and only friendly peeps need apply. Anyhoo, this is where the favor comes in. To all KP members, if you know of anyone needing a friendly helpful ls, or want to spread the word about us. Please do~. I plan on trying my hardest but if more people can get the word out it would be great.

Anyways. Thats my little request for now. Keep on adventuring peeps!

Holy Moly @_@;;;

Welp I'm finally back. I want to thank everyone for the warm and loving "welcome backs" I got, both in game and on the blog. Having super duper amazing friends like you guys is what makes me keep coming back to the game ^^.

Anyhoo, I haven't had any super duper amazing adventures yet. I got beastmaster to 61, and Assassin's Vest from Dyn-Bastok. I always remember laughing at how silly Kallo looked wearing it in sky. The armor doesn't make elvaan look any more "awsome" as he would say. However! It is in fact a cute piece of armor and despite having awful stats...I think I might keep it out of storage for a bit.

So! Now that I'm back I gotta get back into business. So here's what I got planned!

Dynamis! I plan on going to as many runs as I can. Although I don't have points, I'm definitely gonna keep my eyes on thf, rdm, bst, rng and cor armor. Its always nice to get a piece here and there ^^.

Sea~! I really need to get my last UFO organ. So if anyone needs a thf or rdm for farming, you let me know! I also might start sea and limbus with my dynamis shell. There are a few things I would like from those areas.

Nyzul Isle! Now I know I had talked to many peeps before my computer blew up, so it has been a while and things change. If you're interested in a Nyzul Isle static that will focus on getting to floor 100 first and then items, send a msg or tell my way!

Assaults! Me and Arnor plan on static'ing and if anyone would like to join let us know! We wanna get that captain rank.

Leveling - I'm still trying to rework my schedule but I plan on lvling beastmaster. Its definitely a nice relaxing job for me. Although the experience isn't omg-amazing, the go at your own pace is very nice. Like get a little experience here, then take a break and do a few math problems, and repeat ^^;.

Anyhoo, I'm super sleepy and I'm sure this post will come out as random. Have a good one everyone! Let's go on some adventures together!

TADAIMA!

I'M BACK! Put on your best equipment! Grab some food! Its adventuring time!!!

Small Update

Should be up and running in a few days ^^;. Anyhoo, to put a smile on some peoples' faces, heres a conversation with the the one and only Mr. Dhalmel. Oh he is so silly sometimes....must be because he's missing something up there...since he's so old :O.

Kallo: You didn't tell me you got enkidy pants!
Me: Yeah I did ._.
Kallo: ... grats!!
Me: T_T
Kallo: Sorry, I'm just getting old obviously
Me: XD Juuuuuust kidding! Didn't tell ya but yer old!!!
Kallo: /slap

Edit: Computer is still waiting on one last part and the ffxi disks...Might be another week or two ~.~;
