Wednesday night I went with Xedrik, Alelia, and Zaine to do San d'Oria Missions 7-1 and 7-2. Congratulations to Alelia and Zaine ( Read more... )

Not one minute after logging in last night, I got an invite to a PL'd party in Qufim, on my DRK20! I decided to join them, and I ended up getting all the way to level 24 in about 2 hours. :D Xedrik stopped by and apparently he knew one of the other people in the PT. He traded me some shiny new gears to use ( Read more... )

Saturday night I went to Benjarong for dinner with Mandy and Norman (we first tried numerous other places, including Cheesecake Factory and Tyson's Buffet, but they all had lines out the door because it was some holiday). The food was good though. ^^ It was the third time I had Thai recently; I don't think I can get sick of it ( Read more... )

No FFXI Wednesday night; pre-Valentine's dinner with Francis at a full-course Indian restaurant ( Read more... )

Last night I leveled DRK from 1 to 11, with the help of FoV Refresh and Regen. ^^ I used a scythe the entire time, but it's currently very underleveled since I was also using a crossbow to speed things up. (I'm not used to my melee weapon being slower than my ranged.) Beating up on weak mobs is fun.

Saturday afternoon I went to Jugner Forest [S] to skill up my Marksmanship on COR (w/o tags on). I bumped into Jimmie and Palo, and partied up with them to trade buffs. I managed to get my skill capped for job level 50, which is the highest you can get on Fortifications. Anything else in Campaign is really too hard for me to hit at this point ( Read more... )

Last night I tried to build a manaburn PT for my COR, but it didn't go well. I found three BLMs interested, but one of them DC'd before even getting to the camp. Of the remaining two, one was good (although an Elvaan, with low total MP), but the other didn't speak English, so we had trouble coordinating the strategy. Eventually I got a ( Read more... )

Wednesday night was another round of FAIL in Nyzul Isle.  I went w/ some people from this new LS I picked up, PIEMASTERS.  (The leader, Nimbusyosh, was in the endgame LS I was in for a month or two last year ( Read more... )

Last night I got invited to a Crawler's Nest party on COR!  I had put my flag up, and was ready to head to a Fortifications to try to skill up Marksmanship (I already had flag up for over an hour while watching a movie, Henry Poole Is Here, with my family), when I got the invite ( Read more... )
