Weekly Goals and Accomplishments 8/15/2014 - 8/21/2014Follow

#1 Aug 15 2014 at 6:55 AM Rating: Excellent
It's Friday! What are you hoping to get done in the weekend - and beyond?

1. Get archer to 20. Need it to 34 eventually for quelling strikes.
2. Get scholar to 40.
3. Do enough hunts to finish out a bloody log - I'd like to start unweathering my accessories

Some of the FC may be having a micro gathering in real life to go to the High Museum of Art in ATL to see a car show on Sunday. Between that and my normal Saturday night FFXI obligation, I don't think I can aim for too much more this weekend.

Already got the Allied Marks needed to get a sand, and used that sand to upgrade my new Weathered Burtgang to a nice spiffy i110 Burtgang.

Also made a friend during hunts. A lovely miqo'te lady was flirting with me the entire 4-5 hour run. That was um... interesting.

So honestly, my goals are pretty complete for the weekend.

More Allied Marks/Sands/Oils never hurt ofcourse. And i've been needing to do the whole FC-revival thing for a few weeks now.

But actual goals? Nope, done. :)

Time to go after my last Levi weapon - the Wave Bow. Got my staff last night after 2 months of hunting it.

Do some hunts. Want a Succubus minion.

Farm some maps for Sunday. Been lazy all this week.

Next week? Cap tomes and get a ST drop. That's really about it. Buy up all the potash and hard sap if they drop under 7k, maybe.

Well, last night I finally got on for a good while, but essentially no hunt parties in PF, so I just spammed Tam-Tara HM for Soldiery. This week I'll keep it really simple:
  • Cap Soldiery for both time periods
  • Spend a serious number of hours Hunting and unweather some WHM accessories.

I'm going to leave it at that. If this upcoming week is like the last one, this will challenge me enough. And I'd still like Atma of the Goat and a Titanic Sawfish, but those are definitely background tasks this week, since they seem totally unachievable.

1. Take care of my little girl this weekend after her kindergarten shots while my wife crunches out a big art project due at the beginning of next week.

2. Get 50 soldiery and buy blm ilvl 100 ring next tuesday to put me at ilvl 109.

3. From now on, since novus is done, use myth from hunts to upgrade bard and scholar, and get everything but white mage at ilvl 90 by the end of next week.

4. After buying the blm ring, start applying the solidery and allied seals to tank gear (long term goal) to get paladin to 109 over the next 4-5 weeks.

5. Complete T7 and T8 this weekend, work some more on T9.

6. Maybe level white mage. That 36 is the only thing standing between me and all 50s.

7. Maybe do some fates for atma on my second weapon.

8. Try not to cause too much more static drama. I caused a lot of drama when I quit my old static for this new group.

Is the word "blood - y" seriously filtered out now?

If you mention a type of bolt you twist into a nut, it makes it look like you've been censored for spouting f-bombs. Smiley: rolleyes

Plow bolt?

I confess I don't know what that one is.

Archer to 20!

I also have been leveling PUG and LNC concurrently, because I can share gear that way, and get some vital cross class abilities along the way. I really do not like them, though. While I might eventually take BRD up to 50 and gear it up for endgame thingsy, I don't see myself doing it with either MNK or DRG. The positional junk on lancer is too much of a hassle, and pugilist is.... really the same 3-4 things over and over again. (Well, so is archer, but it doesn't FEEL as repetitive.)

Done. Kid was a trooper! No tears, was light years better than I had hoped. Some weird festival outside my wife's work this weekend pulled in all the creepies, so it was fun finding out that they had good wifi to remote play on my vita while I waited around to bash some heads in. Smiley: banghead

Incomplete. Need Tuesday to roll around. Smiley: dubious

This is done, all at least ilvl 90 except white mage. Also got my monk relic weapon, so that makes every job but white mage with a relic. The completionist inside me is overjoyed. Smiley: grin

I've got 4 logs and 1500 seals and all weathered items upgraded. I have fought Google Chrome and Asuna Yu'mi for as long as I possibly need to. I dont have to hunt again for a good long while. Smiley: smile

Wahwahwah. In the process of remaking the static I left my old complete static for. Have you ever been driving and someone in your lane was going slow so you switched lanes only to find out that the lane you switched to is now going slower and the lane you just came from is now filled up? Yep. Smiley: glare

Can't do it. Too hard. Hate whm... Smiley: frown

I stuck with them, training people on T7 all weekend, repeatedly dying because we were in a four ranged dps group (for fireball overlapping fun) and people cant seem to learn to turn for voice. On an upnote I beat T5 a few times and got 2 blm allagan wands Smiley: tongue

First week capped.

Earrings unweathered, first i110 item for WHM.

Still unachievable. So is any other Atma. Did I like get the Opo-opo Stink on me or something?

Another thing I'm wondering: I'm accumulating Myth and I don't have any jobs to spend it on. It seems a shame to let it cap and waste it. What do you guys do with yours?

I'm in the same situation so I've just been buying crafting materials with it and selling them on the MB. 500 myth gets me about 10k and I don't know what else to do with it right now. Still stuck at 1 atma so I don't think I'll be using it for a relic anytime soon.

1. I buy ilvl 90 items for outfitting my alternate jobs currently.
2. But, When running Animus, i spent 1500 myth per book.
3. And, When running Novus, I spent 800 myth per mysterious map.
4. You could buy the crafting materials (potash sells for 10-15k on our server for low myth cost) to make money.
5. You could buy the high level crafting materials (saurian skin, etc) for 500 myth to potentially make more money.
6. You also need myth for your relics and for the relic zenith upgrade. I am using this for my alt classes as well.
7. Buy the jewelry pieces (hero's) and I think you can equip them on your retainers to get higher ilvl field missions.

That's all I can think of atm, unless you want to buy pets from Auriana.

Edit - Post patch 2.35 you can now turn in the ilvl 90 myth items to your gc for gc seals.

I caught the Titanic Sawfish last night!

Only took about 3500 fish to get it... Smiley: rolleyes And the guildmaster sent me off to catch another darned legendary before I can close out the quest. I simply had to:

/em punches <t> in the face.

I've turned my attention towards my lvl 40 SCH. Got swiftcast, and will get stoneskin today. Found out that I really like WHM in the process.

Doing ST when I get home from work for another BRD piece. After that, it's back to SCH. I should probably grind myth and soldiery, but I'm just not in the mood for it right now.
