The last time I played the game this much was&#8230; well, er&#8230; uh&#8230; I can&#8217;t really remember! And by &#8220;this much&#8221; I mean almost every day while being productive and not using FFXI as an over glorified chat program.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, first things first! Skill ups! I have miraculously capped my Healing and Divine magic skill on my level 61 WHM. I am hoping by having it capped now, I won&#8217;t have to bang my head on the desk as many times later on when I decide to pick it up again. I have also managed to skill up Fishing 2 levels over the weekend and bring my moat carp count to a measly 408\/10,000. Not that I really care that much (sorta), since Fishing is an activity I enjoy participating in to mellow out. I have been having Fishing withdrawals since I&#8217;ve been grinding away though, so I am looking forward to getting back into it next week if I am not busy with other things.<\/p>\n<p>I am kind of bummed out about being unable to skill up in Campaign without tags anymore, but I figured it was getting abused in a way S-E didn&#8217;t intend and had to be nixed. Still&#8230; it drives me bananas not having capped skills and I just have to hope for a Besieged to roll around whenever I am on so I can recap my BLM skills whenever I level.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of BLM, project BLM DUO has commenced this week! We started off at level 37 on Monday and dinged level 41 last night (or was it 42? I forget&#8230;). Our plan is to level BLM a few times a week for a few hours (2 &#8211; 3 hours), and hopefully get to 75 without <em>too<\/em> much trouble. BLU leveling is still on weekends or whenever, and WHM will be leveled after I finish BLM. I think I might be stretched out, but at least two of those jobs are already in their 60s and don&#8217;t have much more left to go. We won&#8217;t get to level next week since Orophen is attempting to finish up the doink! layout before my birthday, but I think that will give me time to focus on other things such as Fishing and finishing up my RDM subjob.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-588\" src=\"https:\/\/mreh.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/04-08-09a.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"435\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Last Dynamis-Bastok, I finally received my second piece of BRD relic! Woo hoo! I even had the pleasure of having my own cat (Sakurasama) during Dynamis! She is an awesome pet that nukes, hugs, and noms me when I bite her too. But Dynamis doesn&#8217;t like pets and ended up killing her a few times and forcing me to rescue my poor beaten up cat. D;<\/p>\n<p>More than anything I am looking forward to hopefully getting CoP done next weekend and getting my Tamas Ring. I know Rajas would have been great for my BLU (and part of me still wants to get it), but I figure I can change it if I really want to and that I have more mage\/support jobs than I do melee anyway. Though I know a certain someone is hoping I go towards DRK or SAM, stating its a better fit for my blood thirsty personality~<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since completing my Montessori training last week (whew!), I have been busy in the game with odds and ends that I feel my head will spin off.
