What's up? I broke the promise of updating every time I played the game again. Big surprise! Anyway, here's what I've been doing with my limited time in FFXI.
In preparation for the new chocobo I'm about to raise (the old one suffered its last days because the credit card cut me off of FFXI) I've been trying to skill up cooking so I can make vegetable paste. This will be the best food for discernment food for a new chick, something I missed last time. While doing this I've been trying to grow various chocobo grasses to deal with any ailments that the new chocobo will get. Last time I bought the grasses from some smart vendor right by the chocobo stables for an inflated price.
Also, my neglected chocobo ended up with first-class discernment along with the abilites Burrow and Treasure Hunter so it's been great for doing the daily Chocobo Hot and Cold game (though its movement speed is HORRID.) The rewards for this game are more obscure chocobo items which, again, will help me with the next chocobo I raise. The other day I got a Celerity Salad from the Hot and Cold game, which to me is a big score. I couldn't find this item anywhere when my previous chocobo was lovesick - this item seems to be the only cure for it.
Also, in WTF news, Blue tackled Tinnin on Sunday! And won twice! My mind is still blown on how we were able to pull that off... but once we got into a rhythm it was almost easy. The thing I don't like about these high-high level fights is the reliance on shadow-images. I'm a big fan of the Paladin tank but there is no way anyone would be able to take the severe beating Tinnin can dish out. It seems kind of broken in my opinion.
The first Tinnin fight was called-for-help at the very last second by Nightelf. I still don't know how you can call for help by accident... Nightelf seemed sincere about it though and stayed for the second fight. Perhaps it is a reflection of my untrusting nature that I kind of freaked out when that happened. I dunno.
On tap this week is getting more Zeni for the next Tinnin, skilling up cooking and woodworking, and Campaign to salvage whatever rank I can get.
