Busy Busy

I have been pretty busy with a bunch of shit happening at work, so I have been AFK from the game to get things squared away.

I have managed to get my BRD AF legs, Feet, and the old gauntlets for my Hands.
Dinged 55 on BRD so now I get to Ballad II it up!
Dinged 30 on WHM via exp scrolls and such.
Obtained Copper Emblem.

We claimed Adamantoise and Fafnir this week. Faf was a let down getting A.Hands and gilfinder gloves. We also claimed another faf last week, but.... it was outside party. Our party leader had blockaid up and didnt get the alliance request...so we ended up losing claim. Oh well, tough breaks some times.

I sold out of my stock pile of Shrimp lanterns so its about time to do some more Goldsmithing skilling up. With all the profit I bought a Terra's Staff. Never thought I would get both HQ staves on my BRD this early, oh well, I dont have much to spend gil on atm, especially because I dont seem to be on WAR or DRK much these days.

My buddy Sapster and I are going to try and exp quite a bit to push my BRD and his NIN above 60 here soon. Then who knows, I may exp whore to 75. Only thing I am missing gear-wise is opo-opo crown, Loquacious Earring, and Musical Earring. I decided I am going to get at least 1 of the earrings via points in my Limbus shell before I decide to go after Homam Legs.

I think I have finally came to terms with the fact that my HNM shell will prolly phase out me coming as DRK anymore to events when my BRD gets of age. I suppose I will be cool with only coming PLD or BRD. I think once my BRD gets 75 I will start working on my neglected WAR. Its haste build is still a bit lacking. I been kind of waiting on enough points for B.Hiadate to flush out the rest of my WAR but we havent done sky in a month. I am sure we will again once HNM times go to shit again, but who knows.

All that said, I am also thinking of putting all my job upgrades on cruise control and try and push my Goldsmithing to Bead skill up level. I think it will take me 4-5 months to do that if I dont try to do any equip upgrades.
