Little luck finally, but too much...

I got this itch to do a skill up synthe for goldsmithing. Just 1 since O.Ingots are hard to get at a decent price. So I went and made my ingots. I went to synthe the Orichalcum Ring and BAM HQ.



Usually I would be very very excited on a tier 0 HQ for a 98 Goldsmither. NOT THIS TIME. As most who would even read this blog would know, this is a worthless ring. Pretty much my options were NPC it, or try to desynthe it. I of course decided to desynthe it since I had a very very small chance to make my money back. Low and behold... HQ on the desynthe. Bigdadddy obtains 2 Orichalcum Ingots.

I am thrilled that I didnt lose 600k and was right back where I started. So I synthed the Ring again, NQ this time, and then synthed a Snow Ring and got .1 for Goldsmithing. This is awesome considering I havent skilled up Goldsmthing in 5-6 months.

Picked this up in salvage.



I have been working on merits and THF. I capped out Hand to Hand and put 2 upgrades into Kicking. I also went a head and finally got Troubador for my BRD.

I picked up this with my Allied Notes after the update.



This will pretty much be my full time PLD body piece.

60 THF and Leathercraft skilling.

I lvled my THF and skilled up my LC on whims. Only did a few levels of each but progress is progress. I dont need LC leveled for anything, but it looks easy to level so I will probably finish it.

Picked up these 2 Salvage pieces:





I had a rough day crafting the other day and lost 1.2mill. But I worked my ass off to make up for that the next day and im pretty close to being back where I was.

I have been camping Odqan for the hell of it and am currently 0/17. I found a way to make acceptable money while I am there so I been doing pretty awesome dual farming at once. I think I may do this for now on because its a quick and easy place to get to to farm.

We are doing KS99 tonight, so I am hoping to make a decent bit of gil, but if I don't, no harm no foul.
