thistlechaserNo less busy day than yesterday, but work was less sucky than expected (which will be the only day this month that happens on) so was somewhat better overall.
BRD static hit 61. Put my AF gloves on for the first time today. SE must have quite a sense of humor about BRDs. "Ha ha ha, we'll give them good abilities and have parties love them, but they're going to the ugliest people on the game to make up for it!" Look at my horrid gloves in action. And this stillshot shows just how bad my whole outfit is. I had really really thought that when I got to the 60s I'd look good as a BRD. >< I need new pants, but the RSE has a crapload of +MP and has +CHR. Those boots are ugly as hell, but they seem to be the best stats I can find. It's really the gloves that are the worst though. Off-pink (what the hell color are they, anyway?) and fricking fuzzy. I should wear my whole AF, it actually looks less worse as a whole than with the gloves alone. ><
Digging was bad, but good results (if that makes sense). Only one item in like 20-30 digs, but often it'd be something really good. Ended up with 1 adaman ore, 1 gold ore, 3 gold beastcoins (first fricking gold I've seen in three days), and 3 yellow rocks/3 red rocks (both 'rare' level items).
Did some crafting for skill, but the hides weren't available for a massive run (which was fine, I had no time). I actually caught two Narasimha hides up at the AH (for 10-fricking-K over their usual price of 30K), and was able to do two skillup synths for profit (maybe, Narasimha vest prices are falling fast). But best of all, I got a .1! Yay! Up to 98.5. Getting so close!
On this day a year ago, some wacky person on my flist asked for subligar screenshots. o.O So I went around posing with people, places, and things! With Beanie and Nif, with a rather phallic flower, with a war machine, in a holy place (but no holes in my subligar!), and in a pretty place. That makes me snicker now.
I have to post about anime sooner or later, but not tonight. Late! Zoom!

Date: 2006-10-11 04:04 pm (UTC)I've never seen SMN drop either!
I think one piece of BRD material dropped, but I didn't win it, and the guy that did borrowed 3 coins from me, upgraded his gloves, and promptly left the shell and applied to another one without ever paying me back.

Date: 2006-10-12 03:25 am (UTC)Limbus is the only thing I've really done in about 9 months of sea access, and after reading the horror stories from shells that actually do sea it seems like the only good reason to get it. D;

Date: 2006-10-12 05:35 am (UTC)I've done some of the NM stuff. I thought the fights were interesting the first few times, but it can get old to not see stuff drop. Sky has a much better time:reward ratio. But Sea opens the way to Limbus, rings, doing the Bahamut quests and getting the nice earrings from that, Obis aren't bad either. I'd like a couple more gorgets for my melee jobs, but few people leap at the chance to go hug a Stripga casting UFO (though that has its own amusement value...) So it's not really Sea itself that's the win (though the shortcut to safehold is nice), but all the other side benefits.

Date: 2006-10-12 02:22 pm (UTC)Sky is such a pain right now with ulli's aery. ; ; The first bahamut fight is kind of fun, didn't get any further than that because I hate scaling promyvions. I picked up the light obi but accidentally flagged the +hp healed while resting earring instead of +mp healed and I haven't talked to the NPC since.
The best luck I had with UFOs was fighting them as RDM WHM NIN, although even with the easy ones it took 40 minutes to kill them, especially since we (the RDM and I) had to run away every time it used charm. D: Somewhere there's a screenshot of the NIN hacking away at me with katanas and looooooling.

Huh, that's an interesting idea... I'll poke the others about it!
