YAY! I did it! All done! (FFXI)

(Edit: Sorry to all non-players for all the uncut images. This is a special occasion!)

How's that spelled? 'YATTA!'? The thing Hiro yells all the time on Heroes? Well that's me!

YATTA! YAY! WOO!



More than two years ago I desynthed something totally by chance ('Hmm, I thought I read that you could use a crystal to make something into something else. Let's try it!') and got a leather skillup, which started my skilling path. And here I am now! All done!



Yep! While waiting for hides to be listed so I could finish leather, I finished gold!



I can't believe I'm saying this, but gold 59->60 was nearly as bad as leather 95 . The skillups may have actually been slower, but luckily each synth cost less. It took about a million to do the last gold level. I have no clue how much 99->100 leather cost me, I totally lost track.

I didn't do much else tonight, just camped the Jeuno AH (which is actually less exciting than camping the guild store!). However, a, um, disturbing thing did happen at one point. I actually cried a little when I saw this. Um. What the hell am I doing to that Galka?! (And no comments about how hot it's making him!)

So YAY! All done! Finally! So very very happy! I'm looking forward to going back to the ultra-stress-free guild store camping/turning hides into leather for profit!

YAY!

Congrats!! :D Good to know you'll be less stressed in game, too. ;)

I hope so! Thanks!

o.O

What's next, fishing 100?


That galka... has a ball fire in/near his pants. D:

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Not unless S-E changes fishing back to the old system!

Thanks! :D

[onionkiri.livejournal.com]

Oh, and that galka picture is pretty hilarious -- totally reminded me of this entry (http://onionkiri.livejournal.com/6483.html) in my LJ, lol. But I think yours is better :D

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Hee! That's great!

[socksofjello.livejournal.com]

Oh my. Is that legal?

And congratulations on crafting!

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Ha ha, I bet it's not! And thanks!

[southern-hell.livejournal.com]

WOoo! Congrats :D I never finished cooking even though it's 194875764x cheaper out of sheer frustration, getting 100 is a true accomplishment.

On a related note, if you don't know YATTA!... does that mean you've never seen this http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6616479032362244465 O_o?
I'm suprised>.>

[makoholic.livejournal.com]

Don't show him that... I already know what's gonna happen tomorrow. ._.;
And congrats again, Thistle.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Thanks! And gah! *flees video*

[kerai.livejournal.com]

That was the first thing I thought of, too... D:

But after that: All those crafts! So jealous! m(_ _)m All I hear about leather these days is complaints about panther mask nerf but I'm sure there's more to it than that or more'll be added in upcoming updates. D; I'd kill to have anything at 100, really!

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Exactly! I'm just happy to be 100. I'm still doing the same synths I was doing 20 levels ago, so nerfs don't bother me. :)

[draymor.livejournal.com]

wow... that video is disturbing...

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Oh my god, that's horrible! I totally forgot about that and you made me remember! Heehee!

And thanks!

[iniadelphinae.livejournal.com]

Congratulations!

Now come over to Ifrit and make me a pair of moccasins, so I can finish the WHM AF2 quest. =P

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :)

And I wish I could do it for you! The problem would be (server thing aside) that I'd have about a 50/50 chance of HQing them. Unfortunately the HQ version doesn't even sell, so it'd be a total waste if that happened.

[doxxxicle.livejournal.com]

Congratulations! I didn't have the courage to even get Goldsmithing to 60. Well done :)

... now what? ;)

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Goldsmithing is really, really painful. x.x

And now? Going for my last leathercraft item (150K GP), and then... I have no idea! Heehee. We'll see. :)

[linmayu.livejournal.com]

Wow, congrats on 100! That's quite an accomplishment, especially with such an insane craft. :3

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'd smooch you, but girl-elves are icky.

;)

[genomeffxi.livejournal.com]

Grats on all crafts capped finally =P I did a little crafting a few days ago on gold from 57 to 58 but it was very casual, with a lucky .3, but I am taking it easier, and cloth I still left it at only 90 for so long =P
Then again i tend to never have more than like 300k on me at any time, you are so rich o.O (i almost never farm or craft for profit or do any activity that feels like "work" inside a videogame)

I bet now you will stop crafting completely very soon though o.O

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

I used to love farming (not so much now, though I don't usually hate it either) and I enjoy crafting a lot, so usually I have way more money than I know what to do with.

I bet now you will stop crafting completely very soon though o.O

I hope not! The only reason that would happen is what I'm running into now: I've totally restocked myself and restocked all my mules to be full of stuff to sell, so I can't craft because I have no more space! But once things sell, I'll be back to it. :)

[calandra.livejournal.com]

Congrats, Thistle. ^^

I need to work on my own crafting. (and farming to support it. ^^)


Let me know if you need any wool thread. I usually have some somewhere.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Since now I'll only need the thread for guild turn-ins, I should be okay. I have 2.5 stacks of it on hand, and when I use that up I'll make s'more! <3

Thanks though! And let me know if I can help with your skilling (if you need X item made so you can make Y item for skill).

[calandra.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Right now I'm on spider webs. (I know, I need to farming in the Empire, but I always end up doing something else).

I'm making rainbow thread. After that? RAINBOW CAPES FOR EVERYONE! ^^

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Oh, we farmed those spiders for Boose when he needed webs. They drop lots of them! And we all got XP/MP, too. Not tons, but enough to be really nice, plus weapon skill ups!

Poke me if you want help sometime. I can work on my axe o'trials. (I'm not HPed in Whitegate anymore though, so I'd be slower coming out.) I think a MNK would be able to solo them fine though, if you wanted to do it alone.

[calandra.livejournal.com]

I can solo them, but it's very slow. And sickle slash can be bad, if I was careless or greedy (I can do one more....) My major problem is finding time. Plus, 'dria hates farming spiders (she's whm, it's boring).

But if I get a chance, I'll be sure to give you a call. ^^

[sel-s.livejournal.com]

wow, grats! That's super impressive!

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Thank you! It's still making me grin, days later. :D

[kamalloy.livejournal.com]

I'm a bit late, but congratulations. That's totally awesome. ^^

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Yay! Thanks! :D *smooch!*
