Assorted FFXI foo

[thistlechaser]

I spent a couple hours soloing SAM in Ronf_S. The beetles were EP--, so the XP per kill wasn't hot, but nonstop killing got me 5K in two hours (plus a stack of beetle jaws, which Fishingbot needs for skilling). Got to SAM 32! The beetles are still EP--, so I suppose I chould get another solo level out of them. Best of all: no idiots! Just an IT++ bones that stalked me every nighttime. c.c

If veloxe weren't a galka, I'd kiss him! I took his idea of fishing in the pond in the Glacier to break my rods, and it worked! It was slow because my fishing level was too low (I'm 62, the fish were 90), but I actually caught a couple, and a couple arrowwood logs, too. c.c Broke two rods! Took maybe four hours, but that was better than my last attempt.

A good thing happened yesterday, but I forgot to post about it:

Got my first elemental ore while chocobo digging! Usually I avoid digging during those moon phases (everywhere's dug out), but this time I tried it and yay! Chaser's going to use it to skill goldsmithing. Between a dug up ore (assuming the synth to bead doesn't fail) plus an ori ring made from ori ores I dug up, it will be a level 74 ring made for totally free!

I loved doing ladybugs in Ronfaure [S] as bst, they're good in your high 40s.

I'm just taking SAM to subjob levels, so unfortunately it won't go that high. Too bad the birds and lady bugs are IT and yet right next to the EP-- beetles...

Colibri don't aggro.

Ladybugs, though, are a real problem. They're supposed to have "very narrow cone vision," but that didn't stop me from getting all kinds of adds while exping bst.

Yeah, I had problems with ladybugs while running to Campaign sometimes. :/

I've got a few beetle jaws on Izaku that I was just saving to sell once I got a stack. If you want them, they're yours.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

They're worth good money! You should sell them! <3

Oops, and I forgot, I finished skilling on them at lunchtime today. But thanks anyway! :P

Hahahahahaha!

This happens soooooo often in the LS because our names are so similar. Veloxe didn't suggest breaking rods in the Glacier. Vorloxu did!

Poor taru, this always happens to him XD

I <3 you too though thistle, ya stinky hume.

btw congrats on the (potentially) free 74 ring.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Oh man, ack! Your names are way too close! :P

And thanks!

I'm insulted D:


But I'm glad the pond worked for ya lol

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Oh ack, sorry! And thanks! :D
