Final FoV augment, Gration and Hydrawr


No more tabs, guess that's it for me unless I start farming high-level FoV (hint: I won't) for tabs :\

I got myself a picaroon's shield for 150k from someone's bazaar. Whether that's a good price or not I don't know, but I do know I can get at least 150k profit from the 100% Tatmi shield drop.


I dusted off my magic damage set to give it a try, even though his -aga is easily out runnable. I was curious.


I took him up to the river this time, instead of the previous duos I did with juli by the shed on the way to riverne. There's lots more room and no aggro so it's even easier to outrun him. I kept losing claim during the fight, which had me concerned about him dying to dot unclaimed so I stopped dot around 5% and did the rest with nukes. The shield went from 400k > 350 > 300 in the past month, but there's none on the AH so I might try to bump it up to 350 again. Chances are someone awesome will undercut by 100k just because I put mine up and I'll end up making a loss from this whole venture thanks to AH tax.



We did a couple of Tinnins, which got us an Alkalurops, couple of bodies and a hat. I think we're doing the Cerberus guy later, not sure about Tyger (pity cause I would have wishlisted Aurum body if we were). But one mystery remains: where are these pop sets coming from?! We haven't done any T3s in the LS, and nobody's mentioned it so I can't really contribute what I have left over from the ZNM soloing I did a while back (though it's mostly the seal from Armed Gears...).

Halloween and hell hounds

So, I got asked to help kill Cerberus. "Eh, why not?" I ask myself


Killshot and free title for me :D

Afterwards, I got Juli to help me do the halloween event for a pitfork, for which we decided to start at Bastok. My stable-warp necklace is now exhausted (I think I can get more from this event?), so I need to take the stupidly long route of tele-dem > chocobo > Gustaberg N > Gustaberg S > Bastok. On the way, I come across this puppy;


Which can spawn anywhere in the zone, once per night on a full moon. So it's not entirely common to see. At least the drop is 100%.


So, I get to Bastok, get pitchfork, go to windy, get HQ. Done. As much as I like to act the jaded cynic, it's still fun to run around like a dumbass in costumes :3

Other stuff I did a while ago but got too lazy to add it:


Kvazz got a failnaught for his RDM, so I made him go RDM/RNG and shoot it at things for my own amusement.


Yes. Armed Gears. I still had a pop to use, and now I have homam I don't need Aurum for DRG so I let Juli have the boots if he got a party together for it. I nabbed the grips, which I've failed to sell either of. [insert QQing about how the boots drop now that I don't need them]

I had time before Limbus, so I went to do the ACP afterglows quest again in Fei'Yin. Who knows, I might just get an acc+7, STR/DEX+2 mantle!


...of course, I wasn't aware that I'd failed to use the last key I got.


One more for the bin, I guess?
