So I didn't see one of these already, so i figured I'd throw one up.

Eartha Kitty is now a level 30 archer and level 12 pugilist. Just a few more levels and I can unlock bard and get back to the main story. Other than that I didn't get anything done in game.

Edit: And by the way, Lightning's back in Eorzea starting tomorrow for anyone, like me, who missed her last time

Whoa, played a bunch this weekend, lets see...

- Picked up my summoner relic. Smiley: grin
- The Swarm FC hit Rank 2, about halfway to rank 3. We are up to 11 members now. Thanks catwho! Smiley: grin
- Spent a lot of the weekend leveling warrior and running dungeons. Got him from (no kidding) 23-40 in 2 days. Warrior is OP. Seriously. Smiley: cool

I know I played a ton, but remembering what I did, specifically, is hard. Smiley: lol

My Archer is 23 now. Think I started the weekend at 4 or so. I leveled my Pugilist up to level 10. Did some hunting for my GC log (finished tier 2, waiting to do the promotion quest for when my Archer hits 30).

Ummm, I'm sure I did some other stuff, just can't remember it.

Not a lot on the leveling front.

THM 26 --> 28

But I did all ALL THE THINGS to clear dungeons off my quest list:

- Beat Good King Moogle Mog and got my WHM moogle wand (using it, hey it's iLvl 75, why not) on the second try
- Finished the 2.1 story
- Beat Ifrit HM on the first try
- Beat Crystal Tower and got my drop (WHM crown) on the first try

All of those were pickup groups. Smiley: lol

Beat T4 on Friday, first win there. Spent a lot of time leveling DRG 35-45.

Farmed in a bunch of Ultima and Garuda EX parties. Gathering up the accessories for BLM, Bard and WHM. Kind of sad When I get a Ultima Drop and then the next day get a Garuda drop for the same slot. Ok, sad is the wrong word. Now Ultima Ring of Aiming will forever sit on a shelf though.

So biggest thing I learned is to research BiS to best decided where to spend time before spending hours in farm parties. Also can make sure to buy you BiS Myth gear first. Imagine shelving some AF2, ouch.

On that note, check out this [link= http://www.ariyala.com/ffxiv/gear.html ]BiS calculator[/link].

Got dragoon to 50, making it my 12th level 50 job.

Started Thaumaturge, got it to 17, then got bored.

Started fishing, loved it, and went from 1 to 19 in a matter of hours due to the leves i had saved up. Fishing is awesome!

I capped myth for just the 2nd time since playing (hate grinding & BC being unfriendly to our brds... not a single drop yet). We got up to phase 5 of BC Turn 4, soon this will be in the win column for our group/fc.

Capped myth and got a bracelet for WHM.

Ran garuda ex with FC but had a tough time keeping MT alive. Controller quit working and had to log

MNK from 30ish to 41. And I'm 1 accessory from hitting 50 and putting on full DL

Really enjoying the change of pace from heals to DPS.

100% true. Dropped a bundle of philosophy tomes on a darklight healing robe, immediately afterwards joined CT and got the lvl 80 healer robe. =/

Myth Gloves for my War. Only need body and feet now.
Fishing from 12 - 26
and many failed duty finder Titan HM runs. I stopped trying from past failed attempts more than a month ago but decided to try again. All failed runs, but came damn close at times.

Grats Gnu on turn 4 win! It's a good step compare to the difficulty of turn 1-3 :)

On my side I focused on crafting a lot. I had some Levee to burn so:

goldsmith 34 > 50!
Only 2 more DoH class to go :)

I've given myself the laughable task of opening up the entire Fishing Log. Which means not only catching one of every fish in the game, but also fishing from every fishing hole in the game. This weekend I finished up the Black Shroud and started in on La Noscea.

Are you in the FC Shinies! of Midgardsormr? We happened to have one of our members do exactly 34-50 GSM in the last few days and only has BSM and ARM remaining to level.

Sorry no, I'm on Ultros.

Alchemy and Leatherworker left to do. For some reason, I'm dreading those 2.

Alchemy is a pain, but turning in potions for leves (HQ hi-potions to be exact) can net you cheap levels. But as leatherworker, concentrate on getting the new craft bonus from making each item the first time and you will actually profit, since a lot of ltw stuff is worth 1000+ gil. Also, the Quarrymill or Costa triple turn in leves reward you with a ton of boarskin, which when converted to leather sells extremely well, even now.

Most of my accomplishments this weekend were crafting related. I leveled BSM and ARM to 40, LTW to 38 and CRP to 37.

While not an accomplishment, I did finally play black mage in dungeons for the first time.

I wiped to Titan Extreme for 6 hours Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Spent anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half in several party finder groups. Now I am really familiar with the critical road blocks in this fight (e.g. heart to adds is pretty much the pass/fail point for a group, even if everyone knows the remainder of the fight) and aware of the fact that ex primals, especially titan, are rather hardcore content. You almost need a static to succeed on this fight because of how unforgiving the mechanics are. I could have downed turns 1-4 long ago with the amount of dedication I've given this fight (and the amount of dedication required of anyone doing it).

On the plus side he can't touch me anymore. His moves just don't work. I dodge him in autopilot now.

Busiest weekend in 14 I've had in a while.

On Hito Yu:

Got Hito Yu's MNK to 50 last week so that meant..

-MNK relic on Hito Yu
-Ran Garuda through Ifrit Ex to replace relic with Hellish Claws
-Ran T1-T2 with a pug group and finally got to see this enraged 'strategy' (not fun at all :( ) but picked up some wrists from T1
-Ran CT till I got the Fuma Koromo
-Leveled LNC to get invigorate; should have b4b in a few days with duty roulette

On Hitome:

-Did a bunch of extremes for people/farming and picked up a few accessories I needed on off jobs
-We actually ran coil on the weekend for once. Melee loot, tank loot, DRG spear -_-
-House party in Limsa for a FC that bought the first large house on Midgard

Was nice being immersed in 14 again! I hope everyone had a great weekend and has a good week.

spent most of the weekend gathering & crafting, almost have my gsm luminary - another 350 ish crafts in the 31-40 range to go.
http://puu.sh/6J7Lc/20863f8a3f.jpg
end result of 3 days spiritbinding, 1.7k ingots later
turns out gathering's not bad for sb too, instead of going naked to save on repair bills, can eq craft gear and convert that easily.
but DoL luminaries seem really easy to achieve in comparison to all the mats required for DoH luminaries..

Had a much better weekend than last.

>Got our 4 new LS members, a WHM, a SCH, a DRG, and a BRD up to Garuda on their relic quests.
>Capped myth and got my SCH relic body.
>Made a bunch of gil selling Philo items and got me a Rose Gold Circlet and some materia to meld. ilvl 75 at last.
>Farmed Ultima and got the Choker of Fending for my WAR to go with my Heavy Allagan Armor from last week.
>Introduced my LS to Crystal Tower. Got drops for the DRG, MNK, and our LS PLD, who was finally able to retire his Trashcan armor for the Crown of Light and Myth body to much applause.

Been a damned good weekend, if I say so.

Very busy weekend... I barely say the light of day.

- Beat Titan Ex and Ifrit Ex for the first time! When I beat Titan 3 of us were left standing... it was down to the wire. w00!
- Got my CRP from 26-50 and about halfway to my Saw of the Luminary! w00
- Helped a friend complete his relic weapon quest, and got my brother halfway through.
