Grinding level 50 Duties for fun and Seals, and discovering I can’t quite solo hard-mode Trails on my level 70 DNC. I got veeeeeeery close a couple of times on Garuda, and could probably have managed with a little bit better prep/actually learning the mechanics but meh. I’ll come back when I’ve finished the SB MSQ and have something better than the mid-60s levelling gear I currently have on. #ffxiv
Dinged level 70 on a completed map XP reward. Classic. #FFXIV
The Most Cursed #FFXIV Fact is that the Default Human Male Hero character who appears in all the trailers is named "Ardbert."
Woo! Guess who never has to grind Thousand Maws ever again~! #ffxiv
I thought I was done and nearly got ready to celebrate last night… until I realised I’d totally forgotten about Dark Knight. I can see why people like it (it’s pew pew flashy in a way Paladin and Warrior aren’t), but it’s very “heavy” in a way I’m not sure I like (even though technically it has the same GCD as everyone else).
Aw yis guess who just discovered command missions as a way to level and unlock those final two tanking jobs? #ffxiv
... today I realized you can link glamor plates to gear sets (I've been applying them manually like a noob this whole time) and now I can saw wood in a flannel like nature intended. #FFXIV
... I updated ReShade to GShade and now #FFXIV doesn't recognize my controller?
Whhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?
In other #FFXIV news I realized I could actually solo old Duties pretty easily (I think I tried before and failed miserably but, like... I have no idea what I was doing wrong?) so managed to grind out the last Grand Company levels I needed to... buy housing!
... Aa-aa-and like ten seconds looking at the property market was like "lol not happening," so I am indeed the proud new owner of Kobai Goten Apartment 20 in Ward 12 of Hingashi.
Four bara lionmen cuddling on the floor of the Grand Company office while a catboy looks wistfully on is the Most #FFXIV Mood I swear.
Doing the #ffxiv STORMBLOOD DoH/DoL grind and discovering I quite enjoy Gunbreaker in amongst the killing ten million wyverns for their hides.
It’s a job that looks complicated but is very easily macroable, which is definitely how I like them…
This post brought to you by constantly getting stuck on the #ffxiv title screen because I don't want to interrupt the opening cutscene when it auto plays.

(Also I'd like to have a word with Mr. Default WoL about his obviously hacked ability to change jobs mid-combat...)
I like #writing books and #monsters and writing books about monsters. Also the distributed #fandom web. I like that, too.
