All Good Things Should Come In Pairs

LIKE HOT WOMEN!!! I mean, like the nights of gear that I get! Last week I had 2 pieces of gear drop to me in 1 night and last night I had 2 pieces of gear drop to me in 1 night. All Dryadic gear that is worth while is now mine. Dryadic Body and Dryadic Legs can now be added to my collection of gear that needs to be uncursed. It is a great feeling coming ever so much closer to getting all the gear I want in sky. Now that I think about it, I believe I only have 3 or 4 pieces of gear from sky that I don't yet; W Hands, N Hands, N Body, and I believe either M Head or M Hands. I would count Osode but I could buy that if I really wanted to.

Another plus from yesterday is that I found a quick hour long party and was able to get about 10k from it thus gaining me level 65 on SAM. I am really hoping to have SAM at 70 by Sunday because Sush and Mac left me in the dust in leveling, but in my defense they have way more time than I do to level. It is really good to see some people in the LS working towards leveling new jobs that are actually useful, like we could use Sush on DRG for angon (or whatever its called) since we maybe only have 1 or 2 in the LS right now and then having Mac as another SAM would definitely be nice because I'm sure he loves to be on RDM/WHM for Kirin as a back up healer or a substitute WHM. I just wish other people in the LS would take more of an initiative to level another job as diligently as them. I am trying, but well I can only move so fast with something IRL almost every night then having my gf take up my weekends.

As for this coming week and weekend I should hopefully have time to get my SAM to 70 because I won't have any gf duties until next weekend (last weekend of January). All of my free time in game will pretty much be spent trying to level my SAM as it has been for a little while now. I just really want to see what my SAM will be like when I hit 75. It is kind of exciting to have the prospect of another 75 job because I have a lot of gear waiting already for when I get up there. Right now I'm only missing a few pieces like Osode, Brutal Earring, and Hagun. Osode I will eventually get through the LS but the Brutal Earring I'd like to try to farm up the coins on my own because there are some pieces of AF+1 that I would really like to get like AF+1 Hands for SAM, AF+1 Hands for BRD, AF+1 Hat for BLM, and possibly some other pieces.

Right now my biggest problem that I see long term is storage space. I discovered last week that storage in your Mog House caps at 80 which is not exactly what I was hoping for. That means I have no maxed out COMPLETELY my possibility for expanding space on Treubond ... not cool. This makes me wonder how other people can have all these jobs at 75 and be able to still have gear for them all. I do have a feeling that when my SAM hits 75 my WAR may be retired since in order to really deck out my WAR I would really have to drop some gil on some nice pieces like Unicorn and Dusk which I'm just not ready for or honestly really willing to do. I just see more potential for SAM than I do for WAR for what I would need gil and space wise. As far as another few pieces of gear that I may need for SAM, gorgets. Gorgets is not something I look forward to nor do I really think I would drop that much time in sea to get them because I dunno if I feel that they would be worth the upgrade for me because I think I would prefer spending that time leveling another job in my eventual quest of Maat's Cap.

As for my next job to 75 (or Maat's Cap level) after SAM I have already decided to do MNK as some of the gear I have right now crosses over so well and I could sell my Fuma Kyahan when I hit 72 on MNK which will be a much welcome couple hundred thousand gil back. I also have D Body which is probably the biggest piece that any good monk should get. Monk will also be a good help in case of us needing another monk for Salvage ... if we EVER start it up.

This evening I have an early basketball game at 6:30 so that should give me plenty of time to get another party on SAM and possibly crank out some good exp before having to head up to sky again.

Quote of the Day:
I think people passed out, including Sush again
- unknown, but it was like 4:30AM and I was one of the passed out people, I woke up in LaThiene lol
