Yeah, rule of thumb is to never use any item while paralyzed, cuz you WILL lose the item and not get the effect. Losing it on an anni band sucks.
Sae can't get an anni band, cuz she's lol n00b and doesn't qualify. XD
I crashed early so I didn't get too far, I still got level 22 though. Goal is to have 30 by Christmas.

Well tomorrow I will finally get to check things out. Look for little Hortario running around lost.
I was looking at the come back thin but it requires you to pay again. Not something I want to do right now. I already pay for wow and vanguard.
Anyway I will look for people tomorrow

I actually managed to play a bit yesterday. I got Red to 33, so she can wear full RSE now. WOOTGA! that made me quite happy. Dancer sub rocks! As long as I have TP I can save my magic for enfeebling. I played too long, got a headache, and regretted it, but I did get to see Yuehunei IN game! I am so thrilled that so many are rejoining to give this another chance. So many things have changed. I am loving that I am getting treasure chests when I kill things now, and get good stuff. may drag dnc back out in a day or two, but need some rest after the too long on the computer day yesterday. I learned Phalanx, and Dispel. Both VERY useful tools.
again, its great to see you guys.

Sold some of the high end duplicates I had after nuking Kari and I have 950k now but I still need more if I'm gonna keep from having to farm. Plus I want my WHM stuff back. >.>
I'm gonna try to garden the chocobo items but I dunno how well it's gonna work out with having to watch the days again. I have Moghancement: Gardening on Ghered and Rainbow would get it after I got him stands and pots but well, I remember having a hard time getting to my houses on time, let alone *remembering* to check them in the first place.
Been TRYING to get the new spells on WHM, PLD, and BLM but just haven't found the time, or the damn NPC has been kidnapped. By Monday I should have a completed list of what I'm getting rid of, it's nearly done, but I won't have the time to sit down and play with it til Sunday night.

Dejibo has been stalking either Haty, or Bendegeit Vran for months now. Bene boy only shows up on the west side of Craig of Dem on NEW moons. Haty shows up in scattered places on the FULL moon, but you have to hunt for her. Both drop that Rogetsurin. Its a throwing disc for dancer/and other jobs. Its REALLY hard or VERY expensive to find a throwing disc for dancer, or blue. I bought one when dancer got to level 20 but paid 100k for it, and was pissed, when a free one can be had with patience. The NEW moon was this morn at 7am EST. Crack of dawn time. I left Dejibo on Craig of Dem just in case. it was 11:30 by the time I signed on, defeated, I knew I missed it again. I saw a tremor ram, and killed him in anger. He did a Max HP down and got me to 125 HP. who cares? I was grabbing a birdie to go home. Dont want to waste my warp scroll I have on me. I stepped towards the bird renter, and WOW, there he is! me with NO HP, and others headed for him. I pulled back an arrow, and let it fly! do or die I was gonna try. He smacked me once, and i went down to 23 HP. I cure waltzed and cured 3 my way into the yellow zone, and kept smacking. My evasion was great, and he rarely hit me thank Altana. Took a few, but he finally died, and coughed up the treasure of a Rogetsurin of my very own! You just cant imagine how happy that made me. I have spent months hunting, and hoping, and had completely given up. I was going home in defeat. so yea me!
I planted full gardens on ALL mules except Yha and Dej. All else have a garden. Yha doesnt have the room, and Dej needs the space for gear, not gardens.
My trick is that I plant on Sunday, Water on Wednesday, and harvest on Saturday. Plant on lighteningsday, water on water or lighteningsday. and check on water or lighteningsday. Either of those two days will give you nice yields. If you forget to check, you still get nice yields, but to check almost always doubles the crops. I water with water. if you water with Earth on the same days, you get Vomp carrots which sell quickly on AH. All other stuff just gets dumped on NPC sales. No wait for AH, although most stuff sells quickly. When you start getting worms, or weird stuff like pebbles, change your crops for a week, or rest them for a week, and it will refresh them back to HQ grasses. I get between 40 and 80k per week per mule.
I plant with Wildgrass seeds, bought in White Gate, mhuara ferry dock dude. 320 each. Water with a water crystal for grasses or earth for carrots. plant/water/check on either lighteningsday or watersday. NEVER on fire. You will get a few fire crystals to start, and some gause grass, but in a week or two, your buckets will be full of tokko, or carrots.

How do oyu freakign take screenshots? I found the option to change the shortcut, use it and nothing happens.
I found the way to fix my resolution problem. Made the game run nicely and its pretty crisp. In the city its a FPS nightmare cause i made it super high and i think all the christmas stuff is kiling it, i just need to tone it down a little.

You need to get rid of the game interface first. I can't remember how to do that. I think its Num-Lock? And you press Print Screen to take a screen.
Or use Fraps.

I played with Seak for a bit, and we did some Christmas stuff. I got a plus one robe, a plus one pair of boots, and a bell ringer to smack things with. I am VERY happy with those boots.
I managed to find Hortario and gave him a pearl. Will look for Vachir at some point.
ok, well, I am spent, and had enough. My pockets are filled with candy canes, and candy rings and chocolates and puddings. I have smacked things till I am weary.
Thanks to Steph for alla the holiday help. as usual you rock those things.

Maybe for those who are having issues pronouncing Sae's name, it's said like this. Sae, like the word Say. Kei, like the the letter K. And On, is well, On. So, Say-kay-on.
Had fun with Dej today. Glad you got your booties. I got my Dream Bell +1 later on after you logged. Saw Kikaro for a little while too, glad you seem to be having fun playing.
We will get a pearl to Vachir sometime. XD
Hoping to get some EXP on my WHM tonight, I need to get rank 5 soon.

subtle like a hurricaine. You can steal yha to aba to help you anytime.
Glad you got your bell. I have some plus one Bard weapons you can borrow if you like. I know you will return them when you pass their levels. Have you upgraded your mog house? Wanna steal a bronze/mohagany/nobles bed? osiyo is stuck, and can cough up the mohagony for you. Abacia will cough up the bronze, or Dej will share her nobles. Abacia is sitting on a tenshedo invite that came from you, might as well use it, unless you want to do the easy bastok quest to get it again, and regain some fame for it.
Am pooped from the playing from the last few days, but got some major things that I had been whining about. Those plus one boots are simply a dream, and that rogetsurin was a PIA, and I had been hunting that bad boy for months.
I too would like that plus one bell, if you feel like working on it for her.
Thank you for alla the help. its nice to have alla you back again.

I whacked some boxes with my pitiful staff last night. Got the dream robe. I got some key item that says i need to talk to a moogle but the moogles wont talk to me.
I got black mage to 5. WOO. I know its pretty low but meh. Had some fun and made some cash so I upgraded my staff, and armor. got my spells and went ahead and bought the map for that San something place.
those Black jelly things sell quite well.
I should probably go look for some quests as right now all ive done is sat outside windhurst and slaughtered animals. im to the point I can just solo them with my staff if I want to, and still get 60 exp a kill. Not bad, i seem to remember them not being worth hardly any exp last time I played once you hit level 5.
I figured out how to take screen shots. they should really change that option under the config that lets you assign a button to screen shots, since it doesn't do a damn thing.
I will upload them later to see if I can show off the high resolution graphics. I wish the textures were better, but this makes the game look a lot better than when I first logged in. There are no jaggies and everything is nice and crisp. I have shadows on, which for a game this old I was actually surprised at the shadows. they look really good on players/enemies.
I did not notice anything when I turned bump mapping on. Kind of disappointed there, but again, I know its an older game.
I may try to get into the dunes before my trial runs out. we shall see. Maybe we can play with this level sync thing, I assume I need to be level 10 right?

Yeah level 10 is the lowest level for syncing. Most people won't level at the dunes when they hit 10 nowadays though. They tend to solo / duo / trio to 15+. Hell, these days you could probably duo or trio easily to 30 and more. >.> I haven't seen anyone since I've been playing. But the problem is I won't have a lot of time on during the holidays. It's not a good time at all for me so chances are you won't see me until the new year. I like Dej's LS a lot actually since I've been in there. I haven't had the chance to be on for long periods with them yet, but I've had lengthy discussions with the leaders wife about doing Sky with them, which I'm looking forward to actually. They really want my RNG there and are willing to help me out by getting coffer keys and first dibbs on RNG items... so it all sounds good. Unfortunately, I won't be starting until the new year, but I'm looking forward to that and seeing how things pan out. Would be cool if I could get *anything* from there though. In any case, I won't see you until new year now in game.
