Finalllyyyyyyy, I managed to do everything I planned for before expansion came out, with a little over a week or so to spare. x.x; What took the longest for me to complete was leveling the DPS classes. Ugh, going from queuing all the time as a healer, to a DPS? /wrist. I felt like I was crawling through the queue times to get a party. I made it though! level 50 bard, and level 50 ninja. Bard first started off just to get Quelling strikes @34, but I decided to go all the way with it, huehueuhesexualpunshue, and it was pretty fun. I don't actually play the class that often, or do anything with it, but I collected a couple Dreadwyrm pieces, and the Dreadwyrm bow too, so I figured I'd finish the class and add another DPS class under my belt besides Blackmage and Summoner. When it came to leveling Ninja, my motivation was more selfish than anything. Growing up, I played, and loved (still love it) a series called ".Hack//" and in each trilogy the main character was a class that was able to wield twin blades, or in Ninja's case, twin daggers.
So to have some nostalgic fun I decided to get Ninja to 50. Not to mention I haven't been able to set up my PS2 yet T_T;. Not to mention it seemed like a really fun melee class to play as well. I do plan on leveling the other classes as well, I'm currently interested in Dragoon just because of it's skill set at 50 + expansion is pretty much revolved around Dragoon class, so why not? Right? Other than that, I think I'll honestly just get every other class to 30 for soulstones, and some to 34 for cross-class skills. Not a lot of time before expansion, and I'd like to start the early access with a full stack of rest exp >:] There's also an achievement for completing all the soulstone(job) quests for every class, so even more of an incentive to get working on it! Other than battleclasses, for a long time I've have all crafting to 50, and even all gathering to 50, and believe me, as fun as it may be for other people to do fishing, I was crawling to the finish line on that class. x__x Towards the end I practically cleaned out the marketboard of all the leve turn in fish because I got extremely impatient with fishing one by one >>;. All that matters is I was able to get everything I wanted to 50 with time to spare and relax. Super happy for myself there (:
Alongside leveling, I've been chasing after all sorts of achievements, because who doesn't love hoarding useless points in hopes they become of use later on? The one that took the longest that I've wanted since I saw it, was the Needle of Luminary achievement, otherwise known as the "A Weaver's Life for Me". It honestly adds nothing to your crafting, and it's more of an "e-peen" thing if you know what I mean. huehuehuehue. orz Which basically proves I have no life :D! I also finally got my Botanist Lucis! So now I've completed both sides of the Lucis relic line: one for crafting, and one for gathering. ;-; /tears of joy. I can get so motivated to do things, and then quickly get lazy and tell myself "I deserve a day off of working on this", and then that turns into weeks off .__. #rektmuhself. I think if I had kept my momentum that I had when I was very determined, I'd probably have another Lucis or two by now to be honest;;. Maybe I'll work on another one, been gathering a lot of seals thanks to all this fate grinding to level Ninja to 50. XD; Only time will tell!
My raid group and I decided to tackle T6 Savage before we took our month break before Alexander. After all our farming was done we decided to sell, and after we got bored of that, we decided to challenge ourselves. Surprisingly, T6 Savage only took about.. 5 hours in total to down. It was a lot of fun reliving the old fight through Savage mode, and it brought back a lot of SCoB raiding memories as well. I wish we would have gotten around to the Savages sooner, we were getting close to learnign the last phase in T9 Savage before our break hit us, but maybe I'll find another group to get it down. /fingers crossed. Either way the Savage's aren't going anywhere, and I'm sure once we get more free time later on I can wiggle my way into dragging the raid group back to Savages. Iwanthosetitlesgdi. COLLECT ALL THE THINGS orz someonestopme.All that's left for me to hunt down is the two fisher quests in the questing area of the achievements to get that section done, collect some misc. titles from all sorts of achievements, and eventually, hopefully, get the Frontlines pony mount, and Frtonlines ADS mount. Because I have a horrible mount collecting obsession. Speaking of unhealthy obsessions, I've been hoarding vanity pets as well, because I like to collect useless knickknacks, and I fully accept that. That Apkallu pet will 4ever be out of my grasp, stupid sightseeing log.
For the actual expansion portion of all this hubbub, I've been collecting mass amounts of +3% EXP food from botanist, and slowly gathering supplies for crafting. Not sure what will come in handy when I get there, but I sure as hell know that making anything in crafting will give me XP, so where's the harm in making some level 50 stuff to desynth? Though for now, it's back to the slow lane, and I'm going to enjoy the rest of 2.0's content as best as I can.
Hopefully for those of you who play(and have read this far) get all that you want done before expansion as well (: Best of luck everyone <3
BACK TO THE ACHIEVEMENT HUNT! orz i need help.
