The last few weeks have been interesting. After my sky shell Retribution broke up, I wasn't sure if I wanted to do sky anymore... Liyah and Riprolaud managed to convince me to move over to their shell xCorex though, and for awhile things were ok. Of course, after a few more weeks of runs, I got burnt out on sky again >.> and started dodging farming. Slowly our numbers dwindled, and just a week ago a majority of the shell decided to break.

Sky is repedative enough without having 2 shells break on you : / So, I think im done with it until I get a few more jobs that can use the good sky stuff.

In other news, I've managed to level my COR to 60 now. Its going to stay there until I get my Shark gun (need 9k more Imperial standard points still >.>) and until I get my RNG from 31 to 37.
Oh yeah, I also need to farm up about 300k more gil to buy the last few dice >.> I don't know why Corsair has to be so expensive...

I've also leveled my beastmaster from 13 to 20 and re-discovered how much I like the job. So, maybe I'll put COR on the back burner for awhile. Leveling BST could help me make some much needed gil too...so, theres that argument :P

Yesterday I did two Jailer of love fights! They both were very smooth, our first dropped the Halberd and a Novia earring, our second is where things got interesting though. About halfway though the fight, JoL spawned a group of sharks and they proceeded to use 3 instant TP attacks on our BLM party: 1 shotting 5 of us... Thankfully our melees were able to hold off the pets while the blms got back up and unweak, but it was scary nonetheless @_@;

Our vigilance was rewarded with full JoL drops (Novio went to Dirtyfishydish ^_^ congrats!) and a guest appearance by Absolute Virtue! @_@.... I sent a chump-shot thundaga III his way and proceeded to get Wynav raped. xD

All in all, I've been enjoying FFXI at a slightly slower pace than usual.
