Fashion is the way

Beside cookies, my other passion is fashion.
Inspired by this magazine



(a wonderful Japanese magazine depicting the best fashion tips for Tarutarus with the quest required to obtain them) I thought I will start today a fashion guide for the FFXI people!
Being a fashionist is not an easy way, at all. It's difficult and time consuming and of course a gil sinker... but it's fashion, as it should be!

So, let's start:



In the first frame we can see a Monk.
Being a monk doesn't allow you to wear such an ugly combination of pieces. A male, expecially a hume, should never, and I say NEVER, wear that harnesses, except in party (Party is a peculiar situation where fashion style can be suspended for Exp reasons °_°) or you will be the at people's mercy. Please have a look at the new equip and I'm sure you will find something more appropriate than bare legs!
Being Galka and Red Mage is a problem.
But not always, as you can see in the second frame. Taken in the Far Eastern capital, this pic is of a famous Galka of the server (Hades) and he's showing a big fashion sense. Goliard is a piece of absolute perfection, matched only by Morrigan, and adding the Duelist Chapeaux is a wonderful fashion idea, and also almost the only headgear a Red Mage should wear. So, fellow RedMages, start NOW your career of fashionist and do a lot of Dynamis, fighting one of the lowest drop of the Dynamis area! Good luck!

The third Frame is me as a Summoner.
This combination of pieces is horrible, but being Campaign is forgivable, since while fighting we can forgive if the equipment is not aesthetically perfect. Almost.
As a Summoner, I know, you have such a little pieces for your body. But why not Vermillion or the AFv1 or v2? Almost everything is better then cheap body! So don't be lazy and go exp or farm!
Your fashion sense will grow a lot fighting trash mobs for a better purpose: to be perfect!

Oh my!

A lot of new things to do, a lot of old things to set up before I can start this new life.
In the meanwhile I'm having fun with the new update SE gave us few days ago.
I would like to mention the absence of any real Dancer thingy, but since I found the new Missions and the new contents really nice, I guess I will not say a word about it.
We Dancer are still waiting for merits and AFv2 but looks like we will wait a lot for that two.

The new storyline is very very nice. Finally something I can enjoy even if I don't have a whole party of uberFriends to help me.
I was very very angry about COP, not for the fact they were difficult (I do really like challenges) but due to the fact they were "impossible" without a proper group. Looks like SE learned a lot from that distant mistake and it's giving us something that we can enjoy even if on a casual player basis.

When I will be finished with moving (somewhere in September, I believe) I will finally leave the lines of casual players, but since then I'm wondering what this game has to give to people who don't have time to play it properly.
I saw that the new relics are, of course, a big effort to do. And it sounds fine. I'm not the kind of people who need the ultimate weapon to be happy... even if I hoped for something different... and how things looks like for now, the new relics are even more difficult to have than the old ones.


BUT
let's change subject! The FFXI Blog world is full of people speaking of the update and the new items, I leave you to their capable minds!
Me is a Dancer, the silly Dancer, so I give up on complaining and I try to unravel the mysteries  of Vana'diel


Will this be the future that awaits our beloved Windurst? Will we be able to save it from it's future of horror and despair?
What we saw after fighting the battle of La Vaule, is just a vision or an ineluctable that we will have to fight to avoid destruction?



And what this little dancer hide? Is what she claims to be? Another pawn in the scheme of the Royal Feline? Is the cat good or evil?
And, finally, the ultimate question: where are the Champions of the Dawn and what's their place in all this events?

We can't know for sure!
And while waiting, we enjoy a bit of Campaign fun!

I do believe she's a real Mithra!

Meow Meow Meeeeow

Days of intensity

These were days of intense and rewarding exp.
Beside the boring exp parties I found, I was able to make a lot of nice exp session with a variety of different job combination. Almost in every combination the healer had to sit and watch, due to my super power cures muahahahah


Here you can see me fighting a pink bird with another DNC in party. Wich was a lot less lazy then me and cured a lot! Good lady! ^^
So party after party finally I got my reward:



FULL DANCER ARTIFACT ARMOR! l33t

It's unbelievable cute, I know!
Expecially the shoes, with a little cute red ribbon and a green heart!

But with levels went not only the AF but also
DANCING EDGE
I know, I know, maybe for you this is nothing! BUT you must remember me that I was a Bard, and then a Red Mage and I never ever got Dancing Edge nor I did in any way significant damage to exp mobs.
So, with the help of a couple of flourish, I'm able to do a solo skillchain and that's thrilling for me, beside the fact the damage output is not bad at all


A small toke compared to proper DD jobs, but since this is my first melee job, i'm more then happy with this: my very first Dancing Edge!
Now I will study how this ws work and maybe I will be able to collect some equipment to make it stronger!

Then, running like a chocobo (Chocobo Jig ftw) in the streets of our beloved Windurst, I made an unexpected encounter:

Sylbianna the silly scholar! She was fishing and after some chitchat and a dozen of emote, I had to wave goodbye because it was too late for me!
Happy to see you again Sylbichan! <3

Guess who's back

A lot of things are changing in my life... some are for good, other for bad. But the changes are a force to reckon with so I follow the wave and I see where it leads me.

I started to play again, and nothing really interesting happened, so I'm merely posting a pic to  celebrate the most funny and fast party I ever had with DNC: a 100% Mithra party!


As you can see, it's a Mithra feast, and we were soo fast that the WHM had almost nothing to do except letting the dog out.
For Altana! We had a very competent Thief, a lovely DRK and I'm really starting to thing that DNC make the difference in a party. I'm now in the same level range that my SMN and I can clearly see that as Dancer I'm making this mythical difference (more or less as much I'm doing it as a BRD)! muahahahah
It's overwhelmingly funny and I hope I will be 60 soon, to wear my full AF!
For now I'm a proud owner and wearer of the magical:



A red rose shines on my head.
Yeaaaaah!

I'm still here

Wokr is keeping me busy.
But I'm still here lurking the forums and reading the blogs!

You will not get rid of me so easily!

Even if I'm back

It's not only work wich is keeping me away from beloved FFXI.
I've got a project, for the near future. I want to go to London for a while, a long while if I will be able, a little while if things will not start properly.
I don't have any particular expectation, beside the possibility of doing shopping in Camden Town.
Muahahahah

By the way, be ready.
Binahel will be back soon, before it's time to move to London I will have a few weeks of tight work and little free time I will invest in exping Dancer.

I want to spread the pink of Dancers everywhere in Vana'diel.
I was a bard, I know good stories. I will now dance in front of the fire once the stories are finished.
