Successfully converted all of my cruor into gil. It took a few dozen trips back and forth to Attowah buying and selling blinkers... but exchanged it all for the best over-all exchange rate... 265.2%.

I turned 1,780,000 cruor into 4,720,000 gil and some change.

Now it's time to start converting Dominion Notes into Gil. That'll take a while too. I have almost 800,000 of that lying around. I think the best exchange rate for it is a little under 175%... so I should likely get around 1,400,000 gil for it when all is said and done.

What have I done with all this gil, you ask? I bought all my BLM spells and some other assorted stuff that I've wanted for a while but never had the money to pay for.

All BLM spells (excluding Retrace) = Just shy of 2,000,000 gil.

Belt, Ring, Back and neck pieces for BLM = 1,000,000 gil

Ring and Belt pieces for SMN = 1,000,000 gil

I'm happy with my decisions and I still have 800k left over as fun money.

Well if you talk to Deidogg the shady aggressive npc in bastok mines I'm sure he can put you in touch with some taru loving mithra hookers for you to spend your "fun money" on

[Firewind]

The Guisarme has the best exchange rate IIRC. I do often cash in my Dominion Notes of those to turn them into gil for if I need some quick cash fast. It only takes a Buffalo party to earn a nice chunk.

71-85.99 (with 2 separate times of taking my merits to 30.99) & limit capped to 95 yesterday

Started selling blinkers, as well. But could only do 259% exchange at the time (guessing it was due to to the day or something NPC related; almost 100% sure I have capped fame, unless there a specific NPC that will always offer high). Obviously, I bought lunar abyssite, maps, all the abyssites before thinking of exchanging.

Helped Jarre with his Shadow lord fight while also forgetting completely that he has that Physical/Magical damage immunity thing due to it being about 2AM and went WHM/NIN... (I remember that I soloed it as WHM/SCH now)

The Skype conversation was hilarious too, two half asleep Brits wondering why the bloody hell I couldn't just Hexa Strike it to death.

[Squiggs]

Finished my Ice Damage Staff. My BLM is getting respectable.

[Jarre]

Killed maat first time at lvl 70. Thanks to Hayde and Firewind for helping me get paladin testimony.

[Romyro]

Capped staff for War & Mnk
Great Sword, Scythe and Polearm are left.

Too bad I cant use a GS/Staff/PA on Mnk. It was quite helpful getting revitalizers and using 100 Fists here and there.

[snewt]

Yesterday:Limit 10. Hit 99.
Next Goals: Level BST, DNC, WAR; up axe skill to cap
After: Profit, Dynamis!1!

VWNM city clears are going to be a pain, as well as grabbing the past maws. I wish they were as quick as getting the current maws for Abyssea (at least SE learned).

Felt pretty good about leveling to 75 BST with just straight up solo/duo/trio GoV groups; I thought it was only appropriate to finish the rest off in aby. For once I got into a good worms group that managed its members well--if anyone was AFK for more than 15 minutes the leader would kick them out of the group and so forth. We managed to cap all lights and rolled in over 250k an hour @600~ exp per worm. I ended up leaving at level 99 with 30 merit points. Placed two points into Ruinator and will be going back to finish that WS off once I finish my Ferine +1 set and whatever toy.

With the help of Cid, I was able to finish my ferine hand seals; I stopped by to check on Flame Skimmer and Sirrush, but surprisingly there were people at both camps so I decided to take a break for the night. No real plans tomorrow other than finish as many AF+1 pieces as possible. Looks I can do head and legs solo fairly well--body I'll probably need some assistance with (Koios and Ironclad's? Yuck.) and I still need to farm up the feet from gold pixis.

Had a pretty successful Salvage run last night. 2xBst/dnc @ SSR. Finished area with probably 10-15 minutes to spare. With a few more runs under the belt I’m pretty sure we can shave off another 10-15 minutes, finishing it around the hour mark. Once we both know the exact paths. Lost some time due to stopping here and there to re-read the guide…almost went the wrong way a couple times…recovered from a death…etc.

Took the right paths eventually though and got all 4 cotton pouches. 86 Alex over all with no purse off the boss. 35 Ukusane body piece too (for Rook). Could probably throw in a thf to get more singles off the gears.

Earning alex via salvage doesn’t seem to be an issue.
The problems I’m noticing more and more are…
-Finding a 1 or 2 people to at least get me in salvage
-Keeping up with winning assaults so I have enough points to enter (Imperial Agent Rescue is slowing me down atm /fume)
-It’s easy to make gil, but not as easy finding Alex sellers.

Doesn’t seem like a bad money maker though. Alex is averaging about 15k on cerb. So should we have decided to sell, we’d have made about 1.3m w/in an 1.5 hours.

Bst Dnc Smn Pup all 99, Categories fully merited.
H2h dagger and axe merit ws to lvl2.
Had a go at trading some blinkers. carried all I could in my empty slots. still had my gear and pet items on me but I made 700k roughly. I have barely used any of my cruor to make it too. It may not be millions yet but I think little and often will be better than a big dump, I'm worried SE will decide to be evil now I've jumped on the bandwagon.

decided to see how much of Cop I could do, Went from the one just after completing three paths and am now am ready to try Promathia. Solo is fun I don't have to mash buttons to get through the cs because people are waiting lol.

Next will be getting ready for Divine might "I think thats the suppanomimi one" and grabbing some people to do fenrir once more. I want my evokers ring /shakesfist.

May treat myself to a brutal earring and boxers mantle now too. They've been on my wishlist for a long time.

Oh I killed a Ufo in Sea too, I wasnt sure if they were dangerous, My Ls said they can be nasty if you are not prepared. I just run under them like a crazy mofo.

This reminds me:

I decided to put up my alex and dynamis money into my bazaar this weekend to help me make money to afford all the lovely things I've had my eyes on recently.

I had 1.5mil left over from my Cruor conversions... with an additional 400k tacked on as of last night from converting Dominion Notes... so roughly 1.9mil

I put all 39 of my alex up for 12k each to help them sell quickly as well as all my currency (50 or so mix-matched pieces) for 10k each. I also put up all my forgotten pieces from my various runs in Dynamis (30 or so of them) for 15k each. After a quick shout in jeuno to tell people I was liquidating, I sold it all in about 10 minutes for a grand total of 1.4mil... bringing my total to 3.4mil

I think I spent around 15 minutes dancing about my money before I spent almost all of it on gear for BLM.

Got that chain for BLM with +9MaB and +3% Crit Rate.... Stoichen or whatever as well as a new belt with +4MaB and a new Back Piece with +4MaB.

I finally get to use my Zodiac Ring, MaB Earrings (Moldy and the one from Rani) as well as my Twilight Cape!

So let's see:

Head: +6 MaB
Body: +7 MaB
Hands: +4 MaB
Legs: +6 MaB
Feet: +5 MaB
Ring1: Elemental Day Bonus
Ring2: n/a
Earring1: +6 MaB
Earring2: +5 MaB
Back: +4 MaB
Waist: +3 MaB
Neck: +9 MaB
Ammo: +2 MaB

For like... +57 MaB? Who's sexy? I'm sexy...

Oh and BLM 99. Ding. 5/5 Ice and 5/5 Thunder Potency Merits. 0/10 Category 2... because they're useless.

It felt fun to deal a consistant 4-6k Damage in Abyssea.

Now I have to upgrade all my AF3+1 gear into +2s and get myself at least 2 of the Magian staves... Ice and Thunder... and I'll be in business.
