My last final fantasy post that involved pictures and all that jazz was on July 1st, which means I will start with July in review. The real problem with procrastinating this update is the fact that I have no clue what the hell I did back in July... but I will still try to fill everything in to the best on my knowledge. I was leveling Sahyu in quicksand caves in July and she dinged fifty and hit level cap. I wish I would have known that a few weeks back when I was doing weapon skill points... wasted a tactic's pearl and signal pearl charge for absolutely nothing.

I don't really know why I lotted Dragoon head in Xarcabard... I didn't want it but it was gonna go rot drop and I guess I must of said "I can use it so I may as well lot it before it goes to waste." Either way it puts me at 4/5 Dragoon relic, only missing body from Beaucedine, which I could care less for but maybe when I have everything else I want I will go after it for armor storage.

I've dreaded Dusk Trousers ever since I bought them o' so long ago and with my salvage spam that was going on in Equilibrium I didn't have very many points to spare on anything, especially when the Double-Agent runs would not even pay for a whole permit seeing it was around 1400 points each time. I eventually had enough for Pahluwan with the points I had stored before I joined Equilibrium and the ones I earned from Double-Agent. It put me at a point cringe for quite a while but it was worth it.

Fold is one of the most useful Group 2 merits for Corsair other than Snake Eye in my opinion. Ideal Corsair merits for me would look like Group 1: Quick Draw Accuracy (5) and Quick Draw Recast (5) and Group 2: Fold (4) and Snake Eye (5) and Loaded Deck (1). People have been asking me that so I wanted to put that out there.I was working on that back in July but hadn't finished it.

In Equilibrium I received a Swift Belt on a linkshell event run, was about damn time I actually got one making me 1/19 I believe, after I got one I lost count. Thankful to the linkshell for that. It's just strange writing about a linkshell I am not in anymore and somewhat hard to show gratitude, maybe it's just me.

I was pressured to get my DRK to 37 on Axel for limbus as a Ninja support job. Took about three or four days but I got it to 37 and done with that. It's a fun job to sub and helps hate immensely.

Equilibrium was doing a KS99 run in July and I had a ton of extra seals to blow so I grabbed an orb and won a random. My drops weren't amazing but they made me some good money so I can't complain, especially after what some other people had drop for them. I made everyone walk back too :p oops!

Merited Dragoon to 75 with Taur and Woodz, not much to say about that except that it is finally finished and first thing I did was merit Angon for endgame events and everything else. Never used it too much though seeing who is gonna want a Dragoon over a Corsair? Still on my first stack of Angon too I bet.

Equilibrium did a Khim at one point with the usual shitty drops. The fulmation avoidance is always fun though. I want the see the faces of SoU and the rest of the linkshells that normally camp it (read: bot it).

I don't want to post too many pictures of salvage so I will just say most of the items I have received that aren't a full set. 25 Skadi feet from Long Bowed Chariot put me at 2/3 for those, missing the hardest of the group (35). Also received 35 Skadi Legs from ZR making another set that I am only missing one piece of. Only sets I have 35 for is Skadi Legs on Axel and Marduk's Body on Hyorin.

After the ENM spam me and Woodz were doing we finally got a Hagun which was pretty sweet (for my pockets.)


Hyorin:

I worked on my Thief merits some, placing initial merits into Assassin's Charge and Feint just to have them unlocked. I put a few levels in Triple Attack Rate as well, the difference is quite noticeable from none to capped.

My main focus in Dynamis in these last months has been items for Hyorin seeing I have almost everything I want on Axel at this point (minus Corsair Body and Ninja Hands +1 and Ranger Belt.) The first piece of relic I received in NoSephII was Summoner's Bracers which are an awesome overall piece. The +10 skill added on with merits, torque, etc. makes a nice difference when it comes to Blood Pacts, especially multi-hit, not to mention Elemental Siphon. At the current time I am 4/5 Summoner but when I got these I believe it put me at 3/5 Summoner Relic.


Just some pictures to leave you with until I do August a little later this week:
