My own little slice of Eorzea

Well, here we are once again, devouring yet more of this igxe couponongoing pie. Learning from the lessons in my last post i’m going to open up with my class levels right now. Once again, in descending order:

MRD41, MIN31, BSM19, PUG19, GLA15, CRP13

Wow. As you can see, between now and my last post, buy ffxiv gilmy Marauder has leveled up quite significantly, as has my Miner. My Blacksmith has also been leveled a little more but I found that as tedious as I did at first, so I likely won’t be unveiling much content about that.

I think I’ll begin with the easier part first, my Miner. igxe couponMining is a bloody grind. An epic grind. Luckily, I’m a patient bastard who can just put myself on auto-pilot and realise I’ve spent 2 hours gathering stuff. The other thing that allows me to continue the grind is the knowledge that it’s making me plenty of pocket money.

*As of this point onwards, worldpress ate my blog post, so it’ll now be a condensed version.*

 My mining grind pretty much picked up where it left off, spamming iron ore outside of copperbell mines. I did this right up until around level 21 until I decided to move on to elemental ores. This decision was in no small part aided by people crashing the iron market (asshats >.<).

The switch to these elemental rocks was horrific. I found that, even though they were obviously higher level items and therefore giving more xp per strike, the fact that the success rate was so much lower than iron ore led to me gaining much less xp overall, due to lack of chaining. It was at this point that I concluded that when gathering for xp you shouldn’t necessarily be going after the highest level nodes.

After grinding out to level 26 I then discovered that I could begin mining for crystals, this made me a very happy chappy as crystals sell for big bucks. Careful monitoring of the market can mean that you are earning upwards of 250 gil per crystal. I was more than happy to work towards 30 gathering and selling various types of crystals. Once 30 was attained I accepted my level 30 quest and set out for Camp Drybone
