Alright, so the end of my trade leveling is very, very nigh, and it's time to set my goals. As you see, I'm well deep into Endwalker, and my main is almost at level cap with most of the trade jobs - that is, the path is trodden, I know the twists and turns, and … Continue reading FFXIV: Depleted Leves & Crafting/Gathering Goals

FFXIV: Learning Scrips, Collectables and Deliveries
I think I'm in a good place today. Like I predicted, leveling trade jobs would take me about till the end of January, and I'm roughly there: I've burned all my leve allowances on alts, so I'm switching on my main again which has 100 to spend, and so can safely level through Endwalker. Frankly, … Continue reading FFXIV: Learning Scrips, Collectables and Deliveries
FFXIV: Tataru, Euprhosyne and Trade Job Progress
Let's start with the raid part, shall we? I figured out all Euprhosyne mechanics - and had to google just the fate cards and push back mechanic order on the council fight. Now I know them all and come prepared, my worst enemy is just myself (distraction, too much attention on rotation/hotbars rather than battlefield … Continue reading FFXIV: Tataru, Euprhosyne and Trade Job Progress
FFXIV Patch 6.3.: My Impressions
*spoiler alert: the content is not that vast to divide it into non-spoiler and spoiler parts, so I'll be discussing MSQ and raid questlines on the way. Approach with care! Well, I think I've seen it all by now: the main story questline and the raid questline, with aftermaths. I think that Loporrit tribal crafting … Continue reading FFXIV Patch 6.3.: My Impressions
WoW: RIP
Today in the morning I logged into WoW, as FFXIV is under maintenance for patch 6.3. installation. I spent about 3 hours in the game, and it's gonna be a swan song of the game as an entertainment for me. I've said all that had to be said about the current story. It's super boring … Continue reading WoW: RIP
FFXIV: Immediate Trade Leveling Through Leves in Heavensward
I thought that by reaching level 80 on my main's trade jobs and 50-60 on alts I know how things and most effective ways work. I was wrong. Of course, I used leves before - in fact, they firmly replaced any grinds by the time I arrived to ARR trade level cap. Grand Company Leves, … Continue reading FFXIV: Immediate Trade Leveling Through Leves in Heavensward
FFXIV: Trade Jobs Made It Through Shadowbringers & Arrived at Endwalker!
Even by 80, my pioneer toon is still figuring out the best ways to level :) The Shadowbringers leg was both effective and not that effective, but I think I got the idea for most the upcoming alts. Crystarium Deliveries & Scrips Obviously, Crystarium Deliveries were my primary focus. About a whole level per quest, … Continue reading FFXIV: Trade Jobs Made It Through Shadowbringers & Arrived at Endwalker!
FFXIV: The End of the Year Milestones & Plans
The end of the year is nigh, and it marks a year and a half when I started playing FFXIV as my major MMO. For the whole year of 2022 it's been the game for me where I spent most of my time, and it's something where I'm always ready to login and eagerly await … Continue reading FFXIV: The End of the Year Milestones & Plans
My Gaming Year 2022 Recap
Gaming remains to be my major hobby and pastime during out-of-work hours and weekends, and 2022 remained as such. During this year it also served as an important sanity anchor in the turmoil of non-stop madness IRL, and escapism from the news - but well, the games also matter on their own. So, what I … Continue reading My Gaming Year 2022 Recap
FFXIV: Crafting Through Stormblood and The Case of Scrips
I decided I take my main further with trade jobs leveling, and other two toons will follow, so I'm crafting/gathering through Stormblood now. You know what? No wonder, Stormblood is yet again better than previous expansion. My beef with Heavensward was the story questing content. Excellent stories, mind you, so zero grudge for the lore … Continue reading FFXIV: Crafting Through Stormblood and The Case of Scrips
