What we do..

I've been thinking about what we enjoy about this game. It seems that there are loads of different ways to enjoy playing FFXI. Some people love camping HNM's. Some love crafting. Some love doing quests. I personally don't like any of the aforementioned three. I've been rank 8 Bastok for nearly 4 years and have no great urgency to move onwards from there. I've been stuck on the same TOA Mission for ages and have no impulse to get that moving either.

I enjoy taking a job and making it as good as possible within the confines that I play the game. I like to take a job, bring it to 75 then merit it till it is capped in all areas. I like to build up my skill, equipment and management of every job I play. I like exp....

BLM - My first Job - Full merit and often consider it as my main as i have some excellent gear on it. I feel very comfortable in playing BLM at any endgame event.

RDM - My second job to 75 - Full merit and pretty much retired. Full merit and decent gear, but very rarely play it. You never know, I may take it out again.

WAR - This is the job that I enjoy most and play most. It is a versatile damage dealer. I have this at full merit and have some excellent gear on it. The only things I could add to it are some endgame rare ex or something mega expensive like Speed belt.. This is the job I merit with and very rarely get out parsed on it. Trying for Askar body and head are my endgame goals right now. I'm patient though.

NIN - Full merit. Probably the job I take to LS events most. I really enjoy NIN and like the way they do a lot of damage but can survive for a long time.

SAM - My most recent job to 75 - Working on merits and have got a lot already. Once I'm happy with my SAM I may take it to events or merit.

Campaign is another thing which I enjoy doing. I just managed to get top rank on this today and spent some points on WS shoes for my NIN with str +3. Saves me buying Marine boots.

I enjoy seeing friends and LS members doing well and enjoy helping on any related LS activity. I'm very glad to see some old friends restart the game again. Aethyr, Sekehemet and Imbris have all started up again and have all joined the social LS I belong to. I really hope they stick with it. I'm sad to see my old friend favre leave the game and wish him all the best in his RL endeavours.
