Waders obtained!

Got my fishing Waders last night!
Synthed my own signed fishing gear!
Synthed my own signed chocobo gear too!
Xylos brand outdoors gear is a step above your grandpas WalMart gear.

Kinda funny, until I put on the choco gear it never dawned on me that I had yet to see anyone wear this stuff... hopefully the +15 ride time works on personal choco's.

Made a quick round trip on the ferry and turned in a few more Marlins, nothing exciting.

No exp on bst, ran out of time since I logged on rather late.

Last GP fishing run for me.

Tonight I will obtain my waders! Fashion shot in the works ...


Did my gp fish last night, afterwards hit 24 on bst. When I was 6 exp into 24 I got a bit cocky and hit up the wrong mob, it was a high T and started to chew through the DC-EM at an alarming rate and a second farmer showed up to my spot and killed off the pets so I threw a EP at it and ran like hell. I made it to the zone and decided to call my choco and hit jeuno, I wanted to see if I could pull off a few worms at 24. The worms in quifm made for some tasty exp but I was still a bit low to charm the local crabs they all showed as mid-high T and seemed to lose charm quicker than I liked. I ended up 2hr'n a high T crab and reigned terror upon the lake worms for 25 minutes. When the 2hr'd crab finaly died after I failed to let reward cool down enough I tossed out a jug crab finished the worn I was on and was going to call it a night but I got cocky again and decided to make one more run around the lake. By now the RMT pt had killed all the worms and I was concerned about my pet so I threw him at a low T hoping to finish it meleeing. Bad idea I guess... as soon as I hit the mob my pet came uncharmed and one mischarm later I ate dirt. I RR'd up and ran towards jeuno, noticed obody at tunnel camp so I started killing worms there till I dc'd. When I logged back I must have ran to far out before dc and caught instant wight aggro for Death #2.

Gave up on bst for the night and grabbed rdm clothes and sword and went out /thf to see if I could farm a little silk outsie of windy. Drops rates sucked, after an hour I had landed 4 spools of silk and made one cloth >< on my last run I found Tom Tit Tat up and took out my anger on him, seeing him made me decide to try one last loop and I caught the Pilgram's Wand NM up and got him too.

So the nights summary is 68863 or so Fishing GP, I'm 500 into 24 BST, farmed up a single silk cloth, killed two low level NM's and got my Pilgrams Wand.

Oh so beastly.

Knocked out my GP fish now at 62K and change.

Hit jeuno and geared up bst o.O.
Not as expensive as I had thought, not as cheap as I wanted. After minimal research I decided to just hit Jugnar and target shrooms. Ended up burning off my ring in a little over an hour and a half and called it a night about 3100/5000 with no deaths.
The no death thing suprised me a bit, I guess bst is like riding a bike or maybe a tricycle, I wont say it went smooth but it could have been worse.
The only real problem was that the shrooms had a habit of respawning as T making pet pulling tricky at times, the DC-EM's seemed to like to spawn dead center in the area making me pull the fight far out and run back in to avoid links.
I tried the ghetto release trick a few times until a T @ 1% almost killed me. Tried various jugs and pet foods for giggles but stuck to the locals 95% of the time, the shrooms seemed to eat my jugs for lunch.
Going to complile usefull BST info and post it over in the links area soon.
All in all the trial run as a bst was great, cant wait to get out there everyday and burn my empress charges.

Back to fishing.. The contest will be reseting soon I hope its something in my range. My waders will be obtained within the next few days so I can start on my bone specs.

Craft-O-Ramma is over!

And I'm not even broke o.O.

Everything outside of gold and smithing is at a sufficient level to piddle around and cap out as I see fit. It was a wild and crazy week, tons of crap to sell off too^^.

Now that I got that out of my system it's time to pick up a job and just fish and GP on various crafts (bone spec's here I come).

I think I will take up BST again. My LS is packed full of BST to pester for advice so I hope it makes the job go a bit smoother.

I have enough gil left to gear up fairly well for now, my food/med mule should also be able to hold me over for a long time, hell with my new set of craft skills I can make a chunk of my own gear/food/meds.

My bst is 23 right now the last time I took it out was to try jug pets^^. It seems like the perfect job for now. I can exp on my own time, maybe just burn my ring everyday, who knows.

Update ...
