Level Sync

Well, I got Puppetmaster to 56 few days ago. Most of it, in fact all the parties have been level sync'd ones. My only complaint is that I cannot cap my skills when I level in a party sync'd way below my current level.

First level sync party in Qufim.
Levelled Warrior a bit as well for my sub job.
A 5 Puppetmasters and 1 Ninja party in the dunes.
And apart from levelling, I did some Nyzul Isle assaults, ZNM fights and lots of farming.
I recently got my hands on Poulenc's Nocturnes, and have been practising Nocturne No.1 in C major like crazy. I'd been looking for this one for a while now.
Speaking of piano, next year's diploma exam syllabus is going to have some changes. If the Britten piece I'm playing doesn't get through I might want to try some of those Poulenc pieces listed, I don't know.
And just to be a little pessimistic here, less than one month of break left.

Irresponsible Adventurer

Update's going on right about now, then we get level sync after.

Xeo's been leveling Summoner on Quay. So we got him his Carby mitts the other day.
He's finally reached my Puppetmaster's level range and we partied with some other members of Deosil just two days ago.
I've been looking at the latest attachments, namely Coiler and Steam Jacket, which were added in June or something. So much gear and stuff to get, so much more farming I need to do. And my Warrior is only 26, so I need to level that sometime as well.
Also, I was PLing Xeo and Wak last week and he lent me some stuff to use. Among them was the pricey Vermillion's Cloak, with Wak's signature on it. It was probably the first and last time I'd ever wear one.

September Update

And so this semester's exams are over. It's already been a week so I'm probably not going to talk about it.

I finally got a new desktop PC after 6 years. I stayed up till morning just waiting for the FFXI updates again; was kind of eager to try it out on widescreen.

I think FFXI is finally giving a worthy update after so long. Level sync, as they call it, which allows you to level down(not delevel) to a lower level player's level temporarily and be able to fight and gain experience normally. Probably one of the nice additions with accordance to the new level sync system is the way they're going to scale down the current gear you have equipped when you level down so there's the option to not switch gear and of course, all the space we can free up by selling our low level gear.

Another thing I like is the option to keep beastmen seals with an NPC. That's really going to be a lot more free slots.

And uh, when Xeo and Wak get to 49 I'm gonna static with them on puppetmaster, I think.
