I swear, sometimes things aren't going anywhere without a lot of pain involved. Such was our last session of Nyzul Isle investigations. We were unfortunate as we lost contact with Bucer that evening, and we had to rummage through those accursed floors without our usual tank and puller. Moreover, Waddles (a.k.a. Xynin, a.k.a. The Professor) also disappeared on us for the last few runs. Figures we ran smack into a floor with five Ebony Puddings on our last run. Oh, we got through those alright, but not without losing precious time. And since Bucer was still AWOL, we couldn't pursue our emptiness investigation.
However, in stern contrast, we were pushed to our awesomeness as we undertook some missions under the moniker of Salaheem's Sentinels. As Meilin coached us through those, we completed each assigned task with relative ease. Bucer made another display of strength and valor as he sacrificed himself so we could feed the imperial soldiers in Lebros Caverns. Our next two missions were achieved without Bucer's help, but nonetheless we managed to pull them both off. At this pace, it won't be long before I get promoted out of Corporal and into Sergeant grade.
Outside of my current stride of missions, I started undertaking some of the new Fields of Valor training regimens as a Beastmaster. It is wonderful! I made it to Beastmaster lv50 rather quickly all things considered. However, as I knew I'd be waiting on help to get some of my artifacts, I decided another career could benefit from this latest addition. So I finally picked Blue Mage...
...oh, my, dawg... I'm never looking back.
It took me a mere few Vana'diel weeks to get from lv40 to lv49. I'm still working on lv50 as I'm waiting for the next day to roll in. According to "Earth Time", this took 3 strong "Earth Days" to get this far. That is simply amazing. And since I'm taking the easiest FoV training regimens, I have some free time between two regimens to do lots of stuff, like read a book, play some games, or, yeah, update my blog.
So will I forego my Monk career in favor of fueling the beast within me? Well... Nah, I still have much heart for smashing my targets to bits, but being able to manipulate the abilities of fell beasts can certainly come in handy at times. Thus I think I will take this all the way.
...but first, I got my Blue Mage classic armor to earn through blood and imperial coin soon. ...Maybe I'll give back my Dark Knight another spin while I wait for my uniform to be crafted.
