Island sanctuary fun times

So I finally completed one of my goals, which was to gather everything I can until I have 999 of them.

It took way too long to do it tbh because it was tiring, and I lost some motivation at one point aswell ^^; But now got motivated to do it before Patch 6.5! ...Just to gather new stuff to 999 in like 2 days...

But I think it will be fine, because I will only need to focus on new stuff. :3 And then I will be able to just chill and focus on setting workshops until all mats are gone

Dream house Achieved

My new home, this time it's my dream house. I won in a house lottery.

I have played this game since early access of ARR (08/24/2013), and when housing was first released(12/14/2013 patch 2.1), I always wanted to have a large house but I couldn't even afford a small house at start.. Then I started to craft, earn money, finally I had enough to buy a small plot for my FC to give home to not only myself, but my friends too. (I was leading FC at that time) Our first house was in Lavender beds. I worked hard and some time later I upgraded our home into medium in The Goblet. That was the times when selling house plots for gil to other players weren't a thing yet, so the only issue was getting enough gil to afford one. Then my FC was getting kinda inactive and some drama in the FC happened that made some people quit, so I was also kinda left alone. The new expansion was coming, and with it there was new servers being added, I have made my decision to server swap. I swapped servers and found myself a Medium house in Lavender beds, for personal use this time. This time around selling plot for gil was popular and players were asking you to pay 100% of the plot (or more) to the player just to free the plot, and you had to pay the plot itself after that as well. Though there wasn't much competition for houses yet on the new server I moved in. I also finally had enough money to afford a large house, but I didn't want to pay double the price for it, due to players asking you 100mil to just free the plot and then you would have to pay another 50mil for the plot itself. Then SE added a thing to prevent players from directly selling the plots to other players, a hidden timer to the placards, that was a random timer until plot becomes available. So players began to camp at the placards of empty plots to click on the "buy this plot" for like 24/7 in hopes they were the first ones to click "buy" button once the random cooldown timer ended. Obviously I didn't want to participate in this camping thing. So I sighted and gave up on a dream. Later, we got new wards added up. This time I almost got a large house, but still didn't.. I was first at the plot, nobody in sight but because my storage capacity was over the relocation limit and I didn't remember it was a thing, I missed my chance in getting a large. By the time I fixed my storage, someone already got the plot and rest of the large plots were also sold out, unfortunately. Then some long time later after that SE added a housing lottery. Which made my hopes go up again. Well in the lottery, I lost probably 6 large houses until now finally, I won a large plot! With number 70! It literally took me almost 10years to get a large. The first housing was released on 12/14/2013. I achieved my dream on getting a large on 08/06/2023. I'm so happy! In the screenshot you can see me and 3 of my friends chilling at my new home. :3 (It's their's too because I shared it with them)

10K Fates Done

Wanted to post my most recent big achievement in FFXIV!

yep, 10,000 fates ! 

Achievement doesnt count in eureka or bozja fates so I’m kinda proud, since this achievement took me some time and a lot of farm to achieve. :sweating:

Achievements

Today, 21/01/2021  I actually got this achievement finally!

I have always wanted this title, but been too lazy to touch levequests. Until just recently I started to do them actively. (I started in december).

I’m happy about this achievement~ 

Now to grind my way slowly to the 20,000,000 gil achievement, haha. Though it doesn’t really give anything interesting, only achievement points. ^^;

Eden’s Verse (Savage) Completed

Just wanted to post it here, that our static managed to kill it 8 times already and everyone got their mounts. Now kinda feels empty to not prog shiva anymore idk XD feels so weird after months and weeks of prog to finally be done with it. but im extremely proud of our static ! :3 

So far most enjoyable static i have ever been a part of~

[elforeffxiv]

Here’s the pic for when we first time entered e8s! Oh boy that was a long fight.

We also had to take a bit of break from raiding for a moment because people started to feel a little unmotivated and we were forever stuck on Light Rampant.

Then when the 5.3 patch came, we started to raid a little bit more again, few people changed their jobs aswell so had to get them their BiS gear. :3

And then weekly restrictions were removed from savages, thats  when our full focus went.. full on shiva ! We managed suprisingly fast to do LR, and worked hard to learn the fight. :3 still making mistakes but here’s our group pic of the kill:

Finally cleared it while it’s still on content, and its probably hardest fight i ever did so far. (Mainly because it’s a long fight, and also unforgiving, if one person makes a mistake it can result in a wipe real quick.. ).

We still need to kill it about 6-7 times though. :3 so i hope we will get it done soon and can do something else until next content!

[elforeffxiv]

Oh, I also crafted myself house skin ! I think it looks great :3 I really like the style of it.

[elforeffxiv]

Took few screens of my own character aswell while i was secretly taking pics of Kairos crafting.

[elforeffxiv]

Kairos working his ass off  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) (for the skysteel tools)

[elforeffxiv]

For the fun, me and 3 of my static did Shinryu Extreme 4man and we killed it ! Full paladin party btw. 

Took few wipes, and one fight was a bit less than 5min long.  We killed it 2 times :3 Sadly no doggo dropped (one of us needs a doggo and we wanted to help with some extra challenge XD)

[elforeffxiv]

Just completed all DoH/DoL Skysteel tools! Went pretty fast in my opinion and it’s very easy, was expecting more grind and work. Though in the end they are not “really” better than my melded facet tools due to lack of CP in the tools ^^’ but oh well, maybe next upgrade will be more worth it!

[elforeffxiv]

Just wanted to post about this achievement I just earned ! Because I have been wanting to get this title for a long time, but never actually was bothered to fish big fishes due to RNG and time/weather restrictions, and back in Realm reborn we didn’t have any of these fancy sites like Teamcraft where you could set an alarm to tell you that soon is the right time to catch the fish.

+ I managed to complete Feast of Famine quest too, it’s been sitting in my Quest journal for like 5years (yep, since ARR times).. So hurray it’s done \o/ 

Anyways, this will not stop here, as my goal is to eventually catch every fish in the game~ RNG don’t be too harsh with me please

[elforeffxiv]

Farmed up all the doggos now, now focusing on dragons :3 

These doggos are so beautiful, my favorite is Tsukuyomi one, because it have purple, black, white and gold colors in it (and blue eyes).

Finally, got all the dog mounts
