I Have The Power!!

;) God Bless He-Man for that one!

On Sunday, I recieved Justice Sword. And now I am rocking the Justice Sword/Joyeuse combination when I find myself trying to exp.

For those that dont know, believe it or not a TON of people dont know Justice Sword even exists, the Stats for Justice Sword are as follows:

Justice Sword (Rare/Exe)
Level: 73 Damage: 34 Delay: 236
STR +7
Virtue Stone Equiped: Occasionaly Attacks Twice

If you PLD's out there get this sword, and feal a wierd tingle screaming up your spine when you first equip it, dont panic! It's perfectly natural, thats what it feals like to have your DoT go through the roof! Realy, this sword is just that hot.

Fights that took me about 3 minutes with my trusty Company Sword/Joyuese only take me 1 minute 30 seconds-2 minutes with Justice/Joyeuse. Yeah, im seeing about a 30-40% increase in output XD.

Hell, i got so ballzy i even took out an EP Fomor Beastmaster, and his pet at the same time! I used to avoid this duo with my old swords. Its very very impressive.

Dont get me wrong, im not going to give up my Company Sword just yet. I am going to see how it goes with the Virtue Stones first. But, so far im completely satisfied. In one stack of virtue stones, i can farm up 2 more organs. And get exp while im at it! Very cool!

Yesterday i soloed/duoed 10k exp XD A whole merit! Well, it was actualy more than 10k exp Due to an R1 i had to take earlier that day. The exp wasnt all that great per hour, but it was definately a noticable improvement.

I am just glad that people need items from sea, namely organs for obi's and gorgets. I always like helping out in sea, mainly because i get exp there while farming for other people.

Ooops, i went on a tangent of sorts! Its time to get back to my plans for my new sword combination.

Before i go to an exp, I want more +accuracy items. Namely, Snipers X2, and an Assault Earring. That will put me up at about +48 to +49 ish Accuracy from gear, with some +STR and or +Attack items to plug in when I simply don't need that much Acc. I am hoping that that much Acc will allow me to eat meat food.

Damn, XD. With any luck ill be able to grab a Fortified Torque sooner than later. Assuming one Skill level = .9 Accuracy... Someone told me that. Then i should be able to swap out the O-Hat for a Turban (5% Haste) for even more DoT mayhem.

I am so happy lol, my setup is near what i have always wanted it to be in DD terms.

If my stuff on AH sells, I should be very close to all three items (Snipers X2 and an Assault) if i buy a Gill packed from the BBQ coffers.

Its too bad that due to inflation, they had to up the point cost of 1 mill to 30 points. It used to be something like 20 points. Never the less, It will be worth the points to be able to exp again AND feal proud of my performance while doing so.

You would be suprised at how many tells i get about having both swords equiped. Some even insist on coming out to see the combination in action. Johndoe was the first though lol. Hell even the "Good" DD jobs aprove, although they tend to just /examine /yes me.

As for the merit point i got, guess where it went XD. Take a second, another, yeah i sunk it into sword lol!

To swerve off topic as drasticaly as possible, my Chocobos Discernment went up yet another tick this weekend. He is now rated at "Average"!!!! XD That put me in a realy realy good mood lol.

As for his performance in the chocobo digging scene... It has been quite lax. Well ill rephrase. It started off awesome! I had 3 days in a row where i would dig up record amounts of Darksteel Ores. Im talking about 6-7 ores (Three Days in a Row) where my previous record was 5 (In a Blue Moon). Now i am lucky to get 2-3 ores a trip.

This decrease in Ore output has been puzzling me. The zone is definately not dug out. And its been the same zone that i have been digging in. I kept the zone the same to gage how much of an impact there is to actualy digging up items with a chocobo focused on Discernment.

For a while now, the amount of Darksteel i have dug up, has been increasing as my Discernment has been increasing.

But i can only wonder on why i am experiencing a sudden drop in ore output. One thing i have noticed is that my chocobo (which i have kept on Digging for Treasure) has not turned up any items once his afection towards me has dropped below a certain point.

Perhaps this has an impact on digging out in the field as well. I have takin my chocobo off of its regimine of digging for treasure. I have him doing much less stressful activities that improve mental stats.

I am trying to get his affection towards me back up to somewhere close to parent status. Maybey, this will help both the careplan and my results in the feild.

I have also been trying to get him to learn an ability. But haven't suceded so far. The chocoboy tells me that Discernment is absolutely necisary to learn an ability. So im lucky in that Discernment is also the stat i am focusing on for digging.

But i havent recieved the "Your chocobo should be responcive to anything you give it" animation for sometime now. Perhaps that is also affected be your chocobos affection to you as well.

At anyrate, these questions will be answered as I increase my chocobo's affection towards me again.

Oh! and Rayven XD thankyou for the offer, what day is good for you to go out for the savage blade quest, its starting to become almost too funny that i have all this pimp stuff but dont have savage blade yet lol.
