Ugh! Yea, so it's been awhile since an update hasn't it? Wow! Alright...shoot, let's see, where to start, where to start...I really don't know what I have or haven't talked about and I'm to lazy to look! So let's cover a lot of the bigger things before we get into recent months, shall we? And if I leave anything out that someone thought should've been in here. Well, STFU.
I think one of my bigger accomplishments in previous months, which is sort of old is that I have indeed finally gotten Black Mage to level 75! That makes two now! Yea! I've done a tiny bit of meriting on it. I have +10 MP, +Burst II, +2 Ice\Lightning Potency and +2 Elemental\Enfeebling Magic Skill. The past couple days me and Juxta (RDM) have been going out to Mount Zhayolm and duo'ing Wamoura Princes. It's all good fun and I enjoy the solo\duo part of Black Mage as much as I ever have.
Now, even though I only have a /NIN sub for my BLM, Ringthree and Omoi have had me come to some Versus events as Black Mage -- mainly it's just been Limbus, which isn't too bad. It's basically just a bit of nuking and sleeping when needed. They had me go to an Airship fight for CoP and I really hated playing Black Mage there.
The reason, I think I don't like playing Black Mage in a party-type situation, is I have no control over the hate. As a Thief I have perfect control over it, I KNOW when I will get hate and I KNOW how to get rid of it. I know how to take it, who to give it to. I am in complete control. Even as a Ranger, I can't control it as much as I can on Thief, but I sure as hell know when I'm going to take hate. But Black Mage, I don't know...it's hard to tell and feel like your doing your job at the same time. See, on Ranger I can just ranged attacked and not take hate but still be contributing to the fight. As a Black Mage I'm afraid to nuke because I don't want to take hate. So, as a result I end up standing there until 50% HP or below before I do anything and I feel useless or like I'm not doing something right for most of it.
They're having me come Black Mage to sky on Sunday night though, which means Magic Bursts and Stun Order, so I should have some new revelations on being a Black Mage to share with you at a later time. Onward!
With Black Mage resting at 75, I've picked up my second love a second time. Since Omoi was kind enough to let me borrow her spare E-Bow, I've became a Ranger again. And goddamnit I love this fucking job so fucking much! I sync'd to level 55 and STILL hit a 1,100 Sidewinder! That's so sexy! And do you know why?! Because I don't even have Archery merits! I put all my merits into Marksmanship, imagine when I get to 67 and equip my O-Bow and get all my better gear! /glee! Aah! Things are going to drop so fast and hard.
I'll probably be that thing most of the time! But I'll go down in glory!
Versus has started back up from the Holiday season in full swing, and with them so have I! We started with Sky and I snagged some Wyrmal Hands for my Ranger (Which is currently 64), though I already have Seiryu's Kote so I don't know if I'd actually use them. I almost got Zenith Mittens from Genbu, but he was greedy. We did some Limbus as I mentioned up top a little bit and I managed to grab a supple skin to match my thread for Thief AF+1. I've already got the armlets which I'm pretty happy with. The only other piece I want is the Pants +1 for my TAWS. Even then, I don't really NEED that. So I'm going to wait until I get my Boxer's Mantle before I spend coins on it. If I get the other stuff to make more AF+1 for Thief, I might do it just for the hell of it. We'll see. I kind of want a Loq. Earring too, so I don't know.
On another note! Salvage! Salvage is...a wierd thing for me. I love Salvage, and I make it when I can -- the sad and unfortunate part is that these past few months I've been so in and out that I don't have the attendance to back my priorities (Which Ringthree forgot anyhow =P). However, I have no problem with tagging along to watch other LS Members get thier gear, not to mention, I could very well grab some of my own peices randomly along the way. The part I've been struggling with is that is seems Skadi's Gear has been stratigically placed so if you want Skadi you have to go Skadi...whereas...well! Let's take Quigglypuss as an example. =) He's been in out Shell for a very, very short time and he has even more pieces compelted then Izman I think! Q is one lucky bastard, and I think it's just been because he's been in the right runs at the right times. That's because Ares drops everywhere!
Maybe I should level Dragoon...
Anyhow! Suffice to say, sometimes even when we do a good run but get no drops I tend to get down rather hard because not only am I not getting drops -- but my friends aren't getting drops, which means it'll take longer for me to get drops. One reason for this is that while I'm busy not being around (these past couple months) it only takes a couple weeks for everyone else to do bosses and get all thier 25s. Now, all they need is 35s. So, whenever I look at my drop chart it looks so empty and is just so disheartening.
But no more! We downed that Brain Jacking Fucker in SSR last night and lo' and behold! He dropped Freya's Mask AND Freya's Jerkin! Putting me at 7\15 in one fell swoop! And, keep in mind that 2\15 of the ones I need are 100% drops. I'm missing only one 25 at this point, which is pants. And, of course, all 35s. The feet are going to straight to me provided I'm there, the pants which we've never seen are going to Foxy then Illius, then me hopefully. The Body is going to Foxy, then me I think. The hands to Illius and the mask I don't think anyone needs. The good news is that the Mask\Body drop from the same NM and since it's Bhaflau Rampart farming there's a good chance they can both drop, more then once. And once the March update comes hopefully they drop more often AND of course, SSR should drop more which means Skadi's Gloves for everyone!
Of course, I want the whole Skadi Set. I have my priorities set on Feet > Body. I'm trying to put them in an order that I'll get quicker, rather then what I need most. Body is the best WS body for Thief in the game and pants are the best TP, IMO. They have 1% less haste then Homam, but they have more Acc and they have a chunk of Store TP, so those are for sure on my list of must have for my final Thief setup.
I think all that about wraps it up. I'm going to have a LOT more time this semester\summer, so I hope to be at Salvage a lot more. Get people lots more drops, get me a few too. So! Here's hoping!

A Letter for my Linkshell
"Dearest Versus, Covered in Bees...
Firstly, I'd like to express that I miss you all. Especially, Izman. I've been following the advice of the Village Sage and been diligently studying and trying as hard as I can to change my habits and do well in classes. It's paying off in it's own way.
As you all know, the play I was cast in has reached the end of it's life and I've been auditioning for other shows. Unfortunately, I was not cast in any of them. Fortunately, this should allow for much, much, much more playtime next semester.
I was, however, nominated for an Irene Ryan's award, which means I get to go and participate in my regions ACTF in January. This, along with classes, is my excuse for my prolonged absence after the play ended. Whereas most Irene Ryan nominee's get 5-6 months to prepare, I have one.
I hope this serves as a viable excuse and that one Omoikitte does not amalgamate me with tentacles. (Blast it! According to spell check that IS a word.)
So, as I end this heartfelt little love note I have to say -- I am following everyones progress the best I can through Jess' blog, the website (why hasn't my picture been replaced?) and Ring's blog.
Oh! That brings me to another point of interest, is he still alive? It's been so long I wouldn't think he'd still be walking at this point. I hope so, I even miss him a little. Him and his dated jokes and puns.
Regardless, much love, X's and O's and I'll see you all as soon as I can.
Love,
Kallo!
P.S. There was also some trouble with my credit card, so my account has been suspended as of November 15th. But I'm remedying that soon!"

The Revolution of Company Policies and Practices by Artie Dallas.
Another update on how my progress is fairing in 'The Real Life.'
The biggest time consumer at the moment is listed as the title. The Revolution of Company Policies and Practices by Artie Dallas. I feel it's important to note that Artie Dallas didn't write the play, his name is part of the title. Andrew Lewis wrote the play.
So, opening night is Thursday. Everything's going well -- we haven't started working with ALL props, but tonight should be the night we do. That would normally be scary, but it's not. We got this shit on lock down.
I haven't had a chance to get into Final Fantasy XI at all! Which is unfortunate. I miss everyone. But, if they could come see the play I think they'd all be happy knowing my time has been well spent.
Even that Old Grinch Ringthree. I think he'd especially like this show.
As for school crap -- it's under control for the time being. But, it's very easy for that to go out the window isn't it? I have two papers to write tonight which are both half done, drafts due tomorrow but final drafts not due for awhile. So, I'm not too worried about that. Yet.
I have another Audition today for Dublin Carol which is an Irish play about grave diggers and alcohol. Or so I've heard. It's a 3 person show in TOTS (Theatre on the Side) which a very small, black box theater. I love smaller, intimate shows. I feel like the audience develops a stronger connection with you.
If I don't make that show, a week from today I have Auditions for To Fool The Eye, which is being directed by one of my favorite Instructors who I've yet to work with outside of a classroom situation. Apparently this one is a romantic comedy with heightened language. I have to go read it tomorrow so we'll see how it all turns out.
Let's see what else...
I guess that's it. That's what I've been up to. Oh! I'm hoping to be back in FFXI after Company Policies (For short) is over. If I get cast in the Irish play, I'll be gone in a few weeks again. If I get cast in the romantic comedy I'll be basing my character of Izman and Ring, and I won't be gone frmo FFXI until January!
So cheers to all that!
And Congratulations Ani on his Homam Feet an Jess on his Homam Body.

IMPORTANT!
Firstly, since this has been posted in quick succession of the most recent post -- make sure you read down one as well.
On to the importance. A long-time reader has posted a very dire query. I figured I should address it as soon as possible, and being as it is a question of mass importance it gets it's own post.
The question is presented as thus,

Now when you say old how old is old? Like old as in a old pc or like old as in a middle age man playing a game online old?"
The Answer: 'Old as in middle aged man playing a game online' Old.
My job is done.
Not FFXI. /sad
So...
I haven't been in FFXI much the past week or so. I really thought I was about to make a comeback too -- BLM went from 71-74 in a week. I farmed up over 20,000 Zeni and I am not 2\3 to a Tinnin, 1.5\3 to a Cerb and 1\3 to a Hydra.
And I hate not being there for Salvage.
It's so frustrating sometimes when you look at your schedule and you think, "Wow. I don't have anything to do for a week or two. I'm completely free."
Then somehow, the very next day it's like, "...I have no time and I have so much shit to do."
So, for the sake of it let's make a check list!
English Paper One, Un-check. Due last Wednesday.
English Paper Two, Half-Check. Due next Wednesday.
Get Off Book for my Play Next Week, Half-Check. Due last Sunday.
Memorize Monologue #3 for performance. Un-Check. Due tomorrow.
Write paper for Monologue #3. Un-Check. Due tommorrow.
Seriously, all of these could be done in one night each. Had I done them two weeks ago prior to you know, tonight. I'd be sitting golden.
I just know I'm going to get lectured by some Old Dude. Allow me to stress OLD. So, to him, yes, I know. You're right, you're usually right. Hush.
Now...this was actually a break from memorizing my monologue from Ceaser. Sorry there wasn't much FFXI in this post. I'll try to remedy that soon.
Especially considering I'm getting my new PC in a week or two. /glee.

Enkidu and Skadi
So! Quite a bit has actually been going down in the last few weeks! I feel like I have a few things to report on for once. So, let's take 'em one at a time right?
Kind of what Ring tells himself every morning, "One day at a time." Before hopping on vent with me and Iz.
So! Black Mage ~ I'm currently 3k until 72. I haven't been leveling at a very quick rate. Usually Zero (Neras for those of you in-game) and I will head out to Mount Zhayolm once or twice a week and grind out 10-15k Exp. We need to get Sayl into those with us, make it go a lot faster! Thanks to Eslyn for the Weskit she's letting me borrow as well as the White Ugly Shirt-Dress thing with +5hMP. That's about it for BLM.
Zeni NMs! So, yea! These things just got a LOT easier. What I mean by that is I think the hardest thing about these was the Zeni farming. Not that it was a difficult task, but when ZNMs came out it was so very daunting to run out and take pictures and run all the way back to find out the target monster has changed! /sulk! Now, since things have calmed down Sanraku will have the same target for almost an entire IRL day. So, Izman and I have been farming like mad. In the past WEEK I've done...Cheese Hoarder Gigiroon T1, Iriz Ima T2, Vulpangue T1, Ob T1, Gotoh Zha the Redolent (haven't used this one yet) and Lil' Apkallu (haven't popped yet either). The only thing that's stopped me right now is I'm out of Jettons so I'm using Savage Prime (my Poke'mon) to battle and get some more! Even though I didn't pop my Gotoh we did fight him today and Mr. Foxy got his Enkidu Mittens, congrats! That makes me (technically) 1\1 on Boots, Subligar and Mittens! I better get mine on my Pop next week or I'll be sad. ; ; I like flawless THKs.
Next thing on my list of important to semi-important things to talk about is Salvages!
Currently this is what it all breaks down into...
Ares, 15Head, 15\25Legs, 15Feet
Usuaken, 15Head, 15Hands, 15Legs
Marduk, 15Head, 15Feet
Morrigans, 15Head, 15\25Legs, 15Feet
I would have the 25Head too but Qtipus lotted it and I passed wanting to be nice. He thought it was for Mardul...d'oh!
As for Skadi's....
We got 6 Peryton on Bhaflau 4th floor Rampart...and one Freya's Jerkin (thats the 35)! It went to Blaize, a kickass Thief to a sister-shell of our Salvage Static. That makes him 15\15 on all Skadi Gear. So Congrats to him! On the same run, I got my 25 Feet! Which makes my current count...
Skadi, 15\25Hands, 15Legs, 15\25Feet.
So! That's all going pretty good.
Oh! And to close things out...
FUCK YOU DYNAMIS XARCABARD! We got FOUR Warrior Bodies and FOUR Monk Crowns...and some other stuff ~ NONE of which were Thief or Black Mage. The ones where we could have actually used 4+.
Stupid Dynamis. Stupid Izman.
Old Ringthree.
/goes to brood.
Also! Jess is dumb! /broods more.

For a Lack of Posts
Clicky, I'll probably make a better one later. I didn't have many screenshots to work with.

WARNING: No Pictures.
Mainly because I'm lazy. Otherly because I'm bored that's why I'm posting, so I had no pictures planned. Lawlz.
So, just a bit of an update today.
Let's see...first! Some excellent news! We did Zhayolm Remnants last night! FINALLY got Hiryo his 25 Usukane Mask =D Congrats!!! He's been getting screwed out of that thanks to double Skadi Hands or Ares Legs drops for so~ long! Glad we finally got him that! ^.^
Not that it matters, but the bitch frog with my pants didn't drop them again!
I didn't mind though because I pulled the zone nearly fucking flawlessly! 2nd floor in particular we had NO links. I think Hiryo or something accidently aggro'd a Wyvern, but we were about to zone up regardless. So, yea, made up for how much I sucked on Friday in Silver Sea when I wiped us at Powderkeg's room.
Otherwise, I've just been farming for...well, nothing inparticular. I just like to have a coushion of gil. I'm sitting on 600k right now. If I get to 1 Mil I'm locking that on my Windy Mule and then saving up for gear to actually buy. Like more AGI for my TA Boost Setup, maybe some more Evasion gear? I don't know. We'll see!
That's all. Oh! And I guess Izman is super sick? So get well, buddy! It's not cool when I kill you in IRL. There's no buffer for that. <3

Salvaging the Ruins!
So, since my last post about me being 'back', I actually haven't been 'back' much. Rofl. Main reason being class work kind of spurred up on me. However, today I did manage to make Versus Events. We did some Sea and got Ix'Drk\Drg, so that was all good.
Headed over to Einherjar after that and got Bats\Diremites and Leeches. Was nothing, we owned 'em up pretty hard. But, the boss whose was a Golem (and seperates) needed to be given the old Romeo and Juliet treatment and we fell short on that one. So, 1,440 Ichor, but other then that nothing.
The big news! Salvage! We did an awesome run, we took down a bunch of NMs and got to the boss with PLENTY of time left. Unfortunately, we wiped at 1%...it was just, Iunno, something wasn't righ with us.
But, that was nothing compared to the fact we got both of these!
The mask went to my man BLEEP making him 3\3 on his Ares Mask -- he just needs 1.9M now. And the body went to Old Man Ringthree who only needs the 15 piece now. I almos feel sorry for Ring...he has 3\3 Usukane Head and needs to buy the O Ingots, he has 3\3 Usukane Body and needs all the Ingots for that and now he's one100% drop away from Ares Body...the guy needs a good 30 Mil? Rofl.
So! Congrats to probably the coolest couple in FFXI on the Odin Server. =) Grats guys.

Foiled! ...an explanation.
Well. It's certainly been some time since I've updated this space. So, first, an explanation!
I believe it happens to all of us...some more frequently then others. No, Izman, I'm not talking about your ...disfunct--you know, what. Not addressing that here! Congrats on Ares Body, btw. No, I'm talking about the reason I've been away from the game for so long. Sometimes, I just get sick of the game, bored? I look at all my goals and think "What's it all for?" I don't know, it looks like a grind to me more then anything else.
But! Then, something happens...and it has nothing to do with me getting stuff. I read things like Ring's Blog or Izman's...or Ring's Blog and see everyone getting all thier stuff and being all happy. And realize it's not because of anything I've done. So, I'm reminded that I'm not just playing this game for myself. I'm playing it to help my friends.
And...as a great DRK just recently put it...no not Aniero. I said great, not Emo.
"You give out +1, you get back +2."
My first night back, I was fortunate enough to land a pair of Homam Gambieras. Even though when I first logged on and said hello, I got messages like this from my Linkshell...
Member A >> Oh, God...
Member B >> GTFO
Member C >> -.- He's back...
MemberIzmanisadouche >> HAVE MY BABIES!
MemberIzmanisadouche >> ...I mean...I too...don't like you...question mark?
I know they really care =) Because the Gambieras are a way of saying, "We missed you Kallo."
So, everyone at Versus -- I'm sorry I've been gone so long and I'll try to make it up over the next couple weeks!
As for why I was FOILED! I've been planning a massive attack on the Versus Queen Bee Omoi! I had an ENTIRE library of pictures I was going to use to slander her good Dragoon image...but alas...all the Teabagging pics were lost when my computer...suddenly, randomly...without warning...died on me.
...just you wait Omoi! Vengence shall be mine! Along with the last laugh!
Mwahaha!
I believe it happens to all of us...some more frequently then others. No, Izman, I'm not talking about your ...disfunct--you know, what. Not addressing that here! Congrats on Ares Body, btw.
