Final Fantasy XIV

 

 

M'kolon progress:

M'kolon reached patch 7.4 MSQ progress, only two more patches to go.
She had to reach this stage of the MSQ to unlock the newest Custom Delivery content.
So far only OCE Jaffa Cake has finsihed the current MSQ, but M'kolon is well on her way to catch up. 
On retainer news, M'kolon got a very nice iLvl 750 WHM staff, making the WHM job the highest weapon equipped job she has.
The house is coming along great. I finally found out what i wanted to put in the upper floor promenade.   I  knew i wanted something there, but, as with many things before the increase of item slot numbers, it couldn't be realized. Now that i can do so, this is what i came up with, a little study area away from the busy library down below.

 

JP FC:

We lost yet another housing lottery bid, but i'm sure we'll get a win eventually. Our Submersibles are 
doing just great. The first one is close to reaching 75. Once it's at 85 is when we can upgrade the
individual components to a better quality, Modified-XXX is what they will be called after that upgrade.
We finished the basement Tea Party floor, and now we are starting work on the main floor. Since we
still only have a small house, we only have two floors.
We added the wall scroll and the two shelves along with the plant on the floor. Then we chose a color
for the new floor, since it was too dark, and we chose a light, white/grey pattern floor. Then we chose to
dye a bunch of the furnishings to match the different shades of grey in the floor, without dyeing them
all the same color. That was an advantage of choosing a floor with different shades of a color.
Then we put carpets down in a T shape, kind of guiding the visitor to the areas that lead to different parts
of the house, namely the doors to the Workshop and the lower floor:

Here is a picture of the first updated corner
next to the door into the Workshop and private rooms:


On the other wall, next to the main entrance door, we added one double shelf, the plant on the floor
and the picture of the Admiral of Limsa Lominsa. On the shelf we placed a few job stones.

Good day Ctrl Alt Multiple Games Crew.. 

Diablo, Diablo, Diablo! I am completely hooked and enjoying it very much. I was a bit surprised to learn Season 13 was coming to an end at the end of June.. I am not sure yet when Season 14  starts, but I assume very shortly after? 

I feel like I have only scratched the surface and still have a lot to learn about the various mechanics of the game. With this in mind, I have decided to treat S13 as an experimental season, level characters to see which classes I prefer, trying/adapting different levelling builds that suit my play style, side quests, crafting and generally figuring things out.. 

So far I have max level Barbarian, Rogue, Necromancer and Paladin (Paragon 61). I am also working on my Druid and Spiritborn. I still might try levelling a Sorcerer and/or Warlock before the end of the season? 

Take care and all the best, 

Kep

Greetings AprilPVD, Grand Nagus and Big G!

Attached is my quick audio for this episode. I have been progressing through the FFXIV story MSQs and even a little bit of a dabble back in to GW2 following the announcement of the Guild Wars 3 due to hit beta in the autumn next year. 

I did take a few screenshots but they've disappeared but below is an odd gear set I was wearing for a bit and an recent photo of my GW2 main, a Asuran Holosmith Engineer :D
