Right right, I will be streaming later this evening! Will be doing my beast dailies and then a few hard dungeons, I'll also see about either Urth's Fount or the CoB. Those latter two I'll probably have to do party finder for but....that's fine.
Tune in at 7PM CST!

Technically it's Tuesday, spiritually for me it's Friday. Financially this week is bad because I'm hardly getting any hours at work but free time to pursue my passions I feel is worth it... plus I can stream if I want to...not sure what I'd stream though.

Whelp just went through Halatali Hard synced with only two DPS and a Healer after a DC took out the tank and somehow we won.
To the two I partied with, it was a pleasure. To the tank who couldn't make it back, I hope you're alright out there and don't let the DC get you down.

Finally Friday! I'll get my dailies done after work and tonight I'll either get slamming through hard dungeons and trials or poke around FFXIV Elvin lore. Had a killer line about 'honey tinged phantom of dark horrors'.

Sorry, never got around to streaming this evening. Got totally distracted with plans for another FFXIV alt I made. Look at him, he baby bun tank. Did at least get my dailies out of the way but yea, was getting this guy situated. Especially the cross hotbars. Now letting him rest for the exp boost.

Fuck it, I'll remake Elvin Williams in FFXIV after work.
Shadow: *Whoops in background.* Wait shit, this means the backstory is getting reworked.
Me: *Holds plot fixing hammer.* Oh, how do you figure?
Elvin: Can I keep my Ala Mhigan origin?
Me: Sure! *Bonks shadow into a shape to fit FFXIV.*

Elvin: Honestly I like the quiet.

What I'm getting from this is that I have a tendency to vanish for a long period of time. Clearly the answer to this is by posting more nonsense more often! www.madebyolof.com/bluesky-wrap...

Was flying through North Shroud and took this pic, the fog gives the landscape a sense of desolation. As if there's nothing there even though I know for a fact that is not true.

Two more days with the Ixal and then I can move on to the other beast tribe dailies! I'll log on later to work on post ARR dungeons and trials!
I'm getting closer and closer to completing the requirements for the Expansion Lock and moving on towards Heavensward!

So last night me forgot that I had other plans for today so no stream sorry for the lie. I'll make it up tomorrow hopefully. Still will be logging on FFXIV to continue grinding at the Expansion Lock. If you're on Maduin and see an Ether Blackstone Flying overhead, send a wave!

Good evening! We'll be heading back to Eorzea to work! Got Ixal Dailies and then I'll get back to ARR dungeons so that way I can EVENTUALLY get back to the main plot....eventually.
Also need to do the Bahamut stuff at some point.
Still not sure if I even want to try at Blue Mage.

I shouldn't fucking have to say this but don't go to a fucking restaurant restroom and post stickers or ads without permission. Regardless of political stance, that's vandalism and having to spend 10 minutes peeling off each one is a fucking hassle I don't want to fucking deal with.
