As long as I have internet to watch videos/play games I'm pretty content myself.

I really wish content providers would embrace the fact that the traditional television model is dying. Keep giving the twits what they want (vapid sitcoms, reality shows, etc.), but find a way to provide better content via streaming and on-demand viewing.

It really sucks that great shows have to fight so hard because the target audiences just don't have the time or inclination to 1) pay through the *** for so much crap they don't need or 2) don't have the time to stop their lives and watch on the network's schedule.

See, that's my problem, and despite what I just said to Misa, I'm just as bad because I'm terrible at watching things on a Network's schedule.
I just record everything I want to watch but cannot due to time issues. Most channels here even allow skipping advertisments on records^^

Pretty much everything is available streaming the day after. Most of it is all on the networks own websites with ads and then you have stuff like Hulu.

The stuff that isn't available on Hulu I just go bring up the web page for the network and watch it there. Ads are longer but meh, never actually have to turn on my tv.

I guess the one downside to all that is they are only available to watch for the next 2-5 weeks usually. There are certain shows I just wait until the come out of netflix or AmPrime or whatever.

Also, DVR.

oh I didnt mean as in you cant watch fox on airstream (or whatever the *** it is called)

but rather, as a shitty Fox business model.
it has a habit to terminate shows prematurely, to make way for new shows. usually Scifi shows tend to get canned earlier than others.
dunno why.


"oh I guess your show is successful. Congratulations. before you ask for more money, here, lemme cancel your show. bye"
A lot of that stuff got cancelled because there wasn't a huge crowd for it at the time. firefly just had a small but passionate fan base that kept the love for the show live but didn't keep the lights on at the studio.

Had shows like those come on nowadays they'd probably have a much better chance of succeeding as the market is a lot different. Networks didn't keep producing stuff that had low numbers though.

The battle music never dies, sir.

The fight continues until there's no man left standing... Mostly because Kintoki decided to go attack something without telling me and now I can't figure out where the little bugger ran off to!

Welcome back been gone too longers!
First, get you some trust npcs, they are awesome.sign up for sparks and unity.
Second, In your quest log you will find "Record of Eminence"
half of which you have probably already done.. so get on a job you need exp on and turn on some quests, if you already did them they give you exp and stuff and then disappear, if not well... onto 3

Third have as many active quests on as possible as you and your trust npcs kick the living ***out of lair reives in ciezak until you have a full set of bayld gear.

the trick is to complete as many RoE pages at the same time as possible. Have the zone you are in on, spoils active for whatever crystals drop, multiple enemy ones on etc.

poor? Do voidwatch for high dollar drops of reforged relic gear items that go for a million or so

need more money? grind dyna for coins or salvage for alex...or both

Screw Bayld armor, may as well go for Spark armor until you can either Reforge Relic/AF, Get Skirmish Gear, or get Delve gear!

OK! you got your bayld gear on and some rem's tales stored up and a couple drops towards your reforged relic! What else?

Unity! like sparks they cap at 50,000 so you gotta burn them up and unity nms drop lots of cool stuff

WKR! Wildskeepers rieves (also in ROE!!!) bring ***piles of reraise and get your JSE capes on!

Oboro! after you win exactly ONE high tier battle field you unlock this doucher who has some cool crap you can buy in 1/47th of the time of building a relic

/rocks his three song terpsderp harp like an electric guitar

we'll get to forri porri, skirmish, incursion, and delve later

A lot of people feel this way...but you are really going to wish you had saved every single spark for Rem's tales about half way through your second job

Maybe for 119 upgrades, but if you have a small group(can't remember if Misa is playing with Meshi or not) they'll have more luck using Sparks gear and spamming lower tiers of the battlefields until the gear up and can do higher tiers.

If it's your second job, your first job should already be geared enough to do it imho or else you probably shouldn't be on this second job to begin with.

For 109 upgrades? The seals fights are even simpler and can even be done with trusts.

I just feel Bayld is better saved for either smaller adoulin transactions or for purchasing/selling HQ Bayld for gil.

Shneddick +1 is awesome though and it's level 117
you can survive a "normal" high tier bcnm battle in it.
and the smaller delve nms you get the accessories from like asperity necklace and earings.

Personally, my drop rate sucks on the easy versions of the bcnm fights. you can get seals that way...but you better have a ***pile of seals

I read some of your words and blacked out due to overexposure.
My brain can only handle so much information at once. "They" call it a "handicap", I call it a faulty valve.

I have purchased sparks gear for all my jobs, and the skill up gear as well. I even finally got my SAM to 49 and have been subbing it on DRK, much to my dismay. I have to admit though, it is a good sub...
