NM Hunting / Graphic Adjustments
I decided after I got 55 Dragoon to take a break from leveling it for obvious reasons. I got so much to do before I feel the need to level it up more. One of those things was leveling up other jobs + subjobs. I decided i was gonna level Smn,Whm, and Blm first, to at least 20. I'll probably level Whm to 37 one day but for now i just want to get all the related jobs to equal levels so they can share equipment and i can try to save space.
So i'm starting with Smn and i'm trying to do low budget leveling by getting items from NM's that i could use, while using some items i already had. Here's some pics.
This one was just found during farming. The other person is from ClanDestine too i just don't think they realized i was, but they helped me farm a little, and i gave them some items too.
I also decided to check out my graphics and what not since i really thought my game looked like crap. Since i made the switch to PC i like running it in the official Windowed mode still so i can look up stuff if i need to. I messed around with a lot of different setups and i really think it made a difference.
BEFORE:
AFTER:
We'll say how it works out or if i decide to change anything else. I'm running my desktop on 1024 x 768, but I decided on 800 x 600 for FFXI. Unforunately to make my LJ look nice i had to scale down the pics as usual so i think it took away from the quality, also i think from changing them from ~1.5mb BMP's to 60kb JPG's and then sending them through Photobucket turns em into crap too. But in game i think i can really tell the difference from the tweaks i've made.
MOG BONANZA IN 4 DAYS!!!!!!!!! (not that i'll win anything....)
--It'll be nice to get my inventory space back.
