So here we are October 2023, and progress since July has actually been huge. My primary goal at the moment is to start laying groundwork to be prepared for the Expansion next year. This requires me to grab the high tome gear and ensure I’m geared up correctly for the expansion, usually Tome gear will allow for at least progress through around a third of the expansion unhindered. Added of course to the Manderville Weapon whose final piece will arrive with 6.55.
But as you can see, in terms of current progress all my healers are now 90! As are all my Range DPS, and Magical Ranged DPS. So the next task is to level the Melee DPS and Tanks. It has not proved easy and Dragoon was a very painful experience. I find I’m much more comfortable if I have a decent set of AoE attacks. It takes about 2 weeks to level a class the way I’m currently playing, I suspect it would be faster if I sank more time in. But if I had to class is disliked then I’d definitely have to say Dragoon is my least favourite.
Also at 90 are every Disciple of Hand and Disciple of Land class, though the DoL have been 90 for a while now. And of course I continue to try to make progress toward the Platinum trophy on the PS5. With everything done that matters even into the new 6.5 patch we simple wait until January for the final part of Endwalker and the prequel to Dawntrail.
It is oddly amusing how somehow this game has become a bit of a fashion game for me, as I craft outfits to amuse myself, I’m most proud of my Sailor Moon and Alice in Wonderland ones. While some can prove costly it’s all in good fun.
Of course I try to keep Aerian within her original narrative as the cocky girl with a big heart. The rebellious natured side comes out during playing healer, trust me folks never make a healer work harder than they have to! But mostly I stick with Summoner and which ever class I’m levelling. At the moment those are Samurai for general Duties and Gunbreaker for PvP.
