75! Horizon

Got my first 75 this morning! Thief so I can do some high level farming now

Been lvling fishing up to 14 in about 3 days

Working towards Lu Shang 

It seems like everyone has ebisus on this server

I’m thinking about making Lu Shangs with my mules

Because if I can catch about 600 moat a day it works out to like 300k per day if it takes 16 days to catch all 10k

I think that’s the best Gil option for me until I can get fishing higher and some better gear

Going to be farming for a few weeks

Then I want to start leveling bst so I can actually get in cop groups

Got to rank 7 from 5 to 7 in one night

Lots of fishing ahead of me. Love that horizon doesn’t use a fatigue system so I can literally fish allllll day long

My thoughts retail vs horizon

As most people know I have quit paying my sub for retail and moved to horizon

Retail just doesn’t do it for me anymore

I don’t like any of the endgame events

The only one I like at all is master leveling said that numerous times

Dyna d, sortie, omen, odyssey I don’t care for any of them

Getting a master pt and getting to play my favorite jobs is great but it isn’t enough

Also I enjoy digging fishing and crafting but it’s hard to call any of that worth it

I miss my friends

But I don’t miss all the know it alls in the linkshell that answer every question but also seem to be stroking it as they do it

I don’t miss that new players ask questions and I can’t even remember the answer because I did that content 20 years ago

And I’m past the point of wanting to wiki it to help I don’t want to wiki it to help lol

Horizon is great. I can get multiple parties a day usually. Eco warrior is pretty fun. High wind is great. I’m having a blast. It’s like I’m playing the exact same game but at a better time in the games life.

I can camp nms and while I don’t exactly care for claim shield I’ve got used to it. I can’t wait to start fishing and digging then eventually crafting after I get rich. Sitting at 450k rn but I’ll be spending all my Gil soon once I get 75 on 75 gear

Camping spook has been the greatest ffxi thing since idk when maybe abyssea lol it’s been a long time since I’ve had a group that actually coordinated not that spook has much coordination but I enjoy it

Retail hasn’t had nm camping in soooo sooooooooooooo long the competition is nice even if claim shield causes you to not get claim but that’s okay

Hoping to get 75 next week but I’ve got a lot of prepping I need to do before maat. Mainly hit 70 get a good buffer and finish artifact gear capping skills also wouldn’t hurt

I really hope toau gets delayed as long as possible. I don’t want to even think about needing to level those jobs up or doing the missions or working on a mythic

Really interested in pushing my pc to the limit on horizon to get the best graphics while maintaining 60fps

Addons and plugins are great but I don’t get to serious about them

I like that hacking is a big no no

That you can only have 1 char per ip 

That buying/selling Gil and accounts actually always ends up in a ban

Bottling always ends up in bans

It’s a little hard for me since I know how to write programs to bot and I know how to use my programs safely 

Getting fishing or digging capped without a bot just sounds like hell 

And having to use the will power to do it legit and not bot is something I don’t know if I can do

But I’d love to give it a shot

Anyways quick update retail and horizon

I think horizon is honestly a better game

I don’t think retail has a single thing going for it

Even if I worked my ass off on retail and made 300m or 600m what would that even mean there’s nothing left I want

Of course I can play my bis jobs in master parties but I’ve been doing master parties for like 6 years now lol

It’s getting old

Horizon is going great having a ton of fun can’t wait to get some of the real end game trophies 

Horizon All in one

As promised.

Although I don't know why anyone would want it. Considering horizon is so strict on this type of stuff.

didn't test on another machine so could fail just tried on my main laptop

i'll test tomorrow when I have more time

pull the product key from the same list for the retail version:

https://www.upbe4t.com/p/crafter-product-keys.html

if using on horizon which is the only pserver tested but should work on most

look for Horizon-loader.exe

if using on another pserver look for whatever your exe is called(No testing done on other private servers)

enjoy

remember to run as administrator

Another Horizon post

Incoming! Another Horizon post

did a 100 hour stream, got 600 views

that's decent, I didn't pay any attention to chat so missed out on some interactions with my viewers

up to lvl 69 thief

been seeking for 2 days now with no invites

trying to get to 70 with a decent buffer then i'll start trying to do maat

I think I could win doing the melee method but I am going to try the steal method a few times first

an old friend from way back in the day loaned me so steal+ gear

and I am working on thf af finished the first fight and the gambling just need to do the second fight then start working on the other pieces

I know I need to get 70 and all the steal+ pieces

once I get 75 thief i'll start leveling other jobs that will get me in more groups

bst smn blm whm pld etc

getting thief to 75 is very important for gil farming to be able to buy gear for my other jobs

currently my most wanted item is th4 gloves from dyna

I just doubt I can find a dyna ls that will let me join as a th3 thf with no other jobs to try to win the lot on th4 gloves

so i'll need to level other jobs to 75 first before I can even seriously think about getting those gloves

i'll need to win all the starter cities then finally make it to the next tier of dyna

someone dropped the price of mantles >.>(Indigowest) from 40k to 37k I have 6 mantles listed and none selling because the price drop holding on as long as I can hoping it goes back up

would be terrible for someone to ruin the price trying to unload quickly when that is what all of us are doing for gil

I'm sitting at 205k and I have about 250k of things on ah so about 450k all together

which will go in no time by the time I reach 75 and need to upgrade all my gear

I want the thf brygid body I want homam set I want blau dolch I want brutal and suppa and rajas

so much good stuff i'm gated behind but that's the dream

still undecided on a relic but I think mandau is #1 choice rn

no idea what relics cost or how so many exist I would expect 120m-180m could be more or less

aegis would be cool guttler would be nice ghorn would be sweet 

i'm really leaning towards main thf for all the gil farming I can do so the only choice really is mandau but we will find out in a few years when I can realistically get one

gotta be some trick to it because the server is 3 years old and you see relic in every zone

so granted most the relic owners started early and were in groups building up none that had already been doing it

that's only 3 years to make the 120m-300m on a server where botting is no allowed gil buying is not allowed

maybe people are paying ls leaders rl money to lot the currency I have no idea what the illegal trick is yet but obviously it's easier than expected or there is some exploit to get all that currency

pretty cool knowing kuftal tunnel devil manta angel skins is only like 5 levels away

that was the main reason I made my horizon acc

it was my favorite event back in the day and got ruined by abyssea so to get to do it over again would be so sweet

when I started angel skins were going for 600k and now they are down to 480k so already a huge loss but still enough to make major profit

sorry for no pics

it's late, 10pm, which usually is not late but I need to wake up early and prepare for probation tomorrow

I may edit in some screenshots tomorrow

1 year in to probation with 1 year to go

but mathing it all out i've been in trouble for 3 years and I have 1 year to go

75% done !!!

I got all my rent money, I can pay my fees, down to $40 left for court costs and $720 left for supervision

Everything depends on my ssi check getting fixed and I am going to call them when they open in the morning to get an update because if I don't get my full check i'm going to be completely SOL

snap in 18 days and I can get a ton of food which means more energy to post and play horizon

one last thing, in the next retail update a npc dialog is added to check chocobo digging skill

which doesn't mean much as you could already check skill with zone area delay but still neat

kinda pointless as the community had already found a way to do it and if your skill is capped what's the point, definitely not worth reactivating just to talk to the npc but sorta neat
