Horizon plan

Buy all my thf gear upgrades
Finish fishing guild point items(fish daily while signed up to fishing guild)
Save up Gil to cap subs and 100 bonecaft 
Switch guilds to bonecraft get all the guild point items 

Start seriously leveling everything 66+

Start working on taking digging to 100
Start working on mandau 

Gear 7 days
Enough Gil to lvl subs and 100 bc 10 days
Fishing gp a long time maybe 5 months
Lvling subs and bc shouldn’t take long at all. Maybe 3 weeks tops
Getting all bc gp probably another 5 months

All jobs 66+ no idea but expecting several months 6+ most likely 

Daily digging for skill. Expecting about a year and a half
Mandau expecting about 6 months


Definitely don’t plan lvling with bis just good enough is fine
Once I get gear and have crafts capped
My need for Gil goes wwwaaaayyy down
Meaning I’ll have Gil im not spending
Meaning I can take time out of my day to dig

I want everything capped like I have on retail
I just like being done and I don’t want to waste time getting there

Even on retail with every relic every empy all 99 most mastered. I still only play 2 jobs

I want to get all jobs 75
I only plan on playing thf and blu

I’m not at all concerned about exploring 
I don’t care about soloing nms

All I want to do is make as much Gil as possible 
And cap everything as quickly as possible 

I want that I have everything I’ve done everything 
Now my reward is getting to stand in town and do nothing with everything done


HorizonXI THF to-do list(things I need to buy)

Last night I managed to snag homam head, hands, legs
I'm sitting at 660k and asking price for feet is 600k to 700k feet are the next piece of equipment I'll get
I think body is nice +15 acc is super but it's just 15 acc and 1% ta so meh really but I do want it just putting it on the back burner.

Okay listing all the equip I know I need to buy

Weapon:
Blau Dolch    850k
Possibly try for X's Knife

Ranged:
Ziskas crossbow    750k

Head:
Optical hat    240k
hecatomb    

Neck:
Peacock charm/amulet
Love torque    1m

Ear:
Brutal Earring    600k
Stealth Earring    600k

Body:
Scorpion Harness+1    650k
Homam body
Hecatomb    600k

Hands:
Dusk Gloves+1(No rush but do want eventually)
Hecatomb

Ring:
need an upgrade to snipers ring, maybe toreadors ring    300k
possibly the agi+5 rings and str+5 ring Breeze and Flame

Back:
Boxer's Mantle 600k
Commander's Cape or Forager's Mantle    410k

Waist:
Sprinters belt/Speed belt/Sonic belt(Sonic belt being the best but 30m would take a few weeks if not months to save up)

Legs:
Hecatomb

Feet:
Hecatomb
Homam    700k

missing a few pieces just can't remember the names(few pieces of crow/raven for eva, Morion earring for int)
I need to get as good as I possibly can for TP/WS set
I also need INT set for bloody bolts
and I need the best evasion set I can get

THF is the only job I want to gear seriously for 75
I do plan on lvling every job 66+ but I don't want to play any of them outside of getting 66+ for maat's cap

Once I have all my sets complete(maybe delaying Dusk Gloves+1 and Sonic belt)
I plan on saving up around 5 or 6 million and leveling bonecraft to 100 plus all subs to 60
No rush on bonecraft as I do want to unlock all fishing guild point items before I switch over to the bonecraft guild

Once I have all my sets complete, Bonecraft 100 and all subs capped
Maats cap getting close to complete
then I start saving up towards my relic
and leveling digging

Eventually in a year or two
I want a perfect thf every gear set perfected, 100 fishing + ebisu & all guild point items, 100 bonecraft + all subs capped + all guild point items, Maat's cap, 100 digging, and Mandau

When ToAU is released I plan on lvling all those jobs but I don't care about playing cor or pup
I will however play BLU

my char will be main thf and blu

it'll probably take 2 months to save up enough gil for everything on my list excluding dusk+1 and sonic those will take much longer
guild points for fishing could take 2 or 3+ more months

having a great time working on my character
horizon really is a great server and 100% I prefer horizon to retail

Currently I'm making around 800k per day fishing Lik
Not too confident bonecraft will increase my gil per day much higher as crafting has always been a major gamble

Just glad to have sea unlocked, 100 fishing, ebisu all that before toau release
Now I can level blu up and get all the amazing sea spells

It's really not a lot I need to buy
and from what I hear 5m is enough to 100 bc

gonna be glad to get mostly everything done where all I need to worry about is daily digging and saving for mandau
Surely toau will be out by then and at that point I need to work on a mythic

New Download 6-26-26(Chat)

Added a new program to the downloads page

Program is very simple
Wrote in C# not Python like my usual program are wrote with



Only works on Horizon as that is where I needed it for.
Horizon needs to be loaded with character logged in
Also need to launch as administrator(Like always)

You type what you want to type then press send or enter
Pin is an always on top option

This is used mainly if you are using a fish bot
while a fish bot is running it can be very difficult to type in game as your messages can look like "G6666666o4444o664446D 666Mo4444r6666ni5555g" if you just say good morning because the bot is fighting the fish with 4 and 6 and that makes it very obvious you are using a tool.
Other issues can also come up when trying to type while running bots

Can also be used while not using a bot for instance if you have your browser in another window and you want to reply to a ls message but dont want to bring ffxi to the front

been dabbling with my C# writing
still not confident enough to write anything on my own but I can make things work and I'm getting a better understanding now.

website maintenance + website stats + quick update

Getting about time to consider some changes to the website
freshen things up
maybe move crafting compass back to trinket and get rid of the render version
consider changing the layout

just some simple changes

stats update:
this last year has been the biggest year for upbe4t.com yet over 90,000 views in the past 12 months
the horizon fishing guide has got over 350 views since being posted
to think we were only at 20,000 views after about 13 years being live
and in the past two years jumped from 20,000 views to over 128,000 views

this website really does not get the attention it deserves from me
I post when I have something I think others could benefit from or updates to what I am doing in game
when I finally get back on my feet irl hopefully I can get back to taking this site serious and actually get some good content out
my ssi is supposed to get fixed in 2 months and that will give a ton of freedom to actually pump out content
I have 10 more months of supervision then I can start smoking and drinking again which really triggers my creative side to create that good content
as far as programming i've really hit a wall, everything that can be made already is made and I have no idea what I could write that isn't already written
my last project was converting a .py I wrote to a c# standalone and it worked the program works and everything went as planned but during the process I learnt c# is very very different from .py and requires several steps i'm not really comfortable with yet. Really I just need to learn the commands and the code structure
end game for programming, I want to clean up and enhance the all in one tool
the hard part about that is the code to run that all in one is about 3,500 lines long of .py
straight converting to c# would be impossible
and the only way to reliably upgrade it is to break it all down to sections for what it does
need to save the beginning of the code, break all the things it can do into separate sections, and save the end of the code
then go in to all the different sections add and remove more lines of code
then have the beginning, middle sections, and end section all work together like they should
and once you get past about 3,000 lines gemini no longer works properly and you'll get page terminated
so while I would love to jump on this and get an upgraded version out
it's going to take most likely a long time before I can get to it
and embarrassing to say but the main reason, I'm too interested in actually playing horizon rn to want to take a break from horizon to work on my all in one  that maybe 4 people besides me actually use
possibly isolating the tools but then I lose my ability to use keys
it's something i'll have to sit down with some smokes and coffee and a lot of alone free time to figure out.

On the bright side:
SSI is going up, just maybe 2 more months of waiting
Supervision only has 10 more months, only 9 more office visits
I can finish paying my fees in 7 months
I get my ebisu this sunday
making major progress with CoP only 1 more path of 5-3 left

the girls are all napping hard
waiting for my mom to come over, she's supposed to bring some rent money, toilet paper, and kitty litter
I currently have Degrassi Season 3 on PlutoTV playing
Which I watch daily since I lost my disney+ sub BUT I will get it back hopefully before October Gotta watch Hocus Pocus all october

My little apartment is going great just me and my three girls
Salem gets to go outside all the time, she went out today, but it was a little too hot for us today  88F

got my ebt today and spent $80 on groceries
5 pounds of chicken breast, pound and a half of beef fajita, 3 cups of folgers instant coffee, head of lettuce, reeses chips ahoy, grape juice, pico de gallo, guacamole, 2 pounds of fresh peaches, large tortillas
realized as soon as I left the store I forgot tuna, salt, and chicken seasoning
I'll probably go back as soon as I post this to get that stuff.

I need to do my dishes, Sweep + mop, and change the litter box
which is stuff I always need to do lol

Anyways before this post gets entirely too long
time to post it and get on my way

I'll see you guys next post!
