Not Dead

I'm not dead, I'm just sleeping.

I know it's been awhile since I've made an update. And this update won't include any fancy screenshots or anything. For those of you that I still message in game from time to time when I come on for dynamis this news post is probably a pointless read, although I will summarize what I have been up to for the past few months.

At the end of February my last HNMLS Element was officially declared dead. Because I felt there was no linkshells for me to join that would accept me and make me happy at the same time I took the opportunity to try out the free trial of World of Warcraft, a game I thought I would never touch. Within a single day of the free trial I was hooked and went out and bought the game and the expansion so I could restart as one of the expansion races. I have to admit that I can now see more clearly how many flaws FFXI has when compared to a real addicting MMO, and I have kept very busy and much entertained throughout my playtime in WoW with so far not more then a few minutes of down time. I am currently almost level 69 and hopefully soon to be raiding the end game bosses and PvPing to earn all the great gear I keep hearing about. However saying that I feel I might have more free time once I am level 70 and could see my reappearance on the FFXI scene in a minimal capacity.

In FFXI I haven't been logging on for more then dynamis for the past few months, in May I was only on once a week even. My dynamis shell PerfectAtaraxia has been accomplishing a lot considering our decreasing attendance since Christmas, with only about 30 members per run we are still completing relic armor sets and relic weapons. I am currently 0 for 7 on my attestation with two more attempts to go still in the next week and a half to hopefully complete this linkshells third weapon. If any of you that I know well are interested in dynamis and feel you would be in for the long haul please let me know and I will speak with you about joining up.

I currently am a Free Agent in terms of FFXI, with no linkshell and high expectations I will field offers from potential shells. I am not that interested in being a jack of all trades anymore however and would prefer to specialize in a small number of activities, with my highest interests being in Assault, Salvage and Sea. I have much to offer and a lot of free time on weeknights (Mon-Wed-Thurs after 8pm PST) and weekends. I will not treat FFXI like a job however and will always go out with friends over playing a game.

I have four jobs to offer and 3 sets of Jailer of Hope sets. I will not use them unless I am guaranteed a Hope Torque. I am experienced in all aspects of FFXI, and have done everything the game has to offer, I strive to be the best at my job and do not respond well to incompetent people and people who make the same mistake more then once. If this is too highly demanding then I'm sorry but you are probably too carebear for me.
