Progress report – week 1

Final Fantasy XIV

Last week i only played Final Fantasy XIV after discovering that i have an open subscription to this game. Right now, you could find me on Shiva- the name’s Deidra Winter- and my current plan is:

  • get Botanic up to the level of the Arcanist; right now Level 22
  • get Weaver up there, as well
  • continue in the storyline to the point that the Story-Quest Level equals that of my Arcanist
  • rejoin my Free Company

I made progress, somewhat. I’m a level 18 Botanist right now and a level 13 Weaver. Since FF XIV always gets me sidetracked, i also got my Leatherworking skill up to Level 6. I do like how crafting disciplines are co-dependant in this game, but i think the auction house mechanic is somewhat clunky and isn’t good at giving an overview of the market. So i just thought i’ll help myself out with leather. Sooner or later i think i’ll get to all crafting classes anyway.

This game offers breathtaking views

Levelling is kind of slow at the moment, though. Gathering and crafting are somewhat grindy, even at those levels, and adventuring is slow because i’m all over the place for the story quests. Nevertheless, i like my experience so far and will continue to sub. Also, i’m really looking forward to a snow zone.
