    Happy with what I got done, considering I had a 15 hour day at work Saturday. Only thing I'm upset about is I lost my favorite retainer name. If I find out who stole it, I'mma stomp them into the ground.

    CNJ to 17

    Plans to get CNJ to 20 and at least one gathering and one crafting class to 20 did not materialize. Still not too bad for this weekend considering 3102.

    My main goal was to get archer to at least 15, which is what I barely managed to accomplish. I'm not too far away from airship quest. Wish I didn't have to spend most of friday/saturday/sunday camping.

    If rata started spelling everything right and using proper grammar, I think I'd be sad. I've come to love how horrible this person types.

    I took everything really slow and got THM to 20 and CNJ to 16. Really enjoying it though so far. Healing a dungeon was more fun/hectic than I expected, had a blast on CNJ, might just continue on up to WHM.

    He did that one time, proper grammar and everything. First thing that came to mind was "No way...impossibru..." so I called him out on it and he coughed up the link to the article he copy pasted from lol.

    THM 19, WVR 13, and a bunch of materia gotten. Spent time unlocking jobs cause hey why not, but later realized I might as well have waited since hunting logs require me to go to their starting city any ways. Got great gear from some dungeons though that will get spiritbonded asap after early release. Oh well, had a blast. I was on the fence about this game up until now, but goodness I'm all in.

    Finished all other DoW/M class quests.
    Main story up to the 2nd instanced dungeon.
    Inventory collected and tidied.
    HUD's the way I want it.

    Even with getting 3102'd for basically all of Sunday I'm pretty satisfied. If I had more time I'd have gone on an aether-hunting world tour since I never ran out to Mor Dhona and stuff.

    The fail part was you believing it came from me lol

    Also unlocking class is good because each new class gives you 1 more gear set slot

    Only got to play for a few hours on Friday and Saturday, then I caught the 3102. I don't know how many pages that OF "Post here if you get the 3102 bug" got up to, but I was on page 140ish

    Logged on this morning to log out in an inn, and sort my retainers' inventory. What a boring weekend.

    How was people's experience in the dungeons? I avoided them due to fear of 3102. Not expecting a lot for the early game instances, but curious nonetheless. E.g. are they worth running, and if so, why? E.g. because of the fun factor, or because its great xp, gear that will last 10 lvls, etc

    EXP is meh. Gear progression is a huge factor. It's very noticeable if your gear isn't up to par.

    Edit: That said, had there been no cap, I would not have done halitali 6 times. Maybe twice and then moved the fuck on.

    Exp adds up quickly, but is just a fluff to everything else (unless it's your first run, completion bonus is huge). Each dungeon gives you a handful of coffers that each have a piece of gear in it. It ranged from better then normal crafted gear to WAY better then normal crafted gear. Pretty much obvious that the gear we try to go for comes from dungeons, and crafted gear we use as fluff to get materia to put onto said gear. Each dungeon is loads of fun, etc.

    I enjoyed the dungeons quite a bit. On THM trying to keep things slept and DD main target was a ton of fun, and I had even more fun on CNJ healing everyone, but I'm also with Sath, after about the 3rd run it gets a little bland. Like everything probably depends on the group your with as well, I actually had some decent pugs and had fun joking on them and shit. Community seems decent so far.
