GUPS 010

Holding true to my new Crafting philosophy, I have been burning through the Adept ranks and am now midway through the 90s as well. Although it might not be the cheapest way to level Alchemy, I plan on targeting recipes with abundant ingredients to reach 100 as soon as possible.

On a side note, I have also decided against purchasing abjurations for the time being. By doing so, I hope to avoid arguing with Ariane and use the savings for synthesizing HQ cursed pieces.

Other Stuff





 

Above, I tackled some KS30 Copycat runs with Masani last week, and we both netted some decent drops for our pockets. Sadly, I already used my earnings to purchase many Iron Ingots, Bomb Arms, and pinches of Bomb Ash and Sulfur for my Alchemy marathon. 




New MP merits thanks to the merit PT above. I have decided to place points into MP rather than BLM-specific merits because I have a very small MP pool as an Elvaan. With 765 MP, I can only cast four tier IV nukes or two AM spells unless "Conserve MP" kicks in, so I am hoping 80 more MP can provide me with some much needed relief.



















I have also adjusted the banner slightly, and I doubt I can improve on it anymore. Moreover, I have edited both myself and Liabelle, and the hardest part was drawing the faint streaks in Lia's hair (shown above in red). Originally, I had no idea how to approach this task, but after recalling a similar technique that I used on Snippy, I decided to try my hand on Lia as well.
