Jack of All Trades Turns 50

You advanced to level 50 of Jack of All Trades!

Yeah, okay, that's never actually shown. But with this range level, I finally hit "all skills 50+".

You advanced to level 50 of ranging!

Next goal... all skills 60+ hehe. Though not prioritized, as I wanna get eng and manu to 100 and do the god switch stuff.


NEW PERK - Managed to get in and get the new quest perk before certain prices rose.

Meanwhile...

Tailoring: Decided running back and forth on school days to get about 35 blue dyes poofed in the tailor school each time was getting monotonous. So, with some calculating, determined that if I do things right I can get slightly better "exp per gc" by poofing blue fabrics instead.

So I'm prepping 3k ings to do so. Started with the 3k blue dyes, which led to...

You advanced to level 51 of tailoring!

To do that, I needed saltpeter of course, and the ashes for those. So 3k saltpeter for the dyes led to:

You advanced to level 75 of engineering!

3k of saltpeter requires 6k of ashes, which in turn requires 18k branches. Some proof that I don't bother going to high level stuff to level harvesting anymore, I got this while harving those branches:

You advanced to level 111 of harvesting!

Current Plans (always subject to change, heh):
- Waiting on special days to get more poofing of ings done for speed leveling
- restocking my C1 rings. Been eating them like candy lately, so harving to mix more.
- Continue stocking for tailoring school. Next up is 3k white fabrics, and some AEs.
- Um... other stuff. Whatever I feel like doing. ;-)



The Pears Continue to be Munched

13 more found since last post, bringing the total found to 59. And well, much more to come, hehe.





Aeth Aelfan - Wyrmgoth Cave - This was a particularly tricky one. One of the last maps checked, and it turned out to be in the very last possible piece of wolframite after having checked everything else. Patience and determination were definite keys for this one. Oh, and swords of course. ;-)





North Redmoon - Volcano - Big Red was following me around, so keeping to a pattern so I knew what had been checked was particularly difficult. But I finally managed to stumble on it.





Hurquin - Hobgoblin cave - Not so much in the way of harvables here, just very spread out. A few unreachables as well.





Imbroglio Islands - Hydro Cave - If it's on this map, it has to be in the hydro. I've learned to keep enough swords around after my hydro runs for just such a case.





Iscalrith - A tricky map with harvs well spread out and many "hiding" under trees and such. I got lucky this time and stumbled on it only 5.5 minutes into the day, which included actually finding the map.





Aeth Aelfan - Wyrmgoth Cave (again) - A "kinda secret" area with iron and coal inside here, the pear was in the iron.





Southern Kileran Field - Limited number of harvables, most all low-level, means it's only a matter of minutes to find the pear on here once the map is determined.





Irinveron - Yeti Cave - Some trickiness to this map in that most all the minerals/ores have at least a few hidden inside the walls. Fortunately found it before I had to start checking all those.





Tahraji Desert - Dragon Cave - Limited harvables but two different ores requiring swords, which I've had to check before. This time I was fortunate and found it in the first group of quartz not far from the entrance.





Idaloran - Double FCW cave - A few of the white chantarelles seen near me in this pic are unreachable, and it's been there on a past occasion. This time it was reachable though.





Ruins of Tirnym - First time hunting here. And it was a real competition with at least 3 others hunting on the map along with me. I lucked out and found it first.





Valley of the Dwarves - Gold Mine 2nd Level - So much, so spread out, and a load of gold that is unreachable due to bad mapmaking (honestly). However, in this case it was just in the ogre toes.





Tarsengaard - 4th time hunting on this map, first time being the first to find it. So much, so spread out that it can be difficult keeping track of what's been checked.
