Bring on February

My in-game exploits continue to focus on my mythic weapon. The Aegis has taken a small back-seat due to needs for my blue mage, but they are definitely helpful needs.

I happened to procure the abjuration for amalric hands on Thursday morning. Not having the necessary gil for them, I asked a LS mate for a loan to buy the cursed piece. Funny enough, the piece had dropped in price by 50% over a very short time so I was able to get it at the AH for 1.9M. They were not as huge of an improvement on my magic set like the feet were, but they were still a boost. At this point, the NQ Gear in Salvage will go down in 3 casts when all my gear is on - even if one of those casts is a half resist. The triple gears still take an extra cast if one is resisted, as they get down to 10% with a half resist (they die with 3 unresisted Subductions).

I also got enough login points to get another Dusktip Stone +2 and put it on my Telchine Braconi. This time I got INT+9 which is what I was after.

Those improvements have my subductions at 3788 now with a fruit parfait in Salvage. Pretty solid.

Other than Amalric Gages, no new gear to speak of.

I did 2 assaults with LS mates in Ilrusi and got clears for those, and I did 3 more in Lebros Caverns. That puts me halfway done with Lebros (next is the Apkallu pairing one), and two difficult ones in Ilrusi cleared (Lost & Found, and Desperately Seeking Cephalopods).

The helpful thing is I needed the Assault Points anyway because I had run out! My plan is to do 2 or 3 assaults whenever I run out, then use the points on Salvage.

Once I finish my assault logs, I will just use the first lieutenant assaults when I need points.

This morning I duo'd some T1 Escha Zi'tah NMs on my Paladin to keep that fresh. We did Cunnast and Wepwawet fairly easily, although my friend did die to Gates of Hades towards the end. Luckily, it was me who had the trusts spawned.

I hope this month brings me another 10k Alexandrite, and finishes off my Nyzul tokens and Assault logs. Meanwhile, I will keep procuring Silverpieces when I can. I paid back the loan, so now my gil can go back to buying Silverpieces.
