Been back adventuring for a few weeks now. Really enjoying myself. Still haven't got to grips with the enormous amount of items in my inventory - reserved two bags for crafting and filled them up!

Content-wise I've used Trust to complete RotZ, CoP and ToAU. Part-way through WotG at the moment - can't wait to get through it and start SoA and RoV. Got a few quests from the original areas (jobs & weaponskills mainly) and a number from ToAU that I also need to clear...

Having said that, it's Records of Eminence which I've actually been doing. All those boxes to tick and free XP to boot. Kinda accidentally used a lot of it for DNC, but now focusing on getting WHM from 95 to 99 with it.

So that's why I ended up at the end of Castle Oztroja last night. Unfortunately, the connection was terrible last night - other people in the Linkshell I just joined also mentioned it, but the fault whatever it was was affecting my entire connection, not just to FFXI. It meant for some slow adventuring and ultimately a d/c at 1am right where the Yagudo High Priest spawns. That means when I log back in on my WHM96 (with no decent gear), I'm going to be slaughtered. Just hope I can cast Invisible before I get enmity!

As for FFXIclopedia - sad to see that, although users are still slowly but surely updating pages, the Protected Pages are so out of date. Some of the base templates and functionality (eg map tooltips) are failing too, so I'm hoping to come up with some suggestions that maybe the one or two people who seem to have a semi-admin status can approve.
