Sometimes, you just want a good 'ol grind

[Gemina]

Today I finished making the left and right side from 2 patches ago, upgrading the purple scrip set to the crafted HQ stuff.
Melded the left side out completely, left the right as 3's and 4's.
Didn't bother with the tools and offhand.

Then I started on the right hand side of the new stuff. Managed 2 rings and started the earing before I ran out of purple crafting scrip. I'll get more of that in 11 hours, so I'll pick up then.

Nice job! Every step forward is a step towards your goal. Keep at it.

Haha, you may not want to see a scrip or collectible again when you get done with all the gripgel and immutable solution.

Btw, not sure where your current gear and stats are but you can get earthbreak aethersand fairly easily from aetherial reduction to save on having to farm some scrips. Especially if you have a fisher. You can spearfish guppies for sands in the new Bronze Lake location and also get sands from their predator, Nosceasaur.

Oh, thanks for the tip! Garland tools didn't mention aetherial reduction can be used to acquire the sands, and they're usually a pretty reliable source. Luckily I didn't put too much time into farming those scrips, but it was also one of the easier and more relaxing portions of this grind.
