Almost Novus?! Jeez...we don't see many of those here. Also, don't worry about Ramuh. You can get free i110 upgrades via hunts and tons of glamours as well. I scraped up 2 sands of time in 6 hours of hunting! I also moved to a different FC last month and made some really good friends who share my hardcore mindset. The server is a lot more lively since patch and I'm happy SE is finally removing all the RNG from gearing up.
