The bad: I have tried to slap God knows how much materia on my stupid Astral Ring for my crafters. It just doesn't want to take more than two currently on it.

The good: Formed a learning party for Leviathan Ex last night, a few FC members and LS members graciously decided to help as well. We cleared it on the fourth try. Mirror of the Whorl dropped. Rolled a 66.... Got the Mirror.
