    So how was your Day One?

    Did you accomplish everything you wanted to do?
    What did you end up doing first?
    Was anything extra surprising/disappointing to you?

    ---
    I think I got most of what I wanted to do done today
    (except finish red scrips... I realized with horror I wouldn't cap them this week unless I extended my 24hour no sleep session....ugh)

    I started with new items on the MB, and looking at the new /sit stuff.
    I really enjoyed the Diadem; I can't wait to start hosting gathering parties when our FC airship finally reaches max level, haha.
    I also unlocked the Arboretum, but not Pharos Sirius yet. I'll get to it.
    I liked Lord of Verminion but I'm not too good yet... with practice maybe I'll get better.
    I REALLY LIKED Void Ark and cannot wait for the next part. I get sick lag though. That's fun...wait no it isn't.
    Ended with new glamour, of course.

    Clearly, the best Final Fantasy character is Locke Cole.
    Glamour is TRUE ENDGAME

    First, new /sit pose is really nice for my highlander
    Second, I REALLY HAPPY with the new metallic dye so you don't need to buy at Mog Station anymore (I can collect many metallic speedo )
    Third, I enjoy the Void Ark. It's funny with JP people when looking the boss and shout like "eww disgusting" together.
    Fourth, Room brightness is awesome!
    Fifth, The Diadem is really cool. But I don't know where to get the ilv 210 gear...
    Sixth, The glamour is somehow looks nice.

    Still need to explore more.

    So far
    - Cleared both new dungeons as healer for now. Arboretum is ok but there were wipes with party on Pharos though.
    - Cleared Void Ark once, I'm not too fond with the theme however. xD
    - Tried Verminion for a bit, really enjoying this. You could win by just deploying minion that cost 10 capacity and has ATK buff for party skill.
    - Did Diadem with full FC members, it's fun if you did it with people you know.

    Will be doing more Diadem tonight and maybe blind run Thordan HM too.

    The ilvl210 Mist gears in Diadem can be found inside Gold Chests after defeating any high rank mobs (preferably rank V or NM) if you're lucky. Go with people you can trust so you don't get outrolled by strangers if you found any piece you want with desirable secondary stats.

    I despise pharaoh Sirius HM lol that last boss had everyone mad cause the mechanics are simple but yea...

    Belladonna was rough on the healer

    The void ark run was horrible lol we spend almost 20mins on that horrible third boss that spits bile.

    All in all PHaraoh Sirius HM is going to be the new neverreap of ex roulette lol

    Did Void Ark which I really enjoyed. Haven't done the new dungeons or Thordan Ex yet. Did some exploration with my fc which was ok.

    Tried the new minion game. Not sure what to make if it yet but it seems like it has potential.

    Since we can lose houses now if we don't play I decided I would sell mine and got 12.5 million for it. I can use the fc house anyway so it didn't really matter.

    I did the new dungeons. I enjoyed Arboretum. Pharos was kinda boring. Never been a fan of the aesthetics of it. Because of the coin flip nature of the roulettes, I'm running those very sparingly.

    I thought the first thing I'd be doing after logging in would be to look at the market board to try on the new clothes, but the first thing I ended up doing was stopping our FC's plants from dying and our chocobos from starving..xD
    The mundane things, you know? x)
    That's when I saw the new chocobo behaviour. I love it.
    Also, 5 visits to the stylist on one day has to be a new maximum..xD

    I had no plan on WHAT I wanted to finish, only how to do it (with friends first, randoms only after said friends go to sleep) and that worked out perfectly ^-^
    Only missing airship and story now, because our airship only returns today.

    Something I was really surprised by was that I could actually still forfeit on loot AFTER I had rolled on it before o.O
    Since when has that become possible? Anyway, a nice change!

    Verminion was truly disappointing for me. I'm not bad at it, I just feel that they could have made it so interesting and strategic, but now it's just a war of "throw 500 minions at your opponent and hope he faints from the sheer number" v-v
    I read the rule about skills only being available from 4 minions of the same type upwards, and knew it was going to be bad. I then played for the next 3 hours (tutorials, people, etc.) and saw that I was entirely right. I REALLY wish they'd change it so you have fewer minions on the field but every single one matters and is a strategic choice because of it's skillset, not just "max att/max def stats" and then throw them at something that is in disadvantage to them before the oppontent realizes...*deep sigh*

    I mostly sat in the Gold Saucer >_>

    Did a run of Diadem and Void Ark before bed though, got to say I really like them. Diadem is something I've wanted in this game for a loooooooooooong time, kicking myself for not sending Airships off on new Voyages before the update though, since it seems you need to find the Hard location with them first... Still, Diadem is well worth loosing out on Copperbell Mines (Extreme) and certainly makes up for a fairly small update.

    Spent a lot of time on Lord of Verminion though, really enjoyed that a lot, especially some of the challenges, love the nods to other content in there. The winner of this update though? Well, second place, being able to purchase specific amounts of Coke from Grand Companies at long last definitely comes first... Second place though? The Gold Saucer Challenge Log. Those rewards got me racing again, and I forgot how much I enjoyed Chocobo Racing (and disliked certain GATEs...). Hope they don't forget about it completely, it certainly needs some adjustments, and new maps wouldn't go amiss (I think the housing wards would make great circuits).

    Oh, gathered some Pearl Sprout and Coerthan Tea Seeds and am attempting to cross breed them as well. Must get Blood Pepper Seeds. Must make Ifrit minion. Did some random house tweaking as well, like having my retainers pose and enjoying the fact that my Chocobo is no longer a lifeless bastard.

    Then again, I'm probably not using it right... I have a light stuck in a partition that I want to remove (it's casting horrible shadows), but turning it off makes the room pitch black, despite several light sources... Maybe when they/if they increase the amount of furniture we can place I can just fix the issue with dozens of wall lights, but until then... Meh...

    Hope they change it so you can have different settings for different floors at some point too...

    Explored the Diadem twice, once with a mercenary group and once with a full FC run.
    We really need to upgrade our airship further is the conclusion we came to. We absolutely LOVED IT.
    First run was very chaotic and people left right after we finished. I hung around and harvested some nodes here and there.
    The Second run was much more organized and a lot more relaxed, got way more done and we definitely want to run it more often.

    Also did Arboretoreum with the FC. Was lots of fun too, lots of chaos trying to figure out the mechanics. Didn't wipe though so we did good I think

    Did some lords of verminion and liked that too, gonna need way more practice though!

    Tonight our FC and one of our ally FC's are gonna do a full alliance run of Void Ark. Can't wait!
