Magic Fencer Report – 魔法剣士物語

A Bit Listless…

It’s been a while since I posted here, but that’s because I’ve not been doing anything of import gameswise. In November I decided I needed to quit FFXI for a while. I logged in for a few minutes during the recent free login campaign to check something and haven’t been back since. I logged into ... Read More

Closing a Loop

Final Fantasy XILeave a Comment

I wrote this post 12 years and a few months ago, where I’d basically that Almace was out of my reach. In those days, perhaps I was incorrect as Empyreans were still in demand. They’re still in demand these days, at least some of them, and though crit hit weaponskills like Chant du Cygne have ... Read More

Murgleis Complete and Future Plans

Final Fantasy XILeave a Comment

I finished Murgleis and joined the glowy rapier club a few days ago. Huzzah! It’s my RDM’s permanent mainhand sword lockstyle and will get lots of good use. With that out of the way, it was time to start other things: I upgraded to HQ Turms hands and feet for RUN, and I started working ... Read More

Race Change and Murgleis Update

Final Fantasy XILeave a Comment

The eagle-eyed among you will notice my XI-Prof image in the sidebar says “Hum♀ F1A” yet most people who played FFXI with me from 2004 until today would remember I was in fact a Hume Male. Well, that changed last night: the promised race change feature was finally enabled in FFXI, and as soon as ... Read More

It’s been a while since I posted on here. It’s been a few months since I played any online games since I decided I didn’t really want to keep playing FFXIV. I got a bit fed up with the FC I was in, and I was a bit worried the game was too much for ... Read More

Midsummer’s Update

Final Fantasy XI, Final Fantasy XIV, PersonalLeave a Comment

Hi everyone! First off, I’ve moved across the US, so I’m now on Pacific Time. I’ve also been relegated to my personal laptop since the end of March because of moving, so I’ve been unable to play games as much as I was able to at the time of my last post. In the time ... Read More

Current Stuffs

Final Fantasy XI, Final Fantasy XIV, World of WarcraftLeave a Comment

As life goes, endings must always arrive. This also holds true for MMORPGs, though how permanent the ending is depends on the player. I’ve personally found FFXIV’s current expansion, Endwalker, to be a bit underwhelming, considering I went into it with every single quest completed. Maybe as someone with more free time than she cares ... Read More

A Sign of Life?

Final Fantasy XI, Final Fantasy XIV, Guild Wars 2, Personal, World of WarcraftLeave a Comment

Holy cow, it’s been ages since I wrote anything here. So so sorry! The last post I made was musings on the MMOs I’ve played for the last 20ish years, so let’s make a more modern update on that. First off, some IRL updates. About a year and a half after that post I changed ... Read More

Of Vana’diel, Eorzea, and Azeroth…

Final Fantasy XI, Final Fantasy XIV, World of WarcraftLeave a Comment

I’ve played a lot of MMOs over the years, some noteworthy, others not so much. Focusing on the noteworthy side, I’ve chosen to make the first post in nearly two years about what I consider the most noteworthy MMOs I have played: Final Fantasy XI, Final Fantasy XIV, and World of Warcraft. Why are these ... Read More

Final Fantasy XIVLeave a Comment

Oh boy, I’ve not posted in here in ages! Guess that means I’ve been keeping myself busy enough. Anyway, today is the big maintenance for FFXIV Patch 2.4, which adds a new class and associated job, the final leg of the Coil raids, a new type of token currency, and even more main storyline. How ... Read More
