Winter Break part 2

So after realizing I had a grand total of 1.4M penya left from the alchemy event, I spent today trying to figure out how to earn some money. I didn't feel like getting Christmas Spirits from the Naughty or Nice event, so that was out. I considered grinding in Azria but it's kinda hard to get there when you don't have the money for a ticket.

Farming some Red Crystals for the Alchemy event.

Maybe I could start collecting again? I still had my collector+5, and the 30 minute batteries are pretty cheap.
I grabbed my collector from the bank, ran to the collecting zone and stopped and stared in amazement.
I'm not that dedicated. I'm lucky if my shop doesn't disconnect overnight. There's no way I'm doing that!

I decided I really wanted to test out my new Arek+9 and Arek+15. Skooma is a full strength BP, so the 31 dexterity made a big difference. What better way to test it out than through gianting? The Giant Carrierbomb continually gave me problems, so I obviously wanted him dead.
The cliffnotes: He fought, he raged, he died.

I killed him a few times and went to sell the loot in Darkon:

Gross.
and then promptly blinked to Flaris and sold all the loot.

Much better!
I had fun killing the giant. It was much easier than I remembered. I didn't have to worry about his rage.

It's always good to check the sales tax if you're going to unload your drops from grinding/gianting to the NPC.
Had I sold it in Darkon, I would have made roughly 260k less and I didn't even have a lot to sell!

Happy FlyFFing!


(Maintenance note: I've got to redo the background and title because of the seasonal change, so expect it up soon!)

  1. Get in now it's 5x exp.
    Also Ellium is tax free, but my guild has a shop so that is always tax free for me.
