What now?
vs. Widescreen
Anyways, we’re about done with Nyzul. We got Kain’s final head piece.
We just need some hands and possibly some legs, if anyone is still interested.
We’re probably going to do some Salvage now. Thats very exciting.
I like the widescreen photos but I hate the way linkpearl and name fonts are stretched out.
It doesnt do that when I do it normal screen. Maybe its the way I set it up in REGEDIT.
OK I lied. I had HALP.I still prefer the smaller screen though then the full widescreen 24″.
When you have to turn your head back and forth to play FFXI, its a pain.
LOL.
Pete is almost back.

PS: Don’t quit the game forever cause I’ll miss you. And I’ll be sad. And you’ll be sad.

A Crystalline Prophecy~ Spoiler Alert~ Cutscene/Screenshots
Since I really liked this intro cutscene I thought I would post some screenshots of how I interpreted it…
Its a really neat cutscene, except it doesnt explain much and its really long… Looks like the producers of LOST got in bed with the Square Enix programers…
The cutscene starts off as soon as you zone into Lower Jeuno.
All of sudden, theres this big ass light in the sky…. Its the crystal… remember the nameless crystal from the very very first FFXI cutscene? Well here it is again…
![]()
It appears bright as day in the middle of the sky for all to see.
And it doesnt take long before people notice it.

“Look! Its a bird.. No.. Its a plane…! No… its.. uh.. uh What the fuck is that?”
Even I take a moment out of my busy day to take a look at this oddity.

(Either me or the Galka is looking the wrong way…)
Across the lands, the bright light in the sky worries the leaders of the 3 major nations:
San d’Oria
The Elvaans do not lose their cool as they stare unsure into the sky.

(BTW that guy in the middle needs to update his armor… Its level 50 man)

Bastok
Ayame and Naji are not amused.

Windurst
Windurst seems to take the hardest hit of all…

For some reason the Star Sibyl herself freaks out so bad, she has an aneurysm and collapses to the floor.

And just like that… BOOM, the crystal in the sky explodes(implodes-whatever)

And all these tiny little crystal babies fall from the sky…

And people stand around with their arms open hoping(?) to catch them…

Voila~

We’re introduced to the latest new missions in the Square Enix vault.
Enter Creepy Mysterious Strange Boy~

^ who can teleport and stop time !

Stopped these 2 children right in their tracks !
But his stop time trick did not work on me and if there is a concrete reason why,
he’s not sharing. The only information this little booger tells me, is that I have been
chosen… AGAIN. and that I most likely will find out why if I choose to do what he says…

He introduces himself to me as Aldo…

And tells me that he will await me in Qufim.

Then he walks off and disappears into thin air… And everything goes back to normal.
So there you have it.
The 1st cutscene of A Crystalline Prophecy. Couple of Days late but here nonetheless.

PS: later I will talk about my fooling around with Composure on RDM and Esuna/Sacrifice/Afflatus:Misery and Solace/Cura and Auspice for WHM.
New gear Augments… In case you were wondering
Recently, like yesterday, a few people from my server got their gear augmented “to the max”…
They completed all , what is it, 10? missions to get the final 3 body pieces as rewards..
The Paladin body piece… I like it.
Here are some screenshots of the gear… I have the magey type one, the pld one, and the rng one…with augments
You can judge for yourself.




Other than those augments up top, the other augments that I have seen have been pretty lame…
like random negative stats. Kain got his sandorian gloves augmented. It gave him +1 INT and -1 CHR.. and I think the lamest augment has to be a Nomad’s Mantle with +1 WIND ….. >_________________>
Seiryu go!
Anyways, these are the only people I have seen so far that have completed the Crystalline Prophecy. I’m sure there are plenty more…
Let me know if you guys have found any interesting stats on your augmented gear !

Final Fantasy Update~ old news
Job Adjustments and Additions Part II (03/30/2009)
In this second half of the announcement on job adjustments and additions planned for the April version update, we present to you a delectable array of changes that are bound to change the way you buff and summon!
| Red Mage |
The new job ability “Composure” and a new line of En- type magic spells will be added.
- Composure
(Lv.50 Ability Delay: 5 min. Duration: 5 min.)
Increases accuracy and lengthens recast time.Enhancement
effects gained through white and black magic
you cast on yourself last longer.
- Notes
Activating Composure will impose a recast time penalty upon all magic, songs, and ninjutsu.
- En- Type Spells
Enfire II (Lv.58) / Enblizzard II (Lv.56) / Enaero II (Lv.54) / Enstone II (Lv.52) / Enthunder II (Lv.50) / Enwater II (Lv.60)
Adds elemental damage to your initial attacks
(subsequent blows by characters for whom multiple
attacks are possible do not receive this effect).
Each successive activation increases elemental
damage strength up to a predetermined limit. Reduces the target’s resistance against the associated element.
Example) Enfire II: Adds fire damage to your initial
attacks and reduces the target’s resistance against water.
| Summoner |
Changes are scheduled for the following Blood Pact abilities:
- The effective range for Blood Pact: Ward area of effect enhancing
and healing abilities will be increased and become equivalent to that of white magic spells such as “Protectra.”
- Blood Pact: Ward “Hastega“
The Blood Pact: Ward ability “Hastega” will be adjusted to nullify the effects of Slow in the same manner as the white magic “Haste.”
- Blood Pact: Rage
Meteor Strike / Geocrush / Wind Blade / Grand Fall / Heavenly Strike / Thunderstorm
Both damage and TP-based damage dealt by the above abilities will be increased.
