Trasure hunting!

Well the past few days have been a tad Boring on FFXI not many people online that are not waiting for the dissapointment we all call Besieged to start and swiftly end. So I decided to do what some have finished and get all 5 staging points.... my first attempt at the two hardest ones ended in oblivious failure due to my ineptness at following directions without a map.

So the next day I gear up...buy some Thief's tool, Silent oils...and listen to my wallet bitch at me for doing this. So I set out and begin my meandering towards the reef, the start began very well I met a JP person who asked me if I had a lamia fang key...I told him no, but my Mad Thief skills could get us through without a key anyways!

He seemed sceptical...

he insisted we fight for a key before we went but as I pressed forward without him.....he and his [b]STRIDER BOOTS![/b]*rich bastard* followed. As we reached the gate he continued to insist we fight a skeleton or a lamia but as I waited for someone who had /tell me to wait at the gate before opening it he just hovered around mobs waiting for me to engage hehe ^^. when all was said and done I left those two people in awe...I don't know whats so impressive about paying 5k to open a door...damn key prices!.

But once we got through me and the JP strolled over to the Illustri staging point where we found 2 mirrors on the way and promptly broke them. After saying goodbye to my friend and bodyguard, I pay 200 standing that I gained with my mirror to go back to the staging point to save me from burning more Tools and that long ship ride.

I arrive once more in the reef, groaning at the fact the next staging point was still fairly far away and another key door blocks my way yet I press onwards. Sence I have never been one for directions I tend to see doors and paths and wonder whats at the end of them.....curiosity killed the cat...well guess I'm lucky cat doesnt run in my blood.

I gathered a few screenshots of mobs in the area.
A face even a mother couldn't love!
Shades...there everywhere >.>

So cute....I think.


After much exploring and killing yet another mirror and seing another one on the way! I reach the staging point. and now have 5/5 staging areas ^^.
