Another night of Side Questing in FFXIV

Good morning everyone

Last night's stream of Final Fantasy XIV saw us close in on completing all of the Side Quests in areas related to Shadowbringers, and I was surprised at how many the Viis have in their village, which was something like 17. Yes they are not meant to be done in a binge session, but it becomes really noticeable when you're cross-crossing the entire area. I have one more area of side quests to do in the Shadowbringers expansion areas before moving on to the areas that were added in Endwalker... which will be tougher because the enemies in each area will target me because I will not have the level buffer to prevent it.

Also got my Carpentry Skill up to level 48, while getting knocking out the skill quests for levels 35, 40 and 45 done. Still a long ways from getting it to level 70 to unlock what I believe is a Tribal Quest route in one of the Shadowbringers areas involving the Dwarfs. 

Stream also had a very weird reset about 90 minutes in, for one millisecond something became unstable but I didn't notice until the chat pointed it out. We did get notificaiton of a Windows 10 Update download in the background as well... so I kind of suspect that may have been the cause. Not looking forward to seeing what this Update breaks this time in terms of my audio settings.

Twitch Clips

For the raid we dropped in on Kalenal over at twitch.tv/kalenal as they were also playing FInal Fantasy XIV!  

Work was alright yesterday, was able to back door my way into something to feel semi-productive

Did some off-stream Dragon Ball FighterZ achievement hunting picking up two in the process and there could of been three. The first achievement Casual Combatant basically involved waiting for online non-ranked matches, and banged out 10 last night. Just need to play another 10 for another achievement. With Hyperbolic Heavyweight, it was a 7 match arcade ladder... and I had S ranks in the first 5 matches and an A rank in the 6th... but then lost in the 7th match for a D rank, followed by a C rank in the rematch... which brought the overall score to an A.

Dragon Ball FighterZ Achievements

  • Casual Combatant: World Match - Play 10 Casual Matches.
  • Hyperbolic Heavyweight: Arcade - Complete the Hyperbolic Time Chamber Course.

Popped into Fallout 76 just to make sure I do the dailies for the Crater to star building that reputation. There is said to be a glitch of some sort with the ones turned into Roxy to help make that quick, but i'm not 100% sure if it was patched out or not. 

Have to remember to resume work on the short story commission based on Mia Yim's return to the WWE, I do have the opening done, just need to figure out the meat and potatoes for its action sequence.

Today's Fitness Boxing2 daily workout featured Uppercut Combo #2, Front-Back Step Combo and Defensive Combo #1 for 28 minutes.

I watched hockey before it was cool. They were basically swimming.

Song of the Day:Tequila by Dan + Shay

For tonight's stream the plan is to feature Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight, we'll probably do every song on easy, including all the DLC tracks. Should be a fun night.

So on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!

Overwatch 2 and other notes

We were joined by PandaSweet for many matches in Overwatch this evening, and I branched out a little playing as a wider variety of character...
