Gobbiebag upgrade: /clap

Black Mage:55 White Mage:51 Warrior:51 Thief:55

Well I spent all of yesterday, without a shower, but I finally got into a party that took me past the level 55 mark. I had a very expensive Lightning Bow +1 and Republican Mantle waiting for me. This added a +5 DEX bonus on top of the other DEX stuff I had so I was very happy. This means I can quit THF for a while and just use him for farming. I wanted to get rid of some gear since I was so full of stuff in my Mog House. I have 4 characters' worth of gear so I decided to stick it out with THF till I am able to equip my gear and then sell my old stuff.

After the party disbanded, I was so happy in fact that I decided to buy up the stuff that would expand my Mog House. I bought the stuff and now am waiting for Moogle to get back. Evenmoreso, I decided to do the Gobbiebag quest and turn in those items. This will give me an extra 5 slots to use in my backpack. Well I make a list and check the Auction House in Bastok and write down the prices there. I warp to Jeuno and check the prices there but get a supply quest (in Bastok) to run to Elshimo Lowlands cuz I plan to check (edit: shb Kazham)Rabao AH for Windy prices. Well I go all the way to Rabao(shudb Kazham) and go out and plan to start whacking on some gobs cuz I love whacking on those gobs. It's like therapy. It also helps out parties there cuz I throw out a Protect 2 or Haste spell that helps them out for a little while. I clear out the threats and help out some people and warp to Jeuno after I do my supply quest, but wait, I forgot to check Windy prices. >.<

I buy up all the stuff for Gobbiebag 1 anyway and quit ckg AHs since I can see the prices of Jeuno and Bastok at least are comparable; but now I am out of money. Totally. I switch to WHM gear and start doin teleports. Well I only needed 20k, so I resolve to not stop doing teles till I get 20k for my second Gobbiebag. About 3 or 4 hours later, I think, I finally have enough. Not a lot of effort, but a lot of waiting. I slept well at least. I make less money but I would still rather farm monsters than do teles. I would even rather skill up my ranged attack skills.

Gobbiebag 3 cost? 255k. It's gonna be a while before I get that one done. At least I was able to open the quest.
