I�had a productive night yesterday, it was pretty cool.� Logged in and changed to BST/NIN�and headed out to Quicksand Caves to kill Centurio X-I for a Shamanapos;s Cloak and if I�was lucky, a Stonega II�scroll.� Iapos;m starting to miss out on more scrolls.� They will be gotten, but right now Iapos;m shying away from the costly -ga scrolls.� Iapos;ll have to get my Jeuno mule fame up to request the Sleepga II�scroll.�

I�went down there and started clearing the area of the four Antica, then waited around for the next round of spawns.� I�had my character turned around and wouldnapos;t you know it I�see in my log: apos;Centurio X-I starts casting Ice Spikesapos;.� Whoa� I�engage without a pet, and the first thing it does it start casting Flood on me.� I think Iapos;m good since I�have shadows when I realize I never actually cast :Ni.� I�managed to get it off it time, it probably would have resisted anyways, but better safe than sorry.� I�took it out with a couple Rampages, and opened the Treasure pool up as soon as it died to see a lone Dark Crystal.� Iapos;m like, apos;wtf, a lone dark crystal, not even a scroll of any kind?apos;.�

Iapos;m an idiot.� I was solo so it just auto-drops into my inventory as I�see a flood of text in my log.� The Dark Crystal was simply the last item.� No Stone scrolls, but I�did get my Shamanapos;s Cloak.� It looks stupid, but whatever.� I�might go back down there some other time to see if I get lucky on the scroll.�

After that, headed over to Onzozo to try for Mysticmaker for OniCitenapos;s Moldavite, but Eijul logged on and wanted to duo/trio Black Mage so OniCiten wanted to leave and do that instead.� Went back and changed jobs and got geared up and headed out to Bibiki Bay.� The xp wasnapos;t initially that great as we got used to the camp.� We started by pulling with a short spell like Drain and the other two Black Mages would use Ancient Magic.� There was a lot of heavy resists as we were level syncapos;d to Lv56.� Eventually as I�leveled and we syncapos;d to Lv57 it came much more easily.� Iapos;d start pulls with Burn to try to lower resists and Eijul and Oni would cast a Tier III�Stone or Water.� As the spells were being cast I would cast Stun and then follow up with my own Tier III, and either Eijul or Oni would Stun once the spell landed.� Using this method greatly saved mp and sped things up.� We ended up at about 7.0k/hr at the end.� I�got a little into Lv58 and we stopped there.

Iapos;m really liking Black Mage, though I wish Iapos;d have leveled it before ToAU.� It may help hone my lowman skills, but thereapos;s a couple drawbacks:
- No Magic Bursts >.>
- Macro Setup Fails Hard.� I have one macro set.� I�put the highest tier spell for each element there.� Couple sleep spells, Stun, Drain, Aspir, /heal.� No -gas in there.� >.>
- My gear needs an upgrade in some slots.� Eremite rings go >.> Thatapos;s just pure laziness.� Though, honestly, most my slots are very well equipped.� HQ Ice, Ltng. Earth.� I have HQ Earth hold over from Bard
- Must. Level. Red Mage.�Subjob.� ... #$@#.

Though OniCiten doesnapos;t like to admit it, I�think he enjoys Black Mage.� He keeps saying, apos;Iapos;m�meleeapos; - but he wants to level with us and he keeps buying up the scrolls and expensive stuff.
