Final Fantasy XI

[J1M]

I still need a key from Garlaige and to kill Miser Murphy for a hat.

[Kalarion]

I need a Garlaige key as well.

Could thief's tools be used to complete this quest? https://horizonffxi.wiki/Sorcery_of_the_North

Or would there be something like extremely low success rate or needing THF as main job that would prevent that?

Yes, thief's tools would solve it. However the latter is correct; only THF main can use thief's tools or living keys.

So I could use a skeleton key?

EDIT: No, it's a THF thing.

Progress update:
-Level 60 (level 59)
-Defeat the shadow lord (prereqs complete)
-Collect RDM AF gear
-Sightsee the exotic zones I haven't been to yet

[J1M]

Every night we go hunting treasure in those high level dungeons I come home with 5% XP towards 60. Has been a nice change of pace and a different type of challenge collecting those items.

Turns out you can finish an MMO if you pretend it doesn't have expansions and patches.

A lot of MMOs 'end' with expansions/patches. They keep going, but that was the intended end.
EQ ended with Planes of Power(the story cannot continue after PoP, it's why EQ2 exists), WoW ended with WotLK, etc.,

Sorry I missed it, guys. I saw @J1M's post yesterday but forgot and slept in.

We have two level 75 Summoners with us.

Climactic... I'm glad you guys completed it even without me. Congrats.

WELL?!

[Val the Moofia Boss]

I would be glad to help catch you up Shilly.

[J1M]

I would be glad to help catch you up Shilly.

We've had people in our band of brothers switch jobs, so consider it an opportunity to do that. Would be great to have another core person.

I just don't wanna be a boat anchor that ruins peoples fun but I miss this game a lot.

Right now, San D'Oria has control of the outpost at Sky, so tonight the plan is to get through the next story battle and hopefully arrive at Sky and get that outpost teleport unlocked before Sandy possibly loses it on weekly reset on Sunday morning. After that we can do whatever.

Was a globe-spanning adventure. Even had to talk to a door twice in a row, thank-you classic Japanese game design.

I don't plan to be on tonight, but don't let that stop you from EXPing in the new zone.

One small mistake, a single Maple Table can hold all 10 of your pots. If you want to make use of the other table you bought, you can make a mule whose sole purpose is gardening and use it there (I made both of my mules for that purpose).

[J1M]

This has been a great adventure. I never thought I'd have a chance to experience "retail launch" of this game. Thank you @Kalarion, @Val the Moofia Boss, and @WhiteShark for making that possible.

I realized today that the best times in this game are likely behind us already and I don't expect to be on nearly as much anymore.
