Summary: Night Markets, Treasure Hunt (1st timers) & new MCH glam.
━━━ Index ━━━
━━━ Mini Cacpot 123s ━━━
After Ling & Art left, I got two 123s for Mini Cacpot~
Time to sleep~
━━━ Night Market ━━━
Wulf invited me, Amaya, Kaede to visit the Night Markets that is opened in The Goblet during an event.
Arlen and Astar joined in some time after.
I didn't managed to get a pic because I left gpose thinking they'd still be in position to reposition...
But nope, Arlen and co suddenly running around and boxing each other x.x
Wulf managed to snap a good 1 though
Kaeda looks to be in cat paw pose, but is actually boxing lol.
And Amaya has a ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ face.
I did however managed to snap and edited a few other pics:
Boom goes Arlen~ Down onto the sofa of our FC home.
This was quite the adhoc improv photo... me staring off in the distance,
with half of my little popoto body snuggled under a cushion...
━━━ Treasure Hunt (1st timers) ━━━
It's the first time me and Gracia went for Treasure Portal.
First map we went for was Gracia's Dragonskin Map.
Enter The Aquapolis.
Starting from the entry point, with the evening daylight through the roof, we make our way to the 1st chamber.
Each chamber has 3 gates (North, East, West), and 2 closed doors (Northeast & Northwest).
Enemies comes out from the gates, and Gracia (being the map owner) has to decide which door we're going through; which is like 50-50.
Despite being the correct door, the game sometimes does this thing where it shuts the door and roars its sirens to increase anxiety levels;
making us anticipate "OH no, pls pls pls be the correct door"
and then plays a disco ball before revealing if the "Price is Right".
Being in a discord call with the other members made for 1 thrilling experience lol.
While we breeze through the chambers, we met another 2 enemy types;
Arges and Goblin Treasure Hunter (gold goblins in short lol)
Arges are like mini-bosses that drops from the ceiling (by God himself?)
and they AoE swing or spin w/o floor indicators;
so gotta watch out for charging animations.
The golden goblins will evade players for a while before escaping.
Killing them drops a chest of materia (deeper the chambers, better the quality)
We reached the final chamber...
Counting up each chamber filled with anticipation, each more desperate than the last.
The first 3 chambers were ok-tier, whereas the 4th to 7th rewards are better (supposedly).
Wulf and Amaya were explaining how lucky that we are to be smoothly sailing though the chambers;
usually they get ejected midway, or even at the 1st chamber.
The final chamber nears, and its door shuts on us.
The rainbow disco shines... And...
We Reached The End on Our First Try!~
Gracia's luck @ @
From gposing, we learn that the Joy emotes for both Female and Male are different;
Female's stretches to their left, and Male's to their right.
And 1 outstanding Arlen... smh broken symmetry...
We were happy from the get go, the rest of the maps were extras 🤣
Some travel pictures taken by me and Eel:
(Also on the topic of travel,
thanks to all the Chauffeurs providing free transports across Eorzea!
Event wouldn't have been possible w/o them)
Treasure Hunt Session End Photos:
I tried to take a good 1... Lessons to learn~
- Missing lighting; not enough visibility visible.
- People didn't stand in an organized enough order.
- Poses were too hard to work with (ppl looking backwards etc).
- Stayed too committed, stubbornly trying to solve all that instead of
leaving gpose to get group to reposition before they leave
(also deterred by the experience from the Night Market gpose)
Man... I'm really reading deeply into this...
Gotten pretty unlucky with managing significantly large group gpose in this post.
Friends' pics:
Eel's is the embodiment of how chaotically positioned everyone was positioned for the gpose 🤣
I absolutely loved Wulfski's one. Didn't feel like posting mine after seeing Wulf's 🤣
━━━ Cashmere Hood ━━━
I handed a Cashmere Cloth over to Amaya because I hadn't attained mastery, materials or levels for it.
I requested for a Cashmere Hood, and Amaya crafted 1 for me.
I went ahead and glamoured for my MCH, along with the Hraesvelgr attire he gifted me. It's intended to be winter themed, since MCH came from Ishgard as well.
Some time after, I saw Kaede and Monty outside the FC house and we did a gpose.
I was telling Monty how his glam/pose reminded me of Hugh Jackman in
The Greatest Show (from The Greatest Showman)
[Live at The BRITS 2019]
Well... without the Koala on his head
And after Kaede left, Monty used a glam with the matching Cashmere Hood.
And we began to take a few more lol.
Monty's takes
Gotta say,
There's this nostalgic beauty in seeing something so simple and vanilla;
Like without much altering with shaders... its been a while since I've enjoyed this.
Especially the seemingly resized or crop oldskool 4:3-like ratio screen captures.
Gonna end on the favorite rainbow pic I took:
