Grats Leas
That ruby brings back horrible memories…Looking back about 9 years or so, SMN was not the best job to try and take up to the 75 cap first.

But it’s a completely different era now. I suggest getting some avatars and giving smn a shot. Pretty fun job imo.

How many mobs did it take? I remember, shit, 7-8 years ago taking my 30 mnk and my buddies 24 pld out to one of the beaches and we pounded on leeches for like 3-4 hours. He got his drop after the first 30 mins, mine took much longer... It actually came down to us being so sleepy and then saying, "ok, 1 more then I'm quitting..." and then it dropped on the mob.

Good job on that ruby. A lot of people have trouble getting it. A couple years before you started, the Buburimu leech beaches were hugely popular for farming NPC'able blood. I remember lvl'n THF there and being asked to help several higher lvl players get their ruby. Made my 30'ish THF feel important. The weather can be a pain in the ass if you focus simply on tracking down the weather events. I just kept it on my character and before I knew it, I got the all the weather events just doing what I would have normally done in just adventuring.

SMN always looked like a cool job. Have fun with it.

We got to the Peninsula and I killed all 7 leeches there on SMN without anything dropping... not even a blood... so i warped back, changed to NIN/THF and returned to the area. Killed 2 leeches and the second one dropped the ruby.

So... 1/9

I told Lea how lucky she was. Back in the day it took me 2-300 leeches to see a ruby. I sat on the goddamn beach for hours.

Re: Post your Best/Latest Accomplishment

Not sure if you need light or dark…been a long ass time.
But here’s my suggestions

Light - …I forget…rare in qufim?
Dark – Xarc
Ice – Xarc/Glacier
Earth – Valk/Konshtat
Fire – Rare in Valk
Wind – La Thiene
Thunder - Pashmallow
Water – Pashmallow


Remember to rezone if weather pops while you’re already in the area
