Define Irony
Irony is completing a post advising everyone to be safe on the roads during the snowstorm only moments before my power goes out for four hours and my internet access goes out for four beyond that. Oh, and the only road out from my apartment is covered in slush and ice and completely impassable. Things should be fine now, but yesterday was… not good.
In any event, after I finished work yesterday, I advanced some in FF12. Not advancing the plot just yet– I just landed in Giruvegan, which is about 2/3rds of the way through the plot– but leveling. I don’t seem to mind grinding out the levels, as I’ve found a good spot where a significant number of Malboro Overkings spawn; each one nets about 750-900xp per kill, plus a good chance at dropping a Malboro Fruit (worth 600 gil). A couple of trips through that area gets me a level on all six, which works out pretty well. I’ve also just finished outfitting my characters with the best armor and weapons available, and I’m working on boosting my magic resist. Bosses are not really my concern; the baddies between the bosses are what worry me.
