FFXI - A reflection (preview)

So I finished up my final cutscene for Apocalypse Nigh this morning and started to feel a little nostalgic... Finishing up the last mission in the main storyline(s) made me realize how much I've actually done over the last, slightly less than two years.

- Finished the storylines for Zilart, CoP, AU... ironically, I still haven't finished a single nation storyline yet
- Finished one set of "endgame" armor - Denali
- Partial sets for many other pieces of armor, including:
* 4/5 on Enkidu's Harness set
* 4/5 on Goliard Saio set
* 4/6 on Etoile(DNC) Attire set
* 4/6 on Mirage(BLU) Attire set
* 3/5 on Homam Corazza set
* 2/6 on Argute(SCH) Attire set... and strangely have two of the -1 pieces ready for use
- Taken 3 jobs to 75, with a 4th coming up in the next couple of days
- Poked many optional BCs/mobs with appropriate rewards (AN and the fights leading to it being the most recent example, others would include Divine Might, etc.)
- Completed all 50(+1) Assaults, Captain rank
- Participated in many more events than I thought I would... Limbus, Dynamis, Salvage, Nyzul, Einherjar

... with lots more to come. I've already decided that I'm going to pick up an entry ticket for the "Heroine's Combat" fight with my single Rank 5 Mog Marble... just need to remember do pick it up, and to figure out a strategy for this level 60 no-subjob battle. WotG storylines need to be completed... assuming SE actually decides to release anything (actually, I don't remember there being any WotG concent updates for at least 6 months)

Here's to more FFXI before the rapture!

(PS: Big THANK YOU to those who helped in the AN fight... Rooks, Dade, DO, Styles and Mendhall! I never thought that I'd be able to reach this point before xD)
