digging time again

another early waxing crescent, another rental chocobo, zero ores dug by the time fatigue set in. the evil empire really nerfed chocobo digging to the point I get zero competition during early waxing crescent (before hand, there was hardcore competition and getting an ore was an accomplishment). On the good side, I did pull up 2 gold beastcoins, so at least I made an profit (also finding a bazaar that had ghysal greens for 40 gil a pop didn't hurt either). SE made digging too restrictive, and they need to loosen up a bit (how about increasing those stacks from 10 to maybe 20-30, because now it will take a year to gain a chocobo digging rank).

I know I should be digging every day but I haven't except for that certain moon phase. I got called back to work and have to report Tuesday. I didn't go meriting this week (opted to farm instead) because my brother just got home from his deployment with the navy. He was gone for 4 months.

I also retired my first chocobo today, but not before I breeded it to couple peeps. I concede the fact it will take couple generations of chocobos before you can really notice a difference. The two major stats you have to focus is endurance and discernment. So when you care, you have to take it on the longest walks that you can and have it either to basic care or listening to music every day for care plans. For feeds, I occasionally give it greens (to get it used to the taste of ghysal greens) and mainly give it carrots or cabbage.
