The greatest early waxing crescent session ever




I set a few new records on 7% Darksday Early Waxing Crescent in the wee hours of Monday morning



The 5th Dark Ore came on successful dig 100. The first 3 came in the first 10 stacks of greens. The ores came from digging in 2 different zones.

This is the first time I have ever pulled 2 in a row, and the first time I pulled 5 in a session. I have never seen more than 3 in a session until then.

lucky la thiene

I get home from work in time to dig at 19% waxing, so I went back to La Thiene (woodworking mule needs all the Chestnut Logs I could get to make HQ beetle jugs), and wind weather pops soon after. Not long after the digging starts, 2 more ores are pulled up.

2 earth ores


I was planning on digging on Windsday, but 25+ Wind Ores already on the AH made me change my digging plans. Since my Lightning Ore from the week before still hasn't sold (actually I haven't even listed it on the AH because there were 12 of those already up), I had to dig on Earthsday. 105k value and only 6 ores up on the AH, time to rake in some money. I got rewarded with 2 Earth Ores accordingly, which came on the 71st and 86th successful digs.

Labor Day success despite it being weekend to work


I pulled up 3 ores over the entire Labor Day weekend, because the timing came at when I could do it (despite the fact it was my weekend to work). 2 fire ores in Buburimu on Friday and a lightning ore in pashhow on Monday. It was well worth the lost sleep I suffered Friday morning and the lack of sleep I got on Monday afternoon.

I woke up in time to come away with 1 earth ore during the most recent early waxing crescent.

heating up

during most of february my chocobo was on a dry streak, then last friday it came away with an fire ore (it was 96th or 97th successful dig) at 10%. (No screenshot of this one, I forgot to turn on Fraps and I'm now using official windower.)

I didn't go to work monday night because of an ice storm, but early tuesday morning I was praying that the power would just stay on. It did, and I got myself 2 wind ores at 7% for my reward. The second wind ore came on my 100th successful dig.

I set my alarm clock today so I could dig at 21% waxing, which was lightningday, because lightning ores are going for much more than the other elemental ores. I got two before fatigue, so I made a major profit.
