Where I Currently Am(Dissidia): Finishing up the accomplishments and what not...

Stuff Did Today (FF X-2): Stopped by Gagazet. Kimahri was very sad that the Ronso youth had decided to go to war with the Guado... we told him we'd try and stop them, but first he gave us the Trainer dressphere! Hooray! We followed the Ronso up the mountain, since the teleporters were out. At the top, we ran into Garik, and we made a deal... I kick his ass, he doesn't fight the Guado!

Next we headed to Bikanel and started to find those lost cactuars... after finding them we had to try and shoot them alot. Generally, they sprayed me to death with needles... we found the first 6 out of 10. The seventh isn't ready to be found yet.

Finally, we travelled the world spreading the word of Open Air and the Argent Incs heir. Unfortunately, because I didn't do this as I was questing along... 2 people weren't available for pitching to... so I had to drop some coin at Sky Slots to make up the remaining points. Then I finally got tired of doing the work of Open Air and decided to switch to working for Argent Inc...

Stuff Did Today(Dissidia): Did some AP grinding for Gabranth.... then tried to see if I could do a Command Setup that would get us the dodger achievement... that didn't work... so I started the long work of getting 5000 dodges... blech.... Later on, I decided to take a break and start trying to get another set of Heike's equipment... eventually I got a sword... two of them in fact... and then I decided to take another route that would probably be slightly quicker in the long run.

Status & Notes: 

Back to work on FF X-2 today.... I decided I'm really not going to worry about getting all the Blue Bullet skills on my first runthrough... I will eventually, as I've done all Blue Magic in all my other games so far... but, it is so not necessary for the game that its something I'd rather do as a "postgame grind" kind of deal.

To expand on what I said before... there are 2 people in the PR mission who are not available after you complete the Chapter 3 mission for their area... that would be Keepa in Besaid, and the kid who stands by the gate to Mushroom Rock in Mi'ihen Highroad. I don't think that is going to mess me up at all as far as capping both companies... I've already capped Open air... I'll just double check my math for Argent Inc. before I finish Chapter 3.

In Dissidia, yeah, I'm going to have to manually do the dodges... its just grindy... I'm already almost 40% done... so it is quite doable. The next thing I'm going to do is to AP grind up Cloud and make the Pretty Princess set to get the 1.5x Drop rate stuff... then I'll just manipulate the day to get a special day with increased drop rate and then worry about getting the rest of the Heike set... once I do that I'll craft the Genji set... which I'll use on Squall after AP grinding to do the Impenetrable Defense/Rejuvenation/Bravery achievements... quite the snowballing effect.

Not quite sure what I'm going to get done today, we'll see... oh I won't have the FF X-2 Current setup up until tonight or tomorrow... wasn't able to get it written up this morning.
