Utsusemi and Tonko

Yay! Last night I finally completed these quests! I bougth 120 zinc ores and gave them to that guy to build my fame, untill I had enough fame to receive the quests. This "fame" cost me about 30k. Then I went to Norg to complete them.

I must say, Utsusemi quest was a hell for me as I dont have a map of Sea Serpent Grotto. What was the most tricky part, was the using of silent oil. You have to wait untill silent oil completely wears off, so you'll have to go "hide" and find a place where you can re-use it without getting instantly killed. I switched job to lv 1, so dying didnt damage my exp. I had to use almost two stacks of sneak oil, because more I got frustrated, more I got lost; I guess I very much sucked doing these quests, but at least I did them finally. I had to use only one silent oil for Tonko: Ichi quest, though. Utsusemi took me few hours. x_X Screwed up few times.

When I had done these quests, I noticed that I had only 1k money, so I decided to sell Tonko: Ichi for 30k. I felt I really had to do it. Besides, Utsusemi's the one that seems necessary and I'm only gonna use nin as my sub after I've leveled it enough. Besides, I can barely afford powder for Utsusemi ( Shihei costs 5k - 6k/stack), so having to buy powder for Tonko would've been out of question. Sure, invisibility would give certain advances in things like pulling and when you need to get past mobs, but I felt I wouldn't need it.

Have you done these quests? Even non-ninjas can make them and I still think these are relatively easy quests to get about 130k worth of stuff, and they sell fast in AH. And there's other quests there as well.

Most of all, I feel happy that I can move on with my character now after about week of fishing.
