Update Time!

Made it through Davoi and found the Magicite (pretty easy) and managed to get the crest as well. I did end up cheating for the crest. I lucked out and another player was in the area and I sneaked in past the barrier without having to do the silly Orb quest. I was not so fortunate in Castle Ostraja. I can't say I like this place. It's big, easy to get lost in and has too many trapdoors. The highlight was finding my Chaos Armor, so I now only need the helmet for my DRK class. Unfortunately, I got impatient and YOLO my way to the ??? mark to get the Ostraja Crest and was promptly vaporized while trying to toggle to the right spot because I aggro like twenty of those bastards. I'll need to switch my Subjob to WHM potentially or get some items to be able to sneak past all the enemies here. Then try to track down their magicite. At least I have a better sense of the dungeons layout.

I called it a night there, so I'll attempt again next time, but I ma excited I got my armor piece. I look pretty cool with the head piece I currently wear. I am sad the game lacks really cool helmets. Largely because all of them insist on letting you see your avatars face, I prefer the Dark Souls approach where like 90% of the helmets will cover most of your face.
