Urianger in the Palaka top because why not.

Lvl 85 NIN, so Palaka time. Replaced the pants with Dreadwyrm, dyed Ink Blue; I'm just not fond of the kneepads on the Palaka pants, and tend to hide them with tall boots, but this substitute works well.

Cryptlurker weapons also dyed to match the natural dark blue of the top, which even when dyed retains a blue cuff on the upper left arm, and the upper left chest ends up a darker shade than the rest.

Wanderer's Necklace from Tataru is also a new Must in the wardrobe when available, and I like it hangs over the top collar here instead of getting hidden.

Y'know, I might keep this look beyond leveling as it's a good one and NIN is still by its lonesome...

Its a whole island park of giant frog hybrids. Based from the movie, InGen gathered every stock of amber worldwide and made dinosaurs from the the remnant DNAs inside of ancient mosquitoes trapped in amber. However, these DNA sequences still contains gaps, they intentionally want the dinosaurs to change sex and breed and adapt to the modern climate. To address these problems, InGen scientists spliced frog DNA in the mix.

Leveling White Mage. A couple more levels and Sage will be the only magic class left.

PSA to amphibian, reptile, insects and cetacean lovers! Animal conservation pageantry This is gonna be a downer compared to my other posts, but I've always been environmentalist at heart, I'm just caught up with surviving, so here's an environmental issue. So apparently, funding has been more allocated towards conservation of endangered "charismatic" animals, particularly Tigers, lions, lynxes and the likes, while other animals like whales, salamanders, amphibians and insects, gets the least funding. I get it, its easier to conserve land mammals than those you can barely see or in the ocean, and lots of geopolitics come in play because of territorial waters, stupid tradition hunting/whaling and pseudo medicines. I'm cutting this short, because geopolitics is another topic. So what can we do? I'm not rich nor capable of travelling to be able to participate in charities and environmental programs, so for now all I can do is raise awareness and trying to practice the 5 R's; Reduce, refuse, recycle, reuse and rot. Refuse the ridiculously overpriced generic housing that continuously encroaches forested and coastal areas, and reuse/buy properties in old villages/suburbs or towns, its a plus that you'll get more freedom in designing the façade of your dream home than those in Mcvillages. Reuse old furniture from garage sales and surplus, to slow down illegal logging; its more stylish and old furniture have more character and perfect accent for a minimalist lifestyle. Refuse/reduce online shopping; you know which country most of your belongings came from, the more you buy from them, the more you contribute to their economy, the more they hoard the oceans just outside territorial waters. Do anything to slow down deforestation. Do anything that could put a dent to consumerism. Doing so will somehow protect the habitats of most animals than just the charismatic ones. We shouldn't wait for frogs and other animals to end up in breeding/cloning programs.
