title: i got ⋖Builder of the Realm⋗ on the cloud DC

![FFXIV character
Tiny Cactus «Lost»
⋖Builder of the Realm⋗
with all crafting and gathering classes at or above level 50](/assets/2023-11-26-tiny-cactus-cloudtest02-1.png)

i had hoped to get ⋖Honorary Academic⋗ but obviously that's not happening. also, it's basically impossible to finish the lv50 quests since they all require tier 3 combat materia which nobody has (i tried transmuting but it's very inefficient so i didn't get anything good). however, i did still level all the DoH/DoL through ARR in less than a week.

never do this.

if you aren't aware, FFXIV is testing a new cloud data center, and it opened last Monday and it gets deleted this Monday (i.e. tomorrow). they give you a boost to lv 80 for all the combat classes, but not for the crafters and gatherers, so i somehow convinced myself it'd be funny to get an achievement for leveling up my crafters and gatherers on a data center that dies soon.

i'm gonna miss Tiny Cactus🌸Cloudtest02.
