#Blaugust2019 Day 10 -- Season 17, that's a spicy wrap!

And as they say in Little Einsteins . . . mission completion.

The Firebird thanks you all . . .

Dalia Falmea has completed her season's journey in Diablo III, earned the Firebird's Finery Set, and is looking absolutely fabulous!

It took several hours of play, but eventually I had checked off all the right boxes save for one.

I had defeated all the bosses, raced through several Nephilim Rifts, and jumped through several flaming hoops until all that was left was to teach my Jewelry Crafter 5 recipes. The only way to get these recipes seems to be finishing Adventure campaigns and gaining one of those fancy Horadric Caches that Tyreal gives you.

So Adventure campaigns I DID! After grinding those this morning I finally had my last jewelry crafting recipe and BAM . . .

. . . Dalia was wearing her best Firebird's Finery.

Is it me or does that last effect of the set feels a little . . . unimpressive but totally needed. If I was to go on and finish more seasonal achievements, I'd need to delve deeper into the higher difficulties and to do that you need all the extra damage you can get. But it doesn't feel . . . FUN. Like I would hope that a final effect on a set would make me actually turn into a firebird.

What if it did that? What if it made the Wizard's Archon form a firebird?  It could even behave the exact same as it does mechanically, but it just makes you look like a freaking firebird that breathes a beam of fire instead of a beam of energy. I would love that! It would make playing post-set completion so much more fun!

Anyway, I digress. I'm just happy to have completed the season's 4 chapters and collected the pet, portrait, and final gear in the set.  I think Falmea would be proud. :)

Happy Dueling!
