I'm an old player who is considering coming back for fun. I played FFXI from it's NA release on PC up until March of 2004. I have not touched the game since then. When I left I was a pretty solid 75 DRG on Lakshmi in the guild Fallen Angels.
Anyway, I just activated the 14 day free trial and I'm leveling up, attempting to get a feel for what the game is like now. I have been using the Field Manuals to my advantage (the regular solo ones).
I've completely forgotten most all FFXI terminology, and certainly don't know any new terms / areas / etc.. Other things I'd like to know are where & how to level up efficiently without having to take a huge chunk of my time. I wasn't fond of that back when. I have been reading up on some FFXI websites, but a lot of the information I'm finding is written to an audience who already knows the content of the info. I feel like I'm really behind the 8-ball here simply by perusing those sites.
If anyone could be kind enough to help me get started speedily on the right foot, I'd greatly appreciate it!
Bests.
