I miss the good old days when people would level up on worms in The maze.. Still one of my favorite zones to go in.

Moon or bust. Mobs that hasted themselves and enfeebled your party who also had AoE TP moves and native MDB traits? Aw yeah.

I was surprised when I took a party to the Yuhtunga Jungle Outpost to level up on goblins, and they had no idea that the goblins there produced such great exp. That's one of my most favorite camp spots when I leveled a lot of my jobs 27-30 back in the early years, and they thought it was only good for FoV Opo-opo bashing.

Is exp in the old camps better since update? I miss bird camps and citedel camps :/

In Yuhtunga, starting the level sync at 27 with bomb dropping and Barfira, I was looking at 300-600 xp per kill. Wasn't keeping track of per hour. But the party was still too low to leech, and they stuck around. So it must've been impressive enough.

Couldn't tell ya about Garlaige Citadel. I partied there recently, but it was before the update.

Dunes XD XD XD...remember it was the breeding ground for n00bville. Death and destruction galore! And I was very fond of Maze of Shakhrami. I remember taking my very first character in there to 16 for the first time and hearing about sub jobs lol.

Solo Leech vs Bird camp On BST on the path headed to einherjar, I liked blowing stuff up in pso'ja too, The goblins pet, while I was on BLM. I did too many solo camps on SMN to remember lol.

As for favorite party camp Lufais meadows was fun.

I miss the robber crab camp in the boyahda tree where people pulled that NM

I do miss having to move camps after 5 levels because that alone gives you a feeling of accomplishment.

going to labyrinth of onzozo had a feeling of accomplishment since that area you normally do not go there before 60 when the game was new. It felt like a whole new area that makes you feel big just by having to level there.

thats one thing I hate abyssea/ ATU doing, new people do not see the exploring the different areas as you level.

I always thought Moon was a fun camp to pty in back in the day when I was still new at FFXI, although I spent majority of my time exping in Bibiki Bay way before ToAU came out.

Western Altepa. So much death...so much destruction and so...so hard to navigate. Also the velociraptors in kuftal tunnel and wiping to Guivre every few hours and cabs in cape terrigan. Hot damn, these places will never be camped again.

Heh, back in November-December '03, when I was just starting out, I got to 18 and got my subjob unlocked and leveled before I ever got a Dune PT. Back then, Buburimu was just as popular as the Dunes, and people from Sandy/Bastok would actually take the ship to level in Maze of Shakhrami (worms) until around 15ish, when they'd move to Buburimu fighting gobs and dhalmels. I liked that route a ton better than the Dunes. D:

A camp I liked that was less often used was Yuhtunga Jungle, around 30-33, at the entrance of the tunnel that leads into Sea Serpent's Grotto, fighting Sahagins and pugils. Another I liked was Uleguerand Range raptors around 60. Also Lufaise Meadows rocs (Abraxas), closing chains with rams. <3 That's where I got my first 75! Crabs (and as you got higher, pugils) in Cape Teriggan on the beach, at the entrance of the tunnel leading to Valley of Sorrows, was kinda fun too, for the mid-to-late 50s.

I also remember a time when people actually leveled on Steelshells! Like, actual exp PT, not leveling skills. XD Though I think it was more Processionaires (crawlers) with Steelshells mixed in, rather than purely Steelshells.

One of my favorites was the decorative weapons camp inside the main entrance to the Shrine of Ru'Avitau. 10-12k an hour back in '05-'06 was great

lvl 60 at Labirynth of Onzozo fighting against coeruls. Was uber challenging for my whm. Had to keep silence and paralyze off tank. Not my favorite camp but a very memorable one.

Bibiki bay!!! Birds, dhamels, gobs, and efts. Mostly just the birds and gobs though!! The tree was another for me. Imps in TaU areas. Onzozo was cool and killing the cats then seeing Ose pop was always fun lol. Depending on which job i was on and pt set up is what made them fun though. I loved magic bursting!!! I did it on BLM SMN and WHM lol. (always got bored on WHM so yea lol.)

also by the beach, one of the few places where you can nearly touch the ocean. please return this zone to us in any future updates.

BLM burns in the past was another one i wish people still did.

My fav spot was Altepa between 30 and 33 when ppl crawled for xp in Yoahtor or got killed in Garlaige cause they thought themselves too strong. The camps were almost always empty and xp rolled from beetles and dhalmels

annewandering
03-17-2011, 01:42 AM
I sure liked korroluka tunnel. One day I decided to put a character on Lakshmi to level just to see if it was different. Well and they had unbroken record on besieged. I was totally shocked to find out that they did NOT exp in the tunnel at all. In fact I was told that only rmts leveled there. Instead they went to dunes and stayed there forever. It was very disappointing.

Uleguerand Range at 52-55 against Variable Hares/Uleguerand Tigers, King Ranperre's Tomb at 53-56 against Dire Bats/Armet Beetles, Pso'Xja at 57-60 against Dire Bats/Snow Lizards/Diremite Assaulters (though I remember fighting mainly Diremites, and only fighting bats to clear them away). Funny how a lot of my more liked areas fall into the 50-60 range... It's probably because I spent a lot of time figuring out how to climb up those levels on some jobs that were more difficult to attain parties for, so I was in a lot of parties for them.

There are a few others I really like, but they're not as "old". I also still try to camp at spots like these, whether it be with friends, or those who don't immediately throw up at the sight of a little variety, haha.

My favorite spot was Lower Delkfutt's Tower. Trio on Giants with PL fun times. Remember going there my first time activated my COP cs.

Komori
03-17-2011, 04:36 AM
Delkfutt's Tower, Yes! That, along with Dunes, the Jungles.

And I actually liked Ayweeda Subterrane parties on the crawlers and traps, they were soothing and nice.

Bibiki Bay Dhalmels. After so many levels of Crab Fantasy XI, it was nice to WS something that uses Berserk.

Ohhh, Aydeewa Subterrane is also one of my favourites. I know tons of people hate fighting crawlers considering slow/poison/etc., but I absolutely adored the surroundings and the fun that a few puktraps would entail.

03-17-2011, 05:33 AM
I find it hard to choose, but I guess one of my favorite spots was in Altepa, either in the desert doing beetles or in Quicksand Caves doing ants. I had some fun times there, particularly when leveling corsair and dancer.

I really loved the weapon camp in sauromugue (i can't spell this word even ._.;;;;;;;;;; ) around maybe 28ish? It was fast xp and pretty far out of the normal spots so it was usually open when I needed it. I think I also had a ton of fun on couerls in labyrinth of onzozo and I remember being so psyched for arrow burns in the meadow. I'll have to admit MNK burns were crazy fun too.

Let's see...

Antlion in Attowha
Lizards in the Den of Rancor
Beetles in Crawler's Nest (Caveberries!)
Beetles at Revelation Rock in the Desert
Bombs/Scorpions/Crawlers in Crawler's Nest
Torama in Labyrinth of Onzozo (Stupid Ose)

Valk and Quifm parties felt like a rite of passage, which is why I miss them. :(

Valk and Quifm parties felt like a rite of passage, which is why I miss them.

When I started playing FFXI, the order of camps usually went:
Valkurm > Qufim > Yuhtunga > Yhoator > Garliage > Crawlers > Altep > Back to Garliage > Wajoam > Bhafl > Aydeewa > (fuzzy) > Merit Camp.

That whole path seemed like a rite of passage on the way to your first 75.
Think I could be considered second generation FFXI :p

New generation has it too easy!

I really wish there was a way to make the waterfalls in The Boyadha Tree competitive again. I loved seeing all the new toys around 65 (Shark Bite, Dragon Kick, Wheeling Thrust etc.) for the first time since there was always 2 or 3 other parties sharing with you against the flies and crawlers. :(

Pulling mobs to the secret room was a nightmare. Getting there was fine. I remember once on Kujata, there was a DRK that pulled Knight Crawlers all the way to zone. (I wonder how he survived...) Needless to say, it killed everyone who attempted to enter the zone...and there were others that, upon realizing they were getting hit, would retrain all the mobs back to zone. I remember sneaking myself as soon as I went in, and came to my party. About 1 hour within partying in the sac room and looking up to see a waterfall of crawlers going back to their spawn points lol...

This brought a tear to my eye. This was the place I met 4 of my greatest friend in game back in 2002 or 2003 (whenever NA release was) and we still keep in touch outside of FFXI. Great place to level in the maze. Quicksand caves, Jungle, and the Tree were my favorite places to level back in the day. Great memories.

This was the same path (more or less) i remember back in early part of 2002-2004. This was the true right of passage getting to 75 and by the time you got to sky and in endgame LSs you sure knew how to do your job and knew all the mob classes elemental weaknesses and so on.

I would say a respect of elemental weakness, most of the time it was worthless unless the mob had a hard elemental def ( like ghosts take 1/2 damage max from ice spells)

what do you mean by more or less? did i miss some spots?

Cape terrigan in 04 was one of my favorites. Being packed into that tunnel by the beach with one or two other parties, and people going ballistic when they got too close and the other parties mob aoe'd. Before people whined, and cried so much they nerfed true aoe's on everything except a few HNM.

By far the best for me tho was Yhoater Jungle my 1st time thru. Was such an adventure to get there, and not many people knew the way back out lol. Blm's shouting for d2's home for 500gil. Met some awesome people at those camps!

It is there, I know there is lower levels for bibiki bay but I am not very well aware of them since I was in my 70s on 1 or 2 jobs around that time.

ill add KRT though, I knew i forgot a few.

there is a few bat parties one in krt one in the tunnels of casle sandy but I forget the level ranges, and was not very plopular.

yes you needed to banish ghosts since they are blunt resistant, most pts I was in would hold tp a bit when getting near one since that reistance could brake chain.

gogo Asuran first> raging first>dragon kick

as for Bostaunieux Oubliette, i have no idea, i remember going there to kill bats near the ron one way down zone

in KRT though I remember long ago freaking out seeing a 1.7k dragon kick with a 1.1k ish or so fragmentation, mob died in liek 2 seconds, oneshoted by that sc.

I remember Beetles in KRT. You'd camp on the stairs but since they would aggro, you'd eventually get one on the roof above the stairs that would aggro the puller every so often.

It was such a PITA to get a party to go there.

that is why i went nuts when blms use ice on ghosts.....

rambus starts casting flare before anyone casts thier spells ( no thunder IV yet)
blm 2 cast blizzard IV
blm 3 casts blizzaga III
blm 4 casts fire IV
rambus casts flare

rambus dies.

oh yeah the days of actally burning there *shudder*

actally i was more like 70 ish for those...

...BLMs casted...WHAT...on ghosts?! OMGNOOBFAIL!!!!


Moon, or Moon Gate, is located in the northernmost ring of Ro'Maeve. There are two access portals, one at L-8 and one at D-8. The enemies behind these gates are of the highest level in the area, making it a popular experience party location back in the day.

...I hated moon. With every fiber of my BEING I hated moon. Luckily by the time I was high enough to level on mobs around that level, there were better options of exping elsewhere...

It is awful to think it but back in the days lol when mobs did not depop are some of the most hilarious moments of the game for a lot of us. It might be fun to have some places like that now but I guess no one would go there unless there was a heck of a lot of incentive.

31-37 (Banishing Gate 1) (Camp) (Garlaige Citadel) Most people hate that place, but I had so many hours and days of fun there. I met tons of people there and many became rl friends and long term team mates.

I posted earlier in the thread about my waterfall of crawlers swarming back from zone of CN to their original spawn points. It was hilarity at its highest but I certainly don't miss the unnecessary deaths. lol.

I can not tell you how many people I mpk'd in panic. There used to be people who sat just inside the zones, I swear to laugh at us all. Well after I was done with them they didnt anymore I bet. lol and no it was never intentional.

Never tried em. I always avoided Chigoes like the plague because every time I encountered one, I ended up face planted in the grass.

I am seriously going to miss partying in Lufaise Meadows and Misareaux Coast.

Such a beautiful landscape, near-constant Lightning weather, and very nice exp. It used to be for only the few people who managed to finish COP up to mission 4, which at the time were very few because of the level cap and difficulty, but now not only does almost everyone have access, but no one parties there anymore.

One of my personal fav's was back in 2004 when I hit 55 as a Ranger. The party was in King Ranperre's Tomb, on Beetles in bats. At the time Ranger's pretty much ran XI in terms of DD's, so at the time the damage was absurd. That camp ended up becoming one of my fav camps in the game.

Some of my other fav camps over the years were:

-King Ranperre's Tomb, Bats and Beetles
-Sky Ranger burns
-Cape Terrigan, crabs
-Valley of Sorrows, raptors
-Bibiki Bay, Dhalmel's and Gobs(Berserk was hilarious)
-The Boyahda Tree, Crawlers
-Ridill Burns in sky
-Gustav Tunnel, Bats, Gobs, Flys

For zone mpk lolz:
-Garlaige Citadel(Bat trains and instant death if you zoned in)
-Yhoater gob trains
-Peeps zoning into the dunes with their "Help I'm being chased by <t> at <pos>" macro.
