This is my attempt to run something by so I hope people will like my idea. I like this and several of my friends think this would be a fun little thing to do together
I think this would be a great addition to FFXI and would help keep people entertained and busy. Specially those people that cant seem to level their lower level jobs. Or those of us that can't manage time to play in abyssea for long periods of time due to real life issues.
It is a new beastman conflict that can be started at rank 6 (where the beastmen are being lead by a new unknown leader)
What it is:
It would basically be surrounding a beastman military buildup in their strongholds of Ghelsba / Giddeus / Palborough to start with, they would be devided by 9-10 level intervals as a way to quickly level for some people outside abyssea but grant similar XP for every few mobs killed.
You would have to have these three zones complete to move on to Davoi, Castle O. and Beadeaux, which would be a higher level requirement.
Basically what you would have to do is fight up to the summit of each area, can be done solo or in a group and entry requirements would be similar to walk of echoes as in anyone can enter.
Rewards would be EXP, Gear, Gil OR special currency for gear from NPCs. Would devide by levels.
Level devision:
Devided by either 5 or 10 level intervals.
You can chose to enter the area at a level cap so friends can play and help each other out, or if solo you can have up to 2 or 3 NPCs help you(if you're a healer you may need a hand for example)
Drops:
Gear drops from mobs could be standard equipment for level ranges, or at higher levels could be items used to upgrade equipment in trial of the magians or even newer AF sets if planned to add for level 99, I don't know lol.
Experience Points:
To keep it competitive I think that you should get an XP bonus for every 5 enemies you kill or help kill in the zone, weather its cast an enhancing spell or cure someone, or directly attack an enemy. Maybe even just being there similar to Dominion and Fields of valor pages. Keep the xp competitive with other events and I think this will help relieve some of the congestion in other areas and lower camp loads a bit. Who knows if could be good if done right?
In Summary
I think it would be a fun event that people can enjoy and if done right I think it could be very successful, maybe even add NMs and give new buff types similar to atma but not as overpowering as atma is to keep things fun and balanced. A new way and direction for SE after abyssea is said and done.
Just my thought though I hope people like this idea. :o
