Is this Starcade?

For anyone else having trouble soloing in Aby, it is important to remember that "Abyssites" are very powerful - and they can be obtained solo via cruor-purchase, quests and by killing easy mobs. Most of us started Aby in 2010 by questing Abyssites to increase our survival chances in Aby at level 80 (lol), we did this before we even tried to get Atmas or ZB wins etc. in many cases.

For soloing, the most important Abyssites are "of merit" and "of furtherance." There are 9 of these in total, 2 can be purchased for cruor from the Cruor Prospector in "Heroes of Aby" zones.

Several of these can be obtained by easy solo quests - which are easy, but you will need to do other easy solo quests first to attain the Fame Rank required for the Abyssite reward quest.

Suggested reading is ffxiclopedia - " category : Abyssite " - and you should scroll down to the 6x "abyssites of merit" and 3x "abyssites of furtherance" part of the page.

Obtaining those 9 abyssites will add +60% HP and +30% MP in Aby, and add +30 to all your Attributes (STR VIT etc.). This makes soloing atmas and Zone Bosses much easier.

And you can solo all these Abyssites, if you spend the time to do the Abyssite quests and make basic solo strategies for the NM-dropped Abyssites. I suggest leaving the Xibalba and Warbler NM Abyssites until last - these are the hardest to solo, for a new player. The other Abyssites can be solo'd easily if you put the Work Ethic into it.

The bonuses from Abyssites are permanent and are activated when you buy the temporary "cruor enhancements" from any Cruor Prospector, you need to do this every time you zone into Aby.

:p

Starcade was banned from the forum (and a whole ton of FFXI-related sites, among others), but according to his blog, they are one of his friends in-game.

However, there is a possibility that they may look into this later, but they expect it will not be for quite some time.

I can’t give a specific time frame at the moment since we still need to run some tests, but we are in the midst of looking into making it possible to summon alter egos in Abyssea areas. We’ll keep you updated on the progress!

Well thats rather sweet Camate and betting it might be trusts attuned to be called forth in the abyssea settings or trusts specifically created for abby only and can only be called in that area after zoning-in? I'll wait to see it Camate, Later's ;)





Edit: The same with dyna area's per-haps as well??

That would be pretty cool. Even better if they can manage Dynamis (and other areas I'm probably not thinking about...Assault maybe?).
