remember mobs outside of abby did get a exp increase. plus exp ring plus signet if in base world. plus add the fact fov and gov are on auto repeat so u can prob get the same amount of exp old school as u do in abby if u know good camps to kill fast. (and hey beats having a nm up ur bum or having to reget stones ever 3 hours)

You're kidding me right? If you've been to GoV and abby quite a bit, you can definitely tell you get allot more xp in abyssea than you do in GoV, even compared to doing leeches at Bostaunieux Oubliette. If it takes an hour to get to 200 xp per kill, then your party sucks balls. You know you can get up to 600ish xp max per kill in abyssea right? Tell me where you can get that amount of xp outside of abyssea at a fast rate. You should never have to re-time for xp parties in abyssea unless you have no-one getting azure lights or opening blue chests. And there are areas in abyssea to xp in where theres no nms such as the frogs at la theine or some of the various dom ops camps if you're so afraid of nms.

I'm probably being trolled right now, but if not, wow.

Don't feed the trolls.

this is what people fail to understand. now when i was duoing at lvl 30-40+ fighting T and VT was getting like 300-500+ exp chaining. with just 2 people. no ring. + pages at eastern altepa, garlaige etc. now if that was with a full pt on IT like the way people did before. would go much better and fast. also iam doing something there, fun exitement!

what kinda fun is there when iam 30 and just keying/leeching all day long to hit 99?. "hey good pt man was FUN lolleeching and watching you guys fighting. best pt ever"

Fighting IT mobs was never the best way to get exp, ever.

You can get 100k+/hr in a good GoV alliance, and an average abyssea party can do the same easily. You saw no difference, really? You're one of those people that thinks ruby light is bad, aren't you?

Edit: I know I said don't feed the trolls, but she's just sooo good at it.

Such as the one in vunkrel inlet where u look @ a few eco places. (and its repeatable) If they cap it @ 75, they would have to change the cap you get the abby cs from.

ever heard of capping azure and pearle?

I just based it off my own personal experince 2 years ago. And in no way saying that is exactly how it is for everyone. So please refraine the "troll" tag when someone share their personal experience. I saw no difference in worm parties and gov hunting in gusgen mines or crawlers nest. Never been to the sandy dungeon. Well... for gov. I'm actually an easy to please person, I don't put much stoke in exp/er as long as I have fun I can careless. But I can kill even matched for 300+ a kill in a decent time frame.
And no I'm not a "anti ruby light" Infact I don't care much in the light gathering Only when I solo'ed my feet hunts. But really lable a person a troll for giving thair personal experaince is a bit silly.


edit: yes i know you can get 600+ a kill in abby. This us after you hit max lights. Which is per character not party. So a new party member starts off with 0 lights. If that party has capped lights they gather lights less. So for a new party member it can take time to get that 600+ exp a kill.

yup but you guys, I guess do not understand what I was trying to get at. You need to build lights, which can take time based on when you join said party. More so if they have been capped a while. I've been in parties wjere I had to beg for azure for TE. I've been in parties where it was a good 2 hours before I got that 600+ a fight. Only then to have to leave to re up stones and start all over. Again this is just MY experience which I know isn't the same for everyone. Which is why I said " I saw no difference".

Tbh I much rather party up outside of abby so I'm not worrying about Light, TE, or stones. I much rather Kill mobs w/o concern and talk to the people who are in my group. And just have fun.

If all of your abyssea parties have been crap, then it's pretty easy to single out the common factor between them all.

it's still faster getting exp from chests than it is from 2k~3k page caps

I love the assumption you guys have.... here is my abby pt experience. I join a party that has been around 3+ hours full capped lights, no one listening to anyone, and 3/4th of the party afk. That is a typical abyssea party. At least from my experience. I in no way stated my parties sucked. That was you guys. All i said was i saw no difference.

In any case what I stated is fact, no matter when you join an abyssea party or a gov burn party. it still takes time to build up to reach the max cap of exp. Where as if you say take 6 ppl go to a camp spam kill IT you can get decent exp. W/o waiting for the build up. This is due to the simple fact that exp on mobs got raised 100% across the board.
EP- 90-120 exp a kill.
DC- 140+ exp a kill
EM- 200+ exp a kill
T- 220+ exp a kill
VT 300+
IT 420+

this is base exp no ring no chain. I was duoing with my friend today in valkurm dunes at lvl 16. just on dc-t we got from 202exp-540(chained) per mob. and in the first min got total of 956 exp. (equal 1 page for 500 in gusgen)

ran out of text room cuz i'm on my ps3 due to my brother laptop died thanks to my nephew.

so in short me and 1 other person killing 4 mobs in 60 secons got 956 exp. (well for me) that isn't a full page of mobs. with full page we got over 1K in mob exp + 475 for page complete. (took us about 3 min to complete a page + killing non page mobs for the heck of it)
so 5 min for 500 exp (roughly due to spawn rate)
or 60 seconds for 956 exp. >.>

Hmmmmm who to take at face value; the vast majority of the community (including myself) pooling their experiences and averaging, or the "personal experience" of someone who hasnt been in Abyssea in 2 years, doesnt gear swap, and openly hates Abyssea and everything it stands for?
I reject your standpoint as invalid.

Or you can just solo whichever Op/page in the heroes zones with 200~300 a kill (only growing) and an average of 3k per page. With mediocre to low gear and atma, you can rip through a mob every 30 seconds. I don't know why, but there's an overload of people doing the lower exp camps in [A], recently.

actually last time i was in abby was 6 mths ago just b4 i quit.. But your poor insults pretty much make your point invalid if you think about it. cuz what does gear swap have to do with anything... I've ben playing since 2004... i could careless about vitural life reputation. I am just here to play a game, have fun, meet people from all over the world. digital items, time it takes me to level up, or being over powered for sake of such is not something i care for.

I was just sharing something OF two years ago. instead of 6 mnths ago. If i do not see a difference then I don't because I'm not looking for it as I could care less. that is my personal opinion.

but may i ask what any of this has to do wuth the simple fact (the statement i made above my opinion) that SE can't raise cap entry on abyssea from the simple fact the cap is based on the story line... which incidently was over looked because people saw WHO posted. and wanted to pick apart their opinion to cause drama. WHICH is petty and not needed.

It doesnt sound like you are having much fun, and it also doesn't sound like you are playing the same game as the rest of us lol
Also, may I ask how it is possible to become overpowered in this game? Id really like to learn how to solo Providence Watcher

@ shadowsong

Get on topic or don't post >.> your just harrassing me at this point, I hope you realise that.
Oh and incidently, I am having fun :) I've always had fun in ffxi. only reason for the breaks was due to money, not the game. Only thing i dislike if anything is how the community turned out. Things went from playing as a team, planing before fights/ dungeons, and fun parties where ppl talked/ had fun/ got to know each other/ made friends. To over kill in harrassment to play style, what gear u had, zerging fights and dungeons w/o any plan wiping and crying for nerf. (funny legion videos btw XD u think 7+ years of fighting said hnm woulda taught ppl not to zerg them) and mass leeching. no one really plays as a team anymore from what I see. They just solo in a group on who can kill the mob the first.
But out side of seeing that. I'm having fun. But really if you dislike me and my opinion, then ignore it. No need to constently harrasse me over non issues which where not always the norm.
