So i leeched my job to 90 in abyssea

If you think FFXIAH ranking somehow prevents that from being a horrible gearset I have bad news for you... and your server.

Maybe you would be so kind as to show us your character, if you are not too ashamed?

Not true. Your BST is definitely gimptastic, and the only reason you're ranked so high is due to all the jobs you've leveled. FFXIAH rank has absolutely no bearing on the quality of players.

FFXIAH ranking means absolutely nothing. It's flawed because it only takes registered users with their characters linked, into account. Meaning there's a lot of players out there that would rank higher than you, should they ever register. And being ranked high doesn't mean you're not gimp and good at FFXI.

And you can just look up Greatguardian, he isn't hiding his character. And he is far from gimp. Same goes for Raenryong.

I mentioned before, I grabbed gear that wasn't stored to go grab an NM and have had my character in Ifrit's Cauldron the past month or so, having barely logged on. I have full relic, some AF+1, and some Ferine for BST, but it isn't even my main, so go take your low-level reasoning elsewhere.

I hear ya, man. Full THF relic is the best gear I own. It's a shame I keep 4/5 of the set on the Porter Moogle.

And no, FFXIAH isn't perfect because it artificially lets Abyssea leeches go up in rank rather quickly. It also over-values relics and mythics. Outside of this, however, there is not much to go on, other than having a bunch of people try to have a p***ing contest in a forum, which is played out. Aside from that, I didn't get into gear comparisons except for that it irks some people that I got my Maat's cap back when it DID mean something. What can I say? Sour grapes?

Bottom line is that more 90's who leeched suck than 90's who earned heir levels. I don't see how this is not obvious, except when I consider my audience.

If I were going after something harder than Lindwurm I would have geared up better lol... Just figured I'd camp a dagger for my DNC.

Fixed that for you

Hey Neisan_Quetz, there's a lot more to being good at something than researching and asking questions. But then again, I am dealing with people who think all a 90 BRD needs to do to be good is double March.

That is an extraordinarily stupid comparison.
