Why not just let everyone start out at level 70-75 since no one wants to experience the fellowship, exploration, quests, and just satisfaction of gaining a level and being proud of it anymore?

moving on and ignoring the troll.......
That would cause many problems...one of which being the fact that whm and just about any support class would get 0 exp thus screwing them out of it. to bend a tad i would say as i have said before...incur a 85-90% exp penalty for those who are below 70. or just raise the cap to 70 period.Quote:

Read to post above you and was just opinion
you just opened yourself up for flaming...>.< i agree with you completely.....but the trolls are going to be on you like white on rice now. i myself miss these kind of thing. which is why i am trying to make sure SE sees these threads..so people WILL do that kind of thing again....:)
how is that ignoring the post?
also lol

Since when was being level 75 an accomplishment?
And I'm saying this having had multiple 75s since before most people here started playing.
@Krystal: So really you're just mad that you can't brag about meaningless crap any more? I'd have revoked your bragging rights for being 90 or beating Genkais whether Abyssea existed or not.
This is simple, you don't like leechers in abyssea?, or you dont like leveling in abyssea because its too easy? Then form up a group and go level in the old areas the old fashion way. Nobody is stopping you from doing so. I got 3 jobs to 75 old style. I'm not saying that I didn't like because I did, but I like the Abyssea way better. The majority loves Abyssea the way it is.
Hang in there Krystal. I know you speak the truth and from your heart. That's part of way you play the game. Like I said, two different game philosophies and we will have to agree to disagree on this. I'll play whatever comes down. I love the game and the people and will continue to help those that I can within the community.
I think Krystal wrote the Brady guide on FFXI and is finally releasing all the butthurt from realizing the book and her way of doing things are old fashioned and useless, leaving her behind to lfp for hours while mumbling under her breath about those damned lazy players.
The only logical explanation to me is that she liked the slow grind that was forming parties and exp chaining, and somehow believes there is a masochistic minority that agrees with her (and are too shy to publicly agree with her). The 'majority', like myself, find our fun in FFXI by doing other things like getting AF3, empyreans, and hitting/nuking/healing/supporting for massive numbers and taking down NM's.
If not, guess she just wants to watch the world burn...
SCH fight was annoying not hard (I know it was my first job to 75 on Zagen)
It doesn't compare to a Maat that just refuses to be slept or silenced during Chainspell with capped skill, and some of the best available gear borrowed or owned. Or Asuran Fists. But then again I did that fight years ago back when EXPing in Sky was the place to be lol
I haven't tried RDM maat yet since the implementation of composure, but I know origionally it was the hardest fight to do because if sleep didn't stick you died.. Looking forward to doing it again though..Quote:
no..i beat the scholar level 70 cap as my FIRST level cap. and that 70 cap is the hardest in the game for your first 70 cap quest. people can debate all they want that rdm is..but i disagree. having done the rdm cap myself on a previous character.
and i laugh my ass off at your pathetic attempts to flame me off the forums. if you think little insults are enough to piss me off to the point of leaving....
Highlight this>>>Keep posting.......XD<<<
moving on topic....something needs to be done about abyssea..case and point.
How is this going for 80+ pages? I didn't know gaining experience points was such a huge deal. I see getting a 90 job is a step towards a greater means. Maybe it's something they want to accomplish as a goal -- which can be one of many. I'm sure if it was one of many goals, they don't want to spend weeks of it accomplishing it. Maybe the goal of leveling a job to 90 can help their group of friends to kill more efficiently. I'm not here to list all the possible goals a person has, and I'm not sure why people would want to govern the method of how other players level their jobs. SE knows their player base has dropped -- evident from the first server merge -- soon to be two server merges. It's not because of Abyssea since the first merge was before its release. It's because people have met their goals, or they no longer find the game entertaining, or they have long decided to quit before the date and have decided to move on. SE released Abyssea's experience method for a reason. How you interpret it is yours. For me, I think they are prepping for the end of Vana. I've been playing for 8years and I'll stay until the end despite all my friends have quit 5years ago. I made new ones.
I'm incredibly relieved SE released Abyssea and its experience points method. I don't have the pressure of trying to get my jobs up to 90 to accomplish my goal of accumulating my AF3+2s. It's actually made the game fun. I have never once found the old method of exping as fun. I thought it was more of a hindrance. If it takes you 3weeks+ of getting your jobs from 30-75 to learn a job there's something incredibly wrong. I'm greatful SE has made a lot of the old content easier. Newer players would have a chance I never did.
I think it's about time this thread got locked tbh. it's served it's purpose. the only people posting now are just outright trying to flame people...which is immature. I myself admit to flaming a few but only in retort.
I agree that it should be locked.
A low level abyssea would be cool. One specifically designed for lvl 10-30.
