Not to be blunt, but if you don't like playing with others, maybe MMOs aren't for you. :(

I love playing with others! Except that it is kind of hard to play with others when the outside world is mostly empty... which is why it is a good idea to make leveling outside Abyssea more attractive.

To be fair even if exp was greater outside of abyssea then in people would probably still chose to exp inside abyssea. None of the battle points outside of abyssea are anything near as useful as cruor.

Yeah agreed - which is why I think the OP is asking for more useful things to be added outside Abyssea.

I got a quick question. I keep seeing the term "Re-rolled'

Is that some horrible WoW/D&D Term or something of the like from some old MMO/Game that makes absolutely no sense to use in FFXI as when creating a new character absolutely nothing is rolled, and I'm just not Power-Nerd enough to know about it?

My lack of MMO experience pre-FFXI really seems to show, I feel like that guy who went to a star Trek Convention cause i like the series, Surrounded by Cosplayers who could probably recite the Klingon War song in Klingon.

it is a d&d term

also thats dumb D: it perpetuates the stereotype all MMO players are basement dwelling D&D Fanboys ;;

But Its okay :P. Its always good to go with something Familiar.

I only played DandD for a little while when I lived in a town of 14-16 thousand people (depending on how you counted people who lived within two hours of city centre) - it was something to do... besides drink and play XI (both of which I also did).

It's paying homage to the roots of all computer roleplaying games, and D&D is a lot of fun anyway, everyone should try it at least once!

I did try it once Actually, a friend brought the whole spread-sheet things. I have active imagination, But I like being able to touch and see things. But I'm not everyone :)

Making abyssea 65+ wouldn't in no way shape or form help low leveling 30+, it was all but dead before abyssea. There was the bump when SE told us they were going to up the level cap but that died when most of the player base hit 49. If they made it 65+ people would snm burn up any new jobs they wanted or more likely not bother to level a new job so effect doing nothing for people 30+ wanting to level the old way.
