Makes me wish my computer coloring skills weren't poo. Drawing itself isn't the issue (though I'm far from perfect being mostly self-taught), but simple sketches just don't have the oomph of vibrant CG'd work.

Can you make one that has Garuda in the foreground, me way in the back, and a little caption that says "Real Summoner" on it?

Sounds like a good idea.. I know I might get flamed for saying this but... Isn't that was skill-up parties are for? And to be honest, its not that hard to skill up at all these days.

[kingfury]

No flame from me ^^ because what you say is true to an extent. The only issue is that even in skillup parties and the ease of current day skillups compared to what it was in the past based on improved individual skillup ratios, the process is still an enormous time sink that takes away from actually enjoying actual developed game content.

I say "to an extent" because it's not so "easy" for everyone to skill up these days even after all the improvements to the system. Also, not everyone has endless hours to invest each time they play FFXI, so the dynamic of "invest massive amounts of time skilling up or tough luck" punishes a large player base that genuinely wants to enjoy the game but can't due to the system mechanics.

That said, the Devs have made great strides towards easing the old way of things with new enhancements to skillups like new Grounds of Valor effects, a skillup ring, and new Food that enhances skillup rates for magic and combat skills. Should they bless us with a system akin to the one proposed with my OP(a full zone or system that not only offers enhanced skillup rates but helps to train players on aspects of their jobs), it would only compliment their most recent efforts to cater to as many players as possible in attempts to allow the player base more time to enjoy actual true game content.

Yay, thank you. =) Going to go tinker with my profile now. =D

I updated your sig by including your name in it Paksen, hope it's not too much of a bother.
