Raise the minimum allowable job level in Abyssea from 30 to 70+

[Nattack]

i had 75's before abyssea and i never gear swapped to each his own i know i will get flamed but im not gonna drag around 8 different sets of gear i swap staves but not much more than that. and if u say no gear swap you not getting full potential i can dual box better than some of you single

apply yourself, be useful in all areas, and not just one.

are there really THAT many people that still need to leech xp in Abyssea?

I had a group in Attowha last week. We had one party cleaving to keep TE flowing, one group popping in and out to get the TE's and reforming to farm NM's as needed, and another group for people that wanted to level subs, get merits, whatever. Our LS was basically in there for about 36 hours total. I was active in there for about 12 hours (one job from 61 to 90, one from 85-90, another from 85-88 and lots of skillups on various weapons for all 3 jobs, and took some afk time at #01 to sleep), and only saw what looked like maybe one other group in there on a /sea all. At one point...we were the ONLY 14 people in the entire zone.

However, the heroes zones stay packed. I would <assume> the cleaves and heavy AFK leeching should be done in the lower 6 zones, simply because they are easier targets and they are by design more appropriate for AFK leeching. I've gone into Thienne before and the only people in there were just there for NM's, namely Zone win or farming items to pop the Zone Boss and beyond.

The point I'm getting at...is it would seem the heavy AFK leeching should be done outside of where most the xp'ing is currently being done. Sure, Dominion groups may have leechers, but it's not somewhere you really want to be afk'ing. You want to keep running back to the Sergeant to get your free xp and/or seals every 5 kills. It would seem the groups with mass amounts of AFK leechers <should> be in the older Scars/Vision zones--if they can't fight/cure/buff/open chests...there really isn't anything to do but squat in pre-Heroes areas.

Rather than tinkering with the level requirements for access, what they REALLY need to do is provide an incentive for people to return to the earlier zones and get out of the way of everyone in the Heroes zones so it's more spread out.

EDIT: and btw, they've started locking some of these extra threads on this topic now...too many duplicate threads popping up with lots of Q Q I guess.

The more we talk to/about him, the more attention he gets, thus that obviously means that he will get his way. You realize that, at some point in time, most FFXI players knew who Starcade was too, right? Yeah, that didn't help him all too much.
