Lower The Minimum Level Required To Enter Abyssea from 30-1

ITT: Leaches regardless of gear and playing skill are total scum and should be avoided at all cost

Yep makes perfect sense to me.

You need at least one person dedicated to opening chests otherwise you will start losing chests. Also, you don't want your DDs or healers doing this because they should be DDing and healing. Therefore the person who is opening the chests is not contributing anything but opening chests (which as I pointed out is important) so they may as well be on a low level job.

Not sure why you are even saying that, lets hope that was troll of you but
/item "Forbidden Key" <stnpc> takes care of that for anyone at any time opening chests during combat or not, healer or DD. And popping chests indiscriminately is really not hard or a bad thing.

Because not checking the chests first and wasting keys that can be used on things like I dunno, AF3 + brews etc. Instead of someone on a low-level job who can save keys while still getting them all opened is a better alternative?

[Loir]

You imply that crour is hard to come by

[Mojo]

Blindly opening any chest can be bad. If your primary concern is EXP, then you don't want to build up any Amber light. Opening Red Pyxides without checking them can lead to an accumulation of it. The end result is less frequent Blue Pyxides and Red Pyxides, which can affect your EXP rate noticeably.

Cruor is also an asset. No point in wasting it when you don't need to. You might have a lot of it, but some people save it for multibrewing Empyreon NMs which can save a great deal of time and effort. I was down to 12k cruor the other week. Shinryu is also pretty horrible when it comes to Helm/Mail drop rates, so you might want a lot of brews for that too, and other random things.

gunit ok. <stal> pretty much is a must for whm's but most dont even know about it. i love it and makes curing so much easier. <stal> pretty much goes to names on party or alliance. so doesnt matter if person change to evasion,tp or ws gear you can always cure them

Yeah I know how to use it.
I don't use it because I don't play any mage jobs.

[Loir]

In ideal situations you would be cleave/cata/w/e in low man setups so there is the downtime between pulls to be a little more selective to red chest use. I'll presume you are refering the emp NMs to the heroes zones which saving enough to brew through while still being overzealous with your chest opening is not a difficulty. Gone through masa but I will more than likely be in the same boat as yourself with crour loss with verth on dragua. Admittedly I use a brd|rdm mule toon to pop my chests so my own crour use is strictly for brews. So my situation would not be of the norm. Even with the mules chest spam it sits over 2 mil currently though.

I agree the entrance level should be 1 instead of 30. Leveling to 30 just to leech blows. If you leech a job to 90 and still don't know how to gear/play the job, just quit. Quit bitching, quit trying to make us see your repressed-minority point of view, and quit FFXI.

/ma cure5 (first 3 letters of player's name) if you're naughty and use bad things.

Don't be silly, no one around here would ever contemplate using being naughty and using bad things!
