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

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

I only use bad things when I'm being naughty...

Why don't we make a mob to kill that takes the character's level from 1 to fully merited 99 while we're at it? Shame no one wants to work at their characters anymore. Rawr.

If you had read the entire thread you would have seen that has already been suggested.

Just because we don't want exp to be a horrific experience like it was, does not mean we want things handed to us.

FFXI always had one of the worst exp curves in MMO history, now that they've fixed that problem by making the acquisition (means getting, as I'm sure some of you don't know big words like that) of exp easier, we would like to keep it that way.

On topic, it's not that we want everything to just be given to us. What we want to spend time doing the things that are actually enjoyable in this game like fighting NMs and doing events instead of beating up Pink Birds for hours at a time before the boredom of it makes us go kill ourselves. I've done the grind to 75 repeatedly, it's not fun, and I don't want to be forced to do it that way when there is a much better alternative available.

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.

Oh please, a few less exp chests don't matter much.

A few less blue chests matter to pickups, since they kill so slow that a lot of the time they can barely get enough TEs to stay in.

On the other hand, for actual decent players, nah they don't matter.

You're right. My bad. I can solo significantly faster than most 18 man pickup alliances, so sometimes i forget just how bad they can be. Sorry about that.

[Loir]

well truthfully i was assuming a low man, duo, trio setup removing the pickup alliance aspect.

The chests you open (or are deprived of, in this case) matter plenty, especially for under leveled people who need to rely mostly on gold/ebon lights to get their base EXP rate up fast. Every ebon/gold light you miss is essentially 10~20 (or whatever the actual number may be, I have no idea) less EXP per mob you kill until you are getting capped EXP.
