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

When you do a fixed, you're suppoed to edit the quote. lol

Thinking like this makes people think THF/WHM is a good combination.

God forbid someone tell you how to play, because if they don't they probably play like you.

There is a difference between taking offense and thinking someone is talking out of their ass. If the Devs didn't advocate it I'm sure it would have been gone before the second Xpack.

so what you are saying is that SE, even tho they have an escalating scale for xp required to get a higher level, actually want people to just walk around and open chests for 60 levels? so then why dont they just make it so there is no xp loss anywhere, and its only 1k per level post lvl 5? that would solve the time sink problem. and with no xp loss, no need to get those buffers back.
what im saying is that its a loophole, and im sure they didnt see flocks of people running in there at level 30 with an alliance to level. they have released content and then the players used it different than it was intended. im sure that since abyssea has been out, and thanks to these forums, they now have a better idea of how people play and xp and will hopefully adjust accordingly.

I "leech" XP in Abyssea off my LS mates, because my static and I were only level 61 when we returned to the game. Abyssea drew us back in because when we quit, the whole LS were High Levels constantly doing Dynamis or other random High Level junk that left us behind; there was never anything to do except hang out with my static getting crap XP and watching the whole LS pass us by. We quit out of boredom and frustration. Along came Abyssea which lets us chat with our freinds, and laugh while we open chests or get one-shotted for doing something dumb; socially Abyssea is allowing us to accomplish something in-game while having a good time AND learning from our peers the perks and responsibilities of being High Level. That said, I've never joined an XP party where we chatted outside of Abyssea; they were all essentially soulless grind-fests where everyone ignored each other except for chaining, constantly pulling, or popping abilities--there was no dialogue and I've never made a friendship through an XP party, though I've blacklisted an amazing quantity of "people". Raising the cap in Abyssea would once again seperate my static and I from our LS, leaving us to stand in low-level squalor while they have fun getting R/Ex weapons and cool gear. The player-base is shrinking, and Abyssea at least lets me hang out with my friends, seeing what they do, and learning from them how my own job(s) would/should be played. Put simply, raising the cap would drive us away once again.

Thank you very much for your post. It's refreshing to hear from the players whom these proposed changes would actually affect.

Thanks for sharing your story, Zath. Your situation is what a handful of us have been arguing for because we are also in the same situation.

[Tsukino_Kaji]

There is nothing more I can teach you my child. Go. Be free!

I would support PS2 a thousand times if this were true.

Getting to level 90 fast does indeed make people retards*

Some of you people need to get it through your heads retarded people are going to be retarded no matter how they level jobs. Even if a retard levels outside of abyssea, they're still going to be retarded.

Decent/good people are going to do decent/good at their jobs no matter how they level. Knowledgeable players are going to play their jobs relatively well regardless of whether they leeched in abyssea or not.
