Abyssea ruined FFXI ?

[SHARP-OAK]

i think aby messed up the game in a couple ways , the entry lvl is too low they shouldve made entry into aby at least 65 , 75 would even be better.then ppl would at least know the basics of the job 1. ppl who do smn burns to 30 then jump to aby to leech end up not knowing how to play the job just due to lack of experience. 2. becuz of the speed at which you lvl you dont get skill-ups , so you end up w/ a very gimp lvl 90 job, ppl who dont know what WS to use to get skillchain , why because they havent spent hours in pt in caedarva mire getting a chance to learn. I had 7 lvl 75's b4 aby only 2 of them are capped on skills now. I think aby is kool dont get me wrong, but these problems mentioned couldve been avoided to a great extent by just having a higher entry lvl.I was farming in sauromugue i see this mnk out there i know from his gear he was high lvl at any rate he was getting slaughtered i asked what was up w/ him dying so much he tells me his h2h was 62 i bust out laughing.Good 'ol aby i said.I do miss the long pt's in the mire getting to actually talk to ppl ,cuz in aby you constantly killing and just about all you see in chat is "temps in 10 " or "key item /random if you need" ...... Aby is kool as i said the NM's , the gear all sweet.

Just go to Castle Svhall Baileys for free Skill Ups on mobs that dont attack back. You should be able to take the skill up to 310 there, or whatever is equivalent to lvl 83. I believe there are 8 or 12 mobs of this type in the zone, and only 4 of them are able to be engaged without worries of being aggroed by something. So you can freely take any WS over 300 on a mob that doesnt even fight back.
