This x 1,000. There is so much hate on here for players who are actually freaking good at the game. We must all have hordes of linkshell slaves to get everything for us and kiss our asses, or be the ass kissers ourselves. We must all be soulless jackasses who screw over others at every opportunity and have no real friends.

Screw that.

It only takes one good player to solo most level 85 Empyreans. My "Abyssea group" is 3 freaking people + 1 THF mule who sometimes plays, and we all have Empyreans and at least 1 full set of AF3+2 (our Taru friend didn't have a PC for like 4 months so he's way behind, and he still finished an Almace for his BLU a couple weeks ago). We have fun, we do shit for each other, and it's not freaking hard.

Contrary to popular belief, the actual FFXI Elite doesn't look up to the tards who run around with hordes of asskissing noobs to use to get Empyreans. Those guys are gutter trash, but the people they abuse are no better. Any FFXI Player worth half a shit can just walk into Abyssea with a couple friends and complete whatever the hell they want. If you suck ass at the game, or you don't have any friends who don't suck ass at the game, fix that first and then try again. No, that doesn't particularly mean "Make new friends". If your friends aren't complete self-righteous bungholes, they'll listen to solid advice and improve themselves willingly. If you're a self-righteous bunghole who refuses to improve, that's fine. But don't hate on the "Elite" when you're the only person holding yourself back.
