Leaving FFXI…again.

whats really odd though, SE keeps adding these new things that take more time/effort and the rewards pale in comparison to abyssea gear. It's kinda broken system atm. Abyssea so easy and rewarding, its really hard to top.

voidwatch,new exp ways, augments on king/sky gear/adjustments to dynamis to make relics easier, are all content that is just not worth the effort compared to stuff u can get via abyssea. SE needs to accepts this and move along rather than trying to fix stuff that was broken by abyssea, because abyssea is too hard to top atm.

It's not just you.

Unfortunately, I'd have to wish you luck convincing the masses here of that.

Or maybe players can get a clue, bring Sneak/Invis, and remember to /Check monsters they don't recognize.

Agreed. SE has since moved or changed the location of these higher level mobs. I was able to assist with 2 af runs in dungeons (Fei'Yin and Garlaige Citadel) tonight with no problems, plus we got a Garlaige Coffer key for another. Coffer mobs confirmed to be downstairs and East through the tunnel to Wraith, bombs and Magic Jugs. Might be an area to the West as well, I didn't check. Put snk and invis up before dropping, TONS of VT mobs downstairs before you get to the little tunnel.

Also, IF you need to farm Lizard eggs for the THF af quest in Dangruf Wadi, the Steam Lizards have been relocated close to the Secret tunnel.

@ Greatguardian - Stop trollbaiting & being elitest.

This topic was about alot of things, mostly the high lvl mobs being in places people
don't appreciate. Stick to the topic, I agree with the concept here they don't belong
in low level areas. Move along now..

augments on king...

What is this? I have no idea what you're talking about.

You like that word, huh?

No. I'm so sorry people are used to being able to walk wherever the heck they want without mobs batting an eye, but this is nothing to complain about. Sneak and Invis are not hard. They are not expensive. They are not restrictive. Any job in the game can use them. Checking mobs you don't recognize is also plain not hard. It's a fundamental skill people really ought to have by now. Christ.

Next thing you know, people will complain about lacking fulltime Auto-Reraise.

@Kaji, you can augment Ebody and non-Sky Abjuration gear.

[Secondplanet]

i have to agree with most, these high level mobs in low level places isn't right at all, and for the some that have to drop invis to get the item the quest requires is now a race against time to open/check/etc. before you get 1/2shotted. They should have easily made the higher level mobs in a abyssea like area were you check a spacial rift and get sent to the same place just with different mobs.

No, no, no. WTF is this "king" term? I've never heard it.

[Greatguardian]

No, no, no. WTF is this "king" term? I've never heard it.

Serious question? Kings. Ground kings. Land kings. HQ HNMs. Nidhogg, Aspidochelone, and King Behemoth.

[Tsukino_Kaji]

No one calls them that where I come from. Just HQ on rare ocassions and the gear is all stated individualy.
