New Fields of Valor

I see how this all would benefit players who are used playing a RPG game, but most people seem to forget that this is a multiplayer game and just soloing everything would by definition defeat the purpose of the game.

It's nice not to be dependant on other people all of the time, but if you prefer to solo this may not be the right game for you.

endgame still has you teaming up and not all of us have time or want to team up.

Many people use FoV when duoing and trioing. Personally, I've been using FoV for hours a day with two of my friends, and it is pretty darn nice.

I am however not sure how useful it would be to put FoV in dungeons. Dungeons are usually much more annoying to navigate, and getting to the pages on an wide and open field area takes enough time for me already .

I think you're missing the point a little bit. It's not about "preferring to solo this way" all the time. Sometimes I like to wind down a little bit and get away from all the idiots of Abyssea and the noise and bustle of Port Jeuno and just solo a little bit. My DRG has soloed most of the way to 39 and it has been incredibly blissful, healing even. Some people just love to solo and not have to deal with other players and I understand that it is an MMO, where you need other players' interactions to further yourself in the game, but sometimes it's nice to solo a bit. My BST would benefit from more FoV in other areas too.

Marianka,this game has evolved for the better. Now FFXI has a lot of options for players, you are no longer forced to party with others to complete everything or getting things done. And given the options, most people would rather get things done on their own terms and not having the complication of involving other people. Granted most endgame activities still involve alliance. Even then, a lot can be done with smaller number of people these days, which is a great options to have, and lessen the time sink and complication of having to gather 18 people.

I'm all for having Fov in all areas. I want them to put books in better position though or make the book like magian specs where u can call it up make your selection and smash away.

[Legomike]

choosing how many pages you want to do before going back to book would also be nice

Great idea lego or just keep that one page up till you deactivate it would be awesome didn't think of that. way better than my idea

[Zaknafein]

More Fov's in areas without them. Has my vote.

I like the idea of more FoV, stronger buffs in higher-leveled areas AND the book's page staying active until you return to the book to deactivate and grab another. Would make the game much nicer and even make areas outside of abyssea little appealing when you want a slower pace. But it wouldn't completely out-do abyssea for when your looking for a faster pace. I also think the idea that in normal areas, you can get EXP chests would be nice too.

I would definitely be more willing to head outside of abyssea to level then.
