Really, you're wanting to get into an epeen waving contest? I guarantee that you'd lose. I've certainly done way more in this game than you.
How about this, do you know what fSTR is? What about pDIF? What are V and M values, and what type of damage do they even relate to?
What does PDT cap at?
What about MDT?
What's the Haste cap for gear? What's the overall delay reduction cap?
No, sorry, you're not elite, you're just a crybaby of a man who thinks their owed something because they've played the game for a while and beaten storyline battles (protip; they're not hard) and thinks Dynamis is super awesome.
And about "beating" FFXI, I hear that in other games you can beat them without actually doing the hard stuff. Ya know like Emerald/Ruby weapon in VII, Ozma in IX, Via Purifico in X (or X-2, I don't remember), Shinryu and Omega in V. Beating a game doesn't make you good, or elite, espeically in this case, since almost everything else that is, or has ever been, considered endgame is much harder.
You need to stop bitching about everything that comes around.
It's funny because you think I started FFXI endgame with Abyssea. I've personally been doing Endgame for years, and am a sackholder in one of the most successful NA shells on my server. I handled the strategy and implementation of one of the first under-18 Odin fights on all servers (ages ago back when Odin was a big deal and whatnot). If you think completing storylines and getting a Rajas ring has anything to do with FFXI endgame, well that just about cinches it. I'm not calling you a total noob. But you're definitely no elite, and claiming to be one without even experiencing level 90 content is just hilarious.
All the other stuff is just old content being upgraded. Mythics relics and empyreans can all be completed alot quicker than when they where first released. Bring in something new that will have the difficulty of when relics and mythics where first released for 99. I want to look at someones weapon and think OMG wish I could get one of them that feeling is not there anymore.
Yes I haven't got any of the other 3 but I know if I wanted to I could with the current state of the game. (Only thing stopping me is risking a divorce from the mrs I cant put in the gametime)

Not to nitpick, but Mythics, while not as hard as they used to be, are still just as time consuming. If you haven't already accrued enough Therion Ichor and Nyzul Points I recall calculations putting it at around a year and a half or so of doing said events whenever possible. Not to mention that you have to redo each of the 50 Assaults, which while not hard, is limited by your tags and the three person minimum, and also interferes with your Nyzul runs, since they use the tag system too. Then there's the 30k Alexandrite, which is in low supply due to (hardly) nobody doing Salvage any more. Beastmen bosses and ZNMs, however, are certainly easier.
Easy, sure, but not quick or painless by any means.
Quite a bummer to me, since I decided I want a Death Penalty. >.>
i'm what you call "old school elite" now if you want to brag about how you beat some super hard VNM abyssea mobs then by all means do so.....elsewhere. because i don't really care what abyssea is about. now if you say you've kicked Sky's (when the cap was 75) ass then ya..that's some bragging rights in my eyes or even sea for that matter. but if you brag how you "just beat the hardest mob in abyssea ever" i'll look at you and go"so?"
Since when is Odin's Chamber inside Abyssea? Sky has always been easy. I've been doing, and eventually dominating it since before Despot was changed. Sea is also easy as hell, just time consuming and the drop rates are horrendous. If being "Good" in your eyes means "Killing Kirin in under 2 hours kited" then you're not elite, or even old school elite.
No offense, but everything you've posted tells me you're not "elite."i'm what you call "old school elite"
"old school," maybe. Not elite, though. Not if you think dynamis is hard.
