That's just an awful idea no way SE would have that.

10-26-2011 03:32 AM #12They should just go all-out and make a hardcore server where death is permanent--if you die it uninstalls FFXI and deletes your account*--weapons and armor break after a predetermined number of hits and all NMs only ever pop once. The level cap is 99 but only includes vanilla FFXI, none of this Zilart stuff for namby-pamby wimps. And if you're caught using 3rd-party tools of any kind (and I mean, if you're running Internet Explorer in the background here--no wiki help for you!), a Special Task Force Unit shows up at your house and burns your genitalia with a soldering iron.
*The original version had it format your hard drive as well, but the higher-ups would decide that you might have FFXIV on there, so it's not worth the risk!(5)Aliekber of Carbamesh

Im all for removing the ease of levelling, it's not enought that you can get 5k xp from one page at aby altepa,only 2 days ago someone was moaning at having to run back to the book to get a new ops page.I dont think you should be able to enter aby till 75 personally and they should halve the xp you get from book burns.

Wouldn't a classic server be more along the lines of rmt fish bots, rmt ah bots, rmt miners, rmt choco-diggers, rmt tried-and-failed-at-sky? If you're trying to bring back 'classic', I want Rabao back.
Oh, and SMN burn says hi.(3)

Quoted for truth.

If you want "classic" parties, beg some friends to level sync with you, let the rest of us enjoy our exp.(4)

10-26-2011 06:43 AM #18The only way to play classic stuff the old way is to die 100,000x till you delevel your mainjob to 75, than switch to merit points (Or just level a job to 75) and some how find people that actually do stuff outside of Abyssea and would like to play in this certain way.
Maybe there should be a hardcore server idk, but if you are serious about this than just setup a linkshell and maybe a website focused on this.(0)

No SMN burn because level sync didn't exist!
