Maybe I shouldve posted in those forums seeing that SE visits regularly now. But SE needs to understand that alot of people who play this game do not read these forums, and alot of people who read these forums do not post in them.
    I'm curious....just how does one get left behind if they don't visit the new continent?

    Level to 99 in pre-Abyssea areas....check
    Aquire Powerful abyssea gear solo at 99....check.
    Complete Empyrean weapons either solo or with LS/FriendsList contacts....check.
    CoP content level cap restrictions lifted....WotG/TAU (most all older content) soloable/low-man content now....check.

    Sooooo...all you are denied without having access to the new zone, is the new zone and items that can only be obtained by completing content in that new zone (if it can be bought/traded, it can be acquired without completing said content).

    So again.....just how does one get "left behind"?

    That is not getting left behind in any way shape or form. Being left behind implies you are rejected, discarded, left to rot and fend for yourself...you've become a modern day pariah because you don't have access to one island on the map.

    All you've done is mostly make a list of new items, which as I stated earlier, if it is gear that can be bought/traded--you can still acquire them without stepping foot on the island.

    New jobs....I've got 4 jobs stuck at 0, and never intend to unlock them. It hasn't caused me to be left out of any content because I don't have them available.

    Events/Logistics...I don't do NNI, only hit floor 100 on NI this past year, still have a ton of assaults to do---doesn't mean I get rejected because I haven't completed that content. I have leaders in my LS that have yet to finish some of older content--haven't even finished WotG. None of that has caused them to get "left behind". I have friends that never even started Crafting or Synergy in the current scope of content, and it hasn't held them back.

    People get very far in this ggame with never even gaining access to Khazaam. So, again.....how does it cause one to be spurned from the game if they don't have access to one island?
