Punishment or Advantage?

[Modoru]

Well, I can see where the person has a certain level of discomfort -- sure, many people can [and will] power through 1-99 in a matter of days, but for the newcomer who [by assumption] starts with no help, this is and probably continues to be a tasking disadvantage. I don't quite believe you should be getting a free pass to abyssea to 'get you started off', but I do believe you could use help. While I'm not precisely going to give you some directly, I can only suggest you try and find people to assist you in obtaining abyssites for more time per stone, better cruor enhancements, and stone renewal reduction [or, time to obtain a stone]. Starting off with those will dramatically increase your chances of bettering yourself in this realm. As for Voidwatch... well, you got me there, but I'm sure all the shiny cruor you'll make farming those abyssites will help you!

I've started the game 5 months ago, I used feel punished for starting "late" because the lack of Traverser Stone and the lack of the Voidstones aswell.

"Thanks Square Enix for the 90 Voidstone/Traverser Stone per month." /thanksforpunishme.

Hm, I do Abyssea on a daily basis, for hours, and I spend maybe 1~2 stones a week. Only need to spend them if we don't have time to make time. Maybe you should learn to be a better player and use the system rather than complain about a simple problem with a simple solution.

I've spent 5mil gil in a day doing VWNM... w/o any reward.

More gil than I have. Can't be too bad off.

I'm not talking that abyssea is hard or something or you can't farm time, some people join the game to try make new friends, not everyone have friends to farm time for them, or like to join linkshells for the lack of stones.

Any job can cap out time. It requires the right abyssites and strong enough atmas to carry you through. BLM, SCH, and BLU are able to obtain high enough azure the fastest, but other jobs can build Azure through red chests if they build up their ruby and pearlescent some.

Edit: Okay, I guess I put my foot in my mouth a bit when I posted this. Upon talking about this further with my linkshell, it appears building azure is difficult via red chests. I've always found amber and pearl very easy to farm solo as BLM and assumed Azure would be the same. In any event, I apologize for the incorrect assumption that all jobs rock Abyssea like BLM.

I want to know where he got the 5m.

[Chuk]

I want to know where he got the 5m.

I agree on that one.

Also isn't it fair that older player have the resources to do the events without much difficulty because we have been playing longer? I would be upset if newer players didnt have to put effoet into things that i had to put effort into.....

I think new players should really focus on the game as a whole and not just voidwatch and abyssea only. Sure you will get to level 99 very fast now, but they should take advantage of that by finishing all the missions, doing the map quests, scroll quests, subjobs, other jobs, crafting etc.... This game is not just abyssea and voidwatch, every single day whenever you log, you can do MANY OTHER THINGS beside those two things. But it seems people are stuck in a rut and do not even want to do anything but, it is surprising to see many who have no idea that there are so many zones to explore and so many things to do beside abyssea.

You can go 1~99 in under a week if you have the time and help with LBs. You can get +1 BST gear in a week as well. Get Dyna access in another week or 2. By the end of month 1 you can be setup for Dyna. Everyday even with that BST you just made is at least 500k on a bad run. If you do it right you can make 1.5Mil but unlikely with only that gear, but you can build gear as you go since your goal is 5Mil & you have only 2 hours to make that .5~1.5Mil, the rest of your day can be spent on more gear. Then you can also work on your ToAU missions to get access to Salvage, once you get that you can run it as well, that should add up to another 500k~1Mil or more, your able to make that 5 Mil in only 2~3 days after all of that if you do it right and have good runs. All of this would take about 2 months at most, the other 3 you just stock up more and more money.

Ah, ha! You figured it out. No wonder he doesn't have time to do a few simple quests and kill a few mobs for time-extending and stone-replenishing abyssites. Problem solved.
