FFXI fixed!

[FrankReynolds]

Yeah I wanna finish my last 14 +2 pieces to be 100/100 without dragging my buddies who have much less around ... seemed kinda selfish so I thought Id see if a merc was selling since gil is lulz easy to farm. If I dual boxed with a WHM alt I wouldnt need friends to finish them but I don't. Did you farm every piece of currency for your rag and apoc? I hope you didn't buy currency because you found dynamis hard ... I imagine you bought it out of convenience. Can I go solo mobs in abyssea to complete my pieces faster than I can make the gil to buy them ... no so why would I? Same reason I bought my pops for Ochain rather than farming each and every T2 and T3 VNM.

Rewarding players who already think the content is too easy with gear that makes the content easier, exacerbates the problem. How about they give out gear that makes you suck, but doubles your chances of drops when you win something. That way you need to bring lame players along to kill stuff, but good players increase the odds of drops. That way everybody benefits. You get better drops, more challenge and a reason to include people who would normally be left out. :P

I'm not the one complaining about dyna or relics or trying to get the game changed if i was you could acully use that point.

Either way you proved your self wrong apparently it's easier to make gil than to do abyssea meaning there some type on challenge even if it's just a time sink (which most mmos are)

I like when people say I'm an elitest.

Dont be so jelly LB you will get an empy eventually.

I wonder why pple call u elitest ?

I'm not asking for changes to current content either. Reading is hard. I would like ADDITIONAL content. Everything currently in game would still be there I would just like to see NEW options to complete the same content under more difficult settings with rewards reflective of the higher difficulty. How does the fact that I can make the gil to buy +2 items with less time than I can farm the same items make abyssea challenging? Thats the point. I dont assume you found dynamis too difficult. I imagine you saw that you could make more gil per day to buy currency than you could farm in the same time? I have a limited play time of a couple hours per day mon-fri and weekends are hit and miss. Somedays I can spend hours others none at all. I can choose to farm a few +2 items in that time frame or I could farm 10x the amount needed to buy them in the same time frame. This really isnt hard to understand I shouldnt have to spell it out.

As far as calling someone out for coming into my thread and shiting it up with personal issues, I dont really consider that elitest.

Ironic the guy that complains how the game is too easy w/ buffs is paying pple to do content for him (buying abyssea items) if it's so easy why are you paying other to do it for you lol.

LMAO I know right, these so called snowflakes are total BS.... They can't even do abyssea content on their own and yet complaint about every single things and blame abyssea for everything. If it was so easy, go do it on your own, dual box whatever, and get it done. And please don't talk about efficiency, that word is for "casual and lazy players" hah ha hah. I thought the whole "fake imaginary achievement" that these snowflakes get is for completing arduous super grindy activities on their own so that they can tower about everyone else and get their self entitlement epeen feeling.

Dont be so jelly LB you will get an empy eventually. Probably. Maybe. Hopefully. Well maybe someone will read one of your posts begging for others to leave abyssea so you can complete one and feel sorry enough for you they will just make you one.

LOL, I am not jealous, heck I been collecting all the drops from many NMs all along on my own leisurely time. I would have done a few had I just focus on nothing but abyssea and spam grind these empy since they are very very very doable, heck I can pop Carabose and Briareus all day long if I wanted to and be done with it in a week. Dual boxing has its own advantage you know lol, and beastmasters combo + summoners can pretty much take care of these NMs with ease. And yes there are plenty of things to do beside abyssea

OMG you dual box and still havn't completed an empy LOL. /comfort. I guarentee I spend less time in abyssea than you lol.

[Ragmar]

I like when people say I'm an elitest. The neareset and dearest friends I have in game dont even gear swap lol. I don't care because each knows the function of their jobs, when they don't know something they ask and actually listen. I don't play WoW so I don't know how their system is but if it allows players to complete the same content with difficulty settings and rewards based on each then yes sounds nice. I'm not trying to keep anyone from getting gear I'm wanting a system which requires/encourages players learn more than how to abyssea worm exp party, then go spam super easy content (largely leeching off others, you know that BLU you invite who, mid fight, you find doesnt have the proc spells they said they did or the BRD who cant proc with his 100 lvl magic skills) to obtain top notch gear. You can bring up abyssea all you want, saying simply remove crour buffs and atma for your challenge. If you take a WAR with full buffs from WHM RDM and BRD you are still going to find plenty of mobs that will one shot him with tp moves because that isnt how these mobs were designed to be fought. Do yourself a favor and just go see how much damage Rani does even with cruor buffs. Besides abyssea is dead aside from people farming empy's and its not content I'm asking to be changed so you wouldnt be losing your easymode its ok relax. NNI meh whatever can be beat without 3rd party tools just ends up being about the RNG and needing very job specific set ups/2hr abilities. Yay Legion PD/Embrava/zerg (least skilled strategy) only strategy okgo ... I would like to see content that requires NINs and PLDs doing more than holding adds and procing swift blade/shield bash/ninjitsu/katana. Locking 2hrs would force alliances to use other strats requiring a higher level of skill than WS every 100 tp to complete the content and hopfully encouraging the lesser skilled to improve. PD zergs require well geared players not skilled. I'd like to see the emphasis on a players skill not gear. Such an elitest.

[Ragmar]

I dont know what else you've been doing since you dont have all jobs 99 so you arent exping, no NNI gear, hardly any VW progress which makes it doubtful you are doing Neo Limbus/Odin and Legion, so what? Dynamis? Old lvl 75 content? You have made very little progress in FFXI (even dual boxing which makes the game that much more lulz) so I'm really not sure what you have been doing lol.

[Rezeak]

As far as i'm concerned the way FFXI is awesome.

1 or 2 pieces of hard content which periodically gets made easier and more hard content is added which means newer more casual players can keep up with the better players.

Honestly FFXI is as hard as you make it you can relax and do content 2-3 month after release using the wiki and such or you could be trying to do content on release which is a challenge and is tough.

Either way i love abyssea cause it's a tool that people use to get a decent level fast, so many members in my ls inc me have used it to lvl jobs fast so we can do new content, Remember before in 75 days you need x job to do y so u spend 3 months lvling and gearing 1 job to be told it's been nerfed.

my only issue w/ FFXI is lack of content and that SMN needs a buff badly but that's why i have other games.

Off topic : i solo farmed 90% of my relics since it only takes like 90 dyna runs to make a relic so 3 months on dyna = relic as for weekends i still pull in 120-180 in on weekends and 150-220 on weekdays and i know others that do better.
