Adjustment to enemy levels, plz

[Kojo]

I'm not sure why anyone thought it'd be a good idea to put level 100+ mobs right outside of a city, because it isn't. Some people can solo them, some can't, those who can't are stuck paying ridiculous amounts for quest items. Despite at 75 running through Incredibly Tough, aggressive mobs to get to the 3 cities, just outside the city gates were mobs a lv 10 could solo, and they scaled up as you moved further from the city, why not do the same thing in Ceizak and Yahse? Please tell me there are plans to adjust mobs and their levels in these two zones.

If you are talking about adoulin: the Developers clearly stated multiple times that the new expansion is based around lvl 99, so its lvl 99 content. You better get your job up to 99 if you want to do anything in Adoulin. Easy as that, go lvl your job.

Your main job shows PUP 99 and you're having trouble soloing them? Here's another concept that seems foreign in FFXI, team up with other players to get something done not like it's a MMORPG or anything crazy like that.

I have 10 lv 99s. None of them are NIN.

I haven't actually tried soloing them on PUP, I figured if BST couldn't, PUP couldn't.

NIN isnt the only job capable of soloing things.

Jobs that can easy/maybe with a little trouble solo things:

NIN, DNC, BLU, PUP, BST, THF, PLD, DRG, BLM (by nukeing), SCH (by nukeing)
adjust your gear and SJ for soloing and you should be fine

Jobs that can solo but struggle a bit more:
RDM SMN SAM MNK DRK
here the same, adjust your gear and SJ

Jobs that definitly struggle without support:
The rest: RNG BRD WAR COR WHM

now there are 20 jobs (ignoreing the new ones since I assume you didnt lvl them yet fully or geared skilled them etc)
you said you lvld 10 jobs to 99

I gave you 10 option of jobs that can solo good - decent and 5 jobs that can solo semi decent. Multiple of your 10 Jobs should hit the above criteria of Jobs listed.

of course if your gear is ass (and by ass I dont mean you need a relic/empy and ofmg uber gear to be able to solo) and you suck at playing your jobs, none of the above options will help you.

Thanks for the advice. I dunno why no one offers advice before blasting people, though.

well you gave 0 information about your situation you just screamed "omg too high lvl for 75", which lets people assume you have only lvl 75 jobs. Thus I stated what the Developers said, that the expansion is based around lvl 99 content, hence go lvl your job. People dont know how many jobs you have leveld and what you are doing etc etc etc. So its kind of hard to give advice to someone with 0 information beforehand.

I never said I was 75, I referenced how we had to pass mobs we couldn't solo to get to things we could AT 75. Which seems backwards to me.

i actually kinda enjoy where the mobs are now. they're hard enough to be mildly interesting while weak enough that i can solo them without getting knocked around.


granted a month from now when the whole "it's new so i'll pay fifty times what stuff is worth!" thing wears off, these mooks will prolly be useless and not worth the effort. but meh, what're you gonna do? that wouldn't be an issue of mobs too strong so much as mobs not worth killing even if they died in one hit.
