    Please change limit break quests.

    I know a lot of people this will not affect as they are beyond the quests and 99, but for those of us who aren't, this is becoming an absolute nightmare.

    Lvl 50 one I solod just, died in citadel due to bomb agro at the ??? But still finished it.
    However the next one to collect 3 friggacites from xarcxabard is becoming a reason to just quit the game.

    Three days now I've been shouting for help as all those from LS have bailed to xiv.
    Three times I've had offers of help on condition I pay 500k Gil, that might be a trivial amount to someone high enough to farm, but for a lvl 55 that's beyond me.

    I'm at the stage if thinking what's the point of playing as the next LB in the three strongholds is even worse..

    If you really want to promote for people to level up, why hold that back by limit breaks that are seriously outdated

    Killing three NMs to get a KI is not doable solo and with a dwindling population it's impossible to get people to help without paying way over the top.

    A suggestion would be
    Limit break 1:- hand over 10 beast men seals
    Limit break 2:- hand over 20 beast men seals
    Limit break 3:- hand over 50 beast men seals.
    LB4 is kindred seals already with the follow ons seals, so it also makes it more fluid without restricting someone's abilities to level further.

    As I said I know this won't affect many but for those leveling a character for the first time, this is a major hinderance so please consider either removing it or changing it to make it more solo friendly.

    Oh and yes I did try to solo it, tiger one shotted me, with npc out and trust npcs.
    Second attempt tried to sneak invis, didnt know they are true sight so died instantly again.
    I've hit lvl 55 four times now due to down leveling due to this.
    So this literally is a last ditch begging you SE to help someone out that really wants to enjoy the game!!!!

    Thanks for reading and seasons greetings.

    I wouldn't mind paying if it was a reasonable amount, actually did make 500k at one point from mog garden items, then blew it all accidentally one night when drunk thinking I was buying magical maps but infact was buying the airship pass... Woke up not amused lol

    You don't need to kill the NMs. Just run back and touch the ??? to get the KI you need.
    I recently leveled a mule to 99 and soloed all limit breaks save for the last one with very little difficulty.

    If you're having trouble getting past the NMs, try something new. Maybe use THF for flee, or WHM / RDM for stoneskin, or even PLD for invincible.

    Good luck!

    PLD learns Invincible at Level 1.

    This Limit Break quest is trivial compared to some of the later quests and milestones you'll encounter in this game, so I suggest you start getting used to taking a wibbly-wobbly path to your destination instead of putting your head down and brute forcing your way through things. If that doesn't sound appealing, then I don't think this is the right game for you.

    You may not like the idea of leveling another job from 1 right now, but you're going to have to eventually, and some of those options are very useful once you have them. Getting THF to Flee levels also gets you Treasure Hunter, and learning Utsusemi on NIN also gets you... well... Utsusemi. Stoneskin probably won't be enough to help you, though.

    Don't Pay for anything

    Dat if Anyone is Charging you anything for anything in his game they are not worth your time. Remember this is just a game. Move to Fenrir i'll show ya some tricks. I agree though that some stuff needs to be changed to be more solo friendly. Actually all of it should be solo friendly since the introduction of XIV. No one wants to do anything as a team in this game.

    Don't blame ffxiv for this. This ball was set into motion by se long before arr debuted. Now with Trust and what not, teams will all but disappear.

    And on that note, hey OP have you tried using trust npcs? If nothing else they can occupy the nm long enough for you to go touch the ???, get the ki and get the heck outta there. Anyone charging you 500k for this is a @#$%. I do things like this for ppl for free all the time, simply because its fast, easy and not a bother at all.

    In my first LS, doing LB3 solo was a right of passage, so nobody would ever help with that one. Beaudux(sp?) you mainly have to watch out for true sound mobs at the end. Best bring sneak oil and/or echo drops. Davoi just takes some time to get the bloody orb I think it is. Castle O. is the only rough one, trying to hit the switch and make it through the door in time without dying.
