Can be soloed at 61?

Probably depends on your job, but IIRC mobs in the starter zones are only level 65 and pretty weak so you shouldn't have too much of a problem.

Yeah you might die a bit at first until you get the hang of it, but life ain`t meant to be easy.

Yeah I was told that you can't really solo MMM either... and I have no idea how to start that.

You can make mazes for solo, group, crafting, etc. etc. The list is long and confusing.

I really appreciate the information and suggestions, folks! I just tried to go solo outside of whitegate and almost got pwned yesterday... so I shut down the game in disgust. I have really hit the wall when it comes to exping now.

You can "solo" it, but you have to "cheat."

So the people who want new "middle game" content want it to be fun or they want it to give them new ways to earn EXP. If you look at this game's past, neither have meshed together. Even with Abyssea leveling is still a chore and not all that fun. I think it's a case of people wanting cake and eating it too.

What the hell is the point of the cake if I can't eat it? That's a stupid analogy.

I see nothing wrong with being able to get good exp and have fun.

Why not make some friends and try to leech in Abyssea? Frankly, you're not going to learn anything new going from 62-->75 by leveling outside.

Perfect for campaign.

At 61-62 there`s an exceptional BST solo camp outside of Nashmau too.

Then its gravy all the way to the 70s using various camps in Aht Urghan.

Yeah, I never thought I would say this - but I hope that is what the devs were talking about re: dungeons in their 12 month schedule today. It seems like the dungeon type of leveling could solve the exp+fun problem (I hate saying it but...it works for WoW doesn't it?)

It means people want everything all the time. If you eat too much cake you're gonna get fat and fat tarus are not attractive.
