Nin are better tanks now?

And like I said before abyssea isn't about "maximum damage" while measuring the size of each others pen1ses.

Actually, this is what the game is about. And the only reason you think PLD does good damage is you have never really seen what a good melee can do. Why would you want to take 20 minutes to kill something, when you could do it in 5, why kill something once when you could have killed it 4 times?

Maybe your idea of fun is wasting peoples time and doing things inefficiently, but it's not mine, and it's not anyone else's when they have to wait for you. It's not about doing more damage to keep hate better, everyone knows once you cap enmity you don't have to do much to stay there, it's about other jobs killing faster while tanking just as well and reducing the amount of time you have to spend fighting things.

Why do you have such a problem with being successful in FFXI and doing things quickly?

Why do you have such a problem with being successful in FFXI and doing things quickly?

Because your attempt at being succesful, requires others to "fail", and therefore promotes imbalance and conflict.
Your world involves "Noobs" and "Pros". But for there to be 1 "Pro" there needs to be 10~20 "Noobs". In the process of a "Pros" rise in status quo, brings about the exploitation of those "beneath"

It's simply a micro scale model of the current monopolistic society.

But the obvious reply to my post is that I'm just another "Noob" and nobody give's a $#!% about me. But that's not true, why? Because I don't live in the perception of "Your World"

You're only a noob if you choose to be. Everyone can be the best, it isn't hard, some people, like yourself just don't care to try. That is what qualifies people as noobs, and nothing else. Bad players also do not need to exist for any reason, if everyone was good, the game would be a lot more enjoyable. Like for instance, you wouldn't have to wait an hour for people to kill Briarius, or anything else! Because everyone would be good and proc/kill quickly.

I love when people assume its impossible to be good at a game, and also enjoy it. I know one thing, When i look at Karbuncle, I want to be proud of my gear and proud of how i play, and i certainly enjoy doing everything i can to learn my job, Become better at it, gear myself right, and know the mechanics of how to play the game so i can further improve myself.

And guess what?

I F**king love this game

If you don't like E-Peen battles, You may not like the MMO genre. the biggest driving point in an MMO is that its an ever evolving game with ever changing goals, to be the best at what you do. If you want to play without any consequences or people hating your way, You might enjoy a Single player RPG Better, it might be more enjoyable. If you want Social Interaction i hear "outside" is a great game for that.

But as Wish Said, Some people enjoy playing this game well, and doing their jobs in a way that won't hinder everyone around them. I for one like to do my best to be the best i can be on the job i Play. I spend a lot of time gearing up, Leveling new jobs, and learning how to do things well so when i do things with my friends, I don't impede them, or become the "third leg from hell".

But i don't shoot them down either, Sometimes my brother wants to play DRK, or RNG, and i let them cause I know its important to have fun in a game.

But there's also the point where you have to accept in an MMO, there is a right way, and a wrong way to play. You can play how you want, You just need to accept sometimes the way you want to play is not efficient, and not everyone will embrace your "Style". It doesn't mean you shouldn't do it, You just need to be able to accept criticism or different opinions on the subject without resorting to name calling.

I should follow Karbuncle around some more.

I think he/she is starting to like my nonchalant attitude.
