Raising your level

[Chocobits]

I'm surprised people are willing to pay for leech spots. Usually when I leech, I build my own parties, and I actively pop chests and don't afk for extended periods. I regularly turn down leechers asking to buy a spot because it isn't just my time; it's the whole alliance's. That and it's so easy to get in as a leech for free.

Maybe I should gather a buncha leech payers together and just solo train mobs down for them. Aeoleon Edge > ??? > Profit.

Get to lvl 30 as fast you can with all your job and make exp alliances. Worry about the skills later.

I too hate FC parites to leech, better to do it on dom pages were you can make back your crour and get dom notes to npc for gil. Putting together a alli is not hard might take a little while but not long. On top of most FC parties are also banking all KIs they get so people are getting used hard for paying for slots.

Svengali is wrong. Some people do that, but mostly only people with more Gil than sense.

1) if you get a good and long enough paying pos you can get more gil than you paid with blinkers
2) some job spend more gils XPing the old way than paying a leech spot (food, ammo of the good lvl for rng-cor)
3) paying leech+skill up+farming the gil spent take less time than xp outside

now just do what you like most. if you like old pt do it

Ignore Starcade, he has this insane obsession with everyone who plays this game and actually THINKS that everyone but him cheats.

RAIST got it right though.

Actually, reading even the content here in the official forums, that first belief of mine is actually about correct. I do begin to wonder if I'm the only legitimate player left.

Why not? Given the arrogance all over this forum, you guys are trying to turn it into the cesspool that is BluGartr.

No, it is not correct. You just see what you want to and either ignore or (seemingly intentionally) misinterpret the rest to fit in to your own assumptions.

I'd just like to point out that as far as arrogance on the forum goes, you seem happy to jump right in alongside those you seem to scorn.

You are the only one here who is misguided and confused. You are also paranoid, but thats besides the point. How's your blog going though? Cracked the case of Area 51 yet? Kennedy shot from a building or grassy knoll?

Given your arrogance all over this forum, you are trying to turn this into your own personal blog. Which then, nobody would read. Kindof like your blog, isn't it? Well, not read unless they need to laugh at something.

Edit: Damn, Volkai got to it first.

Because gil is not used on services. The auction house is for players who buy gil because who would pay for items when they could craft it/farm it themselves. etc. Right? People only use gil to buy things from NPC!

Most people either level sync to 70, then abyssea the rest of the way.

This is a lie, most people are solo to 30, then abyssea to 90. lol

No. Your assumptions on the reasoning behind my statement are wrong.

The idea that the auction house is for gilbuyers is laughably foolish, seeing as the primary complaint players originally held regarding RMT is that they were negatively impacting the auction house.


The reason I am of the opinion that people who choose to pay large quantities of gil to leech XP (often rates like 300,000gil/1 hour of leeching) are those with more gil than sense is because 300k for an hour of leeching XP is a poor financial decision that smacks of impatience and a failure to think things through.

You can get just as much XP by building your own XP Alliance and while it may take a little longer to put together a group, the time-spent-to-money-saved ratio is far more favorable.
