mini getting banned in ffxi was in itself legendary. I wouldn't be surprised if he was on a suicide watch

Because he fell asleep during the fight each time.

Gath is the only Legendary person from FFXIV in my book, or the chocobo butt in my face guy

Yeah, it's a sad day when players like him got banned for abusing a blatantly obvious exploit that has been hidden from SE for years.

a legendary player is someone who does unbelievable shit under unbelievable circumstances. it doesn't necessarily have to be the best geared player either

Avesta is a very good example of this. The RDM that managed to solo, pretty much everything.

No thank you, his shouts in Ul'Dah were the most annoying crap ever.

Whether or not you have ever had 30 million gil at any given moment is a moot point because you have either taken the time to farm gil items so you could make all those double meld attempts, or you got incredibly lucky while spirit bonding.

And to meat, yeah I should have clarified in my original post that I was specifying that people with multiple relics have either invested a ton of money or got incredibly lucky because the market value of all the double melds combined is well over 100 mil.

So you include yourself in that as well?

I saw this vid which pretty much showed me how lucky can a meld be which is a 5 meld to a Cobalt body check it out

to me i'v seen one legendary plyer specifcly a drg in an ifrit hard mode run
the tank died and he went and tanked ifrit like a boss with power surge 3 on sure whms helped him but try to imagine that thing

Avesta, tarutaru red mage in FFXI. If anyone can legitimately be considered "legendary" it would be him. He designed and executed some amazing solo kills and was truly innovative, not just lucky.

this guy.


iirc, some JP Paladin on Bahamut was a celebrity in real life. Can't remember name though.

Oh. And Canadian Rofl was slightly infamous during his short time playing.

That is pretty epic. They played for all of what two hours to get those two level 6s? Classic!

Wow, a persons concept of a legendary player can differ so many ways but once you gone from the game, will those same people remember you?

A player can play for a long time and make some (high grade)achievements or play for a short time making more (low grade)achievements but those who put others before him/herself is the Ultimate Legendary Player of all time and will be remembered as long as there are friends to carry the memory.

While someone helping the world succeed, that adventurer is going to achieve the most!

I remember kilita vividly. He used to say his dad worked for Sony and had "insider" knowledge and all sorts of ridiculous junk. It was pretty funny most of the time.

I liked belgianrofl a lot but people took him WAY too seriously. It's too bad there's a lot of stuck up users with very little sense of humor.

What?

Lol, this game has no legendary players...not enough exclusive content. Once you get pvp and stuff, and harder dungeons/bosses, you might start seeing a few names pop up. But in games like this one, guilds become legendary before players do. Occasionally one guild may have an insanely cannot-do-the-stuff-this-guy-does-unstoppable-one-man-wrecking-crew player, but you wont see one for quite a long time. The problem is that most content is curved towards a casual base so there's very very little everyone can't accomplish. These days the only way to get legend status is to rule pvp.

All the good joke responses about oneself being legendary are already taken so I dunno what to post...

im pretty legendary

But we can't do that yet... :(

Yoshi-P is Legendary.

Heretic and Suirieko excellently spoke the only name I wanted to mention in this thread... Avesta.

Like was said, the true measure of "legendary" actually has nothing to do with obtaining rare gear... But rather:

Its for this reason that five or six years later, everyone who played FFXI still talks about Avesta... heck, there was even the rumored legend surrounding the "Avesta Bangles" accessory (added a couple years back?) which suggested that SE named them after him. Naturally, this was just people drawing conclusions and fueling his accomplishments... but still, the guy was extremely skilled.

There are a few people in XI that I considered legendary. Not from what they wore or what group they were in but simply from the skill they had in using their class to get the task completed. Gear doesn't mean shit if you can't use it.

Luck has nothing to do with relics, relics needs commitment from each and every individual in a group that is pursing a relic, you have to be "so good" at the job you're getting the relic for to get pass the faction part of it.
The first part where you get the seals isn't about luck since they have a fair drop rate, me and my group once got 5 seals in 5 runs, without even having one in the top 20 list.
Then you have the 17 minutes speedrun, if you're skillful enough, all of you, you'll be able to get that in no time, unless if you Want to depend on luck and go for the bad drop rate by doing the normal speedrun.

During the faction, Ifrit and Garuda just pray that you won't be unlucky and get an error from the game :p

avesta was extremely skilled, yes. but skill at solo pve != skill at solo pvp != skill at group pve != skill at group pvp

and saying that only one form of content takes skill, or takes "true" skill (while the others apparently take "false" skill?) is just downright silly.

I remembre when I played on Besaid before transfering to Ragnarok there was a Miqo'te called Battle Boobs.

After a few months he was finally reported to a GM who insisted he changed his name. BB then typed in Bobobobobobob Bobobobob ironically which rather than taking as a joke the GM changed his name ~

Thus the Ballad of Bobobobobobob Bobobobob was written.

You are forgetting about the materia melding part, that is the part that I was specifically referring to considering you can not get past the first leg of the actual relic reborn quest without either buying an item or double melding one with materia that is incredibly expensive.

By creating your own materia and crafting your own weapons, you can get through the entire relic quest without paying a dime. I know people who aren't rich or lucky and are happy relic owners.

Hence the luck part, man, is this really going over so many peoples heads that I have to explain it a billion times? Even if you make your own materia you are putting it up to chance. You have 1: Get lucky and get the materia you are aiming for and 2: Get lucky and meld it to the weapon which is at about a 20% chance.

The other alternative to this is paying someone who has already gotten lucky with their double meld an absurd amount of money to buy it from them, or to buy the materia and hope you get lucky on the double meld.

You're missing my point, the materia took me weeks to get and I had a lot of linkshell support with creating that materia. I finally got my double meld on my 12th attempt.

So, I was able to obtain my relic without being "rich" or "lucky". Instead I used dedication and the help of friends.
