Thanks for all I have met here and welcome to ask help or chat in newer mmo's. I'm sure u will recognize me.

For this content finder is coming with 2.0
And you need for all AF quests a party if you do it with the required level. Of course you can do most of the quests solo if you can simple do them with level 50. But the level 50 quest you can't overlevel and need in the end anyway a party.

Go play a singleplayer game and stop wasting your time on XIV.

indeed, MMO = multiplayer. What's your point?

My point could be: don't hate solo/couple players. They go also sometimes to groups when time. And can be very useful. Teach me where I was wrong. Or is it really so that gamers like me are not welcome. Playing solo doesn't mean that I want to be alone. I had wished much more friendly faces round the fires and camps. Start talking to people if you think you are in mmo.

You are trying to do something intended for groups (Black Mage) and complaining about how it is impossible to acquire alone. Also, your use of bizarre idioms is hilarious.

We need a Northman cameo in 2.0, would love to see a NPC from a foreign northern country talk like that.

I would pay much jinglyshine to see that happen.

Northman, I'm a casual gamer, and you're inciting my own rage and disapointment.

There is plenty, of content out there that is solo capable. There is nothing at all that prevents your Thaumaturge from reaching level 50, or any of your classes for that matter.

But please understand that 'Jobs' are a party function. You unlock them to change your class into a role specifically for the utilization of other people.

"Black Mage" and "Solo" are not two words you should be using together for anything meaningful, and that includes your Artifact armor.

Additionally, you've yet to truely explain what your animosity is against partying with others. You state issues about waiting around for a group to get together, but this matter is already in the process of being addressed with Content Finder.

The reason why you're getting such a harsh reaction is that your complains belie the lack of information you have, as well as they are unreasonable given the context of what you are talking about.

I am a soloist for much of this game and I do agree that some content must be soloable to keep players sustained to prevent burn-out on party based content.

But Jobs and AF isn't it.

So please stow away the outspoken disappointment for now. We are at the end of the 1.xx era of FFXIV and there is much on the horizon.

Party is like bring coco's ass to mouth!

Solo play is best for not to be anybody's slave and under bad command.

SE fix!




In all seriousness, I would like to see more solo/duo content as well. I suspect that the future Class AF gear quests will be more focused towards casual players - Something I'm excited about~

Stick around Northman, 2.0 is right around the corner. Don't ditch the game before you try the final version.

Dat Coco. /chuckle
