Let's have a round of applause for bringing grind parties front and center in FFXIV

[Neptune]

Hopefully they can add content that will make you happy but I don't think grind parties are a bad focus for now. Grinding on mobs in a party is what you do in any Final Fantasy.

There's nothing wrong with grinding, but in 2011 it's unacceptable in the marketplace. It's at best a niche activity to be enjoyed by the few that still enjoy it. There is definitely a major red flag that it's a focus of the game.

other people complain about having to run around

Who is complaining about running around?

I for one enjoy the quests. I'd like nothing more than to run around for 1 hour on a quest, but I should get 30,000 SP for doing so.

I enjoy the quests too but 30,000 SP? That's about 1/3 of the SP required to hit 49 or 50. By that logic you should be able to hit those levels by doing a three quests in a short portion of your day.

I just wish they'd give us some kind of option to select what class the SP is going to. All too often I'm already talking to the quest NPC by the time I remember to switch off my R50 >.>

Do leves at high ranks .Everyone saying 100k sp omg how i get that , is 2 leve reset , 3 at most.
There seems to be misconception to what they did to leves, they still give a whole load of sp.(40-50k sp per reset) for level 40 camps.
they already admitted level 30 sp procces was broken , so im gonna assume they refering to leves in lv 30 camps.( this ones give small quantity of sp)
I dont see what is the problem here.I was 48 with 0 sp into it mrd and i missed tons of leve resets and im like 30k to 50 just soloing leves when i remember to do it.

So we can have r50 Tanks who can't tank, and r50 healers who can't heal? Good job.

Logic, on these forums? From someone whose account only displays them as being r20? Impossible.

Also, thats going in my sig.
