Shadowbringers gil making

Because I want to do the story at my own pace. If I'm already level capped, then I don't have to worry about leveling anymore. Plus, it'll make the fights easier. That's just how I choose to play.

If you're doing all MSQ and sidequests as you go, you will be able to take one character though the story comfortably. Though I'd suggest being maybe two levels ahead of the current quest level. Once you have that lead, you won't lose it. Even more if you're doing daily roulettes as you go.

If nothing else, move on when you're Lv67-68 or something so you can at least get some value out of quest leveling.

I feel like I need to make it perfectly clear that I'm perfectly aware that I'm going to take longer than everybody else, and that I won't be getting exp where I would otherwise get exp. I'm okay with that. I never wanted it to come across as logical or understandable - it's just how I play the game.

So, what will you guys do during the launch, take advantage of the market or do the story quest first?

People who elect to take advantage of the markets before main story and leveling war/magic but instead leveling craft/gather and sell stand to make tons of money with a new xpac and for many of the updates to it as time goes by. First few weeks is crazy money. I'll personally be leveling my whm and doing main story. I'm not really into selling much anymore.

How about you guys let thisbperson play the game the way they want?

When I went through storm blood, if my main out paced the msq (I do roulettes while doing the quests), I did roulettes on other jobs then continue the msq on those and kept cycling until I was done. Got nin, war, and rdm to 70 by the time I was done with the msq. I wanted those jobs leveled anyway, so there we go. I don't rush the msq. You can run out of content quickly if you do, then people complain there is no content when they blow through it.

Probably straighten out my hotbars for the first hour...haha. Then casually work on MSQ to open up this new world from SE. I'm planning on not rushing through everything this time.

I already backed off. But if "taking your time with the story" is the only concern then you don't need to be at max level before you start doing that, and maybe he just hadn't thought that through, and was giving himself unnecessary work befor he could enjoy it.

I appreciate the concern for my time as well as the defense of my play-style. However, I'm going to have to ask a favor and have us all stop talking about me. I wouldn't want the thread to get derailed over something like this.

At the end of the day, I can't possibly be hurting anybody other than myself with my methods. (Even though I actually prefer this method of progression. I do lots of roulettes every day anyway, so why not?)

Basically, sell materia, level a crafter during que times that I'm not spending leveling MCH/AST/PLD through MSQ and side quests, and sell FATE reward items. Then begin crafting Housing items and various crafting materials.

Start gathering early and gouge as much as I can until the market settles sounds like a good idea to me. EDIT: As I progress through the MSQ though. Need to unlock those areas to gather in! Then after I finish the MSQ and max out my gatherers again i'll work on my crafters.
