I want to play *This* game

There's a lot more that goes into endgame content than what I just described, but you wouldn't know that or understand.

there's also new content like Sortie which again is endgame which allows you to upgrade your reforged empyrean armor to +2 and +3 versions

I have no idea what I'm doing, and the setup was awful.. But let's goooo!





This kinda plays like XII, I'm enjoying it so far.

Ahh, FFXI. That was my first ever MMO, back in 2004… I feel old again.

I do have very fond memories of that game. It was my first time explore a virtual world with other players in real time. I still wonder what happened to those I befriended… (Anyone know a Tarutaru named Fred? That was me) Running around Windurst, falling in love with San d'Oria, making the voyage to Jeuno for the first time, getting my airship pass ect. The nostalgia there is strong. That said, I do not miss how originally the only way to level was to group up with other people and just kill things over and over again, and how story/quest content was very much limited, and locked behind areas and battles that where group orientated. I know most people will say thats the point of an MMO, but I like solo play haha. Thats why I was VERY impressed with the QoL updates that came about when I tried it again a few years ago (On a new character as my old account was lost). Trusts are an amazing addition, and I would likely play it more if not for the sub. I may prefer the story and lore of FFXIV, but the one of XI is still very good and rich.

I prefer XIV's combat too, but the jobs where great fun. Pupputmaster was a personal favorite, and I really hope we get a job akin to it in this game one day.

No, XII plays like XI...because its literally XI's engine lol.

I mean, I was half joking. Considering.. But you sure they're the actual same engine?

alot of people ( from what I heard) have told me that ff12 is like FFXI but offline

I never played ff12 before and I need to

[BaconBits]

FF12 is goated IMO.

I really hope that SE bundles the sub fees for XI and XIV together soon, would be a great game to play during content lulls or downtime but as a personal preference, I don't want to pay a sub fee for a 20+ year old game that is in maintenance mode. If it was bundled together with my XIV sub though, I'd definitely spend a lot of time on it!

you build TP fast at endgame but you still need to pay attention in the battles for example I'm a dancer, In Dynamis D runs, I use Haste Samba, Steps like Quick Step to lower the monster's evasion so my team mates can hit the target better and not miss as well as Box Step to lower the Defense of the mob, if the healer is struggling I will help put out a Devine Waltz 2 to help heal. you also have to watch out for NIN at 50% or lower HP because they can blow up, so better have your magic Evasion set / Damage Taken set on so you don't die lol

so no I'm not just auto attacking, I'm actively engaging, debuffing, Supporting and healing to help my teammates and for me to survive in content.

Yes people do Magic Bursts especially in Omen and Vagary which is endgame content.

I also play WHM/SCH with Yagrush and working on my second mythic weapon

Ooooo, you're a fellow WHM! That was my main back in the day, and what I've wanted to attempt to get back to...I'm just a chicken about joining groups for anything. I've been ever-so-slowly working on my Yagrush...maybe in another 5 years it'll be done. lol.
