Rare Rewards for Solo Players

[Zumi]

What I want to know is hard work, solo skill and dedication will you be able to earn top end weapons and gear solo. In FFXI I pretty much solo any NM in abyssea for AF3 seals and +2 items. It's not as efficient as taking a group but at least something gets done and I can work toward what I want.

As for weapons in FFXI I was pretty much able to solo an Ochian and a Verethragna with very little help. Only had help on a couple of NMs but 95% of the work I did solo everything without dual boxing. As seen in my profile here http://www.ffxiah.com/player/Phoenix/Zumi

Also you can get any relic you want in FFXI solo by going to dynamis by yourself every day. Takes longer then going with a group but hey it gets done.

FFXIV is a different story no progress on anything can be made solo. I believe you need to offer a solo route for people who don't know a ton of people who play FFXIV. Sure I would love to get a relic in FFXIV but there is no shout groups and no solo option.

I feel like I am missing out on the majority of FFXIV's content because I don't really know 7 other people playing the game to do stuff with.

FFXI got it prefect Relic and Empyrean weapons can be done solo slowly or much faster with a group.
