    At least, I think. I saw another character with the same first name but different last, and in a linkshell this time. Still, had a bunch of pointlessly named characters following them.

    On low population servers (mine) this is a worse problem. The economy is already monopolized by a few big linkshells, we don't need gil sellers running rampant.
    I've seen them on my server too. Hopefully SE does something about this because the gil sellers have had almost a year to build up a huge reserve of gil just before the currency was made more valuable. It wouldn't take very long for someone to monitor the camps and catch these guys in the act.

    I joined FFXI in its 5th year, where the community had figured stuff out and had the leveling up system / monsters / camps figured out. I've never been a part of this experience, i'm lost as what to do for effective SP gain ; ;

    I spent last night doing leves in a party and the xp was great. Gained an entire level. Not sure what everyone's problem is with leve xp.

    Well many people have an issue with Mages and Archers being nerfed. And if you are someone who does solo/light parties, then this presents a huge problem, especially if you are a mage who prefers being the BLM type instead of a main Healer. Everyone is going to possibly pigeon hole CON. This could be a problem. IDK I havn't played it yet to see. I'm used to having to manage my MP because I've been a vet WHM on XI for years, pre-aby.

    And for those who solo/duo/ light parties, it could be agitating. My husband and I only duo, and I help DD and also keep us healed...well that could be a problem for us. SO IDK, I'll just have to see.

    The gist of Party play for Guildleve is as follows.

    People who are leve sharing (leeching) get only about 500 bonus sp give or take.
    People who Activate or Leve Link get usually the full amount of Bonus SP at the end of the leve.

    It is worthwhile to be in a LeveLink party because you are able to Do Leves at higher stars at a faster speed. Meaning more SP bonus at the end for everyone levelinking.

    If you are leeching, there's really little incentive to do so, unless you're just along for the ride to help someone 5 star something quick on a leftover guildleve or inbetween linked guildleves.

    The reason why leve Sharing is chuper nerfed is if completing all shared leves gave you 3k+ then all you need to do is Make all 8 party members get 8 leves, never link, do 64 leves at 3k+ sp for 192,000sp for each guildleve rotation. And that value can easily double.

    I don't know what the effect of leve linking a full party does at the moment. And I have yet to calculate gardians aspect or even the new sp multiplier potions.

    Someone in our LS had Vintage Jester's Cap as a reward in a 100 point Faction leve. I would call that pretty decent

    I don't see why everyone is QQing so hard.
    It's rather monotonous and boring.
    Just like when we kept repeating the same leves.

    Can't you see that Yoshi and his team do not want people
    gaining the maximum level in around a week or two.
    Which at the previous SP rate; was more than possible.

    You have to remember they are trying to balance the classes
    through the nerfing of classes, they are also trying to balance
    the SP rewards across all types of quests, dungeons and leve
    rewards.
    There is other alternates to leves; people are just too
    blind and QQing too hard over the fact they cannot attain the max
    rank with stupid speed.

    They aren't making this game for you solely, they are
    making it for those that will join upon the release of
    the PS3 version. I personally love 1.18, I just wish people
    would keep their opinions to themselves when they have
    nothing constructive to serve.

    How are we supposed to get faction points?

    Go grind a boring leve that gives us no SP?

    Not sure if that was a good decision!

    You now get Like Twice the amount of faction points per finish. They're easily farmable if you're in a party intent on doing so.
