Coming from WoW - Questions/Concerns

[Yasuhiro]

Of course in a party situation things improved a little by throwing skillchains into the mix and also if you could cast spells it made things more faster, but combat still was a major drag in FFXI, not helped by the ridiculously overpowered enemies that the game was filled with.

That's why you get a party to help kill those enemies and slow combat doesn't necessarily mean bad infact the entirety of XI is pretty slow but heck I still like it. Very comfy game.
