Yeah, that's is one of the things about FFXI that made it so enjoyable. You always felt a sense of accomplishment.
Oh I bet, I feel accomplished just getting THF to 25 and War to 10.
Oh I see. I completely understand. I'm in the same boat. I haven't even signed on in so long but they still keep it going. Guess I'll have to cancel it directly, but I don't know if I want to do that just yet. A seven year investment is hard to give up.
I'm unemployed, which is why I went with the 30 day trial, hoping to find a job so I can purchase the Content IDs so I can continue to play.
Yeah, SE pretty much burns those in a trash can once they are used once. Which makes things a little difficult on people trying to rejoin. Upside is that the Vana'diel Collection is pretty cheap right? Korruloka Tunnels I think or something like that. If you're playing on the PC it should be pretty easy to find copies of the game still. PS2 and 360 I'm not so sure. I think they still put out collections for the PS2. It's like 20 or 30 isn't it? It's a small price and worth the ease of comfort to play in a larger area of the game.
Well I would be in my mid 30's from the place in the Bastok mines and you need Zilart but I'm on the 30 day trial since SE is up tight with their ID recovery so I couldn't get one of my 2 old ID's that have everything on it. Since no Zilart, no Kazham either.
Well 25 in Qufim is too high. You'll only be getting like 90-120 on average at that point. Once you hit 25 you should be heading over to Kazham, either that or find a new level sync to pull you down to 20-21. They maybe leveling off of worms, since 20-22 the worms in Qufim are the fastest and best exp you'll find around. So I could imagine people doing that, but they'd need to find a new person to level sync with to maintain something like every hour or two. Either that or the level sync dies a lot to lose exp.
I'm 25 THF right now, and Qufim sucks, I was in a party and getting 30xp, with lvl sync down to me, was pretty bad. Haven't seen a summoner in Qufim so I don't know but I would imagine that it would be easy since most the mobs in Qufim are pretty simple.
Yeah, I don't know, but the level sync really helped out a lot of people in exping. Unfortunately, it always completely destroys skill ups because you can gain levels and exp, but you can't gain skill. Which is really screwed up my White Mage in a couple of areas. They need to allow skill ups in level sync. People already do skill up parties for higher up, this is only making matters worse. But I remember some good times level sync'ing to 21 in Qufim Island or wherever they might be doing it. Summoner-burn though is pretty rare outside of BCNM.
It might have been 50-75, not sure. But what it was that a group of Summoners lvlsynced down to like 21 and pulled a ton of mobs and just exp chained them all with their summons. Boom XP like no other.
I'd imagine that's an exaggeration, but I'd imagine it would be possible that summoners have a trick for fast leveling.
I've heard of Summoners going from like 35-75 in a matter of hours.
