So if I were to resub, what would I be looking at in terms of getting a good weapon? I currently have a joyeuse. Is doing the magian trials thing still valid or what?

Would it be worth it to get the 50k bayld and update to gear quick over say, genbu's shield or some other toy I've always wanted to have? I could get the 99 high end club and robe for my RDM with that. Also, are there still leveling/merit parties going on and easy to get into? I think I'm stuck at level 92 or something.

Majumbo posted:Combine those leveling systems with the new Trust system and you can basically summon a party at will and allow you to either experience on content that is more rewarding and complete a decent amount of quests/missions without relying on others. With the ability to summon healers, tanks and damage dealers you can have a party of 4 ready to go in no time. I can attest to this. My pld went from 27 to 35 'solo' in 1:45:00 last night with GoV/RoE/Trust killing worms and bats in korolloka. I got several self-exp chain 3's (which at double experience made a single kill ~780xp). Abyssea is currently abandoned I hope I can get in on a worms party on Friday night so I can level pld to 99 and hopefully get decent sword skillups.

Majumbo posted:Abyssea may see a bit of a resurgence since the new ark angels battlefield require 20-30 merit points to enter each time. This may also see a return of some voidwatch NMs since they are a super easy way to get fast experience. And the battlefields are where you get the artifact upgrading papers. I really wanna get in on some upgrading, Atrophy +1 just looks awesome.

Cool Blue Reason posted:So is it pretty easy to get to cap without having to rely on level syncing in one place for hours? That was fast (when I could find a group) but grinding in level appropriate zones seems like it would be more interesting even with an NPC party, plus the prospect of skilling up from almost nothing at 99 didn't sound fun. I was thinking about resubbing to XIV but it just doesn't hold the same charm, so maybe I'll give this another shot. I wish alter egos worked in parties, I'd put get a mule to a "sweet spot" level and park it on the other side of the zone out of exp range, then go nuts on "* of valor" pages. Skillups are really easy through 30 if you have the beret/shirt, one of them gives + to skillup chances.

Moldy Taxes posted:I've talked a bit about it before, but the skillup system is really in need of a reworking for the three people every month who want to start the game fresh, and the people coming back after a long, pre-adoulin hiatus. They seemed to have fixed or alleviated most of the old-school grinding elements in this game, and yet they keep this one around. Sure, you can buy food to help it along, but it doesn't help new or poor mage players when Pitaru tends to be criminally expensive (although I just checked xiah and I guess prices have gone down some since?) (426/.3 (average gain))= 1420 books at what, 300 per book? 426k sparks.

Moldy Taxes posted:I'll see if I can take advantage of that, then. All I really remember is that my RDM and BRD haven't seen their spell caps since Abyssea hit, and it always kind of bugged me. Didn't bother me enough to make me run a spellcast script overnight to cap them, but still a bit of a bummer. I know I can script enhancement up by overwriting bar-spells on myself in town, how would you script healing/enf/ele/dark/div?

Teamed up with misandry tonight, we started at the bastok market gate synced to my level 10 dancer. We killed everything in sight making 1 loop around vamp hill, then going straight to the dunes. By the time we crossed into the dunes we were level 23 and I had enough sparks to get an entire eminent armour set in addition to the sword i got last night. By the way, can a level 99 party sync to a level 99? If so, we could totally spark/merit farm by getting an alliance in a zone with high spawns and setting the appropriate crystal gathering RoE. 100 sparks per 10 crystals, kills, high damage, and level sync kills. We'd be getting sparks at like 10-20k per hr and capping merits. Good way to get rem's tale pages and merits for DM pops.

I leveled BLM to 58 and WHM to 49 last night in la theine worms=, but then the party broke (it was a shell going for DM2 merits), so I switched to 99 rdm/blm and solo'd Genbu, Byakko, and Suzaku. I only needed to cast cure when fighting Byakko. Tonight I'm going to hit Seiryu and try Kirin, then do another pop set or two. I wonder if I can solo the kings? I have 2 sets of pops

# ¿ Dec 14, 2013 23:52 |

Genbu and Suzaku went down solo without even needing to heal Byakko and Seiryu, I needed to toss a heal here and there Kirin finally got me, but not before I took him down to 30%. I'm pretty sure I can do this, I just need to plan a bit better.

Eight-Six posted:The farther away something is from your relative skill level, the faster you get skill ups. Or so I've been led to believe. That's why it's encouraged to find a wide enough disparity and then make up the difference with +accuracy. However, with the introduction of ilvl gear and massive amounts of +skill on it, the best thing to do is get your hands on an ilvl weapon you want to train in, and then go whack worms in a party like frod said. My Greatsword skill is only 190-ish, and while training it in a worms party with Kaquljaan equipped, I've got more than enough skill to hit 90%+ of the time while getting frequent skill ups. P. much this, I had 232 sword skill and an eminent scimitar. I ran through the sky bosses once, now I have 245 sword.

ToxicToast posted:I am totally bummed out. Called tech support and learned that my account was deleted because it had been inactive for so long. I had not played since 2005. I am still thinking about starting all over again but I mostly wanted to just spend time revisiting old zones and goofing off. How long does it take to get to ride the airship and go to Kazham, get to Jueno, things like that now? Could I do it all in a afternoon or two? You can unlock most areas by running to them once and touching a home crystal. You can now warp to any home point you've previously visited by touching any other home point crystal. It's not outside of reason to get someone to escort you around a few places so you can teleport within a few hours. Khazam requires item collection so it may be marginally more difficult, but still doable.
