Eight-Six posted:Any goon willing to cleave my BRD to 99 for gil? Tired of helping Abyssea parties that go to poo poo once I change out of my DD jobs, figured I'd throw the offer out here first before shouts. Use trust npcs, GoV/FoV manuals and RoE quests. That should get you levels very quickly. Brd has debuff songs and buffs songs to help you level faster. If you rely on just your brd meleeing, it will probably take forever at lower levels till you get better gear options. Just a word to the wise, you will need to get a level 90 or 99 daurdabla before you can really call yourself a good brd. Gjallarhorn helps a lot, especially with ballad's, but daurdabla is game changing for a brd. That is not something you need to worry about till your brd is level 99 and you have all five aoidos' +2'd, and at least the aoidos' necklace.

Eight-Six posted:35 and 2 million. Save your 2 million, you will need it to buy gjallarhorn/daurdabla. Start your own abyssea exp group. That is the fastest way to level for brd. Leveling the way I told you is actually really easy, but requires you to pay attention to what you are doing and have decent gear for meleeing as brd.

The prereqs for the JSE is fairly easy to do. The biggest problem is getting yourself geared and with a decent spellcast and group to accomplish that stuff. Finding a good group is really hard to do. P.S. The JSE is poo poo for most, but the shield and instrument are worth getting if you do not have the ochain/daurdabla.

I tried doing Arrapago Remnants II last night, but I could not get past the first floor. You see whenever I tried to use the blue circle teleport it would give me an error message. The message said that I could not use to teleport. Do you have to open the gilded door before you can use the teleport? Is there some objective to the first floor that is not in Jadey's Salvage2 guide? I am out of ideas.

I was a retard and had a bunch of beitetsu in my bazaar for like 1k which is apparently worth money now since it was bought up immediately. Does dyna currency still sell decently? It's the only thing I have ever really been able to farm consistently.

Ffxiah, bg-wiki, ffxiah forums and the AH shouts, ffxiclopedia, ffxidb(great site that shows what mobs drop an item and its rarity), windower forums, and maybe the bg forums. Get cupper from http://www.ffevo.net/files/file/223-cupper/, it is an illegal speed increase and go through walls thing. It is super helpful, just never talk about it in ffxi chat and do not use it in populated areas or in groups of people you do not know. SE do use chat as proof to ban characters.

Painful Dart Bomb posted:I thought that dnc was the more efficient dynamis farmer due to being able to lock sub for white procs and still have access to self heals and snk/invis. Maybe that's changed though, it's been a long time since I last farmed there. Magic is a lot harder to proc than WS. WS is harder to proc than JA. I use THF, so I can't say if DNC or THF is better. BST is also really good at dynamis. I am told BLU and PUP are two other great jobs to take to farm dynamis. I recommend THF or DNC. Farming dynamis for currency and relic armor, is a good idea. THF and DNC can also farm Salvage 2 for alexandrite and plans.

Zero The Hero posted:Maybe a more thoroughly skilled DNC than me gets off more procs on DNC main than I can, but I simply don't proc enough mobs for the 1/100 chance of a white proc to catch up with the sheer amount of extra currency I get from high levels of TH. That said, can DNC get a level of TH somehow? That would make a huge difference. Blu/dnc can easily farm dynamis currency. Procs have more to do with the amount of currency dropping than TH. Proc the mob and kill it asap, that will help you get more currency than if you had full +TH gear.

LiquidFriend posted:I think you're overestimating how much of an impact a higher level of TH actually brings for a lot of stuff. TH has no affect on dynamis currency or alexandrite droprates. Those are two easy to farm stuff. TH does affect relic/relic-1 armor droprates. I am not sure if TH does anything to plans, but I noticed a difference in the amount of plans I got per run if I had my TH hands and feet on.

LiquidFriend posted:Yeah, you should still unlock Voidwatch. I have no idea which sparks items sells for the most gil. I bet Jadey knows, I remember him making a comment a few months ago about the high level stuff selling for the most. The level 99 gear has ex on them, I am almost 100% sure that makes them unsellable. I would try the weapons. I know Negoroshiki sells for about 12k per gun. Thern posted:That link mentions that you should unlock Voidwatch, but the OP mentions it as being obsolete. Is it still worth doing? Voidwatch, Abyssea, Meeble Burrows, Imperial Tags from Aht Urghan; they all have timers and are all worth starting their timers. Meeble Burrows has some accessories that are really good for some jobs. Abyssea is still the best place to level from 30-99, you just have a lot of skilling up to do. Imperial Tags are not that useful unless you are doing assaults.

Pomp posted:I've been using search to check Gusgen Mines and Crawlers Nest for bookburn alliances every few hours, but nobody seems to actually do those anymore. The only way you will find a book burn is if you start one yourself. Still, your best bet is go solo with trust npcs and do a solo book burning. Make sure to get Kupipi, she is a great healer for when you are first starting out. Make sure to melee the mob. Trusts do not heal you or help attack the mob unless you are actually in combat with the mob, not just slinging nukes from a far. You also want to make sure that you are using Record of Eminence quests. Some of them are one time only, but the ones you can repeat are sometimes mob and zone specific. Spoils quests are often repeatable. Some of the kill quests, or deal damage quests are repeatable as well. Basically when I am trying to say is do a few repeatable RoE(Record of Eminence) quests and try to find a book in the same zone. Trusts to help you out, you should be able to level easily. The blue chests that drop have temp items that can help you out in a pinch. The brown chests can have armor or some other stuff that you can use or sell. Chests are really helpful. Good luck, and make sure to use ffxiah, bg-wiki, and ffxiclopedia. Gruknor fucked around with this message at 23:56 on Jun 19, 2014 |

King for a day posted:I'm thinking about picking up this game if it gets a decent sale on the Steam summer sale. I'm also trying to get my old POL account linked to my SE account but so far SE support hasn't figured out why I can't yet. But it got me thinking: should I just started over? You can start over completely, or when you get your old account reactivated you can have it on another account. It is a good idea to have a backup account if you are into that kind of thing. Fresh characters can sell crystals on the AH for gil, selling stacks of beehive chips or wax sell at a decent rate. BST are still great, they can solo/duo most of the content except a few of the higher end stuff. If you get creative, you can probably even do end game stuff. A few months ago me and 17 other bst/pup/smn fought a T5 nm. We won and it was fun.

On a solo job, you will likely time out and on a DD job you're probably going to end up dying due to the trusts being even more retarded than the average pubbie. Did you try it on easy? Did you use cupper to run fast and through walls? Some of the nms in that zone are a huge pain in the rear end with their aoe. Pet jobs will probably have a hard time, but might also have the best shot, if their pet can take hits.

Painful Dart Bomb posted:I tried 1/1/1 on DNC and MNK, cupping pretty hard. On DNC I was doing ok while I was turtling, but it was taking too long so I tried to speed it up by busting out some SCs. I ended up getting para'd and dying. On MNK my NPCs ate a few AoEs and sat there curing themselves while I died lmbo Even with really bad pubbies, you could at least do a 2/2/2. Now Yorica, Rala, and Cirdas; those I could see being solable with good gear and using trust npcs. I can duo all of the skirms that are not ra'kaznar. I can almost solo all of them except yorica. I bet I could solo yorica if I had better gear for my blm and sch to level 49. The Ra'kaznar skirm is a huge pain, and actually benefits from having multiple people going in and destroying all the mobs to get the correct amount of points for objective 1 and 2. If all six people use cupper and have okay to decent gear, it is easily doable.
