Rynoto posted:End-game is fun but takes too much time. This is the painful truth. I've set the (very conservative) goal of getting through CoP and doing some BLM solo stuff at 75... curious to see if I'll get sucked into endgame content again. Depends on the server community I suppose!

I didn't quit so much as my computer died and I haven't been able to replace it. I do want to come back eventually, though.

How's population, especially on the low end? I'm trying to get my brother to play FF11 for the first time - we're both huge Project 99/classic EQ fans and while I've discovered FF11, he hasn't.

Server is definitely more top heavy these days, but still have parties forming at all levels, and I see plenty of shouts for low'ish mission progression. At the time of this post there's 1775 people online, and usually about 2k people on each day. In the past month or so I (finally) leveled NIN up to 37 and was still finding competition at camps in the 20s.

I've had no problems finding exp parties at low levels. Party quality is slightly higher on average than what I experienced in 75-era retail, which is nice. There seem to be a lot of shouts for early CoP missions, and there are plenty of friendly people on the server who are willing to help with content.

you can absolutely easily still level, im leveling my 4th job right now and it's pretty easy. save yourself some heartache though and just solo your way to 30ish unless you're leveling something terrible to solo with like black mage edit: 1-10 w/e ron > 10-13/14 goblin/sheep in the northeast in eron > 13/14-17 la theine roaming > 17-19 la theine north central lakeish area circuits > 19-22/23 king ranperre's the worms just past the weird hedge maze > 22/23 - 26ish carpenter's landing via north sandy > 26ish probably the little nook north of the bubu op to 31ish > move onto the beach to around 33ish? > at 33 ur ready to go to garliage and party with actual other humans. the starter stuff can be adjusted for your starting city and obviously you can hop off at any point or just keep your flag up but tbh unless you're confident your party is doing 7k+ a hr it's probably not worth the effort Aisar fucked around with this message at 16:41 on Sep 25, 2023 |

Yeah I have no clue what I want to play at this point. On Live I mostly did RUN and melee RDM, but here meleeing as RDM is strictly verboten and I don’t have Trusts to enable me to ignore the demands of the grouping meta.

if you wanna play a melee that can cast, dark knight is very useful even if it isn't the highest damage at the end. run ain't in yet and is probably gonna have to be radically changed/nerfed if they wanna make it remotely balanced for 75 content. if you wanna be effortlessly overpowered as a melee drg is the choice, mnk requires a bunch of extra quests to get to the overpowered god status (and they're definitely gonna get nerfed soonish) but they're busted, maybe that extra work is a plus for you tho. otherwise the jobs are all pretty balanced except maybe bst which is in an awkward spot and will be apparently really different next patch and samurai which is underpowered right now but they've been promised buffs in the next patch.

I started playing again the other day but I mostly just sit in Windurst Woods and craft. Almost 80 bonecraft Probably going to stall out at 82 or so until they add ToAU and some more sane recipes start showing up in that range.

Does anyone have a social LS they recommend? Something fairly active?

Anyone still playing this?

When two separate social groups reached out to me around the same time to give it a shot, I begrudgingly accepted. I'm playing, it's fine right now. Just waiting to hit a wall.

I got tired of it when I realized I didn't want to engage with any part of the game that wasn't sitting in Windurst and crafting at the AH, so when that became tedious to me I gave up. Doesn't help that most items are completely pointless to craft for profit on this server due to volume and undercutting. You're better off farming drops. I am proud that I managed to nearly get to 90 bonecraft and cleaned out most of the GP items.

I have no clue why but I started playing recently just for the nostalgia hit. Been soloing as a THF at level 12 so far. Aiming to main Bard if I make it that far. Been a bit fun but also difficult scrounging up gil for gear and dealing with killing things without any sub job bonuses.

Honestly if you want some gil to start out I'm not playing anymore and I have about 300k banked so I could throw like 50k your way.

That would help out quite a bit, I'm somewhat making do so far. Just wouldn't want them to flag for RMT which not sure why they would on such a small amount.

I hit a wall on a mid 60s DRK. Felt like I needed money to stay competitive and I've always been garbage at MMO economy. Had a good time while it lasted.

Give me your character name and I can either dbox it to you or trade with you in person, I can get to any city reasonably quickly since I have most OP warps and an airship pass.

I loved this game up until the spot where every 5 levels you have to do a fetch quest. I couldn't find anyone else who needed to do it or wanted to help and lost interest with it over a week and never logged back in. Just started thinking about it last night when I beat Mario RPG on Switch and have nothing to play currently.

I've mostly been raid logging because of long COVID and the slew of other games coming out lately. But if any fresh meat need help with whatever I'm still playing as Doctorwizard.
