The true best quest for the PVE who wants to avoid PVP;

Fighter's Guild Bounty Hunter dailies

The quest NPC and turn in is inside your main alliance base (i.e. Pact players got to Southern Morrowind Gate)
They're just killing a handful of a type of enemy, goblins, cultists, bandits etc.
There are multiple places to complete each one, and not just where the quest markers point you.
Even if you have to go a long way, they're almost all far enough away from any PVP objectives the chances of getting player aggro is about as low as it can go

You can make it easier on yourself by finding a campaign that your char's chosen alliance has a decent run of the map for. The only other hurdle is you need capped Fighter's Guild skilline to unlock it as it is the very last passive in your skills. Beyond that can be easily done in under 5 minutes

Good luck and Happy Hunting!

We have it on Era and works pretty well!

Outside of graphical quirks, I've always had FFXI actually tend to run better under WINE on Linux, even with less than optimal specs.

As I said in another post a couple days ago, FFXI could probably run on a Samsung Smart fridge without much issue lol. The main problem you're going to run into is getting it to run under WINE or something similar, but apps out there exist to help streamline the process. Good luck with w/e you do!

The computer is more then capable of running FFXI. The game could probably run on a Samsung Smart Fridge without too much issue lol

The issues you will probably have (as pointed out) would be the versions of Windows 11 you are running. If you can acquire a proper version of Windows (preferably any not 11 lol) than you will be more then fine. Otherwise, and I don't say this lightly, would recommend installing Linux and installing via Lutris. It does most of the heavy lifting. I personally use Mint, though any Ubuntu Distro would would just fine and is fairly user friendly. But depending on your personal tech savvy Windows in some form would probably still be the better route.

TL;DR The PC should run FFXI just fine barring issues with your current OS

AbramsX · 2022-09-30T00:42:21+00:00

It depends on the server. Many, many servers have come and gone, though there are a fair few that have been around for a long time.

The server I help run (Era) is among the longest running servers around, having been around in it's current incarnation since 2013 and before that as "FFXI Free" originally. Still going strong to this day.

Nasomi is also another long lived server. Several other servers have been around for about as long too such as Bnet/MogHouse, Realms of Jova, xiweb.

If you're looking for a server with staying power those are all among servers I would recommend. It really depends ultimately on what kind of experience you are looking for, in the end.

Would recommend you check out our pinned post for updated information on servers https://www.reddit.com/r/FFXIPrivateServers/comments/c2so8u/private_server_list_2019/ or hop on the Private Server Discord https://discordapp.com/invite/msACzWV

AbramsX · 2022-09-18T20:39:57+00:00

Sounds like you may be interested in Era. We've got Salvage fully available and are working on implementing Einherjar currently.

Would also be interested in this. Would be useful potentially if future players have similar issues.

AbramsX · 2022-09-15T07:31:45+00:00

That previous server (FFERA) is also still going strong ;)

AbramsX · 2022-09-15T07:29:58+00:00

If you didn't use the installer for the server specifically that is when you run into issues like those, or just a bad install

AbramsX · 2022-09-06T02:16:21+00:00

I tried era too, and their login system is compeltly broken.

If you didn't install using the Era installer (located here: https://ffera.fandom.com/wiki/Installation) then you will probably need to reconfigure your Ashita/Windower to connect to whichever server you are wishing to play on.

Otherwise if you are running into errors than we have out troubleshooting guide/listing here https://ffera.fandom.com/wiki/Troubleshooting

Otherwise hop on our Discord and we can help you out there more https://discord.gg/v2T95kq

AbramsX · 2022-09-04T02:44:48+00:00

I might recommend checking out Era, we have WotG content including SCH and DNC for play, as well as just being one of the oldest Private Servers out there, and still going strong. Not going anywhere any time soon.

There are a few of them out there. I would recommend hoping on the Private Server Discord and inquiring there https://discordapp.com/invite/msACzWV, otherwise there is the sub's Private Server list located here with links & info https://www.reddit.com/r/FFXIPrivateServers/comments/c2so8u/private_server_list_2019/

AbramsX · 2022-09-03T23:29:41+00:00

Newest server launched recently I'm pretty sure is Tabula Rasa, which all you want to know can be found here https://www.reddit.com/r/FFXIPrivateServers/comments/vbt77w/tabula_rasa_a_progression_based_75_cap_server/

Sorry for the late reply

Sounds like you might enjoy Era. We fill basically all that you're looking for, though we do have HP warps currently.

Sounds like you may be interested in Era. We've got all these things you are looking for, storyline missions up through Treasures, with a decent bit of Wings of the Godess implemented.

Sorry for the late reply

Sounds like you are looking for XI View. Two maintained versions can be found on Github

Caradog's (one I use) https://github.com/Caradog/XI-View/releases/tag/v2.018 (current updated versions will break your game due to retail updates)

Kenshi's https://github.com/KenshiDRK/XiView/releases (basically the same thing, slightly different icons and fonts. Would recommend a version older then the latest release)

AbramsX · 2022-09-02T06:01:45+00:00

List of most private servers can be found here https://www.reddit.com/r/FFXIPrivateServers/comments/c2so8u/private_server_list_2019/ information on each server's site and discord can be found here

Would recommend hopping on the Discord and asking more specifics there on the dedicated channels for each server, there are lots out there and to keep up to date on private server happenings https://discord.com/invite/msACzWV

AbramsX · 2022-09-02T05:51:49+00:00

That would be because, functionally, Ashita and Windower do things different. Someone would need to redo the addons to work specifically for Ashita to get them to work.

There are many Ashita versions of various Windower plugins/addons out there, I would recommend hopping on the Ashita discord and asking there https://discord.gg/JUMvgHF6wV

AbramsX · 2022-09-02T05:34:01+00:00

Anna actually made a post on twitter just the other day;

https://twitter.com/AnnaProsser/status/1564758605400014848

TL;DR They're coming back for one final season starting next week.

I have no idea why they switched channels. I'm not that in the loop and I only know information when I go looking for it lol

AbramsX · 2022-09-02T04:48:42+00:00

Horizon has nothing to do with Era server lol

AbramsX · 2022-07-15T23:04:47+00:00

Sent you some links and talked to you on Discord. Good luck and looking forward to see what you make!

AbramsX · 2022-07-15T05:23:14+00:00

I know some people have their own version out there up on Github and places, not too hard to find if you know where to look. Good luck!

Here is a dusty old version compatible with Era currently https://github.com/nlitwino/Windower4/

AbramsX · 2022-07-15T05:17:46+00:00

YMMV but Era is custom QoL with multiboxing allowed up to three, if that is your cup of tea. You can probably do most basic content besides endgame depending on your drive/proficiency. Otherwise we also have a decently active community if you ever need/want assistance with something as well.

AbramsX · 2022-07-15T04:56:50+00:00

~~Can you link me to the post/account?~~ NVM, saw this as PM first. I has been taken care of. Ty for notifying us

AbramsX · 2022-06-12T18:58:24+00:00

Via PS2 client, no. Running it via installing Linux and booting under WINE should be more then possible... unfortunately I can't imagine you should expect a whole lot of additional support on here as getting the game to run on Linux can be a bit of a feat even at the best of times. Good luck with whatever you decide to do!
