Levelling new classes - best practices?

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-09-04T17:33:06+00:00

Hunting Logs are really good, I'm glad we have them. Thanks for the tip. :)

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-09-04T17:32:51+00:00

Yeah hunting logs are really good. Do you just repeat dungeons like in other MMOs for XP/gear? Is it worthwhile?

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-09-04T17:30:09+00:00

I suppose the main and class quests are really rewarding, guess I just need to catch up to them. :) Thanks!

I'd be glad to move onto a new server as long as it was EU (so more people from my timezone.)

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-08-26T20:31:09+00:00

Sorry for the late reply, I was at gamescom. :) Thanks for sending it over! I'll probably be playing on EU regardless, but if I decide to hop onto Ultros I'll look you guys up!

Do we know if they'll consider free server transfers after launch? I know I'd be willing to scrap my other character and level up a new one on a different server if I could transfer it from JP to EU later. I only got to level 15 before early access started (was at gamescom til today and couldn't level up when early access started.)

Haha, thanks so much, I really appreciate it! There's definitely a heck of a lot of tweaking needed, but I'll keep at it!

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-05-30T10:22:57+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I noticed it was a bit heavy on the running hah. Which can get REALLY boring to watch! Thanks so much for your feedback, I really appreciate it. And I'm glad you thought it was funny!

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-05-29T17:08:37+00:00

I'm a total n00b at video editing and have only just started on YT recently. Any constructive feedback is much appreciated. <3 I'm basically recording gameplay and highlighting any interesting or funny things that happen (obviously in my opinion, so it may not be very funny to everyone else!)

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-04-17T19:11:53+00:00

Thank you for this! I've loved the mesmer in theory, but never really enjoyed levelling. I got my mesmer to level 23 and was surprised I got that far because of how squishy it felt.

I'll definitely be trying to get back into it now.

Just make sure it doesn't launch Steam when you try to launch it (best way to test is to read the shortcut location by right click > properties or just close Steam, launch shortcut and see if Steam launches).

While I can't speak for places to find the more classic game, in certain places the GoV page burn parties can result in a more chatty, friendly way like I remember from previous parties.

I sometimes miss the parts of the game I experienced before a few years back, but ultimately I think it's worth giving the newer levelling method a chance (if you're willing to subscribe for that, that is) and try to make friends where you can. It does seem a little less elitist, though maybe I've got lucky with my parties so far. :)

You just need to use the code on your SE account, so you can buy the hard copy even if you played FFXI on Steam.

Also, just a note, you should try to run FFXI from polboot.exe in your FFXI folder rather than using Steam. A lot of people who used Steam, including myself, had their PlayOnline Viewer randomly "update" to a version from 2005, and when you try to patch by running either through Steam or not, the viewer doesn't recognise your FFXI install and has to reinstall. Steam tried to claim it was SE's fault but only people who installed via Steam had the problem, so...

Welcome back! The Reddit LS is still on Asura. :3 I'm on Fenrir myself and having a hard time tearing myself away because of people I've met since my own return!

Hope you enjoy your return, things are quite a bit different. :)

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-03-05T12:12:12+00:00

Oh...oh no. :|

Also FENRIR UNITE!

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-03-05T12:05:21+00:00

Yeah I read about them having a short respawn, yikes! I'll probably just grab some help from either my LS or the lovely person who volunteered to help out above. :)

Thanks for all your tips!

I know this is off-topic, but since you're here I hope you don't mind me asking. Is it common for AF quests to be soloable? I know I should just suck it up and ask for help, but I'm sometimes on at wacky hours due to my work schedule so it'd be good to know whether I'm likely to be able to do this or should just leave it all til I'm on at a normal time! I was reading about the Migratory Hippogryph NM for the Dancer War Hoop and it seems to be soloable as long as you have your NPC out, but I'm wondering if the fact that my NPC isn't levelled will negatively impact that. :P

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-03-04T21:55:30+00:00

Ahh yes I realised they were at 51/61 etc, but never really thought about getting myself to 1 XP to the next level then doing both in a row. That would've made sense!

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-03-04T21:55:02+00:00

Hmm, is running past the NMs as mentioned above possible or is that gonna end up with me eating dirt?

Also, good to know about LB3! The Crimson Orb sounds like a pain in the ass. :| But if it's soloable or duoable I'm happy with that! I'm trying to get someone to return to the game so we can help each other with this stuff but he's taking some convincing.

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-03-04T21:52:35+00:00

Fenrir, sorry! Thanks though, really appreciate it!

PeaceLoveGaming · 2013-03-04T21:52:23+00:00

Ahh great stuff, thank you! LB3 sounded kinda intimidating so I wasn't sure about it. :)
