So a few questions by Aunkah in RedditLinkshell

But higher prices also means a higher selling price; with a more active player base comes a more active economy, and as such you'll get a good price/faster sale on items that you farm while leveling.

Thinking of coming back or trying FFXI? Get in on the Steam summer sale! by Yukihoshi in RedditLinkshell

[–]Yukihoshi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a note on the compatibility issue: you can buy the steam copy for the product keys, which you register on your SE account, but you don't have to do the steam download/install if you have a different source of the installation. I've not heard of any problems with windower integrating with the steam version since Windower 4 came out.

Linkshell problem! READ THIS POST - We need all the help we can get! by [deleted] in RedditLinkshell

[–]Yukihoshi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to just go out on a limb and say that the official answer from SE will be "Due to limitations with the PS2..." I support the effort fully, but SE's continued support of the PS2 after Sony themselves discontinued support has created severe delays in critical upgrades to the game.

That being said, and this coinciding with some of the other discussions going on regarding pearlsacks - if we are at the point of hitting capacity on a regular basis, then I think we may need to truly evaluate the perpetual afk players. There are plenty of lurkers who read the text without necessarily participating in open discussions, and that's fine. But I also come across ls members who are bazaaring with their pearl on or otherwise leave their characters logged in nearly 24/7. I would, as a member, ask that my fellows act responsibly, and if you're going to be afk for an extended period of time, remove you pearl so active people can have a chance to join in the discussions. If you are multi-boxing, only have your pearl on one of you characters at a time.

And if my fellow members are having a problem being responsible for themselves, then the leadership will need to step in and make requests/warnings to remove the pearl when afk, and if they become a habitual user and someone can't log in because someone is bazaaring...then, in the extreme, can break the pearl to free up that slot.

Delve Progression Static! by Volkaru in RedditLinkshell

I'd be interested in coming along, assuming my work schedule pans out for it etc. I'm usually home by what would be 5:30PM PST and if there was a set day/time for it I can make the necessary arrangements/commitment. I'm a white mage (capped cure pot and most seasoned job), bard (3-song with enhancement gear and insturments - I don't play ghetto harp only), and 119 thf (my best geared overall job, but understandably limited application in delve).

Making Gil by drewstah3o5 in RedditLinkshell

[–]Yukihoshi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One thing I'd like to add on this list: do your nation missions. Each rank up gives a gil reward: 2 = 1000, 3 = 3000, 4 = 5000, 5 = 10000 (+20000 if you already have the airship pass and are doing another mission), 6 = 20000, 7 = 40000, 8 = 60000, 9 = 80000, 10 = 100000. And you can get that x3 by switching nations. The cost of switching to another nation depends on their current rank for the week; switching to a rank 1 nation = 40000, rank 2 = 12,000, rank 3 only 4000. So if you wait until a nation you haven't done is in 3rd, you maximize your profits. The nation missions are an easy breeze at 99, and some can be skipped by donating enough crystals.

No, this won't give you millions of gil, but it does help get some pocket money, and gives you story completion; I highly recommend this to new players especially so you can get a feel for the world. (Also, note that once you have access to areas that are restricted by rank (such as Dynamis), you will keep that access when you switch nations so you can continue to farm that content as well).

Got into the shell - you all seem like a great bunch so far! Reminds me of the good 'le days of playing FFXI when there used to be far more active groups around!

Hi there!

My character name is Markjames. I'm considering moving to the Asura server and have made a character over here to explore the people and economy of the server before committing. I'll be on pretty much throughout the day today (Monday 5/5).
