What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

The game controls are just barely sensitive enough for the narrowness of the path.

Yea. I was even trying the tips he gave me like turning the camera while running and such. (which is how I always turn anyways, unless its a quick turn.). Where I normally fell was when you had to drop down on the path, I would usually over shoot the drop, and fall to the bottom.

They need to increase the width of the path slightly. Not too much, but just enough so it isn't as stressful.

After a few friends and I decided that we wanted to start doing ENM on a regular basis, I got pretty used to that mountain. But that one part, toward the bottom and that goes in a sharp U-turn, that shit is the worst. It was like if you didn't hold your camera at exactly the right angle while trying to walk slightly into the mountain, you'd fall.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Ha, I can agree with that ><

I wish they would change it up to something like…
1 per kill (any day/weather not corresponding to the path)
3 per kill (day or weather)
6 per kill (day and weather)

Tell me about it... I'm on Katana Trial 605(?): 200 Diremites during Wind Weather/Day. Thanks...the only Diremites I know of are in A. Subterra... Pso'ja... and Abyssea.

Abyssea doesnt have weather... Pso'ja sucks... and the Subtera (the only one with wind weather) has a 16 minute respawn on a camp of 4 mites.

FML...

Cerberus?

I still vote that you come to Valefor. I think it would be fun as hell to play with you. Although 've done enough recruiting for now and I certainly don't want any more people paying money to xfer to our server. Word is beginning to get around that our LS is here... and promotion is not not as necessery as it was to start. I'm getting 2 or 3 /tell's a day asking to join.

Still... thats neither here nor there... I wish we could duo!

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

This isn't a pet peeve but it really annoyed me.
Myself and 3 other Ls friends decided to do Royal jelly for a couple of scrolls we needed. The rules were set as "Your orb, your drops" and I had made it clear to all that if phalanx was to drop I'd like to lot on it. All other treasure you could do as you please.
Well first run was easy and no significant drops appeared. I passed everything and everyone was happy. The first person that traded went to get another orb whilst the remaining 3 of us went ahead.
So we won and as the crate loaded we were told in /p by the person that popped to run away. the 3rd person said no and next thing we werw outside the bc and the person who's orb it was was freaking out saying it's just her luck and people steal her items like this all of the time. Well she zoned then so did the other person followed by me.

Well she dropped pt and linkpearl and I was confused still because I thought the items had been forfeit by all 3 of us zoning out. There was no item distribution msg in the log. But I had got 2 rings I neither wanted or needed, by then our friend returned with the orb and we went in and won 3 more times. on my run Ni dropped and once outside the Bc we passed and cast lots on items we'd like. No sign of phalanx so I pass on everything being true to my word and our Ls leader at last gets his Ni scroll from my orb "I'm now the favourite" lol.

What I dont get is why our friend freaked out or couldnt be bothered to cast lots on the items. From what I gather on wiki it seems she wanted us to exit the arena from the start so she gained all items on the exit side? My issue is that she was the one that popped the chest open and booted us out into that "lobby" area and she was first to zone while giving abuse.

Thankfully I could send the 2 rings I got through the Ah npc.
I'm just so annoyed with her for blaming others because she didnt know how the treasure pool worked,
Let me know how you guys do things like that because from the /t's I got from her I'm wrong and I dont know what I'm doing.

So.. people ... input pls

It doesn't work that way. If you run away from the battle you appear on the entrance side of the BC zone and anyone left in the BC when the chest is popped appear on the exit side, but other than that you're all in the same zone and can lot or pass on the items regardless of where you are. The only reason to have everyone exit except for the person popping the chest is so that only one person has to run all the way back around to the entrance. If the person wanted to make sure all the items ended up in her inv, she should have asked the pt leader to set her has quartermaster before popping the chest. Bailing on the zone just ensures that you don't get any items, and everything in the treasure pool gets dumped into the inv of the last person in the zone.

And they said you couldn't travel back in time.

Apparently I've safely landed on 2004. And brought my own weapons.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Thanks taskmage.

So from that I really have no idea what her problem was. I just found it odd in 3 years I've never seen her behave that way. She's the helpful person that will go and help anybody no matter how tedious a task it proves to be. I was horrified when I had her 2 rings in my inventory. I'm glad I was able to send them back to her.

Judging from what I read on wiki I wasn't in the wrong. I keep checking ffxiah incase i have a player warning lol.
I wouldnt like to be tainted with a bad rep when I had no idea what was going on.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Indecisiveness when it comes to picking Group 2 merits for Red Mage. I'm pretty sure every Red Mage has gone through this dilema.

I'm probably going to end up maxing Slow II because dammit I love Slow. After that I'll probably resort to a dart board and copious amounts of alcohol to decide.

I approve of this method.
