Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I'm sick of how damn slow it is to run in this game, even with movement speed+ gear, spells or abilities. No wonder everyone just speed hacks these days, I feel like I'm wasting hours in traveling even with all the Voidwatch, Abyssea and Outpost teleports.

This is pretty much half of the reason I fell in love with Corsair. XI Bolter's Roll

Everyone speed hacks these days, eh? Stop being retarded. There are so many options for quick travel nowadays it's not even funny.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

kinda have to agree...if you at one point do the proper leg work, seems like no area should take you very long to get to.

cept like...the back end of Fei'Yin ><

Nah... those are just Dancers with speed boots.

Though I will agree that base movement speed is a bit annoying after coming back from playing games like Dark Souls, Oblivion ... er ... and pretty much any other game out there. But like others have stated, there are many pathways SE has given us to cut time off of world travel. Travel was sheer agony for me prior to Abyssea and the Warp/Retrace scroll price cuts.

Would be nice to get access to armored Chocobos that were slightly faster at lvl 80 for when you need to traverse through an entire Beastmen zone. But no worries... I lvl'd DNC.

When I first played, I never got Chocobo access until I was level 55 (JUST entering the Aht Urghan areas, and before breaking level caps, and before Level Sync), so I'm pretty used to the walking and such travel speeds.

Not trying to be a smartass or anything, but why did you wait so long?

This... Bibiki Bay - Porgoggo Isle... the top of Uleg. Range... and maybe 1 other place still take time to get to. Everything else is only a teleport/warp away. I don't think it takes me much more than 5 minutes to get anywhere these days.

Speedhacks are all but useless even if people did bother to risk their accounts to use them.

I repeat... lolwut?

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I'm sure people still use them anyway, even though that's one of the few third-party programs that SE can detect. People are lazy.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I've actually seen people using clipper programs to bypass walls/doors in various zones. It makes me sad that SE has let up on their enforcement of these things.

Cant get through that door? Farm a damn key.

Bibiki Bay - Porgoggo Isle...

There's a swimsuit for that.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

SE was never that great at banning people in general. I botted endgame for eight months. In the end I was banned for credit card fraud since I (like any normal human being) had more than one credit card that I use, but several of my ls mates and people in competing linkshells spent years botting kings with no repercussions to their accounts. Not to mention rampant Windower use. If 3PP were that big of a deal, you'd think SE would actually bother banning for it, but they really just didn't care, which was so contrary to everything they always said.

Really the only time they were heavy handed with bans was the salvage exploit, and even then they banned so arbitrarily, so many people I know that used the exploit and didn't lose their accounts and so many people who didn't - not even once - and were banned permanently. This is why people continue to do shit that can get them banned, honestly. SE is either completely apathetic or completely incapable of figuring out who deserves bans. They just hand them out on like a dice roll or something, I swear. Most people just figure they'll do what they want and take their chances.

If you have to speed hack...well..I am not going to bitch at you for it. XI is such an old game SE won't worry about it.
