Is it always this bad?

Re: Is it always this bad?

I was levelin my BLU in the first jungle the other day, and we got around 2k exp in like 3 hours. This was all because we kept getting healers that would leave the party because we didn't have a power leveler.

Um, wow. Getting 3k exp/hr was easy in the jungles even if the players didn't know how to make a macro, or were still adjusting/learning their job in a party, some jobs like thief or summoner, don't even get to their more interesting abilities that really define them until level 25-30. I can't believe you actually had whm leaving the party because you didn't have a PL.

What really cracks me up is in those levels, if you have a PL then a whm is almost not needed except for the occasional regen.

Ok, so far a reasonable request, you can buy a map of the Mire

You can't buy a map of the Mire, it's quested from that NM chigoe fight in Bhaflau. It's not nice to run around in if you don't have a map. It's not nice to run around in if you DO have a map, actually.

Arrapago Reef is 1000 IS points, as is Mamook and Halvung. I think the only buyable ones are AZ itself, Wajaom and Bhaflau - the others are IS, currency or quested.

I know, it's sad. We should have just /sea all PL . As a BLU I really could have solo'd better exp at those levels. I should have just left after the first hour, but I kept holding out for that exceptional party.

Grim indeed, i have jkust gone through all of that, hopefully things start getting better at Qufim Island and such...

It was funny though, I was at lvl20 and wanting Jeuno area for better parties and Choc quest. A guy in my LS said to go thru Pashow and then Rolanberry as its easier that way to solo (id died twice already trying to get thru Jugner) so off i went....

Pashow wasnt too bad, just avoided any aggro. But Rolanberry...I didnt have a map! I ran and ran until I came across a NIN and WHM party but whilst waiting for them to finish their fight, i aggro'ed a Qudav. SO off i went, running randomly in circles until somehow I bumped onto a WHM71 and he/she showed me the way to Jeuno - which was about 10 secs run in the direction i was going!!
