Hi all. i quit FFXI after CoP came out, ran all but one of the proms. but now that im coming back, there are 2 new expansions. so my question is can i still have fun with RoZ and CoP as my only expansions or is it vital that i buy the other 2? i'd really like to get back into this game it still is my favorite but i'd really hate to buy the 2 new expansions and realize i just can't play anymore. So you guys think i can get back inot the game without purchasing the x-pacs and get them later once i figure out if its gona be worth it to me or coming back without them is pointless?

Re: how important are ToUA and WoG??
You can for a while. But if you're interested in leveling for EXP much past 55ish, then you'll need TOAU. I don't know about WoG.
Also, if you want to try out the new jobs, you'll obviously need the corresponding expansion.

Re: how important are ToUA and WoG??
Yeah it IS important to keep in mind that if you want BLU, COR, PUP, SCH and DNC open to you for main or subjob purposes, that ToA and WotG are a requirement. Additionally, there is some equipment you can only obtain if you have access to the content in these expansions.

Re: how important are ToUA and WoG??
Get all of them, you will want all of them. The level 26-32 leveling area is a Rise of the Zilart area. Treasues of Aht Ughrgan is a requirement. WotG is important too because you will want access to the new jobs somewhere down the line.
In fact, there's no reason not to get all the expanisons, because buying them all seperate costs MORE than just buying the Vanadiel 2008 collection, and with the 2008 you only need to put in one "activation" code, if you bought them all seperate, you'd need to put it in 5.BRD 75 WHM 44 RDM 20 NIN 23 WAR 20 THF 16

Re: how important are ToUA and WoG??
Short answer. No you don't need them to start playing.
Long answer. Yes, you'll need and want them for all the 50+ content they off as well as the ability to obtain great gear and obscene EXP per hour."I have a forebrain, my ability to abstract thoughts allow for all kinds of things" - Red Mage 8-Bit theater

Re: how important are ToUA and WoG??
Everybody keeps saying "yes, you'll want it" ... I'd say you can just jump back in so long as you're not 50+ and see how you like it. You'll need it later, of course, but not yet.

Well, most of us who are saying yes you'll want it are adding the caveat that you'll want it if you want to participate in certain activities, which we spell out.

Re: how important are ToUA and WoG??
I looked online and only saw 07 collection not 08. I checked at Gamestop and Best Buy when I took my nephew shopping, and I didn't see any for PC.
I am rebuilding my PC and would hate to load the original discs... Thats going to be 40 hours of downloading files LoL.

Re: how important are ToUA and WoG??
At this point TOAU is practically a requirement mainly b/c of the leveling areas (50 ->75). Not to mention it also opens up the Salvage gear sets and Assault Gear sets as well. The Salvage gear sets are highly wanted on most, if not all, jobs. You can take a peek of them on wiki. Not to mention, Besiged & Assaults are a good way to kill time when you only have one or two hrs online (granted there is a Besiged going on).
WOTG seems rather optional at this point. People haven't really migrated to new lvling areas that WOTG offers. However if you have a job around 55+ I would highly recommend WOTG mainly b/c of campaign battles. Campaign Battles, unlike Besiged in TOAU, are constantly happening and around 55 it seems you'd get the most out of Campaign Battles. It's a good way to do something while seeking for a PT invite or just to kill time again. Also WOTG opens up a few more areas for low lvls to solo/PT, which is always a plus in my book.
Hope this helps you make your choice.
