1>75 times

Re: 1>75 times

Anyone can play a job, not everyone learns to play a job to its fullest potential. I know CORs that still lean on level 22 bullets at 75 and pack MP in every slot they can stick it in - you might like them just because they buff you, but they are gimped beyond belief. How often do I see BRDsl running around with a fucking Sandorian Horn "for the CHR" and no other instrument? All the time. How many 56+ SCHs do I see playing curebuckets instead of using their JAs to reduce PT damage so curing is less neccessary? Too many. RNGs and SAM/RNGs using scorpion arrows at 75? Its not rare.

Simply levelling a job to 75 or several times in PTs is not a display of mastery of the game. The path is defined, there's no surprises to it anymore.

BST's path isn't that defined when it comes to soloing. Sure we have lots of data on where to level, but not everyone picks the same camps for the same reasons. I recently saw a guide written about all the WotG camps that are viable from 20+ and have fairies fluttering about them. But for me, I prefer the CoP and RoZ camps because there is high risk and high reward for doing them. WotG and ToA camps would admittedly be faster EXP, but not as profitable to me overall. Not to mention WotG zones have serious level disparity in mobs, I'd pretty much have to do one mob vs. the same mob type all the time, which isn't a great use of the beast wheels to me.

Re: 1>75 times

I don't see anybody mentioning the fact that you need gil to buy gear, although I probably just missed it or skipped over it when the arguments started.

It's being glossed over with the word preparation and most of this argument being done by people that are ignoring the fact that there is a very large difference between your first job to 75 and every subsequent job.

Ya, if I have one job up, I've spent time getting gil up and I've already done the limit break quests, all sorts of OP warps, a bunch of missions to rank up and what not ya, the second job to 75 goes a hell of a lot faster. If it's your first, you are not getting to 75 in a month or less.

Also, popcorn sucks.

Re: 1>75 times

Heh, how many players have all their OP warps, CoP and RoZs done after their first 75, though?

There are people that still shout for Teleports to the three main crags to this day, with numerous 75s to their names.

A lot of them aren't that bad to obtain, but unless your home nation claims saruta, ronfaure and gustaburg you're not getting them all in a short period of time.

As for missions though, I managed to finish RoZ and obtain sea at 72. Had an awesome static group.

Re: 1>75 times

I'm 25 and I'm pretty sure I make more money than you from my severance and unemployment benefits alone. And as I said before, I hadn't even played FFXI for like 3 years, just reactivated when I got laid off in February. But keep trying to make excuses as to why you are bad at the game, I would be upset too if I were playing for years and only amounted to being a 75 PLD.

And omgwtfwhatever, learning to play a Job in FFXI is not hard.

It's even funnier to me that you're braggin about your unemployment status while you jack off to the many level 75s you have in this game. You could be 25 or 65, doesn't make you any less lame. The fact that the only thing you can say about your time in FFXI is multiple 75s doesn't mean you're good at the game; it means you really have no real life. A dyslexic ape with down-syndrome could get 10 jobs to 75 too, doesn't make him a good player though.

This is signature worthy.

Re: 1>75 times

Any idiot can PLAY a job. But if you power through the levels too quickly.. you don't learn how to best put those skills to use.

Also, I would imagine his 75 PLD would wipe the floor with your own (If you have it) simply because he has more experiance.



We don't suck at the game, we just enjoy playing it at our own pace..

It all comes down to this. You think you're cool cause you have X amount of Jobs at 75. We think you're an idiot because you stroke that e-peen of yours more then anything else. You're 25 and you act like the 12 year old kids on Xbox Live. Seriously grow the hell up, all jobs at 75 won't help if no one wants anything to do with you.

Actually I don't think I'm cool, I simply stated I got a few jobs to 75 in a couple of weeks. Since some of you are so offended by this fact, I can only asume it's because you're bitter about the fact that you've been playing 7 years and only have one 75, if that. I don't see any other reason, it's a logical conclusion IMO.

Actually an ape wouldn't know how to hold hate or heal, etc. It would get the PT killed. How would it even know how to join groups?

No one in this board is bitter at taking X years to hit 75. Your repeated usage of this accusation is nothing more than flame bait and a weak argument to hide behind too.

You're describing the common noob, has nothing to do with how fast you level to 75.

Then why are you upset at me leveling fast? Why do you even care? It's a logical conclusion.

No one here is upset at how fast you level. No one cares.

People are annoyed that you keep flaunting all your 75s (aka amount of hours wasted away behind a computer/tv screen) like it makes you better than anyone else. People like you are ruining the game and should just stfu and stroke your epeen in silence.

Sometimes, people play video games to enjoy their free time and not act like 12 years old. "Look how great I am! Everybody is < me!!11"

Saying it's a logical conclusion doesn't actually make it so, or a good argument either. It may come as a surprise to you, but personal attacks aren't an argument at all, and they're a quick way to get warnings or bans.

If you had read my first reply to you you'd know that I don't care how quickly you got to 75.

The only one who's been attacked here is me, I've been called a Kid, no lifer, and a liar. Please re-read the thread.

Re: 1&gt;75 times

No, I'm describing the people who rush to 75, they are the common noob.

The Level 22 bullet MP COR doesn't want to spend the gil on Iron and Steel Bullets nor do they wish to level a RNG or DNC subjob.

The San'dorian Horn BRD doesn't want to invest in HQ instruments for each song, so they just short their PT of better buffs by having a gimpy flute that was cheap on the AH and only took up on slot so they don't have to mule thier gimpy SAM gear.

The RNGs and SAM/RNGs on Scorpion arrows? Again, cutting corners. What's the point of SAM/RNG if you're gonna go with gimpy Scorpion Arrows? Those are for farming or if you're running dry on Demons/Kabura for TP, they're not for Sidewinders after 60+. You shouldn't be caught dead with them otherwise. I mean, SAMs love to peen over those Haguns, but why do that if you're going Soboro + Bow + Gimpy Arrows?

A SCH playing a cure bucket might be good in the eyes of his PT, but not to other SCHs.

These aren't the exceptions to the rule, they incredibly common. They are people just like you. They think so long as they have numerous 75s and leech dynamis gear, that they are awesome players.

Then why are you upset at me leveling fast? Why do you even care? It's a logical conclusion.

We're not upset at you for levelling fast, we just don't like you because you're bragging about how fast you EXP when this is a topic about solo/duo. You are adding nothing of value or insight to this topic.

[ospeff]

Re: 1&gt;75 times

No you're describing the common noob. People who level fast, such as I, can get a subjob to 37 in one day, so there's no reason to not level it. They have crap gear because they are poor, that doesnt even have anything to do with anything, theres poor and rich people who level both fast and slow. This isn't real life where people horde money for their retirement funds, if someone has shit gear they are poor, period.

Jealousy is a weak emotion.
