The main point is that fact that methods of exp have been removed and hindered the ability of some people to play the game the way they enjoy it. One of the main things I always loved about ffxi was that I could choose when I wanted to pt up or to solo. Now that choice has been taken away. Pets do not offer any real exp and level sync areas for bst pts and stuff have been nerfed as well. What happened to ffxi being a game where you could carve your own path and get to the endgame however you desired? Some jobs I do not want to take to a group, others I wouldn't even consider solo, isn't that the point? By nasomi's single view the option to decide has been taken away and you must "standard exp pt" or suffer a severely reduced or none existent exp rate. I do not think this is staying true to ffxi in any era really. It does stay true to the good old adage that SE will always take good things away, just now it's nasomi. Didn't we come to nasomi to go back to the golden era before SE screwed it all up?


I think this is made up for by extended the amount of EP xp you get now. You can 1 shot mobs and still get 70xp. Before you had a 2 level window for EP mobs and now its like 5-6 levels. You can solo easier now than you could in retail.

Yes we did, there is also a quote out there "Don't bite the hand that feeds you" look he floats the bill for all of this... if he wants to tweak certain things I may not agree with him about it but at the end of the day this is all his he can do as he pleases. I personally am just happy to be playing this game in a simular fashion to what it used to be.

so you are saying that just because he runs the server of his will, we should never disagree with something he does? i mean if he is that kind of person then that is very sad. i like to think that someone who would invest so much time and money into a server like this must love it and want it to be the best experience possible. if he does not want input from the community that he serves then that is just sad. i would believe that his interest is in what is best for the community and that the players are having a good time and happy as possible (within limits). or maybe he just has a god complex and likes the control and power. who knows.


also; i enjoy the server, im not leaving or saying it sucks. I am just trying to make the experience better and point out what i feel is a flawed logic on a change that was not going to hurt the community(imo). i do respect what nas does, but i dont think i could have respect for someone who does not care about feedback and wants everyone to just take it as it is. i think we all want the experience here to be the best one possible.

Hello everybody, I returned to this server after few years and started leveling a new class, but discovered THERE ARE NO BOOKS AROUND! So this makes soloing not very doable for me (the ocasional book quest fulfillment was making the process less grindy). Can anybody please explain how to get a party? I dont have any linkshell - is there maybe some /world or /lfg linkshell? and where might I get it? I am rly having trouble geting social here :) Thank you in advance!

Books went away like 3.5 years ago. 1-12 you'll solo, then hit the dunes and put your flag up. Shout in any major city/populated area and someone will be able to provide you with a social shell, there's no global ls. What city are you from?
