Been seeking for over a week on my thief at 60+, didn't really feel like levelling other job, really only got SIX(6) party invites in a WEEK? Really? I'm rank 2(I don't plan to go any higher until i'm 75 and ready to start sky). So does rank matter this much to NA player that you're so blinded by that you don't want to invite someone whos rank 2? Rank does not determined the players skill or his wealth. I probably out gear 95% of the newer player in the 60 range, heck i'll even say I am better gear than most fresh 75. What's the point of me having like 6mil in thief gear If i can't even get a party invite?

I'm not complaining about the fact of no party, cause I've fish like 2mil since seeking. I'm complaining about the fact that people base you on your in game rank to determind your wealth or skill which is utterly fucking stupid.

This was NEVER the case even with JP players on retail lol, being rank 2 didn't stop you from getting groups. There was always invite no matter what job you played and retail server was way more crowded than here.


Um...make your own party? Pretty simple solution and how most THFs get to 75. Exp is exp, even if its a shit party

So what's the latest on Docomo? Is he still seeking / fishing in Qufim Island? Has he finally decided to rank up or level another job? Or did he just quit the server?

I had to /blist him. But like a crazy ex-girlfriend... I want to pull up her Instagram and see if she is still a train wreck, just for fun.


I also had to blist him because he bullied my on the server. Yes, Nas can even check the logs.

True Story:
------------------------------

Dunes, SE Beach, I was soloing Crabs while waiting for party and it appears that I was alone. All of a sudden, I see Docomo with his 19 THF/BST soloing the beach. He then proceeds to send me private messages telling me what it's basically his beach and that all the crabs are his.

I ignore.

Docomo then runs to Selbina and switches to his 54 BST/WHM and then purposefully kills all the crabs with his Tiger pet and then proceeds to follow me up and down the beach to out claim me. I told him that I was taking screenshots and videos (cleary lie, I have better things to do) and he told me to go ahead and that the world would see that he was there "first" and the crabs were "his".

Conclusion: He harassed me, he followed me like a stalker, prevented me from claiming any mob (although I was Dragoon at the time and I had to rely on Jump) and justified it by saying "What? I'm not allowed to farm Land Crab Meat?".

So all this to say is that this guy has serious fucking issues. I did not report him at the time because I am a chill guy and I figured this d00d is not happy in real life. Anyways. I thought people should know what type of guy he is and he wonders why he's seeking?

I'd have to say this guy is quite a hypocrite.

Honestly a lot of OP's complaints could be fixed by having fully functional search comments in-game, not the garbage browser section that rarely anyone uses. I do actually remember listing pieces of notable gear in my seacom to distinguish myself apart from others back on retail.

Well, that and ya know just ranking up.



I haven't played in a few months, but have always been a party maker and can say with certainty that I checked /seacom messages via the browser every single time and it definitely makes a difference. Keep filling it out people!

6 parties in a week, seeking on thf? That's pretty good actually.



I got my THF to 75 relatively quickly.



I just,




You know.






Made my own parties.


This is the answer, though I fear it may be too late for OP. He's probably hit a lot of blacklists already... I think I'll log in tonight if only to do so.

This is coming from a thf fanboy.

I have thf at 72, and sam 75. I was rank 1 when i hit 75.

While leveling SAM - i actively avoided inviting thf's into my parties.

So - while leveling thf i created 99.99% of my parties. It's well known thf's dont get many invites, let alone 60+

A 2handed DD on nas - geared relatively the same - will normally outdamage a thf. Say 10% of thf's can put up comparable or hell lets go off the rails and lets say higher dd numbers.

For the 10% of thfs that can put up the same sustained dps of a 2h runs into these issues in an xp pt:

1. For that thf to put out comparatively the same numbers, the tank & other DD must be more attentive and actually stack on monsters.
2. If someone moves from a TA, or the monster turns around you effectively have lost most of your dps.
3. The fights in great xp pt's dont usually last 60sec for a SATA cooldown to come up, so your really only effective on 50% of the pulls.
4. Your dps must limit themselves in the beginning of fights to not pull hate before SATA goes off.

Basically, for a thf to put out comparable damage to a 2h dps in an xp pt your party must change their normal playstyle, be more attentive in how they manage hate and orientate themselves around the mon.

Thf has its purpose on ffxi, its purpose is not to push out crazy dps in low-high level xp party setups. It's just not.

For everyone who says rank doesnt matter? It absolutely does, i'm a scrub.
