Level Cap 90 Or 99

Id rather they just make it 99 asap so they can bring out all new 99 endgame and get back to horizontal expansions - which is what made FFXI so much better than the other MMOs in my opinion.

Lv90 with next year being lv99 and post-abyssea content to support lv99 :o

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/15193/carabosse-duotriolowman-guide/.

That is the hard part.

EDIT: And yes, you can solo a decent amount of Abyssea content, and I'm not only talking Visions.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

No.



You can solo the gimped stuff ; for anything worthwhile you have to form alliance. An yes all this is soloable at 99, who cares. It's not *right now*.

ya pimp...mnk + whm confirmed to duo carabosse and i know Cirein Coin or w/e the T2 orobon is called, can be soloed/duoed

Cool story bro, now show me a masamune that has been soloed or duoed.

abyssea has a reason to be there for af3.
i guess post lvl 90 there will be stuff maybe in WoE or another area where you will get slavage comparable stuff. i.e.: Scorpion harness compared to salvage gear. AF has never been the best gear out there even with the coming of the AF1 back in the days it was never the best gear. embrace for 2hit GK sam and hundred fists all the time.

Do you even play still? All of the masamune NMs are a complete joke. Carabosse can be easily duoed and CC can be soloed with ease.

Oblit

I duod/triod Wamoura NM in attohwa, T3 vnm in attohwa, Bukhis in Vunkerl, CC in Misaraux, all Ironclads except pulverizer (90% sure u can duo/trio that aswell), pretty much every seal NM. Haven't tried other ***yet but I'm pretty sure you can lowman those aswell, corse NM in attohwa, T3 vnm in vunkerl etc. ***is not hard.

This probably why we don't see any masamune around ?

There is some around but only a few 11 to be exact according to ffxiah.

It's not a question of difficulty, all the required NMs are easy to kill, they just need around 30 pops each, which require 3 other NMs to even pop in the first place. It's easy, but it's time consuming. Like the rest of FFXI

Hey bro, I know you're a complete retard and you have no idea how the game works anymore because you're a whiny quitter, so I thought I'd help you out.

Here's a masamune
Here's another masamume
And another masamune...
And there are a lot more.

Now if you would so kindly *** off back to where you're wanted (read: nowhere) and leave us without your senseless drivel, that would be super.

Best. Post. Ever.

So you managed to find 11 masamune after 4 months of abyssea ? Is that supposed to be a proof that abyssea content is actually soloable ? Wanna bet ?

1) Those masamunes have been farmed in big alliances LSs
2) They have been soloed

Choose

3) They can and have been low-manned easily

I have to admit it's pretty annoying when people quit yet still lurk forums and pretend to know the entire "loop" based on hearsay.

I understand coming to post in FFXIAH: Ni or social things but.... really?

I mean i could SWEAR the duo/tripple box post was on the front page for like weeks concerning masamune. :\

w/e.

Gnight.

Okay so, each and every NM on the Masamune trial is at most duoable. But since they didn't solo/duo (for obvious time contraints) that must mean it's not duoable.
Genbu's soloable, but everyone goes in groups to kill it, so it's not soloable. Flawless logic!

I'll give you that... but the true mathletes are a rare sight lately... that or the rise in quitters/whiners is outweighing them.

The funny thing is, if you still post on FFXIAH or any other XI forums talking about how you quit... yet dabble in FFXI updates and stay updated, and then sit and *** about it....

....you never really quit lol, jokes on you. You're just in denial.

It's easier for them to bash any new stuff that comes out.
Than admit that they made a mistake quitting.

You just gave us a link proving that nowhere has SE ever said that cap would be 99 by end of this year lol. Nowhere has there been anything said by SE that December was absolute final level cap and that cap would be 99 in December. SE has said however that final level cap would be level 99 at some point. It blows my mind how many people read that wrong.

A person on the developmental team for ffxi also confirmed at vanafest that there would be at least 1 more expansion coming out sometime next year.

My bet is 99 won't be until summer of next year.

edit. They couldn't increase cap more than 5 levels at once. The game would be shut down for maintenance from glitches for days on end.

Yes I agree it will def be only a 5 lvl increase. They have always only increased it by 5. Why would they change it now?

I guess this is a stupid question but why is the lvl cap only going to 99 and not 100? Just to round it off nicely?

Also as much as I like Abyssea for the insane about of exp you can get, it really has kinda ruined the game a bit for those who aren't high enough to get into there, or who don't have the expansions for what ever reason. I don't know what other servers are like but if you search for anyone seeking 60+ is basically about 3 people at any one time.

And Im glad the new AF3 is out because the stats on those +1 and +2 are amazing especially on WHM, but it does mean dyna and other such events have died off even more then they were before, which is a shame because I quite enjoyed doing those. And what used to be super-duper gear is starting to become useless and very cheap to buy...dusk gloves being an example of a decent piece dropping in worth by about 150-200k, and Ixion Cape is another one thats dropped by about 1mil since these recent updates.

I guess thats what annoys me about this massive level increase in such a short space of time, gear we've all worked hard for over the years when 75 was our max, all that time spent pimping out our jobs with R/E gear, +1 various AF etc has theoretically been for nothing. I personally see it as another way SE have screwed us over slightly.

SE didn't think to make level a numeric datafield and made it an alphanumeric of length 2 so they are restricted to 99.

Also they dont want us having spells,abilities or traits thats available with 50 sub.

Ie Freeze,devine veil and traits most jobs get a tier 3 trait at 50.

Saying that chainspell freeze could be fun lol
