CoP In The Lockout

I have seen about 8 billion posts like this but they're too old so here we go again.

Odin as everyone knows is locked out - meaning it's getting harder and harder to get anything done here no new blood no fresh air etc.
I know a few scattered people around are stuck in weird places in CoP/ZM and ToAU. I am opening this thread in hopes enough of Odin posts in it to get some of this done if not all of it. The days of shouting for them is almost gone so if you meet the following post here to see if others like yourself can get these completed.

1. Do you have a flexible weekend schedule.
2. Are you willing to follow someone elses lead.
3. Do your game events allow you hours of free time or will your LS allow you to be free for the purpose of CoP/ZM/ToAU
4. Are you dedicated enough to deal with trial error and failure. (Sometimes serious failure hey, it happens)
5. Are you on Odin.

I am personally starting a CoP static for anyone who wants to go with them otherwise this can be a thread anyone can use to create their own in their own time zones/languages etc.
Best of luck to all you can contact me in ffxi if you like, but the forum would likely be better unless you intend to join my group personally. Best of luck and see you in FFXI ~Mari

We have the same problem in Bahamut. My recent LS helped me get up to sky in two days, but CoP? I'm stuck at Vahzl, almost everyone I know is stuck at Ouryu...Ugh. I don't care about RMT anymore, new people will stimulate our economies.

I agree completely but with Odin it was populace problems absolute lock out for us =/

I would assume Bahamut is the same. RMT was also a 'major' problem, too. if it was just a populace problem, they could have brought back other servers or spread people across others.

Sucks to be you two guys then.

Not really Korpg, I think the benefits far outweigh the negatives.

What benefits?

We're practically clear of RMT.
When you go to claim some NM, you're competing against real players.
The economy is stable and you don't have people manipulating AH (Check the Odin CPI).
When certain people of dislike leave the server they can't come back.

gtg home i'll add to this later

You guys are damn lucky. Bahamut still has all of those problems! And instead of keeping people out, its more like we're trapped in. Figuratively speaking.

._. qft

she is right on that point no denying it it is more stable but it's stagnant (;_;) making anything lower mission wise difficult if you're not near the end

I just want to help the randoms who are stuck in weird places in them I hope I can lend a hand anyway
I just miss the days in east ranfaure crafting staves and poles for noobs XD I'm a goof I know ._.
oh well if I can give back I will still anyone interested leave a post here

'eh we still have noobs, they're just very few and far between, there are still lots of people to help on the server

Also don't forget that we've been closed for a long time now where Bahamut is only recently closed.

A lot has changed in Odin. If you know any one needing CoP please direct them here or to me in FFXI

Sorry my personal health problems have no place in a forum - EDITED to remove /idiot moment

/ ready! just /tell

Short sweet to the point I guess that is why your name is sword huh?

bump* to give it a bit longer shelf life than the last 80 million like it

I still need CoP and ToAU. It'd be nice to do these missions regularly since I only make progress every 1-2 months XD. I tried making a CoP static with LS friends and we started from the very beginning but half of them left the shell/game. we stopped at 4-2 (I myself am on 4-3, lulz). as for ToAU I am stuck on "The Black Coffin"

Tell anyone you know who wants it to sign the page here with their interest, if you want to join the group I am leading you need only send me a /tell in ffxi if you want to make your own send as many people as you can. These threads aren't popular on ffxiah so I have to watch it alot to keep it on the top at least long enough to give it a fair life. Thanks for the bump and the post. ~ Mari

Its on all servers. Seems not even the newcommers to the game try for CoP. Ive started at the prommies 2x with a static and they both died before i can even get to the missions I need. Im on the Diablo fight. Its worth the effort. I dream of the rajas ring and ethereal earring, lol. Theres so many people out there that need CoP but get burned out on the missions. They are slow going and a pain sometimes, lol. Seeing how you are on a closed server, i can only see one way of trying to do it. Start /sh for CoP missions and see where everyone is at, then try and get a static going from the lowest persons mission. Just get some trustworthy people, lol.

Im on Ouryu :X

@ OP

Random shouts in WG is few to almost none for CoP on Valefor. Most of the "New" people end up in a LS that runs them through pretty much as soon as they get a 75 job. Wish that was the case for me, but I've been stuck on Ouryu for years now.

Wish I could help my server is locked out =/ maybe you can shout out in valefor to look at this post might grab some help that way

otherwise sorry to hear that >.<

Let's open this to all servers to seek members, go to your Whitegate's in your servers and tell them to look it up it'll shock you how well that works everyone loves this website.

Best of luck and I hope this stays on the fore front long enough to get a few <insert ring of choice here> out there on the servers for ppl who otherwise wouldn't pull it off.

Really the biggest problem is trying to be on at the same time as the people that are willing to help. For most of the people that have done it, they don't want to got back a few mission to help others that would semi-static when they all get to the same mission. I'm sure it's like that on other servers too.

My LS is way ahead of me, so I'm working on establishing my own semi-static. In the mean time I'm farming recollections and whatnot needed. I don't think I should ask for help if I'm not even ready to be helped.

Yup, i feel your pain.

I can't speak for an entire server only for myself - if you need help find me, ifI can't help chances are I can find someone who will.

(If you were on my server)

I would advise shouting tbh, you would be surprised how many people on odin still haven't finished or even started for that matter.
I know a few people on or around chapter 5, so i'll direct them to you or this site later when im back from work.

But im confused as you already have done 95% of cop already -.-

This isn't for me I completed the CoP story and Zm... (minus Bahamut I'll do it someday not really caring at this point) This is for the fact Odin is locked, and getting help on alot this can sometimes feel impossible. So I am lending a hand. I wouldn't call bahamut 5% of CoP more like... an extra slap around from CoP and ZM to remind you how far you came to complete them. Thanks for sending anyone here that you can this is only to lend a hand ~ Mari

EDIT:
I remember what it's called now, it's the last verse when you complete CoP and ZM (their final missions) you can do the Bahamut V1 starter quest and when it's done you are on the last verse on CoP and ZM in your mission log. Haven't done it but will get to it. A question to whoever reads this is that an extra bit at the end of CoP/ZM or is it actually a part that seals them both? No clue haven't done it.

PS everyone please read the first page :)

EDIT #2
Please forgive me if I sounded rude I swear I don't mean to no sleep in 20+ hours (;_;)

the last quests tying RoZ and CoP together are Storms of Fate (Bv1), Shadows of the Departed (three promy climb), and Apocalypse Nigh. once those are all completed, you will get The Last Verse in your mission logs.

Helpful bump. ^^
