there ya go lol bad joke my friend did the ***to me, was all OMG man go check this ***out samurai getting sekkanoki 2 and tp regain trait. and that.... They are!!!
I'm also betting on stoneskin spikes for rdm. So whenever you get hit for dmg greater then 0 they put up stoneskin based on your stats when you took the dmg automatically. It will have a duration similar to normal spikes spells!!!
Also haste II and refresh II. And a phalanx II that is actually better than phalanx.
dunno why casting phalanx2 onyourself with composure up doesnt extend duration, I'd use it over phalanx 1 just for the 15 minute duration lol

damn i wonder if peeps wanted to make petition against increase lvl 50->75.
imagine FF11 with capped lvl 50 if they succeded.
We spent like 5 or 6 years with lvl 75...i think it's now time to make the revolution about that :3
neway nothing prevent u from staying 75 after the lvl cap increase :D

I dont see what all the fuss is about.If you dont want to go beyond 75 dont there really is nothing stopping you.
Just like there is nothing to say you have to do merits or endgame.
But we now have a choice.Also i really dont think all the endgame gear will be outdated for a while.
By the looks of it i think we will be able to choose augments for it with the new system.We will probably see the new engame gear that overtakes it around 90-99

Exactly.
It's all on how you play and if you want to go beyond 75.
I hate ppl that are so negative and whine..open your eyes, try something new...

I haven't played FFXI since Dec due to uni etc and so I've missed the whole announcement of lvl 99 etc. Can't find it either so someone chuck me the link?
I will admit I'm not keen on the lvl 99 idea, it was depressing enough getting my WHM to 75, I don't want to have to lvl it to 99... same goes with BLM. How I hate that job lol.
But from what I've read while scanning this topic, do you have to buy something for the update to count or does it just happen like all the others normally do? Because it would be good if you could choose whether you wanted to lvl up or not. I'm guessing there will be other limit breaks or is it just straight to 99?
Also people have been saying that they will be able to use subjob abilities say when your lvl 90, you can use the lvl 45 spells or w/e. Have SE actually said this will be the case or do you reckon they will just shift everything around so certain jobs get the more powerful spells/abilities later on to prevent characters from becoming too strong?
I'm trying to be open minded about this as FFXI has reached a certain lvl of boringness because once you get to 75, its just merits and endgame if you so wish. But at the same time, I don't want jobs to be 99, 75 is a good number. Make it 80 if they have to change it but I think this will push a lot of people towards the quit button. But then maybe thats the idea? Maybe they don't want us to play FFXI any more because 14 is coming out?
Thats another thing, whats going to happen to merits? Knowing my luck all this got covered in the update when it was announced but I haven't read it. I appear to have written quite a lot so I'll stop lol.

You can assume anyone who's interested in a way to "prevent the level cap increase" isn't going to be a fan of the idea. Don't assume a meager 12k replies is going to represent the, what, 2mil people playing that game? that's like 0.6% of the game's population.
Some people are going to like it, some are going to hate it. If you're the latter, stop playing. When SE decides the increase in levels is goign to break the game, they've already said they'll stop then and there.
Besides, 14 will be here soon enough, you can all hop ship then!

I'm all for the lvl cap raise. This game has dug itself into a hole over the years because of not raising the cap. For years its been nothing but content retreads and situational gear sidegrades. IMO the last real original content with legit gear upgrades was Salvage. The game needs this, it needs to grow and evolve if it has any chance staying alive after FFXIV hits.
The only ppl I can see being against this are the hyper elitist end gamers who feel their status is threatened by this. Makes me wish I was still in my old HNM LS so I could of seen the reactions from just such ppl.

Im really amused by the amount of people saying SE has broken the game. From what ive read SE hasnt mentioned where the level increase will be in effect, I can only speculate but it would make sense if the cap only increased when you were in the new add on areas

You in fact are correct, the bulk of the bitchers are the ones who think their ***don't stink and are the best at whatever.
HNMLS's aren't going to survive, everyone has their opinion on new EG content, capping certain areas, and raising old hnm levels and such but they all fail lmao. Not once did SE ever say any of those things are going to go down period, best they actually said was everything will be able to be done by a party or less opening full game content to everyone. (Not just the hnmls's) The monopolization of such groups is on life support and SE IS pulling the plug.
People are just lazy is what's the issue is, they don't want to xp anymore in a game that requires you to....xp. >.>
Gear beng useless ect ect i doubt it, new augment system will bring life to older gear, it isnt going to be worthless.
Everyone needs to just man up and do it and quit whinning over it cause no one cares. As one person said already in this thread, 300 don't like it but is still 20000 that does, -300 isnt gonna be end of the game so don't like it quit, game will still go on and means more gear for me. If anyone recalls SE wants this game to co-exist with FFXIV too, they arent going to let that release kill the game either.

Wanted to read something while waiting to leave my house. This made me upset.
1. Actually read what the post is about
2. Do not talk about fight club.
3. If you're posting opinion stop pretending like you're the right one
4. It's not an online petition, it's a function SE has offered on their site since FFXI came out
5. If you actually read or researched their updates the level increase is for all areas because "its about time to make fighting high end NMs easier"
6. My opinion: People think the game will break because any idiot who paid 150k to astral burn to 99 can buy an untraceable bot and duo Fafnir with his level 87 buddy. Top end armor becomes mediocre, and people who thought they finished jobs for their linkshells have to once again work at augmenting armor and finding something better to equip. Crafters will probably be happy with new recipes, and there will probably be an inflation for the new armor during the first X # of months after the increase.
7. Eventually most people will settle down and assimilate into the new FFXI social system.
8. Don't flame. I know sophisticated thought requires effort, so take your hand off your *** and put the effort into language instead of your sock.

How do you know this is refering to current HNM and not new HNM in the add on areas? Which would make more sense...more HNM faster pop rates etc
Dont worry im not flameing, we have limited information to go on so all we can do is speculate and guess
I'm going to start out by stating that if you don't like this idea, then don't even bother reading past what I have to say, and don't bother flaming me either. I'm merely making a suggestion and possibly solving this upcoming issue.
Judging by the 12,000+ views at this point on the "Level cap 99" topic, as well as the negative feedback in post replies, we can all assume that everyone is about as equally upset with this issue as the next. This is unquestionably one of the lowest things that Square Enix could do at this point.
So how do you fix it? Well, sitting on ffxiah.com forums and complaining with 300 other people is not going to solve your issue, I assure it. Square Enix employees are not paid to read these forums. However, they ARE paid to read the feedback. Now, I know this seems silly. Why would they read your feedback? Why would it matter to them at this point? XIV is coming out soon, why should I bother? Well, if you have any respect for this game, or the amount of time that you've put in to this game, perfecting your characters, testing out strategies, or parsing out numbers to find what's best in what situation, then you'd take 10 minutes out of your busy schedule and write a letter of feedback to Square Enix.
http://support.na.square-enix.com/contacttop.php?id=20&la=1
The link above is the North American link to the "Contact Us" page on playonline.com. If you don't trust copy-pasting this into your browser, you can find the same page by going to playonline.com > Service and Support > Contact (It's on the upper-right hand corner of the page) > Feedback.
There are a number of things to remember when writing constructive feedback. I think I speak for everyone when I say that it's not every day that I leave feedback to anything. Here's a few tips on how to get your voice heard, while remaining respectful, and courteous in your feedback:
*Be assertive, but don't be rude. Square Enix does not want to hear ugly remarks.
*Get to the point. Don't make a wall of text for them to read. State what you have to say, and send it.
*Make your statement clear and bold. Make sure that they know what you are saying.
*Make sure that they understand that you mean BUSINESS. If you think that what you say may not be enough, tell them that this sort of behavior is not something that you want to see in future FF games.
Perhaps if the 12,000 people who viewed the "Level cap 99" topic are to submit a feedback, stating that they do not like the idea, they may just revoke it. While you may think that the feedback thing is a joke, it's not. Believe it or not, Square Enix employees are paid to do their job, so they will see what you have to say. It even says in a subtitle: "While we value your feedback and review each submission, we do not provide responses to these types of contacts. Thank you for your submission." You don't need a reply, just make sure that you send something.
When they see a healthy amount of dislike on this, they may just change their mind. ;)
Again, thank you all who actually do this. And to those who are about to flame me in a post, grow up, please.
