FFXI party setupFollow

#1 Sep 09 2010 at 6:42 PM Rating: Decent
Been trying to find people to party with and maybe get a grind party going kinda like FFXI had. I'd like to at lest see how it works and if its faster then soloing. I'm 16 GLA and I've solo'd most of the way except for a few duos. If anyone is interested hit me up on here or in game. Xvirus Theunknown.

Doubt I'm going to make the rank as high as you this Beta X, but I would love to try this out too! In all the Alpha/Beta's I have done so far a 'normal' FFXI style party has not really ever happened - but this might be because there were not enough people playing back then or there wasnt the need because people were too busy testing other things or exploring etc.

The most I managed(other than Leve's) was trio's and duo's so it was difficult to test out party dynamics.

I still haven't been in a party yet either, but that is probably because I still haven't gotten myself into a LS.

The WoW mentality of most people ive met sickens me. we get a great PT goin and as soon as nobody has a leve they act like the game is over. Hell X id make a char on your server just for the chance of getting a good ol XI PT goin..... the way its supposed to be. GAWD CATYCLYSM CANT COME FAST ENOUGH so these americanized MMO people can GTFO

Yeah, this is why alot of americans always complained about rarely getting into JP parties in XI. When I asked a couple of my JP Linkshell members why they mostly preferred all JP parties where 2 reasons, ease of language and that alot of english would exp for maybe 30 minutes or for just one level and bail.

I whole-heartedly agree that people should not join exp parties if they plan on leaving early (Real Life emergencies excluded xD)

Yep, I've been going this with my friends who happen to be ex-FFXI buddies.

The battle regimens is really fun to test out too.

The beta is coming to an end, but look for me in retail whenever you want to get a party going.

I managed to get into a few great parties in beta. Tested out a lot of different stuff. From what I've seen there is plenty of room in these parties for more then the normal 6 man and the level gaps don't matter that much as long as you are able to do something. I even had a level 10 THM as a healer in a party of mainly level 18+ people. He said he was getting pretty decent rank xp(150+) and good phy xp(250+).

No more of that "we don't need anymore melees or what we need another healer for" talk like that. I think it is even better to have an extra tank or healer, since all the jobs can also do damage.

I still plan to roll gladiator in release if you guys are looking for a tank or off tank/damage dealer hit me up. First few days I'll be leveling my other jobs for abilities though. I need most of them to lv 10.
