This is a story all about how,
My game got flipped turned upside down.
And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there.
Tell you how I became a new 14 player.

In dusty ol Bastok, I was born and raised,
In Valkurm Dunes spendin most of my days,
Vokin' and Curin' and Bashin' all cool
All killin' some gobbies with my ninja tools,
When a couple of Devs, who were actin' all lame,
Started making trouble all up in my game.
Gave us twenny four mo' levels to grow our e-peen,
And I said 'I'm giving up and movin to Fourteen!'

I went to get the game, and when I got near,
The graphics looked fresh and had new music to hear.
If anything I'd say there're still cool guys at Square,
But I thought 'Nah forget it, log on and kill Hares.'

I played until about seven or eight,
I said to Eleven, '*** off, see ya later.'
Took a look at the region, of the new game,
And thought to myself, 'Aw ***, it's the same.'

*Edited for typos.

Not sure if this has been said but what if you were capped at 75 in all the areas that exist now and only in the new areas you can be 76+. That way they can add new insanly tough HNMs with out making stuff like Faf and Kirin soloable or having to adjust their levels. It would give all the people who have all the uber leet gear something new to aim for while making current HNMs more accessable to the masses. Also no one would /cry about the gear they worked so hard for, being obsolete. And no one would feel obligated to level all their 75s to 99, only if they wanted to participate in the new content. It's just a thought.

lol

Nice.

How long you think this guys ([uurl=http://www.ffxiah.com/player.php?id=370317]Papy[/url]) will take to hit job99x20? :p

As I understand it, lv74 no merits as usual, lv75-98 meritsV1, lv99 meritsV2 and meritsV1 are active?

Only problem with that is what's the point in getting awesome new gear you can only use in the new zones? That would essentially be getting great gear just to get gear to get that gear; kind of pointless.

If we keep the curent zone to a 75cap you'll need so many place in mog house ^^;
And about the /sub like WHM99/RDM49 having refresh and convert, I think they'll lock refresh and convert cause that's almost the only reason why RDM is so usefull (except enfeebling magic)
They might lock the spells/ja that would make some job worthless

They had a screenshot of a WHM converting.

i'd be sad if they locked refresh and convert. make my smn and whm very ubber? but i see your point and have to agree they would lock something like that but on the other hand, blm and rdm would have repose as a light base sleep, no? so that might be one of the perks for mages instead of having the need for BRD for a light base sleep.

No Link, that bites ><

FTW! but too bad its not official. It could be just like another Banishga 3 back in the 04 ffxi walkthrough

It is funny how people don't read things fully. Do You honestly think they will let all jobs have refresh and convert. They made it lvl 40+ for a reason and will more ten likely keep it that way. And Yes I know SE is known for some *** ups but I think they are going to make some abilitys main job only in in a way


From the Level Cap Considerations page:

"We are aware that players will inevitably feel concern over how in-game elements such as support jobs, experience camps, and merit points will be affected by this change. We would like to take a moment to explain the measures that are in the pipes to preserve game balance.

Support job abilities that are not expected to steal the limelight from main jobs as a result of the level cap increase will be allowed to come into play. Furthermore, there are plans to tweak certain job abilities, job traits, and magic spells on an ongoing basis in order to further accentuate the uniqueness of each job when used in a main role, as well as its versatility when playing a supporting role.

New camping grounds are scheduled to be added to cater to the anticipated rise in demand for experience parties. Furthermore, the redistribution of monsters in existing areas is also under consideration.

An increase in maximum upgrades is being considered for existing merit point skills and attributes. Preparations are also under way for the introduction of a new type of merit point for players who have reached the new level 99 summit.

I am sure ill get some hate for this

Enmity+100 and everyone true sight and you're in dead center of the new zone "La la la i don't wanna read this"

XD j/k of course.

I honestly think they need to add a call moogle feature that makes your moogle come out and bring you stuff from your mog house. Like a Moogle Linkshell maybe.

lol screw it im still soloing faf/nid on bst damnit LOL

LMAO

I'm really curious about two things:

What new buffs will BARD get? Matt/Macc/Mdef? Ballad III? Horde Lullaby/ Foe Lullaby II? EXP+ song? PDT/MDT minus songs?

Where do I get METEOR?!?!?!?! I really hope it's not like it was with raiseIII where it drops only from a HLNM.

It'll run something along the basis of how COR and BRD subs works, notice you can only use 1 roll or song when subbed so yea it's expected, but the feature will still be there, even if refresh as a sub only adds 1 tic, thats a hell of a f#@$%^ing tic =)

You also have to consider... they are making new zones, new HNMs new challenges that will require the ability of having some of these 99 jobs ofcourse example if they make refresh and or haste 2, ballad na dor march 3, so on so forth. Maybe at this point in time SMN/RDM with convert and its own Refresh one wont be as uber as you think... when the mob takes for F@#$ing ever to die ^^

Maybe convert when /RDM will work on a 2:1 HP:MP ratio or something?

I love how they're going to be making the support jobs more useful, i.e PUP, SCH, and SMN..With this whole level cap 99 business SCH might get Haste! OH SHI-

I'm still confused on what they will do with merits. Do you keep the enhancements and just start leveling from that point? Can you choose to finish merit capping for your own individuality?...convert merits back to limit (experience) points? Other than renewing interest from veterans that have faded away, I really not sure what they are hoping to accomplish. I mean can you imagine a 99 Bst/49 whm or 49 nin...That would be off the charts...'Yeah I think I'll go solo Guivre, I need to make some quick gil"

In some ways the idea is intriguing, in some ways I don't like it at all

I wanna see 5k DMg Ws's on colibri!
