    So it -IS- possible to hit physical surplus. I assume that's SE's way of saying: "look, son. You're playing too much. Go outside."

    Well there may be some merit to it anyhow. Even the haijins need a healthy break @.@

    For those of you at like 15+ are you still using the starting weapon or did you find an upgrade somewhere?

    I am 7 pug/10phy and was looking to craft my own weapon but I need like a combination of like 30 craft levels+ to make it and I haven't found anyone selling them so whats did you guys do?

    I didn't want to start a new thread in Tech, so I figured I could just ask it here.

    Anyone else having issues with doors opening? Specifically the Ul'dah ones around the adventurer's guild. Sometimes there's a 20 second delay after my character approaches them before they open. Usually I can just wait until someone else walks by and that causes them to open, but sometimes their character just goes through the door and I'm still stuck behind.

    The doors actually stay closed, it's not just the graphics (I can't go through them).

    Not sure if it's a problem on my end or theirs, because I had a couple instances of missing textures in Ul'dah at some point too.

    Never had any of these things happen in the betas, if it matters.

    Couple questions: Did they add/change any pieces of gear so that they now favor Lancer (specifically body) our are they still stuck wearing their starting body piece to level 20 because its the only piece that benefits them defensively? Also, is there stuff to do? By this I mean, in beta I didn't have the motivation to even log on much because for one, data was going to be wiped anyway, but two, all there was to do was either grind or do leves of some sort. Did they add like side quests or missions or something besides the main quest you get every 10 levels? I know I started FFXI after it had been out a few years and I don't know exactly what it was like day one, but is there any sense of purpose in the retail as of yet? Hopefully you understand what I'm getting at lol

    How does offering gil for an item in my bazaar work? If I pick three of something for 500 gil, am I wanting three for 500 or three for 1500? Is there any way to look for more than what I already have of something (i.e. I have one but want to offer gil for up to 30)?

    They really need to implement a search or category system for this feature, so you can set yourself to buying things you don't already have.

    SephYuyX:

    In regards to your question about redoing a D/Ced Leve, this is what happened when I D/Ced during the tutorial leve. I tried activating it at the Aetherite immediately, but was told I had no leves. So I went back to the Leve issuer, and tried to retake the leve quest, but noticed the reward was much worse than what I had. (69 gil vs. 1000 gil) I exited out, checked my journal, and the leve was showing up as though I hadn't done it yet. I then proceeded back to the Aetherite and did the leve getting my original reward of 1,000 gil.

    I would assume you need to simply talk to the leve issuer to have it added back to your log. Any EXP/Class Skill is rolled back to what it was before you did the leve though (Or possibly just subtracted from your current total, I could not confirm since I did it immediately.) Also, this was with the Tutorial Leve you receive during the first mission. If this method does not work for you, then it may just be specific to that first leve.

    On another note, has any one confirmed approximate class level where Surplus kicks in? I see Physical is 23.

    It's been reported by a number of people that it's been kicking in at around Rank ~17.

    Thanks! My gladiator is level 16 and I told myself I wouldn't change jobs until I hit Surplus. I mean, Gladiator's fun and all, but it gets grating when it's the only job you're playing. Just gotta make it a little further...

    I am also at a standstill with class skill. As someone stated physical is less important (besides I gain exp fine its skill that I am having issues with)
    I am Conj rank 11 and I went to Camp Emerald Moss to do some leves. I joined a big party of 5-7 people and did some leves with them. The skill gains was horrible we did about 4 leves and while I did get good skillups (about 100-200 a skillup) I got them far to infrequently, This of course was due to my party killing the mobs too quickly.

    Now after my party I wanted to save a couple leves for me to solo with, assuming I would get tons more class skill as solo. This was not the case. I did 3 leves solo and got maybe... 1k skill total. I did the leves at a 2 star rating, they were challenging enough, I even died when the mole poped 4 other moles and they all gang raped me. But all in all the leves werent extremly difficult. But they were also challenging enough.

    My point is, solo grinding sucks, leves for me suck, leves in a group sucks. What the hell am I suppose to do? The fact that people got to rank 15+ is astonishing. I MUST be doing something wrong because I dont get it. I dont get skill from anything.

    How do you all level up?
