    FFXI is too easy? No more skill? Read on for more info...

    Just quoting on some HNMLSs all over different servers quoting that everything is becoming a total joke to beat in terms of skill and stating that the entire "noob" population of FFXI can beat anything in the game now. I took a bit offense to this remark as to saying any player is capable of beating everything. First thing I notice is all the people making this quote of beating everything are doing it with 18 people or so. So if a group of 6 can beat let's say Glavoid or Rani (without brews of course, I don't count that as a fair play item), that means it's childs play or brainless? I do most events with 6-8 people and pretty much take about 80% of the end game content but it does require a lot of dedication and focus to do HNMs with so few. Granted the lvl cap has made things easier but I do not believe that because you can beat HNMs with a few people doesn't mean it's less skilled. More people = less skilled due to that fact you can just throw bodies at the NM till the cows come home until it dies. Less people = more margin of error and losing a member can be quite pivotal which imo merits more skilled and more focused. Also FFXI imo has been the greatest it has ever been. The way it used to be was extremely biased and less fair. Is it because these LSs cannot monopolize all HNMs that means things are worse cause it's not only in their favor? Feel free to reply to this post. I know this is a rant but I had to share my thoughts as hearing this over and over from end game LSs is getting a bit annoying and I wanted to speak my voice. Thanks for listening.

    The entire "noob" population can and always could beat anything in FFXI given the numbers and appropriate situation. FFXI is easy, out ->.
    edit: besides AV pre-alexander.

    Then why did you bother to enter & reply ?

    You don't make sense.

    To the OP , FFXI players had skill beore to have now ?! like someone said before , all it needed the game itself ; controller ; few brain cells with intact minimal function ; & basic life supplies of food/drinks to keep you nourished/hydrated while playing.

    It's a game, not rocket science.

    Most of these people dropped out of high school to play FFXI all day long so anything that resembles schoolwork is just a tedious task.

    6-8 people isn't a "few". It's a lot. And you've must have never farmed for an empyrean gaxe or dagger cos it is a pretty mindless mob. It doesn't take a genius to know to turn when it does a TP move and stun gorge/disgorge.

    They are in a fully committed paragraph relationship (ie. a one-paragraph man)
