New or Returning Players Discussion 2: SoA Homeless Veterans Edition

[fantasticdan]

I don't think they changed AF quests at all. Pretty much everyone stopped leveling the normal way 30+ after abyssea came out.

[Taruina]

Is there any way to get gearswap or any current form of FFXI to recognize an input such as "//c1 taruina" as "/ma "cure" Taruina"; which is the shorthand for spells and abilities that spellcast allowed?
It's really making returning to the game (even for casual fun) inaccessible as fuck.

Shortcuts addon.

Shortcuts addon.

thank you!

[Anoat]

Is there any shortcut these days for KI in Abyssea? I'm debating doing Ochain or something but the 75 Azdaja horns just seem so insanely annoying. Fiddling with weapons to proc for lower KIs on like 3 monsters for every pop will take for-fucking-ever.

If you have the pitchfork item from the Halloween event, and the Ark Angel Scythe, NIN/WAR will have access to all of the red !! procs except for greatsword.

I'm coming back for nostagias. Are there still working fishing bots? If so, PM me.

[fantasticdan]

There are, but fishing is pretty worthless nowadays.

[Zetanio]

Fishing is never worthless.

Hak prices got nerfed a few months ago, better money elsewhere.

None of this changes anything.

Question, what is the nostalgia to be had in fish botting? Aren't you having that same experience every day?

[dasva]

Yeah if you want gil nuking reives in sparks gil will be much better than Haks unless you got this real craving to watch a bot catch fish

That will get you banned quick

[Zetanio]

None of the fish bots work anyway. Carry on.

[fantasticdan]

There is still at least one fishbot that works, but there is really no reason to bother,

unless you got this real craving to watch a bot catch fish

You could make significantly more gil in the time it takes to even set your character up to fish daily by doing practically anything else. If you really want to gamble your account botting for gil, there are certainly much better avenues.

That will get you banned quick

Idk, as of a week ago, sylph still had all the same turds botting the same reives in the same zones. The only things I noticed get hit by that alleged ban-wave were 2 rala bots.

[Zetanio]

I have no idea how to make gil in this game anymore. It's been a long time. I'm mostly running around dying to mission mobs with my underleveled nin sub.

[Rehn]

This seems appropriate since RQT is not allowed: what is koga sam 4 step?

[Sechs]

Helping some super noob friends levelling up 1-30 (maybe even more).
Anybody had to do that recently and can suggest me how to maximize efficiency?
For instance: should I powerlevel them from outside the party as they use the bunch of trust they have? Should I join their party, level sync and use the large selection of trusts I have?
Also: which zones/GoV/FoV do you suggest to follow?

[Damane]

1-10 normal starter zone la theine @ 12 hit valkurm bunnys @ proceed to gusgen mines for repeatable gov. plvl from outside would be best.
also make them use nuker trusts, they are excellent for low lvls while you heal pt from outside.

[Sechs]

Allright I'll do that. Valkurm bunnies are in the La Theine entrance right? I seem to recall a FoV there.
