    lvling + limit break question

    i was wondering if anyone knew why everytime i hit a limit break lvl my chances of getting a pt drops REALLY bad. i now have been stuck at 60 for a week now, due to not being able to get a pt. It seems like when i hit 50, 55, and now 60 there are a lot more pld's on or looking for a pt than any of the lvls in between the limit breaks. have any of you seen this or experienced it? i REALLY want to get up to 70 but it seems like i am doing a lot more crafting and farming wile waitingf for a pt than actually being able to be in a pt getting the xp i need. Oh and btw i have to do 5-2 if anyone needs to get it done or help maybe we can set up a pt some time this weekend i would like to hit rank 6 if anyone would like to join me.

    It's because at limit breaks, you have half the people your level doing the quest still.. and half wanting party. That half tends to ask the people that are doing it - get frustrated because they're all doing breaks, and just gives up. So you have too few people making PTs.

    Yup Eni is right....... as much as I hate to say it >.> (BOOOOYA)

    If I was you young man I would try for a static PT and hope for the best.

    yea imagine the lving grid as like an hourglass

    lv1-50 theres parties all over and you search yuhtunga jng and you get like 143 results or something like that

    lv51-70 you've got ppl stuck on papyrus for 3 weeks, you've got ppl trying to do ranks, you've got people camping NM's, you've got people basically having a lot more to do other than exp party. i mean come on at lv 25 you think you're so godly with like 200k gil and then realize noble's is 10mil (or back when i was lv25, never sold like ever) and you're not so hot anymore

    tbh i think lv75 parties are easier to find than like a 68 party. so after you gruel out the limit breaks and get your pre-endgame buyable gear parties shouldnt be too bad

    Then he looks at the information, absorbs it in and moves on. no need to bump it. Nice try at being smart, but you fail.

    Amusingly enough, I looked at this thread yesterday and thought about bumping it for the same reason.

    It was the oldest thread on the BG forums until this morning...

    Well, what was true a year ago is no longer true today. It seems like almost every character on the server has at least one 75 lvl job so limit breaks and AF are no longer obstacles.

    Today, the obstacle is finding 5 other players (with the right jobs) in your level range who are also trying to level up another job to 75. Levels 38-70'ish are pretty tough to make parties. At any given level there might be one or two exp parties on the whole server. If you are that 7th or 13th guy then you are SOL until one of the ppl in pt has to leave. And even if you do get to be a replacement, chances are that the pt disbands not long after you arrive.

    I think it's just as hard to get a job to 75 today, but for different reasons than it was a year ago.
