Hi,
Today while in Garlaige Citadel I met a certain BG member who was on their level 33 Ninja exping. The individual in question had nothing in neck or back slot, lvl 16 bone mittens in hand, beetle armor in other slots, lvl 14 Amber vit+1 rings, and 2 NQ hibaris. It has essentially been accepted since the dawn of time that Ninja is among the most gil-intensive jobs in FFXI, if played well . A good Ninja, especially one who already has a lvl 75 job, can be expected to have an Emperor Hairpin, Leaping Boots, Nomad's Mantle and other such quality equips. I am sure people will have contrasting views on what constitutes a gimp but in my opinion what I saw easily fulfilled the criteria.
I have seen BG members levelling various jobs and on pretty much every time I see them they have been impeccably equipped, upholding the good name of the LS. This is the first time I have seen one look so gimp. As for the identity of the person? Here's a clue: "Ancient type of Tree". Think about it :wink: I can only assume he is unaware of the set-in-stone etiquette of FFXI and seemingly has the viewpoint of "I have a lvl 75 job, so I'll just be a gimp when I level others". Sure made me chuckle :D
