As for Limbus, it's boring repetitive and too easy; You can do it in auto-nuke mode basically. Reward are good true;

Dynamis is a good entertainment but it's too long. Dreamlands are better.

I prefer salvage though, due to it presenting some challenge, even if you are an expert of salvage. The randomness of cells is part of the challenge.

As for "champain" and "campagne" discussion... The JP text certainly doesn't refer to "champaign" but to "campagne" whcih can either mean countryside or campaign ( military campaign in this case).

One thing that might save this from the early get go is attacks on all three cities at the same time. Dividing people up should help limit the lag, then again depending on restrictions all the lowbies who don't have Al Zahbi access are gonna be in on the action.

i don't hate Besieged but i don't really do it, if Campaign is like Besieged which i think it will be, i'll probably try it a few times and never touch it again. don't really have a problem with that as i'm sure it'll appeal to a lot of other people still.

I'm really enjoying how FFXI is becoming as it matures. I hate XPing, I've never done Salvage or Limbus and have no interest in either, I've done Dynamis once and have little interest in doing it again, I've never camped a HNM. Yet am I bored? Anything but! Besieged, the Pit, crafting, chocobo digging, helping friends, chatting, there's still tons for me to do!

It's really becoming (nearly) something for everyone.

That would be champagne, the drink; not campagne, the countryside.

Just for fun, I will add further confusion to this!

Champagne is a countryside district in France! Its where all the Champagne is made.

La Campagne de Champagne

And a company from the Champagne countryside would be une compagnie de la campagne champagnoise. I'm growing convinced that it's something boring like "company", and at this point we're just involved in an anglo-franco-japanese linguistic circle-jerk.

This is the hottest thing anyone has ever said to me (on these forums.)

Company does seem the most realistic (ex: Company of Soldiers.) Champagne being the most random name for a war time event, although they did name the countrside outside of Jeuno the Sauromugue Champaign, but I guess that might be another example of the French word for countryside being lost in translation. Countryside is slightly possible as the events are in the Vana'diel countryside.

I don't know about you, but I fucking did salvage prebox with 2k AP entry fee, and without half the information we have now, and we still progressed through it greatly, managing to kill all 4 bosses which was unheard of.

That's how it was for my group! :D

My group still killed all 4 bosses prebox/cell drop boost, and got some completed armor pieces.

Doesn't change that the fact you're limited to like few NM and have to choose between NM run and boss run on non bhaflau zone. The 2000 AP entry fee on top of that makes it far from the "zomg best fucking event ever" that it is now, especially before the implementation of RvB and FL assaults with huge AP payout.

Let's just face it, SE's horrible at getting shit right the first time, I think assaults and nyzul are the only event out of ToAU that isn't a complete failure at start, even then some of them is still annoying and nyzul on some part dissapointed the populace since hype doesn't match the actual drop. Maybe they'll break the streak, but I'm just stating their track record of 3 events with horrible implementation on the recent year. If we want to go further back, there is EF and Garrison, when was the last time any of you do those? As far as overhyped event with little to no interest in the end, I'm sure everyone is gambling all their lifesaving away in Chocobo Circuit, I'm just waiting for them to remove the limitation of entering and exiting from the same entry so people would actually use the zone.

Awesome D:

Btw.. i searched Campagnie on google and got a whole bunch of french things xD so it is a word... but french

Hmmm Campagnie isn't a french word.

It seems to be a mispelling of the English word campaign, or the the French word campagne (countryside).

Not a misspelling, a transliteration. Japanese does not have a way to represent Campagne directly, and the Japanese reading is actually Canpanie (Cannes-pun-e-eh).

Yeah i searched "Campagne" w/o the eye

but the more i think of it its probably Campaign

[spooky]

Wahh Wahhhhhh Waaahhhhhhhh

lolnoob just go salvage its ez

I AM ANGRY TWAT

It's ok, I'm an even bigger twat!

What's your problem Shuemue? Not getting any?

[Cautery]

Oh wow! Dynamis, Limbus, Salvage, Einherjar, Sky, Sea and HNM and now Campagnie! Hell, they want us play 24h/day! And the week of a FFXI player should have 10 days, not 7!

In this thread, Englishmen insult eachother. Not wanting to feel left out, you're both cunts and I don't do Salvage.

I don't belive he is English; if he is, he's probably a Chav.

I wasn't aware that being English was such a lofty aspiration. For a country that's produced such epic contributions to the world's culture as David Beckham and Katie Price, the standards for being English are sufficiently low that anyone, even you, can pass muster.

Edit: Sup derail. So about that wine/country/campaign/company thing...

Don't forget Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse. I don't know a single song that either one of them did, all I know is that they are both spectacular messes.

Din't she almost OD? I heard that she was huffing some with Pete, wich wouldn't surprise me.

Oh, let's not forget the awesomeness of release besieged, where people just raped all the incoming mobs before they even reach the city, or that dark period between implementation of level 8 besieged and item resupply patch where the astral candenscence gets fucking stolen by the 2nd salvo of level 8 unless you play in siren/lakshmi.

hey it would be easier to get the mobs out of the hall if nin/brd wasnt gimped >.> and you can take afew of lamia #2's AoE barrages with seigan and third eye

The British Empire: Fucking up world politics on a grand scale since 1608.

Awesome, I've segued from mocking you to mocking our nation's culture to despairing of the legacy of imperial conquest in a mere 3 posts.

Whenever somebody asks why N. Americans are so arrogant, i always point towards Britain.
