All Worlds Maintenance (Aug. 3)

- The amount of items that can be gathered from each gardening attempt are limited to 1 for any characters that were created less than 90 days previous.

Ouch, I feel sorry for anyone that decided to do gardening after today.

Ouch, I feel sorry for anyone that decided to do gardening after today.

I think you mean "for anyone with less than 90 days on their account, who planted stuff before the update and will be harvesting after the update."

Sucks for them but all they have to do is wait out the 90 days.

This will be a nice kidney punch to RMT who were gardening on trial accounts.

Ouch, I feel sorry for anyone that decided to do gardening after today.

If I read and understood it carefully, this only affects the following:

- New players who just started playing FFXI and attempted to garden within 90 days

- Older players who created new mule(s) and started gardening on them, whereby the length of time in-between gardening attempts and first day it was created was 90 days.

This won't affect players with mules who already have been gardening on their mules for over 90 days.

Oh my bad, sounded like they ment any character created after today has to wait 90 days for a good harvest.

lol that be epic that be close to the real thing. but ya its for new accounts, you have to wait 90days before you can garden anything good.

Now that's more like it SE. Let's see more fixes like THIS, less automatic bans, and less nerfing the sell to npc price of black ink.

Wait so this will effect a new account that I got last month for gardening? Or no?

[Thalandor46]

So Union messages still don't funtion properly, and I still can't see available inventory space from the View House menu?

Kudos for gardening though, definitely.

Yes, if you just started playing a month ago (~30 days) and created that character, you won't be able to garden more than 1 item until another 60 days has passed-- according to this update.

Well balls...is that for the char or 1 item per pot? Cause if per pot wont hurt that account to bad cause was using it for cuttings into saps...

[bungiefan]

One single item per harvest of a pot, no stacks of items or such. You can still run 10 pots, but you won't get anything higher than a quantity of 1 of whatever you get from the harvest.

[GreenKnux]

I approve. Good job SE. Keep it up and I might actually enjoy paying you money again...

[ringthree]

Except they come back online at a not-so-fucking-over european prime time, even if you happen(ed) to play on US servers. (Which many EU did due to the game launching months earlier). Add to that it meant a reset of the raid instances, giving you something to do again the moment servers were done with maint.

Yeah, but what would you do during the hours and days of instability and constant rolling restarts after big patches?

There is absolutely no comparison of server stability between FFXI and WoW. It's not even close.

You think getting into Nyzul is hard at peak times? WoW's servers have about 6x less capacity than FFXI servers and they still have issues with getting instances to load. Not raids... instances.

You won't be getting multiple saplings, but yes you can still do it. They did it to prevent NPC spamming.

[Dezonly1]

Sometimes i wonder why i keep paying SE to play this damn game.
