    So I looked up his FFXIAH history (on the names that he gave us), and I find it odd that he's jumping servers to do the same events he's done on Carbuncle (ty listed equip history). Seems a bit perplexing and I can't quite put my finger on it. Anyone know of this guy? Any information would be welcome.

    Will show up to shit at the beginning then find a reason to leave as soon as he finds a better ls. Used to try to apply to shells as bard then anon and go different jobs to events, nothing special as far as skill goes.

  3. #3

    Same as above, lotted some items when WoE 1st came out over other LS members and turned around and sold them on AH, etc, etc. Skill is meh, seems like a nice guy at times but does shady shit.

    He has skipped mandatory events to exp in Abyssea while in our linkshell in Outlaws. He initially dropped pearl (to reasons unknown to me) due to some drama over Abyssea pop items/points trade value (which he wasn't even involved in the first place) then he was repearled. I don't know the full extent of the story, however.

    As for his skill? Nothing special. His RDM struggles to sleep in Dynamis, and he refuses to play bard. His best job I would probably say is SAM, and it's above average in gear. His PLD isn't bad, but nothing exceptional, but he won't replace your main tanks, just pinch hit at times.

    I don't know why he's apping, but if he's looking to jump servers, I wish him good luck, and ya'll as well since he seems to be one of those "instant gratification" type players - if he's not getting an item quickly enough without working towards the points, he might leave your linkshell.

  5. #5

    If he wants instant gratification, he's playing the wrong game lol For some reason he was seemed shy about saying "maybe some kool items" for what he wanted from the shell. Why are people so hesitant? Do you go to work for the coworkers/friends or for the money you want to be paid? Seems silly.

    He was in a LS with me for a week, we told him he'd have to come BRD to everything. When he found out we were serious a week later after a JoL where he somehow managed to die no less than 8 times on BRD, he said "well guyz sorry im leavin this ls an goin back to" whatever server he said he was from, quit the LS, and proceeded to LS hop around the server for over a year. Not a quality pick.

    Generally if I hated my job, I'd quit and look for something else to, especially if it was doing something I hated doing.

    Just playin devils advocate, but some of the logic related to this game is just so retarded it amazes me. He's a bad person for not wanting to spend his time doing something he hates, just because your linkshell can't get anybody else decent to be a BRD? Sounds like your LS was lackluster in this case.

    He leveled the job to 85, he should go on the job provided and be useful to his shell rather than bitch and complain about being on the fucking job he took the time to level in the first place.

  10. #10

    I'm not saying he shouldn't go as BRD, but should not be expected to go BRD to -every- event. Get some variety in there. FFXI would then turn into groundhogs day (movie).

    He stated on his application to Outlaws (about 2 months ago? I forget) that one of the main reasons he left his previous linkshell was that they made him come BRD to everything. BRD is a useful job for endgame, I have it leveled, and it's geared properly for the job. I don't bitch and whine if the linkshell needs me on BRD for whatever event, even though I have a pretty good WAR. Why level the fucking job if you don't want to play it? That's just fucking stupid to me.

    The bottom line is, he probably won't hurt your linkshell in terms of doing something incredibly stupid, but he won't make you forget about your best players either. He won't CFH a Fafnir by accident, or make King Behemoth fly (lol, Carbuncle folks know what I be talking about!). He can help tank stuff on his PLD, but he won't replace your main tanks, just supplement them.

    I think he's best fit for a linkshell that has a /point system instead of a points system. I know everybody plays this game to get items, but you should learn how a linkshell does their drop system before you app to them - if it's a /point based system and you don't like that system, don't apply. Same goes for a point system. Regardless, you should put in work before you expect to be able to lot an item over others that have been in the linkshell longer than you have, and put in more work than you.

    If you're not ready to play said job 24/7 don't put it on your application, simple as that. It's kind of retarded to put all your support jobs on an application to make you look useful then refuse to play them once you're in cause it's boring.

    If he does that, then yeah that is pretty stupid.

    You forget, Colenzo. All the cool kids are chest bitching their jobs to 85 (never mind the lack of skill!) and then justifying lotting shit for their said chest bitched jobs.

    Did you read the app? "Main jobs you can and will bring" I can bring brd yes, but when a shell makes me come brd so the Relic brd can some something else is where I draw the line.
