hi guys,

quick history :
i played DRK until end 2007 and then got rid of my account to... you know... taste the fresh air and stop the hardcore playing and now... i wanna come back >.>;

back in the days i had :
Posted Image

the first was my TP set, the second my WS set, had other set but i don't have screenshots anymore

it was considered quite good but took me a lot of time to gather

as i said, i wanna just start again since some of my friend started new character too

i do have friends still playing so getting help is not an issue but i probably won't get any HNM stuff again (unless they aren't camped anymore ?)


so, what are the new gear i should be focusing end game to be at least decent ?

thank you for your time :D


sidenote : i plan on doing it casually (2-3h a day), no hardcore playing anymore

Look up DRK AF3 and start there.

This is a fairly ignorant statement. End game is generally considered the most difficult stuff to defeat in a lot of games. Nothing was ever really that hard to beat in FFXI though, just player ignorance of game mechanics. However, in FFXI, there will always be stuff to do at the level cap that is relevant to the level cap, which is probably what he was asking about.

Things are starting to move away from Abyssea slowly, but the XP gained there will still be ridiculous no matter what level.

Dynamis you can enter every single day now, and at most lasts 2 hrs, you can go in at ANY time, noone can block you from it. Abyssea is where most of the content is for good gear as they call it. Most jobs the AFv3 and emp weapons are the best you can get. And welcome back. You can also augment your sky gear now and the list will continue to grow. Honestly you are returning at an awesome time. I soloed from 1-37 in about a day and half, and then turned around and leveled to 61 in abyssea party the next.

and if you're still a drk enthusiast, the job has gotten a decent buff. Plus one of our empy is very good (Caladbolg) and easy to farm as well.

unc summed up lvling pretty well.

Also If you play on pc and have the capacity too. I'd recommend getting a mule character eventually, whm is in god mode right now and with a whm mule you can duo farm most things once you get your main jobs situated.

oh nice, thanks

i still am a DRK enthusiast, i had 5 job to 75 and DRK was definitely the funniest to play with
i do play on Pc and still have my brothers account to wich i transfered some stuff before i left (hauby, PCC etc) so it should make leveling easyer (but the bastard didn't level whm haha)

and btw unctgtg 1-37 solo in one day and a half ? O.o ... you guys really need to tell me how is that possible now, that used to take at least 2 weeks with soloing only doable past 19 for some jobs... unless you had a powerleveler of course

1-37 I could see possible if 1. all free time and 2. knowledgeable and have the right equips. Don't really need a PL these days with Field of Valor and that hat that came out for buying all 3 Abyssea add ons with the regen and refresh.

If there is no end game, then it is get to level cap and quit.

9 more levels to go man. I wouldn't just say fuck it right yet. You might be surprised at the changes coming. They had to get something added in for the casual fuckers that bitch about the game being too hard. They have added that cake now it is time to add the cherry on top for us hardcore gamers that require a bit of challenge and patience. That is something most of these new game players coming up don't have.


That will take the "void" away of there being no challenge left. Just sit back and wait there can be many changes made to jobs and mobs we fight in time. I am happy for this new content but without the harder stuff to use this gear on it sucks.

You have to solo / pt til 30, because that's the earliest you can enter abyssea, but after that you can leech abyssea XP from 30-90 in a day if you get a good PT.
