Lvling UPFollow

depends on group ... there are lots of begginer guides and intro's running around.

i find that after level 20 or so you can expect about 1-2 levels maximum for 2+ hrs. Of course if you happen to land a awesome group you should be able to do better.

Hmmm "When I was training my subclass up with my primary class as my subclass, I ended up getting to level 9 in a matter of a couple of hours. Much easier the second time through when you can fight Toughs single-handedly." ¨

What the hell does that mean? Some more questions!
Is the mix of Thf+mnk good? If I have learnd abilities with both and switch job do I have the abilities left that i have learnd? Why do i need the harddrive? And how do i train my subjob? Does it lvl up automaticly?

Erfos!

I mean when I was training up as a Monk/Warrior, it went much faster than when I was strictly a Warrior. Minor stat boosts and abilities due to having the subclass, plus being a smarter player the second time through.

You have to level your subclass as a normal class. It does not get any experience as a subclass. So if you want to play a Warrior/Monk (like I'm doing), you have to spend time as a Monk to get experience for that class.

You will have applicable abilities when you switch classes. As a Warrior/Monk using a sword, I still have the Monk's Boost abilities, but I don't have Hundred Fists (that only works on Hand to Hand combat). There are also some statistic boosts from the subclass as well, meaning that as a 25 Warrior / 12 Monk, I'm better than a 25 Warrior without a subclass.

I think there is always at least one part of a zone that is perfect to level in... Soloing that is...

In Windurst, I have found that if you just make your way up that River that in on the East Side of East Sarabuto.. I leveled 4 levels in a few hours as a WHM.

The only times I head any trouble is when I got impatient and tried to move onto a spot that had stronger creatures. The right thing to do is find a spot that has mostly Decent Challenges.. and once in a while a Even Match... and before you should need to Rest.. or when all DCs are depleted.. slaughter a few Easies with your remaining strenth....

that River is good becuase you don't really have to worry about aggroes. Making my way to the Top of the River and back a few times worked for me. Just don't get impatient and bite off more than you can chew.

Also a note on leveling a Sub-Job. YOu will find that It is much easier to do usually because your skill are already maxed out(for the most part). That is why I think I'm not having such a hard time soloing as a White Mage... although I'm abuot to reach Lvl 10. Party Time.

The US/NTSC version for PS2 isn't out yet (this is the version that requires you to have a chipped PS2)

The EU/PAL version may not be out for a year, if ever!

So, if you have a decent PC, i suggest you get the import PC version... If not, you gotta chip your PS2 or be veeery patient (as of now if doesn't seem like FF11 has got a release scedule for Europe at all!!)

I think on average you lv up about 1 per ever hour or two as long as you have a good, balanced party, and your fighting T to IT monsters, I think some people get a little carried away when choosing what to fight and then they are suprized when they die.

I think it would be impossible to explain the game in a decent way to someone who hasnt been there yet. I find the experience extremely overwhelming at first, since there is so much to see, and even more to do! Also, i have been playing for about 2 months, and there are still lots of things i dont know, and believe me: i spend a lot of time playing and reading about the game!

sry ... 20 lvls in less then a week? Then you have a lot of spare time on your hands.. first 10 lvls are fast (2 evenings) but those other 10 are hard... Wich class do ya play?
