I'M (possibly) BACK!!!Follow

#1 Oct 27 2006 at 2:22 PM Rating: Decent
Wow, long time since ive been to this page.... You all used to know me as Sobek(50 Thf, very poor and no AF exept weapon), but I'm probally long gone from your memories. I started playing World of Warcraft, since all of my friends played, but were getting a little bored of only WoW, and it might sound crazy, but I miss the dunes. Wondering how the server is now, especially the economy, when i quit Emp. Pin was about 2 mil. I remember Agirlyman, whose name I saw on the page, but not so much everyone else. Wondering what i can farm because i gave all my money away to n00bs, only 50k so I didnt make super n00bs, and im wondering how I can work back up to my status of poor instead of broke. Oh, and wtf is Puppetmaster? Do I need to go by the expansion to resume playing? Can if its not to much, if you see a char named Hylia or Kara tell them that Sobeks coming back? Thank you soooo much!

Economy is actually kinda deflated at the moment, everythings getting cheaper, which is good but its pretty hard to profit from crafts unless its an HQ or stackable, and useful material, i.e ingots, leather etc. Though this holds true since the game started but it just seems more evident in a deflated economy.

You'll need the expansion if you want to unlock the 3 new jobs and exp in the new areas, which most of the server does now once your 55+. As for Puppetmaster...not to start a flame war but I keep hearing and the lack of seeing, that Pups are like the Drgs of Aht Arghan? I know there a few lvl 75 Pups but no where near as many Cors or Blus at 75.

Thank you, I like dragoon so I might try it out. I was in the linkshell RareEX, is that still around with many people? I left when it had more than any other I had been in.

I remember you Sobek, you were in RareEx, well, not so much "remember" but I do know who you are anyway.

Hylia quit around the first part of August unfortunately.

RareEx is pretty much dead now, long, long story really. You can always visit the site though, http://rareex.com/

Most of the core members are still around though, just in some ls or another.

Hylia quit the game... I think it's only temporary, though.

Thats sad, Hylia had made me promise to come back for atleast one month... Two things: Is the expansion MANDATORY for a 50 thf or a 45 monk? My friend and will share the accoun, he gets Hulck, my brother's former char, but we dont need to waste any money till after christmas. And can I still get any of those Prepaid Gaming Cards for this game? I really need one of those if i am going to come back, thanks!!!

Technically its not mandatory to have the expansion to lvl but 99% of pts from 55 and up will be in the new areas because of the exp bonus from the Astral Candascence and the need for Imperial Standing Points to get the Turban and for ISNMs.

I don't know if there were any pre-paid gaming cards for FFXI, I know WoW has them but when I worked at GameStop there was never a listing for FFXI pre-paid game cards.

Wow.... I havn't been this jumpy since I bought the game over 3 years ago! Start tomarrow (1st) so I dont have to pay for a month. I'm so giddy just thinking about playin again! I'm making a Tarutaru along with my friend and we're gunna be on from like 3PM till at least 3AM. If anyone has a good LS plz invite me, I'll post my name later, so far I'm messing around with something I saw in the Taru threads... Tarubixcube. Or possibly Upskirt (^^) lol (tell which is better or something totally different). Cya at 3!!!

I'm possibly back too!!! Some may have seen me, Pcken, 72? Bard and 60? Warrior, I really cant remember.

I've played Warcraft 3, mainly DotA if some of you have heard, for a good year or 2, ever since 2004 September, then started playing WoW 2 weeks ago and boy, it made me miss FFXI like never before, I could go on forever how FFXI > WoW. I dont get it, I just feel so much attached to FFXI than WoW, like the OP said, the dunes, kazham, "Garbage Citahell" OH and the Crawler's Nest. Occasionally fishing at Qufim, helping a party for a Raise, being relaxed.... rolling up Gigant Squids were the days.

I've also wondered about the economy, are gil-sellers still as bad as before? I remember buying a Hauby for 2.7mil, SH was around 5 mil ever since the Claw could be dropped from the Op. desert storm. I dont know how i remember this, but it's laid pretty dormant in my mind for a while.


There are also alot of new things I've noticed, such as Chocobo breeding, new jobs, n stuff.

Anyway, I might see some of you guys ingame, I'm more of a casual player n I live in Australia (pretty far from most of you guys =/) since I got work n stuff.
