You're going to run into that all the way to 75. =/ It sucks, but it's pretty normal if you don't have a static.

It depends I guess. Im taking my second job up through these lvls right now. I find that some parties really suck and some are really good. I found that once you find a group of people that make a good pt you tend to find yourself in pts with the same people all the time. I never really had to do this LFP crap on my DRK considering we at all times had at least a semi-static group of 3-4 people. You still have the dumbasses like you experienced but you will find good pts.
I saw a Lv40 WHM that didn't know how to cure. She's a speed leveler thanks to her boyfriend. She's never had to use Cure in her life haha.Daizy said:

Stop seeking and make parties yourself. I made 90% opf my samurai's parties from 1-75 and about 75% of my ninjas parties, even though invites were easy. Party with people you know and if you find somone or a couple people that know how to do their job, keep inviting them. Party during the week, friday and saturdays are awful. Bibiki bay, if its open, from 62-70ish is the best exp non cannon ive ever had. Birds there gave me 6-8k/hour. If you get awful players, like when I made the mistake of inviting Nandin to one of my nin's parties, you know to never, ever invite them again. Sitting there for hours is lazy, don't wait for the 6k an hour party to invite you, take some initiative and make the party yourself.
my 2 cents, /welcome to early 60's!
it seem's that there are more nOObs just entering 60 then valkurm dunes, they start to filter out a bit by mid 60's though and its even less ra/ex to find them post 70. There will always be nOOb's but they don't usually make it that far (anytime soon that is) because they don't know how to "Party" per say.
Just stick it out, you'll get a good party evenually that will rock your socks. he'll when my ninja catches ya, i'll invite you just to test your skills. i usually make party's that consist of people i've played with before that i trust. been doing it with every job, some nights i feel lazy and will just lfp though. for the most part the best way to avoid dumbasses is either static or building a informal static party with people you have played with and know and trust to do there job.
GL and God's speed to you!

not EVERYONE who speed lvls is a complete utter DUMBASS. I AM A SPEED LVLER, does my gear suck? NO! Do i suck at any job i play? NO! you only time you've seen anyone talk bad about the way i play a job is by a nOOb that made the point he didn't know wtf was going on anyways.
People are going to suck ass whether they lvl fast or slow, there is no in-between of if you farm and take your time you'll be good. No, you have to be willing to learn for one and two have some common sence to do some research on your job and do some experiments.
Maybe i'm different because i CAN speed lvl and do everything you just mensiond to do instead of lvling on the side. i have a comp on next to me that has all my info for the game right at my finger tips, 2 systems in front of me running ffxi, then my ps/2 system on the tv behind those 2 systems, and another one bazaaring 24/7 whatever and where ever i like (long as it stays connected my stuffs been messing up lately ;
lol bascally the same thing i'm saying :/Zoolander said:
You want something done right, you gotta do it yourself nuff said.
60-70 is a long, slow drag unless you have a static.... just hang in there hon, you'll make it through.
cocyte said:
i agree with you 100%
Pan i said MOST.. not all... for most, it is there first high lvl job and dont have the funds to just keep exping without stopping and farming etc...And besides your a blm lol...if people dont know how to play thier job correctly/effcient(sp?) they need to go read up on alla or whatever or just GTFO.

now lets just say that they do have a web browser. I would not look up every single detail there is to know about a game. To PS2 players it'll be just like another game you walk up buy, play and put down. WE can't expect everyones lives to revolve around the interenet. Hell no that's left to you kids here mauahahaah. If your gonna bitch about a noob player bitch about your life first. Then realize your pissed about a video game lolzSculli said:
STFU you idoiot
Don't turn this into another BLM is oh so easy and lazy and fast to lvl blah blah blah, i'd fight you all day on that arguement. anyone with half a brain and the drive to play the job to its max knows it requires skill to play.Rhyan said:
My new job i'm lvling now is NIN. Easy? hardly, I choose ninja while lvling my blm to 75 because well it takes money and skill to be good. You half ass it as ninja and your gonna get burned easy as that. people remember the ninja that rocked there socks, and that's my new image i'm jumping the band wagon for. I hated the job at first but boy am i ever so loving it now ^^ 42 and going strong.
but for those that speed lvl, don't farm, craft, quest, help others F YOU GTFO no one wants to play with some jackass that doesn't know there shit. Now with my ninja, i'd be better to kick a shitty thf then to lvl with them. i don't have hate issues, maybe its harder in later lvls (i'll find out soon enough) but i can solo tank fine being first voke.
Don't know why we waist our breath, they'll never listen to us. they just tell us the STFU and they'll do what they want. Had it happen way to many times being friendly and trying to give advice. The thf last night actually listened to me and like the advice i gave him and made him perform a hell of a lot better and faster, {All Right} 1/50 in good apples.

Dragon that was really insulting to me, your making fun of my addiction
I play 2 pc's and a ps/2 while whoring the internet for info ; ;. i get pissed off at shitty players because its more then a game to me, i've got a bad addiction YES have i tried to quit YES for 1 month i only had 1 character active (considering i've had at least 2 running since i started thats pretty good) and that was my crafter i mined and crafted for a month but i couldn't just DO that alone it wasn't enough to keep me occupied. I try getting away for a night and end up rushing home just to check the AH board and delevery box wtf.
But no, not everyone that plays on ps/2 has a computer to look information up on. i've got some friends that had ps/2's but dont have computers and they have broadband access.
Zoolander said:
Yes sir. I do try that. Here lately there has been a serious tank shortage when I build PT's. So I do build one if I have the time, and I've built good parties. But sometimes it's hard to find people to play with consecutively. Solitia knows me more than anyone, lol you can ask her, I am a pretty casual guy when it comes to leveling. So people usually pass me right up.
You're trolling a forum, for an online game. In the process you're insulting people who know their jobs, and play the game seriously. So, I assume you don't do that, since, you know, that could make you a hypocrite.Dragon Ryder said:
If this is true, your constant use of the word "noob" would make also assist in proclaiming your title as hypocrite.
I'm sorry, could you repeat that in plain english? Why would I bitch about my life? It's actually perfectly fine.Dragon Ryder said:
...You could atleast learn to spell, before you go insulting someone else's intelligence.Dragon Ryder said:
I had the same problem in the early 60's. Getting up to the late 60's it was great, no problem finding a party, generally good ones too, people knew what they were doing. Made me enjoy xping again.
Dragon Ryder said:
You, sir, are a certifiable retard, for making an arguementative post in which no one can distinguish what the hell you are arguing about. If you're bashing PS2 users, I suggest you watch your step, because I am on a PS2, and I don't just pick it up and play it like 'another game you walk up, buy, play and put down.' I've been playing on a PS2 for almost 2 years, and just because I have a PS2 does not mean I'm not perfectly capable of walking the 10 feet to the PC to look up whatever it is that you appear to be arguing I don't know because of the fact that I'm a console player. You say you can't expect everyone's lives to revolve around the internet, but I -think- if I read this right, that's exactly what you're bashing people for not doing? Not running two separate connections to figure out how to 'not be a nob?'
I give up trying to untangle the mess of English you just made with your post. I'm not very good with paradoxes.

what im saying is you can't expect everyone to know everything there is. Therefore you shouldn't bitch about them every single time they make a mistake etc..lol Passions it's cool i'm just saying though if you expect the best out of everyone you'll surely be let down in the end.

haah me bash PS2 players? BItch i am on PS2 and i do own a PC and i do play on one or the other. But you can't expect everyone to have a pc they can use or even use the pc at all for web browsing. You guy really expect the casual gamer to be just like you guys here? If that's what you expect then you need to /slap yourself silly.Elysian said:
