Hi everyone! i was just wondering, i heard people talking about a sky and a sea in the game. can anyone plz give me some in depth info on it?

thanks!
 
sky is a great exp place at 75s where people can get chain 10+'s and also there's genbu, seiryu, suzakku, byakko, and kirin there, making it really popular. You can to get up to ZM12 to get to sky and some CoP mission to get to sea. I don't have sea access yet =/
 
Sea and Sky are new areas unlocked by doing missions in the Chains of Promathia and Rize of Zilart expansion packs, respectively. In both of those areas, there's new gear you can only get from going there as well as additional missions for the expansions. Sky is a viable exp location and as more people gain access to sea, sea will become a place to party as well.

You can work on getting to sea as you level up due to the level caps placed on the missions. You start the Chains of Promathia storyline in the level 30 capped promyvions, and the level cap will periodially raise(usuall by 10 levels at a time) until there is no level cap on the areas/fights. Sky, however, you basically have to be 60+ to start the missions, unless you have several high level people willing to help you through it at a lower level.

Sea is great, the mobs up there are high VT-low IT to a level 65, I haven't tried a party up there but once my WAR gets to 65 I'm gonna damn sure try it, considering how weak the Hpemde's are to magic, timing WS or a high tier nuke on their open mouthes would be a incredible chainer.
 
soo... uhh i always wondered this...

Ro'Mauve > hall of gods > sky..
what about sea? where do you goto to get warped...or tele'd...or w/e to sea?
 
Soo let me get this straight.... Sky is related to the Zilart right? and sea is CoP? and Sky seems to be more popular right now... becuase its older, and its also a good levelign area for 65+ and its where all the gods hang out. Now sea, is where CoP missions happen and is a good leveling place for 65+ jobs too. is that all right?

You get sea access once you hit chapter 8 in the CoP missions. the zones in sea are not listed on the region map. There are also a series of gods in sea that are much harder to go through seeing as how there are many many many more and all the drops are not 100% so you have a possiblility of starting all the way over at any time.

Only one LS on Pande server has poped the final god in sea so far. Absolute Virtue.. 60+ people were beating on it and barely got it to 98% and then it regened right back to 100% -.- as it poped it did manafront, chainspell, meteor. 20+ people died right off the bat. It used call wyvern x3 and did evil spells like tornado 2. Sea is evil ><
 
Holy shit... i'm used to the lower levels.. but fuck thats gotta suck! i guess when SE raises the level cap to 80 it'll be beatable

I thought the same thing. Then I realized it's hard to find people with sea access at 65 <.<; Atleast I can manaburn there with Cyro, Fire, JB etc. once my BLM get to 75 <.<;

And you can get to Sea from the crags in Mea, Holla and Dem too.

You have to be at a certain Chapter of the CoP missions first. But if you remember back when FFXI first came out the crags all had 3 Telepoint Crystals. Of those three, one of them is shattered, and the other one is replaced by a vortex thing.

The shattered crystals lead to the Promy areas.
The vortices lead to Sea.
And of course the normal crystals are there to say.
