FFXI Grinding Out Those Levels

Submitted by Pwnsan on Sunday, 23 August 2009No Comment

welcome

I just wanted to pop in and post a nice weekend update.  I finished up quite a few things in FFXI this past week.  I was able to level my Warrior to 30 and get a Chocobo License, Sub Job Unlock, and Advance Job Bard unlock.  The first 10 levels weren’t too bad.  I solo’d to level 10 in the starting area West Ronfaure.  It’s so easy to level nowadays.  The levels basically flew by.  Some notable changes to the experience system are reduced overall experience per level, increased experience per kill, hourly quest via Fields of Valor, HP/MP regen/refresh buffs, and the Level Sync feature.  Here are a few screen shots of me grinding away in West Ronfaure.

After I hit level 10 I ran my little Tarutaru to Valkrum dunes.  With the Level Sync feature active I had no trouble finding groups.  I was really surprised that these levels went so smoothly.  There were plenty of new and old characters in this low level party area.  I hit level 18 after joining a few groups.

I got extremely lucky and finished up my Sub Job quest pretty quickly.  There happen to be some bored high levels around the areas I was in and they lent a helping hand.  I collected the quest items and unlocked my Sub Job slot.  I decided to go with Monk as a Sub Job because the job adds a lot more health and threat skills to Warrior.  I figured since I don’t plan on subbing Monk in the future that I would level him only to 15.  Leveling my Sub Job wasn’t too rough.  The added bonuses of having my Warrior job subbed made things a lot easier.  I solo’d to 10 in West Ronfaure again and headed back to good old Dunes.  After I hit 15 on my Monk I switched back over to my Warrior and reached level 20.

Once I hit level 20 I headed to Jeuno to get my very own Chocbo License.  No more running for this little Taru it’s all feathered transport from now on.  Thanks for reading, see ya next time!
