  • Take Gungnir to 99

  • Make a Ryunohige

  • Enjoy Rune Fencer

  • Make the Seekers of Adoulin's variant of a R/M/E polearm

- The most enjoyable fight you have had.
CoP 6-4 Airship fight or Odin (both versions)

- The battlefield you have done the most.
Shadows of the Mind, probably.

- Content in the game you really hate doing, but you do it anyway.
Dynamis. I didn't read the thread, but I'd be surprised if anyone put anything other than that or Salvage. <_<

- The most helpful player(s)(or linkshell) you have done things with.
Where to start...

All from Odin, in chronological order from first met:

- Your favourite job.
Samurai or Blue Mage. Impossible choice!

- The worst job you play for the sake of getting ahead.
I like all the jobs I play or I wouldn't play them! But I guess the job I least like to be on that's usually asked for is Summoner.

- Those old pieces of gear you wish were not collecting dust in Storage or NPC.
Vali's Bow, Ochimusha Kote, Sarutobi Kyahan, Byakko's Haidate. Basically any R/E drop I worked for that felt amazing when they finally dropped.

- The most useless abilities that you want to use, but wastes your time.
Lol, this is an odd question. I suppose Hamanoha?

- The greatest accomplishment(s) of your year.
I'm not sure. I guess Apocalypse 99 and Yoichinoyumi 99, but I didn't get that feeling of accomplishment when I finished them.

- The nerfs to the game you wish didn't happen.
Haste cap nerf. :(

- Content you want changed because it's unfair and purely luck based.
Voidwatch I guess.

- The jobs, relics and empyreans you see all the time.
Samurai, Beastmasters and Ragnaroks everywhere x.x

- Them jobs you very rarely see nowadays.
Red Mage, Paladin and Dancer.

- When you checked someone and thought... Wow, that weapon, wish I had that.
I'm not sure. I guess Hagun, Ephemeron and Mythics.

- The most disappointing battle you should have won.
An Odin v1 at 90 cap that we lost because 2 people didn't have the feathers to enter.

- Your thoughts on special events(Mog Bonanza etc.) SE have produced this year.
The suspense of waiting for something to appear in your Delivery Box was kinda nice. Unfortunate that they gave away the Hexed -1 stuff without saying what the augments were, though.

- Those old pieces of gear you wish were not collecting dust in Storage or NPC.
Mantis. My hatred towards lottery spawn NMs, the number of MNKs running around with Empyrean H2H weapon, and a player named "Yaibazh" who refused to team up with me when he camped Intulo all forced me to consider Relic H2H instead (which I don't mind getting).

- The greatest accomplishment(s) of your year.
FINALLY clearing all the ToAU Missions, soloing some battles/Missions (Dynamis-Windurst, Windurst/San d'Oria Rank Missions), leveling Craft Skills.

- Content you want changed because it's unfair and purely luck based.
Old ToAU content (Assault, original Nyzul Isle, etc.) that requires at least 3 people mainly because it's hard to find help for such content these days. Everyone's more focused on recent content like Abyssea, Voidwatch, and new Nyzul Isle.

- The jobs, relics and empyreans you see all the time.
As far as Jobs, I've seen a lot of BLUs running around in full Mavi Attire and Almaces. Makes me want to avoid getting an Almace and find some other armor for my BLU (*eyes Mirage Attire +2*). This also makes me either wish BLU could use Excalibur or I could get a Tizona someday... before the world ends.

- Your thoughts on special events(Mog Bonanza etc.) SE have produced this year.
Wished I won a either a Relic or Mythic, but I thought this year's 10th anniversary contest was decent.

- The most enjoyable fight you have had.
Not an actual fight with a mob, but fights between two LS friends (who shall remain nameless :P) that occasionally go at each other like an old married couple... They've made me lol so hard at times that I've almost cried xD

- The battlefield you have done the most.
Probably dynamis, but there was a LOT of legion in there too... We rarely do Legion now.

- Content in the game you really hate doing, but you do it anyway.
VW... Most mindless event in the game: show up, spam NMs, hope to get something.

Side note: Provenance is a complete waste of time, unless of course you're after Kapor Logs, then it's win... I may physically ***my pants if Myrmex Mittens ever drop lol

- The most helpful player(s)(or linkshell) you have done things with.
Shout out to my two active shells: Dainslef and CrystalReverie!

- Your favourite job.
NOT Summoner!

- The worst job you play for the sake of getting ahead.
Summoner lol

- Those old pieces of gear you wish were not collecting dust in Storage or NPC.
In terms of time invested, I'd probably have to say my Homam set... I use none of that now :(

- The most useless abilities that you want to use, but wastes your time.
Random Deal... Resets nothing lol

- The greatest accomplishment(s) of your year.
Made a couple relics: Ragnarok(99) and Aegis(95).

- The nerfs to the game you wish didn't happen.
Embrava/PD (pending) and Victory Smite critical hit rate!

- Content you want changed because it's unfair and purely luck based.
I'd say NNI, because I've lost good runs due to shitty jumps, but on the inverse I've won runs I probably shouldn't have due to awesome jumps, so...

- The jobs, relics and empyreans you see all the time.
There are Dark Knights galore and Masamune SAMs as far as the eye can see.

- The jobs you very rarely see nowadays.
I've heard about this job once called a "Red Mage" :o

- When you checked someone and thought... Wow, that weapon, wish I had that.
There's like 9 mythics in my event shell, so take your pick... /jelly

- The most disappointing battle you should have won.
I've lost on floor 100 of NNI with 10% HP or less on the NM a couple times... /sigh

- Your thoughts on special events(Mog Bonanza etc.) SE have produced this year.
I won absolutely nothing from Mog Bonanza... Not even a moogle rape suit :(

- The most enjoyable fight you have had.
Solo Iratham on SMN.. probably not the most game breaking but was the most fun I've had in a while on the game. Before that was tanking Sobek on WHM while trying to raise the NIN.. goooood times.

- The battlefield you have done the most.
Celaeno. CAN EAT MY SHOES.

- Content in the game you really hate doing, but you do it anyway.
Leveling. For some reason I hate it now.

- The most helpful player(s)(or linkshell) you have done things with.
Done a lot with a lot of people on Valefor.. so all those people I've done stuff with.

- Your favourite job.
White Mage, with Summoner at a close second.

- The worst job you play for the sake of getting ahead.
Probably THF.. and it's not the best geared as well, lol.

- Those old pieces of gear you wish were not collecting dust in Storage or NPC.
Goliard set... Some of the Nashira Gear.. Sky Gear.. etc., etc.

- The most useless abilities that you want to use, but wastes your time.
Divine Caress and Sacrosanctity for WHM. The 1st never seems to work and the 2nd just never seems to have a good time to use for me when you get pummeled with magic.. but that's just me.

- The greatest accomplishment(s) of your year.
Gambanteinn for WHM. WOOT. That and Anhur Robe... EAT MY SHOES.

- The nerfs to the game you wish didn't happen.
Blinkers.. that and making Cure IV better to use than V in most situations.. they need to change it.
- Content you want changed because it's unfair and purely luck based.
Voidwatch. EAT. MY. SHOES.

- The jobs, relics and empyreans you see all the time.
WHM bots, Ukon's, Kannagi's, BST all over, DRK and WARs, Ragnaroks, Apocs, SCHs and SMNs that now are rendered useless.

- Them jobs you very rarely see nowadays.
RDM, PUP, DNC, DRG, RNG. Also see a lot of people hide the fact they have BRD or COR for some reason...

- When you checked someone and thought... Wow, that weapon, wish I had that.
Yagrush. Time Sink. No thanks.

- The most disappointing battle you should have won.
3/4 of the Pil I've done. Not kidding either.. /sad.

- Your thoughts on special events(Mog Bonanza etc.) SE have produced this year.
Should have made it so more than one person got a chance at relic/mythic/etc.
Cerberus.Legend said: »
The winner of the last mog bonanza choose a Yoichinoyumi over a mythic weapon
*cough*
Make events give gil and/or other stuff that we can actually use?
PRETTY PANTS. YAY!

My thoughts for 2013:
Waiting to see what the new 14 is like. Haven't had time to play like I used to sadly. SoA doesn't seem like it would do enough to get me to play like I used to since all my friends either quit/switched servers. So we'll see.

- The most enjoyable fight you have had.
I had a fun 10 second Kupo Fight VS. My BLU. Easily the greatest fun on FFXI thus far.
- The battlefield you have done the most.
Voidwatch... By far.
- Content in the game you really hate doing, but you do it anyway.
Voidwatch. Losing faith slowly, I can get Ganesha's Mala, Athos's Gloves, Coruscanti, but for the life of me, cannot get 1 Glowing Body, EVER.
- The most helpful player(s)(or linkshell) you have done things with.
Honestly, there's been too many people who have helped me, but most recently anyone who helped me get my first Empyrean Armageddon
- Your favourite job.
I have a multitude of favorite jobs, however, since my Corsair has an Empyrean I must choose my Corsair. Maybe soon I can get a Ukonvasara and stick with my WAR Main like I have since day 1 on FFXI.
- The worst job you play for the sake of getting ahead.
White Mage. Let's get something clear, I didn't even level the job to 99, my cousin did for me as a mule when I took a break. Now I'm forced to go WHM to a good portion of events.
- Those old pieces of gear you wish were not collecting dust in Storage or NPC.
Most of my gear that I don't use, I toss. However, I have kept my Hecatomb NQ Gear... in my storage.
- The most useless abilities that you want to use, but wastes your time.
I always found Counterstance really cool but really useless when you take double damage.
- The greatest accomplishment(s) of your year.
Most recently the amount of gil I've been making is insane. My greatest achievement was getting my Armageddon to 85.
- The nerfs to the game you wish didn't happen.
Chocobo Blinkers. Eventually SCH and SMN Embrava and PD, not looking forward to that.
- Content you want changed because it's unfair and purely luck based.
Neo-Nyzul Isle. When you clear 20+ floors and are only on floor 65-99 its frustrating beyond belief. I still don't have 1 NNI piece and I am considering buying pieces.
- The jobs, relics and empyreans you see all the time.
Kannagi, Almace, Ukonvasara, Verethranda, Armageddons... Ragnarok Spammage.
- Them jobs you very rarely see nowadays.
Red Mage and Puppetmaster. The two have been deemed completely useless by my standards.
- When you checked someone and thought... Wow, that weapon, wish I had that.
Ragnarok. Eventually I'll make a relic after 8 years of playing, its about time.
- The most disappointing battle you should have won.
Neo-Nyzul clearing 22 floors and only on floor #67.
- Your thoughts on special events(Mog Bonanza etc.) SE have produced this year.
Don't pay attention to the events. However, I still need an Ark Scythe, means that NINs only missing Great Sword Red Proc!

Thoughts for 2013:
Real life comes before everything. With that said, I don't hold any expectations for 2013 in FFXI other than maybe a few more Empyreans and a Relic or two. I haven't really tried in the past.

Best of luck to everyone in 2013.

*Scholar is a popular job and actually used in almost all content.

*legion is an interesting fun event with decent rewards

*No Voidwatch for the last 3/4ths of the year. /fume and voidclusters make almost every voidwatch drop easily low mannable.

*SE brings back 2 of my favorite looking body armors (thaumas and morri) and makes them useful.


I give 2012 an 8/10

Eh, why not?

- The most enjoyable fight you have had. From this year, aside from dozens of lowman things, was probably beating 100F in NNI for the first few times.
- The battlefield you have done the most. Probably Akvan. Took hundreds to get my body, then after I get 4 more while my mules are still body-less.
- Content in the game you really hate doing, but you do it anyway. Dynamis can be boring, but I'm not sure I'd say I hate it.
- The most helpful player(s)(or linkshell) you have done things with. SSD, Runswithfafnirs is my favorite bestest half-person ever. Please don't /kick me!

- Your favourite job. White Mage
- The worst job you play for the sake of getting ahead. Summoner and Scholar, not that I'm on them often.
- Those old pieces of gear you wish were not collecting dust in Storage or NPC. My Aristocrat's Coat, Dalmatica and Duelist's Chapeau. As a 2004-2005 mage, those pieces will always have a special place in my heart.
- The most useless abilities that you want to use, but wastes your time. Not really sure what to put for this >_>
- The greatest accomplishment(s) of your year. Probably 99'ing my Daurdabla, and helping some others 99 their stuff.
- The nerfs to the game you wish didn't happen. Being unable to lock buffs. I have to actually play brd in legion now :(
- Content you want changed because it's unfair and purely luck based. Synergy/Tatter Augments, and to a lesser degree, Voidwatch
- The jobs, relics and empyreans you see all the time. Ragnarok >_>. Dorknights and Warriors everywhere.
- Them jobs you very rarely see nowadays. Red Mage
- When you checked someone and thought... Wow, that weapon, wish I had that. Both a Yagrush and a Carnwehan.
- The most disappointing battle you should have won. A few unlucky Nyzul ports, a few unlucky dyna nm wipes, usual typical stuff.
- Your thoughts on special events(Mog Bonanza etc.) SE have produced this year. More Bonanza's would've been cool. :( Glad they're bringing them back, though. I liked having no marbles that time around at least >_>

- The most enjoyable fight you have had.
Duo the final fight of WotG with my buddy.

- The battlefield you have done the most.
Probably ADL or *** Akvan

- Content in the game you really hate doing, but you do it anyway.
ADL (SMN is the most boring *** job on fights like this. Instead of gimping what we use to kill mobs how about you not make mobs that can oneshot people 50 yalms away SE)

- The most helpful player(s)(or linkshell) you have done things with.
Nazgrel and Ashtopcat

- Your favourite job.
SMN with THF and NIN in a close second

- The worst job you play for the sake of getting ahead.
BLM (i used to be in love with this job, then it became "guess we should bring one along in case we need procs")

A signed ring from my ex girlfriend. I've thought to throw it away multiple times but it reminds me of all the good times we had.

Zantetsuken

- The greatest accomplishment(s) of your year.
Getting my Kannagi to 80 and being half way done with 85 as well as being on the last stage of mandau.

- The nerfs to the game you wish didn't happen.
Dont really care too much about the nerfs, but locking buffs nerf was the only one that really affected me. So i guess I'll say that

- Content you want changed because it's unfair and purely luck based.
Neo-Nyzul Isle. Just get it the hell out of the game... finally took out need for botting kings, let's introduce something so people can feel justified for using 3rd parties again!

- The jobs, relics and empyreans you see all the time.
Ragna Ragna Vere Ragna and Armageddons

- Them jobs you very rarely see nowadays.
Red Mage. The again I guess geo dropped the final nail in that coffin

- When you checked someone and thought... Wow, that weapon, wish I had that.
anything that involves glavoid or chloris cause lets be honest... *** them.

- The most disappointing battle you should have won.
Divine Might BST duo. THE DAMNED TIGER PET STILL SUCKS!!!!

- Your thoughts on special events(Mog Bonanza etc.) SE have produced this year.
Do it more often like you used to :(

Thoughts for 2013:
With RL starting to pick up more and more i just want to finish my kanna and mandau before i put down the controler for good. I am loving the game still but the time i need to devote is just becoming more and more unreasonable for my schedule.
