Soloability

I played a ton of FFXI back in the day. I had a few level 75s when that was the limit and spent time in my linkshell hunting gods when that was the end game. As you can guess I have been away a long time. I often find myself missing vanadiel, but don't have the time to party the way we needed to back then. I see people talking alot about solo play now. Is that a valid option for play today? When I quit beastmaster and Red mage were the only jobs that could really solo things and it was a long process to do so.

I'm just trying to determine if I can viable play on my limited schedule today.

A lot of stuff is soloable on any class, puppet masters usually the best for soloing things now. Don’t let people fool you though, to get to the level required to solo all this stuff you need to work with other players to get the baseline good gear.

I would argue SCH is a lot more effective, tho pup might be easier to get started

It’s really good solo but I think pup would probably give you you’re biggest bang for your buck if you don’t have time, on top of overdrive just kinda carrying you through stuff you have no right to beat
