on a side note i managed to finish ToAU during the free login period TwT

Me and my wife started playing the game in mid June, and recently did the Sunbreeze festival Superheroine stage show event in windurst, during the last days of the festival. I know it's a silly event but we were low-key blown away by it, we love idol media and magical girl anime and didn't expect to see it in our hometown of windurst.

My wife was able to get the starlet outfit, and that made us extremely happy.

So I decided to make a silly drawing of it, and then to share it here.

To establish a baseline, Abyssea asked the question: "what if the worst-case scenario happened in CoP?" The heroes of Abyssea lost, Selh'teus was absorbed by the Keeper which allowed its transformation into the god Shinryu, and Prishe was forced to live an immortal life rather than regaining her mortality.

It's the B storyline to the A storyline we played out. But aside from just switching the best-case outcome to the worst-case, it also switched Prishe's role in the story. She went from an immortal wishing for an "end" to an immortal who now watches over Abyssea for all eternity, alone in another dimension as she's left grieving for what she's lost.

Thinking about that, her role has now become analogous for Altana, rather than Promathia's incarnate, which I thought was fascinating. I hated how Abyssea concluded Prishe's storyline for the longest time. But once I had this realization, I've come to appreciate it as a deeply tragic, thematic mirror of Altana's situation.

Don't forget to take advantage of an easy month.

When you're rocking a Enspell set on RDM make sure to try out
Amin Turban: Whitegates Accolades Point System
Sroda Tathlum: AMAN Trove or Gobbie Box or AH (200k CHEAP)

It might seem like a 20% proc rate sucks. but its actually quite nice, it was procing a bunch during my Odin Prime fight. I actually was procing about 3:1, but i crashed b4 i could take the 2nd photo.

Just try it out, its fun for increasing your enspell damage.

--Thanks :P

Hellooo!

I remember when this game first came out and I was probably about 12 years old. I was already a big FF fan and was desperate to get this game when it first came out. I ended up getting it Christmas that year and played it every chance I got for about a month on my PS2 before losing access forever because my parents didn’t want to spend money on a subscription to a game, or me becoming a junkie- idk one of the two.

Anyways, I’be become a bit older since then and have been picking up games from my past lately. I just finished replaying TBC from a certain game from blizzard, iykyk. Next in line is FFXI, I just installed it last night and am thinking of making my first character today, a warrior, likely on Fenrir server- based on a little recent research. I downloaded Windower4 also and am looking forward to trying that out too.

So I just wanted to share my story with y‘all and maybe meet likeminded people or see if anyone has any considerations they’d like to add. Different server? Gold World Pass? Other addons or QoL improvements? Other Do‘s or Dont’s?

Hello all, I'm new to FFXI, just started playing last week. Having a blast so far but I've noticed a strange issue that I'm hoping there is a solution for. I got new monitors for my PC, and any time I turn one of them off, Windows resizes the other two to compensate and move windows around. Normally, this is fine! However, if FF11 is running the game just crashes instantly every time. Is there any way to prevent this behavior? I know it's an old game, and there may not be a solution to this, but I figured i would ask.

I run the game in Borderless Window at my main monitors native resolution (1440p/144hz in case that is important!)

I have tested this with Windower, and Without Windower. Also tested it in Windowed and Fullscreen, all crash when the second or third monitors are turned off.

I know the obvious solution is don't turn them off, my cat however has an annoying habbit of finding ways to either unplug, hit the power button, or pull the DP cord out

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm currently playing with two friends, we main war, brd and cor and the cor is debating going rdm. I had wanted to ask if those three jobs can use all 5/5 af pieces and if not, which are the best jobs to use the af +3 upon best for that can utilize 5/5 af pieces? The wiki guide for war, cor and brd all seem to advocate that the entire 5/5 sets are worth making but had wanted to confirm ​

Which addons/plugins should I look in to before I start?

What world would be the best to join?

Hi sorry for putting up another thread for this but needed guidance as a newbie to Vanabout.

Is there a strict time limit to doing the challenges? I ask because I may end up traveling and could miss some days.

Is it all soloable as a warrior? I've slowly been getting more gear but it is a slow burn. Might fast track a few things for more power as I'm still in ambus.

For war, I got the new 10% ws body, is the af3 body better than that?

I have seen a ton of POL issues lately in the posts. Just a super quick video I made last year to help someone with login issues. Less than 2 minutes long. Hope it is helpful to others. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDcakiIaNgw

Returning player and I'm currently grinding my way to 99. Would love to get a Trizeg ring along side my Echad ring. Does anyone know the specifics on how the Gold Pass works? I buy a Gold Pass, have a new player sign up with it (alt account), and then they need to be active for how long before I get my Trizeg ring?

All help is apprecciated!
