Final Fantasy XI Then...

1500? Is that all? Doesn't the G.Axe need over 5k to unlock? Think you have it lucky rare lol.

The amount of points needed is dependent on the progress on your Runic Disc. Because I have floor 65 on mine I require fewer points.

As of the previous update, disc progress is recorded for all members (opposed to the disc holder) but this is not retroactive. Therefore, although we had 40+ as of last update we need to repeat the lower floors every so often to allow everyone else to get progress.

This is how I see our runs progressing from now on:

Week 1 - Floor climb on main disc
Week 2 - Boss floors for armour
Week 3 - Floor climb on main disc
Week 4 - Floor climb on everyone else's disc

Then repeat. This way we hopefully have a balance of armour drops/progress. Once we have floor 100 on the main disc those runs can be used for bosses/secondary progress. Floor 100 bosses are a different proposition though. The Cerberus last night wasn't too hard just a test of resilience towards the end when he kept gaining melee resistance. At floor 100 Gates of Hades would not be locked out and could sort us out good and proper.

I see, so how many points am I likely to need in order to unlock my axe?

[C']

At the moment, 14000 points with a level 0 disc. However I would hope by the time your BST is 75 you'll have at least level 20 which halves the requirements to approximately 7000. 40 and it's around 3500. So it all depends how quickly you get to 75.

Also, it seems that if progress on your disc is made whilst you're unlocking the weapon, the points requirements can still be reduced. Say you started and obtained 4000/7000 points whilst you had a floor 20 disc, then one week we do 4 progress runs and you get 40, your requirements would drop to 3500 and you would therefore have enough and the weapon would become unlocked.

Since the update our LS has been running a Nyzul static. We cleard up to lvl 90 last night so hoping for 100 on saturday. Then before we farm armor we going to take a time out for salvage points. Not been to lucky on drops thou. 4 feet and 1 legs so far.

[djtickle]

Excitment! Just found out an old buddy from here has just started playing again.

Ill let them post, wooooooooooooooo!

[C']

Has to be Darwock or Fallows?

But WHICH!?...

I'm on the edge of my seat here...

[dataDave]

Tal.

No way can I get addicted to anything again.

At the same time I'm thinking of paying for a month so I can retain my characters. I quite like lvl60 and still have loads of stuff to catch up on for that lvl.

WHM+BLM would be pimp by now if I hadn't defected to WoW.

I forgot about Talizker (and he was secretly my favourite out of those 3 names - does that fix my gaff?

[talizker]

hmmmm, not me yet.

(no offence taken Rare!)

D?

[C']

Well it must be Darwock then. And he was secretly my fav...

Ah this could go on all day.

Everyone should just come back and we can be done with it. That includes Apathye and Moot (silly WoW playing scabs).

Could it be Wedge? Then again, maybe it's best not to after Tox has been in control of the character for a while

mwhahahahhhaha i cant hold it in

Hes got a new char, starting again!

[talizker]

Yay Wedge! (we chatted about FFXI on MSN a few weeks back when Wedge started playing Warhammer Online...).

I didnt realised Apa and Moot were on WoW now.

[C']

Yes. Moot pretends to be having fun whilst playing WoW but I know better.

IT SUCKS!!!!

And that's my totally 100% unbiased opinion based on playing it for less than 2 weeks over 3 years ago.

Hey guys,

I was browsing fileplanet.com and noticed the 14 day trial, something just told me to dl it and give it another go.

I have tried all the big new mmo's and they are all such a dissapointment, so im going to see how the 14 days go.

It was strange, first thing I did in game was look up my old character, starting chatting to Tox on Wedgemoon, it was a bit weird.

I will post my new character name in a bit, I cant remember what it was, I was stuck thinking for a name so I just named it after some European Tennis player I was watching on tv.
