Polls / Double Exp Time

With the double exp weekend coming up, curious what people will be doing for it!

Plus, been a while since I put up a poll.

News / Double Exp Weekend
January 31, 2013, 04:00:14 PM
Okay...

For some bizarre reason, FFXI is going to have a double EXP weekend.  Not sure why, but...

February 8 7:00 am until February 11 6:59 am.  (PST)

This effect is before exp rings, too.

Abyssea still gives out normal exp though.

Might be a good time for Dynamis exp trials, although I'm sure everyone else will think that too.

General Posts / Heritage Trivia

In an attempt to stir up interest in the site again, a little trivia thread!

Final Fantasy XI owes a lot of its elements to the games that came before it.  So, how much do you know about the series?  We'll see...

Oh, and while I'll try to avoid them, consider this your only warning:

Spoilers May Follow

Also, I use the standard Japanese numbering system.  So if I say Final Fantasy II, I don't mean the US version.

Part 1:  Jobs!

So many jobs..  but when did the different classes first emerge?

It's fairly well known that the six starting jobs of FFXI are the exact same as the six starting classes of FF1.  FF3 and FF5 relied heavily on job systems as well.

So which game did the following jobs FIRST appear in?

Bard
Ranger
Beastmaster
Samurai
Ninja
Dragoon
Summoner
Blue Mage
Corsair
Dancer
Scholar
Geomancer

Polls / Renaming Characters
October 21, 2012, 09:06:45 PM
Just another random poll, since I haven't put one up in a while.

I usually use defaults, though I change a few of them.  Like, I tend to rename Red XIII as just Red.  I know some other people make him Nanaki.

On a related note, in some games where you can name generics, I tend to use names of friends or people I know.

News / Sept 21
September 22, 2012, 02:36:13 AM
Update on Monday, adding a few new things, like Meeble Burrows.

Still been relatively quiet on the site, we'll try to do something about that.

Looking for people who are interested in doing Einherjar for ampoules and Salvage for armors, by the way.

And just because I can, random battle snapshot!  LS folks taking down Medusa.

Lucky LS People / GW2 Server

Jess (Kallisto) wanted me to mention this so...

Several LS folk that are playing Guild Wars II are on Tarnished Coast server.  So if you're playing that, maybe check there.  Selan is there too.

This is tentative and may change later.

Been a while since I put a poll up.

Let's start with a simple one about the new jobs coming with Seekers of Adoulin.

General Posts / Remember when...
August 08, 2012, 01:46:29 PM
It's a post where we talk about how the game USED to be!

Remember all the horrors of yesteryear FFXI?

Goblin Smithies zoned to Kazham, or Yuhtunga zone, and then they'd come back and kill every party camped along the way?

What about Wingrats trains in Citadel or crawler trains in Crawler's Nest?

Seeking party for hours and having it disband because there was no Red Mage or Bard around in your level range?

An era where Haubergeons, Osodes, and Optical Hats were endgame gear?

Post more thoughts!

Been a bit on the quiet side on the site lately.  But don't think for a moment that means the LS is inactive!

I'll try to get some more posts started on here.

News / Seekers of Adoulin Announced!
June 23, 2012, 07:56:28 PM
I'm sure most of you know, but I'll repeat it here.

SE announced a fifth expansion of FFXI, Seekers of Adoulin.  It's slated to be released next year.

And, of course, a lot of the interest is about the two new jobs, Geomancer and Rune Fencer!

It's the Tenth Anniversary Celebration!

You can pick up your Decennial Rings and do some miniquests for Decennial Gear!  The female stuff is pink!

If you missed Dinner and Novennial stuff last year, you can pick that up too!

Update day~

To uncap your crafting skills for lv100, you need to buy a 20,000 GP Key Item, then turn in a signed synth, just a heads up!

Update scheduled for later this month, just a heads-up.

Congratulations to Suji for finishing Mandau and some Beastmaster for finishing Guttler!  Two more relics to add to the fairly impressive list inside the LS.

Also, reminder about the Donate button, we could use some more funding.  Even if you can only spare $5-10, every bit would help!

News / March 5
March 05, 2012, 09:43:08 PM
Couple of quick things:


  • Craft skill caps are scheduled to be increased.  Instead of 100 for main craft and 60 for a subcraft, on the test server they are currently 110 and 70.  Early reports indicate a 100k GP key item will be required to break the 100 barrier, so you hardcore crafters may want to start accumulating now!
  • Sheilah mentions that with the new Chains of Promathia and Treasures of Aht Urghan Chapters of Voidwatch, that it's likely that periapts to reduce voidstone generation time may be introduced.  Since these adjustments tinker with your voidstone stock, he suggests maybe using voiddust to generate voidstones until the update.

Polls / Font Colors
February 15, 2012, 06:14:48 AM
Another random poll.  Have you changed any of your font colors?  And if so, what to?

Personally, I have NPC chat as green, say in a dark blue, damage in bright white, landed effects on targets in green, effects I receive in pink, effects I resist in tan, resisted in a reddish orange, the "---- starts casting" in a blue, and skillup messages in a yellowish-gold.

Basically, only the chats aside from say/npc and damage I take in the default colors.

News / Feb 13 Update
February 13, 2012, 11:43:25 PM
As a reminder, there's a FFXI update today.  The most significant thing is the release of Nyzul Uncharted.  There were also some DRG related changes, some Circle/anti-family move adjustments, trials for lv 99 legendary weapons, and some other things.

Announcements..  announcements..  *flips through notes*

Ah, first off, congratulations to Ikethegreat, Zerila, and myself for finishing Black Belt!

It's amazing how some things that used to be exceedingly difficult to obtain in the past can be done with a small group of friends now.

Now, concerning relic+2 trials.

To augment relic+2 pieces, you have to gain 20000 exp in a Dynamis zone where the base piece drops.  For example, to augment Duelist's Chapeau +2, you have to fight in Xarcabard or Tavnazia.  Note that in order to store relic+2 pieces (using Storage Slip 13) you must augment them.  Slightly annoying.  Anyways, we might organize some Dyna exp farming to help people do augments.

Polls / Dynamis Wins
January 11, 2012, 02:33:58 PM
Note that, for example, if you've gotten access to Dynamis - Xarcabard but haven't beaten Dynamis Lord, you would not have the win!

As a reminder:
Sandy, Windy, Bastok, Jeuno wins required for Glacier access.
Glacier win required for Xarc access.
Diabolos (mission) win needed for CoP Dyna access.
Valkurm, Qufim, Bubu wins needed for Tav access.

News / Notes about Stratum Abyssites, and Dynamis
January 11, 2012, 02:31:05 PM
First, as a reminder about stratum abyssites:

  • You don't actually need to possess one to do a battle.  You'll still get atmacites and rewards, as long as you use Voidstones.
  • To upgrade an abyssite, you must defeat every Notorious Master the abyssite can spawn while in possession of it.  For example, to change jade stratum abyssite III to IV, you need to defeat Lord Asag and Akupara while you have III.
  • To be able to get the white stratum abyssite (Jeuno), the following requirements must be met:

    • You must have Indigo, Crimson, and Jade Abyssites at level IV.
    • You must beat Hahava, Celaeno, and Voidwrought for their titles.
    • You must have completed Cait Sith WotG mission (mission 3).
    • You must have entered Walk of Echoes from Xarcabard [ S ].
  • To get ashen stratum abyssite (Zilart), you need to visit NPCs in Norg, Kazham, and Rabao.

Additionally, I'm going to run a poll checking what Dynamis zones people need wins for.  It's possible we may try to get some people access to advanced zones sometime.

News / Weekend Plans
January 06, 2012, 02:25:26 PM
On Saturday we'll probably be doing Voidwatch, so be ready for that.

Also, we may be doing runs for Voracious Violet and Razed Ruins atmas for people sometime soon, so if you need them you might be able to pick them up.

If you have any Bukhis pop sets, I'm interested in the wings, by the way!

And finally, the next chapter of the Laliho saga will be up in a few days, been distracted by holidays and haven't felt like working on it.  Still have time to submit your vote on the discussion thread.

Happy New Year to you all!

I'm not sure of it was mentioned, but congrats to Ariamo and Dragonmstknight on Gjallarhorn and Gungnir!

I'll try to put up some more front page notices (according to the poll, seems like that's what people want.)

And now, I leave you with a scary demonstration of power:
