Btw, anyone know where i can pick up a cheap copy of FFXI for ps2? wanna DL it to my ps3. Havn't seen anything under 40 on amazon ect.


I don't think you'll be able to find them cheap anywhere.

You might be able to try this guide by Kohan over at BG. I didn't really read it too much since I absolutely cannot play on the PS2 version, but it's worth a shot. All Final Fantasy XI PC Updates & PS2 Disc Backups

Yes it is. Have a scholar use Libra and you will see that all the melee will be at 99% enmity and the one that attacked last will have 100%

It's not really something they need to use, but basically in Abyssea your stats are so jacked up that pretty much anyone can tank. Except paladins because SE hates them.

Thieves and Monks are main tanks now, pretty much anyone else that can hold hate tanks too. White mages are main healers again because they're the only ones that get cure 6. The state of the game is awful but it's a lot easier to do everything by yourself or with really low amount of people.

If you're fighting easy monsters, like in GoV or Abyssea, of course you don't need a tank. No one is really in danger, so melee can go all out, and paladins don't bother with /WAR. But in situations that call for a tank, like NM battles, missions, normal exp parties, etc, you gotta have a tank and it is usually a NIN or PLD. Enmity is still very well balanced, but the nature of certain battles has definitely changed, with more emphasis on killing easy monsters fast in a lot of scenarios. Yet, fighting NMs is a lot more common now, and GL trying to do that without a tank.

But all that is beside the point. The point is that FF14 does not ever provide enjoyable balanced battles that FF11 often does.

So when I start a fight by using asuran fists right away, and pull hate from the tank, the tank is a bad player? I knew it!

Besides, the game has a NM called Megamaw Mikey, or something. How can you hate a game with that?!

For fights that need a tank, someone buys a brew and kills it in a minute. XI is a mess and doesn't have fun battles anymore.
