Ugh, the paladins back in the day sucked. At least in the shells I was in.
When my warrior was up to snuff, I would tank the monks because the paladins were too much of a pussy to do it.
Before the /sam buffs, I would do I war/nin. Pulling, kiting, DD, and tanking the adds, while the paladin, if you were ever in OrangeLS, know who I'm talking about. Just how many years have you been playing?

Drac, you remember my old character, right?
Also, I opened a PM from drac, and it was safe!

Since just after Ps2 release? I took time off a few times, for as long as a year and half at one point

I still remember where I met my first friend in FFXI, center of the road, about three yalms from the Bastok Markets gate in South Gustaberg. I rememeber the first person I met in XI was a pld that saved me from Yagudo aggro outside Windurst. Died anyway because I aggroed it again after he left because HURRR HOW DOES I BLACK MAGE.
Ended up in the same Dynamis ls as him a couple years later. I miss this being a common thing. It's how I met a lot of friends/links hell members back in the day. I had a chance to be the older player helping the new guy in XIv the other day. Newbie asked me for help outside Limsa, but I missed their /tell because I was ignoring the jingle because the RMT were out in full force. Felt like crap for ignoring them like that. ._. I don't see as many people needing help, or even outside doing stuff in general in XIV. :/ All the instancing is great but since there's really nothing going on outside dungeons, unless you're fate grinding, the world feels so much less alive.
Also, I wish there was some way to fix the RMT spammage... it's the worst case of them I've ever experienced. :<

Hate hate HATED Terra's staff paladins! Even when they were running from Kirin they sucked!
I used to use Dual Macuahtls as war/nin to kite him This reminds me of the night I took over the BLM party and sleeping duties on PUP/SCH because our main RDM was sick...
Also the night I pissed me LS leader off by going PUP instead of SAM to a Kirin pop and did more damage than the mages with my PUP nukes...
*stares off into space* Pup used to be the go to job for nukes, because enmity from the auto didn't transfer to the master - loved it for things like early ZNMs. Took me months to finally get my leader to realize that. With how many bad PUPs we had in the shell as well as his general stigma towards the job it was near impossible to get "permission." Even then I think I was the only one normally allowed on the job and it was because I was super flexible about changing subs/duties.

Big reason I really enjoyed Hunts See, I enjoy the idea behind hunts but... it really just felt the same. There was cooperation, and it happened in the open world... but it was really just a horde catching wind of the next pop and then moving out to it in the largest train possible.
Granted I caught mid/late versions of the Hunt so I guess my opinion is likely very skewed.

I used to merit with a Pup main, and his auto was already better than most whms for healing the party, and he could dismiss and recall for a fresh auto, no down time.
Plus Pummel has amazing for pup even then

I enjoyed the open world part since we went to areas we normally didn't. I hope they give us lots of hunt mobs and treasure hunts to do in the expansion
Also everyone here owes me 2m for my airship fund

I loved soloing stuff on DNC, I sucked as PUP/DNC for some reason. Preferred PUP/NIN.

"It should have been MNK's. PUP didn't deserve it!"

and yea, I kinda hope there's more for groups to do in the open world rather than in instances for Heavensward.

PUPs couldn't do anything themselves. That's why they had puppets do all their work for them. Lazy good for nothin's....

Monk got Ascetic's Fury, which used to be pretty beastly. People just sucked with weaponskill gear, and pup needed something to make it viable to even play.

Hey, I was happy to take up the refresh *** status. I was one of the most effective RDMs there was! Just looky my RDM strategy guide on FFXIclopedia:

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
