It's probably very doable in SL one if cor covers slashing and piercing phase. Since the dps check in that BC isn't that high and it's mostly about survivability, which is MNK's strength.

If you like helping people, then you beat the game when they beg borrow and steal their way to the quit zone. It doesn't count unless they leave you hanging with some sort of special empty promise.

When our LS beat AV many years ago I felt as if I had beaten the game. Nothing else I accomplished after the fact gave me the same feeling or satisfaction.

In general it is stupid to talk about "beating" FFXI because of just how useless and arbitrary that is as a goal in and of itself.

"What does it take to say you've beaten the piano?"

IMO "beating" a game doesn't have any intrinsic value except for what you yourself describe it to be. Asking about "beating FFXI" just for the sake of "beating FFXI" is completely meaningless.

I personally agree with earlier posters' goal-oriented responses: my goal for the majority of this game's lifespan was to obtain Ryunohige. After that, there have been numerous other goals I have set for myself in order to get stronger. It's an iterative process, but never a terminating one until you get bored and quit.

But to answer OP's original question...

ok, in my ls we got talking and this came up.
"what does it take so say you beaten ffxi?"
so taking this question to players who know abit more then we may have.
the issue is, we want to exclude expansions and add ons. just the core game and updates to said core game. any content that requires an expansion, even if not part of that expansion itself wouldnt count.
id say leave out side Quests as that would be a big list to sort though.

thanks for any info you call can give.

It seems implicit that you and your LS don't care about the MMO-ness of the game, but care to treat the game like a typical Final Fantasy game. In that case, honestly I would say it's just beating the Shadow Lord for the first time. That's really the main story of the main, core game. If you treat this as a traditional video game, everything else the game has to offer is to get you through that questline.

You may also opt to treat FFXI like a competitive sport.

What does it mean for somebody to be the World-Champion of chess? What does it mean to be the all-time World-Champion of chess?

You can interpret it as, "if any single person on this planet challenged you, you would always win."

It's not immediately clear to me what this means in FFXI terms, since this is a team-oriented game and not all roles/jobs are directly comparable. If I had to guess, "being the all-time World-Champion of FFXI" would be:

For every job in the game, for every ROLE that job might take, nobody on any server could outperform you. For example, all buffs equal, nobody could outparse my DRG, nobody's Healing Breaths would be stronger than my own, nobody's survivability would surpass my own.

You can immediately see why thinking of FFXI on these terms is beyond stupid.

I think you're looking at it from your micro perspective. Beating an RPG is relative to the player. Personally; I don't think and RPG can be won. The day we started playing the game beat us anyway.

Sorry my bad! I was giving my thoughts regarding Afania's Kirin parses playing vanilla, then I noticed after posting the thread was near 100 days old and felt dumb for not noticing...
