Looking to come back to FFXI again after a 2 year break or more and usually play for 6ish months and then leave for a while because of some RL events ruining our fun. Anyways...
Is finding a clear spot to grind an issue still on Asura? Always seemed like a never ending supply of Bots destroying good high level camps for exp grinding. Thought of starting fresh on a low pop server just to avoid any of those issues. Starting over would mean giving up 2 characters max level with most of the story stuff completed and A LOT of trusts. Thoughts or Opinions?
Our other issue is what are best setup would be. My wife likes support type GEO, SCH, BRD etc and I prefer NIN or MNK but ill play just about anything. This time we are bringing our 2 children with us (10 and 13). The 13 year old loves tanking so that is covered.
So I have support/heals filled, Tank, and 10 playing who knows what. What are the most important trusts for a team of 4? What would be the best Jobs to fill in as for me? Would we be better off letting a trust tank and adding more human dps? Our experience in ambuscade with trust tanks wasn't the best in the past.
Final question. How much content could we clear with just the 4 of us and trusts? 1 good gamer, 2 average, and 1 below average.
