Surely you meant XII?

It's a toss up between XII and XIII really. They are very similar to me. I think I enjoyed XIII more, but don't remember much of XII. All the PS2 era games I played on an emulator, never really got the "authentic" experience.

I mean, if you want to say the "MMO styled offline RPG game" the mind clearly goes to FFXII.

If you mention FFXIII though I fail to see it? I guess with the Grand Pulse thing and the questing/hunting maybe? Bit of a stretch to say that's MMO-styled though

How much influence does killing Archaic Mirrors and NMs have on these numbers?

Noooo idea, this is just info I've logged from my LS mule, which is always online to facilitate a discord relay, it announces Besieged updates in LS too and it logs to file when it captures one of those events. If people genuinely cared enough about this (this data is just from a silly project I did to help those in my LS who haven't done TVR yet), I could expand it to collect data on mirrors at least but there's no way of knowing if a NM is dead without going and looking tmk.

Great data. May I ask, since you can have captured this data and can practically predict future attacks, is there any way to put this into an addon so people can just sit and watch the expected time a Besieged is going to happen? Something like Dynamis-D tracker website/WhereisDI etc where you countdown: Next Besieged >> Mamool Ja Savages >> 14~15 hours Like an on-screen widget that reads Besieged Map (or predicts based on pattern) data and tells you when it thinks Besieged may happen. I mean, nothing wrong with checking /bmap 50 times a day, but I have absolutely no idea how long it takes to go from Preparing Lv 2 -> 13. Sometimes hours go by and they gain 2-3 levels, other times they go from 10-13 in less than an hour. It doesn't make sense to me half the time.

It's doable, but until I had considerably more data and could say for absolute sure what was going on, it'd be a disservice to people to provide something that could be incorrect.

I assume this includes the opening and closing CS?

It does include the opening CS and the period after it says they are attacking, but the zone is loading the actual battle, it does not include the closing cutscene, as they are considered retreated as soon as they warp.

I was referring to the entire first part of the game which was an extended "tutorial" before you even get to the open world "real" game, which only took about 30 hours to complete if you rushed through it.

It felt a lot like grinding my way to level cap so I could do end game, while having my hand held the entire time.
