Linkshell QueryFollow

#1 Dec 11 2010 at 10:42 PM Rating: Excellent
I won't make this post long-winded, essentially myself (RDM80,BLU80, assorted random meaningless lower jobs) and my girlfriend (BRD50, WHM50) who just started in the last month or so are looking for a linkshell. What kind of linkshell? Any kind of linkshell.

Okay, more specificity may help. We'd love a sociable, mature LS that does events. I know, I know.

Anyways, can't really be picky, what with her being only level 50, so a normal old social LS would do, but we'd love to be able to join in and do things when she's higher, (which shouldn't take long, as we've been using Abyssea to level, did 30-50 on both jobs today in 4 hours or so.)

That being said, hardcore endgame isn't for us (well it isn't for our schedule) we'd love to do Abyssea NMs (I guess we could just duo most of them as RDM & BRD at some point, but where's the fun in that.) and old events too. Edit: I realize this was a bit confusing, what I mean to say is, we'd love an LS that does events, but not one that will have our heads on a block if we can't make it.

Other than that, we wouldn't mind an LS that does Dynamis and pays its members through currency sales. I've gotten rather poor buying all of the spells/gear as we've leveled (never was very rich) so that'd be great. Obviously if this is a separate LS, I'd have to wait until my girlfriend was 65 to enter (or higher, if for some reason a 65 BRD isn't okay in Dynamis... >_> )

Anyways, thanks for anyone who has any tips! I feel odd shouting for an LS in Whitegate, so I decided to try this first.

Speaking of social LSes, what happened to GiggleSnorts, or whatever it became when it moved to Lakshmi?

Chiku quit a while back, and Delmis took over. The shell is HUGs now, but most of the original members have moved on to other games and aspects of life. Devinight and Delmis still are a part of the shell though. I go in there occasionally to chat, but I've moved on as well.


This is Aurilius in case you were wondering.

I was aware of most of that. Perhaps I misworded my question. I was wondering if Ramsey and his girlfriend were still in that LS.

I actually stopped playing for a long time, and well to make a long story short I'm not playing with the same person anymore...

But no, when I came back finally and I was on Lakshmi, my friends list was sparsely populated.

So, enough about me, haha...

It seems I found a social/Abyssea LS, now I wouldn't mind finding a Dynamis LS that pays its members through currency sales, all the Dynamis LS I keep finding are sponsored, anyone have any suggestions?

Shibby is a great friendly shell. Social, and activity oriented. It is full of awesome people, mostly ex Garudians. If you are interested look up Ziploc most likely the nicest person you will ever meet in FFXI. Miss you shibites.

I can recommend Random Chaos Club...they do events on Fridays and Saturdays. Shibby is good too...though my wife is in it and I'm not mainly because I can never find a sackholder...

I've just returned as well. I'm an ex-GiggleSnorter who loved the heck out of that shell (So many jokes...) but now I'm lost for how to find a new one.

I've brought a friend of mine in and gotten him addicted to FFXI and we're having a great time duoing but I'm already worried about how we'll handle later missions and tougher quests. I'm on the Jeuno Mission (3-3 I think?) where I need to hike up Delkfutt's Tower; and I have that and the Magicite mission between me and an Airship Pass. Are there any linkshells with people who are fun and generous enough they would be willing to help with things like missions, tougher quests, and Avatar Prime battles? Of course I would have sizable gil rewards for helping - I don't expect handouts =P My friend is new so he's only a level 17 Red Mage so far (but rising quickly!) and I never got this character too high so I'm only a level 40-something Black Mage but currently raising a Beastmaster to be my main. Of course we're going to get to a much higher level before attempting anything too difficult, but I'd like to start making friends and helping others with what I can.

Really we're looking for a group who could help keep the game from being nothing more than a mindless grind up in levels.

Any suggestions?

In response to KainK and ramsey, I too would like to find a nice sociable group after coming back from my mini-break soon. This will be probably my 4th break from the game since it's inception 8-9 years ago. This break being unfortunately at the best and worst possible time, considering the PS2 update in the Dec. patch killed my gametime until just recently when the PS2 and 360 versions got their much needed "Limited space" requirement issue fixed, so my game is playable once again :D

Problem i had prior thx to a number of situations that were beyond my control; having to take a break for 7 months before the Dec. 8 patch forcing me off, same extended break resulting in most of my friends departing along with said social/event shells, etc. So that leaves me with what you would call, a clean slate and a fresh start to get back to what I had before; a group of cool people whom which to go out, kick some tail and have some fun and making events that seem like chores just a bit more brighter to keep on doing them with.

Planning my return sometime in March/April (got a move coming up soon, new job relocation, etc.) Hopefully I can get a pearl from one of your all respective shells and take it from there.

peace b w/ you all, see you all back in March/April hopefully. Upvotes for all :D
