Hi everyone @_@ I'm thinking of starting up FFXI again (I played just low level before and canceled). My question is... How many people are low lvl/lvling up still? Am I going to have a hard time lvling up from lvl 1? Is it going to be hard to find groups if I dont have a set of friends already? @_@

Thanks

Nah, there are always people leveling lower level jobs.

I will tell you, it isn't as easy as it was 4 years ago when EVERYONE was new. You might have 2-3 parties' worth instead of 5-8. But in a way, that's a good thing. Even though those sought-after jobs (WAR/PLD/NIN + WHM pre-41... PLD/NIN + RDM/BRD/COR + RDM/WHM/SMN post-41) are played a bit less, it's still possible to get PTs if you don't mind waiting for a healer/tank/refresher to come online. (And by God, there are a LOT of CORs and BLUs!)

That being said, there are always people levelling lower-level jobs for subs or fun or whatnot. Not as many as in the past, but enough so that PTing is still available at every level.
