| Junior Member |   Considering coming back... starting from scratch?
Hello all, I played FFXI back when it first came out for about a year, but got distracted with other things and have not been back since. I've been considering playing again recently though, but I hardly remember a thing about my account, and I'm not even sure that they'd be able to retrieve it from that long ago. So my question is: would it be very difficult to start over from scratch? Most of the other posts on the board seem to suggest that players are coming back with their old characters, so I would like to ask specifically about starting with a blank slate  . I would hate to get back into the game just to be stuck soloing and bored.Any help or advice is greatly appreciated! |

Starting from scratch is easier now than before, what with this new level sync system that has been added in. Also, there's Fields of Valor for when you solo, to augment the exp gain Edit: Would link you to the articles on FFXI wiki, but... having less than 10 posts, I can't do that >.>

Fields of Valor - FFXIclopedia - a Wikia Gaming wiki Ta-da! You might get stuck soloing for longer than you would have back in the day, but soloing is a hell of a lot easier and quicker now, too.

There are many others but they were the ones i cud think of from the top of my head.
