Cool spots to c

vampz · 01-18-2007, 09:42 AM

Can anyone tell me some spot that are really cool to go and see, ive seen a few spots and love what ffxi put into them. Any hlp would be great ty.

Bostineaux Obliette is especially nifty. You can get there via the basement of the Chateau in Sandy!

Seriously though, there are many, many zones worth checking out for their beauty alone. You should just pull up FFXIAtlas, and explore as much as you can! :D

Oh, and don't actually go to the Obliette alone and at your level. You'll die horribly.

I love the mushrooms (i.e. spore hollow in jugner forest, the flower garden at the chateau in sandy, Zi-tah is nice as well O and promies, i just love the sci-fi wasteland feel and music

I always liked taking the ferry on Carpenter's Landing.

If you can get to the Alzadaal Undersea Ruins, I think it has a very Star Wars-esque feel. Plus, it is fun to watch the fishies swim and the octupus crawl along the mystical barrier

FWIW I think our LS will hold all of our meetings there from now on. I just don't think that zone can be beat in terms of beauty.

Lufaise Meadows/Misareaux Coast and the Promy zones are good if you have access. If not then Purgonorgo Isle off Bibiki Bay is nice.

I've never done that before. I should go there.

Upper level of Heaven's Tower; moody music and lighting.

Murphie · 01-18-2007, 12:46 PM

I especially enjoy the guest mog house in Windurst. It's so fancy!

Mhurron · 01-18-2007, 01:06 PM

Pretty much all the CoP zones look fantastic.

Mog · 01-18-2007, 01:37 PM

A really cool zone. (if you can get there alive) is hall of the gods. I go there whenever I just feel like sitting somewhere. In terms of most-favorite zones....

1. Lufaise Meadows (variety of mobs)
2. Hall of the Gods (no mobs)
3. Oldton Movalpolis (moderately leveled mobs
4. Ro'maeve (dangerous to all levels)
5. Sanctuary of Zitah (moderate leveled mobs)
6. Ronfaure (safe)
7. Arrapeggo Reef (will aggro regardless of level)
8. Castle Zhavl (dangerous)
9. Mhaura
10. Aydeewa Subterrain (will aggro regardless of level)

There's many more that I could list, but to me, these 10 are the most amazing places to visit, from my experience.

Skoal · 01-18-2007, 01:55 PM

Mhurron is right. I like Oldton Movalpolos. Funny music and dumb gobs/mobs.

Mhurron · 01-18-2007, 02:00 PM

I always liked Attohwa Chasm

In addition to the above list, I'm personally fond of:

Dragon's Aery (extremely high aggro rate, even to 75) has a very pretty pond guarded by a Demonic Rose.

Kazham (love the sparkly flowers at night).

The Manaclipper ride through Maliyakaleya Reef has some really stunning coral reefs.

Last but definitely not least...

By FAR the coolest zone in the game is Empyreal Paradox, which is the final battle arena for the Chains of Promathia storyline. I believe anyone who has completed Chains of Promathia will agree with me on this.

I still need to go to Lufaise and get the shot of the city ruins.
Also, I really like the tunnel in Tu'lia, right when you zone in. The translucent bridge is really cool.
Just to reiterate, Alzadaal is awesome. I stood in the room with the Runic Portal and watched the window for like 20 minutes one time. People who say the graphics suck in this game are nuts.
