So now Iv got Sky....what is there to do in Sky?
I always thought Sky was a whole new area (seveal zones etc) but from what I can tell, Its just literally a big platform with teleports to several Sky God pop areas.
What I'm saying is, is this it? Sky is only used for Gods?

There was a time people also EXPed there (we still honestly could), but its no longer common.
Take some time to grab coffer keys and try to get the maps for all three sky zones if you can. Navigating sky can be a real pain in the ass since everything looks so similar from on area to the next. Apparently the Zilart and the Covenant have the same design theory - make an area so boring and repetitive that your enemies either (1) get bored and leave or (2) kill themselves from the insanity it creates. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-14-2007, 06:19 AM | #5 (permalink) | | Senior Veteran Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: May 2006 Posts: 4,577 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 114 Thanked 1,399x in 846 Posts Gil: 4,387 Bank: 223,341 Total Gil: 227,729 Donate | Re: Sky Like many things, the reward was in the journey, not just arriving at the destination. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-14-2007, 06:23 AM | #6 (permalink) | | FFXIWiki'er FFXIWiki Team Join Date: Sep 2006 Posts: 1,572 Style: Light - Version 6 My Mood: Thanks: 102 Thanked 39x in 30 Posts Gil: 24,990 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 24,990 Donate | Re: Sky Haha Mhurron, very good.
3 Sky zones? Wow, shows how closely I looked, I thought the 3 maps on Wiki was the same zone. But it was like 2am in the morning.
I have promised myself to go on a Coffer/Chest hunt spree at some point, Iv got like a billion keys taking up space in my MH for various zones that I need maps for and are chest/coffer maps.
But I want 75 1st :p

I bet you could get some amazing EXP there off the old weapon camps, since you wouldn't have much competition nowadays.
Also nice for EXP if you ever decide to level BST.
Other than that, it's mostly just for quests, missions, and gods... Although if you're a mage, you could try making some spare cash off Elementals. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-14-2007, 02:46 PM | #10 (permalink) | | Lightness Keeper of Knowledge Join Date: Apr 2004 Posts: 2,393 Style: Light - Version 4 My Mood: Thanks: 92 Thanked 129x in 77 Posts Gil: 10,505 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 10,505 Donate | Re: Sky If I have one piece of advice for you about sky, its to learn how to get around in all the zones
There's nothing more irritating than trying to find someone who is lost but has been to sky 230982432 times before.
Get yourself the maps if you can, better yet, find some maps online that label everything and draw lines for you so you can navigate through the teleportals. Omni@Remora: NIN75 RNG75 MNK75 COR75 BST63 BRD45

It *was* very late, and once I had been teleported up there I saw all these teleports, took a few random ones, and then warped out.
