  • Dark Knights...........

    So still waiting for ffxi, anyways, im looking to be a Elvaan Dark Knight as my main class when i start playing this game, I like the name as wellas i think its the class that will fir my character and my style of playing the most. anyway my question is, if im going to be a dark knight which is the best 'area' to go for as my home? windhurst etc, as i dont wanna be clogged up with too many other DK cause ive read how some areas are clogged with tarutaru's and people are finding it hard to link up with other classes of characters?plus i take it tarutaru's are best at being mages, whereas galks are better warriors(?), so is an elvaan dark knight a good combination? i mean who would take in a tarutaru warrior to their party? or is that not possible?

    plus whats this the ring? what combinations are there to obtain this ring? ie tarutaru in windhurst or hume in san'doria?]

    any help is appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!

      windurst > tarutaru+mithra
      sandoria > elvaan
      bastok > hume+galka

      your starting city doesn't matter at all, actually. just pick the place that is the most appealing to you. the item you get for starting at your race's home town is a nice little add, but not a neccessity.

      in order for DRK quest to open up for you, you need to level 1 of your basic job up to 30. by the time you become that high, you can travel to any starting town you want easily by chocobo. and you can level your DRK where ever you like.
      There are painters who transform the sun into a yellow spot,
      but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence
      transform a yellow spot into the sun.

        can you start with DRK straight from the start or do you have to wait til your at level 30 before it becomes available to you, is that what your saying, or is it case of to do those quest relating to dark knight you have to be level 30? and whats with the starting towns, as in you can travel to any of them easily with a chocobo? if your not level high does it make it difficult to travel anywhere? and can u only level certain classes in certain places cuz you say i can level my DRK anywhere once i reach level 30?!?!

        sorry if i seem dumb, im not sure i see exactly what you're saying!! sorry.

          And what Jei said, you must level up any job to 30 and have completed the advance quest IN ORDER to use said advanced quest.

            hey I aint no n00b ive been playing final fantasy for over five years now, and i own all of them bar 3 which hasnt been released here in the Uk, so please dont tell me im a n00b, i know alot about xi, been looking it up for the past year, just trying to get more knowledge on how to do things in the game, this game is gonna be huge, every1 is a n00b at some point, and i expect with the updates etc everyone will be a n00b at all times. dont mock people who overtake in exp and level because they may play the game alot more than you.

            sorry to seem agro, its just i aint no n00b to final fantasy.

              Yeah you gotta hit lvl 30 first to be able to do an advanced job quest i think. Check out the job quest thing on this site.

                really, the only jobs that ever appealed to me where Paladin and Dark Knight, they are just so cool (I don't even like the EXP jobs as much as these two)

                      just so you know darud..all your final fantasy skills mean pretty much dick in ffxi this wont be like any ff your used to..the closest game to it I think would probably be EverQuest, like a mix of EverQuest and a little bit of tactics..not to be rude

                        Pretty straight forward answers:

                        YES, you HAVE to be level 30 in a main job before you can even be a DRK. That's just the requirement for it. (I suggest Warrior, easiest to do the quest to be a DRK with it at 30)

                        You can travel and level your character ANYWHERE, there is no certain places only certain classes can go...or else haivng parties would be pointless, because you'd have a whole party of WHM, or PAL...and that's just retarded.

                        chocobos can be obtained at later levels, 22 i think...You get a license, which is a quest to obtain that, then you can get a chocobo and travel all over the world...Airships also are a means of travel. Anyone and Everyone can ride Chocobos.

                        Hope this clears a few up, Good Luck. (And yes...its true....even if you had FF1-10 memorized, and could act out every scene...it won't help you 1 bit in this game, as it is an MMORPG...not just an RPG. very different....and EQ(everquest) is probably closest comparison yes...good game EQ...bad graphics tho)

                          Ya, what swiftblade said, FF past smarts will do jack squat in this game. Its plain and simple if you havnt played it you are new, dont know anything/much. I know some since ive been playing but not all because im still low lv and cant read most JP but still know a decent amout like how to Renkie, Marco and Taunt and so on and some stoy line. All i have to tell you is DRK and Elvaan dont mix. Worst dex class with a scythe and the delay on that scythe is 480+ so like 3-4 sec delay. i tried it with my war and it was miss,miss,miss,miss,45,miss,miss,40,miss and so on. Those misses feel like forever too. You can find out the hard way though.

                          Have fun anyway.

                              MAK: Elv has nothing to do with it. Every race misses like crazy if they don't have the right equipment. People think that they should boost their attack as a damager. This is wrong, you go with accuracy. Boost DEX in everything that you can at lower levels until you can boost Acc (–½’†), then boost Acc. Also, the reasons for your missing is simple. WAR's skill with scythe are low enough even when capped, which I'm assuming yours isn't. With low skill, don't even dream of hitting, which is why it's important to A) use primarily the weapons that your class is meant to be using, and B) take time off from levelling to skill up your weapon skills.

                              Back on topic: Elv and Galka are probably the best DRKs in the game (Galka is good because they have high HP which helps the darkness skill). Had I known before that I would be so into DRK as I am now, I probably would have picked Elvaan (Galka is too.......... you'll know when you see one in action (and running) :p ). As it is now, it's too late for me to go back, so I look on the bright side. At least I'll never be at the bottom of the "desirable list" for any job
