  1. #1

    after you select your character and where you set your allegiance the game will drop you in one of the 3-4 areas inside your country. (IE Windurst,Bastok, &San D'oria are countries)

    The game won't drop you in an area where you can be attacked ... but good news, at lvl 1 you can't loose your lvl

    after that its up to you what to do

Chuck Noblet: Wrong and no. Anyone else? Chip? Chip: That the mighty warrior Achilles was killed by a small cut to his ankle. Chuck Noblet: Chip is wronger. OK, here it is. The tragic irony of the Trojan War is that though it was fought over Helen, who was young and beautiful, by the time they rescued her ten years later, she was old and ugly. Tina: But wasn't recovering the king's wife reward enough for the Greeks? Chuck Noblet: Tina, an ugly woman is never a reward.

    yes after lvl 1 each time you die you loose a small percent of exp.

    as your lvl increases so does the amount of exp you loose when you die. Raise Raise II and Raise III all help reduce the amount of exp lost and time it takes to become unweakened.

    But don't be worried about it, there is also a way to get exp bonuses.

    You lose 10% exp after lvl 4. Raise will not restore any Exp until lvl 10ish..not sure exactly, but around the part where you lvl in valkurm..you will get 25% exp back if you get Raise 1..just not under 10 for sure. After lvl 50 Raise II gives back i think 50 or 75% exp back, and Raise III 90%. Theres no fear in delvling for the most part unless you just lvled o.o

    Don't worry *too* much about dying. Most of the time, lying there and waiting for a raise is gonna take more time than simply going back to your HP (home point) and running back to where ever it was that you were fighting. Of course this only applies to places where an HP is close at hand. But yeah, I died a bunch in the beginning when I was soloing by myself. So yeah, don't worry too much about it.

    I think I've regained the level I lost when I died every time when I got Raise. Don't worry about it. In the early levels when the whitemage in your party don't have raise, you lose just an insignificant amount of exp. Later, when you lose a significant amount of exp, whitemages always have some sort of raise, which reduces the exp you lose a lot. Be prepared for a bit of grinding though, you'll have to if you want to get though the cool missions.

    Your'e welcome. When you start, you most likely won't have to worry about that for a lil' bit, but don't forget to set your home point (for if/when you do die). There is also soooo much besides leveling you can do as soon as you start the game. I hope you enjoy it.

    Dying and exp loss are only really issues in Dynamis or HNM fights (vs the nasty ones or if your HNMLS really really sucks.) Beyond that you shouldn't worry about death too much. Whatever you lose can be regained in a matter of time.

    As for what the game is like early on. It's mostly solo to 10. Then after then your in a party for the rest of your leveling career to 75. Lest you go BST. Then you can solo to 75 without ever once getting in a party. Well unless you just suck as a BST. Like me. <.<

    I'm still only 18. >.>

    Granted I've long since grown tired of playing it. I much prefer PUP or DRG soloing to it. Well not so sure on PUP since thier last nerf. It'll be near impossible to take EM+ or some DC now. T_T
