ffxi_hades

so, i`ve been back to ffxi for about a week and a half now. i got my WHM two levels ( now @ 32 ), and raised my BRD from 24 to 32. i have two wonderful linkshells that i`m in and have had much help from the new friends i`ve made. :) i can`t believe how insane the prices are now. i went to go buy mage`s ballad ( which nine or ten months ago was about 5k ) and it is up to 100k+. so i did the quest for it instead.

anyway, my goal for now is to get bard to 40 and do some BCNMs so i can make money ( since i`m dirt broke ). i do want to take bard all the way. and eventually, i want to take WHM to 75 too, but i`m concentrating completely on bard for awhile.

other things to accomplish:
+ achieve rank 4
+ achieve rank 5
+ get RSE
+ do a gobby bag quest ( too many instruments to carry! )

Hello, everyone in Hell! ^.^ I just came back to FFXI for the first time in about 9 months. I was able to reactivate my old account and characters! So, I have an 38WHM Elvaan who I use for storage, pretty much and a 30WHM Hume which I want to start again. It's so weird picking up at level 30. And I've forgotten a lot about the game and I have a few questions.

Where should I start leveling my 30 WHM? I have updated gear for her once I hit 33. I just can't remember where to go? I remember leveling my Elvaan in Altepa from 30-34 before, but do people still go there to level @ 30? How about Crawler's Nest? From what I remember, the CN was pretty crazy!

My Hume is also a 24 BRD. Are the Jungles/Kazam still the place to go @ 24 or is there an alternative route I can take? I hate the Jungles.

Since I've left, it seems as though all the Linkshells I was in have since broken. Does anyone know a good linkshell with characters in the mid-20s to early 40s that could possibly help me with things? I need to raise my rank, do more quests, and also get my RSE 2. Can you suggest any?

By the way, my character's name is Heaveth. ;) Thanks for the help!
