01-Updates
---This Guide's History---
Version 1.25
Tons And Tons Of Stuff
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Jobs, Equipment, Magic, and Weapon Skills sections
I will say that my armor section is pretty much 85% complete. However, because
of vacations, projects, and school commitments, getting on my e-mail bi-daily
is very hard. Even weekly is hurting my time. If my you dont get a response
right away, I'm very sorry.
I have added in some of the weapon skills and corrected some messups in the
magic section. So all is well there.
Aside from that, I am also sorry for lack of recent updates. It has been ~3
months since last update. Hopefully I will get back on a better scedule when
summer comes. Maybe I can even get an update out soon fnishing up the armors
and weapon skills.
On a lighter note, this is the 1 year aniversary of this FAQ. And that is why I
bothered updating so much in the course of a week. Be glad, as I used valuable
PT hours working on this.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version 1.20
More Armor Updates And 2 Patches
Inclides: N/A
Expands On: Jobs and Equipment sections
Well, almost all of the armors are in, making my list for armor about 70-80%
complete. The Lv75 Cap was also added in a recent patch. I have also shown max
stats in the Jobs section to reflect lv75. Also other random stuff.
And please, I put a lot of time into it. Check out my armor section. It is
probably the most complete armor section out of any website. The only things it
doesn't show are the jobs that can use it and if it has a (Rare) or (EX) sign
next to it. :p
Sorry about the lack of updates. I havn't had the time to sit and work on this
in the past couple months or so.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version 1.15
Been Real Busy
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Starting Up, Jobs, Magic, Equipment, Special Thanks sections
I swear I had to copy down 700+ different types of armors. When you look at the
Equipment section now, you may have a much more understanding of how much
equipment is in this game. And I havn't even added more weapons yet. However, I
am not done with armors. I have only done most body armors, head armors, back
armors, and shield armors. I need to do the other sections. If you can
contribute weapons and stuff not found in the auction house, that would be
great. Basically, weapons and armors that you cannot trade. And if someone
wants to contribute a list of all of the swords or any type of weapon, that
would help out a lot.
I also did some minor Magic section changes. Magic things have been changed
from numbers to roman numerals to better reflect how they look in the game. For
instance, Fire 2 will now say Fire II. I also made some summon corrections and
some corrections on Job Abilities and added a few more commands in the Starting
Up section. And...last but not least...I changed some things in the AF section
to make it easier to read.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version 1.10
Searching Vana'diel
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Mog House and Areas sections
I finally included a new part to my guide...Areas. This is where I explain
about the different areas in the world. While I have explored a lot, I need
some descritions on places. The other thing I added was my thing on the mog
house. It was just a thing (not in the game that I made up) that people were
requesting -- How to go into other moghouses. I wonder if it will ever reach
S-Es doorstep.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version 1.05
I Have The US Version
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Guilds section
I only have one major change with this guide...I have the US version. And many
others do now. This will make info. gathering easier to say the least.
My character is as follows:
Handle: Altimo
Characters: Altimo (Ragnarok)
My other things I have to add is that I added some info on generally what
guilds are. While it isnt super large...it is some.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version 1.00
A Lot Of Armor
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Equipment and Starting Up sections
Well, I got more armor in my guide now including the RSE equip and the
starting rings for each country. I am still waiting to introduce other random
info into my guide. I have a lot of info, but it is either jumbled up in
everything or it is not complete.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .95
E-Mails Give Influence
Inlcudes: Areas
Expands On: Besidary and many different areas (cant remember which exactly)
In this I added where you can find NPCs for World Passes. Im also added some
random corrections. As you may notice, this is version .95. Version 1.00 will
not be like a normal guides version 1.00. Instead, it is just like a normal
checkpoint much like any one of my other updates. My guide still is not
complete and I will needed to add a lot more to it. I may actually make an
item guide in the future. If you want to know what that will be ablout, e-mail
me. The Areas section is not yet started.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .90
Finishing Up Some Needed Points
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Jobs section.
I finally added the last two advanced job quests (SMN and SAM). And I included
more detail on the main races. There are also a few minor changes here and
there. Mostly things having to relate to the Benchmark 2 program.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .85
Some Good Changes
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Weapons+Armor and Magic sections.
This version I added some summon spells in the magic section under summons. I
Also changed where ever it said "LVL" to "Lv" to make it easier to read. The
weapons section has more weapons and some corrections. I also added in Armors!
However, since there is more infromation, it is a bit jumbled, but in its right
place. Check it out if you dont understand what I'm saying. But it was a lot of
additions. Hours of typing...gah.
We also now know that FFXI will be released on the HDD Pre-downloaded for $99.
That only applies to the PS2 version.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .80
Im Running Back On Track Again
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Weapons+Armor, FAQ, and Special Thanks sections.
I added in how you can decode your score for the benchmark test in the FAQ
section. I also added all of the AF stats (thanks to RPGdemon and some others).
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .75
Some Good News, Some Bad
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Story, Conquest, and Classes sections.
Well, lets start off with the good news. The good news is that the update fills
in the rest of the advanced jobs (besides SUM quest). I also added the "History
of Vana'deil" in the story section and the "History of Conquest" in the
Conquest section.The bad news is that the money needed for the game is a bit up
in price. Now we know that there is a free 30-day trial, which is a good thing.
But now the price is upped from $10 per month, to $12.95. But there is more.
Each extra character is $1 and Tetra Master is now $1. Oh well. If I have to
pay it to play, I most definatly will. But this was somewhat to be expected.
The Japanese monthly fee is around $13. Either way, I think it is worth it. It
isnt much more money. Especially if you have been saving up for the US version
for a while ($329 saved up for me).
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .70
For The lv70 Cap
Includes: N/A
Expands On: FAQ, Classes, and Magic sections.(By a lot!)
I added Black Magic and White Magic to this version. I also added the time you
need to use Abilities and so on. Dragoon Job quest is added and Dragoon,
Paladin, Bard, Dark Knight, Ranger, Beastmaster, and Samurai jobs were added. I
also upped the jobs level cap to 70 because of the patch on Thursday. Some new
questions were added in the F.A.Q.s
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .65
Character Creation
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Starting Up section.
I just decided to do a Startup of the game sub-section. I had planned on it
before, but I finally decided to go with it after I found out they were the
same for the Japanese version and the US version. It is a very small section
right now, however.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .60
Quite a Bit of Changes
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Servers and Magic sections.
The Magic section was expanded a bit. There is lots of info I got from
people/websites. I added songs mostly.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .55
Some Changes Made
Includes: N/A
Expands On: Special Thanks, Magic, and Beastidary sections.
Most of the changes were very small. Just spelling/grammer mistakes for the
most part. Other minor changes. That is why it was only upgraded by .05 points.
I just want to say that I need all the help I can get. My spell checker needs
to get fixed. That is one reason I cant send this through a spell-checker.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Version .50
First Version
Includes: How To Use This Guide, Updates, The Story, Starting Up, The Basics,
Conquest, Missions + Quests, Classes, Servers, Linkshells, Guild/Side
Activities, Magic, Weapons + Armor, Weapon Skill, Special Effects, Moghouse,
Tetra Master, Beastidary, FAQ, Special Thanks, and Closing sections.
Expands On: N/A
I am not complete on a few sections of my guide. It is mostly a work in
progress, but atleast it provides some info that is not already posted in the
GameFAQs archive.
