BRB AFK

So yeah. I'm on some sort of half-official break. I'm going to log on for Nyzuls, I think, and anything else that sort of sounds half interesting maybe if Brimah tells me it's going on, but nothing else. No soloing or sitting around waiting for stuff or halfhearted ls events The past five days or so on the game have just been pretty miserable

No break from leveling BLM when I make pts!! No miss nyzul when I'm still around too! You can have a 2 week break soon!

I always think breaks from FF11 is a good idea, especially if you are unhappy when you play. The longest break I took from FF11 was on a month and in the end I was missing FF11 ^^; But I sense that people who do a lot of end game stuff get burned out faster than players that don't do end game. =x

I can totally understand this - lately I've been getting so frustrated with the way things are going in a game that used to make me so happy. I can never get merit parties unless I make them (which is hell) or if i know somebody in one and somebody drops. I can't get any good endgame armor because Nyzul is friggin hard for my group and I have a Nin and 2 people who play Blu to compete with for Denali gear anyway and my ZNM shell just crapped out because people didnt show up. Hell I can't even get a joyeuse because all my "social linkshells" become considerably more antisocial when I get on - not that I come on and pester people for help - but I feel like I can't even ask because theyre always preoccupied with something else or theyre very untalkative so I feel uncomfortable asking for assistance. I'm starting to feel like I have to lvl a different job other than the one I really like (Dnc...) for a more universally accepted job because the feeling of going nowhere just makes the job less fun :(

Sorry to hear that, Ere. Breaks are a good idea, though as other posters have stated; especially for end gamers. I've found that I actually enjoy the game more after taking a semi-break; probably because stress is less of an issue when you've had time to recuperate from long periods of it.

If you happen to try any other games during your break, that may be helpful too. I'm finding out myself that other games are a great source of relief; even if it's only for short trial periods.

I hope you're able to get some good R&R and that you're doing better soon.
