The new npcFollow

#1 Jul 20 2005 at 2:21 AM Rating: Default
Personaly I think SE really flopped on this one. The npc is useless. You zone you lose him. He dies you lose him, You even click on him and he leaves. Not to mention you can only call him once every 20 hours. I can understand the 20 hours if he dies. But 20 hours just for zoning into a new area? They could have atleast done like what they did with wyverns and and let you call em back if they leave with full hp. I wasted 5 hours of my day for this crap? Good job SE you did it again

still beneficial uses I'm sure... such as calling it up when in the desired zone for solo exp... or perhaps BCNM's..

Oh don't get me wrong krem I love the fact they added it. But they went quit over board on the conditions. Anyways I'm going to sleep I'm to disappointed to stay up or even play FFXI.

My god, people complain about everything. Have you thought that if you didn't just have to have it the first day after the update that you wouldn't have wasted 5 hours of your day? Sure there are things that could be tweaked about it. I'm just sick of hearing people b**** and moan about everything. It gets old... quick.

Had ankle surgery in June. I'm just now getting to where I can walk (more like hobble). I was hopping with crutches for the longest time.

I actually had fun playing around with the NPC, and I really hope SE makes them more available because they could be a REALLY fun thing to work on while you're lfg or just want to do something with them. They level up, get new modes, get new equipment, it's great. But they need to make the earring recharge 5 hours at MAX. And leaving after 30 minutes or 1k exp is really stupid. Even at level 30, imagine how many times you would have to call them if they left after 1k exp, just to level them up. It would take forever.

Daison, from what i understand, getting your NPC from 30 to 31, generally takes about 3 calls so i dont think that they go by the same XP tnl as we do.

Notwithstanding, peep out my thread about "Using your NPC"... it's got a link to a thread I found which looks to be a collective of info regarding all things NPC! Interesting stuff!!

Clearly, research on this will be slow coming due to the recast time, but it does appear to be much more than meets the eye. A lvl 75 NPC?.. hmm.. imagine the possibilities!!

EDIT: BTW, Thank you Daison! Your good deeds are remembered by those who will reciprocate when the opportunity arises^-
