Q: Did you want to be a WAR from the start ?

     Vick:I actually wanted to be a PLD, but when i heard of the War/Nin combo and thought about Dual Wield and Utsusemi, i changed my mine. Now im not sure if i should change to PLD or just stick with War/nin.

Q: Why do you think alot of players only use WAR as a sub-job?

     Vick:I think War is the best Sub-job for most non mage jobs. It gives them a defense boost, attack boost, Provoke, Berserk, Defender and its prob a sub-job you'll find a party faster with.

Q: How much does NIN add to your leveling costs?

     Vick:Ninja is killing me. If i wanna lvl War, i gotta spend 21k+ on tools for about only 2 lvl's. If i wanna lvl Ninja, i have to spend around 40k+ for Utsusemi, and all the other elemntal tools i have just to kame it easier to hold hate and you gotta have some good food, 5k for 1 Jack-o'-lantern. Ninja is a good job only if you have the money to spend on it or else you wont be a good.

Q: How long did you Camp Leaping Lizzy before you got the drop?

     Vick:WOW. That's wut i mostly did from lvl 1-35. At lvl 35 is when i got my Leaping Boots. I was 0/16 when i finally got the drop and a got picture and a video to prove it. I mostly new where it would spawn and the time cause i never camped it for more than 1 hr and about 80% of the time i camped it i would get claim.

.......Did you keep the boots or sell?

     Vick:The first thing i did was lvl my Ninja with my boots on in the dunes. I wanted to show them off. =) but since i was wearing the lvl 17 lizard armor you couldnt tell very much. Then i went straight to Jueno and sold my boots for 525k.

Q: What kind of stats do you look for on your gear?

     Vick:I look for more tank stats then damage dealing stat but i always carry food and armor if i have to damamge deal. I never have any porb damage dealing cause i save money on my Ninja tools.

Q: farming, crafting, or NM camping, how does Vick make his money?

     Vick:The Leaping Boots is wut boosted me up. I used alot of it to make more money. I did alot of fishing and tried some crafting to make money. But i make most of my money farming.

Q: how do you feel about Gil-sellers and Buyers?

     Vick:Gil-sellers and Buyers really piss me off. They make the game no fun and make it impossible for me to camp or buy armor i need or want.

Q: Whats your favorite piece of gear?

     Vick:My favorite piece of gear that I own rite nowwould either be my Warriors Belt +1 because ive been wearing it since i was lvl 15 and it has great stats or my Iron Musketeer's set because i look badass in it. My favorite piece of armor that i want to get would wither be a Kraken Club because it usually attacks 2-8 times or a Juggernaut (Axe) because it has Attack +30.

Q: Did you make any N00bish mistakes when you first started?

     Vick:One n00bish mistake i made was that i didnt know that i could party. I lvled my War to 15 solo and with my other character i lvl war to 25 with whm subbed thinking it would be like PLD.

Q: what do you hate to hear about WAR, because it just is not true?

     Vick:I alwyas hear the best tanks are either PLD or a rich Ninja. I never hear of War being a good Tank. I think they deal lots of damage to hold hate and they can be as good a tank as either PLD or Ninja.

Q: whats the most fun you have had IG?

     Vick:The most fun ive had in game was during all the LS events we've had.

Q: Any advice for new players about the game in general?

     Vick:Dont take the game to serious. Some new players will end up sleeping, eating and breathing FF11. Just take this game as entertainment and dont lvl Ninja unless you have the money to spend on it.

Q: Would you like to share any RL info with us? (upcoming events, plans, etc)

     Vick: Im at the top of the Food Chain and you'll prob see me more online now that im off from school.
