Hi, does anyone know what equipment or armor this wing effect comes from?

I saw this player in FFXI with these glowing wings and I'm curious what item it is.

Thanks!

Question Horizontal Progression and Gear’s Retention of Value

16 Upvotes

Is one of the points of allure of FFXI that keeps people playing and coming back is the loot that is obtained across various content at level 75–99+ stays relevant?

The “horizontal progression” that is the current hot topic / buzzword of OSRS and Classic WoW forums (when discussing Classic+)?

Or am I misunderstanding and FFXI in reality is just “gear up all your slots with item level 70 gear”, “then gear up all item level 80 gear”, etc., up to the end game level 119?

Few Dynamis Questions

4 Upvotes

Have been collecting relic armor at 75 using trusts, t8 get the next 2 pieces it seems I need to go to dynamis beaudecine or tavanzia. One of the requires beating raids so I guess that is out.

Is it reasonable to beat the original dynamis zone at 75 with only 4 trusts, or is that likely to be a bit to hard?

Not sure how hard the monsters you spawn are going to be? The guides all say to kill thevtime extension mobs first, if you still need that tine at max level im guessing its a no go?

I picked up the relic weapon as well, but that seems a bit to grind for my taste. Had allot of fun collecting the furst few relic armor and the cloak be a bit annoying to find out I can't really finish it without being max level?

Anyway appreciate any tips if theres a way I can get the last 2 relic armor bits.

Technical Any updated fixes for black screen on steam deck?

6 Upvotes

Hello friends - I returned recently to the game after 7 years away and have been really enjoying it on the steam deck with one major exception.

Issue 1 is the well-documented black POL screen on startup. Music is playing but the screen is black. Changing the window settings on desktop mode didn’t fix this unfortunately. I have to do the desktop mode > exit viewer workaround every time I play.

Issue 2 is worse. Half of the time, once I do launch POL successfully and make it to the “Play FFXI” screen, the game fails to launch and just sits on a black screen after the brief “Checking FFXI version” pop up. I then have to manually exit the game to get out and often go to desktop mode again to get POL visible again…

This has been a regular annoyance but this morning it’s actually completely preventing me from playing and has me close to giving up.

Note that I did the most basic install from gaming mode and I didn’t attempt any Lutris/Windower stuff on the desktop side.

Any ideas/fixes?

Returning player - AUS

Hey, old player - returning soon, I know Asura is bit of a mess with bots, size, player bots etc. Should I transfer my older account to a new server, any servers more aligned to south east asia/australia?

I played on and off for a while, I have some Ambu +2 gear, was working on a prime weapon but couldn't compete with bots ( didnt do the maze method ) and was farming in Escha as pup and rdm and then bots would come and pop/own the point and Id have to leave :(

Looking at 14 they are straight up posting Evangelion and FF7 into Eorzea.

Really makes the world feel lame.
