Coming back, character reactivation?Follow

#1 Jul 17 2009 at 3:57 PM Rating: Decent
Well, I used to play here on Pandy a little over 2 years ago. When I left I had a level 50-55ish RDM, name Qespadz, as my main. I quit because I had a lot going on in my life, relationship issues, full time college, a job and two kids, and just didn't have the time. Fast forward two years, I have graduated and settled down a bit and started getting the itch to come back. I thought I would have to start over, but it is letting me "reactivate" my character, hopefully it will be the same way it was when I quit. Does anyone have any experience with this?

I haven't really kept in touch with anyone I used to play with, so I don't know if any of my old friends still play. I'll need a bit of help and time to get back into everything, so if anyone on here remembers me, I'll be back soon, and I'm looking forward to making new friends too!

I think you can reactivate old characters at any time, although I've never had to do this, because I never delete mine when I quit.

There's probably guides on POL somewhere, although knowing SE that may be a little optimistic.

Either way, whether you have to recreate or pick up your old character, welcome back. It's a totally different game to the FFXI of 2-3 years ago.

Thanks for the welcome. I was able to reinstate everything, so that was cool. I played around a little bit, now I guess I better get my butt back into partying and find a new LS, since it seems all my old friends are gone.

The LS masterlist, stickied on the forum is a good place to start.

I can highly recommend Realms. I have a pearl there and they're all really nice people, and it's a very chilled out LS.

Plus if you already know Miyo you'll fit right in. Send a tell to Perp (shellholder) or Grizzly, me, Miyozaki, Nutrino, Arachnid, Deresere or Likibiki and they'll hook you up.

Hehe... sounds scary. Might get on tonight and try to get some stuff done, macro-writing and such, I'll see who I can find online. I'll have to start off on a different job, I don't think I want to walk into a party as a 55 RDM after a two year break. Might make some good enemies that way...

Yeah I came back after like three, maybe three and half years, and I opted to just start from scratch again... Going well so far. Quite a bit changed though. If you're on later, and you're bored, feel free to drop me a /tell. I always like to talk. I'm just gunna be doing advanced job quests, but I'd be cool with PTing sometime, too. =)
