cant open the page but could just be an item coded into the game for test purposes that someone picked out of files somewhere

Yea I believe Ruby is right. That item was submitted by "Auot-Collection". A program Alla.com uses to scan game files and pull out items. Items like this are usually set at a higher level than can be played, then edited to a lower level later when they want to put it in the game.

If you actually look around the game files, there is a lot of "above the level cap" equipment in there, such as..

Ultima Weapon [Great Sword] DMG:88 Delay:480 Lv.80 PLD

It's just equipment they've created but not introduced into the game yet, so to prevent people from ever using it, they set the required level above the level cap. Once they decide to put it into the game, they lower it.

For example, here's a screenshot of Sagesundi (Lead GM) in Adaman armor before it was added to the game.

Note:

1) The armor is Level 81.
2) The armor is PLD/WAR/DRK (Adaman today cannot be worn by DRK)
3) The armor is missing most of the stats it has today (such as VIT+)



Eventually SE will add these weapons in, and they'll tweak them to have better stats before they do too.

I couldn't find the pic of Sagesundi soloing Serket, oh well.

From other threads and posts I've read, I believe the FFXI test server has a lvl cap of 99. Some of these items may see lvl reductions when added, some may come after eventual cap increases...only time can tell.

i kinda hope they dont raise anything.

lol if they raise the lvl cap that means they gonna have to put lotta new gods and such and also ima lvl blm to sub my rdm too ^_^ Blm (Convert) (do you need it?)

like what was said on the other thread arim.. even if they did that.. im sure they would make convert a RDM only kinda thing. so even if you did sub it, you couldnt have it

They'd have convert probably be like a 2hr ability and refresh a 2hr spell.

I don't know when a BLM/RDM would ever get low enough on MP that they would need to convert unless they were fighting a HQ HNM or Gods. Same with WHM. So let's encourage BD80/RDM40 so they can make more use out of their 150 MP ;p

Or they could just raise the level of convert one or two levels.
