I'm a real youtuber now raid sponsored me this is my peak :'^)
It’s been amazing having watched each of your videos as they came out, thank you so much for sharing this adventure with us
Always glad to see more content from the king!
Well glad to see you're not restarting the whole challenge because of one thing you didn't think of. I always forget that there's nothing actually stopping new players in Ul'dah and Gridania from traveling between regions before the airship unlock. Just…strong enemies.
It’s bag chasing hours baby! Get that sponsor money!
Man, all those job unlocks you're getting from the kind NPCs granting them to you… idk man, looks like you'll have to start over and figure out how to unlock progress without NPCs at all! 😛 /s
I love that these always have DQ music
Dude I thought the raid sponsorship was a joke
Raid sponsor WOOOOOOO! You officially made it.
Now do it ironman, and no teleports.
You can get a full set of lv 5 gear doing yellow quests and not have to buy from npc.
I genuinely don't think that buying from an NPC should ruin your run in any way, its still playing Solo, Its not like single player games which you play solo don't have NPCs that you can get stuff from. But either way was fun video none the less! Can't wait for the next Solo episode! I am SUPER looking forward to Post ARR!
can't imagine the anxiety attacks having being trailed by masses everywhere u go. ^^;
Okay, before even watching the video – you realised you can avoid enemies and reach other city-states on foot, right?
time to restart everything on Perfect Solo
Final you got the RAID SHADOW LEGENDS ad. Congratulations! 😉
WOW CONGRATS ON THE RAID SPONSOR DUDE YOU'RE MAKING IT SO FAR <33
:O a bonus Solo video? as a treat?!
I dont understand the no quest reward restriction, what does that have to do with being solo only?
well technically you did stick to the rules as at the time you couldn't do it any other way as you couldn't travel
Congrats on your first Sponsor of the series !
Ayy he got the raid bag! Excited to see you crunch on gamer cereal
Glad to see you getting sponsors dude! In comparison to me, I swear you do 10 years worth of thinking on every possible avenue of solutions. It's pretty damn entertaining! Kudos for always thinking outside the box and having the gall to go back and work through your mistakes!
Raid is still sponsoring videos?
I wanna start watching the stream but I get the feeling that it’s quite far ahead of the vid uploads and I’d miss loads
The alternate timeline has been created.
The Crow Fly made by GSM (16-20) can also be used to catch goby, meaning you didn't need to buy goby balls either. The more you know!
Sponsored? Congrats! 🙂
Playing like a true old-school MMO, good vibes!
People really spent their day following you around. I'd ask if they've got nothing better to do but clearly their presence indicates as much x'D
That said, I love this solo content, if it weren't for the huge time sink, i'd have tried it myself.
Glad youre not restarting. You did say use npcs as little as possible and this still counts as little as possible to me.
Congrats on the sponsorship!
I have a somewhat odd question – Are you the Rath who came up with Rath's Rotation back in Heavensward?
Calling Raid's combat 'deep' is the overstatement of the millenium.
Um… if I’m not wrong, I’m like 100% certain you can get a helmet from a quest before that MSQ. I have been recording a similar challenge and I had completed all quests and thought I needed to make the same exception but I had already received one. I can look through my footage to see if I can locate when the helmet is given
you are aware that every town has some starting non blue quest in and outside the city? yea one of those gives you a Helm
Honestly I thought the "no buying from NPCs" wasn't really essential in a solo playthrough, I mean you're still the one getting the gil, I buy my food from stores IRL and yet still live on my OWN lol, and when I play a solo game, when I pay for something at an npc, it's still a solo game, as long as you got the gil through your own efforts I don't think it's a problem anyways =)
But your commitment to your rules is very impressive and commendable to be honest.
I couldn't find a single subscribe button across the entire video! How am I going to subscribe now?
Fitting that you have to bonk Marauders in your effort to fix the issue that was CAUSED by picking Marauder.
Also I've always thought it was pretty dumb that not even the Vesper Bay ferry was accessible until pretty much the Envoy quest, meaning that players are STUCK in La Noscea until then, whereas people who start in the other two cities can access the "Greater Eorzean Continent" as I lke to put it. Really confused me as a new player when I started because I was wanted to see all the places from the get go but couldn't as I started as Marauder.
took 20 trys to watch this video becuase of Raid lol
Which job are you choosing, I'm new to the game so maybe it's obvious but not for me =3
I get its your own self made challenge, but whats with half the rules you give yourself. As long as you stay solo, who cares if you use dungeon gear, use npc vendors ect. If you earn the gil, earn the loot use it.
I just happened upon this series and can 100% say that it has been a delight to watch and listen while reading. It takes me back to the days of just starting out as an archer in Gridania and working my way through a story that I hold so near and dear to my heart. Thank you Rath for the wonderful piece of content. Much love~
There's a lvl8 DoW hat from a side quest in each region, with which you'd be able to complete the quest without crafting or purchasing from an NPC, for Limsa starters its in Lower La Noscea, its an easy thing to miss and nobody is gonna hold it against ya
Ah yes the downside of things getting popular, the annoying people who follow you everywhere
