FFXIV

Don't touch crafting til you've at least cleared the base game's content. It's a big investment, probably the biggest investment in the game before you get serious returns. You'll need to be able to either gather in every zone or have the dosh to buy your mats, neither of which will be possible to later.

They made single crafting easier by giving you some of the more important skills with every class, but you still will need to level every class to about 50 for certain crossclass skills that are all but mandatory. Also it's just useful so you can craft your own crafted materials instead of needing to buy them.

So yeah, for now focus on MSQ, then come back for crafting. You can dabble in gathering though, help you get up to speed on that faster later on. Miner and Botanist are both basically mandatory, fishing is generally optional.

probably DNC but you do no damage

just do MSQ and pretend crafting doesn’t exist

they changed it

lots of cross class skills are no longer cross class, you don’t have to onmicraft anymore

Holy shit, that Robo-Alexander fight was great
Crafting is completely optional, you don't even have to touch it after ShB if you don't want to. It's the best money maker in the game, but you'll have to invest a ton of time and money before you start seeing returns.

Guys, I just started the trial, when does the game stats being fun? I'm level 13 Lancer.

Manipulation, hasty touch, and tricks of the trade are still cross class, so you need to at least get those.

I'm surprised they didn't make TotT universal. Its so fucking good

Not for legitimately over 100 hours. Game starts to be "okay, I get it" at Level 50, then really gets going when Heavensward begins.

>when does the game stats being fun
>lancer
never

Said like a true autist.

>Reverse engineer Alexander and Omega, slapping them together in an insane plan to cross dimensions and time
Garlond Ironworks at their finest

It gets much more fun when you unlock group content at level 15.
The gameplay of most classes is really simple until around level 50, and Lancer is unfortunately one of the slowest ones to open up. It will be fantastic at level 80 though

Not until level 70 if you're a Lancer (Dragoon)
Archer (Bard), Pugilist (Monk), and Arcanist (Summoner) get better significantly faster than dragoon, feeling pretty much fine by level 30-50

Honestly, not til 50 really. The game's biggest flaw is that it takes a long time to get going, which is a big hurdle for new players.

Garlond kinoworks

this is true except for culinarian and alchemist. You can level those up on their own without needing the others

>The one recorded that message is Bigg's grandson

Does that mean that's who that roe was during the flashback of G'raha's past that we saw?

I've been putting off leveling a crafter because it looks fucking gay

what am I missing out on if I don't level a crafting job?

You cant specialize into one crafter, it's either one or all. Gatherers on the other hand you can just pick whichever one you like, I reccomend miner

gil

More money than you'll know what to do with really. It's a huge investment, but you can make tens to hundreds of millions of gil with maxed crafters.

>tfw drowning in gil during the exp launch period by crafting shit

i... dont even have a plan on how to use it. but i need to keep selling while the expansion is still new

Yes, that was the implication. They were testing the machine.

it's really lame that you need to invest a lot of time and money into the game to be able to be that successful and rich. Do they not have a wow token like thing that I can just buy to do it for me?

I hope this is bait

it's not
>youtube.com/watch?v=6N6Lu2t6hOQ

yeah you can, get a few crafters to 15, then cul and a all DoL to 80

done

I looked around for Hrothgar naming conventions online and could find none. The megathread on the forums hasn't been updated to include the new races yet either.
So for any who are curious, I used the random name generator to somewhat deduce (The Lost) Hrothgar naming conventions.
The first name will always be a fairly standard Russian/Slavic first name, Vladimir for example. The last names seem to follow a pattern of being a Serbo-Croation name ending in a vowel, always followed by "-sch", Slobasch for example.
Hope this helps anyone else with severe lore autism when naming their Lost.

If there were jump potions for crafting and gathering, the market would get destroyed.

wrong
alchemist is probably the most important, as actual good crafts always uses materials from alchemist

Is there an established best method of leveling crafters 70-80 yet?

you need to reread what he said

alc and cul are the only crafters to not be dependent on other crafters, not the other way around

Not gonna click that, it's lazypeon isn't it? He's confessed to doing paid reviews I guess we know which game isn't buying their scores lmao

I have no fucking idea, but there must be. One guy posted his crafters and gatherers last night and they were all 80 except for 1 and fisher.

>lots of cross class skills are no longer cross class, you don’t have to onmicraft anymore

That doesn't matter. What matters is when you're looking to make a CRP ring that sells for 200k gil, but you need some GSM and WVR shit, and both items cost 70K gil each. Now you've reduced your profit severely because you have to buy from other Jews.

The same as it's been since HW - leves and collectables.

It's fine, might even be more beneficial narrative wise to be able to run all the story in one go before ShB.

Just buy 390 gear with your poetics and you can zoom right through

new player here, leveling in ARR is awful and I'm assuming 2.x's 100 quests will be the same. Unless if he's talking about something I don't know.

I was fine with it back when I started fresh but if it's not your thing I'd advise just dropping the game and playing something more suited to your tastes.

I can deal with it, I've done worse.

Can someone explain to a newplayer brainlet how the class/job system works? Does it matter which class you choose in the beginning?

Summoner

When you choose your starting class you are locked into it until 30. At that point you can change your class to any of the others without restriction.

Every single class has a job which is basically just an upgrade. Lancer -> Dragoon, pugilist -> monk, etc.

The only special exception is arcanist which becomes both the summoner and the scholar which means you can technically level both at the same time. The experience you get from one applies to the other.

Also the game gives you an experience bonus for any of your classes or jobs that are less than your main to make alts better.

Yeah, all the ARR content is basically shit, but honestly it's worth it to experience Shadowbringers.

>When you choose your starting class you are locked into it until 30
You're only locked to your initial class until level 10 where doing that class quests unlocks the rest.

>but you need some GSM and WVR shit
not a problem with ALC or CUL

>rogue at 16
nigga do you even Huton?

my bad

you used to have to level multiple classes to unlock certain jobs, what remains now is just a legacy of that system

basically every class in the game gets a job stone at 30, which just unlocks the rest of your abilities, just think of the job as the upgraded version of its base class

If you wanna craft you must get Alchemist, Gold Smith and Culinarian to 15.

These 3 skills are OP as fuck, especially Hasty Touch and TotT, ridiciulous combo that makes HQ mats barely useful because you get 50 steps anyway. Personally I use both TotT and Rumination and I end up with so much CP I can't even use it all.

>Most fun I have in the game is playing Conjurer and spamming Stone

Why is Stone so satisfying bros?

FF14 is really one of those games that gets good 200 hours in, it's a shame ARR is such a slog it must put of so many people.

ARR is the best pleb filter, too bad story skips are a thing

>Everyone talking about how great the music is
>Literally just the same 4 songs remixed a few times
You people eat all this copy/paste shit up I swear.

>those wow babies that skip the story and then complain they don't understand what's happening and don't know how to play their class

I quit WoW for ff14 a couple months ago, I actually enjoyed the ARR story, I'm about done with HW at this point, the only part I don't like about it is leveling other jobs is a fucking slog

also I should add I didn't like how there's no fucking aetheryte at Vesper Bay, then there's some fucking half ass retarded story reason given why during the ARR patch stuff before HW starts, I want to torture and murder whatever gook thought that was ok

You should also stipulate that all of those skills are complete dogshit once you get past level 67 because of the unreliability of the abilities. Hell past 70 there's really only 2 crosskills you use - comfort zone and ingenuity II.

It's a motif ya dip

The game has an overarching theme it fits into

How do you get into a good farm party? Everytime I join one, it's always some fucking DPS who fucks everything up.

POST KINO MOMENT SCREENSHOTS

Why don't the Ascians just wait for the WoL to die of old age?

Not at all. They're a lot more compac with a fantastic story.

Has CUL desynth gotten anything good at all since ARR swimsuits? I have it at 330ish and hit a wall leveling, all the new fish are 390 and I'm tempted to just drop it.

Sort of, but they're a lot more enjoyable
Dont worry about "how long" just enjoy it friend

How is DRG in this expac?

My friend said I should I get to max level before Goetia or whatever but I don't to rush stuff anyway.

S tier. Stupid high DPS.

Was Emet Xande at one point?

Fun

Then he has to do Snoreblood

Same reason they don't use their Echo Invisibility that was a thing in 2.1 to kill all the scions. Doesn't make for interesting storytelling.

your friend is a tard, literally take your time the end game doesnt matter

I just met the Archbishop running through the Heavnsward quests. The story for that xpac is pretty fucking good so far.

Hows the rest of it, and Stormblood? Thinking of fully commiting and buying Shadowbringers tomorrow.

Your friend is dumb. Just take your time and you can worry about gearing and getting tomestones when you're max level.

I'm glad they didn't wait patches to bring them back

nah

Doubt it. He wasn't just cloned, but reincarnated in his clone.

Thankfully you only have to take ALC to level 15 in order to cross class it which you can do in almost literally no time

Make us cry.

I would do rdm or smn first if you're bent on a caster. BLM is very simple to play but managing it during movement intensive fights (all of them after heavensward) is p difficult and not doing it right you'll have less dps than the tank. You need to know the fights so you know when and where to place leylines and when to use triple cast

I love all the top 100 pvp armor but doing it is just not worth my time. I'll just hope ShB Wolf Mark gear is cool enough.

>offers no counterpoint
NINs have been cucked. SAM are still big dick damage but offer nothing for utility and MNK is eternally cucked.

But please, offer your own opinion at the very least.

nah

It wasn't about living or dying. It was about Thancred coming to terms with his emotions and being willing to die for Minfillia, even if she wasn't "his". They already set up the means for his rescue when Thancred asks about whether the door will close on them on not.

How long are the 100 quests, in reality? I'm hoping I can catch up to at least Stormblood with the 24 days I have left

>no krile trust
what am I going to do?

Attached: krile.jpg (2560x1440, 1.11M)

The game picks up for most jobs by level 30, which is around 8 hours in if you're really taking your time.

I'm not really sure where the 100 hours meme is coming from. You'd be into Stormblood by that point, and the game would have picked up awhile before that.

Factually wrong. ARR starts getting good the moment you meet Midgardsormer and if you don't think that is kino, you're mad. And Before the Dawn is ARR you deluded fucks. HW doesn't even get good until you reach Hraesvelgr.

really disappointed that there was not a single lalafell trust.

Eureka 2: True Eureka

Fairly long if you don't skip any scenes. I would recommend you do a patch a day. Go until you get an achievement and then stop. That will be roughly 20 quests a day and will really help with preventing burnout.

It might be better to level up BLM first anyway since SMN is pretty fast to level up with SCH

What's this all about?

Not that guy, does the chocobo just replace their cure with medica when you get it?
It's not like you have a limited amount of crafters/gatherers you can get, so it's not really a big deal.

I just looked up russian names and made up a last name that ended in isch
their naming conventions are pretty straightforward

>2.x's 100 quests
They dont exist anymore, read the patch notes you dumb niggers

See Also pretty sure they fixed the medica spam since I've never seen it doing it the few times I had it on heal stance.

Chocobo supposedly spams chocomedica if you get it.

The chocobo will start spamming medica instead of cure and it's less efficient

Tank is probably the best solo class.

Scholar is more powerful than ever in terms of healing, will easily keep a party alive through extremes/heavy dungeon pulls without ever spending mana on healing. Too bad that's it's so fucking dull to play.

One brings shadow, one brings light
Two-toned echoes tumbling through time
Threescore wasted, ten cast aside
Four-fold knowing, no end in sight
One brings shadow, one brings light
One dark future no one survives
On their shadows, away we fly

The road that we walk
Is lost in the flood
Here proud angels bathe in
Their wages of blood
At this, the world’s end, do we cast off tomorrow

One brings shadow, one brings light
To this riddle all souls are tied
Brief our moments, brazen and bright
Forged in fury, tempered in ice
Hindmost devils, early to rise
Sing come twilight, sleep when they die
Heaven’s banquet leavened with lies
Sating honor, envy, and pride
One brings shadow, one brings light
Run from the light

Authors of our fates
Orchestrate our fall from grace
Poorest players on the stage
Our defiance drives us straight to the edge
A reflection in the glass
Recollections of our past
Swift as darkness, cold as ash
Far beyond this dream of paradise lost

I'm expecting (or at least hoping) they'll get patched in later. Even if they don't get ARR weapons, I suspect they'll get HW weapons. Mainly because they still haven't released the glowing Zurvan weapon series yet, so DNC and GNB have to at least get that, and if they get that, why not the earlier weapons too?

If not, I'll be dissapointed.

I thought as much. They don't fuck around with those, goddamn. Thanks.

Ranjit was such a letdown. He doesn't even get his own trial, he just dies like a bitch to you at level 78 during a solo duty. To think the game made the WoL job to this old piece of shit.

gunbreaker is literally a bulky DPS

I wouldn't know

Guessing you don’t get the white mage barding you don’t level it to 10 tho

Ascian as the 6.0 healer, who is basically a glorified Necromancer.

1. Activate enmity stance
2. Spam AoE

Now you are perfectly prepared for 98% of dungeons.

Trying to queue as tank for alliance raid roulette still results in >more than 30m expected wait time
But otherwise yes, the GNB honeymoon phase seems to be ending and people are going back to their regular jobs.
Now if we could get people to fucking play healers again.

What’s the best way to grind levels if I’m doing another job to 80, already done one through MSQ.

The main scenario is mediocre until level 35, improves until 50, then there are 100 quests between the end of A Realm Reborn and the start of Heavensward that are short but mostly filler. It's much better starting in HW. You do start to unlock harder dungeons, trials and raids to do on the side if you find the filler section of the MSQ to be too tedious.
Lancer itself doesn't truly start to come together until 50s. It's a dull experience but you can take advantage of the MSQ exp if you really like the idea of being a Dragoon, else I'd find another class to learn the game with.

Gun breaker looks cool but I'm worried about skill overload at the start.

That scene was really fucking dark.

It's exactly what we expected nerd. Eden comes in less than two weeks, and after that we gotta wait for a few months for more MSQ and raids.

It sucks but if you've been playing this longer than just before launch, you knew it was coming.

lol desynth has been garbage since HW.

their names seemed pretty slavic to me desu

That's nothing. I ran into a level 78 BLM who used the sleep spell on mobs and was doing 1.4k DPS.

I do think Ran-Jit is the weakest part of the story, he should have been expanded on more than he was.

That said, he's been fighting Sin Eaters all his life while you've only been adventuring for a "year" or so. It makes sense that he'd be able to push you to the limit after all that. Plus his familiar presumably boosted his powers.

And ultimately you did defeat him in one on one combat, unlike Zenos who you still needed backup for.

It sounds like Emet wasn't directly responsible for Allag like he was for Garlemald, he just fucked around with it and loosely guided it to fit his goals.

Bros save me from Zenos, he has as katana

I was just dissapointed because if you read between the lines, he's clearly got a tragic history. He didn't necessarily need to be the focus of the story, but a bit more explicit development would have been nice.

Definitely something you cycle through to keep non-gcd healing to maximum

How the fuck do they fix AST with just a 0.5 patch? They could just give SCH energy drain and it'd be at least ok, but AST seems like it has tons more problems.

Spam that shit with Waste Not.

GNB is deceptively simple, quite close to DRK's simplicity in actual practice. Three-hit melee combo, a cartridge spender, a second combo started by cartridges, an oGCD attack, a DoT and a handful of tanking abilities (including AoE puller and ranged puller). That upgrades later to another DoT that's AoE, an AoE cartridge attack, an oGCD to push in between the hits of your cartridge combo, a couple more tanking cooldowns, and an upgrade to your oGCD attack.

It's about Ninja or Dragoon-tier in terms of actual rotation complexity but it's the most compelling of the tank rotations as a result, alongside Paladin.

So how did stopping the destruction of the First directly change things in the Source?

It seemed that the main issue was that all the Light flooding to the source would supercharge the Black Rose, making it much more deadly.
But it looks now as though the Black Rose won't even be deployed. So was going to the First actually necessary with Zenos's interference?

Works perfectly fine, though there's content you'll want to make friends for

At higher levels GNB is full-on GUNSWORDCAMOFLAUGERIPTEARGAUGEBLAST tiers of fun
Plus it has the best battle stance in the game for all tanks
Just don’t be like every other gun breaker and wear casual clothes or god forbid a red jacket with white hair, have some fucking creativity with all the tank armor available

The Black rose would just be a catalyst/help the light flood into The Source by destabilizing it.

GNB is seemingly more fragile than other tanks but has good numbers, and its survivability is good enough to still function. Rotating your tank cooldowns is mandatory with GNB instead of a heavyhanded suggestion.

It comes together at lv. 70 and everything after that is pretty much gravy.

>I was just dissapointed because if you read between the lines, he's clearly got a tragic history
I think that's what I like about him.

You can do it. The only content you need friends for is treasure hunt dungeons

post all the pics of emet insulting the scions and wol, i need them for memes

I liked Zenos. He's not nearly as complex a villain as Emet-Selch, but he has a pretty winning personality.

But the black rose never even got deployed. Was having the Scions removed from play for a period of time somehow enough to change events in the Source?

My Viera's hair is red/black Also as far as gear goes I just really like the look of their AF armor.

If he manages to conquer Zodiark's power and take it for his own, it's his in his mind I imagine. He probably expects the Warrior of Light to go to similar extremes to fight back.
Dunno, but he's definitely shown that he's extremely petty. And his whole "my first friend' is going pretty quickly into creepy levels.

He's going to kill a major character but people will be unable to hate him due to his impressive autism

GNB is like PLD where it requires aggressive use of its invuln to really handle large pulls in dungeons and save CDs, but unlike PLD the healer has to actively mitigate the effect of Superbolide instead of just focusing on damage. Good GNBs can time Superbolide to go off just before dying so the healer can focus on DPSing for that period of time to make up for having to heal it later.

Defintely edgy bastard since the AF armor is Seifers armor.

I'm pretty sure it'll depend on who it is. If it's Lyse, then yeah nobody will care out of universe. But if it's like Edmont or something, you can bet everyone will turn on him.

He trained every other minfilia, maybe he just wanted to shove this one on prison so he didn't have to watch another minfilia die.

He did say he was on vaulthry side which made us our enemy but he wasn't 100% a bad guy. After all when we were next to the pit he didn't bother to attack us at all and he was against the cheap tactics the captain was using.
I'd say he's comparative to gaius, our enemy due to their objective being against ours but not a bad guy.

Black Rose was going to cause the Calamity, but the future changed. So now Zenos will use Tartarus

Amaurot should have been the place where you find endgame vendor location and allow you to change glamours. Change my mind. The music there is great.

MSQ at level 70 feels fucked, I think praetorium give a sliver of XP compared to the big chunk it goes before and after level 70.

I'm a derplander RMT bot.
I don't use the macro I just like to post the picture.

What the fuck is with the new SMN rotation and pressing all these skills.

I like her in that I think she's enjoyable to watch with how bitchy she is.

Also that scene she had with Runar after being rescued from the lifestream was adorable. I hope they get more interaction in the patches.

I don't honestly think anyone other than waifufags likes Y'shtola. Her personality is objectively insufferable. She's just a stuck up cunt.

Technically Amaurot shouldn't exist anymore after you finish the story. The glamour over the whole city is gone after you killed Emet. They just let you go back for gameplay reasons, but it would make no sense for endgame vendors to be there.

I don't even know why she got so popular. She barely had a presence on ARR, her presence on HW was minimal, she was dead most of SB and her presence on ShB is meh at best.
She doesn't have anything special about her other than being a catgirl scion.

Nah, just furry in my FC was bragging about this exact same macro
I guess it's a common joke? Not the same exact name but same concept to make the healers react.

useful.

in HW BLM was literally a turret.

She's a catgirl in the MSQ spotlight who has an expensive anime voice actor and she also happens to be YoshiP's waifu. That's what it is, I think.
Boy do I hate how she got into Dissidia over literally anyone else, as if she's the face of the game. She's always been barely relevant. ShB gave her a bigger role than she's ever had and she's still just a backup dancer for the WoL that only pops up every now and again.

>The glamour over the whole city is gone after you killed Emet.
Don't think so, the destroyed city we see after we defeat emet is the space we see that he created beyond the door he opened.
The space before that is still intact because amaurotines argue the whole time about creating living beings, doesn't mean those living beings are directly connected to their creator.

After all there's this guy whos most likely the entry point for nier crossover.

I like how Eulmore is essentially like someone took a look at Balmung’s Limsa, and decided they could do better, with blackjack and hookers.

I mean you literally go there for one of the EX Dungeons though.
And since the scions are such bad friends you don't even invite any of the fucking nerds to go to Lahabrea's nerd hall.

There’s 2 bots right now, rebornbuddy and MMOminion, but rebornbuddy is a risky pick because bossland might shut it down in a few months like they did with honorbuddy so the only one I personally recommend is MMOminion unless you want to spend 60$ on reborn and risk losing all that money.

Didn't Yoshi P say that Shadowbringers would have 9 dungeons at launch? I've only found 8. Is the last one hidden behind the role story lines or something?

Anyone else out of content? At least the game was fun enough to nolife for 16 hours a day for a week. About to hit 80 on my 2nd job, and after I do a couple EX on the 2nd job I'm basically done until Savage comes out, and that's only going to be entertaining for a couple of days.

I'd give the expansion an 8.5/10.
I thought they'd do something interesting with fates, and they didn't do anything.
Storyline was generally good, thankfully it had basically zero to do with anything with Eorzea or Garlean trash.
EX Fights were cool. Innocent was a much better fight than Titania, but they were definitely way better than Susano and Lakshmi.
The forest zone was a pretty bad slog in the middle. The beginning of the faerie zone was pretty bad too.
Job changes don't seem all that interesting for any class besides MCH, and I've seen a lot of MCH bitching about their class.

Hopefully the raid is entertaining, but it's going to be pretty easy to be better than boring Omega that relied on fanservice the entire time, and only had two or three fun fights the entire expansion (O3S, O4S, 08S)
