Really wanted to get to at least HW before shadowbringers dropped. Was on funds when I got to praetorium and was so lost/bored throughout the whole thing. Then I learned I have MORE shit to do at 50 before I can move on, I couldn't do it anymore. Ninja is fun but I can only do the same shit for so long before I want to kill myself.

Stop shittalking us. Without Claire around, she began to realize just how much that everyone depended on her. Just her presence alone helped to raise everyone’s spirits… But still, she had to agree with Tataru in that their friend’s health and well-being was just as important as helping the others. So she fully supported the idea of letting Claire leave the Scions and her responsibilities for a time.
It wasn’t easy, their friend was as stubborn as she was strong, but eventually, the two of them managed to convince their friend to take it easy for at least the last week. Under the condition that they call her should they find anything new or if any changes have come to the others.
While it felt like there was a dark cloud hanging over their heads, Krile could not deny that there was still an air of hope about the other Scions. Once word had spread that Claire had woken up from her ‘slumber’ it was all the proof that the others needed to know that this can be beat; that the others can and will wake up one day.
This she also believed. The Scions were strong, all of them, and they couldn’t stop here. She would just have to keep going and do her part to make sure that they all found their way back home. She only wished she knew where to look now because these tomes weren’t going to cut it.
“You know, if you keep throwing those books, Urianger will give you such a telling off when he wakes up.”
Krile jumped, looking down, having not even realized that she wasn’t alone anymore. Tataru was there, with a plate full of brightly colored pastries and a rather forced smile on her face.
“Hello,” she said as she set the plate down and said, “You need to remember to eat too. We all have to keep up our strength after everything that’s happened.”
No sooner were those words out of her mouth did Krile feel a rumble in her stomach and she felt her face blushing.

One would think that she would be able to rest after all that had happened to her lately. One would think that she could use this time to rest and recover from the last battle with the Ultima Weapon. Truthfully, she wanted to take a few days to herself and be able to enjoy herself. However, if there was one thing that she learned was that if she was left on her own with nothing to do, she would grow both bored and irritable. Besides, she rarely got the chance to take the time to explore more of Mor Dhona, why not use this opportunity while she had the free time?
So, slipping away from the Waking, glad that everyone else seemed to be taking it easy for the time being, she ventured out her steps taking her north until she reached the small but thriving town. As she wandered through the streets, she could see every race already out and about in the streets, dressed in all manner of clothes from heavy metal armor, leather bindings, and the flowing robes that swept across the cobblestone streets. She could not hear her own thoughts thanks to the noise that sprang up around her as a near overwhelming song almost knocked her over.
She spent a great deal of time wandering the market stalls that were covered with brightly colored tarps, where she looked over everything the vendors had to sell. She glanced over them with curiosity as she looked over the interesting bits and bobs—some of whom she didn't even know what to call—before she returned to the town square, wondering where she should go next this day.
As she was contemplating her next move, she heard someone speak out.

"Do I know you?" Too lazy to copy and paste and post pics at the same time sorry
>thinking MMOs are generally joined for their story People generally want the social experience along with making friends to do dungeons, raids and crafting with. FFXIV is nothing more than a WoW clone with a solid story in post 2.3 - HW and ShB. Thinking a story alone is enough to save a game from failing in its genre is baffling though I guess I have to hand it to XIV for managing to stay up there off story alone. Just like WoW many see FFXIV as the very thing wrong with Modern MMOs. >inb4 called WoWfag Let me save you the trouble and admit im a current XIV player, a pre-1.23a/b player and a XI-fag.
I honestly don't blame you OP, this game is fucking impenetrable for someone who is just now starting.
Seriously the worst fucking quest design ever in ARR and the 2.1 to 2.9 patch quests make me want to rip my eyes out. Anyone who downplays just how terrible this part of the game either has done it so long ago when it was current content and forgot or legitimately has some kind of autism.
Heavensward is great but its not like "amazing" great, as in, not worth the 250+ quest insanity of the vanilla MSQ. The worst part is nothing is skippable even if you get to level cap, you still have to do all of it.
Talk all the shit about Classic WoW you want, at least that game lets you go to endgame however you want and doesn't make you do all of the quests in Durotar, Barrens, Thousand Needles, Shimmering Flats, Tanaris, Un'Goro, Silithus, etc, before you can join your friends in doing level 60 5-mans or raiding.
I got to post-HW content and heard the Stormblood expansion was only average at best (and bad coming from HW) and just got burnt out. There's a great game there but it cant get out of its own way.
>Yoshi already pushing for cross-DC matchmaking >ignoring all the technical debt he's accrued on top of ignoring the ShB stuff that has been pushed to "Patch it Later" I swear I love the ShB story and I love the music but this shit is putting up so many red flags for me that I can't help but be more wary of even keeping my sub up. The increase of bots across servers doesn't help either.
William Turner
Why don't you spam up xivg instead? Those degenerate erpers need to be taught a lesson.
Not him but I would hardly call story-gating hating content. The fact that games like modern WoW and XIV have to time-gate as hard as they can is indicative of the lack of longevity most modern content design has. Sure the "Single Player" story is fun and can be enjoyed I am one of many who enjoys Emet as a character it isn't worth losing soo much of what made past MMOs good. Most of the streamlining both WoW and XIV have done to their games has done nothing but sanitize interaction between their players leading to no real growth of cooperation. You can just hit the DF and done you're connected to the content. It also doesn't help that both games have essentially gone to completely hand-holding players to the extent that they either keep casualizing their jobs or design content so lackluster it does nothing to teach you the basics. >inb4 tooltips FFXIV is already suffering what WoW suffers and failing to teach its players.
I feel sorry for Classic-fags as they're essentially doing what Emet tries to do in hopes of their past being brought back, it's a fate I would not wish upon XI as its way past it's prime. >wanting Yoshida to address all the technical debt and lack of "new" features is hating "new features" Bait harder my child. I know you can do it. I mean if I was able to shit up Classic threads with pic-related surely you must be able. Go out there and earn your future (You)s.
>trying to destroy XIV threads by posting XIV porn
I don't think you thought this through
Chase Gray
Just imagine. Some fat neckbeard sitting all alone in some cafe in the middle of the night shitting up xiv threads on Yea Forums with spamposts and porn. And all while he does it he believes himself some kind of hero or righteous aggressor. Jesus can you be even more pathetic then this? Why even bother honestly? When you leave the cafe and or get kicked out and stop posting you'll fade right back into obscurity and, like your sad and miserable life, everyone will forget you even exist and move on. You won't leave a "legacy" shitposting on Yea Forums and all you"ll amount to is a minor inconvenience at best. A pebble on the roadside no one gives a shit about. I'd tell you to kill yourself but you have to have a life in the first place in order to end said life.
Porn poster, bless your soul, and keep posting porn. Maybe then these fucking worthless mods will delete these fucking ffxiv threads and force all you niggers onto /vg/ where you belong. It’s been over a month for fuck’s sake. Stop posting about this horrible fucking SHIT game on a daily basis.

My flame of hope in regards to XIV is still not done so I will stick to this game for a tad bit longer but don't mistake not leaving as being completely fine with its current state. It's saddening to see the team failing to even meet the very expectations Yoshida set in his 2015 GDC but the expansion hasn't had its first major patch yet so I will slowly watch with an on/off subscription. If I had completely given up on XIV I wouldn't be browsing these threads.
Is it really that bad? I know that how it was before, with WAR being the only tank worth a damn, but I feel like every job has been way more homogenized. I can't imagine Savage content being that much more difficult with non-optimal jobs. I'd figure that players knowing the fight mechanics and making sure to do their shit properly was far more important.

As I said you retard. I'm banned from vg. Like all Starbucks is idk how it's possible.
I agree with you entirely, but what's the alternative? To have a direct sequel of sorts to FF11? They tried that with the original version FF14. It was a disaster for a lot of reasons, although I've always wondered if there was even a market for that style of MMO anymore anyway. I think FF14 is great for the style it is but I get ya, gating content as hard as it does is fucking bogus.
I just want to craft, and instead I have to go through 100 5-part quests with dungeons and hardmodes and subdungeons and all this other horseshit just to be allowed to craft again at level 50 (or about 64, by the time you're done with all the bullshit).
I spent 5 months getting every craft and gather to 50, plus 4 different combat classes, and now I don't even want to fucking log in anymore. This wall is killing me.
The bigger issue with 1.0 wasn't that it was trying to emulate a more up to date XI but rather that that the team was so far up its own ass that they never bothered to properly communicate leading to a miss matched set of systems that didn't work together. Subsections of the team kept adding more resources to their systems cause they perceived it as more important and the aftermath of it all led to a mad rush to fix everything which ate up resources that were meant for making more content. >is there a market for it? I would say to an extent you can somewhat modernize the old MMO feel without streamlining it entirely with things like Duty Finder as survival games out there have shown that if you give players a good chunk of freedom they will gather and create their own communities. Obviously you'd need to adjust it for MMOs and not a Survival game but I think the want for a social game enviroment where making guilds that can help others,fuck with others or even do content in-game without instances is still there, they'd just have to put time and resources into making sure they don't bring another 1.0 into their hands.
Yoshida was smart and played it safe with the WoW-clone remake as it's taking a well known IP and mixing it with the standard of MMOs. If they failed well SE was doomed anyways, if it succeeded then the company had a temporary cash cow to make other cash cows out of.

Hard time gating is just a way to accomplish what an MMO that doesn't uses brutal grind for without making it take literal years for casual players. You can still see the old approach with a lot of FFXIV's "bonus" content like cheevo awards where like 5 people will ever get the fucking item because the content died before anyone but poopsockers could finish the grind.

BLACK ROCK SHOOTER Where did you go? Can you hear me?
How much longer must I keep shouting? How much longer must I keep crying? No more, I can’t run anymore… The dream world I once saw is shutting down, it’s so dark with no light to be seen. Along this crumbled beaten path I felt I saw something that shouldn’t be here, a ray of hope.
Why?
BLACK ROCK SHOOTER These beloved memories from that time were so fun… BLACK ROCK SHOOTER But I can’t move anymore, I wish upon the star flying through the darkness to be able to run one last time!
I whisper with my shaking and scared voice and I call out my own name. The sky embraces the dawn, all the way till the border… one more step…and I still won’t reach…
The tears I’ve endured start to flow, but I mustn’t be depressed, or everything will end, I want to continue living! I get it, I remember, and believe with everything I got.
That’s right!
BLOCK ROCK SHOOTER That tender fragrance is painful and unbearable, but I take it all in. BLACK ROCK SHOOTER I move my feet and transcend this world!
I knew it from the very beginning, I knew the reason I’m here. All of the courage within me burn like a flame! I won’t run away anymore!
BLACK ROCK SHOOTER I’m not alone! I raise my voice, it doesn’t matter if I cry! BLACK ROCK SHOOTER Please take a look at me, from now on I begin my own story!
If it looks like I’ll for get it, I’ll sing this song again!

so i finally got a house and i wanted to garden to make money but i dont fucking get crossbreeding for expensive seeds and fruits.
do i have to spend the money on an expensive seed like glazenut to cross breed more or can I crossbreed cheaper seeds and have a chance for a expensive seed.
if you want to actually make a profit off of glazenuts you need to cross breed them up from cheap garbage plants
just follow a guide on what seeds and soil you need, then water and fertilze them every 24 hours
Adam Harris
forgot to mention, the order in which you plant them and pick them also matters, just make sure to follow the charts
Dominic Foster
what a shitty thread, bring me back to heavensward years, it wasn’t this bad back then

So weird stuff like thavnairian onions are a pain. The easiest cash crop is broombush since it's self-sustaining.
First thing is you'll want Grade 3 Thanalan Soil. It can be mined from an unspoiled node at 5-8am in Western Thanalan. Or you can buy Unidentifiable Ore with Tomestones of Poetics and trade that for the soil (look it up).
Anyways you want Almonds in any of the blue spots with any kind of soil. Plant them first.
Then you want Broombush with Grade 3 Thanalan Soil in the red spots. Grade 3 gives a 99% chance of seed crossbreeding and Almonds x Broombush = Broombush (that's why I said self-sustaining). So when you harvest the broombush, you should get 4 seeds to keep re-planting. Don't harvest the almonds unless....
Loads of Dirt Method:
Plant an almond with any kind of soil first.
Then plant the Broombush next to it with Grade 3 Thanalan
Then plant almonds with Grade 3 Thanalan next to the broombush, keep alternating.
This will make 3 of the 4 Almonds also give Broombush seeds to sell.
Then when you harvest, replant each square immediately before harvesting the next square with Grade 3 Thanalan. Then your next batch will have all 8 spots give seeds.

Because it has the nicest flowing rotation in the game, which also translates to it being the most simple rotation in the game.

From 70 to 80 on SAM the only changes to what buttons you press are flat out replacing your level 70 ability with a single target version against bosses at level 72, doing a second Midare consecutively once a minute, and an oGCD you use roughly once a phase transition. So functionally in most trash content you just see one animation get swapped to do the same thing and another one get repeated.

Your threads are shit i don't want to discuss FFXIV on any board.
100+ quests between level 50 and Heavensward that are infamously boring and loaded with filler. Once you get past that you're in the clear, but that series of quests takes the wind out of many newbies' sails.

XIV is trash and it needing 4 fucking expansions of backstory, lore, development etc just to lead to ShB just makes it worse. Not a single person who jumped straight to ShB has said its good, the only people shilling it pretending ShB is good are XIV fags who've been subbed to it for 6+ years and have stockholm syndrome for pouring 6 years of their life and money investment of hundreds of dollars into into it. Yoshida said you could jump right into ShB but NOPE, please pour 300 hours of your life into shit just to get to more shit.
>>Literally every dungeon is a hallway with ironclad linearity I'll have you know the ones ported from original FFXIV have multiple pathways and optional rooms that nobody has seen since 2014.

Ethan Morgan
the dancer partner buff doesn't benefit with another dancer right?
Dominic Phillips
Can anyone give a single valid reason for a dungeon where the goal is to beat the last boss to have multiple pathways? In the end autists will find the shortest, most convenient method of doing it and everything else will be ignored anyway so what is the fucking point?
Camden Allen
There needs to be a frightful amount more sadu porn
Nathan Kelly
Some were removed, and then people learned the rewards were useless so they skip them in favor of a faster run. If they made chests grant scaled XP or some shit people would do it.
Loot, mostly, but unfortunately the average person now just does level 40 content in broken level 15 rags instead of spending 5 seconds getting decent leveling gear and level cap dungeon gear is required to be shit. You pretty much have to use unsynced to even get dungeon gear for vanity purposes these days.
>If they made chests grant scaled XP or some shit people would do it. Considering people still don't do the fucking Morbols properly in AV I doubt it.
Gavin Myers
Nigga I don't even go on Reddit. Nice projection faggot.
Camden Martin
>loot gear is purchaseable at fucking vendors dungeon loot is dogshit unless its current content.
Jacob Walker
>Considering people still don't do the fucking Morbols properly in AV I doubt it. People don't bother with morbols 'properly' anymore since the XP scaling from it is laughable. It was only good XP if you were

Adam Lewis
Do modern high schools in the US not teach zoomies how to be concise in their English class?
Luke Gray
LQ vendor leveling gear is hilariously shit compared to dungeon drops. Plus people don't even do that, you see shit like full i250 in a level 59 dungeon.
>It was only good XP if you were
Chase Stewart
Can anyone psychologically profile Lalafell players for me?
I was told it doesn't but when one stacked with me and I stacked with someone else both mine and the other dancer's were on me when we both used standard step. So I changed partners with them and we both had two damage buffs.

Voice chat ruined MMOs, never understood why people would split guild chat and whatever voice software they use, just left mine because I felt pissed out that I was "missing out" on the voice chat banter going on in Discord.
You either had a good childhood or you wish you had a good childhood. You don't want to grow up and embrace being an adult. You like cute things. You are a degenerate. You likely have autism. If you had any friends growing up, you were likely found to be obnoxious and merely tolerated by those around you.
I'd like to clarify, meaning I login and not a single word or greeting in FC chat, those guys are like in Discord and saying "hello!" among themselves but none are playing the game, just a circlejerk of people playing Discord lmao, good riddance.
Rent free what? "Reddit is living in my head" or something? I don't have an account and just lurk /r/ffxiv and a couple of other subreddits from time to time for the handful of useful information and whatnot they have sometimes. Not that it matters hiromoot welcomed reddit with open arms a long time ago newfag. Just admit it you made an account expecting to be affirmed and welcomed but got shit on instead for being the toxic shit you are. And then you come to Yea Forums in the vain hope that some user would make an elaborate "enlightened" post about it so you wouldn't feel like the garbage you are but instead you got shit on here as well.
You're forgetting "Is a manlet irl and relates to it more"

I feel you. In my former FC the inner clique just hung out on Discord making all plans there or in their private linkshells.
Chase Carter
You say good ridance but every FC is like this, every FC. Everyone of them. I personally can't fault them since Discord, i suppose, is a better chat program but when you're like this you don't make an FC. You don't recruit people, that's vicious. You don't pretend you're an FFXIV group like that because you're a Discord group not a FFXIV group. Assholes.
It's 3AM EDT, I don't feel like talking to anyone right now or else I'd have friends over just saying. Back in the days VoIP used to be an option, not obligatory, fuck that noise.
His points are fucking lame though >Lol is apparently passive aggressive >Being told to move less is passive aggressive.
However he isn't wrong, this community does attract so many passive aggressive shitters it's not even funny. You don't pay my sub is used unironically. Asking for help just gets to >Lmao you play X and can't even do X damage. >Lmao greylet >Yikes he can't even do simple mechanics
It's shit like that makes me run up the fucking wall.
Ian Torres
>tfw you get to 60 before you even unlock heavensward i wish i was joking
Bentley Price
I got plenty of non anime ones too faggot. All it appeared to me was just a reaction image to illustrate me laughing and shitting on you. Jesus and to think you were complaining about passive aggressiveness when you're such a piece of shit.
>ran by some boomer that literally talks about working on his car and mowing the lawn all the time >everyone in the group is super chilled and experienced >everyone is helpful and knowledgeable >have two-three nights a week where we all just get hammered and run maps/diadem/whatever >FC chat is always active
Well guess I should make a FC which isn't? It used to be simple to play a game and chat in game? Fuck Discord desu. (Again I'm talking about a social FC, not hardcore raid/pvp/rp or anything.), hell one of the FC I've tried to join basically asked me to JOIN DISCORD BEFORE JOINING THE FC, what a fucking joke MMOs have became "join muh special circle before joining in-game" wtf.
If the result is you samefagging already then yeah I kinda did.

Nobody else in the world plays it so they don't care but god damn it. Bard is great, but it's not the same.Now I'm sad. God damn it.

You really did that's a diamond, never let it go. The rest of us are struggling. I'm lucky too because i'm not completly alone but i imagine if you didn't manage to find a couple of non-fag buddies the nightmare must be real. How dare they recruit new FC members through the game? If their circle is located in discord then it must be findable and joinable through the discord landscape because that's where they are, they musn't recruit in-game and trick people like this. That's how it feels you join an FC and bam it was a trap, you got tricked there's nobody here. They're not going to fucking respond to you.
Get FUCKED, buddy. I fucking love MCH. I fucking love that it's /m/ AS FUCK. I fucking love Drill. I get ROCK HARD calling down my motherfucking ROBOT and watching that asshole doing a charging fucking punch into the boss' balls. I love that Big-O motherfucker pilebunk the hell out of shit. I FUCKING LOVE FLAMETHROWER. I love those retarded airflips you do in your braindead 1-2-3 combo. I don't understand what Air Anchor fucking is and it's cool. I fucking love gasing shit with Bioblaster And I don't even care if it's shit damage, I play the damn game for fun, and I think MCH is FUCKING FUN. FUCK YOU.

Everyone stacks north to get knocked to mid, then split for group stacks + hitting tank with cleaves. EVERYONE moves north again to get knocked to mid, then tank knocks everyone back north.
Rather than just doing north once, knock to mid, do aoes, hang out for a bit, knock tank back, then tank knocks rest forward.
David Martinez
that literally does not happen, a monitor is a fucking flat surface and all ingame "depth" is already optical illusion
In fps? it absolutely does. >an optical illusion no fucking shit retard. Most optical illusions dont actually work for me the same way 3d movies dont work for me and are mostly a blurry mess. My vision is 20/400 in my eye on a good day and the neural pathways from my optic nerve are underdeveloped to the point they dont transmit to my brain correctly.You don't know what youre talking about.
Robert Rodriguez
Damn yeah. When i join a group to play a game i'm interested in playing that game with that group and i'm not interested in a group that doesn't play that game it's simple as that so i get mad when i'm given the you just don't like discord you dumbass just join their discord.
Ethan Carter
Top kek. I remember this dude from my F-List days.
>I activate my trap card. Witness my Stand: PLD with no shield!!!! The only way you wouldn't cringe from this is if you were underage. Or severely retarded/autistic. Possibly both. But then again considering you've been playing mmos for 12 years and still can't tank for shit even in fucking SASTASHA, I'm not really surprised
I never said I RP'd with him. I just remember the name and his perpetually cringey adverts.

Forget it, posters don't really grasp the concept judgeing by the words i see posted. On every board, mind you. Many, many posters don't seem to really handle anonymous discussion or don't understand how to have a dialogue without personalities. People's posts reek of themselves.
Jonathan Martin
WoW-esque "savage" raiding ruined this game. Change my mind.
Luis Miller
The poster was obviously joking when he asked why they would post that. Your sperg out is concerning.
Nathan Collins
DPS has a lot of buttons but it's just memorizing the rotation and trying not to drop stuff. Healers actually have to react to things, manage the team, prepare for big attacks, it's a lot more engaging than DPS at higher levels of play.
Cooper Jones
In what way
Jaxon Howard
WoW never felt like it had much of a story going, so it was better suited for just letting you take it your way, which I also liked to an extent. Most of the story telling was just in zone lore via the zone quests, which ShB is lacking a fuckload of (lore, not side-quest count) for some reason this time around.
Andrew Howard
i think the content itself is fine, i just hate the fact that the only thing savage about it is finding people who have at least learned that you need to press a button once every 2.5 seconds
James Ortiz
I wonder if they can type as fast as we can. I can type half a sentence between my GCDs and constently i see the argument that nobody has time to use text because they're pressing buttons too fast. Get good nooblets.
Covering it does not do anything user. It innately messes up how I perceive things. Unless I had it removed it would not actually fix anything, and even then, im not going to do that. The neural pathways are weak along my optic nerve, so when my pupils focus, its like my primary vision drifts back and forth between the eyes. its very hard to explain but imagine closing one eye, and seeing out of only one, and then suddenly swapping instantly, but its fucking impossible to see, and then blend that together to where it sways between the two randomly like a rocking boat and you have to try your best to still see through it. It's why I cant legally operate a vehicle.
Aiden Bennett
How do you survive guild drama
Zachary Morales
More like even the mods think you're garbage. And to think you even keep posting more inane garbage instead of learning your lesson. I don't think I've seen someone break down this much after getting shitted on in a long time.

Hey mr internet tough guy. I'm in Chicago right now. Tell me where you live and I'll cook you some nice fried rice. You won't do it because you're a pussy.

Not that guy, but will you come to Kansas City and make me some fried rice?
Jackson Thomas

David Campbell
Yeah sure. Is crab fried rice cool with you mate?
Anthony Peterson
What's the point in telling you as you won't be able to do shit since I'm a eurofag anyway. And even if I wasn't I wouldn't tell you either way since I feel no reason to beat up some random kid anyway. Just telling you you're a piece of shit and that you should go kill yourself for getting buthurt about being a sprout is enough for me anyway. Just stop posting here and maybe you'll be able to laugh it off without cringing at yourself when you remember this in a couple of years.
I'm chatting with my good friends and keeping up my rotation at the same time. I can also grind in Eureka for 3 hours and my hands don't even hurt. I put my dick in your sister's carpal tunnel if you gnome saying and you'll be Uncle Ben before you can clear Cape Westwind.
I bought the game long time ago, cant even remember why I dropped it. What are the best things this game has to offer?

No 1 design flaw in a certain game doesn't ruin an entire genre of games. They said they'll address the item level problem so be patient and just wait for it.
Hudson Williams
Not him but 60th and Indiana. That tall ass white complex. Meet me in the front in an hour if you've got the balls.
So the solution to people not knowing how to play the game is to have gear carry them? Fuck, I know my job well enough to stay alive and don't want to get locked out of content for an arbitrary number
>So the solution to people not knowing how to play the game is to have gear carry them? That's always been the solution. That's always been how it works. Just toss more freebe tomestone gear up for the casuals to use and carry them towards the next stage of the game.
Xavier Evans
It's full of WoW people. When you play a game like an MMO for 10 years it affects your brain and molds your psyche to behave in accordance with the present community, it's how cultures form so of course when a community enters a different community en masse there is a clash. We're full of WoW players with their shitty attitude forged in Blizzard's cauldron of disdain.
Xavier Morgan
No but if your healer wasn't wearing pre-50 gear as you said in a sb dungeon there would have been no wipe. They don't have be really precise with item level lock outs. If all they do is force people to wear at least gear that anyone can buy from a vendor from the start of the expansion it would be a world of difference..
Nathaniel Hill

Kayden Campbell
I ended up liking dark knight a lot more than I expected after all but dropping it in ShB. What are the odds they're going to completely rework it instead of just things like giving scourge back? I heard there was a lot of bitching about it.
Logan Watson
The people who like Classic aren't playing FFXIV mate.

I hope it's really good, seriously i hope Classic turns out the best game of the decade. Go play WoW guys, have fun forever with hopefully a great game.

This. Can't find a party who can can beat rotating orbs, let alone the fucking adds
Cooper Rodriguez
Disappointed about the expansion spot things but I think I'll still give it a try. I don't give a fuck about being powerful in MMOs I just like finding something cozy and sticking to it. Played SWG for years and didn't do anything but make clothes for people and run a shop.
Jayden Bell
Yeah I'm sure using that heart face tattoo makes you stand out from the crowd of the 100s of others using the exact same face type and haircut.
Nolan King
How are people fucking up rotating orbs? N/S are brain-dead if you don't care about it clipping to the E/W side after it begins firing, and E/W is literally a case of baiting those orbs up or down.
Cooper Barnes
In nearly six years of playing I've seen seen a character like mine and they're cutest lala EU
I got to Heavensward and my sub ran out. Classic was only three weeks away by then so I dropped it. Guess I'll come back later to at least finish the story but those 100 extra ARR quests were a real test of patience.
Luis Lewis
I don't really see repeating lalafells too often, outside of the teleporting bots.
Angel Brooks
You mean WoL wasn't doing that from 1.0 to 3.5? I might have liked Zenos if he was introduced way earlier, but I don't think this villain cliche really works when he's introduced after the protagonist has been fighting nonstop for months.
I would like to know too, fucking gave up on savage after about 15 hours of jumping parties because everyone is a bitch/ disorganized as hell and cant remember what side their on
Nicholas Wood
I had a group where I was stuck healing their mistakes, had a SW quadrant buddy for Delta, had to bait NW orb, and then handle E spinny. And then it'd be the DPS who has it easy mechanically that would keep fucking shit up.
Austin Gonzalez
I think it could use some improvements, mainly adding a second combo ender, making delirium unique and cutting back on the ogcd spam a little, but it is weird to me that everyone complained about DA spam in SB and now everyone complains that they want the old levels of MP regen back.

I can't read a single bit of that language but just by seeing the number 23 I guess it's yshtola lying about how old she is, and minifillia asking why the records show that she's older..
Michael Collins
Good news, they're knocking down the Wall in 5.3. Which is probably going to come out in a year or so, but it still shows that they know it's a problem and are working on a solution.
Lincoln Collins
Because PF standards and general IQ levels are too low to setup shit where people who are ranged just handle shit and position shit on their half of the arena, so I have to compensate since the DPS check on E1S is a joke anyways.
God forbid people can't stand around a square to dictate their spots, or need some 'neat' and tidy way of figuring out partners instead of just pairing the closest non-dps + dps. Use your bloody eyes.
Josiah Wright
My FC is a bit shit atm, I can't be arsed to recruit anyone.
We're just 6 odd people who left our old dead FC and made a new one, but everyone who has joined is silent for the most part. We run maps once a week, roulettes every day and are steadily getting through Eden Savage (2 guys have cleared them all with pugs)
Dunno what to do from here, I craft stuff for people but no one ever accepts help or goes through the FC chest for the shit I put in there.
Easton Collins
>Garlea Firstly it's Garlemald and secondly if you were paying attention you'd notice the scions are stopping any primal summoning from happening while you're away. That's what happens when you don't read the text, you end up an idiot. Should i list the number of primal summoning that happened since the start of the game? 17, all of them swiftly put down by you. Not a single one of them lived for more than a week. Thank you scions.

Jace Rodriguez
What to do with all the random crafting materials i find while leveling? Save it for later or just sell everything?
Gavin Carter
>standing next to the minotaur >not interrupting it yourself if you're a melee or even physical ranged You only have yourself to blame.

You can safely trash any sub level 50 mats. You can usually buy those from NPC vendors or harvest them yourself easily.
Xavier Price
>Twinning >tank, bard or dancer do not interrupt the centaur boys Guess I'll heal
Benjamin Butler
yeah sorry bro but that holy spam made him immune to stun.
Nicholas Diaz
Sell them. Most crafting materials are only used for a handful of recipes. The only ones maybe worth keeping are skins/hides but only if you're actually planning to level crafters otherwise you're just clogging up space.
Jordan Williams
Really? I subscribed for 90 days and I just played for 7 days.
>I subscribed for 90 days Yeah, that's why the cost for extra retainer is high for you. It scales up to your 90 days sub. It cost like 5 cents something per retainer if you only have few days left on the subs.
Ayden Moore
>I run SCH See? It's your fault after all.
Jayden Clark
I just target the mintautor and if they don't silence it and move out, that's it.

Liam Morgan
I'm 6'2 but a blob
Logan Phillips

Angel Jenkins
Thank you for explanation user.
Aiden Phillips
Could you at least try to explain what it is about the game that you don't like?
Benjamin Price
I am an indecisive fuck who loves everything but can't stick to 1-2 things so I ask: what jobs should I play as someone who is decent at everything and likes everything?
I find SCH less braindead than WHM in healing tanks on full pulls while minmaxing DPS. Only part WHM excels at is the ST damage on bosses and that's primarily it.
Jaxson Mitchell
how is this game if you like to solo play mostly? i love leveling things, and i hear you can have just 1 guy, but level him in each class? i used to play wow and hated that i have to have 13 alts to play, id rather focus on just one character
Jordan Murphy
play an easy job, go on auto pilot while doing your rotation flawlessly and just focus on doing mechanics perfectly
Lincoln Evans
You will be forced to group up for dungeons and bosses and stuff, but you can do it all automatically through party matching queues. XIV is very friendly for spergs who don't like to interact with people. And yes you can play every class on 1 character.
Tyler Davis
imagine spending a monthly fee (or a one time lump sum) + the cost of several expansions for "it gets good after 200 hours, promise
Zachary Taylor
im in the same boat of leveling everything in one character and i can say this is perfect game for it no need for parties party/duty finder takes care of dungeons and when you synth all your classes its becomes a pleasure ride
Ryder Davis
>how is this game if you like to solo play mostly? Too well

Does it get easier to get higher percentages as more and more average players clear the fight? Aka, as a general rule would it be easier to get orange on titan right now or in 2 months?
Mason Thomas
That's why you set up your own party finder and kick the mongloids causing multiple wipes. It's pretty late now though, as most people who havent done it yet, haven't for a reason.
Chase Mitchell
>tfw just leveling everything to 35 on trial and waiting for ARR quest fix and for FREE
Charles Nelson
Job is class, shard is server, data center is server cluster. Guilds are Free Companies or FCs, you can also have a chat you can invite anyone too called a linkshell.
Easton Watson
Where do i find a decent social/leveling FC in this game? No zone chat is so weird.
Grayson Davis
a lot of them this time around, i guess it would be quicker to name the not as easy jobs to optimize: ninja and summoner
i guess pick based on what niche you want to fill, RDM is the easiest dps but is a strong safety net for pugs. SAM and BLM just focus dps and don't pay any attention to what other players are doing except for positioning. all of the tanks are so close in balance it hardly matters which one you pick so go for which aesthetic you like the most. WHM for high personal dps, SCH for shields and good dps, AST for throwing cards at people and waiting for the balance patch
Cooper Green
if you're new you should be able to access novice chat but you can also go to party finder and set something up or just no life Palace of the dead and Heaven on high until 70 then queue for dungeons or do fates until 80
Isaiah Cook
there is zone chat though? unless you're on free trial and can't use shout. in any case it's really just luck of the draw if you don't have friends, try out any FC that'll take you, if they aren't interacting much and seem really cliquey don't hesitate to leave, since they won't care anyways

As agonizing as 2.5GCD is, when I saw footage of wow combat after not having done it for +10 years I forgot how atrociously bland wow combat animations are, and how floaty the combat is. If you reduced it to 2s GCD for everyone and then had SAM/NIN/MNK drop down even further I'd be pretty happy with it
As much as I like the Garlean principle, we know from the ascian's own mouths that the more desperate someone gets the more powerful the primal summoned will be. And if you cage a primal as in say, Ultima Weapon, you end up with a Bahamut situation down the line. Nevermind don't forget it was the Ascians who taught people and beast tribes how to summon primals. It's rather telling how nobody in the first has summoned a primal (unless there's some ferreted away quest that has a summoned primal) until the WoL starts to do so with Eden. It's because they literally do not know how.
Leo Gutierrez
What should I use yellow scrips on? Already got all the i350 gears.
Julian Gonzalez
Am I suppose to be double defense buffing such as rampart + raw intuition, because I noticed that if I pop only raw intuition I take a lot of damage from tank busters such as Shadowflame in E2S?
Easton Garcia
absolutely. There's a reason it has a short cooldown.
Luke Ward
you did it wrong, you spend scrips on materia and then meld the crafted gear
Blake Phillips
why huge tits though
Evan Edwards
Is that really worth it if I'm already like level 75? DoL, by the way.
Joseph Williams
I thought so because I noticed that all the tanks had some short cd. I just assume the short cds were there for tank busters and the longer ones for where the is doing repeated damage.
Colton Gray
Why not? You're gay or something?
Matthew Reed
oh sorry I didn't read the i350 part. it doesn't matter at that level because you're still leveling, but at max level the crafted gear is always better
Jonathan Gomez
>but at max level the crafted gear is always better Yeah, I do understand that. I'm just wondering what should I currently be spending yellow scrips on since I'm capping due to dol quests and custom deliv. Still materias?
Nolan Stewart
That looks awful. When everything is super flashy, nothing stands out.
Luke Long
brand new to ff14, currently lvling a black mage. lets say i hit max level, then want to switch to paladin, will my stats go back to lv 1 stats? what about gear, im assuming i wont be able to use the gear i have as a black mage
Chase Mitchell
Is it wrong to want to play SCH because they are the defacto canon glasses wearing job?
Michael Harris
Yep every class starts at level 1, no matter how high leveled your main one is. However every class below your max receives a 30% XP bonus to help level faster
Hudson James
Your BLM keeps its current level but you will have to level up PLD separately. >im assuming i wont be able to use the gear i have as a black mage Yes.
Angel Gutierrez
You know a game is starting to take off an do well when Yea Forums posts shitty bait posts about it.
Gavin Wright
it's actually 50% but it can be boosted well over 100%+ exp with buffs and special equipment until certain levels are reached
Alexander Gray
Yes, but the upper percentile will also move up as better players get their BiS.
>There's a reason for the Ascians having Greek names but they cannot explain it without spoilers >Can't cite Lahabrea's real name either for spoiler reasons.
Interedasting.
Adam Peterson
>Just a bunch of lore questions. >on a advertised Lore Q&A WOW! Who would have thought?!
can I still get all the relic weapons from past expansions? Just now starting the anima quest from HW
Carson Jones
yes, although I think that getting a Eureka weapon now is basically impossible because no one runs Eureka anymore (but the weapons suck so it's not a big loss)
David Foster
I still haven't stepped foot in Eureka actually...the quest is still sitting in my journal
Sebastian Brooks
Tanks have the easiest rotations and the easiest mechanics in savage, and yet they still constantly mess up simple things.
Brody White
>Almost done with 4.0 >In 75 minute queue for Shinryu Never had much trouble at late night hours before, but I guess the pool of players leveling other jobs thins out at this range.
Cooper Howard
It was funny reading the question submission thread on the official forums because like 50% of the questions are just flagrant bitching about healers. They're not even really questions, and they phrase them in a way where there's literally zero chance they'll ever get answered or taken seriously.
It's basically like: "In Shadowbringers you decided to ruin Scholar. Can you explain why you hate your players?" over and over, even when the first post says not to post duplicate questions.
Juan Rivera
Tank player tend to have ape iq
Ryder Cruz
What will be added in 5.1?
Ethan Miller
2.5GCD still feels really short when you're trying to keep a perfect rotation under high pressure
Zachary Bell
>2.5 >high pressure Jesus fuck dude
Lucas Gray
>virtually none of the higher ilevel caster gear has spell speed I don't even want to spend my tomestones now.
When you add oGCDs and the fact that as a dps you should always be using a skill the instant it's off GCD, while dealing with difficult savage mechanics, yeah, that's high pressure and I can only assume you're LARPing or playing a brainlet class to think otherwise.
there even was a literal "why do you hate healers?" one in the OF thread
but nice that the stupid "we are Hythlodeus" theory got shot down, and Foxclon going LA-HEE was too precious
Oliver Sanders
Be glad they didn't give it to the RDM. There's also dancers who choose summoner over black mage.
Aiden Green
>2019 >Not having the meta-privilege Just play MNK already
Ryder Lopez
Savage bosses are way too lenient on groups that aren't topped off on life. Healers don't even pre-cast for tank busters or AoE damage anymore because the boss just sits there auto attacking the tank for 20 seconds. Also instant AoE heals were a mistake.
Savage bosses were tuned for first week bare min ilvl clear. >Savage bosses are way too lenient on groups that aren't topped off on life. Oh trust me, you will definitely die to Earthen Fury even if you're topped off but don't have any shield and/or raidwide mitigation.
Jack Harris
I absolutely do agree that the overabundance of instant oGCD heals has made the act of healing itself really dry. I miss the risk/reward balance of healing and damage from ARR, back when Cleric Stance was actually a stance.
Grayson Scott
Blue Mage 51-60 Alliance/Nier 24 Man Raid 3rd Extreme Trial (for the final story boss) Restoration of Ishgard New PvP content First Beast Tribe (likely Fae) New 4-Man dungeons New Story content Hildebrand and Artifact Grind if we’re lucky.
Christopher Evans
Well I know there are outliers, but as a general rule it's safe to say the amazing players already have their bis right now at week 4, no? Not the full thing because that's impossible due to phantasmagoria caps, but pretty much 80% ish.
Levi Lewis
Definitely won't have relics in 5.1. If they're planning a Eureka successor which it sounds like they are, it'll be around 5.25 like Eureka was. Also it'll only be 1 dungeon following the normal formula from Stormblood. 2 dungeons on even patches. 5.1 should also have the new Ultimate fight.
