3.15 coming in 5 months. Please look forward to it.
Where did everything go so wrong? This game literally has 0 content
3.15 will be released mid-to-late December.
According to Japanese interview.
>add easy way to get welfare gear for shitters
>still no good way to level up besides spamming dungeons
fuck you SE
>>318012220
December 2016? Damn Yoshida.
diadem drop rates got nerfed. someone was complaining about how it was raiders clearing savage that caused the nerf.
i thought it was bads complaining they weren't getting credit at all in diadem.
what is it?
>>318012074
More like half a month.
>>318013303
They're complaining that you can potentially get BiS gear for shitting around in Diadem when ideally, you should only maybe get 200, 205 gear at best from it.
And also that you should be able to kick shitters who sit around doing nothing but are allowed to roll on gear.
>>318012074
>playing WoW with chocobos
Haha no.
Was it worth it
>>318013927
People should just go in with their static if they're really trying to get gear.
Gatherer's have rights, too.
>>318014081
I'm so damn close to getting that dance
>>318014485
Well that's pretty much what you'd do anyways I think.
Pugs in Diadem only have loot greed rules and you can't do Hard which is where most of the 210 gear will come in. I got a tank who got pissy at me because it was a pugged Diadem and I was rolling on tank gear, and I told him pretty simply. It's pugs, greed only, so I'm greeding. Nobody is going to use this underleveled gear anyways except to trade them in for tokens.
>>318014669
If it makes you feel better you get it when you reach Rank 6. rank 7 I don't know what else you get aside from the title (Sundrop Dancer) and the ability to buy the Sanuwa mount.
>>318014684
No one has any right to complain about not getting 150/180 gear.
>game still dropping subs left and right
>3.1 didn't do jackshit to revitalize the game
>shit boring content that's already been beaten to death
>5 more months of it
>3.15 will just add shitty regurgitated content and will pass it off as the new relic quest, hope you like doing atma all over again, and some Memebrand quests you can complete in an hour
>b-b-but muh 5 million accounts and more coming from current sales, look at all these people buying the game for $10 that means the game is profitable even if the big majority won't sub after their free 30 day trial or drop the game halfway through it
>>318012180
Oh no, the game has plenty of content.
It's just 99% of it is irrelevant at endgame because of the linear progression system.
>>318015121
>Hunts AGAIN
>No story fight
>Only real content is Thordan EX and Void Ark
Compare to 2.1 which had
>Mog HM
>Garuda, Ifrit, Titan EX
>Ultima HM
>Labyrinth
Someone should fire Yoshi already.
>>318014485
>Gatherer's have rights, too.
Yep, you have the right to not contribute to dps at all and therefore shouldn't bitch when they make it so you can't roll on gear, asshat. If you want to gather mats like an autist for 90min you should join a PF group instead of screwing 7 other peeps and then proceed to roll on their loot.
>>318014081
Yes, its the best on roes.
On females of any race, it looks like pure shit.
>>318015465
I prefer being a tiny potato striking fear into the hearts of burly owl men many times my size.
>>318015419
I think they commented on the desire to basically group parties on class desires, as in people pugging to gather will be partied with other gatherer focused people.
Can't remember if they said "We're working on it" or "Deal with it"
>>318015121
>there are people that don't just do the new content, play just enough to keep their gear updated, and then main FFXI.
>friend is doing Rav EX for weapon as DRG, he's trying to gear up and doesn't want to wait on his esoteric weapon at the moment
>both times the DRG weapons drop he loses them to another, shittier DRG
>the second time was to a shitty DRG who despite being so fucking shitty had his upgraded esoteric weapon so he didn't need the weapon at all
>do Rav EX for the first time because I figure I finally need to get it done

Oh please make him come back as the final boss of 3.X
>>318015558
The vanu cutscenes as a potato must be hilarious
>>318017261
It is truly a wonder to send the Vundu running from my powerful sundrop dance.
>>318012286
at least the leveling and 50 roulette give a solid half level every day now
used to be like 1/4th of a level, maybe 1/3rd if you throw in the trial as well
>>318016902
did you not learn anything from bahamut
the only times summoning a primal has gone well is at the battle of carteneau and inef - a fairy tale of the two

>>318017502
Don't forgetwhen you are summoned at the beginning of the game
>>318018006
>this shitty reddit theory again
The Scions have aetherometers that trace Primals. They would've noticed you immediately. But you are currently becoming a Primal the same way Louisoix did because all of Eorzea sees you as a hero and is praying for you to save them from whatever bullshit problem they're facing.
>>318012220
whats it gonna add anyway other than houses
This is the most disappointing MMO that I've played.
>>318018160
I'm pretty sure the Echo keeps that from happening, but I wouldn't mind fighting a "Warrior of Light" primal that gets spawned by everyone.
>>318014764
How much is the mount btw? I remember from doing the Sylph quests that their mount was about 120K
>>318018286
relic quest
>>318018302
You've never played Spiral Knights
>>318018343
Ysayle had the Echo and summoned Shiva into herself. The Echo prevents you from tempering because it removes all power inhibitors from your soul, but that same trait would enable you to become a Primal even easier.
>>318018396
wow its fucking nothing
>>318018343
Giant WoD vs Giant WoL mech fight when
>>318018160
What the fuck makes you think the scions aren't in on it though?
>>318018391
I think it's 200K.
The sanuwa doesn't really wow me anyways because they've showcased it since 3.0 benchmark, and you ride it a lot doing vanu quests anyways.
>>318018160
Who do you think prayed to summon us, anon?
>>318018438
Or GW2. God damn, that game is a snooze fest.
>>318018302
Out of all the expansions/MMOs released this summer, Tree of Savior was far more disappointing than HW.
>supposed to be the next Ragnarok
>linear maps, shit monster AI, horrible netcode, horrible optimization
>>318018441
stop calling it tempering, that only applies to Ifrit.
it's enthralling. Each primal's thralls are named after a certain thing.
Ifrit Thralls are Tempered.
Leviathan Thralls are Drowned
Odin Thralls are Sundered.
>>318018574
>a group of people who have spent the last 15 years fighting Primals
>their leader was planning to kill himself at Carteneau halfway through a summoning ritual to avoid summoning Primal versions of the Twelve
>they suddenly think it's a good idea to summon a Primal
>>318018709
Nobody, because you weren't summoned at the beginning. Again, the Scions would have seen the aetherial signature of a Primal right next to them with the aetherometers they all wear. Traditional summoning also requires a shitload of crystals and a specific ritual. Louisoix became a Primal through a different method of transformation. Everyone was praying for him to save them, and he was surrounded by all the aether he gathered to try and trap Bahamut.
The Warrior of Light is world famous and has everyone praying for them, and is constantly surrounded by fucktons of aether. Even gathering enough with Tupsimati to blast an ascian into oblivion. So what do you think is happening?
i'm pretty comfortable doing alex normal at this point. haven't done savage yet because i don't have time to commit to it.
how is thordan ex compared to alex normal? and what about bis and rav ex for that matter?
>>318019216
thordan ex is designed for people already hitting alex savage 3 and 4
this thread seems to be full of WoWdrones that have nothing to play until their "expansion" that is as big as a free XIV content patch.
>yoshida should be fired
>the guy who made money from a lost title
>fired
hah
>>318019216
bismark ex isn't really that hard
its pretty much the same except unlike the normal version if you stay on top of him when he shudders you fall of the map and die. Theres also a weather mechanic but it shouldnt be too hard to dodge
>>318016487
Fucking hate that shit. Helped an FC member get her first clear while I was on my like 12th. Was after the WHM staff but it never dropped so I shot for the claws or axe after my 7th clear. When I helped her, she goes in as WHM and the staff finally dropped.
>>318019623
He's not hard at all, but people are retarded as hell.
>>318019607
>the guy who made money from a lost title by implementing things that were already planned from the beginning
>the guy who has had us doing hunts for a year and a half
>the guy who made us wait 5 months just because of Lord of Verminion
>>318019607
he did nothing wrong
there's just too few people working on the xiv team so all it gets are half-baked content updates like diadem + verminion, which were both dead and boring content a week after 3.1 came out
don't forget about tomes and the shit itemization
>>318019757
>planned from the beginning
i dont think tanaka planned to make a good game, lad.
>>318018006
But you didn't get summoned in 1.0, you were just traveling to Eorzeato find your fathertoo bad that part got cut early.

>>318019898
Everything that Yoshi put in 1.0 was already planned by Tanaka. But SE rushed out the game to compete with Cataclysm.
Yoshi then removed everything that made 1.0 unique and interesting to make the game into a WoW clone. ARR was fun at the beginning, but he's just been repeating content since then. Heavensward added absolutely no new systems except for collectibles.
This is also the same faggot that took out interesting gear like elemental damage and haste and other unique qualities because he didn't want to confuse people who were new to MMOs.
Don't forget the localization team changed Hauchform from what he originally was in the Japanese version because he was too much of a homo.
>>318018660
I think it's pretty cool and I don't really spend my Gil on anything else besides glamour maintaining the appearance of my Doman armor over my esoteric armor. (Finally settled on maining NIN after wracking my brain between that, BRD, MCH, WAR, and possibly SMN. I hate the NIN esoteric gear tho, the Doman gear is pretty rad tho. Pretty happy with finally maining something)
>>318020093
>1.0 unique and interesting
holy shit senpai, you seem to have brain problemsi leveled to 50 in 1.0 twice and you are retarded and have a romantic vision of 1.0 that never existed, just like all the XI delusionals that think XI would hold up if it was released nowadays how it is now.
>>318019623
Weather mechanic is in Normal too but I think yellow weather is exclusive to EX, also swapping snakes depending on the debuff, rest is about the same yeah.
>>318020093
you know he can atleast make dungeons that aren't the same shit over and over again
I know people shit on neverreap but I thought the second boss was cool because you had to move around the totems and shit
but no most bosses are just dodge aoe and kill adds plz
>>318020093
What about numbered spells instaed of ra aga and aja? Were they like that in 1.0 or did Yoshida change the to I II III in ARR?
>>318012074
2.4 was literally the best time to start playing
>final coil is out
>loads of content to do
>crafted gear allows anyone to jump into endgame content after a week of spiritbinding, especially if you're a bard or warrior
>crafted gear meant there were lots of gil buyers, so I could sustain my subscription for free by RMTing gil
If I could see the future I would have quit playing in late April, when I had finished messing around in unlocked coil and just before the static I had cleared T13 with got bored of raiding and dissolved.
>>318020203
Only in the english Version. German, France and japanese Version are right.
>>318019869
I think verminion is neat, but it's really daunting to jump into when you already have 100 minions.
And of course... no MOBA has a pay wall so if anyone feels like playing one they can just go play a real one.
>>318020287
It's actually ra/ga in every language except english because the localization team thinks americans are retarded.
So instead we get Blizzard 2/3
>>318020287
its not yoshida, its your fucking memetastic localization team, all other languages have FF lingo in the spells and shit.
>>318020253
>1.X didn't get fun by 1.19
Okay, faggot.
>>318020287
He changed them because they were convinced English speakers would get confused. They're still -ra, -aga, and -aja in the Japanese version.
>>318020287
They're still ra aga and aja in Japan.
I believe some other countries kept it that way, too.
>>318019898
He did senpai, too bad he got rushed by Wada and was forced to release an unfinished beta, then Yoshida swooped in and just gave to go to slowly add everything they already had planned for final version and got all his shitty undeserved cred for it, despite being a total hack.
>>318020363
>>318020367
>>318020373
I knew about them not being numbered in pretty much every other language. I was just curious if they were numbered back in 1.0 as well. That's probably the thing that annoys me the most about this game.
>>318020287
Don't forget the changes to the name of sch spells for some reason. I can't remember why though since sch is suppose to be a tactical mage.
>>318020481
I didn't know about that one, got any examples?
>>318020421
Let's be honest anyone could have taken the helm after Tanaka and still made a good game so Yoshi being the 'savior" is ridiculous.
>>318020235
Cont. I'm waiting to see what the Gnath quests have in store for us. Hopefully it functions the same as the Vanu quests in that you can do it at any level 50+. Also interested to see whatever mount they pull out. Better be a fucking giant heracross beetle.
>>318020421
>tanaka "outsource it to the chinese that will call chocobos horsebirds" planned a good game but SE was evil!!
Stop posting, tanaka.
I miss when content was fun.
First coil was rad as fuck.
God I hate male potatoes
I mean I understand people like to play female potatoes because they think they're cute (and they are usually female players) but fuck male potatoes are so fucking annoying
>>318020601
>implying it was Tanaka's decision
>implying it wasn't Wada trying to take over the chinese market like WoW did
>SE CAN DO NOTHING WRONG IT WAS ALL TANAKA'S FAULT GOOD RIDDANCE I SAY!
Corporate apologists are the literally the most retarded faggots.
>>318020601
Tanaka made Final Fantasy XI and was the most profitable Final Fantasy in the series and still a beloved game even after 14 years.
>>318020481
>>318020545
>Adloquium was "Encouragement Plan"
>Succor was "Morale Lifting Plan"
>Leeches was "Life Purifying Method".
>Lustrate was "Life Refresh Method"
>Sacred Soil was "Battlefield Medical Treatment Circle"
These fit with the HW actions like Emergency Tactics and Deployment Tactics.
I'm sure Indomitability, Broil and Dissipation have tactical sounding japanese names.
>>318020849
Something to realize is that those names are rather long, and in Japanese they're extremely short.
>>318020714
I want to fuck a male potato
Are these threads allowed again? And more importantly, is 3.1 worth coming back for?
It seems like from what most people are saying that it's just as shitty as 3.0.
>>318020203
>If playing a female

and he tried to make XI again which simply doesnt work today.
>>318020849
That's not too bad honestly. Those names are too long.
>>318021075
But XI is still the best MMO.
>>318020849
english localization team is full of memetastic faggots, blame them.
>>318021134
>im delusional
>>318020849
Battlefield medical treatment circle doesn't really make sense. Makes it sounds like it heals when it's just a shield. Though sacred soil kinda makes it sound religious or whatever which is more WHMs schtick
>>318020714
I feel the opposite way
>>318021229
>I never played xi and care too much about modern graphics and ui to give it a chance and experience its depth
ok
>>318021306
Don't take the translation literally.
It's like saying Earth Study instead of Geology.
>>318021075
>2.0 by Wada
Yeah, and he was forced to quit a month after release. Nevermind that it only was approved after the entire board was onto him for all the shit decisions he made and was a last ditch effort "save" the company. It shows, 2.0 and 3.0 are made of 90% rehashed content every patch to save on costs.
I'd rather have a man with a great history of games that was suddenly forced to release an unfinished product than a 3rd rate hack who only worked as a janitor for shitty throwaway DQ titles, until somehow hacked his way into DQX and then got thrown into 4.0, only because of how disposable he was.
>>318021142
I'll give it to them for a couple funny fate names but the English localization for anything is always fucking cancerous
Can never do a 1:1 translation. Not even closely translated, they change meanings all the fucking time.
I hate they fucking called thief 'rogue' in this game. It's always been fucking thief. Rogue is a wow fucking class.
Spell names a shit. The 1 2 3 naming convention is shit. You instantly think without playing the previous games that it's the level progression. Same thing spell but stronger. Nope. That's how you confuse new players.
>>318020849
Oh wait I looked them up.
Indomitability: 不撓不屈の策 (Unflagging Plan) ?
Broil: 気炎法 (Kien Method) ?
Deployment Tactics: 展開戦術 (Deployment Tactics)
Emergency Tactics: 応急戦術 (Emergency Tactics)
Dissipation: 転化 (Conversion)
>>318020984
>>318021078
That's what proper localization is for.
Scholars are tacticians and thus their skills should sound tactical. Adloquium and Succor are religiously. They could easily be translated to something like "Revitalize Stratagem" and "Inspiring Strategem"
Leeches could be "Purifying Method" and Lustrate "Refresh Method". Sacred Soil would be better as like "Barricade Circle"
>>318021435
>tanaka is such a great dev
>his game was shit
see the contradiction buddy?
meanwhile
>yoshi has less time then tahacka
>produces a better game.
????
>>318021306
Same thing with Assize being a type of court justice, something a SCH would have by being rigorous in their research, especially coming from Arcanists and their jobs at customs, while Indomitability is something a White Mage with Dvine Holy power would have.
>>318021629

I'm laughing.

Hmm. It's like your baiting.

So Deployment Tactics and Emergency Tactics isn't long names?
>>318021701

>>318021598
Adlo and Succor aren't religious terms.
They're just latin words.
>>318021835
MNK for fun
>>318021835
Dragoon
Yeah the first 30 levels are gonna drag but don't you wanna be death from the sky at 60?
But monk for funny easy dps but you won't be topping any charts
>>318021835
why not both friendo?
Am I the only one who gets nervous tanking
I never did a 8 man primal because I'm scared to fuck up
I must be a faggot
>>318021794
>they say they want XI like content that's more involved and substantial than killing 4 shitty raid bosses for 6 months
>what's that, they want XI? just copy and paste some models and you're done
Again, big hacks.
>>318021771
I think he means spelled out. They can usually make longer words/phrases with less characters because of how theirs work
>>318021835
Level Monk for fun and good job but all the hardcore raidfags don't want you.
Level Dragoon to be the continued laughed at joke player.
>>318021857
No, but they sound religiousy considering everyone in this game is praying for succor
Or is aught amiss
>>318012074
>materia
>doesn't add actions or traits
>does nothing special but boosting attributes
>>318021937
I was leveling up DRK but I gave up after I finished the 30-50 class storyline because I couldn't handle the pressure of tanking. I know it's easy as fuck in this game but it still breaks me mentally.
>>318021975
I can pray for bones, it doesn't suddenly mean bones are religious.
>>318022017
>it still breaks me mentally.
You sound like a healer
You should start healing and leave tanking to the real men

>>318022017
>I know it's easy as fuck in this game
Not him, but how is tanking in other mmos, because XIV is the only mmo I've played.
>>318021942
>i want content only neets can do because it takes half your lifetime away
>>318022060
I can pray for you but nobody gonna pray for me
>>318022084
not him but I honestly think dps is the least stressful job in the game
I can understand people not wanting to tank because of all the responsibilities
I can understand people not wanting to heal because they usually get all the blame for a wipe
but dps? nah just press buttons senpai, no one is gonna call you out for your horseshit
>>318021954
Why is MNK so fun yet so soul crushingly lonely. Nobody wants you for Savage. Is this the price we pay? Is the path of a MNK destined to be so lonely?
>>318021937
>play qt female lala warrior
>pet all the other party members
>do max deeps
also if you're new to something just say you're new, people will understand
I've literally never had someone leave when I announced I was new
>>318022230
A true MNK follows a path of solitude, anyway.
You have no need of those heathens.
>>318022140
>I want content I can do in two hours each week and then log off and not play for the rest of the week because look at me I have 20 jobs and don't have time to play videogames

In other mmos you actually have to respond to fight mechanics
Here you can just stand there and facetank
>>318022230
>caring about raiding
Im too busyand shitfisting enemies all day to bother trying to raid.
>>318012074
I'll never forget when Relics got their i115 upgrade and became better than Second Coil weaps. The elites got so mad they ddos'd forums and games for 2 days.
Cant wait to see it all again when relic weaps come out and shit on A4S weaps
>>318022309
>hasn't done the best primal fight in the game
>>318022394
I don't see why they shouldn't. Why would I waste time getting a weapon that's already obsolete?
>>318022287
>>318022140
Its okay guys, Yoshi admitted he was "depressed" that less than 1% of population beat A4S. He's finally realised that catering to hardcores is entirely fruitless. From now on we'll have First Coil difficulty at max.
>>318021937
As someone who plays all roles in most games you fucking up is fine most times the healer or a DPS fucking up is not
>>318022474
Thats how most people think but elitist scum will argue that only they should ever have the best weaps and armor for being ubermensch or nojobs or whatever. I dunno bro!
>>318022530
I don't mind some difficulty but I don't understand why there has to be content that's so difficult that only poopsock raiders can hope to clear it
content that's intended for progression or something. Savage coil was totally optional and didn't really give you anything.
>>318022474
Because it makes all their "hard work" pointless when some shitter who can just grind easy shit can get a better weapon. I don't care either way, welfare tome shitter for life here.
>>318022624
205 wont' be "obsolete" until 3.2 when the next relic step and more raid gear is out.
Why is being a single weapon damage below A4S too much to ask?
>>318022309
That's because the players are holding your hand.
Off tanks should really have more fights that have them soak attacks for people.
>>318022309
Do you have any examples such as videos?
>>318022230
Yes.
Good thing I don't care about savage.
why is femroe best girl? No one else can compete with that gameplay and plot.
The main issue with FFXIV right now are the casuals. They complain because things are too hard. The Dev team then just nerf things left and right and it's just becoming the norm for them to do.
It's honestly sickening.
Yes Heavensward is pretty lack luster at the moment.
Alexander is just visually unappealing and the story is pretty lackluster compared to first coil. We all thought Alexander would be the next best thing next to coil. We we're wrong. However there is still the other arm, and the head in the future, though I bet they will be visually unappealing as well.
Main Scenario story should of been much more longer. At least half the length of what ARR was. Not just a piece of it.
I just want Yoshida and the dev team to pull a miracle out of their asses and have the next update actually bring something to the game. I mean yea we're getting a training area, dyeable allaghan gear, and relic weapon upgrades, but it's still not enough.
It's just what some other anons said, people just log in, do their dailies, get their VA weekly gear, cap out on tomes and that's it.
They are gaining and losing subs that just nullify each other.
I love the game, but even I know it's lacking with Heavensward at the moment.

It's funny how the ex primal weapons are worse than the poetics weapons
what were they thinking
>>318022894
Ass slider when?
>>318021835
Dragoon is pretty cool asthetically as they were definately given the best looking and well thought armor as opposed to everyone else. Monk will always be badass, especially with their 14th Chakra spam at the beginning of every fight. So I guess it's your choice.
Relic should go back to the way it started.
Make players clear the harder content to get the upgrades every other tier.
>>318022917
Glamour. with the fancy particle effects on them this is the only reason to have them and people will pay for them anyways
Though I preferred just earning them anyways, like upgraded Levi and Shiva weaponstfw Ramuh weapons never got upgraded versions. I would have liked a more intense purple with lightning arcing around

silly anon they REMOVED asses from XIV with ARR.

What were they thinking? I remember waiting 45 mins to do this trial and when I finally got to it it ended in less than a minute.
Nowadays when I get it on duty trials newbies always say "Thats it?" after the thing ends
>>318023290
Trials are generally garbage.

Is Yoshi low test then?

Nah, I fucking love the Ramuh weapons how they are. Btw, I've been looking for that fucking starglobe for fucking ever. Oh well, got just about every other ramuh weapon
>>318023506
I like starglobes with an actual globe in the middle.

I don't know how you bards did it with wanderers minuet or whatever. This is horseshit. Got machinist to 60, never use him for anything other than solo where i just run around with gauss bulllshit off.
Just fuck my job up.
I've only just finished the ARR story as a SMN.
I enjoy the game. I even actually like how it promotes being social with some trials/dungeons/whatevers being required in the story unlike in WoW I did all of WoD solo without doing a single dungeon.
>>318023593
I'd be happy if we get the gypsy globe that new lala cat eared npc has. I'm all for simplicity, which is why I like the base primal weapons more than the flashy ones.
>>318023686
I saw a render of Krile using a crystal ball as a starglobe, does she do that in-game?
>>318023610
whats so bad about it
the only lvl 60s i have is SUM/SCH and those aren't that bad
>>318023663
Social my ass. You cant actually go through the story with friends or other people.
Its railroaded solo shit 90% of the time and then they want you to team up with randoms for easy dungeons and then force you back onto the single player shit.
Options dont exist.
>>318022003
But there were plenty of stat-boosting materia in VII...
>>318023810
Adds cast time to weapons kills and I'm pretty sure the level 50+ skills can only be used while it's on. I don't have BRD Or MCH past 59 but it does seem annoying given how much more mobile they were before.
>>318023829
But in VII, they weren't exclusively stat boosters.
>>318023610
Wanderer's Minuet and Gauss Barrel really did fuck up the jobs. I knew that gauss barrel would've fucked up my rotation because I already went through the process with Bard, but I was like whatever it won't be that bad. It was. How on earth can you strip the two mobile ranged jobs of their mobility. Literally bowmancer and gunmage now. Luckily, MCH has alot of procs (or crit chances, whatever the kids are calling them these days), so it's not like it's as affected as BRD is.
>>318022220
Dps is only "least stressful" in the sense that there is no offical parser so there is no way for someone to call out the shitter dps.
Tanks and healers are apparent since they deal with mechanics and keeping people alive.
>>318023737
I assume she will at some point if she hasn't already. I donno, I skip all the cutscenes, especially all of 3.1's.
The only thing that interests me about her character is the possibility of getting a gypsy globe
>>318023610
Machinist needs a rework or something.
From what I've seen for Bard, they have a lot more abilities in Wanderer's Minuet that actually do loads of damage, and it's easier to keep their DoTs up with it.
I have a huge problem with Machinist where I forget about reapplying Hot Shot and Lead Shot. Plus I still can't nail down the correct way to shit damage while Wildfire's up for the max burst.
>>318023737
>>318024007
Not sure if it's the right part but she uses like an aether eye or whatever that Matoya has to help find Thancred. It's basically a crystal ball but she doesn't actually hold it. Just does that arm reach out thing you do like when you attune with an aetheryte.
>>318024015
If I were you I'd only apply wildfire if you know you hit serious damage. Otherwise it's useless. Also, you really only need to apply it to bosses. Trash mobs or random enemies usually die before the attack goes off.
>>318024015
I just wonder why they have to fill the same exact niche. They could have put different effects on their turrets that the Bard can't do but instead you get Army's Paeon and Mage's Ballad.
>>318020849
>>318020481
>>318020363
>>318020367
Don't forget how the "Paladin" job is actually "Knight" in Japan, and all the holy/religious names for skills are all changes from the originals. I hope that an actual Paladin Job comes out and the English localizers have to scramble some bullshit names together for it.
>>318024128
New job: GYP Gypsy.
why did they make krile a potato
I mean I can let it slide because she's actually a decent character but I don't see why they just didnt make her a teenage midlander
>>318024263
Have to keep the potato quota filled.
>>318024195
At least Machinist can increase the enemy's physical vulnerability, r-right guys?
>>318024196
Knight having access to white mage spells is pretty much Paladin though.
If they added a Paladin shit would be really samey.
>>318024195
I kinda wish that the turrets would follow you similarly to how Egis would. I mean, I understand that it's somewhat of a trademark of the job to be strategic in where you put your bot but I sometimes forget to lay it down and damn it I wanted a robot pet.
>>318024196
the idea of DARK knight makes a lot more sense now
>>318024228
I'd play it.
They missed a golden chance to name the Machinist class Ranger instead, and use the abbreviation RNG.
>>318024263
I ask the question solely because her name isn't lore friendly.
>>318024340Knights have had the ability to cast weak white magic since the first game in the franchise, dorkus.
>>318021339
Another anon, but I tried to play it but it's convoluted as fuck.
>B-but talk to the NPCs
They don't help you for shit, I mean they don't even drop hints hardly ever and anyone who has ever played a long time just says "look it up on the wiki"
>>318024371
if Turrets followed you then people would complain that MCH is literally just a physical summoner
>>318024196
Not gonna happen, they've already used up the Paladin series staple ability, cover.And it's barely useful. I wish they would buff it to redirect any incoming damage.
>>318024474
Im still hoping that at some point theyll move on to a next step of 'super jobs' in which they literally combine 2 or 3 jobs into 1 job. So, if one has BRD and MCH leveled up they'll have the ability to play as a RNG which will be given a new set of skills and a new weapon
>>318024263
>>318022530
No, the problem is this game only caters to two people. Hardcore and casuals. There is nothing inbetween.
>people unironically believe that ff11 is better than ff14
>>318024592
Because their pets follow them. Disregarding entirely that they don't play the same at all
>>318024623
Any buff would do them a world of good.
I want to fuck a Lalafell. Help me.
>>318024634
You should stop hoping.

If you didn't need to form a static to attempt it, I'd be happy to do it.
>literally 0 people are willing to just go in and try A1S
>only parties that "promise to meet up at a specific time on specific days" as if playing a videogame with random folks online is a fucking job
>can't be done through duty finder
>literally have to party up with no-fun-allowed assholes who demand that you have experience with the fight
How can one have experience if every group requires experience and a daily commitment. It's a videogame, just let us go in and fucking beat the fuckers.
>>318024573
Sure, but there were no Paladins in FF1.
And later on they simply put that into Cecils portfolio and the Paladin Job was created.
In FF5 Knights were nothing but tanks who used guard.
But FF5 also lacks a Paladin job for some reason.
>>318025028
This is exactly why I quit.
That fucking catch 22 of needing to have nearly cleared something in order to try running it with people.
>>318025138
And this game has a direct tie in with FF1
>>318025138
Yeah, but it had sick stuff like the Magic Knight and Mime.I know most people prefer OCs, but if the rest of the Void Ark raids aren't references to either 4 or 5, I'll be upset.
>>318025261
This game has references and ties for every FF.
>>318024893
This. I pop in for updates and play FFXI the rest of the time.
>>318025206
That's why you watch the guide then lie telling them your doing this on an alt so when the new person thing pops up they won't suspect a thing.
>>318025261
Not really. Most of the games in the franchise are referenced pretty heavily (especially 3, Jesus...)
>>318024263
Well Krile in V is a loli so...
>>318025353
>"log in on your alt and link achievement"

Not him, but I've tried that before and been kicked anyway on two separate occasions (and one for fucking Ifrit EX no less, like it was actually hard in any way).
>>318025465
I want them to do all the reps so we don't see 50 of the same cosplay.
>>318025410
>loli
>14
>>318025482
Yep. It's 3 weeks old now, better have full experience with the fight or you can't try it! :^)
any chance of heavensward going on sale anytime soon on pc/steam?
>>318025542
I'm surprised I don't see more Clouds aroundI guess even people like that can't sub long enough to get the outfit.
>>318024015
I don't understand either. Why was it necessary to make another BRD with like 3 times the buttons to press to do the same damage? The homogenization is fucking real.
>>318025706
Most people don't glamour the veteran rewards simply because majority of the players are people that have been around since the beginning.
It's not special when everyone has it.
>>318024015
>I have a huge problem with Machinist where I forget about reapplying Hot Shot and Lead Shot.
Bard is basically the same in this regard. You still have to keep Straight Shot up while reapplying/keeping your dots up.
>>318025571
Loli is a body type.
>>318025920
How many shots do Bards use in an endgame rotation anyway?
>>318024634
They tried that with arc and splitting sch and smn and now Yoshi has said it's hard to balance the jobs.
>>318020317
>>loads of content to do
loads of irrilevant content.
Unless you think the 2.1. primals were relevant still.
>>318026073
The jobs are already unbalanced so I don't see how that is even a valid excuse anymore
>>318026234
>people are still farming for ponies regularly
When will they learn.
>>318026384
Can't MCH solo EX primals with the turret glitch?
surefireway to grind 1-50 quickly? god this game is boring when you run out of quest
>>318026429
What glitch?
>>318026465
Do your leveling roulette daily. It accounts for almost an entire level
>>318026475
Something about tossing your turret in a specific place that will make the boss aggro it and just sit there and do nothing while you kill it.
>>318025340
>play FFXI the rest of the time.
May nigga.
FFXI as so much content that it's ridiculous.
>>318026595
Sounds hilarious. Do you know anything about it or how to replicate it?
>>318025659
It's $16 on Newegg.
>>318026795
Not at all. Apparently SCH fairies can do it as well.
>>318026595
>Not just using a bot to teleport above the enemy to achieve the same effect
>>318026602
To be fair, XI has been consistently updated for over 13 years. ARR has only had, what, 3? If you give this game 10 more years, It'll have more content, too.
Not saying XI isn't better, just pointing that out.
>tfw completionist tendencies
The content I haven't cleared yet is gonna carry me to next patch and beyond, feels good
>>318026948
Sounds like it would reset.
>>318026061
Quelling -> Straight -> Blood -> WM -> Drop all offensive CD -> Venom -> Flamning -> Windbite -> Barrage ->Empyreal -> Sidewinder -> Heavy/Straighter until you gotta use Iron Jaws.
Non-opener BRD is just reapplying IJ and Straight and waiting for empyreal, sidewinder and barrage to come off CD.
>>318027006
Whenever I feel like I need something to do in XIV, I just start leveling a new class. Too bad for all the nutbars who grinded and no-lifed only to run themselves out of content.
>>318026073
That's one job splitting into two, merging two jobs into one would be quite different.
>>318027006
And you'll spend 75% of it waiting in queues for dead content.
>>318026465
Play dungeons. They've already boosted the XP gain to a stupidly high amount.
