Got a bluebird in Aquapolis today. They only go for 70k on my server now. How has Aquapolis fucked your server's economy?
>>343468827
I started this game recently, it's a lot of fun for an MMO but I've taken a few days off since I'm afraid of getting burned out. I'm hoping I can make it to HW content quickly so I can become a DRK
>>343469701
I would save as many sidequests as possible for DRK if you're planning to main it on your first character. Fate parties are pretty dead now that the rush is long over and you wont have the main story quests to help you level the DRK when you finally get it.
>>343470470
Okay thanks for the advice, do you play DRK by the way? What's your take on the job? I just got to PLD and I think it's okay but I don't really have much to say considering I only have sword oath at the moment and no other unique skills.
>>343470621
Not him but it's the most fun Tank to play IMO but obviously not as good at WAR, which is still the best Tank by a long distance.
It's got a lot of OGCDs (in comparison to the slower WAR and absolutely lethargic PLD) so you're always doing something, rotation feels very active and you get a bit of flexibility as you choose how to spend MP on certain abilities depending on how daring you are.
>>343470621
DRK is the alternative to PLD as the main tank role in endgame. While not as good as PLD in Midas, it's still very viable. Going PLD / DRK in one party is gimping yourself though, so if you DRK in endgame be prepared to main tank. You're also doing a lot more buttons than PLD so in my opinion it's more fun than PLD.
>>343471092
>>343471280
Is living dead even worth using by the way? It seems like it can fuck you over.
>>343469701
>I'm hoping I can make it to HW content quickly so I can become a DRK
Make sure to positionthe backs of the mobs face thr group. Lately I've seen too many high level tanks doing it wrong.
>>343471473
Yeah I learned about that in one of the first dungeons I went on. The community is pretty helpful from what I've experienced.
>>343471391
Hallowed > Living > Holmgang
It's easier to time and as a MT will get you more mileage than holmgang, but isn't as stable as Hallowed because if you don't have a benediction up or convalescence up, your healers are forced to focus you up very quickly.
>Library
>as a BRD
>with a BLM
>who doesn't use Fire II, neither Flare or any skill past level 50
>>343471951
I accidentally got into a gubal once as a 60 tank and didn't realize my healer was 59 and tried to do huge pulls.It was a mistake.
>>343471391
>>343471617
It's good for a lot of things, like cheesing stuff and IMO Mting out of Grit and just eating a tankbuster or something.
I don't think it's clearly superior to Holgang though, Holm has the shortest cooldown, that's a pretty huge advantage right there, it also rootsy ou to the spot which is a little utilility as well, Hallowed is OP most of the time but on the whole I think Holm is the best CD.
Has anyone else been 90king A LOT recently?
>>343472891
U wot m8?
>>343473554
getting 90k errors or disconnecting randomly
Is it too late to get into this game?
>>343473739
Not at all.
The levelling experience is almost 100% preserved and you'll be able to find a group for almost all content right now.
>>343472794
In recent memory the only time I've been able to effectively use holmgang and save the day was when I had to "sacrifice" myself for green and yellow d'tats in seph ex. You can use it for vortexer to not get pushed back and other mechanics like that yeah. It's definitely not a useful tank cooldown for trash pulls in dungeons, because it makes you unable to dodge aoes.
>>343468827
>How has Aquapolis fucked your server's economy
No idea, senpai. Might be interesting to see how maps introducing potentially 1.2m gil into circulation when you get a group of 8 to the bottom will change the market.
>tfw got to the bottom 4 times on day 1 with my tank friend and made 29m from all the drops we got
>Now can barely hope to make 500k from a map if you're lucky
reminder to avoid /vg/
>>343474524
You don't need to avoid aoes though, you have Holmgang up, right?
WAR doesn't need Holmgang in Dungeon trash pulls anyway, they have about 1000 ways to deal with pulls, like Raw Intuition, then Awareness, Bloodlust then spamming Overpower in Berserk.
If you absolutely must, go Defiance and use Thrill and Convalescence and then Bloodlust and Overpower.
This is why WAR is so OP.
Started it recently and got lancer up to lvl 50 marauder 26 and pugilist 12 in about half a month, gotta buy heavensward now or I'm wasting exp in the post main story quests.
I have shit tons crafting materials I got from all of ARR in my inventory as well as materia I made from spirit bonded gear, can I use these all in my crafting classes and get rid of them because Im starting to run out of space and also how are the crafting and gathering classes and how do they work?
>>343475854
crafting classes aren't like most mmo's where you just right click on a nude and get a item, in this most of your abilities increase the chance of getting items or increase the chance of getting more,im sure someone here could explain it a lot better than me but thats about all you need to know
>>343475854
Crafting and Gathering are much more involved in XIV than in other themepark mmos. Crafting actually has a large set of abilities you mix and match to increase the quality of an item on top of successfully crafting it. Gathering is all about time of day (Eorzea Time), and has various abilities you can use to increase gathering chance, number of items gathered, and high quality chance. Then there's collectability which was added in HW.
There's too much to explain in one post really.
>>343475854
Well first unlock them all, what you want to do is level every crafting class to lv15 for the cross class skills, this is easy since you can eat food for 3% exp boost, also buy the engineering manuals from your FC, log out in towns for the rest exp boost and you are good to go, unlock the ixal quest for crafters, cratf each item from the list at least once since they give you a good bonus exp for each new item you successfully craft once and make sure you open the timers window and check what your grand company is requesting, the ones with a golden star next to the name are HQ, so you can buy them or make them, they give you a fuck ton of exp, and finally use your leves for trade crafts and either buy them or make them.
>>343476916
Sorry, meant to say, you can buy engineering manuals from your GC, grand company, not your FC
>>343476567
>>343476802
>>343476916
>>343477149
Cheers, hopefully I can use up a lot of the crap I picked up, what should I do with all the materia I made, most of it is I assume low level materia, can it be used to increase any of my levels or should I just try and sell them?
>>343477362
materia isn't really useful til end game and all the 1-50 materia is out of date so i dont think anyone would really buy it,but you could still try
>>343477362
What you can do with low level materia is to meld them into gear you don't want so they spirit bond faster, once the spirit bond is 100% the convert submenu when you right click the item becomes available, this let's you convert the gear into materia, the materia level depends on the gear level
>>343477547
>>343477362
see
>>343477727
With the advent of carbonweave, people are spiritbonding again, so having materia saved up will save you the trouble of buying it to meld with to increase spiritbonding rates. As long as it doesn't become a problem for your inventory space, it's worth holding on to to save a little bit of money.
>>343468827
I made it to level 7 and got a nutkin, baby opopo, Falconer's shirt, thravanian pants and shoes, and 2 unidentified ores.
pretty gud
Aquapolis is the best addition to the game in ages, and I hope Palace of the Dead is even better
>>343478228
I hope that palace of the dead isn't DOA like diadem. I truly hope.
>>343478448
I never did Diadem. I unsubbed like 2 weeks after it came out and only came back for this patch
>>343477907
Sometimes I realise just how lucky I am to have 4 airships constantly gathering me materia. I have 4 full stacks of Craft, cp and Control IV just sitting here. Although I've been selling them recently, made like 10m.
>>343472794
Why isn't it clearly superior to holmgang? You can move afterwards, and it's usable in more locations. A shorter cooldown means nothing since you shouldn't be running into trouble that often unless you're shit at managing cooldowns.
>>343475086
>WAR doesn't need Holmgang in Dungeon trash pulls anyway, they have about 1000 ways to deal with pulls, like Raw Intuition, then Awareness, Bloodlust then spamming Overpower in Berserk.
It allows you to do bigger pulls, and allows the healer to dps a bit more during those larger pulls. So I disagree.
>>343474634
What's wrong with /xivg/? I've never been on it.
>>343479618
What ISN'T wrong with /xivg/? That's what you should be asking.
>>343479618
just fags jerking it to their cats and pretending they are top tier players
lol if this game wasnt a wowclone at first now they are taking the horde and putting it in? you fags should just play WoW
>it's a Vault run with a low level AST healer
>>343479163
Because it has a longer cooldown and will kill the DRK if not healed, a WAR can pop it, and then top himself up with Equilibrium, Second Wind, Storm's Path and Bloodlust, not fully of course but enough to hang on for an otherwise busy healer to heal him.
I think you're really understating the cooldown as well here. You can say 'you shouldn't be getting into much trouble' and I agree, I'm talking from an offensive use here, however you can't really act like MORE defensive uses is a bad thing here.
Holm's only downside is it needs a target.
>>343479339
This is true, but I don't think we have any dungeon pulls that hard at the moment.
>>343479941
>It's a Vault run
Reminder that ZR (Golden Ratio) still exists on Ultros, so if you were interested in playing with /v/ for whatever reason, we're there.Put /v/ in your application, or whisper someone online.
>>343479941
>it's a 'The tank is a PLD' dungeon run
Enjoy contributing nothing to mass pulls, you useless piece of shit.
>>343479941
>its a double AST run
>>343479618
The title of /xivg/ is being held hostage by avatarfags who ERP and discuss how attracted they are to their characters and are treating their general like its /soc/, the could be used to discuss the actual game but they pretty much "own" it. Many MMORPG generals on /vg/ are like this unfortunately, People hate on shit like NeoGAF and Reddit and Tumblr etc but those people on those generals are just as fucking bad if not worse.
so is monk easy
pretty far into savage and i might switch classes

I am so fucking done with this bullshit. This is T9 all over again only this time I have the money to buy a clear, I am so fucking pissed off at how shit the general player base is at this game. There is nothing difficult about Nidhogg EX, he is literally the easiest patch trial we've gotten in the 3.X series and I have to fucking buy a clear because everyone I get in PF with is a fucking drooling retard and clear parties wont take me because I never got an actual kill.

What's the point of even playing
>>343480730
This isn't FFXI. old man
>>343480452
The thing I hate most about Living Dead is how derivative it is, it's just Holmgang with a wanky heal requirement tacked on
>>343480730
There's no point in playing any game with vertical progression if this bothers you.
Do you Americans have ninjas in Aquapolis PF groups?
>>343470470
tanks can level really easily through dungeons though
>>343480702
You just need to lie
Tell a progression group you've cleared it on an alt, then don't fuck up if they invite you
That's how I got my Rav EX kill
>>343470470
Tank are fastest to level. Hell I'm level 55 on my DRK and still in level 120 gear, just doing 50, MSQ roulettes and beast tribe quests
>>343481073
I shouldn't have to though, I should be able to go into a final phase progression group and expect to reach the final phase every time. I shouldn't have to lie to other players about my experience just because 90% of the player base is a bunch of shit eaters that couldn't combo their way out of a happy meal.
>>343481284
are you in a raid group?
you can do it with them
>>343480917
This is true.
>>343480909
I solely do aquapolis with FC mates. If not because pubs have this fucking thing about taking five years to open chests and doors, and refuse to dig up maps until all party members are on site, rather than just in zone.
>it's a pld, brd, nin, ast run
>>343481382
brd do heaps of dps now
>>343481284
It's unfortunate, but the way the PF works, always assume the following:
- Farming groups are actually clear groups
- Clear groups are actually learning groups
- Don't join groups that are labelled as learning groups
>>343481438
nah
>>343481382
why do people hate ninjas again

>>343481465

I'm not

That's depressing, I wanna play on a JP data center
>>343481438
>>343481382
They always did and in a Dungeon a BRD/SMN team was amazing, not the best but still good.
Objectively worst Dungeon party is PLD/NIN/DRG/AST
If you have a WAR or DRK you have NO reason to run a Dungeon as PLD, NONE.
>>343481382
>Hating on AST
Why? I only play AST, so I've never run with another one before. How do most act? I did all of Coil with SCH before switching when 3.0 came out so I already had a good base for healing and DPSing.
Throwing out endless Gravities while popping Balance and Arrow constantly gets me endless commendations

You know their AoE got buffed to fuck in 3.3 right? You do read patch notes, right?

Buffs don't make them magically better at aoe then DRG or BLM or SMN.
If there's one thing I hate about FFXIV it's how easily a bad player can get carried. Just makes me so salty.
New player here
Is it possible to find groups for old content synched? I'd love to run all the old stuff as it was intended. Cheesing it all at level 60 doesn't sound fun at all
>>343481752
What's worse is that if you're actually trying to complete new relic step in a reasonable amount of time, it's best to do expert roulette even if you're already capped for the week. YOSHI LIED PEOPLE DIED
>>343481937
Second coil was the hardest coil in my opinion. T9 was definitely harder to progress on than T13.
>>343481943
I don't think anyone has done the math, but they're hardly bad.
Who the fuck says DRG are good at AoE anyway? They have one good AoE move on GCD and one off, the other... man, if you're spamming Ring of Thorns then just KYS
>>343482028
I spam Ring of Thorns in towns.
>>343481927
I don't even understand why they put mobs into dungeons.
Just do something interesting with it. Anything.
>>343482027
T9 is still one of if not the hardest fights in the game. T9 Savage definitely
>>343481927
>mfw even in 24 man stuff never have to split up and do shit besides the dumb Atomos fights

>>343482095
Do you have any interesting ideas? Any that anons won't shoot down in this very thread?
>>343482028
Heavy Thrust - (Battle Litany/B4) - RoT - BotD - Doom Soike - Gierskogul - Doom Spike - Dragonfire Dive...
>>343482095
to be fair i think the new story dungeon was pretty cool since two of the three bosses wasn't in a circle arena
>>343481852
why would you want that ever
stealth in games that aren't built for it from the ground up is universally horrible
>>343482026
You're gonna have better luck creating such a group within a medium/large FC where you can create an actual static to attempt old content. However sometimes people will purposefully synch old raids, because it affects certain item drops.
>>343482214
Oh I forgot about Geirskogul
granted you won't be getting that off more than once unless you're doing a single target rotation.
>>343482134
There was a dungeon in 1.0, Cutter's Cry I believe (Was a 50 dungeon, 8 man), that had a section where you had to break your party up into two groups of four and head into separate rooms. Then coordinate and complete different objectives -at the same time-, otherwise both rooms would reset and you'd have to try again
1.0 had issues, yeah, but they were a lot more willing to try off the wall shit, which I liked
>>343482171
It's as simple as
>Get the moveable turret to the boss room
One person rides it, everyone defends it as it moves.
>>343482312
Yeah, but a Gierskogul buffed by B4B/BL/IR on a pull of 7 or more isn't anything to sniff at at all, then Dragonfire Dive on all them obs, then Jump/Spineshatter on two other priority targets.
it's boring maybe but strong as fuck if you don't mind the TP cost.
I still think a NIN has to play catch up with that kind of firepower.
>>343482608
people are just gonna fight over whos gonna ride it
mind as well have everyone ride a vehicle :^)
>>343482258
I take it back, they already did it in that one dungeon with the Tonberry.
>>343480702
nid ex is a fucking joke and it took me 3 weeks to pug a clear

>>343482749
>FFXIV version of the Oculus
>>343482620
I would like to do the math sometime I guess, but fuck it for now
>>343482749
But then you could take that into account based on how the rooms and enemy waves are set up.
Or maybe have the class type affect the turret ammo.
Healers being able to shoot healing rounds. Nothing like a bullet to the face for wounds.
>>343482948
It's irrelevant really, since SMN will always be king, in a Dungeon who cares about DRG or NIN, really? 3 bosses vs all those dungeon pulls?
Objectively best Dungeon party.

They surprisingly have opinions I don't think are shit. They too think that alexander's story is garbage and that diadem is a waste of space. Occasionally they say cringy shit or have bad opinions but I don't really hate listening to them.
>>343483967
There's definitely a disconnect between the large group of people that hang out on the mumble and the people that solely type in FC chat. There's not a lot we can do about it except try to encourage people to take part in the mumble, because it's too convenient to give up. We also need it for raids.
>>343483745
>>343483571
I'll try to get a character in ultros and hang around a bit then if you don't mind.
gotta test the waters before shelling out cash.
Are there people there who are interested in doing earlier content or is it all post hw stuff?
God I hope they don't do this scrip and unspoiled node shit again in next xpac. It's a shit system.
speaking of scrips, why is there a weekly cap on red?
>>343484213
i've been kind of wanting to go back to ultros i switched to bamung after a year of playing to play with some friends but while i do seeing a pretty populated server and like not having to deal with gold sellers, i also severely hate a lot of people on balmung too,i remember i told some cat girl to stop advertising erp in shout chat and he/she bombarded me with death threats for a hour

>>343484812
i would leave but i've made a bunch of friends on balmung since i moved over and as far as i can tell just about all of my friends over on ultros quit playing
>>343484907
pretty sure you can get a space if you try during 2am~4am pst
>>343484706
Honestly with all the free money generated this patch and aquapolis tanking mat prices, ironworks HQ gear is easier and faster to get and it's better when you meld it. I'm still augmenting a BSM in case there's more progression in the future but it's not really necessary.
>>343484798
>he thinks female characters are actually female
dude like 90% of every character in this game is a cute catslut
>>343485054
which makes the red scrip cap even more pointless
>>343484907
a lot of people have a bad habit of using the pf for shit that has nothing to do with parties,trading or guild recruitment
i mean stuff like "i just got a fat cat XD" kind of shit
also some of the role players their are the most crazy people i've ever seen,hell i remember one person made a fan club dedicated to herself

Ok fucking why people are shitting on AST in dungeons run in this thread right now.
With AST you can do crazy dps. You do your ultimate healing combo on the tank (Helios 2, Regen, Bubble regen, pop a strong defense card on him, pop mana regen on yourself, use both of your duration extend cd) and then proceed to spam literally infinite gravity.

They healer only needs to heal the total amount of hp the drk has, a healer should heal at least 35% of the tanks hp without cooldowns.
I really don't see the problem here, maybe 2 or 3 heals at most to do it

That being said I know I'm not getting the cream of the drop at 1 AM but still.

It's still shit and doesn't need to be in the game. There are other ways you could limit that if you wanted to. Time gating is the laziest, most frustrating way to handle these things.

I'm pretty sure Ninja is a decent DPS class. Especially with all the neat tools they get
>>343486569
Lighting, that's all I can see.

ninja is fine. they even fixed the lag gate. as a plus, you get priority on using the limit break so enjoy your Chimatsuri

Like all the MMO generals it's infested by avatarfags, unlike wowg which is bad but the avatarfags get shut down at least, ffxivg is owned by the faggots, they run the FC's and shit,a nd talk openly about their exploits and run the general into the ground. The subreddit is fucking awful too, i went there out of desperation when i first started the game, the only place to discuss the game I've found is these rare /v/ threads, everything else is genuinely awful.

Or good as in play in your continent good?

i thin 50-70 maybe less
>>343487964
they fixed the mudra lag. most the people in this thread haven't played in a long time
>>343487012
why do ninjas get priority on dps limits again?
>>343488130
they improved it but to play optimally you still need VERY low latency
>>343488224
because they don't have harsh combos like dragoons, or stacks to keep up like monks
>>343488284
Mudfish is pretty good I hear.

If it does it NEEDS to have it's own version of Storm's Eye and Storm's Path, and not stacking with those either or SAM/WAR will be used forever.

So the endgame here is once I finish gearing up I just jew everyone else as THEY gear up, right?
>>343490724
Stat differences are so miniscule it doesn't matter. Roegadyn can be a caster just as well as any other race.
Lore question, why are there some humans in the game who are giant? I just finished doing the Iceheart stuff and there's a female knight who's as tall as the elves but has human ears.
>>343491372
They messed around in character creation and came out a giantess
can species in ff14 crossbreed?
I mean they're all kinda humans
>>343491467
Yes, it's canon. The offspring come out as the mother's race with slight characteristics of the father's.

Can human species bread with beastmen?
>>343491935
Ask Y'shtola. She spends plenty of time "helping" beast men.
>>343491372
She's Ubermensch
Anyone thats clearly human but noticeably taller and more handsome/beautiful is Garlean.
I'd spoiler this but it's pretty inconsequential.

i always ship her and Merlwyb in a owner/pet relationship. yshtola got a nice red bottom for her remarks about the sahagin and limsa breaking the treaty

whats worng with PLDs, they are the best at you know, tanking, well the run might go a little bit slower because of the low DPS but still, I dont gett all the shit PLDs get man.

Low quality shitposting this may be, but a PLD in a dungeon is nothing but a ball and chain, they have no fucking aoe besides lolscorn and in single target the other two tanks still do more damage.

Ozma is in FFXIV too.

It's actually worked into the lore, no attempt to link the XIV and IX universe, but we know Ozma has been used to devour whole cities, the alternate dimension he sucks you into has some of Nym in it, the place where the citizens turned into Tonberries come from.

Pretty cool that PLD is the usual MT, WAR the usual OT and DRK can beb oth depening on the co tank, if you want to learn both sides of the tanking coin, roll DRK.
>All these WAR mains and DPS babbies getting angry that SAM is going to be a tank
>DRK
>fun
just because you press more buttons doesn't make it fun. DRK should have been a DPS class
>>343496295
Why would SAM go tank? Why not DPS? Blue Mage when?
>Recycle enemies
>Still keep the the language from a completely different universe on them
COMPILE HEART MAKING FINAL FANTASY GAMES
>>343496353
Same reason they made DRK tank.
>Tank least played role.
>Add highly requested job as that role.
Worked for a bit but once a lot of people realized they were gonna have to tank they went back to DRG.
>>343496295
I'm honestly mad since that would me 3 fucking tanks using swords. Where's my god damn sword wielding DPS class Yoshi?
>>343496353
>Blue Mage when?
Never hopefully.
>>343495472
and why the fuck would a tank need a fucking aoe you gigantic dumb fuck, you already have DPSs for that kind of shit, the job of a tank is to pull and hold aggro, not doing aoes
>>343496295
Why would we be angry about getting another co tank?
>>343468827
>implying
Aquapolis is good for the economy. Having an abundance of crafting mats that are reasonably priced helps everyone.
Unless you're one of those megajews that tries to manipulate and inflate costs on the marketboard, in which case you can fuck right off.
>>343496353
Blue Mage wouldn't work in XIV. Even if you gave it special mechanics which allowed it to learn spells from enemies, by endgame you'd have all your spells and you'd just be like any other class.
>>343496613
Probably since WAR and DRK have a spamable enmity generating AoE
>inb4 flash
>>343496330
drk was a tank in the other games why would it be different here
Red Mage for cloth wearing tank
>>343496613
Again, bait this may be but there are actually people out there that think a Tank doesn't need to do any dps, which is why this game has a trash ass playerbase. enjoy your literal dungeon crawling, morons.
>>343496808
Overpower and Abyssal Drain both do damage as well as draw aggro, a PLD spamming Flash is doing absolutely fuck all. Worse still, PLD has no amazing single target damage to offset this, it's still below DRK/WAR in that field.
>>343496969
>sacrifice own HP to deal more damage
>tank
>>343496969
DRK has always been a heavy-hitter class.
>>343496976
I want RDM to be a hybrid melee/spell dps that switches between melee combos and nuking with spells.
>>343496992
but they excell in damage mitigation, the main fucking thing that a tank should do, not DPS, also I main a PLD and i NEVER EVER had any problem with generating enmity and holding aggro, flash and circle of scorn are more than enough.
>>343496992
fucking dumb fuck, the DPS class exist for a reason, lazy ass motherfuckers, not only you need someone to get the hits AND position the enemy so your sorry ass can attack, but you also need other people to help you do your fucking job?, fuck off a tank should tank, and thats it.
>>343496093
I hate that 95% of fish in the game are useless, they have no recipes that use them. Only thing they are good for is turn-ins and leveling CUL desynth.
Worst part though is that you can't target specific fish. You have to just hope you get what you want as RNG rams its barbed cock up your anus. How to fix fishing:
- Make it so each fish only responds to a certain type of bait (or is at least massively predisposed to a certain type, like 90-95%)
- Make it so no two fish which like the same bait appear in the same fishing hole at the same time (or allow for two, but make it so one responds to snagging and the other one doesn't)
- In the fish guide, list the bait each fish responds to (after you've caught it), as well as any time/weather conditions necessary for catching it.
- Mooching can still exist, just make it so only one type of mooched fish in each fishing hole responds to a particular mooch bait (or again two, one with and without snagging).
- Remove the need for the mooching bait to be freshly caught. Let people mooch with fish they acquired earlier by applying them as bait.
>>343496093
