Scholar is the best class in the game, no contest. Everyone else needs to step down
>>344326676
Please don't use my favorite class to bait.
>>344326676
Nobody argues against that
Shit game, shit thread.
>>344326676
Sch is so much fun, it's a fun class. But people are idiots, I feel that I am so much more in control with Whm, so I don't dare to make the change. But man, Sch are really fun
>>344326676
read the title as XVI and thought this was going to be a thread to discuss the porn game
SCHOOL IS IN SESSION
>>344326676
scholar is the class for virgins who unironically like cuck porn
muh dps as a healer sets me apart from everyone else, i'm doing something so hard h-haha, please recognize this as an achievement since i have no other achievements in lifei main sch and am projecting

>>344327523
>melee dps
try blm for maybe 10 minutes
>>344327523
Sorry dude, I'm a monk main but have everything leveled to 60 as well
Monk isn't the hardest anymore, even DRGs have more to manage these days
>>344327523
MNK is easy as fuck.
>>344327523
>monk thinking their shit is hard
Nigga I main monk because it's so easy. I have no idea how some retards can still manage under 1K DPS as a monk.
SCH is for people for whom AST was too hard
Haven't played this since Alex came out.
Should I resub or is there nothing to do? I kind of hit a lull where I was waiting around for raid time and not doing much else.
Is there actually shit to do now and keep yourself occupied? Or is it the same grind with doing your relic weapon?
>>344327280
This image makes me sad, There was no real reason to take Thunder away from SCHs.
>>344327871
Id wait until the next midas patch, i subbed for jjune and it was the same shit you were doing during the first void ark patch
>>344327993
WHM had Thunder too as did SMN and they gave us Blizzard II instead for some stupid as fuck reason
ujnnnnnghnb those fucking thighhs hnunUNGGGGH
>>344327871
Nothing else to do besides a daily grind.
Gathering don't matter. It's not enjoyable anyway. The only reason people do it is because they can do something else that's actually enjoyable while gathering.
Crafting don't matter unless you want gil, or to be self-sustained every 4 patches when they release some semi relevant progression gear.
It's literally all glamour and tomestones, same as before.
>>344327984
Please stop.
>been maining DRG for around 2 months
>rotation has been screwed up here and there but I'm constantly getting better
>finally get ACT
>realize I've been routinely doing 300-500 more DPS than the rest of the group
Does no one in this game give a fuck?
>>344328197
WHM had it too? I was aware of SMN, but didn't know about the former. It really was a shitty switch, especially for SMN and SCH
>>344328197
Uhh....AoE?
You realize Blizzard 2 is what you use when you are aoeing as a sch or smn right?
>>344327871
I quit recently after doing Savage Alex for the first time and finding it boring
I'm interested in 3.35 and Palace of the Dead though, maybe look into that
>>344327993
>There was no real reason to take Thunder away from SCHs.
it gave them more dps than SMN
>>344327984
Good art wasted on a shitty fetish
>>344328461
Nigga of course no one gives a fuck.
>>344328481
No it wasn't it just added another fucking dot to refresh and lower dps.
Blizzard 2 made it so sch and smn could actually aoe.
Why is /v/ so retarded when it comes to this game?
>>344328680
>>344328496
>blizzard II
>actually aoe
SMN and SCH don't even need that trash with Bane, Shadow Flare, and Miasma II.
Even BLM doesn't want to use Blizzard II as AoE, that's how shit it is.
>>344328416
What's the problem anon?
I'd probably play this game if it was free.
Impressed they manage to make a monthly subscription work in the current year though, I thought only WoW had fans that desperate.
>>344328937
Take this degenerate shit back to /xivg/
the real reason they made blizzard II cross class over thunder is so other classes had an aoe bind for pvp
>>344329073
I would leave the game fast as shit if it became F2P and all the poors swarmed in.
>>344328884
I thought miasma 2 was unanimously shit?
>>344329181
Last time I played the game was unbearable due to console poors anyway.
What difference would it make. You'll need a team of reliable friends if you want to get shit done one way or the other.
>>344329192
On single target no one uses it. Just meant for AoE.
>>344329282
>need a team of reliable friends
Have you never played the game? It's 95% a solo experience.
>>344328884
>mfw this moron is playing my class
go play another class please
>>344329423
I was talking about the raids, obviously.
> It's 95% a solo experience.
So explain to me again how you think poor players will negatively impact it?
>>344328884
Are you ACTUALLY this retarded?
Is the meme that people dont read tooltips actually true?
>>344328884
Except Blizzard II is a damage increase over Broil on pulls of 4 or more mobs you dingleberry.
>>344329102
scholars having 5 dots was overkill. i honestly think they shouldn't have Aero either.
i'm actually against crossclassing as it functions right now. all you do now is take necessary cooldowns that are just static increases in dps, or Provoke and Swiftcast. doesn't add depth to the combat and being forced to take arcanist, lancer, archer, conjurer, gladiator and thaumaturge to certain levels no matter what is not fun
>>344326676
>doesn't even know the difference between class and job
What a scholar
>>344328592
Did it? It couldn't have been that much. But I guess this would be the case as SCH would have both Thunder and Aero, but SMN only had Thunder?
>>344329595
Queue times
More trolling
Likely more reliance on cash-shop sales (though they have plenty of retard whales buying a fantasia every 2 days from what I've seen)
More retarded shit in shout chat
But the real reason is so retards who just subscribe every 3 months to do the latest shit and then sit around for 2 weeks to complain will be gone for a couple of months, at least, instead of being able to log on every single day and complain about having nothing to do.
>>344329972
Agreed. Crossclassing feels like shit.
why can't i do this?
>>344330116
SMN didn't have thunder either
>>344330249
You aren't arguing against poor players.
You are arguing against players.
You're telling me you enjoy a dead server.
That's fine but it has nothing to do with the payment.
>>344330315
Are you trying to use an NPC melder? They can't overmeld.
>>344330315
are you trying to overmeld with the melding npc?
you can onyl overmeld as a crafter or have someone overmeld for you
but hten how did the 2. materia get on there?
>>344330315
you can do it, you just won't get the full benefit of the materia because the secondary stat is capped
you should use lower grade materia unless you plan on overmelding
>>344330315
You cannot overmeld primary stats, only secondary stats.
I figured out the hard way too. Shit sucks.
>>344330432
pretty sure he means the playerbase F2P brings in is fucking horrible
the game not being F2P keeps brazilians and other shitters away
>>344330432
Do you have overmelding unlocked?
>>344330315
Piety is a 'main' stat and can't be overmelded. You would put Piety in first, then the quicktongues
>>344330481
>>344330519
i'm doing it myself
>>344330557
it literally won't let me click meld
>>344330627
>>344330708
fuck this game
Reminder that DRK caused every tank problem. Completely rework DRK.
>>344330432
The server is never dead even when people are unsubbed after doing the latest content. It just keeps them from logging on and using it as a chatroom for that time.
And yes I still want to keep poor players out.
>>344327280
how do I flowchart
>>344330790
They just didn't want people doing this anymore.
>>344330635
>the playerbase F2P brings in is fucking horrible
I see this argument all the time and having played both kinds of MMOs I've never seen substantial evidence that shows a paywall increases the quality of players.
It's more of a pick your poison situation. Do you want children and Brazilians or autistic NEETs and mentally unstable middle aged housewives? Both pools have good and bad players.
>>344327396
>It's a I want to browse facebook only shitter
>>344330356
That's a weird thing to leave out all things considered.
Should I just resub to FFXI instead?
>>344330790

>>344330959
I'd rather have the NEETs and unstable middle aged housewives.
>>344331109
The worst I saw was when a WHM had a macro for Cure. You can imagine how annoying that got.
>They haven't added a single way to level since ARR
Fuck this stupid game.
>>344330790
Don't worry anon, there is a goblin NPC just outside of Black Brush Station who can remove your materia for a small fee :^)
Of course, you are forced to remove any and all materia affixed to your equipment. You can't choose any single materia, you gotta start from scratch! Oh, and the materia you remove is scrapped! Have fun spending more gil!Yeah seriously, fuck this game.
>>344331382
they've added several, and they are adding yet another in less than 2 weeks
>BLM, WHM, SMN/SCH, AST, DRK all at 60

fug
I only did it for the Grandmaster of Magic title anyway but still.
Valerian Wizard set pretty fucking neato too.
>>344330949
is the BLM piety meld thing a meme?
>>344331547
There's several ways to level beyond FATEs or dungeons?
>>344331786
It has merit. Lets you start with sharp+f1 and get all 6 raging fire4s.
I'm not sure it's worth giving up 1000+ spell speed though.
>>344331398
If people could remove a single materia and have it still be used, the materia market would be even more garbage than it already is.
>>344331817
Beast tribes once you reach 40, for one.
>>344332010
Fair enough.
What else?
>>344331817
Challenge Log, roulette bonuses, Leves
>>344331907
i've got the necessary 1100 sps and 600 accuracy
i was just thinking about melding 3 extra piety to hit 264 because i'm not a dunesfolk and i dont wanna eat food just to practice 6 fire 4s. also i may not always get a sch/ast in dungeons. do you think it's worth sacrificing one crit meld for this? provided i even want to penta the neck?
>>344332151
Challenge log maybe, but roulette bonuses are still dungeons.
>>344332176
If you're at 1100 spell speed do whatever the fuck you want as long as it doesn't drop.
>>344331946
It wouldn't be that much different honestly. Grade 4's and 5's still command decent prices, and with overmelding, there will be no shortage of demand for materia.
I just think it sucks because if you want to tweak a pentamelded piece, you have to remove all materia and spend an assload of gil to pentameld it once again.
>>344331817
other than those things, can do trial/guildhest roulettes, CT saga raids, and soon deep dungeons
but what else do you want to do for leveling? masturbate in town?
>>344332176
Just use a Keeper's Hymn.
>>344332176
why not use a keepers hymn?
>>344332397
Not that guy but I'd like some more dungeons at low level, for one. Having a single dungeon to jump that 47-50 gap after the game has been out for so long is pretty painful.
>>344332417
>>344332428
3 int is more potent than 9 crit
>this entire thread is one giant shitpost in response to the AST vs SCH thread yesterday in which all SCHfags were btfo with simple math
>Furiously tried to deny that their class is OP and getting nerfed
POST YFW SCH NERFS IN 3.4
>>344330959
I would much rather deal with the latter than little kids and brazilians
>>344332347
I have my doubts that people never having to buy new materia as long as they previously slotted their gear with grade Vs wouldn't have an impact on prices.
>>344332428
>>344332417
3 INT is worth more than the Crit IV i'd replace the piety with, so no.
>>344332692
It also means you're not spending even more gil trying to meld. You're not going to notice any DPS loss from 3 INT.
>>344332678
That's what they said would happen in 3.3
>>344332397
Stuff that nobody does anymore.
>>344332846
grade iv is cheap and im an 3omnicrafter
lol i have more money than i know what to do with
>>344332678
>more SCH nerds that do nothing because the job is broken fundamentally
Maybe if they add a good off healer in 4.0 SCH won't be god tier but I doubt it
>>344332932
people run CT shit fairly regularly because it's needed for relic upgrades
>>344333017
I pay people to have fistfights on the street of Ul'dah.
>>344332689
Having a specific materia be destroyed would be fine by me.
But destroying all 5 materia when you really only want to adjust one is retarded.
>>344333121
what server? i'll come watch
>>344332678
Nobody is going to fall for your bait
Some say the game is shit, some say the game is good. But is the game a good timewaster?
>>344333442
if you're a brand new player you'll never really run out of shit to do for over a year
>>344333442
definitely
>>344333442
It depends on what you're looking for, if you have friends who will play it too, and if you're okay with half the game being solo based.
>>344333442
Absolutely. Tons of shit to do, even if endgame is crap once you're there for more than one patch in a row.
>>344333552
>>344333576
>>344333578
That sounds good to me. My friends don't play MMOs so I'll be by myself.
>>344333643
come to gilga and i'll play with you family
>Try to level from 1-50 with a friend
>Constantly have to be on the same quest

>Couldn't even queue for a daily together at the time
Is this the worst MMO to play with friends ever?
>>344333742
It's the worst MMO, period.
>>344333718
Maybe, I'm from EU so I don't know how bad the lag will be.
>>344327280
>Switch to smn for solo
Objectively wrong.
SCH is invincible in solo play, can ignore debuffs, and kills mobs just as fast.
>>344333962
it shouldn't be too bad but you may notice a bit
>>344332874
What? Nobody said that because the interview with Yoshi P only happened a little before patch 3.3 hit.
Everyone knows that if they're going to make any major adjustments it's going to come in 3.4 or 4.0 because that's when the new raid cycle hits.
>>344334126
>SCH kills mobs just as fast
lol
This is my first ever healing class in about 10 years of MMOs, and I have to say I'm having a good time. I want to rape my fairy, though.
I'm going to be transferring to Balmung soon, because my server is very low population. What can I expect when I get there?
>>344334598
>>What can I expect when I get there?
Lots of people so the game feels alive.
>>344327523
Monk is really easy though. Ninja is slightly harder. Dragoon even harder. Machinist is harder, then comes Black Mage, the hardest dps. I don't know summoner (only class I didn't play).
>>344334131
Alright I'm downloading the game. What's your character name?

>>344328884
>not using Blizzard II
Adding to the collective kys
>>344335175
It's been superior to BRD since 3.2. 3.3 brought BRD back in line though.
>>344335175
Machinist has been playable since 3.2
Unless you mean having no casttimes in which case get good, scrub
>>344332678
The fairy take 2.5 to cast anything, she's stronger than regen but doesn't heal as often and if a dps get hit she stops healing the tank.
Whm/ast have it so much easier and still complain.
Ever since I got Ruin II that's all I use, is that bad?
>>344335382
waste of mana unless you're moving
>>344335240
yeah no that part checks out but in what world is BLM harder than any of the melee classes? or MCH either?
>>344334663
>>344334598
I'm going to gilga or balmung but I can't decide because there's no way to just make a trial character on them
they're literally always closed, and I missed the two minute period balmung was open during a server crash
>>344335456
Its good if you need to suddenly dodge an aoe, where if you were casting ruin you would have had to interrupt it
>MCH
>hard
I just killed A8S dummy in 226 gear and I'm garbage at this game. Are you all gamepad users?
>>344335371
>But doesn't heal as often
Nigger are you retarded or what
She takes 2.5 seconds to cast but Regen only ticks every 3 seconds. All regens in this game tick every three seconds; maybe slightly more if you stack SS. And besides that, you can micromanage her every cast.
Don't be fucking stupid.
She heals more than Regen, does it faster, costs no MP, can be buffed at will, costs no GCD and has a plethora of other tools.
SCH is literally overpowered easy mode and you guys will still try to find autistic ways of complaining that you don't have it easy enough
>>344335639
>Dummy
Now try the real a8s
>>344335124
I actually prefer the smaller servers, but nobody on my server is really serious about raid content
I just want to know what I can expect in terms of login queue time, and how many of those stories about people sucking futa cat dick in public chat channels are really true
>>344335639
>i killed a dummy
wow youre so skillful
>>344335528
Gilgamesh is smaller than Balmung but has more top-tier raiders.
Balmung is bigger than Gilgamesh but has less top-tier raiders.
>>344334398
Maybe if you're a bad Scholar, but in solo encounters shit melts like butter before a summoner can even get through a full rotation, and in longer encounters survivability is more important.
Scholar is the best solo job in the game, rivaled by maybe a warriors health pool being able to let them survive shit like soloing extreme Prima's with lower gear requirements. But a summoner comes no where close to either.
>>344335632
>waste of mana unless you're moving
>>344335639
no job in this game is hard
there is the "relatively hardest" tho
SHE DOESN'T KNOW A FUCKING THING ABOUT MEGAMAN!
>>344335737
A lot of those stories are true but none of those stories are frequent.
>>344335748
>Sch
>Best solo job
That's either WHM or WAR. Sch is hot garbage for solo play thanks to low DPS.
>>344335474
Dummy dps BLM isn't hard. But BLM have the hardest job of them all to optimize every fight. There is a reason why there is so much disparity among black mage at same ilvl. The difference between an optimized BLM and an unoptimized BLM is astonishing.
>>344335726
>>344335740
I raid on a different job, but nice bait.
All I'm saying, the rotation isn't hard.
I resubbed after a year of not playing. Should I just make a new char or play on my old lvl 50 whitemage that I completely forgot how to play, and I kinda also have no idea whats going on in the story.
>>344335639
The only people who thing MCH is hard are BRD players.
>>344335674
Her cast time is 2.5s but her recast time is 3s so she doesn't heal faster than Regen. Fairy heal potency is also weaker than player heal potency, so even though Embrace says 300 potency it's actually closer to 200 potency from a player (half a Cure/Physick/Benific) and only 33% stronger than a Regen tick.

EDOBEAN DOESN'T KNOW A FUCKING THING ABOUT MEGAMAN!
WHY THE FUCK IS SHE THERE!
Ive been wanting to level up Bard or MCH for when i dont feel like tanking but i cant decide which one to go with. Im not planning on doing top tier content with it but im wondering what the pros and cons for the classes are vs each other?
Just kind of looking for a change of pace from WAR.
What is the best song in the game? If you answered anything butNidhogg's theme, you're wrong, by the way.
>>344336057
>That's either WHM
lel, no.
SCHfaggots love stroking their own egos but the only two classes in this game that can solo anything are SCH and WAR because they're hilariously OP.
WHM can't solo anything in this class because it has the weakest MP management out of all three healers and goes OOM if you start DPSing. Stone III costs a shit ton of MP and if you start spamming it like you should for maximum DPS potential it kills your MP reserves.
SCH can solo because it has amazing MP regen and a fairy to heal you every 2s. It's DPS tools aren't that MP heavy and it has the most sustainable DPS.
WAR can also solo things because of its regen tools and because it has great defensive cooldowns and an offensive toolkit.
Don't meme about shit you don't know. There's a reason why SCH and WAR have solo'd most old EX content and no other class has.
>>344335968
>>344336414
lel wat
>>344335747
I'm probably not going to get with a top tier raiding group since I'm literally just getting started with it, but its not the only thing I'm interested in. I just wish I could check out the communities for myself instead of memes about servers.
>>344327432
you had a retarded scholar since they can literally place the pet anywhere, and move it around as needed
>>344336539
he probably misposted in the GDQ thread, as there's a worthless female on the couch
>>344336446
BRD is more about keeping up dots and doing sustained damage, MCH is about burst and cooldown alignment. They both play similarly, but with BRD you have to know your dot timer and with MCH you have to watch RNG procs on your main combo.
>>344336297
I didn't say a single thing about Embrace's potency, I know it's stronger than Regen, that's why I pointed it out in my prior post. I also made this case yesterday.
Also, her cast time isn't 2.5s, it's 2s.
Embrace is 200 Player Potency, making it stronger than Regen at no MP cost, no GCD cost, easier uptime and the ability to shit it out to whomever you please.
This is why SCH is OP and piss easy to play in content. Because the fairy and DT make it broken as shit.
>>344336389
In what world does a SCH parse more than a WHM? For raid content? Sure since accuracy and MP management matter for that shit.
But in solo content burst single-target and AoE is much higher than a SCH could manage.
>>344336493
Nigga you can't tell me a SCH's sub-par DPS is better than a WHM's balls-out Stone III or Holy/Aero III/Assize spam when it comes to solo shit.
Sure if we want to go to EX/content that's meant to be done with a group, you're simply going to run out of mana and your WHM DPS becomes 0 and you die like a bitch, but who the fuck would do group content solo?
>>344336452
Answers.
>>344336935
not him but
"oh you mean it parses more where it actually matters? Yeah no shit, but in faceroll content that doesnt matter WHM does better!" that is you right now. That is what you are saying.
>>344336935
>but who the fuck would do group content solo?
WARs and SCHs.
I want catgirls more like the catgirls in Bless. They aren't muscular enough in XIV for my tastes and this is coming from somebody who mainly plays a catgirl.
>>344337061
Yes, faceroll solo content, where this fucker was talking about "It's the best solo class in the game". Nobody was talking shit about stuff that actually matters.
>>344337067
That's stupid.
>>344336935
If you want to talk about actual babby solo content, why are you even considering a healer? All the DPS jobs have no trouble surviving that stuff and do way more DPS.
>>344327217
What's XVI?
>>344336935
I am telling you that because it's the truth.
SCH in THEORY has the worst DPS POTENTIAL, yes, Stone, Sky, Sea tells us that.
The POTENTIAL for DPS is WHM > AST > SCH.
However, in PRACTICE (i.e. real life situations and play) SCH will always come out on top of WHM because WHM can't keep up its DPS.
It doesn't matter if WHM can burst 1000 DPS at the beginning while SCH can only do 900; what matters is that SCH can continually do 900 DPS all fight long while WHM drops off incredibly quickly because it can't sustain it.
If they made WHMs MP regen not suck shit, then yeah, WHM would be DPSing a lot more in raid content.
And what "solo shit" are you talking about? 99% of this game is group content. Even if there was "solo content" to speak of, SCH would still come on top because it can maintain its DPS.
The ONLY time WHM jumps ahead of SCH in terms of DPS is when it comes to AoE DPS in dungeons, because SCH takes fucking forever to set up its AoE damage where as a WHM you can shit out Aero III/Assize/Holy in an instant and kill everything.
WHM has the best burst DPS but it doesn't matter because overall WHM has awful MP sustain.
>>344336935
>but who the fuck would do group content solo?
It's amazing how many people don't know about the unsynced feature
>>344335528
I dont raid or anything yet since im lvl 53, but I would say Balmung if you are gonna pay for the transfer, plenty of people there, Gilgamesh feels kinda of dead to me, I played for an entire month there and I never talked with anyone there even when I tried to start a conversation. The game in general still feels like a solo mmo though, but at least people are friendly here, I dont RP or ERP btw.
>>344335124
Blame SE for having so many useless servers, whats the point of having 7-9 worlds per data center when most of those servers dont even get more than 500 players at the same time, also of course everyone prefers to play with people, are you stupid? They wouldnt be playing an MMO otherwise, whats the point of having cool shit when your server has literally 5 people connected at any given time. Might as well play single player game.
>>344337292
SCH does good damage, have a shield so they don't get hurt and in the event they do get hurt their own personal heal slut. It's far easier to solo content with than then whm
>>344335769
>there is the "relatively hardest" tho
which is?
>>344337479
BLM or DRG. Relatively easiest would be all 3 tanks + MNK.
>>344337472
>also of course everyone prefers to play with people
And then they'll bitch about houses costing so much.
I loved this game so much until around December when it became clear that it would always erase everything and make old content 99% useless.
Taken down to 2 dungeons to spam, craftable gear still mostly worthless, relic-type weapons getting a reset (oh excuse me you can skip ONE STAGE at next expansions), and content that is either balls hard or insultingly drooling easy, never in between.
I am pretty much waiting for the next expansion so I can just enjoy playing through that and doing a little content again, until then FFXI is keeping me far more entertained. Does anyone know if there have been hints for the next expansion after heavensward yet? I'd love to hear if so.
>>344337825
It's likely going to involve ala migho and garlemald.
>>344337825
They'll announce 4.0 at the fanfest in October.
>>344337458
Holy fucking shit I already fucking agreed with you that in raid content and non-solo stuff SCH will win in DPS output and yet you still wrote this out.
Do you know what solo content is? it's stuff designed for a single player. Beast tribe dailies, quests, hunts.
For fucks sakes, man.
Should I just buy Heavensward right now even though I'm only starting out?
All you faggots are making SCH look bad, I'm going to main asrto now
>>344338059
see if you like the game first
you have a ways to go before ANY HW content
>>344337934
>>344337976
Then you're making unimpressive and irrelevant claims like a retard. All of that content is irrelevant. When people refer to "soloing" shit they mean actually impressive shit, like soloing Titan EX as a SCH.
Nobody gives two shits about you doing baby bitch content, nigger. Fuck off.
>>344338135
enjoy never getting into groups b/c no one wants astro
Ok I just finished the main story mode and hit lv50. What should I do now?
>Continue the main story
>Get other job
>Start with the economy-based classes
What should I concentrate on doing?
>>344337825
>Just made myself ironworks GSM mainhand/offhand tools
>Nothing to really craft
Well... I can always hope the next patch will require autism levels of craftmanship/control.
>>344337934
>>344337969
Considering the more "ethnic" expansions we've had in both games
>Aht Urhgan being east-indian as fuck
>Ishgard being ice-camelot as fuck
I'll hope then that Ala Mihgo is ALADDIN AS FUCK
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIYL-PQa010
>>344338319
continue story, unlock HW
then focus on other jobs
do crafts/gathering stuff on the side whenever you're fucktired of MSQ
>>344338298
>All of that content is irrelevant
Oh yeah, unlike soling Titan EX. That's completely relevant there. Sure is better than just plowing through it in a group. Can't actually do that for beast tribe shit though.
Fucking retards.
>>344338365
they dropped the ball with crafting/gathering in 3.0+. it's shit and i don't like it.
>>344338536
>waaaah nobody finds me using WHM on piss easy content impressive
Kill yourself, familia
>>344338059
If you like the look of the Au Ra race then sure.
If you're choosing a server and want to play with /v/ for some reason, ZR still exists on Ultros. (Golden Ratio)
Put "/v/" in your application or whisper someone online for an invite.Everyone thinks I'm Stroll.
>>344338318
>>344338135
But that's false, SCH/AST it's fine
It's only a joke if you run WHM/ASTLike I had to and it was fucking awful.
>Wants to PvP
>Tries the first option and only one I have available
>Q-time is over 30 minutes
>Waited over 90 minutes and nothing
Nobody plays PvP in FXIV anymore? Did I miss out?
>>344338780
GAF'D
>>344338667
I'm still laughing that you discount leveling/solo content as irrelevant when there's barely anyone autistic enough to even think of bothering with soloing a primal that was irrelevant a year ago.
SAM is next DPS class right? That's the only way I'd come back to this game
>>344338780
Blaster, make me stuffs.
>>344338901
Are you queuing for Fold? Nobody does that. It's a basic arena mode that died 2 years ago. Only active PVP right now are Seal Rock, Fields of Glory (both battlegrounds) and The Feast (although the latter has kinda died down). But expect long queue times anyway, this game isn't for PVP.
>>344338780
>advertising a 4chan guild with HILARIOUS meme images with a meme glamour
Thanks for providing us enough info to avoid playing with you memespewers
>>344339019
>SAM
>DPS
Hahaha, no. They talked about choosing between SAM and DRK for the 3.0 tank which implies SAM would've been a tank if it was implemented.
>>344339019
Samurai will be a tank, Dancer will be a heal and Red Mage will be a dps. Calling it.
>Know that FFXIV is mediocre as fuck, it's not shit but it's not good
>Still have fun
I don't know how it's possible.
Is AST bad? I didn't play them much when the expansion first came out, but I hear they got a buff. They worth leveling?
>>344339251
>>344339259
>Another 2H Class that isn't DPS
Welp, fuck that then.
>>344339259
>Dancer
any indication of dancer actually being in or just wishful thinking?
>>344339312
AST was dogshit on release but they've been buffed in literally every patch since then so they're okay now.
They still need a few tweaks to make them perfect, but they're perfectly capable of replacing a WHM. They just suck shit at replacing SCH.
And that's for savage content. If you're not raiding they're more than capable for literally everything in this game.
>>344339565
Fanfiction. They've said they're not making 3 jobs for one expansion again.
>>344339689
Source on that?
>>344339775
Any interviews around Heavensward release. I'm not looking for a particular one, just take my word on it. 3 new jobs isn't happening.
>>344339312
They been buffed so fucking much and theyre still shit, if you're lucky you can go in place of a WHM in some groups, but SCH is pretty much mandatory of your in a serious group
>>344339689
>not adding a single class/job as part of a patch anymore
>not adding 3 jobs on expansions anymore
Lazy niggers
Anyone have one of these for MCH?

>when you've done weeping city 6 times this week and gear you want hasn't dropped
should have just greeded those tank pants
>>344339927
They said Heavensward was the first expansion so they wanted to add a lot of things but having to balance 3 whole new jobs ended up being more of an issue than anything.
>RMG, BeMG, TMG, and SGE will never be added into the game
Why life?
>>344339775
They said it when they released info around Fanfest 2014.
They said that putting out three jobs at once for the development team was a nightmare and that "they'd never want to do it again."
how do you fuckers even do shit at max level crafting? I can barely get the progress close to completion before running out of durability/cp.
>>344340449
Cross-class abilities, duh
>>344340449
Usually Maker's Mark, then a few Careful synths
>>344340629
Explain yourself
>>344339996
Just hit all the buttons on your keyboard and you'll be ok as MCH.
>>344340689
As long as Wildfire is up, right?
Will Palace of the Dead give class exp? I'm sick of doing regular dungeons to level up.
>>344327396
That applies to WAR too
>>344340449
Crafting is fucking stupid in this game. You can't focus on one, you HAVE to level culinarian, leatherworker,etc
>>344341067
>They add specialization to try and remove this requirement
>Every single skill is absolutely useless
Hahahahaha
>>344334995
whatever one you think looks the best
the ilevel will only be relevant for 3 more months
>>344341067
Partially true. You just need to level them enough to unlock their useful cross-class ability.
Kinda just like combat classes.
>>344340973
Yessir.
>>344336251
>I resubbed after a year of not playing. Should I just make a new char or play on my old lvl 50 whitemage that I completely forgot how to play, and I kinda also have no idea whats going on in the story.
White mage isn't hard, it's best to keep your character, at the very worst, level a new class.
As far as the story goes, it will depend on where you are and if you have heavensward.
That said, you can rewatch the important cutscenes in your hotel room.
>>344339882
>They're still shit
confirmed for never having touched the class
Why are there so many servers when the majority of the playerbase is within 2 servers and the rest of the players are thinly spread out between the remaining 7 or 8 worldsWhy did I make a character in ultros
>>344341792
That happens in every MMO.
>>344341792
When the game originally rereleased in August 2013, they had to shut down registration and digital sales because servers couldn't handle it
>>344336251
Hah. Are you the WHM that recently returned to my FC? He just came back after a little over a year away and pretty much said the same things you did.
I'm on Zalera, btw.
>>344341792
ultros is comfy mid pop but everyone here is shit
>>344342570
Not him but I'm also on Zalera. Bout to give up and leave tho.
So how is your server, /v/?
Lamia here, and it's surprising tolerable.
>>344343243
Balmung is alive and well all the time.
