3.3 patch notes are out:
http://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/c46a38f1f22abc939057cc2f549d7622fb54b556
Who here is pumped for Deep Dungeons?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPmeKA5-03M
Some nice QoL improvement here and there.
But the content itself is kinda eh.
Only hyped for Final Steps of Faith EX.
Shatter is in thank fucking god. I just hope 3.35. isn't another month away.
>>339803430
>those moogle quest nerfs
top kek
>>339806164
It will be 6 weeks after.
Gotta milk those subscriptions.
So how about dem BRD buffs. Doesn't look like it's gonna be enough to dethrone MCH.
>two Hildi quests
>In light of the recent earthquake in Kumamoto, Japan, the counter for estate auto-demolition has been suspended until the release of patch 3.35.
Well that ruins literally everything for me.
>Aqua Gleam Hunter Force
>[3.0] The visual effect of the machinist action Wildfire has been changed.
>[3.0] A command to toggle the display of the machinist's gauss barrel has been added.
Where were you when Machinist won?
>4star crafts only
>specialist locked recipes
>materials required from Palace of Dead / clearing Aquapolis
>>339807709
You know they're adding a shitload new wards/houses right?
>>339808257
No, my plan was to have my house autodemolished before my sub runs out, so i can rebuy the land as a free company house for my friends to use while im unsubbed.
But now ill have to choose to demolish it myself and lost my 80% gil refund.
When will they make this into a single player game so i can play through it without all the mmo bullshit?
Neat, you can dye the relic weapons.
>>339808423
It is basically a single player game, you don't have to acknowledge the rest of your party as people and the devs are steadily removing required social interaction as well.
>>339808234
Those dungeon sets are pretty neat.
>Idling camera can now be used while in combat.
Enjoy your wipes.
>>339808234
That monk armor is nice
Unlike 3.1 this isn't offensively bad, but instead I am just really indifferent. I have been taking a break for like a week hoping 3.3 would get me into it again but I don't think I'm even going to booting up the game once the patch hits.
>>339808423
Why do you want to play it? If you think it's worth playing for the story, then you're horribly mistaken. The story is acceptable but not enough to carry a game.
It's not in the patch notes but the UI they snowed for palace of the dead has a window called item effects.
Maybe they are experimenting with horizontal progression in an environment separate from normal gear progression to see how it works out?
>>339808769
Which set is which aside from the obvious MCH and BLM set?
>deep dungeon with 3.35
Game is so fucking dead
>>339808997
Far left. That's the idle monk stance with weapons drawn.
>>339803430
that's a big patch
>>339808997
Leftmost is monk as he is doing the monk weapon stance.
Guy with feather helmet might be DRG.
>>339809024
They said that months ago family
>>339809098
>Guy with feather helmet might be DRG.
That'd be great for me, but I'm assuming it's tank gear and DRG shares the same set as MNK maybe in a different colour.
>>339809250
But DRG always shares with tanks.
While MNK shares with NIN.
Could be wrong, they've done things differently before, but this is the usual pattern.
>>339809302
>But DRG always shares with tanks.
No they don't
>>339809309
They have since Heavensward.
>>339809568
It's inconsistent , drg shares with whatever looks the most fitting on them or get their own entirely.
>>339809568
Current law tomestones have DRG with their own gear with tanks & mnk sharing a model.
>>339809568
Midan is a mnk recolor I believe.
IS NO ONE ELSE FUCKING EXCITED?

WHY COULDN'T YOU HAVE DONE THIS TWO MONTHS AGO
FUCK
>You can now hide the Gauss Barrel
Why is nobody talking about this?
>Wildfire visual changes and gauss barrel toggle command
Took them 1 year to fix this
>>339810610
Because its client side only. Other people can still see.
Thats gay. They got it halt right.
>>339810610
Because it's client side.
Why are you faggots hyping up this shit? It's the same type of content they have been feeding you for years now.
>nobody mentions bancho hair
>>339810749
Oh boy I can't wait to see every faggot and then some running around pretending to be a fucking JoJo character.
>>339803430
FFXIV is releasing a new patch next week while WoW hasn't had a new major content update since last year June. What's going on with Blizzard?
>>339810802
FUCK YEAH CANT WAIT TO PUT THIS SHIT ON MY CHARCOAL SKIN MALE ROE
>>339810715
It's new content and it's video game related
>Mfw Monk is still best DPS job
Based Greased Lightning
>>339810935
It's the same raid, dungeon, story quest and enemy boss#349 fight that they been releasing for years now
>>339810890
What's wrong with charcoal roes
>>339810676
>>339810695
Why is it a problem?
>Naw man, I'm sorry but you can't join the static as long as you have that shitty barrel on
>>339811083
And people still buy and hype Souls games
>>339810557
It's a catch up patch, stupid.
>>339811235
Why are you comparing a single player game to a MMO?
>>339811120
Nothing, that's why I'm excited to see how the pomp looks on him. I think I'll make it blood red for maximum stupidity.
>>339811167
The only use of this change is for taking action shots without the barrel showing up. For everything else it's a pointless change because nobody pays attention to other people's glamors during actual content, and outside of content people just disable the barrel.
I can switch my lady Yakuta for a lord's Yakuta now. This is a huge deal this patch.
>>339811058
BLM with a BRD is pretty close to MNK with a MCH, although it's fight dependent.

>Pretending to be a JoJo character
Excuse me but

Haircuts for the "XD" crowd. Just like everybody who got the afro, just put them in the fucking trash.
>>339811292
Because From keeps making the exact same content with each game but when it's them it's okay I guess.
>>339811412
Don't take my idea
>>339808234
>tank set
>healer set
>melee set
>ranged set
>mage set
That many sets should be patched into the game each patch. That many sets we had in almost all ARR patches. Why so lazy? Is it die to SE funneling all money into the shitfest that is boyband fantasy XV?
>>339811676
>Is it die to SE funneling all money into the shitfest that is boyband fantasy XV?
The XIV dev team is down to like, double digits now. It's laughably tiny thanks to people being yanked off to work on 15, 7R, and KH3.
I'm so glad the meme magic has worn off for me. No offence at all to people that still enjoy XIV but I can finally watch these trailers without feeling the 'hype'. 3 months clean and counting.
>>339808234
All dem reskins though, MNK set is the Caster PvP set and MCH/BRD is the Expeditioner set, etc. I know reskins are commonplace but still
>>339811781
>The XIV dev team is down to like, double digits now. It's laughably tiny thanks to people being yanked off to work on 15, 7R, and KH3.
It's not that it's unbelievable when you look at hte content that's being pushed out, or rather the lack thereof, but do you have a source on that?
>>339811512
Each game is a different installment from a -series- where one game improves over the last one. Are you an idiot?
>>339811167
>Why is it a problem?
If it looks ugly to you, naturally you don't want other people seeing it as well. Making it clientside is only fixing 50% of the problem.
It would be like if glamour was client-side only for you and other people saw you in WoW outland-style clown suit gear. It kind of defeats the point of it.
Personally I like gauss barrel and think it improves every gun, but I still sympathize.
>>339811808
>MNK set is the Caster PvP set and MCH/BRD is the Expeditioner set
You couldn't be more wrong.
>>339811851
You missed the point completely. You should do some introspection before calling others retards.
>>339811781
Why? XIV is a steady source of income and did a lot to redeem Square's image. Why squander it now? But if the team is really that low those patches are pretty impressive, all things considered.
>>339811931
I wish they had decided to go with the unique barrel idea. I'm pretty sure they had concept art for various 3.0 guns with gauss barrels unique to each gun. Too much work I guess.
>>339811587
There's a difference between having fun and "Hey guys look at me! Look at me! I am so silly look at my haircut!"
>>339811821
It was mentioned in a live letter or interview a few months back. I think around 3.1? Yoshida off handedly mentioned something about the team being 'hard pressed' and not so subtly saying that people were yanked off. Taking that, paired with the fact that we get two dungeons per patch and re-used art assets out the ass I'm honestly inclined to believe it. The sad thing is that XIV is one of the few things keeping Squeenix afloat while KH3 and 7R will inevitably bleed money. XV was too, until they finally started to shit it out quickly like they are now (and with a hilariously overpriced super shill pre-order edition to boot).
>>339810749
It's displayed on a lalafell they know they want the reddit audience.
>>339812068
bards get special quivers everytime tho
>purchaseable with gil or tokens
>>339812001
I didn't missed shit, it's idiotic to compare a single player game to a MMO. A game SERIES is SUPPOSED to be similar. You aren't going to start a SERIES as a super hero that fights crime and suddenly CHANGE that to a guy that drives sportscars for a living. Street Fighter, Super Mario, Pokemon ALL of these are series something which a MMO can't become by nature.
>>339812089
How so? Can people not joke about their silly hair with their friends and come up with glamors to match?
>>339812178
>using tokens for anything but unidentified pieces
>>339812214
Holy shit you're so dense.
>>339812170
does this look like a man who caters to the reddit audience?
>>339812178
Gnath gear looks nice. Hopefully you can /visor the mask and just have the straw hat.
Vanu and the fucking pig gear is lalafell and roe bait.
>>339812243
Maybe I'm in the wrong crowd but there's way too many people trying way too hard to be quirky. Also I am just a cranky old man shaking my fist at people the dare walk into my garden.
Will 3.3 save HW bros?
Yah more dreary theme park content! I couldn't be more excited!
>>339812263
>B-But they are also making the same content!!
No, that's not how things work. If you EVER played a single player game then you should know the obvious. SE are being lazy fucks and you know it.
>>339812412
Not even close. At this point you just have to hope that the next expansion will be good.
i hope i can dye the purple shitstain away from the drk relic
>>339812178
Kobold and sylph gear when?
>>339812284
It's fucking perfect too. I wasn't sure what to use my MGP for and I needed something that wasn't the moogle outfit to do for a tank glamor set. That pig set is gonna look fucking retarded on a male roe.
Now I just need to find the dumbest looking axe, prolly titan.
>>339812412
3.4 will save Heavensward
also, the new expansion will be revealed this October.
>>339812412
If you haven't like it until this point, I doubt anything aside from the next expansion could change your mind.
>still no victory emotes on duty complete screen
The one small change I wanted.
>>339812460
Maximum damage control.
You're trying too hard.
Qiqirn beast tribe with Yojimbo primal that deals more damage the richer you are when?
>>339812643
Would be great if you could customize your victory animation like the endshot in overwatch. Maybe even have some pair based emotes like high fives when you go with a premade.

Tam-tara hard was really good though. Can't wait to see her back fucking AGAIN in palace of the dead.
>>339812680
Yeah, let me compare apples to oranges. That'll help me out! Fucking idiots i swear.
So I've been slowly acquiring unidentified pieces after getting my one relic up to the current stage. Now they're making ixali dailies give gathering/crafting IVs. I was doing kobold sylphs and planned to drop sylphs for moogle, but I'm not sure if I should also drop kobold and switch to Vanu/Vath/Moogle/Ixali.
>>339814072
Does it really matter? Seems to me like you're putting way too much thought into this.
>>339814209
No man I gotta be super efficient. Switching over to Ixali will slow my relic acquisition because I'm pretty sure oaknots can't be turned in for unidentified pieces. Oaknots are also fucking useless last time I checked.
Gee this sure is something to look forward to instead of Zurvan.
i can't wait to do a boring instanced fight against some Garlean soldiers and a mech or two. I'm looking forward to Sophia in 3.8!
>>339808959
Obviously. They did said itemization in PotD is separated from the main game.
>>339809060
Whoa, now I feel like being hyped again.
But they're still going to fucked it up.
>>339815710
It's not even coming with 3.3It can't be as bad as Diadem right?
>>339815805
>It can't be as bad as Diadem right?
Shouldn't, Couldn't, Wouldn't, or so I wish.
At least it's limited to 4 people at most this time. Instead of ten billion people dinosaur hitting clusterfuck like diadumb.

Oh sorry, I thought every got the chance to pretend to be retarded.
Thought it was my turn.
So what's with these fucking Althyk Lavender and Voidrake seeds? They get turned in for minor crafting materials when fully grown? Why would you even waste your time?
>>339816184
If you think that is bad this must be your first relic.
>>339807890
what was wrong with wildfire?
>>339816626
they added a flashier animation to it thats all
>>339816567
Unless they yield more than one crop per grow. I could go for 10 adamantite nuggets from one plot.
>>339816626
It didn't look very wild till now.
>>339808257
Not him, but the housing market, much life real life, is garbage and poorly managed in FFXIV.
Apartments when?
I am pretty excited about this patch, even though there is a lack of actual content. All my crafters are leveled, and slightly geared. I am getting a FC up to rank 6 this weekend so I will have a house and airship all to myself. I took a break, so haven't been able to do anything when it has been bleeding edge content and that is always the best time to do stuff. Another PVP will be interesting for a little while. I just hope Nidhogg is a dance and not a mechanical clusterfuck. Dances are always the best, imo. Titan, Shiva, Sephirot, etc. And hopefully Aquapolis is kind of random so the best choices aren't figured out immediately. Same with Palace of the Dead when it comes out. They need to try their hardest to not have another Diadem.
>>339810830
They don't care, and their current customers are literal cucks
>>339812035
Companies can be surprisingly stupid, anon. I work for a software company that's taking our department, which is very profitable, and diminishing it just to make things more convenient for another. They're wasting tons of time, money, and effort on something that can be solved if they simply hire 3-5 more people for the shitty department.
Finally ninja AOE buffs
Jesus christ being a nin is suffering for regular dungeons where majority of damage needed is AOE
I dont know what the FUCK they were thinking with death blossom. 100 potency for 120 tp was vomit inducing
>>339812275
No, probably 2chan, which is the Japanese equivalent of Reddit.
I'm sure the NA/EU community management team loves reddit like nobody's business. Criticism isn't allowed there, and all the topics are stupid irrelevant shit like "look at my glamour" and "look at my character art"
>>339812243
>using tokens for anything but unidentified pieces
>actually working on a relic
lmaoing at ur life
>>339817515
It's still not enough. You're less shit but still bad.
>>339817625
>probably 2chan
My bad, I mean 2channel
>>339816626
>>339816675
>>339817001
It needs to be AT LEAST as flashy as Fire IV considering we get it once per 1.5mins and BLMs can just shit those things out.
>>339817683
Oh did you mean TsuChi, senpai-san? *puts on naruto headband and eats ramen*
>>339817649
well yeah, but being less shit is always good.
Katon is actually worth using only 2 targets now instead of using a raiton on one.
Is bard good/fun?
>>339817049
That's what they should have done:
Open one of the buildings in Mor Dhona as Adventurer apartments, and create a number of floors. Instead of having instanced houses in instanced wards you'd have one building with an infinite number of Floor instances.
>>339817821
It was always worth it on 2 targets unless you're specifically focussing one down first. It's worth it just for an extra crit chance ffs.
>Beast tribe armor are all sold in individual pieces and can be bought with tokens or gil
Does this mean it's confirmed glamourable then?
>>339817950
its significantly better now on two targets though
Raiton is 360 potency, katon was 180 before, so you pretty much relying on those crits for extra damage.
now its a netgain since its 500 potency total now for hitting 2
also considering theres no damage cap, katon could be pretty lethal for larger groups now. I don't even know if the doton buff will be worth it unless your other AOE partner is shit
>Mhachi matter will no longer be obtainable in the Void Ark, but can now be obtained in the Weeping City of Mhach.
I don't know how to feel about this. I wish both 24mans gave a matter, but this just means that void ark is completely useless now so I don't have to run it, which is nice.
I'm having a lot of trouble controlling my buffs and the battlefield at the same time (just lvl'd up BLM to 60 and controlling the astral, firestarter, thundercloud and fucking enochian is a headhache, never had trouble before).
Could you show me or tell me where to put the BUFF bar on the hud?
Pic related: my hud.
>>339818105
>so you pretty much relying on those crits for extra damage.
in consistent AoE, you'd end up with a higher average using Katon.
It was always worth it at 2.
Ofcourse it's better now, that much is blindingly obvious.
I would love to play it but Im not paying for that fucking sub

Why are catboys always the worst tanks and both literal and figurative faggots? The only times I've ever been dismissed are by whiny faggot catboy paladins while playing a dps with good aoe. What is it with terrible tanks always blaming everyone else because they're shit and retards defending them when you call them out on it?
Are they removing the Weekly cap for Alex?
>>339818462
the one perk that comes out of playing ninja. you dont have to deal with shitter tanks at the later levels since shadewalker will FORCE them to tank for you
>>339818508
Tokens are unlimited, yes.
>>339818672
So I can run Alex Midas over and over and always select need?
>>339819013
Yes you can get all the crappy 220 gear if you want to run easy mode over and over, same thing you could've gotten from crafting months ago if you weren't poor as fuck.
>>339803430
>astrologian buffs
So its fucking nothing?
>>339819365
They're trying to justify Nocturnal sect's existence again.
They buffed the shielding on it but doesn't it say what they already buffed it to? or did they add an extra 20% on top of that.
>10 minutes of Hildibrand again
Oh boy, can't wait for disappointment.
>>339819467
It basically heals for the same amount succor would but th shield is 20% stronger.
Which is....nothing?
>>339819467
It's fucking nothing
>>339818462
>smn not using aoe
Then what should we do? Spam Ruin?
>>339817953
Everything is glamourable. Did you miss the update when they let you glamour multi slot items?
So much for quitting the game then.
I'm not seeing how slightly stronger shields are supposed to make them think its an attractive alternative to scholar.
>>339819584
what I mean is they already did that. I typed out a whole thing but I realized this is for Aspected Helios which they gave the same treatement to for Aspected benefic.
Nocturnal Benefic was changed to shield for 130% of what it healed. Aspected Helios is shit so they changed it to a 120% shield too.
Spread's recast time was lowered though which is a decent change.
[3.0] The visual effect of the machinist action Wildfire has been changed.
DID THEY MAKE IT ACTUALLY MATCH THE SHITLOAD OF DAMAGE IT DOES
>>339819865
Spread recast doesn't really change much tho because i'm still having a card there almost 100% of the time
>>339819238
But I have two sets of Eikon iLV220 gear
>you can now /visor on equipment preview
also any bets on what the 3.3 dungeon gear will be a recolor of? Sohm Al?
>>339819365
That Spread buff is actually really good.
It makes the class much more strategic, because you can now plan around doling out buffs at certain times (think Enhanced Bole for tankbusters) without gimping yourself.
>>339820283
i hope those >>339808234
i dont think they are crafted since its a catch up patch, but then again 3.1 had the skypirate stuff
>>339819935
it now does a explosion effect when it expires, the intensity of the explosion depends on how much damage you do.
bigger wildfires = bigger explosion
>>339820491
It always did an explosion, it was just tiny.

Just get the Nidhogg weapon
I just beat Castrum Meridianum earlier today, and I'm now up to patch 2.3 content (I think).
Question:
Why did Haurchefant suddenly go batshit insane?
Look at my character's face; she killed the Ultima Weapon, an Ascian and half a dozen primals and even she's fucking terrified.
>>339821459
This madman needs to be put down
I'm coming up on 1mil mgp soon
Should I get cloud card or fenrir
>>339821395
I'll have to see what's available and go from there.
There will probably be an easier 230 or 240 weapon to obtain in 3.3 anyway
>>339821542
Fenrir can fly next week.
>>339821459
>Why did Haurchefant suddenly go batshit insane?
Haurchefant is your best friend and biggest fan. Embrace him. Embrace him and never let go.

>shitter from Moogle
Why am I not surprised
>>339821545
The Nidhogg weapon will probably be i235. I doubt you will be able to get any other weapon though. Maybe in the Palace of the Dead.
>Moogle Beast tribe is only done with Deciple of the Hand
I was looking forward to them...
3.3 is already ded to me
>>339821542
Neither, I'm closing in on 1 mil and I don't plan on getting either. Just gonna camp on that MGP until something I really want comes out.
I don't play TT, and fenrir is a shit tier mount. It's not even all that rare anymore now that the game has been out for ages, so it doesn't even have that going for it anymore. Default chocobo is the only acceptable mount because you can swap its barding to match your glamour.
So Raid Finder is just a glorified DF menu and only applies to shit you can solo queue. WHAT A GREAT USE OF RESOURCES.
>>339821776
I was actually half expecting gathering beast tribe.
Moogle beast tribe is just ixal 2.0. And if it's anything like Ixal then it'll be a good way to level up your crafting.
You can still max out moogle shit so long as you have one crafter at 50 which is the bare minimum I think.

>And if it's anything like Ixal then it'll be a good way to level up your crafting.
And make plenty of gil from selling ehctal sealant furry edition.
>>339821973
The ixali quests made you gather a bunch of stuff to in addition to crafting so it's half and half really

I was hoping they'd be Gathering-specific.
I fucking hate crafting. Everything after 2-star recipes in ARR has been awful; mainly because it killed macro-crafting through layers upon layers of Good/Hasty Touch/Reclaim-proc RNG and macros were the only reason I tolerated it to begin with.

>>339817920
I got it to lv 34 for quelling and I loved it. Kinda sad I had to drop it. A lot of people say it sucks in new content because they give most of thier abilities a cast time with a lv52 ability, where up until then bard was the only class that never had to stand still for anything. They're still okay though despite this but I think MCH is a little better right now because they got a buff awhile ago.

Story wise they weren't around during 2.0, it'd make no sense for her to hide her face then if your character was an Au Ra too.

You're still missing a weapon, which counts for 2 slots. So unless you can pay for enough Sephirot carries to get a weapon, assuming you grind out an Esoteric weapon you need to somehow get two i230 accessories to average out the i210.

How do you do that?
Can you sell the mats that you get from the poetics?
>>339828872

>>339829326

>>339829326
If housing is limited, it'd be retarded not to remove inactive players' houses so people who actually play the fucking game can get one.
>>339829730
Here's a wild concept, stay with me here it's pretty crazy;
Don't make housing fucking limited in the first place.
Most people highly exaggerate the amount of gil they make.
>>339829504
It's just another instance of
>you lose again normies
The items needed to craft the relic items are absurdly easy to get but since they're locked behind 60* crafts people pay absurd prices for them. The value of them is easily 1/100th of what they actually sell for because crafters tend to be jews.
>>339829504
You need 20 items crafted for relic. Those crafts require somewhat decent stats and rotation.
>>339829730
They should have just introduced a fully instanced environment at this point to dump inactive houses to.
In fact, it should have been there from the get go for personal housing, instead of making them share the same ward space with FC houses.
>>339829959
blablabla PS3 limitations blablabla server klimitations blablabla Yoshida
>>339829959
Oh? I'm sure you have an awesome algorithm for data compression and instancing. For houses.
FOR EVERYONE.
>>339829969
Not really. The price inflation is real, especially in heavily populated servers like Gilgamesh and Gaymung.
>>339830082
Nothing is stopping them from just adding dozens more wards.
>>339810447

>>339830145

>>339830001
>but since they're locked behind 60* crafts people pay absurd prices for them.
If you're talking Heavensward relic, they pay it because you basically need every crafter on spcialist, do balls hard crafting in HQ and need to make several of them. Even those who can make a selection of material or items to trade in are forced to buy the rest.
>>339830350
Yeah hahaha let's just add bunches of housing wards that will just stay empty in less populated servers wasting server resources for no reason.
>>339830505
Add them based on realm pop demands? WUOAH.
Just fucking set limit to one house per character.
There, problem fucking solved.
Is this coming out anytime soon?
Who /Adamantoise/ here?
How long is maintenance
>>339830610
Thats literally already a thing. The problem is you can make like 8 or 9 characters per account on a realm. They would need to make it 1 per account.

>>339830730
Considering the requirements for housing require you to be ARR end-game level and get to the current max rank of the GCs, it would take a bit of effort to do.
>>339830928

So is this game a Vana'diel spin off or set in the same universe as XI? I'm a new player to this game and I've just seen Goblins from XI as well as lots of enemies from that game, what gives?
>>339831896
lustrate was not on a 5 minute cooldown
>>339831948
And yet it gets more battle content monthly than XIV does in a six month raid window?
Although I'm still on the edge of liking or disliking its recently added mount music.

No, it just reuses a bunch of stuff from XI and other FF games.
>>339832135
they don't
they just want to get rich
>>339832067
my current head canon is thatFF14's world is the same as FF5, and its proximity to the 'Void' is what has all the elemnts from other FF's slip in
I'm still waiting for the eponymous Warrior of Light from FF1 to show up
>>339832203
All Final Fantasy games prior have used their own goblins though, the XIV one's don't look like the XIII ones they look like they literally recycled the exact same models.
>>339832130
You stay in busy 24/7? I wouldnt dare spam trade someone since they could report me.
>>339832221
I think this is everyone's headcanon by now.
>>339832338
XIV actually did a proper remodelling of the Goblin/Qiqirns, but that was done during 1.0 times when the devs had a semblance of visual consistency, before YoshiP made them rip the models from XI flat-out for ARR production.
>>339832221
You can sorta make him show up. If you use his WoL gear from LoTA and the helm of light. Yoshida says he doesn't want to bring in characters whose stories are complete or deceased which is I think is a bit crap since Dissidia just pulls characters from certain parts of their stories.
>>339832476
my headcanon has usually been proven wrong. i KNEW that Shiva was the primal of the Gigas, and i KNEW that Tataru was a turncoat, and I KNEW that Y'shtola was dead.
course, now i KNOW thatEstinien will survive being Nidhogged but seal himself away. I feel that either Lucia or the older Fortemps brother will be killed next patch
>>339832135
I make hundreds of thousands on just dyes alone.
Not to mention selling glamour shit.

>>339833108
all purpose white and black dye sells very well. the kind you get from the retainer ventures. some of the metallic ones do as well, and dark purple sells
>>339831286
vale is only hard if the tank overpulls or if the dps are so retarded they stand in the poison pools
>>339827820
He's totally normal
>>339833185
That's not crafting, that's getting lucky with ventures. How do you make regular income out of that?
>>339833108
Some dyes like Soot Black and Regal purple are craft only.
Get a bunch of pigment, pump em out, sell em in stacks of 5 to dye left side. Folks need their edgy black gear yo.
Make bank selling ingots and the lv 30-45 jewelry too.
How hard is Sephirot?
I'm rusty as fuck, and need to learn and farm out a weapon tomorrow.
>>339833142
It didn't matter for the first boss, since it had a room wide aoe that would inflict poison. That was a pain in the ass.

To make money you need money.
I'm still grinding crafters and it's awful, only 2 above 50 and I'll need to get them all to 60 after.
>>339833430
Easier than Thordan EX.
Harder than Rav and Bis EX at release.
>>339833559
>buy glamour dispellers and terebinth from vendors
>sell for like 5x the vendor price
Literally free gil
>>339833445
Yeah, god forbid there used to be a dungeon where Sustain had a use.
Granted if your DPS were complete shitters you had to save a swiftcast to resummon in first/last boss.
>>339833360
its much more consistent than people think. my bard retainer is at 210 and brings back a dye every other hour or so. i also get primal ex mats or furniture, grade 5 materia, etc
also i'm not him. but as a omnicrafter myself, the most consistent money comes from selling items that can't be made with just items that come from vendors. you'd be surprised how much a piece of boar leather can cost
Would you grind for lore?
>>339833582
soot black can be bought from the Ixali vendor
>trial level cap raised from 20 to 35
Oh hey, that's actually really neat.
>>339833559
Leves, GC turn ins, first time and HQ craft bonuses, rest XP/food.
You don't have any high level crafter friends who can just pump out your leve and GC shit for you?
>>339833660
You can buy terebinth from any dye vendor, what retard buy them from mb? At least for dispellers you need a crafter leveled.
>>339833681
Sustain did not counteract that poison, especially since the poison would stack, and because the fairy couldn't eat fruit, it'd die no matter what. Couple that ALONG with having to save that swiftcast for the retarded DPS.
>>339833573
Thanks. I never actually did Thordan because lol3.1, but
>Harder than Rav and Bis EX at release.
hmm. I actually found Ravana really hard largely because of Final Liberation; my group just TankLB'd it and I got my weapon so I never needed to run it again.
Anything I should know as a healer? Or will a video guide be sufficiently comprehensive?
>>339833860
Lots of people, and you can buy the dispellers from the same vendors you buy the clear prisms from.
>>339833786
I don't have the gear to make HQ shit so I sell my soul to jews for easy turn ins.
>>339833762
Still a market for it since a lot of folks skip beast tribe shit unless doing current relic and even then.
>>339833776
iirc that leaves you at the church in eastern thalanan after the happening at the waking sands
>>339833860
The game has a lot of lazy and dumb people who don't do their research. That includes sellers too.
>>339833949
>im still too socially inept in an mmo to make friends
>>339833860
I am guilty of buying dyes for like 100 gil when they're across town for 40 gil from a vendor. Its a non issue when you get so much money.
>>339833776
It's actually over half the level cap.
It's also good because at that point you can get your Job as well.
>>339833931
Lots of AoE going around in the first phase, and then adds phase has nasty going on too.
Second phase is more about mechanics, so you might want to get used to it first before attempting and sick plays.
If all of your character data inexplicably got deleted, would you reach where you currently are again from the beginning?
Looking back, I remember just how terrible some ARR quests were.
>more meme outfits for roes and lalafells to meme about
fucking idiots making the devs pander to their so randum tastes
>>339834167
The few I had weren't crafters.
Yoshida wont ever pander to these people who are dumb enough to have XIV as their first Final Fantasy are they?
>>339834264
I'd prolly quit and wait on Legion. I like XIV but that much time invested lost would not be worth making up.
>>339834264
I would be able to make a new character and get them up.
But alt jobs? Absolutely no way.
>>339834264
Unless they came up with something amazing in 4.0, probably not.
>>339834358
Considering the 3.1-3.3 quests are as short as ruggadick perhaps they are.
>>339834264
I had my account suspended and I had to start all over again, not as bad as I thought it'd be but fuck the Titan quest chain.
>>339834257
Alright then I'll study a few guides before making a learning party.
Thanks again.
>>339833776
They probably that you hit lvl20 way too fucking quickly in modern XIV compared to when the trial was first introduced.
>>339834358
It's not the progression of the game people are complaining about, it's that the majority of the playerbase are at the end game doing community based things.
At what point in the buildup to Heavensward are you ever directly working with other people you know?
>>339834264
Now that I have a good, helpful FC? Yeah, I would.
I ran solo right up until I got high enough to run towers. It sucked.
I wish i could come back into this game but the expansion never gets a discount
>>339834745
Amazon sells the physical version of Heavensward for $20
Wait is there not enough houses in the game for all players that want one? Why aren't they instanced?
>>339834745
it's always on sale at bestbuy or amazon.
>>339835089
housing scarcity is only an issue on a handful of servers
>>339834745
Only an issue if you bought ARR on steam.
>>339827187
i try not to, was bad
>>339835180
You mean dead servers?
>>339835089
Instanced housing diminishes its importance and personality. The 'housing' in 11 was so boring and weak in comparison.
>>339835710
the crowded ones
>>339835309
>>339834902
>>339835129
Yeah i got the steam version
>>339835941
Why won't you go take a screenshot of 3 or more free plots on your crowded server then?
>>339835180
>tfw on Adamantoise
>moderately populated server
>every fucking plot is taken
>some FC decided to buy up like fucking 50 plots in the Mists
>Egi potency buffs
Neat. Still won't let us touch BLM on single, but I'll take it.
>>339836051
i don't follow. i said that housing is only an issue on crowded servers
>>339836051
But he literally just said that the crowded servers are the only ones where housing is scarce. Not that I necessarily agree with him (any server that isn't outright dead probably won't have many free houses) but holy shit you're retarded.
When they announced housing districts I imagined bustling neighborhoods with people afking in front of their house or hanging around doing gardening or practicing striking dummies or whatever
Instead it's just a ghost town because everybody afks at idleshire anyways
I don't really understand why they call them raids.
They're more like boss rooms.
>>339836195
>>339835180
>>339835710
The word SCARCITY means very few are available. Then for some reason this other guy said dead servers even though SCARCITY is an issue on the full servers.
>>339836194
At least you can actually fucking move once in a while.
I'm honestly considering switching jobs just because getting massive numbers isn't worth losing my fucking Enochian every other second. The astral/umbral duration buff helped, but you can only Aetherial Manipulation your way out of a shitty situation so much.
>>339836373
Well then you have the issue of making housing too important and locking people out of important features of convenience, and then everyone idles inside their house and the game world is empty.
>>339836194
Going to be three years soon enough and pets will still be unresponsive little fucks.
>Hit place -> Whispering Dawn -> Queue up Rouse
>Pet casts Embrace, then whispering dawns, then moves to placed spot halfway before embracing again, then finishes moving
I sure love microing SCH pet so the above doesn't happen.
>>339836752
You know what would be cool, if that trait were surecast can reset its own cooldown was for aetherial manipulation instead
>>339836373
>because everybody afks at idleshire anyways

They've put literally zero effort into the pets.
>>339837146
I had to end up macroing Heel to my mount macro for that reason. Kept losing my Garuda in PVP since I'd forget she was placed.
Idylshire looks like shit.

Just got to level 30 and became a SMN. I haven't touched any of the crafting jobs yet. Should i level them up as i go, or do them at 60? And how do i make money, only got 100k gil?
>>339826427
maybe she likes wearing a mask?
>>339833445
Whispering dawn, Rouse, sustain, succor
>>339837881
>Should i level them up as i go, or do them at 60?
Do them once you have a class at 60. You don't need to, but it will make things go a lot faster.
>And how do i make money, only got 100k gil?
Gathering is the easiest way to make money. You want to have your Miner and Botanist to a minimum of 30. Then you want your free retainers to be a Miner and a Botanist. This while they can gather items for you to sell while you gather items as well. You'll also need them to gather crystals for you when you start getting into crafting.

The final boss was harder. What makes people so retarded in MMOs? I don't think any dungeon was difficult while leveling except for that one toxic looking cave and the one with the sand dunes since colors are too hard for DPS players.
>>339839798
People are retarded in MMOs because modern WoW MMOs don't teach you shit and let you easy-mode to the level cap without having to actually look at your tooltips.
Qarn normal got nerfed twice since its inception also.
>>339840038
Can't have suffered as bad as Amdapor Keep. Now that place got hit with the nerf bat hard.
>>339840428
best part was it was nerfed after it was the only place to get Myth tomes
>>339839798
I think those people were just assuming you were retarded like most new people who they assume are new to the genre. Knowing to stand on the platforms for doom is considered 'hard' for that level range, same with killing the block enemies on the platforms.
>>339840428
Qarn
>Last boss lasers nerfed, now slow as fuck and have huge AoE lane indicators
>Space needed to place heads on platforms made more lenient
>Final sting no longer one-shots, god forbid tanks learn to stun or DPS not be shit
>Doom effect a couple seconds longer than it used to
>Removed junk pile on first boss
>AoE damage from second and last boss reduced
AKHM
>Gnats removed from second boss
>AoE from last boss laughable
>two groups of 3 mobs removed to speed the run up
>>339840919
The lasers from the last boss in Qarn always had those AoE Lane indicators.
>>339840919
To be fair thats way too much going on for a lowbie dungeon.
>>339841210
Thy had faint thin lines hovering in the air. Not lanes on the ground that indicated their full coverage.
>>339841261
Not really. It's not like all those mechanics were presented at the same section.
Leveling a tank class 'cause I'm bored.
I was just in Cutters, and some DRG kept consistently attacking a different enemy than the one I was focusing down, making me lose aggro on it and having to divide my attention.
I was under the impression that it was always better to focus down single enemies as a party, making it easier for the tank to hold aggro on the whole pack and getting rid of enemies faster. Is that true, or am I just supposed to deal?
Also, what other tips should I know? Level 41 WAR.
>>339841315
Are you sure? Cuz I recall those lanes always being there and I've been around since 2.0
>>339841481
he was just being dumb. aoe doesn't become faster till the high 40s, and even then if you have 2 TP dps then you're still better off single targeting
>>339841481
If you're a WAR you have no excuse to not keep control of big groups ever since you got Overpower
>>339841481
just split your combo between different enemies while focusing the one the dps are focusing
or just use marks
or tell him he's being a dumb shit
>>339841481
How is war compared to gladiator? been deciding between the two for awhile
>>339841997
infinitely better
>>339841481
Whether the dps are making your job more difficult than it should be or not, there's no excuse for consistently dropping aggro. Cycle through targets or use some aoe. The enmity bars exist for a reason.
>>339841997
WAR is a secure raid spot, the other 2 compete for a spot.
That should say plenty really. There's no contest.
>>339841997
WAR is ultimately a better tank than PLD, although PLD should be played if you're new to tanking, or if you just want to get Provoke.
>>339841513
You recall bad. Everyone's favourite Mr.Happy to the rescue.

>>339841624
>>339841684
>>339841762
>>339841997
>>339842196
Right. I understand I shouldn't be losing aggro in the first place. Is Overpower/Flash spam really the best way to get control of a larger group? Or is there something WAR gets later on?
Also, this may betray my ignorance, but is there some way of telling in the enmity bar if I'm about to lose priority to someone else? I noticed the red squares flash sometimes. Does it have something to do with that?
>>339842480
yes, the red squares will start to flash if you're about to lose it
Overpower 3 times is usually enough to keep threat on you. at later levels you get Steel Cyclone which is a threat bomb
>>339842480
red square means you have aggro
orange triangle means you almost have aggro
yellow triangle means you have some aggro
green circle means you barely have any aggro
the white bars next to the job icons in the party list represent aggro
>>339842480
There's enmity bars on the party frames
A = you have threat
2 = second in threat
and so on
>>339842480
Yes sir. The symbols next to their names on the enemy list show their enmity. They should always be red dots/squares or whatever the fuck they are.
As for keeping aggro, use your combo as always on the main enemy, then rotate a few times on the others with Overpower sprinkled every once in a while
>>339842392
Huh, so it appears.
