    They did respond about the AEs hitting well after you move out of the visual. Something about their net code and they're working on it. On my cell or I would try to find it. Its on the beta forums though and they do know about it. As far as GLD vs MRD there was some discussion previously...

    Are you sure it was a phase 4 key? I think the reason for those emails is because anyone registered for previous phases get access to the next phase. Sounds like if you received a phase 3 beta code and never registered it to an account, you'll have to re register for phase 4 because the...

    New jobs that are released on base classes will see people starting at 50 which is a concern I guess but it ties in with the "game starts at 50" thing, and reinforces the fact that this game, like many others, will live or die based on content production. If they can pump out new raids as well...

    Yeah. There's no such thing as a level 50 job. You earn levels as a class only. A job is literally just an item that alters your abilities. So leveling ACN to 50 will let you play as Scholar or summoner at that level as long as you have the soul item from finishing the unlock quest. That's...

    I think the cross hotbars are the ones designed for controller use. I thought I saw a checkbox or something to set hotbars to persist through class changing for the purposes you are suggesting but I didn't play with my UI enough to know for sure.

    It would be great if pieces in the armory chest had a number overlayed on the icon to show which gear set the item belongs to. Gearset 1 would put a little 1 in the corner, etc. Or at the very least a check mark or some other symbol to show if eaxh piece is in a gearset or not.

    I don't know which quests you guys are talking about, but I didn't have any problems figuring out when to heal and when to DPS. Most of them with NPCs helping you are pretty obvious with the way they fight the mobs their level and one weaker mob equal to your level attacks you specifically...

    Read the ice buff again. Ice increases your MP regen and lowers the dmg of fire spells. Fire increases the MP cost and removes MP regen. I only messed around on THM as i was playing CNJ but i assume the rotation is something like Fire till oom, transpose to ice buff, apply thunders, blizzard...

    Eastern La Noscea had lvl 30 leves in Costa del Sol. I did those at +4 difficulty easy at 32 with my chocobo. Some of them were shit though like the /beckon the baby buffalo over to his herd and the /soothe the birds at low hp. Had to stick my chocobo in healer stance for that one because he...

    Yeah I finally got 2 runs of Brayflox's in about 12pm CST, a couple hours before the server went down. I was waiting for a tank, checking back every hour or so (it's nice there's no auto-logout yet that I know of) Finally Delius or w/e logged in, the GLD we were with the night before and we...

    I'm not sure how many of you weren't on Malboro, but for those of you that were, is anyone else thinking of switching for P4 and live? The server seemed pretty dead and from what I heard, it didn't seem to be from limited amount of players in beta. People were saying other servers had more 30+...

    I was running with a GLD tank most of the way and I have to agree he took a lot less dmg than the couple MRD I grouped with. Only time I pulled agro off either of them was Medica spamming which isn't necessary unless the group is standing in things. I honestly liked the GLD tank better than...

    So what exactly are you supposed to do once you finish the story quest line? I'm 22 CNJ, got my chocobo, and gave up on botanist around level 7 when I was getting 30xp per use out of 7k needed to level. I see I have some hunting logs still to do and haven't done all of my guildleves yet. Is...

    Imitation Picture Thread

    If you aren"t a total fuckwit and have enough of an attention span to sit down and experiment with Photoshop for a few minutes before getting to work on your so-far rawsome pictures, you can learn to use things more complex than copy/paste and whatever the simple pencil or paintbrush tools.

    Actually, I can. People have done better using Paint. If you"re going to use Photoshop, learn the tools you can use and make them look decent.
