http://imgur.com/a/xJaF6-- That Odin model (scroll down a bit). Dayum. I want his mount. I also about choked when I saw a suggestion on Reddit that Gilgamesh will be the Moon Guard equivalent.

Temptation to roll as Woodhouse is increasing. (And yes, I'd switch to Alchemist for "reasons" if I did that.) Patch Notes Hrms - Coerthas and Mor Dhona is as expected,but what and where are Mist and the Wolve's Den? - Materia melding interface is pretty spiffy: bake it all in, include...

I'm thinking the would-be raiders should at least try to get a crafting class up in tandem with their main job. Main thought there as to why is mid-raid repairs.

I was secretly hoping for ISIS FC name, myself.

My memory is pranking me again. It was saying they started 5am JST. ;p

Amazing spreadsheet for Gatherers is amazing. You have to make a copy of it to your Google Drive in order to mess with it for your needs. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...ZldoVmc#gid=16

Signup sheet "patch notes"/PSA that nobody cares about! Auto-counting is in, for classes/jobs/etc., for those wondering where we stand for a basic count. It's on its own sheet. It's not fully accurate because I'm not sure how to account for the "X or Y" class entries via formulas just yet...

There was an infographic posted that was stated to be a more accurate result (duplicate entries removed). Details here:http://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/commen...racter_survey/ Infographic:http://i.imgur.com/nhTm07A.jpg Some points of interest: Grand Company percentages. Pretty much a split...

Supposedly the 17th. Get your salt can.

In theory wouldn't a majority of us be queueing together with insta-heal/tank hax anyway? I'd rather not start on de-facto queue server myself, but rather something mid-high pop, if such can even be measured right now... Definitely not a Legacy server though. That said, this is my count...

I'm futzing with the signup sheet (Chrys is aware of this). Going to clean it up a smidge, then make some basic counts of what people are thinking, those that are still interested anyway, just to see where the wind blows for who wants to be what role.

What server are we going to roll on? Still Malboro or are we going to wholesale over to Gilgamesh like was mentioned?

It was very nice to see Arcanist/Summoner/Scholar live gameplay in this video. Example here @ 1:50 on. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkDVn-HcS0Y

Yeah (to the class grinding). We'll have the full details in about 18 hours from this writing anyway. I'd be surprised if they just did one weekend for P4 when previous talk has been 7 days straight. They'll want the time to make sure Arcanist works - DPS output, pets functional, etc. - as...

Not-quite special. The game supports three types and we've been shown examples of content for each: Light Party - 4 man (early instances and guildhests utilize this) Full Party - 8 man (we've seen screenshots of at least 2 L50 instances with this, one of which a Primal and another a dungeon...

I don't have a good comparison off the top of my head for 1.0's 8-man content. Maybe 10-man WoW raiding, but that doesn't sit well in my mind, for some reason. As to relic weapons, Ithinkthis is one example, but I could be having the wrong kind in my head...

I should clarify one thing: we don't know if P4 will have literally everything content wise (storyline quests, etc.). Also, in P3 you were halted at the L20 range for the storyline, with a level cap of 35. They could very well still have that in P4. So I wouldn't necessarily plan on trying...

Yes, in a nutshell.

Or, if for some reason a Job comes out and your base class for it is maxed out, just go somewhere and level sync down (FATE, guildhest, dungeon) and then you can see what it was like at X level.

Did 1.0 even have (24 man) raids? There was 8-man (full party) content, but the Crystal Tower and Bahamut's Labyrinth are new to 2.0 are they not? @Laedrun - Unlimited ammo, iirc. Never touched Archer, but there isn't support for arrows in crafting or on the vendors.

I wouldn't really judge the game until you at least start doing some of the group content, which begins once you finish the story chains at L15. And Ifrit. You can't miss out on Ifrit before judging this fully, imo. It's not Next Gen Fight or anything, but damn if it doesn't look good on...

There are rumors going around - and I could swear I saw something official, but I have to look for it - that Early Access will begin a full week before launch (August 20; launch is August 27), with P4 rumored to be starting this Friday (Aug 9), if not right after the Live Letter on Aug 8. Phase...

It's not available. They'll give directions via the forum when P4 is live. So no predownload yet.

Keep in mind this is my personal experience up to about L24 from beta phase 3, with a level cap roughly around 35, and that I was playing strictly as a Conjurer (i.e. without levelling other classes to get some of their skills): - There were a couple hiccups on my end for some of the story...

Maybe I'm jaded towards Affliction Warlocks in WoW, but it seems like Arcanist being DoT-centric is kind of meh with these numbers, but I could just be thinking about DPS comparisons between Arcanist and Thamaturge as you level. Similarly to Pyros and Vorph, I myself was seriously expecting...

So since we're playing with benchmarks, I'm soliciting ideas on what the hardware to target for an upgrade first is (I'm guessing GPU), because this score seems really low to me. Then again, I'm hardware un-savvy these days, so the rig is very likely on the lower end by today's standards. I...

They didn't change meeting stones to perform summoning for a long time, to my recollection. Originally they were for setting your bind/hearth point back in I think Classic Alpha, then some function I forget (either flagged you LFG or became scenery for a while), THEN they became the...

That's the reason I clicked on it... *scuffs foot*

So apparently they showed the pilot at ComicCon. They're really touching on the past films in the MCU it seems, from what I've read on the cliff's notes. Since Cobie Smaulders is pretty much confirmed as a recurring appearance (duh, right?), I'm really wondering if we'll see Samuel L...

DoTs in this game are probably the one major issue I have as far as soloing goes. I'm not saying "omg buff dots crazy plox" (cross-classing causes a little fun there...), but they're still pretty bad (Aero anyway; Thunder gets a proc to do SOME good).

Plus, a potency 10 dot? :P That's vanilla WoW levels of bad there.

If there's one thing I don't think I could ever get tired of in this game, it's the soundtrack. Their composers for this are phenomenal. Really hope they at least post SOME Arcanist info soon, so we can all get an idea of what specifically they'll bring to the table.

Not really, mostly because sometimes I would have to go through every item in my armoury chest to figure out wtf I could even wear. And this assumes I had an item for the (empty) slot in question for the class I was switching to at the time. Filtering out the items by can/can't wear right...

Aside from taking a while to 100% spiritbond some gear, or so it felt like, did anyone have a problem with getting materia during phase 3? I was trying to figure out if there were bonuses to spiritbond raising (duty finder, levequesting, FATEs) or not, but I couldn't put my finger on it. My...

I was wondering about this, too, because it was making Ifrit's fight a lot harder than it is. (Hellfire is about the only "guaranteed" non-tank damage a decent party will take).

heh, typically every time I healed NPCs on big-brawl quests like the one I mentioned above: I got 3-4 on my ass. When you're level 15, healer, and they deal 10-20 a pop, you die quick if you stand around, and you can't rely on the NPCs to help, either. So with Phase 3 ending, my thoughts on...

The Gridania quest at the Guardian Tree was a pain in the ass as a (pure) Conjurer. By pure, I mean I hadn't done any cross-classing. ;p Took me a while because the NPCs that do the work for you kept dying and everything else wanted to gangbang.Really think they need to dial back the damage...

I think I pissed myself at the entire Genosha sequence, especially the "Fire fire" song starting.

It's like all the good writers for gaming went over to this studio for this project with some of these lines.
