    Yer unlikely to have any pain in ass mats to get, so more or less probably safe to sell. But checking the prices on the MB is generally a good sanity check. If you have something that is listed and seems to be moving at outlandish numbers- might be worth holding on to until you figure out if...

    The drawing is at 8/9 server time on sat. So you likely got tickets for next week. But you can talk to the npcs and check. Or the saucer section in the main menu.

    That doesn't seem likely. To unlock Gold Saucer, the player must complete the It Could Happen to You questline. Players can start the quest by talking to Well-heeled Youth in Ul'dah - Steps of Nald (x9,y9). Players must have completed the Main Scenario Quest: The Gridanian Envoy, The Ul'dahn...

    Its not actual gil. It's fake saucer money- which basically is good for mounts and glams. And i'll hate you if you actually win the grand prize.

    I’d spend some time unlocking the hard dungeons at least, and crystal tower. More options to queue into never hurts.

    Oh for sure, there are quite a few ways to fund venture tokens. Hunt trains take a bit of outside game knowledge/tools- but it's definitely an option.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I basically generate all my venture tokens from GC turnins. Run dungeons -> turnin blue and green loot that doesn't look cool. Buy ventures -> send butlers to get more green and blue loot. Keep the shit that looks rad or sells well.

    Sadly thats ARR for you. It honestly doesn't take that long to get 99, but gathering is one of the few things i like hooking up a controller for. I find mashing x on a ps controller better than mashing num 0 The later expac stuff is time consuming in a completely different way. You can buy...

    I kinda liked the ixal, it's clunky as shit cuz ARR design and that stupid glove. But I wanted the mount, and the story line ended up being pretty good. That said, yeah the xp isn't that hot. But it did the job. I basically leveled my 3 tradeskills to max with beast tribe quests. Cuz fuck...

    yeah everytime you unlock a new job, create a new equipment set. You can hotkey the set list or just make a icon cluster to swap jobs. Then it's just a matter of swapping to new job, equipping and saving.

    GC crafting turnins are a stupid amount of tradeskill xp. You'll have to do some shit to unlock those, but i now have an irrational thing against leves.

    Tradeskills are kinda an interlinked nightmare by design. They give you more or less the same toolset for all the classes and you have to optimize your resources as best you can to make whatever item. If you want to dip your toes in, pick whatever matches up to create, well honestly...

    I don't have the handy pictures up, but once you hit the auto suggest or manually have the newest gear equipped, just save the set again. This also affects whether you want your headgear shown, visor up/down etc.

    For all the noobs wondering about leveling multiple jobs/roles. There is one outlier that may or may not interest you. If you go arcanist- you get to level 2 jobs at the same time. Scholar is a (shield based) healer, and Summoner is a pet/dot DPS class. You'll have to do 2 sets of job...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I'd do 2 different roles personally, just so you don't have to deal with the dps queue all the time. But you'll need to put up with it eventually. Unless you go pure tank/heals. Then yer basically blessed with insta pops most of the time.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I personally did everything in my power to keep my levels close to MSQ quest level while playing. But i'm probably an outlier in that regard. The MSQ quests do more or less cap your level, when you attempt them. But with a few exceptions i liked doing them as close to level and (because i'm...

    I think it’s closer to 20, you have to msq until you get to airship to another city. As far as I remember anyway. Been ages. Unless you chose another job that starts in Uldah.

    If you poop sock hard you can pretty much catch up to current in about a month give or take. But DO NOT do that. This really is not that type of game. There is metric fuck ton of side content to do, but if you rush it all and hammer skip on all the story, you're bound to be disappointed...

    Combo Breaker weekend. Not a live tourney, sadly, but a fuck ton of exhibition matches all weekend for every game under the sun. Streaming on teamsp00ky atm, not sure if other streams. Loot giveaways and whatnot, too.

    Trading would be nice, but I'm not sure this is actually going to be a MP kinda game. They're certainly trying- with all the party centric skill traits, but we'll see. As it stands, with party buff stacking, you could probably do some gross stuff, but it doesn't seem like that's anywhere near...

    Latest patch took a decent chunk outta my fps, but it seems less rapey on mass mobs and FX situtations. Lotsa griping in general chat about the fps hit. Pet AI is much better for Necro's and the general UI sprucing up is appreciated. I'd still love to see how many stacks of dots i'm...

    POTD gives reasonable exp just grinding your way up (down?) the dungeon. Once you finish the 40-50 floor it gives you the option to start at 51, so people just do 51-60 and then reset the save over and over. That set of floors is very fast and easy, gives good exp, and is pretty wipe proof...

    Yeah that shit is depressing. I really did love gloomhaven, i didn't get in on the frosthaven kickstarter at anything other than the $1 level since my current trajectory to finish gloomhaven is a couple years out at best, and i have way too much money tied up in Kingdom Death as is. Oh...
