    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I just looked it up and it looks like I still have two dozen or so quests left to get to "The Ultimate Weapon" which I assume ends ARR? I've been trying to just blast through it the last two days while still reading the text/watching the vids, but I'm gonna have to just take a break. I just want...

    Lol oh god. I still have a long way to go with ARR?

    I wish for once, these ARR quests would just be direct instead of so roundabout, as if they are stalling you constantly. It's so maddening. I am actually glad this game doesn't really have alts, because there's no way I'd ever, ever, ever do ARR again. Please tell me I'm almost done after...

    Nothing worse than all these people with names like "Duty Commenced" and shit. I'm still progessing the MSQ. Just did garuda. Hoping to be out of ARR soon... I have had the leveling roulette and the guildhests for a while, and then also have pvp, which I don't really plan on doing. I only got...

    Ugh I was so happy thinking I found a way to turn off fate music specifically. Nope, disabled all music entirely. FML. Please tell me there is some option to just disable fate and not everything else, like I did with combat music and mount music? That's the whole point... I'm enjoying the...

    Yeah I'm having a rough time figuring out what to do. Because I want to explore plenty more classes, but I'm already out of space in several slots. I don't appreciate them separating healing stat damage and dps stat damage for int casters. Like, why? A big reason I level'd Sum/Scholar was...

    Damn that's cool. I've just been using shared hotbars on the far right of my screen, but it sucks that they take up space all the time. Where are you getting so many poetics from? So far all I'm seeing is 20 per dungeon. Paladin level 50 set looks so sick. I was expecting them all to look...

    Why in the world do they do silly shit like have an ability called Energy Drain on Summoner that generates Aetherflow, and the same exact ability on Scholar that spends Aetherflow. Fucks up all your brain hotkeys. I want Energy Drain / Aetherflow generator on F, but then it makes no sense that...

    I saw another Paladin that was only level 45, but was wearing the level 50 armor? How does that work? I inspected them and it looked like it was the actual armor, and not a glamour?

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Summoner specifically won't let me continue on to get the ilvl90 armor. I got the level 45 armor, but even that required more MSQ progress than the Paladin level 45/50 armor. And it looks like it's the same thing with Scholar too. Can't accept the next quests till more MSQ is done, whereas I did...

    Why is it that I was able to max my Paladin quests right away, and get the ilvl 90 level 50 armor, but every other class seems to require massive MSQ progress? Is Paladin uniquely the only one that just lets you do it all right away or something?

    What do I need to know about my fighting chocobo. It has 1 skill point so far. Are those easily respeccable? Should I basically spec it into dps? How does it level etc.

    I ran into one of the poetics vendors. Are there more of them and/or is there like some recommended way to spend them? Or should I just buy gear I see that I need?

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Lol reminds me exactly of my ban. I got a complete ban on my Bard that at the time was worth like $2k, 3rd best equipped Bard on the server after 2 FoH bards, with no previous warnings whatsoever, for saying some teenage edgy shit that was common back then to a Shaman that wouldn't SoW me on one...

    I decided I preferred p99 at the end of the day. It's a place I know will be around forever. So I like knowing whenever my EQ itch comes, I can just log straight in with minimal hassle, and work on my characters or whatever, and there will be a decent population. So far leveling has been a blast...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Even Verant would ban you in 1999 for exploiting pathing. Most GMs had a 3 strike policy though and sometimes you could fake being clueless for a mere warning on your first go, but it wouldn't work on the 2nd one. I remember it was very common to exploit the pathing of certain solo camps back...

    Hopefully they can just void the key, since it is still unused, and still refund me. And then I guess I'll just go buy an eu key from cdkeys dot com. God damn borders and shit. I'm always dealing with this shit with games, being an American that has moved back and forth between the US and the...

    I'm worried they're not gonna do shit since I had to click the "unlock activation key" to get the key in the first place to type it in to redeem. Since that code is now "unwrapped." But thanks for the link, I'll send one there too. Japan is so goddamn baffling. All their tech is like 20 years...

    Alright I sent an email. Hopefully to the correct place, since there are about 6 different URLs. Annoyingly, it isn't on sale anymore, so yeah. I ended up submitting a ticket at pep-sqex-us.zendesk I guess. I think? who knows with the amount of URLS there are. Edit: omg it totally isn't the...

    Well that's nice. I somehow bought the US activation complete edition and not the EU, so it doesn't work. my god their account services SUCK DICK. The fact that I had to create 2 different accounts and kept getting rerouted to different shit. Why the fuck did it accept my EU billing? I swear I...

    I wasn't aware I was allowed to go to HW whatsoever until I finished the stupid ARR? I bought complete, I was just being a nerd min maxing my free time. I'll probably activate now, cos of gil gap. Regardless, I still have to do this ARR shit. Like, can't even get new Summoner spells cos it...

    Huh? Why would being on the trial make you take longer to get through ARR? I've been leveling different classes and learning the game. I haven't just only been doing main quests. I've been doing fates I come across and levequests and mining and dungeons etc. I'm not going to just skip...

    Damn. Reached the gil cap, I guess? Only 300k on trial. They're really pushing me to activate, with no bank space via retainers, no marketboard, and 300k max coins lol. Guess my min maxing my free time ends here. Is there something I can spend gil on that I'll want later?

    I can't seem to understand what mobs have stun diminishing returns and what don't? Sometimes it seems like I can only ever stun a mob twice, and then never again? Do the diminishing returns ever reset, or is it just twice per mob and then that's it? Speaking of bust sizes. I noticed that the...

    MQ2 was huge even 12 years ago. I remember when I started the Firiona Vie FoH guild, there was a lot of controversy over the rule that we not use it whatsoever. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that a quarter of the Live playerbase uses it. I also won't be surprised when they just blanketly...

    If my character didn't look so damn good and the animations weren't so good I would have already peaced the fuck out.

If I wanted to read a fantasy book, I'd go read a fantasy book. 4 lines of text to read, 4 lines of text to read, 4 lines of...

    Don't know how much longer I can push myself to do ARR. It is pure garbage. There have been like 2 good quests and 2 good pieces of story, and the rest is super monotonous and tedious and slow. Why does the MSQ involve SO MANY tedious tasks that don't matter? Please for the love of god let it be...

    I'm having fun, but honestly it's making me want to just go play ESO more and more. Seems like so far, everything I'm doing is done better by ESO. I know FF14 doesn't really pickup till later expansions though. I just wish getting there was faster.

    What frustrates me is the paradoxes that exist with trying to recapture a classic Everquest experience. I wanted to make a Sham, but looking at important Shaman gear and how expensive it is made me give that up really quick. And that's because there's a huge amount of Shamans, because people...
