lol I had been wondering why I didn't see a weapon to purchase with poetics when I bought my level 50 gear. Thanks!

Actually, wasn't it like one week apart or something? I remember that I was beta testing both WoW and EQ2. Early on, I decided that EQ2 was just horrible, and decided to spend the majority of my time in the WoW beta. I ended up buying both games, but I spent a lot more time in WoW than EQ2...

I was running with the gear that they gave me when I created the Samurai because I didn't think I saw SAM gear in the Ironworks. I obviously just missed it. I'll go back and get the Ironworks gear. I've got a ton of poetics just sitting there from all the stuff I had to do to finish ARR, and...

As a 52 Samurai, is there anything I should be spending my poetics on?

I'm in a similar situation as yourself as I just started Heavensward for the first time. The only reason I bought ShB is because I got in on the pre-order (like literally the day before it stopped being a "pre" order lol). I wanted what ever it gave me for pre-ordering. Other than that, I...

I joined your discord just now. At work, so won't be on there right now much. Just wanted to get it connected up to my account.

I've done about 22 of the MSQ so far in Heavensward, gotten a chocobo that can fly, and started working on the quests to unlock flying. I took some time to try out the Machinist and Astrologian jobs. I still prefer the Samurai over all the other jobs although I have dabbled a little here and...

I haven't done a LS before, so I will figure that out and give it a shot.

Is it wrong that I fucking love this thread because of the fallen videos and not the game LOL. Literally, we could wake up tomorrow and find out that Brad decided to finally open up alpha to all the idiots (myself included) that pledged for it, and I would be like meh no thanks. At this...

If I ever catch up to you guys in ShB, I will join up with yall (assuming you need a melee dps at that time). God only knows how long it will be until I get there lol. Speaking of which, my FC imploded the other day. I logged in, and there was no FC anymore. I was like WTF lol. I tracked...

Keep those bots over there. We only have about 20 to 40 people in queue every evening when I logon. The only time it spiked up to about 1500 was the Sunday after the release. That was it. Nothing since then.

I love how both shoes say, "Fuck it! I'm outta here!"

i finished the post-ARR content tonight, and holy shit! that was like an hour long set of cut scenes. it was amazing!

July update ... we got trees, climbing animations, and sparkly graphics. Ok.... Someone stop the presses! Get all the Bobs on the line from the hundreds of other MMORPGs on the market. Pantheon has great news to share with them. They learned how to make trees, animate a character, and...

Ah, so they are stretching each expansion over a two year time period each time. Sounds like a good plan to keep people occupied between expansions.

Sadly my brother is going to force me to play WoW Classic with him. I pretty much hate WoW these days, but it's the only thing that my brother and I have to do together now that we quit EverQuest (after a very unhealthy almost two decades of that cesspool).

*** Edited.. add number 7 and 8 *** Having just completed the ARR stuff and 90% of the post ARR MSQ content (pre-HW) for the first time ever, here is my perspective on the whole experience which could be applicable to other new FFXIV players picking up the game for the first time ever. First...

/(0.0)\ ..... OH... MY... GOD

Oh yeah definitely. The ending of 2.4 and then 2.5 were worth the grind through the post ARR content. I just got fatigued with the quest grind, but I am looking forward to seeing what transpires in these last 16 quests that make up 2.55 and lead in to Heavensward.

Yeah I finished patch 2.5 this weekend, so I am 16 quests away from starting Heavensward. I got really burned out on the MSQ quest grind, and spent all Sunday just doing anything but MSQ quests lol. I got my alchemy from 24 up to 32, played some on my other classes. I'll get back on the...

I made it through patch 2.2, and got about half way through patch 2.3 last night. I am hoping to finish up 2.3 tonight. Just about 55 more quests to go until Heavensward. Once I get to Heavensward, I am definitely going to slow back down and do the things I really enjoy for a while...

I typically go in to each new dungeon telling the people that I am new to the game, never done that dungeon, and welcome helpful tips. I know I suck at the game, so I welcome advice. Half of that is just my old man syndrome of not being able to remember which button to push at the right time...

Ok. That makes sense.

I just went out to the FFXIV wiki and read through the patch 2.2 and 2.3 journal entries. I don't plan to do that once I get to Heavensward because I like not knowing what is going to happen, but I figure the filler stuff in 2.1 through 2.3 would be better of reading ahead of time, so I can...

I made it through patch 2.1 post-ARR quests, and started on patch 2.2 post-ARR quests. I have to say at this point, I am feeling the quest fatigue setting in, but I know if I just push through another 78 quests, I will get to start on Heavensward. I might take a break from the quest grind...

So, that fat chocobo mount we got in America by buying something on Amazon a while back is being offered in China, but... they have a LOT harder stipulation to get one. They have to eat a boatload of food at KFC. They only get the code given to them AFTER they consume all the food and drink in...

The podcast was really good. I look forward to listening to the next one.

Maybe I am crazy, but I enjoyed the story through out ARR. I'm glad that I didn't skip it, but I can see where someone who is more about the end game would get annoyed with having to do a few hundred quests to be able to start the current expansion's content. As for the GCD, it doesn't bother...

Oh trust me. I want to get to Heavensward bad. I'm going to be hitting those post ARR MSQ quests hard after work each day this week lol.

It took all weekend, but I finally finished ARR. The fights, cutscenes, ending, etc etc etc... This was nothing like any other MMORPG has ever done. I mean really. I don't know how anybody goes back to any other MMORPG after playing FFXIV. The others aren't even in the same ballpark. I...

Well I made it to 49 Ninja tonight, and I've been hitting the msq hard to get ARR done, but if I'm reading this right in the wiki, I still have like 109 more msq quests to go before I get to start Heavensward lol... OMG... (>.<) The story though has been great with a twist I definitely did not...

I never thought I would see the day when someone would choose being a Dancer over a Ninja. I mean.... really. NINJA... who wouldn't want to be a NINJA?! lol sigh

I keep meaning to do fishing... it's my lowest level tradeskill by far.

Granted, it's been many, many years, so my memory can be off. That being said, I remember playing a dwarven paladin back in the day before any expansions, and it was a damn fine tank. I remember taking the path that gave me the sleep ability or what ever it was called. I got in a duel with...

My brother and I will play WoW Classic when it finally is opened up for good, but for ONLY ONE REASON. JUST ONE. ONE. To kill noobs on the escort quest going from Sentinel Hill to Moonbrook. Our day one strat: Choose a PvP server Create an Undead Rogue Level up to 30ish Travel to...

I think I have fallen in the 30-50 rut I have read about where you keep trying a different class. I got pugilist up to 31 Monk. Then I tried rogue and got it up to 45 Ninja. Ended up doing Thurgalist to 10ish. I really liked the way tanks looked in the game, so I have been working on a...

I just started FFXIV recently, and I have to say that the idea of being behind is a misnomer when it comes to that game. The game IS the story in the game, so the typical MMO design we have been taught for the past two decades of "the game starts at max level" does not apply to FFXIV in any way...

Sony Online Entertainment's "Starwars Galaxies" shut down on December 15, 2011. Bioware's "Starwars: The Old Republic" started on December 20, 2011. It happens.

Is that what Smed has been working on? Holy shit Batman!

With any luck, Daybreak Games will sell off which ever subsidiary owns the rights to EverQuest to a company that will actually give two shits about developing the IP further rather than spend all their time and resources making rainbow rabbits.
