There is a detailed reddit post that sums up the patch notes since launch: (Patch Notes, Universal Summary) : ffxiv It's a lot of stuff, granted a lot is kinda obsolete so you run it once and don't do it again, but it's pretty nice to have so much stuff to do as a returning player. I've been...

If you mean buying a horse from the asian side, you can buy one in mirage island with whatever currency it is now, or you can buy one from the NPCs that give the quest on the human side(obviously you have to go in enemy territory to do that, so it's a risky trip and you kinda need to know where...

Video dump in case you missed the live letter, has rogue/ninja using random skills(nothing new there), the 3 new dungeons and the Shiva arena:

Bunch of classes get their last cross class skill at 34 actually, Quelling Strikes for archer, Blood for Blood for lancer, Mercy Stroke for Marauder, so yeah. Bump at 26 for same reason, especially Swiftcast for Thaumaturge. Bump at 30 from people who unlocked the job and stopped there. Massive...

Tech demo of FFXV, shitty quality from the niconico stream I think, maybe they'll release an official one later:

Yeah I didn't until a few weeks ago but finally caved in and bought one to play Bravely Default and Etrian Odyssey IV/Untold and don't regret it. Need to grab a few more games but it's a really good console for old school stuff like that. I don't think they'll do a main line FF on real...

There's Bravely Default but that's on 3DS.

Hmm I don't remember exactly, but pretty sure it was more like 15hours or so. Which is still short but it was a low budget game for a low price, so I didn't expect that much anyway and it was very enjoyable. I replayed the game once or twice too so that added value. I assume the 2nd one will...

Yeah it's a bit different than the last Might and Magic X that was released, combat felt a bit closer to a FPS of some sort, you could play it kinda actiony, where you attack then walk back before the enemy attack and keep repeating to kite them. Attacks are weird too in the sense they're based...

There was this too: They also showed some Bravely Second gameplay as well as the old(well from last week) trailer. They showed a few new classes, one is a mage that combined element+form to create spells that do various things, for example Element+Mist makes it an aoe that does high damage...

Perfectly valid item on Lina lategame with good farm. She can outcarry a lot of heroes just because of her retarded range and attackspeed, and she will 1vs1 almost every other carry in the game with an agh laguna. Only heroes that do well would be like PL(hard to target right one, if he's even...

Personal housing is pretty garbage and a really quick rushed job, but I didn't care much about it so doesn't matter too much to me. I assume with the backlash, 2.4 housing might be a lot better too. Lots of cool changes other than that, besides the stupid gamepad bug that seems to be really bad...

Yeah Coerthas is probably the biggest zone in FFXIV and it's fucking ridiculously large. Don't know about EQ, but it takes about 10mins on mount to run from one point around the map and back, and all of it is heavily populated, has points of interests, cool looking stuff, caves that add a decent...

Healing with a pad is kinda rough in 8man. It's doable for sure but like, it's not easy. Selecting players and shit is kinda slow since you can't really just click the player you want, you need to rotate through the roster with the up/down D pad. In many fights though all you do is target the...

"At the following time, in order to accompany patch 2.38, we will be performing maintenance on all Worlds. During this period, FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn will be unavailable." So yeah, not really a secret. Though they've been more than silent about what will actually be in the patch...

I'd say it has more to do with fast travel. You only travel to new zones once on foot, after that you always TP there. You don't memorize zone positions compared to each other or how they connect because you don't need to walk for 30minutes to get somewhere. There's also as I pointed out the...

Hmm, all shroud zones are forests, all thanalan zones are deserts, all la noscea zones are islands/seaside stuff, they all connect to each other at the zone line by showing where you're going. There's a fair distance between them on the world map though, which implies you travel when you cross...

Well 2.38 should be next week and 2.4 with coil 3+Shiva(I think that's the content) should be about a month after that so like 5-6weeks yeah. Though I see a lot of people also complaining how the reward isn't worth it or how they have nothing to do cause they cleared coil 2 months ago so eh...

Chrono doesn't affect Rubick if you steal it. Doesn't affect Void either though, but he doesn't get the movespeed bonus nor the additional bash damage procs. Also of note, Chrono automatically reveals anything frozen in it. Good for ganking stealthers. It has a few weird interactions with...

Well it's the day of the weekly reset so there's more people doing stuff than the other days, but yeah I don't know, I assume they have a bunch of ghost servers but the ones I've been on were decently populated(moogle) to greatly populated(ultros). Like lots of people in town and people in...

20bucks only? Wasn't BG:EE like 50 at first? Sounds great, even though I'm not sure when I'll find the time to play this, will be a good filler. No release date though so who knows.

Iirc there's a couple more than that that do nothing. There's just more than you need in the world cause some are optional and you need a certain amount to progress the story. Can use them as full heals I guess.

Well yeah obviously that's the problem, that's what makes high end raiding such a niche thing, the time commitment and finding the right people. I don't wanna bother with that shit anymore either, so I don't. I'm fine with not being able to do 2nd turn until they add 3rd coil and add Echo to 2nd...

Maybe he means bosses. A bunch have like high dmg/instant kill mechanics, it's more annoying when it's the tank that gets hit. Though, most of them a tank will live through just fine, so it's not really a big deal. Other than that it's just generaly awareness tanking stuff. Stuff on the ground...

Well it's kinda like every game since wow, tanks pull so you kinda need to know where you're going. Worst case you get someone else to show you where to go, not that many instances have multiple ways and shit. On the raiding comments, well Coil is designed for a static group pretty much...

Overheal generates threat, same amount as normal healing. This is why Medica is such a shitty spell if you use it poorly, it generates a fuckton of threat. Also why you spam medica even with everyone at full health to get gold reward on hunts(assuming you're in a group and do need to tag the mob...

Overrides, any weapon with Tenebrium damage is considered Tenebrium(so if you add tenebrium, it now uses the tenebrium skill regardless).

Interesting that they changed item usage restrictions. I totally see why, I guess it means now trolls will only be able to get the courier killed with the items or brick the courier with branches(since you can't remove them, courier becomes useless). Seems like a change for the better though.

Oh I love RPGs, but I don't think there's 8-9 of them, or I missed some. Bravely Default, the 2 etrian, Fire Emblem and then what? Pokemon I guess but no interest in pokemon, and zelda but not like jrpg really, more like zelda. With Bravely Second and EOU2(and potentially EOU3 if they do that...

Actually bought mine like 2weeks ago. Not that many games I was interested in and the price never fucking goes down here in europe. Been playing it a lot though during that time, I finished Bravely Default and almost done with Etrian Odyssey 4. Have EOU and I'll probably pick up the zelda, but...

Yeah multi is probably like ME3, its own thing. I played like once I think and didn't care about it, and they said they used a different team to do the multi anyway so it's not taking from the single player experience, probably the same for DA:I. Looked pretty garbage to me, if I wanted to play...

Hmm you don't have the what's his name aoe dot spread skill? Wanna say Bane but that might be the SMN nuke instead I haven't played the class in a while. Only thing you do in dungeons is stack dots on one mob then spread them, and if the mob you're targetting doesn't have dots anymore, then it's...

Do you mean a focus unit frame? Cause I don't see why you'd need Target of Target on a DPS class, unless you're casting through the tank, which I guess is nice if you don't want to manually click shit but is a good way to dot the wrong shit too if he mistarget before firing an ability or...

Well there's a lot more to grind than a single class though. Even assuming you don't want to do crafting/gathering, you still need a bunch of sub classes for cross skills. And then it's fairly typical wow-esque where most of the game starts at cap, rather than the leveling experience. If you...

Rogue mechanics are definitely not very intuitive, the scaling AP cost of sneak in combat, the lack of clarity of the effects or wether or not they stack(backstab+guerilla), the fact you can resneak over and over and so on, it's just weird mechanics. I did some research when I started mine cause...

Guerilla is double damage. You pay 150% of the AP for 200% of the damage, it's always good. Granted with daggers the ap/damage ratio is a lot shittier, but still good, only Bully(conditional) and Glass Cannon offer more damage for a talent. Unless it's 50% and they didn't update the description...

Well that's kinda the problem, if you don't sneak, rogues are garbage. You have to sneak and have to have guerilla. I don't see how a Death Lord matters either, since you're stealthed at the end of the turn, or should be. Unless they turn around to target something behind them(bad positionning)...

Maybe a bit later than 15 but not too far, Hunter's Edge guy just outside is basically first thing you see in the zone and stocks a lot of legendaries, homestead eventually has a vendor that stocks a decent amount too. Just doing these 2 every level is fine to gear up almost entirely in...

Oh yeah that's what I meant but like back then, you couldn't do that shit at all. You had to dismiss your companion to mount(any mount, including chocobo), and then you had to resummon it whenever you wanted. Now you can just mount it without the constant unsummon/resummon. Made it annoying as...
