    Actually Medica is better than Succor in most cases. However, I can probably spam Succor for 20secs straight and still end up at full mana 5secs later, so at the moment it is kinda superior because of that. Contrary to what the original assumptions were on the Scholar role, atm I'd say Scholar...

    Well noticeable is a big word. It helps for sure but it's not a huge deal. Still if you plan on mainly healing, then you should definitely put them into mind. Putting them into int won't do a whole lot on hard content when you can't actually throw dots often/at all, and it only helps when lvling...

    I've healed everything up to the 47 instance. The rough ones I mentionned before are the ones with paralyze early on, Cutter's Cry last boss and Sunken Temple last boss, because you don't get the dispel until 40. You might want to buy consumables to remove it(not sure if shops sell it though and...

    I don't know I played quite a bit but didn't level extremely fast/efficiently, there's a ton of 40+ on my server, Coerthas highlands FATEs are spammed non stop by zergs of 30-40 people and have been since whenever I got there and there's already a bunch of 50s and shit. I definitely don't feel...

    Funny thing about dungeons, starting 30 they're all fairly challenging with cool mechanics and some instant kill don't fail type mechanics and shit. And then you get to 44 and the dungeon is a snoozefest, it's like Halatali/Haukke level(not quite the first 3). Pretty derp. Garuda on the other...

    Dungeon difficulty really picked up after Brayflox, like Temple of Qarn and Cutter's Cry are pretty intense(well the bosses, trash is a snooze fest). Hope it stays like that. Also they have some pretty cool mechanics. Just wish the ground shit would stop hitting me when I'm out of it for half a...

    Not sure if they have a lot of fates, but Coerthas and Mor Dhona are pretty much the higher level areas, you can access them from the shroud. Northern Thanalan is also 40-50, there's a few more areas around the maps but I don't believe they'll have fates(shit like areas around the entrance to...

    It's the lvl 10 main story quest. Just do all the storyquests, they unlock a lot of important features. Also class quests unlock skills and access to other quests. Rest is more or less optional useless sidequests, with a few exceptions.

    Unlocked Scholar, damn it's fairly awful at soloing. Not that much worse than base Arcanist because of Cleric Stance, but still pretty awful, wish one of the 2 pets had an actual autoattack. Tempted to lvl THM to 15 and get Summoner as I assume it'd lvl faster. Also in case people don't know...

    Regardless of the settings, the legacy status had specific rules, which is why I said you needed 3months during the right period, otherwise you're simply a 1.0 player, you get the game for "free" and 15 free days but nothing else. Note that legacy status has nothing to do with legacy servers...
  15. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They do, but only if they're actually legacy. To be legacy you needed to sub for 3months during the right time. Every 1.0 account isn't legacy necessarily.

    You pretty much HAVE to do the story quests as a lot of the game's systems are rewarded from it, stuff like Inn+Leves at 10, Airship at 15, Retainers at like 18 or so, Grand Company(and by extension mounts) and Materia stuff at 20 or more depending and maybe other stuff later on. Your class...

    Best PC RPGS of the last decade

    Don't really consider Dark Souls a RPG, I mean it has RPG elements, but so do every fucking game nowadays, even Call of Duty and shit have xp+progression. Dark Souls is first and foremost an action game, the main point of the game is the combat, not the story(which is fairly inexistent even...

    Linkshells are invite only private chat channels basically, you can be in multiple linkshells. Guilds are named Free Companies(as opposed to Grand Companies which are like reputation factions you get to pick during the story quest around lvl 20). It's explained in the thing you linked btw ^^...

    Just read the first sentence of every paragraph and whatever's bolded and you can get what's being said. Which is basically that RMAH is a good money making tool for Blizzard early on, but as time passes it becomes less interesting since prices drop due to availability, and interest in the game...

    Well Arcanists can also become Scholars, which are healers with pets. Granted the pet is a fairy so that's a turn off for some people, but that's 2+ for your desired class.

    Yeah you do have to start as a combat class and then level to 10(which only takes a couple of hours, maybe more if it's your first time) before you can become a crafting/gathering class. However from that point on, you don't need to level your combat class further if you don't want to, you can...

    Na you're supposed to get in, then it has the start button greyed out and it says Wait for early access to start. If you're getting wrong id/pass, then it's another issue. Make sure your login ID is well that, instead of your email.

    Don't the GC leves NPC give gathering/crafting leves too? I can't remember because like you I didn't do any crafting in P3. I do remember however that you can get SOME seals from crafting/gathering via the GC menu, they have like requests for specific materials, which are updated every now and...

    Your 40 or whatever it is points of str is probably not going to make a large difference anyway and while in theory it could work that way, I haven't seen math actually showing that str provides more EHP than vit. I would have probably gone str anyway on MRD for the threat which I'd value more...

    It's pretty standard for grace period to be 3-5days, which is what this is. You don't really want to wait last day to register though unless you don't feel like playing, plus I don't think saving a dollar worth of sub price is that much of a deal either, but whatever.

    It'd be repetitive as fuck, but dumb not really guess it depends on what you wanna do in the end. I know I'd burn out before I'm done though, I'll definitely lvl a couple more jobs to 50 after Scholar but I don't see myself playing every classes in a row doing the same shit over and over. Would...

    Depends on how it's setup, if it's annoying it'll need resets everytime, if it's smart it'll save your IPs. Generally though if that was the case it'd send you a key to enter to confirm it's you, instead of forcing you to change your pass, so yeah I guess you'll have to do that crap everytime...

    Troll has been considered OP in scrims and shit by pros, it's not really the carry potential, it's the pushing the ultimate offers, it's absolutely ridiculous to push towers with, basically, if glyph isn't up, tower is going to go down before you can get there to defend. Wouldn't be surprised if...

    If you put in a PS3 code, I'd assume you can only play with the PS3 version. While beta codes worked on either, they were beta codes and iirc they said you'd need to buy both the PS3 and the PC version if you wanted to play on both. Might be wrong but I'd think that's normal. As for 1.0, that's...

    Hmm no one knows, there's gonna be the patch they added before P4 I assume which was fairly small, and then probably some bug fixes in the day0 so probably won't be too big but yeah no one knows.

    You can find a torrent of the P4 client somewhere I believe, think I saw a reddit post about it. The P4 client is the same as launch(probably will need to patch before but that's quick). P3 or earlier client won't work however.

    I think he means the part where it says Damage/Toughness only in the sumup, but I think that's fine since that's well, the sum. It doesn't take into account the proc which is definitely great. I do hope like someone said there's a necro class hidden reveal coming too. This I would like, and...

    There's abilities off the GCD, however you still need to wait for the animations for them so there's a disconnect between what the UI shows(you can cast) and what you can actually do. To take a concrete example, Arcanists have an off the GCD nuke called Energy Drain. Now in wow for example...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well I wish they added a new interesting class. Paladin when they already have Monk is like kinda redundant. They could have added Consecration to Monk at 70 and add something at least interesting. I mean maybe it's the colors and the themes of the spells but everything felt very much like Monk...
