    So for some reason Arcanists get a heal now at lvl 4. Still nothing else for healing before 22(get rez), so not sure what to make of it. The heal seems to be the exact copy of Cure too, direct heal, same cast time and I believe same potency after the buffs(400).

    Why would they be up 10-15mins before they're supposed to be up. If anything they'll be late. Also you can see server status in the launcher, see that red pinkish circle thing? When it turns yellow some servers are up, and when it turns green all servers are up.

    During P3 the queues on the JP servers while the US servers were down weren't too bad(and that was JP prime time), so don't know maybe their servers can handle load decently with the zones and shit. Guess we'll see tomorrow how it goes, playing on some euro servers with friends though so might...

    Job isn't a class, it's Job/Mainclass(so archer), subclass(CNJ I believe it used to be but think they're changing that) and one more(which I have no idea what it is but let's say pugilist). So yeah it's not just main+sub, there's one more everytime, the exact combos will be datamined and posted...

    Teikoku means empire I believe so sounds more like something to do with the Garland Empire stuff, those magitek badasses. Could be music made in advance or could be for like the lvl 50 story quest or some shit, guess we'll see.

    You can only pull abilities from 2 other classes, one is the sub needed to level the job, other is arbitrary, full list will be up when the P4 is running since atm they're a bit outdated. Still good for leveling lower level stuff though and potentially good even up to 40ish since job abilities...

    Since they got letters about NDA breaking and shit for the benchmark datamining, I guess they'll wait until the servers are up to post the datamined info from the new client. Also the guy said he was double checking to see if they changed values adresses or whatever the fuck, in case they were...

    Preorder code website isn't up yet, it'll be up on the 20th. For now there's nothing to do, other than trying to figure which account to apply it to for when the website goes up. You'll get a mail or whatever, probably will be posted here then too.

    I think they said they're making a new system to handle all that shit together in one nifty place instead of the mess it currently is, not sure when though. I still have to figure out which of my square enix account is the right one to apply my preorder code to it but have to wait until tomorrow...

    As far as I know, there's only one major event that fails a large number of side quests. There's a few others that fail on specific events but mostly it's that one big event you want to be careful of, and they actually tell you something about how you need to make sure you're ready. Story...

    You get all 6, finish the game then you can do a special post game dungeon and when you finish that, it unlocks their true power which is scaling damage based on the amount of mobs you killed, at least from what I read. They end up the best weapons in the game(at least for characters you've been...

    AF armor isn't endgame armor anyway, at least unless you can upgrade it. You get it as rewards for your class quests, so while the chest is 50, everything else is lower in increments of 5levels. Don't know how you could dislike the pointy hats though.

    Hmm I don't remember it working in main cities in P3. It worked if you were inside an inn(which unlocks at the same time as leves, lvl 10-12 depending on when you do the quest) but it also works in any village/town/questhub outside the main cities that has a large aetheryte crystal(so anywhere...

    Vanguard has all the right stats for a starting item, but all the wrong amounts. If it blocked 50-60, added 1more health regen and added a bunch more health I think it'd be a great item, or if it disassembled but then a lot of heroes would run around with vanguards, which I guess is fine to an...

    Finished the game, was around lvl 70 or something even though I was skipping most of the trash fight, mostly just using xp food before every boss and I grinded for 15mins around lvl 30.

    Well on Hard I can actually die on a boss fight, I think any less than that and even if you eat a Mystic Arte without blocking you still won't die so that kind cheapens the experience. It's just that fight is retarded cause it's a solo fight and the game really doesn't work very well solo, duo...

    Meh, playing the Milla story, the fight againsthas to be a joke, I spent a couple of hours trying to beat it using various techniques on hard and eventually had to drop difficulty as I couldn't get her down under ~40%. She has almost instant attacks that hit me for 30 to 80% of my life(the big...

    If anything, (one of) the counter to Techies is prophet. Ranged hero with a way to destroy trees, a way to grant vision even on high ground and trash units to scout out/proxy kill stuff, yeah no. The solution is clockwerk or stormspirit, with the addition of Naix is the draft allows. Still...

    A lot of the cosmetics are fairly dumb looking but it's still a great idea. One thing I dislike as I got further in the game is you unlock most of your linked skills early on and later on it doesn't seem you get many anymore. Like out of the shit on the 2nd sphere I think I got 2 new combos...

    I don't know about the balance patch post TI3, I guess Bat and Wisp might get some nerfs again, maybe Dark Seer or Naix too, but I feel it wasn't like the previous TI where they were heroes that everyone picked and were the only thing that mattered(naga, morph, lycan etc in their time)...

    A few of the early quests have to be soloed, basically story instances and class instances. Most of them take like 3-5mins though and I personally like them but you could in theory skip them until you have some free time solo, iirc there's like 3 or 4 story instances and like 1class instance at...

    Furion's so good he has about a 40% winrate in the tournament if you don't count Alliance games. Whatever nerf him or not, probably won't matter unless he gets a remake to his toolset or something, he's not picked because he's absurdly strong but simply because he's the only hero that does what...

    Builds are what you make of them. You can certainly use only 1 or 2 skills and beat the game, which is how it was in D2 too. You can instead pick more and still perform the same and enjoy the game more. With that said, the first playthrough doesn't get you to very high level so yeah might be...

    The problem with their push in game2 and what they recognized was an issue is they started 5manning more or less at like 10mins, so at 20mins they were all lvl 6-9. That's not good levels, that's actually awful as fuck, but that's the result of 5man pushing without getting kills(had Alliance...

    I like the game overall but there's so many little issues that make it annoying, like how in Manual mode you jump with Up instead of X+Up, so using the Up+Circle Arte is annoying as shit as you have to press Up before circle(otherwise it does the normal arte) but if you don't time it well you...

    Well random isn't necessarily the best thing if you don't have the mechanical skills, even though it does let you see more heroes. I'd just play against bots for 30-40games anyway, full bot games or coop games. You're going to get yelled at even in coop games against bots though. You're going to...

    But that's the problem of banning vs alliance, sure Bat is crazy etc, but if they have fp, you either give them wisp, bat or lone druid. You only have 2 bans and they don't have to ban any of these themselves if they get first pick. And to be honest giving Bulldog syllabear is easily as bad as...

    You can talk fine, what you can't do is send tells to people outside the instance or people sending you tells from outside. Guildchat(FC and Linkshell alike) somehow works fine though, and obviously so does party chat.

    They're boring to watch when you've watched a bunch of these games. They are however not like ezmode and require a lot of precision to execute well, or to even get to the point where you can efficiently splitpush. Alliance just played that very well to their strengths, chose the fights they...

    Uninstalling yes, it's an entirely new client for P4. For the codes I'm not too sure, I got a pre order code right away I think it is, but I don't think I got an actual account key yet, from GMG. The website to register preorder isn't actually up yet though so atm it's no big deal.

    You can only buy up to lvl 15 items or whatever though, so that wouldn't get you very far, plus it's expensive. Actually crafting the items also give crafting xp.

    As far as what I found out when you want to turn in a quest, you need to be within level range to have been able to accept it in the first place. That's how I assume it works since I tried a few things and couldn't turn it in these situations, but you can turn in low level combat quests from...

    Fnatic plays Morphling often and Era gets out of control pretty often too. To be honest, after all the buffs, he's fucking strong.

    12 or so, it's part of the main story quest. Only takes a few hours of playing to get there and it is definitely a good advice, assuming it will work like between beta phases(and it's very likely), since it means you'll have quite a bunch of leves ready for release if you want to solo, level...

    Well neither side can finish the game without risking losing it, so yeah. I don't even know what DK is waiting for at this point. Maybe they should all sell an item and buy 5 necrobooks and just suicide them on the rax over and over.
