    The chocobo run is slower but you can afk. If you're on PC and especially on a SSD though, the Limsa way is like 50secs faster or something, which is quite a bit.

    It's not THAT much of a problem or they would have made it a priority, but yeah they'll eventually have to do something. With the New Game + shit they might actually have some new tech they can use to do stuff that lets people temporarily skip the MSQ or whatever. That said if you were a cynic...

    You can transpose, but you also shouldn't hesitate to swiftcast Fire I. If you're REALLY late with the swiftcast delay you won't make it, but if you're like 1.5-2secs left you can easily make it, and it way less disruptive than transpose, especially if you get lucky and proc a firestarter. Also...

    Na it's like 45mins then another 15-20mins with a break between the 2 iirc. You can also go afk midway as long as you don't have autoscrolling(can turn it off).

    I'd think getting into Canada might be a bit easier for people too than the US. I don't mind too much regardless since I'm not going anywhere, but China TI sounds kinda meh with how the chinese public is.

    On the trust question from earlier, you do get materias from the chests(like the 1st chest after 1st boss), but you don't get them as random drops, or I was super unlucky. So not worth it for materias pretty much although I guess if you bot it you could get like 6 an hour or something.

    I did the 80 dungeon with trusts but honestly can't remember anything about loot. My trusts are 1dungeon away from 80 so I'll tell you in a couple of hours if you don't find an answer. I assume droprates are massively reduced however. Generally the main issue would be, launch it in admin mode...

    I do this shit all the time, how else am I going to learn how to play the class in 8man. Mind you I put a minimum of effort into knowing the class first, but my first Titania MT run was... interesting. I was trying to remember when the tank busters were and got hit by the very first pink aoe...

    I don't know every game that had that also had bots who could break it cause it was implemented poorly enough. Yeah he just retarded. You're supposed to taunt during the cast, unless it's one of the few tankbusters that retarget at the end(there's a couple iirc). For innocence you definitely...

    Probably Spriggan. I believe bots just made all their new accounts on that since it's Preferred and new(so they had no queues), but now they're shitting up the server.

    Yeah anything works. You can spam a random key+mouse to get it done even faster too. Honestly shit's really pointless so it's good they don't abuse it. It's neat visually but otherwise sucks. I kinda wish they had more of the Alexander one where you have to press the button to jump off, but...

    I mentionned it a long while ago but yeah the turn automatically shit will make you turn if you try to use skills while running sometimes, UNLESS you use legacy controls, then it works fine. It got me to switch. I couldn't be bothered mouse snapping backwards to hit a GCD right as I was getting...

    Aapoak, in west caliban in The Tempest. Have to fish eyes mooch for it during certain hours and weather, but it's a shit ton of scrips. Remember collector gloves.

    Oh didn't notice it had weird conditions. Made me check the tracker webpage though and seems it's updated with 5.0 so I'll just check that out to go fish it whenever. I'll try to get it tomorrow still but if I don't it's ok I'll stock a few for later, even not starred it should pay a good amount...

    Oh shit I got the big fish starred collectible, I need to craft some gathering gear and get that shit done. 1990 white scrips per catch, need to catch a few of these fucks before the reset tomorrow. Ironically also got the first alchemy starred turn in at the same fucking time, so I'll try to...

    Oh I see it's a real bot, thought it was like pseudo afk bot. Meh I enjoy the leveling process for the most part, I just don't like this trust lvling shit, once I'm done with these 2 chars leveling these guys I won't touch the others until they nerf xp/add a challenge log to it, shit takes too...

    I don't bot them but I kinda afk through the dungeons on half the runs, just move to next pack every now and then. The bosses are annoying though, if you don't play tank, you kinda have to do them, not sure how your friend bots them. Like you get hit by too many stack vulns and just die to...

    It's not that ACT gets you banned, it doesn't. It's that it's technically against the ToS, and while it's tolerated, using it to diss other people isn't(well to their face at least). It isn't really different than the usual harassment rules though, don't be a dick to people because if they...

    Yeah, I did the raids right at release, smooth clears, only wiped to the "ah gotcha that's an instant wipe" mechanics. But then I was checking some streams a few hours later and people were dying over and over in E4N and E2N for example, and it looked awful. The first fight is stupidly easy...

    You can do normals with min ilvl, nothing hits really that hard, unless you're trying to solo tank last boss or whatever. Extremes you need the ilvl to enter but that's about it, shit doesn't hit hard either. Honestly pretty sure you can hit 80, run each 80 dungeons once, buy a ring and then...

    I mean there's some story, but not that much interesting stuff, the filler part is more how they'll ask you to go gather some shit to do the thing, while later they just go "ok let's use this thing I had in my pocket to do this" and you just do the stuff instead, if that makes sense. There's a...

    You should have plenty of "new" dungeons to clear at 50 if you want a change of pace, 50 was crazy with dungeon releases, motherfuckers were doing 3 dungeons every patch so there's 17dungeons at cap or whatever. A few are story so can't do without MSQ but most should be playable right away. The...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Cleared the new raid, very easy on normal but still fun mechanics. Fights are pretty cool. I like the change to gear drops too, way less cancer, 8drops that include every slot in every floor means you can get chest or legs in one week and that it won't take 25runs of each floor for it. Sadly I'm...

    Not surprising, although the Art of War mp cost reduction is a very welcome change for QoL dungeons.

    HoH is shit, caps at 69 xp so it scales like garbage past 71-72. Just dungeons, FATEs during queues, and roulettes. Queues are pretty quick even for DPS atm, at least on my datacenter I often get 10mins or less queue, sometimes only 1-2mins for ShB dungeons.

    In the reddit post about it there were apparently quite a few chinese comments about how disgusting it was, with one comparing it to kissing a morbol, so yeah. I mean vegan shit can be good, but mushroom burger definitely doesn't sound like it. I'm biased since I don't really like mushrooms to...

    Well tanks share gear so being geared on 2 is more or less the same as one, besides the lvling. Just need an additional weapon but you can just use 10tokens to buy it. She is, but not very much so. Just mistakes are most costly on it, if you fuck up tethers you can kill someone else too, if too...

    I mean you still have over 2 weeks to be ready for Savage if that's what you want, it's not like there's a big hurry to run EX fights asap(although clear rate in pubs tends to go down over time I guess).

    Oh they love their twists, there's a twist every other patch, which is why you can easily get spoilers on the story. Not a big issue if you don't care but kinda sucks if you do. And yeah post ARR is super long. The quest themselves are fairly short, but there's still a shit ton of them, and a...

    They were just a dot before too, just a dot that could somehow be removed because the boss spammed too many dots(because their mitigation didn't seem to work on that) or cleaved them.
  34. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They did the same thing in SB though, just you had to finish your class quest, and then you're given a full set of 290 armor+weapon for it, even though the dungeon before was like 279. Same case here, last leveling dungeon is 418, but they give you full 430 armor once you hit 80.
  35. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Once you do the MSQ with the role quest, he unlocks all the armor for that role that you have at 80. He even tells you before you leave. You just talk to him and get all that shit.

    FFlogs lets you see the general damage output of classes, with some padding included. There isn't much more currently since the first raid tier isn't out, nor is the first round of balance. From my experience, I'd say: Tanks are pretty balanced, I believe DRK is boring as all fuck due to a...

    Oh yellows I don't really need, although I guess you can overmeld VIIs if you have a shit ton, but I generally do cheap melds and the lower ones will meld more easily too. Tinctures sound annoying, the sands are still kinda expensive. I do have gatherers, but I also don't like gathering large...

    Which one is it exactly that gives a ton so I stock up on mats beforehand? I've been having only potions and those are only 100 and require 2 sands each and I got inks a bunch but those are only 20. Is it inks? It's the only ALC craft that doesn't require a bunch of stupid mats, the amount is...
