Yeah if you think of the tiers as expansions, then the first tier is 302->600. You get your first set of blue from questing or a chaos dungeon, then upgrade it. You can unlock Epic/Legendary sets also and transfer over your honing levels, but you still only gain ilvl from honing. The base gear...

I feel like "daily lockouts for currency" or "combine failures" by themselves are enough to limit progression. Having both feels like some kind of Chinese water torture made to inspire shop purchases.

If you go to Freedom Isle or whatever it's called (Where you buy the song) there are some quests there that give a buttload of coins.

Yeah I believe if you have t1 +15 you get 1 level, +16 you get 2, etc. Not sure if it's worth it, but I guess if you are in T3 and pushing past +15 it gives you a head start when T4 releases. Also the original item is consumed during the process, but it only costs silver and is guaranteed success.

Yeah that passed. They had like three teams of streamers competing to unlock 'points' or some shit. Each tier of the race had a different reward, think it was pet->hat->mount. My hat isn't finished either because the last team that was doing hat flipped over to mount before I could finish...

Thanks, I tried it out and set a bifrost, then immediately tried to change it to see if it cost anything. Saw the crystal cost and stopped using them. lol

Does it cost crystals to change the bifrost, and ultimately does that matter?

They did some tiered drop release thing, so had all the drops visible. Any of the drops that weren't active (future or passed) were assigned to that AmznGTom account, I guess just to work around Twitch not having a way to disable/hide them. Towards the end of the drive they added it to...

Have that dude wind up the kick for 6 seconds and that's how I feel as soul fist. Especially when the boss moves right at the beginning, you feel like a real idiot. Their basic attack shoots little mid range fireballs, but it's not something you normally use. Most builds include close range...

Everyone knows that FF3 (6) is the best. Obviously, anyone who likes FF7 is a disc cuck traitor that deserves to be strung up from a lamp pole for siding with Square over Nintendo.

I don't think you need ARR for Shadowbringers. You could literally skip straight to Shadowbringers and by the end it's pretty good. I played during ARR release then never again, boosted to Shadowbringers when it came out because I thought the game was the same as WoW (where only endgame/current...

I think the 2.x quests are worse than the ARR quests. It also doesn't help that after finishing ARR and being ready for HW you have to slog through Alphinaud's Hitler Youth bullshit. The name "Crystal Braves" also made me want to throw up. All the Crystal this and bad translation that is just...

Those skill point potions, virtue points, etc that you get from those roster quests are roster wide. You can see them on your roster page (O by default). Aftert finishing the Vern quest (killing the necromancer dude) you are mailed a power pass. After using it, you'll get your second one.

I can't wait for this game to be the defining game of my grandchildren's youth.

For sure. Pantheon will be a nice break after years and years of MnM TLPs.

It's not that it happens all the time, it's about the one time you're doing EX2 as the tank and you get smeared because you're a boomer with 50 years of 'muscle memory' so you can't modify your playstyle to adapt to new input controls. Nobody gives a shit outside of savage/extreme/ultimates...

Pretty sure runes only start dropping at max level content. I have leveled to 50 and haven't seen any. I am not through the story yet, just getting to Vern. Do I really have to just keep doing more story even though I hit 50 midway through the last continent? As for the story/pacing, once you...

As a melee, I have muscle memory to strafe run out of things to maximize uptime on the boss, not to turn my camera and run 'forward' out of aoes. Just a 45 degree camera turn and strafe/run. Many times prior to legacy I'd be strafing out of an AE and hit an ability only to have my dude stop...

I was just emphasizing your point that the real feature is not having to face a particular direction (in bold) and that it doesn't really change THAT much otherwise. Game must be in a mid-patch lull if we're arguing with someone who is pre-Heavensward with less than half of their kit about...

If you are playing with legacy on, it basically just changes it so your backstep is full speed run. You ignore your character model and just do your rotation. You still spin the camera just as much to see what is going on, but now you can back up 1 foot out of an ae without touching the camera...

I don't understand how he can be so wrong about CEOs while being so right on the JQ!?

Is Lost Ark P2W? Yes Is Lost Ark just a fotm game that board members will latch onto for a month, desperately trying to fill the void until they inevitably end up back on another EQ TLP after they promised that they were done? Also yes. Nobody gives a shit if it is or isn't P2W because it's a...

I'm waiting for the Sylas redemption arc once they finish Shadowbringers. It's gonna be Chris 2.0.

vg was saying gunlancer is great in random content, but if you're in a static you prob just want another dps. Ultimately you're going to be doing this shit on at least 3 characters so why not have one be a gunlancer? Question about the power pass, is that a one time thing, or is it once per...

I played around with using a ps4 controller and it worked fine once I turned it on in steam. Needed to remap the controls a bit to get off of their reliance on LT/LB for everything. The only annoying part is the mouse cursor is slow as shit.

To put it in capeshit terms, it's like forcing someone to watch 20+ hours of Thor 2 so they can watch Winter Soldier, Ragnarok, Infinity War, etc. People who say "it's not that bad" are either retarded or looking back at it after having already liked the game. It's a time capsule of how bad...

This is where people keep talking past one another. If you're concerned with making good games, Bobby Kotick is terrible at his job. If you're concerned with making good money, then he's great at it. There is a fundamental and philosophical disagreement about the 'point' of a game company. From...

Such injustice. Now Regulus/Una are paypig only servers and all of my poor working class friends who were waiting for F2P are segregated to the ghettos!? I hope commie twitter is doing something about this clear classism.

I don't think there are server transfers? At least not free. You have to reroll. I don't think they have any special logic in place. If you claimed those items, they will be re-sent to your claim window, specifically the ones they outlined. You can then claim them on whatever server.

It had to do with PvP because it was a PvP game for its entire life and then in the last hour decided to throw on a PvE wig and make up and pretend it wasn't.

God damn they never learn. The worst thing you can do for an MMO is fully lock character creation during the early critical period. If you're too smooth brain to find a better solution, then at least have some kind of an invite system where people can give their friends a pass to create a...

When I started slowing down and being more deliberate about using my abilities, things started working better vs just like frantic APM button spam. Also, this shit has that same thing that every shitty mobile mmo/game has where you do some mundane thing and all of a sudden there is fanfare and...

I was more concerned that ASG might not be as resistant to forum shitters as Smilegate.

Speaking of 'forum noise', what is all the chatter about censorship that is going on? Are people upset that there aren't physics enabled labia hanging out of their shorts? Does ASG have control over the game that supercedes the Koreans? I know /vg/ was complaining about the % of 'diverse'...

The problem is, all that matters to people are ordinal differences, not the actual spread. In THE GAME THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED, the logging community also attributes buffed dps you give to other classes to the buffer. So you look at the rDPS of the class, not the personal DPS. Even then, if the...

What the fuck is going on over in Korea where you mine Copper Ore nodes to get Iron Ore???

Common mistake when you see your customers as cows to be milked vs people to be entertained.

Yeah. I was doing savage with a group and I felt one person was not 100% pulling their weight. Talked to someone else in the group and it turns out they are deaf and play on a console. All discord call outs were coming out text to speech on whatever system they had. So they were actually doing...

The main thing is FF14 doesn't have any 'hard mode' for the dungeons. In WoW, the standard, queueable dungeons are definitely something you just yolo your way through (AE but per pack vs the entire wing). WoW dungeons become more interesting when you get into M+ only because the trash becomes...
