anyone know how to track/untrack quests in your journal?
You can't. The ability was there all through beta too, but for some reason is gone this phase. I am hoping its just a bug or if its not they realize how retarded it is to remove it.

So this game has a sub fee right? $15 I assume?
It's the usual 15$, less if you buy a bunch of months at once, but there's also an option to pay 13$ a month with a limit of 1character per server and 8chars total(instead of 8 per server and 40 total), which is pretty cool if you don't give a fuck about alts.

There's an option to turn off spells, you sure it wasn't on by mistake?
Im starting to think it has something to do with being full screen... playing in a 1600x900 window got rid of screen tearing.. i'll see in a min if i get spell effects now.

edit: nope. still no spell effects, sighh. I'll see if i have this option set or something

81/128, 41 online on Gilg. Considering we had 93 on the signup sheet that's pretty good.

Duty Finder is completely broken for me. Continuously disconnects me every time I try to join and lots in /shout complaining about it too. Plus /linkshells were down for me and social lists.

im on malboro bro.
/wave

Picked that one myself after taking so long and never being able to snag Gilg , seems decent enough so far. Still trying to decide on a class though so have a couple toons (was set on archer and still leaning that but dabbling with arcanist and want to try a melee right quick just to see which style I like best for a main)

Who knows maybe there will be transfers eventually

If you want a invite to the linkshell, please friend Valos Sirith, or Katya Kazanova. And then send whoever a message saying you need a invite. Sometimes we're afk, or in a instance or whatever.

Just as a heads up to anyone who might be considering it:

Arcanist damage is total ass right now. Like, worst in the game by a considerable margin level of ass. No clue if it gets much better when it becomes Summoner, but right now the class is just really unfinished and generally bad.


For reference, the DPS rotation on Arcanist revolves entirely around not having to cast Ruin. Ruin is the only nuke the class has, and it's potency rating is80(this is bad). The pet is supposed to make up for that (in theory), but comes no where close. The end result is that the optimal way of playing the class is to pickup two cross class dots (thunder/aero), and multi-dot every mob in a pull with the general priority list of: Miasma --> Bio --> Thunder --> Aero. And you have to go to that level of effort just to get your damage at barely tank level.

TL;DR: Quad dotting every add in the pull still results in over 50% less damage than a well played Pug/Archer/THM. You put in more effort than any other class, and end up with remarkably shitty results.

Yeah, I knew something was horribly wrong when I switched to ACN after finishing with CNJ, only to find that ACN takes considerably longer to kill things than CNJ did. Wish I'd had the parser running on the one dungeon I did as dps, I would have liked to see just how bad it was in spite of me multi-dotting everything in sight.
