Played abit of Reaper and would like to lvl upto 80 for EE msq.
I did 3 pixies quests and 2 dungeons, got to 71....any kind advice for leveling tips please?
my mix is pixie quests, wonderous tails, fate challenge log and bozja southern front/zadnor. then mix in roulletes that have their bonus to give.

failing that...generic shadowbringers quests are 'okay' xp. and i hear heaven on high is good but you'll want to kill yourself after a time.

Seeing as I only got to try Reaper yesterday before I took a nap I wanted to ask if the MSQ is good so far? 520 in queue now (had to work today so could not log in early) and not sure if I want to continue leveling Reaper or do MSQ.
I enjoyed it. a few really interesting reveals i didn't see coming, and some foreshadowing i think i'm starting to catch.

if we're on a scale of shadowbringers MSQ, we're still going up the rollercoaster at this point. (i finished the first dungeon and some af ter-talk)

I can't wait for Yoshi P to cry those crocodile tears again, saying how sorry he is for the login problems and legions of players defending him as if they were simping for some OF thot. Bottom line is that the situation is unacceptable and it's only gonna get worse.

Finally in Garlemald - really enjoying the xpac and story so far. Seems like it's at the level of SHB to this point which is a pretty good bar

It's beyond SHB. I just cried over a character they just introduced and I'm lv83. WHAT THE FUCK.

Every other time they play that fucking creepy radio, fucking hell...

Normally I appreciate your posts, but this is pretty stupid.

lol what? Got in instantly this morning, and was smart enough not to get logged off while I played all last night. I know you're trolling or stupid, but they pretty much forewarned everyone it was going to be rough, be smart, not dumb, and it's not even close to as bad as some patch day/expansion releases.

Bubbles should know not to pick on poor ff14, has more fanboys than wow ever had.

Logging in early Saturday morning is definitely cherry picking and you know it is... Shit will be unplayable soon if not already and they have no feasible way to increase server capacity in any short time frame due to shortages.

You could say that's not their fault but at the same time what did they expect?

Gonna be a lot of pissed off players.

YoshiP and crew have been warning for months about to expect issues. They had like a 10 page blog post detailing issues with obtaining servers due to the microprocessor shortage, etc.

It sucks but they've at least been trying to communicate this for a while now

Initial launch was rough. 0 problems since then. It was only really an issue when the login servers were getting slammed. Now that people are on the actual servers and staggered out, it's smooth as butter. Gilgamesh hasn't even crashed once and it's one of the biggest servers on the one of the biggest datacentres.

I have had zero issues when I get past the queue, did not have any 2002 errors today either. Logged on "late" for a saturday and had like 1700 queue. Once in it's been really smooth sailing. Started MSQ and got to Sharlyan but will get Reaper to 80 first I think. While tanks are in demand I don't really feel like playing the Paladin right now.

I mean I logged in yesterday afternoon through a queue of 2k, yesterday morning through 4400. The shortages aren't their fault, and they told people to be ready for it. Truth be told I figured it being Saturday even the early morning hours would be jam packed...they were Friday. I'm sure a lot of players will be pissed, but considering this is how it always goes for big launches and the warning...what did they expect? Be smart about it as much as possible, sorry if you're on one of the really screwed servers.

Daily roulettes. PVP one gave a ton of xp and doesnt matter if you win/lose.
