[Megathread] Final Fantasy XIV

Top: Ya I did but I didn't know by how much I just went SAM and didn't look

Bottom: Even if I reset and originally did it on a different job?

Other: FUCK THESE QUE TIMES, Trying to do HW story and I been in que for this trial for 35mins.

Sch and smn level at the same time just que as a healer

[Crissi]

Yeah you can spam 51-60 on any job, any time you want as long as you've cleared 50 once. People do that all the time to level, it's much faster than 1-10 spam!

Also what trial do you need help with? Let me know if it still hasn't popped, I'll tank it for you real quickarooni. I'm on Leviathan (Primal data center).

You too? If you see a person named CLova Solani, thats me

Just did it, It was Thok ast Thok. Thanks for the offer tho, I didn't know I could just do 51-60 since I did 1-50 once before. Ill be giving that a go later or tomorrow.

Not going to que as a healer if I'm not going to heal

[Crissi]

Sounds good! My character is named Brobo Cop.

Im jelly of your clever name

[Crissi]

started que at 1632. an hour later...

*headdesk*

[Jtbrig7390]

I just checked your sig, looks like we're on different Data Centers anyways D: Hopefully they remove that restriction completely soon.

Ya would make que times better as well.

[Aruhen]

You can queue together now, you just create a private party and set a password and BAM. I've been running Dun Scaith cross-server for a while now with my WoW guildies. You do need to be on the same datacenter though.

Oh right forgot about that. Bit of a pain still compared to just being on each others friends list. Hopefully they remove the data center restriction within region.

I was far less angry with the MSQ issues as I was the ungodly queues. I spend 3-4 hours both Friday and yesterday waiting in queue (total) to get to play.

Now that I've moved, zero queue to log in, and I've already sold enough stuff overnight to cover the cash I spent getting a house. There's enough folks here to do FATEs with no issue. Got the boss one south of Castrum Oriens earlier, shouted out that it was up, and we downed it with 15-20 people. It's nice being able to actually see all the people and mobs at a FATE for a change. It dropped a music scroll that happened to ding the 100 scroll achievement for me.

Got past Raubahn and Pipin quests on first try after I got here, too. Granted, I cleared the Raubahn one at 4 am my time, so that helped...

Yeah smaller servers are very nice imo.. Why I try and go medium pop often.

Thanks! I may look up which quests unlock flying for each area. Either that Or I'll just go through it organically. Iunno yet.

Tip they are always blue with the + on em

So a small shirogane house is listed at 3 million gil?

that shit will last seconds.

All houses have same prices

I have to say, grinding out the level 50 ARR quests is ridiculous at times, some of these quests literally just make you walk back and forth to talk to people. Honestly they could remove a good 30 to 40% of them as it's all filler shit.

[zito]

Got home 1600 que and its dropping slowly. I guess that means they fixed the crashes been an hour and down to 700 in que

[RohanV]

Wow, not sure what happened, but after having queues of 800 or so all weekend, I went for dinner and came back to a queue of 2200.

They did indeed fix the issue of random dcs

The 2.1-2.55 MSQ is notorious for being full of stupid make-work. The 3.x stuff is much better about it, and so far the 4.0 seems decent, I am getting a little tired of being blocked off from areas by it, though.

As an aside, I'm getting a very Bedknobs and Broomsticks vibe from going about underwater on my Archon Throne.

ANy way of transfering to another region instance? My bf and I, in the same party, seem to be on 2 different ones

You mean datacenter?

[Crissi]

You mean datacenter?

no, like they broke up the Fringe area into 3 sub things to mitigate the load, and it keeps seperating my bf and I

Oh then I have no clue sorry.

[Crissi]

whose bright idea was it to seperate a pre formed party?

Oh, its SE devs. I expect impracticality and inconvienence form them

[lawow74]

Try and do the Susano fight, no one explains mechanics, we wipe twice, one tank gets all salty, gets vote-kicked, queue for a new tank, after a couple mins everyone leaves. Yaaaay. I wait around the 15 mins, vote-abandon, now it won't let me do any new duties cos apparently it gave me an abandon penalty even though I did what it said? GG SE.

. Its a cool fight tho. I'd say even a little bit of a step up from the average story primal and keeps healers on their toes which I found surprising.
