Final Fantasy XIV Video Game • Page 30

I can do Friday usually except I think me and Cait are goin to dinner and to see the new QT movie this Friday but I can maybe move that to sat

 

I mainly suggested this upcoming Friday cuz my kids will be here the next Friday meaning I won't be able to be on till later but if that one is preferred we can do that

 

Been watching this at work because well, I can watch full documentaries at work.

Really really interesting look at the OG FF XIV and how it came to be how it is now. Yoshi-P comes off like a total badass in this too. The original interface to this game was so fucking ugly my god.

 

Did my first 8 person duty last night and is it always that chaotic? I was having trouble following what was going on hahah

 

Which one was it? Castrum? People love to just rush through those big story ones (Castrum/Praetorium) as quick as possible haha

 

Yeah it was Castrum hahah. That definitely makes sense, I guess in the light parties I’m just used to being more in control as a tank, so when everyone else was just go go go I felt kinda like I wasn’t doing what I’m used to doing. Not a big deal though, it was pretty easy in the end

 

Yeah there's a roulette for main scenario runs that gives a shit ton of exp/tomes so people run it and wanna rush through em as quickly as possible. Makes it kinda difficult for the people who are genuinely new to it to keep up but yeah they're easy

 

But to answer your question @ikanacanyon no it's not always like that! But you'll see it quite a bit in the ARR 8 man stuff (story trials, hard mode trials, even ex trials at this point)

 

Yeah I figured they were all vets with it so I didn’t really feel bad for being/maybe seeming so lost or slow haha. One part that’s kinda a bummer I guess is since I’m slower I can’t really practice OTing since I know that’s something that’s gonna become more prevalent at some point, and I feel like light parties prep more for MTing

 

Are you gonna be on this Friday? I'd be willing to help you practice on that, I can MT ARR stuff and get a synced party together for some MT/OT content

 

OT isn't hard either though in general, it's just mainly learning how/when to tank swap in those situations and to pick up adds/place em well and shit

 

Unfortunately probably not. We’re going to the beach early on Saturday and won’t be back til next week. Once I’m back though I’m definitely down! I have a work event, but I’m hoping I have time after to get on tonight to finish the last MSQ for ARR

 

It's not the last MSQ for ARR you've got more stuff before HW

 

Well shoot hahah. I guess it’s still at least a step in the right direction

 

Yeah basically you'll have cleared the MAIN quests of ARR like, main quests of patch 2.0 when ARR was released. Everything after is added on endgame stuff between 2.0 (ARR release) and 3.0 (Heavensward release)

 

Gotcha. Yeah I just looked up the quest list and there is definitely more then I realized haha. Is it as fetch-questy as a lot of the ARR stuff?

 

To be blunt, yes hahahaha

It gets better in expansions

 

Sigh well I guess it’s easy to grind out at least hahah. Although also easier to get distracted by crafting and gathering during

 

Yeah honestly if you're interested in crafting/gathering jump on it and grind those out as you go

That's what I'm doing right now, trying to get my crafters up to snuff

 

Yeah hahah whenever I don’t feel like committing to combat that’s what I’ve been doing and so far it’s been pretty rewarding. I’m finally at a point in armoring where I can sell things on the market board to make (I think) a pretty good profit so that’s exciting

 

Actually tonight I might just do some crafting so I can keep things on the market while I’m away. The grind never stops

 

I just got my weaver to 74, trying to be in a situation where I can overmeld everything I use

 

ill be on later tonight

 

Same

After dinner

 

i gotta wait for Melissa to be done with the tv but will ne on at some point
