Christ hahahaha That's unbelievable Might be worth it just to have him wait it out and do his thing in the meantime since he's already grinded up to 22 and all anyway so creating a new character probably isn't ideal for him. Idk it still sucks though On the bright side you have us to play with till he's here!
haha yeah i think we are just gonna resolve to not get into Heavensward until this is sorted out, certainly grateful for chorus folks to quest with as he just has no one now
Alright I made my new character. Her name is the same but now she’s a lancer and on the Cactuar server, if you could update that @Fucking Dustin ! Here’s her page too Lera Tyrn | FINAL FANTASY XIV, The Lodestone
Hit Level 50 last night and I am so damn excited. This game takes on a whole new meaning once you do. SO stoked to play tonight. @electro haikus when do you plan on getting on tonight?
idk honestly. probably a little bit right at 6 and then my roommate will wanna screw around with the 2k18 dlc for a bit because he is a Hardy mark. prob will jump on again for a bit between 9 and 10. hbu?
Got the main post updated, removed some fields to make it easier to reference haha. I'll be on tonight too, not sure when but it'll likely be after 730 CST
i am kind of a hundred years old and have to be outta bed by 6:30 ET every morning so i like to be in bed chillin' by 10. weekends are a diff ball game but still rarely broach midnight
Got up to level 11 while staying up way too late tonight. I think on my old world I was getting an exp boost and in Cactuar I’m not for some reason. Luckily since I changed class everything is different so it isn’t getting stale or anything.
so, questions: why do the new city-states start with level 1 quests/monsters? can't make sense of it for the life of me. i was thinking maybe you start in different places depending on race/class but no way is that the case in a game with prerendered cutscenes in the story. what is the blue in my XP bar? like, it'll be mostly gold or white or w/e and then there will be a blue section tagged on the end?
The blue is the experience bonus you get for resting in a town while logged off I believe. As for your other question I dunno, where ever the main quest took me there would also be quests around my level at the time. Something that starts at level 1 is usually for guilds or learning new crafts or stuff like that. Dustin knows way more than me.
didn't get to play a ton yesterday but i just get access to the airship, so pumped to see where that leads me tonight.
Yes, you do start in different places depending on your class. The story is slightly different (but roughly the same) up until the airship quests depending on your starting city
I just hit Level 51, I love all the different types of dungeons I have access to now. Black Mage gets so much more fun the further down the road you go. Powerful as fuck too.
Once you get around level 30 I believe it is, or even now, start playing as an archer as well. You need a level 30 archer and thaumaturge job class to become BLM I think.
