Can't wait till I get the AF DRG (and eventually WAR) armor for him. Its seriously the best thing ever.

Edit: And in regards to making one, isn't one of the rewards for subbing for a month a free character recustomization? Maybe you can change your character into a superior lalafell!

I was thinking about it but I wish I was able to get more of those items from ways other than Veteran Rewards. That way I'll never have to make another character ever. :D

Hoping for 50+ AF Armor tomorrow =)

That vitality O.O
 
Yeah I know, I was just wondering because both are tanking classes and both skills do pretty much the same thing with zero cast time, but one has a longer cool down.

It just one advantage PLD/GLD has over other classes, and it's not without it's downside (since you can find yourself with the GCD down). Also PLD gets a silence skill for example.

It's a tank that have more ways to avoid/recieve less dmg in contrast with WAR that is more a brute tank focussing in a larger HP pool and recovery skills.
 
My lodestone is showing my THM gear in the preview but my CNJ gear and stats in the icons.

I'm pretty excited though, I unlocked SMN today, so I have all of the ACN and CNJ jobs. And Cystm has finally got his tank almost caught up with me on the main storyline so no more queues hopefully

Anyone using SweetFX care to share their settings?
SMAA:

#define SMAA_THRESHOLD 0.05 //[0.05 to 0.20] Edge detection threshold. If SMAA misses some edges try lowering this slightly. I prefer between 0.08 and 0.12.
#define SMAA_MAX_SEARCH_STEPS 98 //[0 to 98] Determines the radius SMAA will search for aliased edges
#define SMAA_MAX_SEARCH_STEPS_DIAG 16 //[0 to 16] Determines the radius SMAA will search for diagonal aliased edges
#define SMAA_CORNER_ROUNDING 100 //[0 to 100] Determines the percent of antialiasing to apply to corners. 0 seems to affect fine text the least so it's the default.

LumaSharpen:

#define sharp_strength 0.80 //[0.10 to 3.00] Strength of the sharpening
#define sharp_clamp 0.040 //[0.000 to 1.000] Limits maximum amount of sharpening a pixel recieves - Default is 0.035

Film Grain:

#define FilmGrainIntensity 0.38 //[0.00 to 1.00] Intensity of grain. Default is 0.46
#define FilmGrainExposure 40 //[0 to 100] Grain Exposure. Default is 40 (Lower -> darker noise)
#define FilmGrainSize 2 //[0 to 10] Size of the grain. Default is 2 (Higher -> thinner noise)

Vibrance:
#define Vibrance 0.10 //[-1.00 to 1.00] Intelligently saturates (or desaturates if you use negative values) the pixels depending on their original saturation.
 
I'm in tin can mode until the Lodestone updates with my MNK gear. I love the catear indentations on the helm though. :lol

Edit: Level 13 arcanist wearing GLD gear. I've seen it all now.
 
That vitality O.O

Hehe.. I need my HPs!!!!



Suggestion for everyone.. DO NOT DO GORUDA with a PUG group.. I wiped 9 times with a Pug group on it cause DPS wasn't doing their jobs, and people being stupid..

We form an all GAF Group and we got it on the first try.
 
FATEs mean people will have 50 in all battle classes within the month.

The problem here is what?

End Game has so many hurdles and roadblocks just for 1 class to be leveled up correctly with iGear will cost time and a fortune

Hell I want to get everything 50, why not, want that crown!

This happened to me awhile back. I posted this and it disappeared in the mass of people complaining about the login. lmao. This happened cause Im not part of the GAF Free Company.

Whaaaaat?
I thought GAF was full. I was in the GAF FFXI shell for years and didn't even ask to join.

Makes sense.
 
Probably already posted, but the seven "free" days is official:


SquareEnix said:
Because login and character creation restrictions have hindered our ability to provide quality service, all FINAL FANTASY XIV service accounts will receive an additional seven days of free play time. Furthermore, users who have yet to enter their registration codes will receive an additional seven-day trial should they register before 11:59 p.m. (PDT) on September 9, 2013.


A little short since by my count the game has been shit for 8 days, but oh well. I got in plenty of play time today so I can't complain.

Source.
 
The cynic in me thinks that this maintenance will do little more than allow them to start up sales again by having new servers. People on existing servers will be boned until a transfer process in in place.

This is basically how I feel. We shall see. Crossing my fingers because this is such a fun game. Best time I've had since DAOC.
 
No no, I'm part of my friend's GC on Ultros. lol. Thats why I got that reaction from someone.

I know. I just don't understand why they think you should be in GAF if it's impossible.
 
The problem here is what?

It probably won't be a problem for the people playing now (whatever ramifications to expectations aside), but new players four or so months down the line will likely run into some issues with story-required dungeons. The idea that someone will always be leveling something won't exist here (that's the reason lower level parties were constantly abundant in FFXI). Though I figure they may just turn off all the rules for dungeons very soon and let lv. 50s just sleepwalk through those to clear them (or have a friend do it for them). That seems to be more of their style these days.

That seems to be more of their style these days.

As long as there are new players, there will always be people to go through dungeons with. So providing the game doesn't just stop selling all together, that won't be an issue.
The lure of new expansions in future will always bring in swathes of new players, too.
 
I meant that I just chose not to join the GAF GC, not because its impossible. lol.

Well, depending on when you installed the game/ were able to log on, it might not have really been a choice.
 
Question about endgame.
I bought my lvl 50 GC lance and have Hetairos leggings. Do I need my Ifrit lance to fight Garuda and so on? Is it better just to spend the cash and get my relic spear quest going?
 
One thing I miss from GLD transition to PLD was the Internal Release Skill from PUG

OMFG!, Internal Release + Flight or Fight, fucking Orgasmic

The Fast Blade > Savage Blade > Rage of Halone
Mother of Christ was it amazing
