Took the Gladiator on Shiva EU to 22, but didn't have the chance to party it up with Recall. I'm done with her for a little while, got to level the Pug on Siren NA with my friends and try to get Lea on Ultros to 50 (and unlock Garuda, and find people in the FC to do it with... damn it why are the chains so long... and I keep getting sidetracked!).

I won't be on for another 40 minutes which is 7pm here in the UK. Its the only time I can play from as my Son is in bed then so I have free time.

Thanks for trying though.
 
Lol, guess they got carried through ifrit then

Ifrit is extremely easy if there's always someone on stunning duty, this Ifrit makes the original HM Ifrit hard as hell due to the lag and animation lock.

Now, if they can beat Garuda with shit gear, they are indeed being carried and gotta say it, but at least they know how to position themselves and move.
 
Yeah there's a reddit thread with translation.

-high end repair costs and dark matter costs will be tweaked and dark matter will drop from high level areas, effective after tomorrow's update.

-item level requirement on high end dungeons/trials to be implemented at 2.1

-"local world only" option in duty finder so players can post what roles and duties they are looking for (an alternative to shouting in only one area, I guess). Also coming with 2.1.

I like what they are doing with duty finder then.

It seems like they took dark matter away from gatherers and gave it to the battle classes. Kind of weird. Also weird crafters can't repair other player's gear.

Really nice changes.

Hopefully they don't overshoot with dailies and we don't go from deflation to hyper inflation.
 
I've been reluctant to do so because of the comments made by other people when asking them not use certain language.

I'm glad you're responding to a general question and criticism with a threat to kick me.

You already expressed your intentions to leave.

It's easy enough to send a private message here, through the website, or contact one of us directly in the game, but you choose to ignore these avenues in favor of an attempted public shaming. This is the second time you have tried to spread negativity and stir up trouble about the guild here in the thread. Again, besides your most recent statements being slanderous and completely false, there is an appropriate time and place to address these grievances. This is directly against our Free Company policy.
 
These gil sellers are getting my brothers mailbox had six messages from them in it.
there are at least 3 or 4 guys shouting in every city also.

Really? I must've blacklisted most of them already then, because honestly I'm not even seeing those shouts daily yet. Mind you, when I do see them, I'll get two or three a day, but, that seems to have declined slightly since I started black-listed infected users.

Does black list block the account or just the character?
 
Links hell is mostly overflow that can get into the FC yet. Ask maple cookie or strawberry shortcake for an invite in game

Hrm so LS is basically waiting list. Dam was hoping to somehow play with you guys; thought there'd be simple way to communicate/cooperate between our groups, alas.

As stated in my private message to you, chat moves way too fast which is why my tells to you were probably missed

Well the two officers are there and are generally happy enough to shout out in the FC chat with requests from the Linkshell. Alternatively you could probably start a gaf link shell, the limit should be enough after numbers start to drop in october

Have not hit my mailbox yet but I cant even go into a main city anymore without at least 2 tells and a bunch of shouts within a minute.
 
So what exactly is a link shell? And what exactly is a Free Company?

I'm clearly going to need to find people to play with as unfortunately my schedule isn't in line with others.

The conclusion we came to was to incentive folks to level crafters or to also dump gil out of the economy. Again this might go back to being more so Legacy based if anything

I don't think dark matter was gathererable.
 
Darklight gear ranges, the jewelry goes for 375 tomes, gloves and belt for about 475, pants are 800ish, chest piece is 1300ish.

A couple of us have been running AK but it gets kinda difficult with the 30minute + queue times. Maybe we can get some runs going tonight.

Darklight jewelry is kinda mixed bag to me. There are better crafted items in some slots depending on job. So you can actually save yourself the trouble of doing runs if you are or know someone that's a high level Goldsmith. You can also meld these with materia to make them better. There was a guy that put up two 5 materia-melded Rose Gold Ear Screws on Excalibur for 2.5 million gil. The ones he melded were really nice too making it the best DD earring you could get currently. I'll take a screenshot of it when I get home unless Soraan or someone else on Excali can do it.
 
If there's an abundance of damage dealers and not enough tanks, and I want to develop a tank so as to participate in multiplayer more easily, what class do you recommend choosing as a secondary class for (1) a previously-leveled Thaumaturge, and (2) a previously-leveled Archer? Both are DPS classes; having raised a Marauder in the beta and grasped the basics of enmity management and tanking, I wouldn't mind trying out another tank class and having more multiplayer opportunities. Which classes would work well with the abilities that those two characters already have?

That's quite a policy. Things seem a little serious on Ultros there

None of them. Both PLD and WAR can't use skills form either THM or Archer. Their disciplines can but the skills aren't useful at all.

WAR can only take abilities from GLD and PGL, and the PLD can only take skills from MRD and CNJ. So you would essentially be starting from scratch. It doesn't take that long to level up the secondary classes you would need though.. for WAR you just need GLD 22 and PGL 12.
 

I'm not going down this path. SE designed the system. Blaming players for it is insane. They designed, they control it, only they can change it. It doesnt work. I'm supposed to blame someone other than SE for that? No.

Too bad I've made 2 million gil from high level gathering. Sucks that you got banned though.

Everyone who was in the front of the pack on anything crafting or gathering related made millions. This isn't prove anything. No one can make millions of mining nodes and then putting that stuff on the AH right now. You can still make millions taking advantage of the few areas shortfalls of supply exist. The issue is that all demand is temporary and once satisfied vanishes entirely.

WTF? I can't log in since 2 days ago, the client suddenly crashes every time I click on the login button. Trying logging in the forum has given me that message. They sent me an email regarding "suspicious activity", with links to change my password... seriously, people are already messing with people account?

It's called taking ownership. SE isn't blameless since they did cater to the players, but your claim is preposterous and your doomsday cry is equally so.

You know that to craft the iLv70 items you require from 9 to 18 items bought with philosophy tomes, so you basically need 1125 to 2250 tomes to buy these items and get an item crafted, not mentioning the other materials which you should get HQ to facilitate HQing the final result.

So yeah, unless you are extremely rich to buy the tomes items from the AH for 70-100k each as they are going on the markets, you do need to run dungeons for them.

If you try to login on a different IP you get that message. And yes, gil sellers have already begun enmass account hacking. They steal all your gil, then they use your character to advertise their site.

Hey, I still have about 1 hour to play, then I'll have to go watch Person if Interest. Let me know if you wanna try, I'm up for it.

I don't really need to defend my doomsday cry. It will be proven true or false in the coming weeks. If they don't add gill fountains within the next 4 weeks and you don't see some of what I posed feel free to call me out on it.

Hmmm, so crafters need to do endgame as battle classes to be crafters?

Why can't Gil fountains be new players buying gear from crafters. Leveling 1-50 seems to give you about 100K, even if you don't try to accumulate money.

A Ponzi scheme if you will?

I'm playing on Ultros so not sure if people are putting out stuff like that anywhere near the amount of money I have. The jewelry is cheap enough that it isn't such a big deal to run a couple times and get 1-2 pieces a day.

I think when it boils down to min-maxing those pieces will be much more prominent.

Hrm, I'll have to check it again.

I looked at the Rose Gold Ear Screws and they only required crafted Rose Gold and Darksteel items both of which were buyable. I know the body armors were more pricey because of that but it looked like most of the GSM stuff didn't require it.

Those earrings require Peacock Ore...which you buy from Tomes. forcing a crafter to run dungeons.
