Might as well get over with quickly~
On the brightside you'll get mini horns on yours for your ears~ xD
I had the same issue, contact SE chat support and they'll give an email that they'll ask you to send any sort of ID, once you do that you'll get an email with your answer~ :3
I just had my first bad experience with the community aside from the usual woes that MMOs that they have (ie gold farmers, spammers, hackers etc). I was trying to do Sunken Temple for the first time in full and I had tried doing the dungeon with others but we failed lotsa times with the first boss, we beat him but ran out of time for he rest of the dungeon.
Anyways, the rest of my party was partied together and I was alone. Clearly, they didn't like women cause they immediately pointed out that I was a female tank; they also assumed I was a girl and I didn't know how to play. (I'm not a girl and I don't know why they assume girls are bad gamers; a stigma that has to die)
So as we played they kept giving me pointers which is great but cause they assumed I was a dumb player, the tone they used wasn't very friendly. I just ignored them, although taking their advice, and tried to get the dungeon over with. I don't think they knew how to play their classes either since they kept pulling enmity from me expecting that I can hold it all if they unloaded their full dps on everything. They were disorganized and kept pulling the killer bees which would instant kill if it coasted final sting on you. They would then say kill the bees, but then turn around and say don't tank the bees.
After a few bosses, and finally fighting the golem boss, I couldn't hold aggro from that boss for some reason no matter what I did. Is the latter part of the fight supposed to be like that or did the rest of my party do way more dmg over me? After the fight, they just up and left although we killed it without anybody dying or much dmg to the party.
Overall, they were rude, sexist, and impatient. (They want to skip over mobs entirely and rush the dungeon) I imagine it's only going to get worse as I level up. I hear horror stories about the late game where all the assholes have kinda coagulated. I mean so far this is the first bad experience I've had so that's not too bad compared to other people.

My brother and I helped two groups get past Titan HM tonight (Renault Cathetel in-game, hi folks) and on their way to their Relics.
Feels good man.

Yeah, and I would be Remiel, in case folks were wondering.
Reminds me that I still need to put up the obligatory "yay I got a Relic" image.

Ran sunken a few times now and that Golem boss seems to randomly target people after you take out the soulstone and it regenerates.

The boss is pretty much like that, dude's aggro is completely wack after breaking it's core the first time~

Looks like they're adding a new MVP system, rightclick blacklist and adding more reserve instances in 2.1

That's what I figured. I remember there was a couple other instances where it was designed a boss would target another player other than the one who has most aggro.
I was fine in the first half of the fight.
I checked the GAF player list to make sure they weren't part of GAF...I would be sad if they were; were better than that.

The music in this game is phenomenal. I'm especially loving the tracks that play in Ul'dah.

So glad I have that security token...that would suck to get hacked.

90000? That's the error people are getting the 72 hour auto ban for.

Isn't that just the connection lost error? Servers just went down for maintenance.
Going through those Titan woes now, though it's not all that bad. I guess the fight just wears people down, patience-wise. So many players are crabby and hostile and ornery before the fight even begins. I'm sure they've gone through many wipes and "wasted" a bunch of time, but so far, I'm enjoying just getting the fight down in my head. Watching a video certainly doesn't give me magical abilities of +1 to winning or something.
Not sure why it's better to attack a player who isn't performing well, instead of say, giving him tips (without the passive aggressive attitude). For instance, someone had problems dodging the 3-line bomb formation, and the healer explained "go to the last line, then run to center". Lovely, very helpful. Then he added, "whats so hard about that", which doesn't really help anyone.
I know, I shouldn't expect too much from random strangers looking to get over this "hump" of a fight, but I think people would just have a better time if they took a breath once in a while and go at it with more optimism and a happy-go-lucky attitude.
Anyway, while I'm on the topic of Titan HM, do any tanks have a good tip on avoiding the circle-bomb formation in the last phase? I stand here (stole screenshot from reddit thread), which takes care of line-bombs and cross-bombs. Currently, I'm just eating the bomb burstwith a cooldown since Landslide occurs right before with Mountain Buster following, and wondering if there's a better solution.

Fleece can be pretty terrible unless you're an arcanist with a titan-egi pet. In that case you pretty much run shit and no one can out tag you, or pull the sheep so they reset.
Got about 100~ fleece in one session. Towards the end I felt like an enormous asshole though, haha.
Praetorium speedruns are all the rage nowdays, thought it might be difficult to get a story group going. The cutscenes easily add an hour to that dungeon.

90K has always been the connection error for me at least.
SE says they're adding in the right click blacklist feature in 2.1.
Since that happened, then yeah, I'd assume so. I guess there isn't a specific error for the ban and that's just the one they use.
I was outpulling spellcasters with my Jumps on the Fleece the other day. Feels good man.

Nice! Any idea when 2.1 is hitting?
I'd guess 3-ish months from launch (seems to be the plan anyways), so probably November.

Hearing about these issues, I looked up this Emergency Password thing and found out it's app only! Guess I should upgrade to the free, software version!
Eh, I don't really mind watching the cutscenes in the Inn. My CM DF run was a speed run and I didn't really care.

Healers/Tanks will probably win the MVP the most.

That mvp system sounds like shit and I say that as someone that can solo heal titan.

Tank here and i nevear eat bombs anymore
There are 3 kind of bombs for last phase
I stay at the north side, if a bomb pops i move to my right until i'm between two bombs
O X O
X = Paladin
For the first pack of bombs you need to be like this
O
-----X---O
First pack aren't symetrical so you gotta be like that (and be always near the end of the ground, but i mean 100 % like if you move a little bit further you'll just fall
Second pack of bombs is symetrical so...........
O X O
To avoid these you need to be exactly in the middle with 1 feet outside the ground (it's a little bit tricky until you get experience).
Third pack of bombs are far away so you don't need to move from your standard tanking place
. Oh and while avoid bombs face the outside area, you shouldn't lost hate anywaysI hope that helps you!
Tip: Use 1 cooldown after each landslide (not before or while landslide is going on, gotta be AFTER landslide) and just ONE (These have priority: rampart, sentinel, convalescence, bulwark). Why does it need to be like this? some CDs like sentinel doesn't last long so be careful

Man that Imperial base in Mor Dhona reminds me so much of the Imperial Palace in Vector from VI.
I'm on Goblin, but my group has cleared up to Turn 4 with a Paladin and Warrior tank combo. Also with whm + whm, and whm + sch heal combos. You can really do this stuff with any comp, short of two warriors, that would be a little too rough to heal in my opinion.

What are these hard mode dungeons I'm reading about for 2.1? I really hope it's something that adds some variety to the end game crawl for new jobs and gear-ups, because right now there's an entire one proper dungeon for doing so and that's kind of...pathetic. Wish they had done a few more, heck, even just bumping up Wanderer's Palace stuff to proper rewards and levels would've helped a lot. Sick of AK, and I've not even been capped that long, I took my time.
There's also a phantom train there.
I love it. If everyone is being helpful just have them all vote for a different person. Even if it's not ideal it will cut down on the asshattery from people who want the rewards.
What does that have to do with the system? I don't see how anyone who isn't a jerk in groups would think this is a "shit" system. If you're helpful you get rewarded, if you aren't you don't...weather you can solo heal titan or not.

is Square two-factor compatible with 3rd party app like Authy?

That MVP system sounds like a nightmare for DPS. We will never ever get anything ever.

I am Homie
Just downloaded this game. Is the tank class good? a friend of mine told me that the tank class has no taunt or AOE ability and isn't worth it.
Should also add that I am very new to mmo's.
