bad gameplay lol
Wait, what exactly does this mean?
Is this new, or the same issue the PS3 version has (at least in my experience) always had?
Yup. You can go to the one west of Moraby Drydocks called Stay Frosty. Just stand in the snow treant's AoE to get a snowbuff and punch imps.
Finally unlocked CT last night (early this morning) and god that was a hassle and a half. Thankfully they're more or less doable with 3-4 people but it was long and incredibly tedious, especially as they're all in pretty mob dense areas. Lost hope on the last one when I died, since it was one of the ones that stoneskined and at the time I was the only one who would silence it. Thankfully a few more people came to join.
Locking CT off behind fates was an awful idea.

Not looking forward to unlocking CT. Hoping I can do it and not have to worry about it again.

I've only been playing for 5 days or so, but I've had like 3 crashes when teleporting/returning.
Merry christmas 
So, I'm beginning to level-up a Scholar, and I plan to craft myself the HQ Vanya set, and meld materias onto it (I really don't like the Darklight set, it's more interesting stat-wise, and did I mention we can dye this beautiful robe?). However, I don't really know what should be melded where... Any advices/links?
I guess I still need to take into account the Crystal Tower stuff, but I haven't been lucky so far with CT parties, and I grew kinda tired of it.

Stats-wise, the CT stuff is better than Vanya even if you meld materia into it. Also, the cost of a full Vanya set is 5625 philosophy tomes, compared to a full Darklight set which is 3510. That is not even counting crafted accessories vs Darklight accessories, for which certainly the crafted accessories are much better but also require many more dungeon runs (for instance, Darklight healer earrings cost 375 tomes vs. Rose Gold Earrings for which one type of the components cost 1125 tomes).
Of course, if you're willing to spend on the plummeting market, then currently it is still 9 x about 6k leading to about 54k per piece of armor you want. At that point you might as well just buy the piece off the market.
It's probably wiser to mix darklight with just the vanya robe and replace with CT gear as you go along.

quick question I connected my laptop to my tv but this games audio is still on the laptop but every other sound is on the tv. Is there a way you can fix that.

Nope! It's roulette for a reason. The only thing you get is the level which is a good indicator for the early dungeons, but not the 50s.

Any way to wear those event items and keep the stats of our current gear ?
When vanity slots are put in I guess.

I'm happy with them reverting it back to normal
Why? The new stats are barely better than the cleric's circlet.
Christmas ruined.
But seriously, this game desperately needs interesting Gear stats like... now. SCH gear diversity is like the worst thing ever, NO ONE of the new items introduced with thew new fights is good for us. =_=

Yea I know, but it saves me a week of myth tomes. I know it sucks for scholars though :/

while doing levequest a pink Item dropped. Whats different about them? The stats look amazing but I can't wear them.

It's probably from a coffer you found. They spawn randomly in levequests. The loot is also a bit random so it won't exactly be for your class each time. Just keep your eye open each time you do leves and hope it gives you something you can use.
Pink is just untradable, like rare/ex from ffxi. A bit special and unique.
Thanks! Figured I grab the Oil with 1800 Philo sitting in my inventory.
But does it have accuracy?
I don't want to think about how WARs tried to hit accuracy cap pre-extreme axe. D:
Pink means it has somewhat randomized stats. It can be better than green stuff of the same level, or worse. And two pieces with the same name can have different stats.
Actually, my game had been crashing a lot on PS3 since the 2.1 patch and it didn't hardly ever before that. Glad they are fixing it.
Crafted gear with a LOT of accuracy materia slotted, myth belt, myth ring were my secret weapons. Was still just barely enough even with food active, so every turn 2 wipe was another toast.
The new titan earring has a buttload of accuracy but if you beat him you'll probably have most of your problems solved by the Dual Haken shortly.
Warrior myth boots help a lot too but I'd like to at least USE these allagan boots I've had forever. I think I have the worst luck imaginable for pants, I've never even seen i60 legs drop.
I don't want to farm Titan for his earrings and I already have the Allagan ones with okay accuracy. Still need an i90 choker and maybe the myth ring, but HQ toast will cover me for coil.
http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/3486325/
The primal accessories I have hurt with 0 accuracy. D: If I went Tremor earrings, it looks like the only way I'd hit unbuffed acc cap without relying on Coil would end up going a bit over it so I don't want to waste those points. Actually I guess I could replace the Rose Gold with Myth, and using Tremor would put me at 477~ acc but I'd lose out on 16 parry. @_@
Enough people need to be able to beat him first.
Too much pain for just okay earrings. D:
Ideally Coil would drop me some Allagan Chokers, Bracelets, and Rings. D: Those bracelets would be amazing right now /cry

Duty Roulette doesn't seem very random. I've gotten Copperbell, Sastasha, and Ifrit every time.
Ifrit is okay, since it's 150k for about 5 minutes of derping.
I want some of the later dungeons so I get bonus XP and actually relevant (for my level) gear

The experience of Crystal Tower pugs is a magical event that everyone should enjoy. Praise Lord Yoship for granting us the opportunity.
(Thanks Drama and Lunicia for saving us from an eternal nightmare)

click towers? Fuck that I'm far too alpha for that kind of job, I'm going to stand in front of behemoth and spam provoke with my AF gear and grand company sword.

So I did Pharos Sirius and it wasn't that hard, maybe I had a good team, but I don't feel like you should be that geared or something.
Funny anecdote: Our first BLM with his iLvl 55 weapon and his DPS below mine (and I was PLD!) ragequitted us after our first boss attempt because we have been swarmed by adds, which was partially his fault. The other 3 were like:"Really?".
Those tanks that want MT and they can't keep hate are the worst. My iLvl 83 ass has to go to click towers while this guy keeps killing us all.
