I'm about to make a new character and give it another go since about 2 months after release. What's the most in-demand role right now? I used to play DPS but the duty finder was just brutal.

So we beat Stone Vigil :D wiped quite a bit on the last boss and the DPS left... funnily enough. I think it's just coincidence but when that DPS left, the next DPS that joined us (who were both bards, the one who left and the new one), we won.

Dodging was hard in the boss, especially because sometimes I know I should go one way but my brain tells me to go another even though I know I shouldn't? Mixed signals or something :/ same with my Fiancee. Zooming the camera out helps a lot of course. Along with extended practice lol.

Apart from that, dungeon went as smoothly as it did last night. Including wiping to some surprise elementals after the second boss. (seriously, different people (apart from us) but we died on the same exact bit).

Now to continue with the story and our road to level 50 :)

edit: also I hope they fix whatever the hell is wrong with auto-run on the controller :/

Does anyone know if Prellis Vilmont is back online? I haven't logged in for a week and last I heard he was going to be gone for a while.

Boo maintenance. =|

I'm doing the relic quest. Holy crap so many hoops to jump through. Now I need to beat AK again. Did it late last night for the 1st time. Demon Wall breaks men's wills.

Just lost a roll for Allagan Boots 11 to 10. So salty. :|

EDIT: Got the chest piece YEAHHHH! Then got booted. Hope it's in my inventory after maintenance.

Has there been more noise made about how people still need to queue up to one hour for Titan Extreme and similarly to get into CoB on weekends? This is worse than progress quest. You'd think these types of problem would be long resolved by now.

Bah, I thought maintenance was tomorrow. Unlocked Haukke Manor yesterday, and found I had a bit to do as a healer there compared to other dungeons. It looks like the game is trying to punish mistakes a fair bit more now. Groups that I was with and knew what to do were a breeze to heal, and I could contribute to DPS regularly. Others not so much. Lots of standing in bad stuff, not interrupting things, and wondering why suddenly a maid servant has come and joined the fight. Glad I went through the trouble of getting swiftcast, as I've had to use insta-rez a couple of times. >_<

I'll probably do a bit of leveling as WHM this week, but I want to get Arcanist to 30 so I can unlock summoner as well. Still leaning that way as the DPS job I'd like to do. Also gotta start leveling crafting. I've got so much materials in my inventory, and my retainer is loaded up too. XD
 
Anyone who ever said pugging Turn 4 was easy is a LIAR! Joking aside, I joined a group in PF that needed a WHM and except for a minor hiccup on Caedeus, we one shot everything else...well we didn't take on Twin but it still felt nice to down Turn 4 with a pug group, now just give me that alagan healing robe...

You can join my static for a week. We seem to get it every time.

Jesus Fuck, SE started way too early with roll-outs for 2.15

Wineport was packed with so many people doing Coil and just getting booted

It was hilarious seeing 90000 followed by good ol' 3102
Repeated 4 times, our group gave up

Will do Turn 4 + Primals Ex tomorrow, no way we were gonna take a chance on 90k during loot period
Now let's see what 2.15 fixes and breaks

Just lost a roll for Allagan Boots 11 to 10. So salty. :|

EDIT: Got the chest piece YEAHHHH!

Casting, Aiming, Maiming, Striking?

I need the extra detail yo'!

Well most just do their Primals Ex on Monday Morning Reset or Wait before or After Coil
So most don't need for the week, most have drops (farmed status), horse mount not a big need
Only time you see Ex runs, it's mostly sold runs

Dayum, hopefully they drop again.

Healing! Downed turn 4 and looted it a few seconds before getting booted. Hopefully it saved.

Nice!

Hey at least it wasn't a total loss hopefully!

Was nice to get turns 1-5 and Ifrit/Garuda Extreme out of the way in a little less than 2 hours tonight. Wish we had time for Titan, but we'll do that later.
 
"On rare occasions, a fourth treasure chest may appear upon defeating the last boss of the Labyrinth of the Ancients. This fourth treasure contains a Dimension Blade fragment that can be used to create the Savage Arc of Triumph furnishing."

They added a new rare furniture to CT...randomly pops as a 4th treasure chest after the last boss...all members of the alliance can roll on it...I think some more all GAF runs may be in order.

They're increasing the frequency that Fates appear? I thought they were already pretty frequent. It should be humorous watching packs of people running around zones even more now. =p

Players will now also accumulate GP when playing as a Disciple of War, Magic, the Hand.
GP will no longer reset when changing to a non-gathering class.
An issue wherein Warriors could be knocked back even while under the effect of Holmgang.
An issue where in the cost of Teleport displayed when inside an estate was incorrect.

Good.

Bugs:
The Demagogue Mask may be dyed to a different color.

Bad.

Awesome.
 
Once a miniature aetheryte has been set, Estate will be added to your list of teleport locations.
* Although the miniature aetheryte cannot be set as a favored destination, the cost of teleportation will be the same as that of favored destinations.

I approve of this.

Awww, it says they increased the difficulty of some of the battlecraft escort leves, including everyone's favorite naturalist one. Wonder if it's enough that you can't just run through and finish in 20 seconds anymore.

Best patch note:

Duty Roulette: Low Level has been adjusted to improve matching for mid-level dungeons.

This made me happy too. I swear the past week has had me muttering "More effin' pirates..." far too often running that thing. >_>
