Seems when you craft you select the crafting item/s and the crystal/s are automatically applied to what you have selected, for example you can add items to the crafting window and it will say you don't have enough crystals to make this item.
There is no recipe book, which ticks me off big time.
After making an item you get the chance to refine it further, with the chance of obtaining a +1 item.
Crafting guildleves supply you with temporary items which you use to complete the leve, you obtain money, crafting material and crystals for completion.

Some stuff id like to share..
- Tried to get a Battle Regime thing going with no luck, lag/r0/dc and lack of lowbie mobs were the obstacles, that and the fact that few ppl are high enough to fight harder stuff D:
- I got 100 APoints when i got lvl8, and managed to get lvl4 on conjurer, got cure and switched back to my lvl9 THM that now can cure
- Cure is fully AoE in the sense that everyone around you gets healed, i was running in town and casted it on me and hitted a bunch of people, followed by multple tys:lol
- Poison is awesome it has great DoT.
- I dont know if this changed or i just had good luck before but i targeted a GL mob with an aoe spell and it hitted outsider mobs as well, i died 3 seconds later D:
- Sabotenders are adorable.
- Maybe im missing something but i dont see anywhere the class tnl (to next level), if somebody knows about this please letme know.
All in all i had, again, a great time with the game, filled 3 suggestions (mainly targetting/controls/Guildleve Interface) and 1 bug (falling down in an unexisting hole). I also ended up broke, i spent about 15k in a new level 8 set, which looks exactly the same as the one i was wearing but white:lol

Was refering to the one above physical level.
BTW can you cast cure on other people or is it restricted to just you like in FF11.
I changed the pic above to show you better, its worth mentioning a lot of people were suffering lag and it was effecting their guages, TP/physical experience and class experience.

So seems status effects are fully visable this time.
Status on player is displayed at the top of the screen.
Status for enemies are displayed both next to their name on screen and in the UI.
Status effects for party members appear in the UI next to their name.
The status icon will blink before wearing off.

It always looks like these screens are cluttered with bars, icons, and other junky shit.
Does it look that bad in-game? Or is it less obtrusive while you're playing?

No timers on the buffs, but they flash before they run out and then blink fasters just before they wear off.
This is probably the cleanest UI you are guna see in an MMO. (running the game at a higher resolution will help)
FF11 on the PS2 with 18 party members.
FF14 at 720p

I tried, he said the videos he posted are his friends, so I said so how does he do it, and he didn't reply..
Meh
It's probably not far removed from changing the name in FF11, but I duno how to do that either, I think Khrno said he has some experience with that so maybe he can help.

To change npc names in FFXI you just had to alter the DAT for that character. But I never saw anyone changin their own name that way, but it could be done the same way, try searching some of the darker FFXI sites, there's always very hard to find sites with all this stuff.

Well yeah. They probably want to make sure the game is playable by a majority of testers before they move on.Jinko said:
Not sure why the test is at 1 am. Seems a bit odd to me.
EDIT: Never mind. Your times are GMT, while Square's are in PDT. So they are the normal tests times. Bummer that the test is again on a Thursday. What happened to the promised three tests a week, Square?

Son of a fuck. Finally school's over and I'm ready to sink my teeth into alpha...and the only test this week is the night Iron Man 2 opens. :lol
Next week for sure!!
Next week for sure!!
Alpha is getting pretty fking boring, nobody wants to do anything lol, everyone is grinding like mad and solo, shouted a couple of times for party/quests and got ignored pretty badly:lol . Game didnt seem to crash at all for me today, everything was almost perfect, no weird bugs, minor lag and one force log out because it didnt want to teleport me to camp. I just wish more people i know from FFXI would be on this(you suck rockman/paipai), i want to do so much stuff but just cant alone, oh wellz i hope next time is better....
Anyways, pretty dissapointed in the Imps look, almost exactly as the ones in FFXI >_>
