lvl 9 gladiator
lvl 4 lancer
lvl 4 pugilist at the moment
I want the buffing and HP steal abilities, sounds like a good combo.
I'm still bogged down with work (and will be throughout the next week), but I put in about 4 hours total yesterday (and idled the rest of the time). I only had one crash and that was because my laptop went to sleep.
So far I like the game, but I really hope these opening areas have more mobs at launch. I was able to find a few areas with quick respawning mobs and no competition, so grinding them wasn't too bad, but class SP feels a bit slow (compared to the early levels of FFXI).
I tried a couple levels of GLD and the SP seemed the same as when I was leveling CON, so I don't know what all the mage complaining was about (in regards to how fast you can level). SE definitely needs to add some way to get your MP back without going back to the crystal. I didn't see any SP gain difference from using the dart as opposed to spamming spells, so I stuck to the dart most of the time to conserve MP, but I don't see that working at higher levels.
I've done all of my leves for the time being and will look into crafting and traveling to the other cities over the next couple days (along with grinding).
I'm also down to party, but my jobs are still fairly low and I probably won't be on until later tonight.

Gladiator - 2 (anyone know where I can find a rank 1 shield in Ul'dah?)

I hope that Lindblum is able to stay up. When I was creating my character it was the only server with three chocobos. That's a lot of chocobos!

If you are a conjurer I think you get the Tranquility ability early on that you can add to your action bar for 0 points and it will return a good sized amount of mp on a 10min cooldown. I never seemed to have issues with mana as my conjurer.

I've finished like 5 of my battle levequests. Will be on tonight around 9pm EST if anyone wants to group up and let me heal them since I just got cure!
Where do I grab Alchemy in Gridania? I've been looking for that!
Mouse lag is gone and menu lag seems fixed. Good job with that. Alt tab still isn't. Laughable job there. I'm Galka of course. Best race. Period.
I doubt I'll do much this beta though. No idea why they give you the option to start out as a crafter. Seems rather stupid.

Just stick around the camps until some battlewarden NPC comes byzlatko said:

That's Ul'dah area right? This is why I created a new character. The outside of town is seriously void of all mobs. The only ones I was finding were incredibly tough lizards.
Starting in Ul'dah was the biggest mistake. After a new character, server, town change it was like a different game because I was having a good time. :lol
@Renta
Which town are you at? I'm at Limsa and I spent a lot of time around the camp area outside of town, but never had this NPC come by. Does he come outside of the camp area? Into it? How often?
I need to be all over this form of exp when the game is back up, because too many good camping spots were taken up by other parties.

Yay back in

Probably more will be added for launch, but at this time is very hard to find any. Such an open space, and almost no mobs at all.
In Gridania you have all these corridors and small spaces and they all have mobs, there's always something to fight, although they could be better distributed, hard to find green mobs at lv10/rk8.

Your game crashed too? So it wasn't just me?
Khrno said:
Yeah I wish it worked like FFXI. The closer you are to a city, the easier the mobs get. Its so random right now.
I actually saw a group wipe before because they were killing easy coblyns but there was a high ranked coblyn right there in the group. They werent paying attention and well, they attacked it :lol

Restarted in LL and actually stayed mage. I have to run back but I'm managing the MP situation. Unlike XI the base attack's are pretty powerful.

So where can you get new gear and such? I'm in LL and have only found the lvl 1 job weapons.

Ok. I decided to do some Crafting elves once I found out they provide the mats for you and they are on a who new set of 8 (so I can alternate leves, 1 day for combat and the fun stuff, 1 for crafting and the boring stuff).
I have no clue what to do with the crafting. I assume one of the tutorial leves covers this (but they are grouped with the combat ones so I didn't take it). I've managed to screw up making boots for Momodi and I've only managed to make 1 bronze dagger for her through sheer luck. I don't get wtf to do. I use normal then it either fails or succeeds and if I try other it's the same. Is it all random? or am I supposed to know when to use each one? When do I wait (should I?) whats with the time bar?

Man, this game seems to crash a whole lot for everyone. And at the worst times too, like during our Behest... :lol
Anyways, it was awesome partying up with fellow gaffers today!

Does anyone know when you start getting crystals, and not shards?
I am trying to level up Goldsmithing a bit and the level 1 synth of making a Copper Nugget (Which is used to make alot of other items) requires:
Copper Ore x4
Fire Crystal x1
I have so many freakin shards but no crystals, so I cant even make a level one synth. And yes I have completed all of the Goldsmithing Leves
