Man I still cant figure out how to repair my weapons. I have the materials to repair my brass dagger, but It doesnt seem to work in the normal synthesis menu.

EDIT: Give me a tell ingame, Teknoman Blade, Shadowlord server.

You have to select the weapon from the inventory menu to see the repair option. I had to equip my blacksmith hammer to repair my gladius and axe.

I plan to really get into blacksmithing so I will help anyone that needs a repair on their weapon, whenever I'm online.

So why does Behest even exist? Just lower the timer on levequests.

I can see it becoming like an NM hunt in the future.

I think you need to talk to the repair guy in hawkers alley, he will give the choice to repair with your own materials or use his.

Although I think this is stupid if this is the only way to repair items, I thought they said we could repair them out on the field, maybe thats a trait or ability learned later on though ?

I decided to give up on thaumaturge because it's just way too slow. I'll probably give it another chance later.

Pugilist however is pretty awesome. :D

Lancer is the first job I tried, but I decided to give something else a try seeing as I was DRG in FFXI. I thought a different weapon would be a breath of fresh air. :p

I didn't know there were daggers in the game. :D

new Famitsu article: http://www.famitsu.com/game/news/1238129_1124.html

translation is on FFXIV core.


After renting a special store, called a stand, you can have your retainer stand there. You can change the color of the roof of your stand to help it stand out.

:D :D :D :D

hope we can place items out for display or decorate it according to what we sale. Like if you sale only armor, you could make it look like an armor shop.. I am going to suggest that.

You can choose the colour of the stands roof and you can display it like another store (like alchemy store, wood working, weapons, clothing etc)
I sadly had nothing to stock my retainer with so I put her in a stand taking up space >.>

Oh you can display it like another store too? Ok, I'm satified. :)

I like the idea of taking up a craft as a main and making house calls to people who need repairs or items crafted outside of my store. My retainer will be my low paid employee that can't find a better job so they stay at my shop to work. :lol

Also, If i'm not mistaken does that say 'Summoning Pool' on the Bald Knoll map? Interesting...


EDIT: Still not found the way into the cave but did get to the isles of umbra.

I knew they would have to update us with more media.

I wish they would talk about new stuff planned for the game. Like players house, the other towns/cities, other transportation, new areas, etc...

Niceeee. I also like how they added "_________ is aware of your presence" to indicate aggro. Seems like there's plugin potential there.

I found Bombs, Lightening Elementals and Megalocrab in Cassopia's Hollow. Two guys killed Megalo with easy, the mage had shell too.

Are elementals still hostile to magic casting?

Edit: If you see my character running around, it's not me - I sold her off.

Dunno. Didn't think to try casting. The lightening elementals didn't atatck the guy healing the guy killing the megalocrab though.

Just finished Legends Adrift (the next story mission at rank 10) Pretty good action cutscenes and I'm curious as to what that noise you keep hearing is that makes you character look like he has a headache. I suppose the next story mission would be at rank 15? or 20?

Also anyone want to do some leves at bloodshore? I don't know if I'll be able to do them alone.

Apparently you can use any (well not sure if its any, but it seems like most) weapon skills with another weapon.

I usually dont like to use axes, but for some reason im really liking Marauder.

Going back online in a little.

So far you can. Not sure if it's intentional though. Marauder is pretty cool. I enjoyed the 5 ranks I played as it.
