If you have to move why would anyone switch to F1,F4,F1,F4 over F1, F4, F4, F1 considering its not only a DPS loss its slower to cast? Its also extremely disingenuous to categorise the reasonable comments people have made about the current BLM playstyle as people wanting a simplified cookie cutter approach (its also amusing because at the end of the day that is ultimately what both the old and new BLM rotation are). Of course one has to make decisions based on the flow of combat, but the current timing of the BLM rotation makes responding to those decisions unduly punishing, especially when you place it in context with the other DPS classes.

Hi guys, sorry if this has been asked recently but how is Ultros from a European perspective? Will I have trouble finding groups before US peak times?
Last time I played I wasn't taking part in a community so I got bored pretty quickly but with Heavensward looking mighty fine compared to Wow's 6.2 I'd like to hop back in. Seems the perfect MMO currently!

I've been fine on Ultros and I'm in the UK. Ran my first dungeon as DPS and wait was 15 minutes. Its literally the first dungeon in the game though so higher levels will be more populated.

Damn wish I'd been able to help someone out and get it myself. Only have the XP boost hat to level 10. 20 or 25 is it, would help for levelling all these professions I'm starting out with.
My entire static is EU (except for me) and they seem to do pretty well!

Is it me or did something happen to all the DPS between 50-60 that made them dumber than usual? It seems like there's also some unwritten rule to either not attack the mob the tank is attacking or make sure that your not fighting the other DPS' mob.
Most DPS sucked already. Now with the new moves is too confusing for them and they run around like headless chickens and pushing buttons.
Respawn, there's a little tab on the screen that will say something like "return to starting point". You'll get respawned to the aetheryte crystal that you marked as home, if you haven't set any crystal as home, by default you'll get sent to your starting town. There is absolutely no penalty for dying, the waiting option is there just in case there's someone near with a revive spell who can revive you (if you ask them and if they want to.)
Hmm, I didn't see that option at all. Was starting to think that I had to wait for someone to stumble on me... haha. Even logged out and back in. Thank you!
I think 58-59 is worse, but basically every even level is horrible.

Cant really make out detail in that picture but I can see what they are going for.
Why are you so wrong
Hmm odd I have so many side quest to do still and I'm at 60. I just began the last zone and dinged 60. Didn't ran a single leveling dungeon more than once. Besides each daily roulettes once per day.
Server transfers are much easier than new character creation on highly populated servers.
You should have no issue transferring, but may need to wait until non-prime time hours to transfer.

58-59 is really easy. Just did it last night. The side quests in Idyllshire give ~3M exp total. I did that and 2 marks bills plus some Vault runs to hit 59.
Oh yeah, first time through it's super easy. I'm leveling my Ninja now without access to a ton of sidequests and it's borderline brutal.

You could just go watch a lore video on youtube, not many even bother with Coil now.

People really should not force a "speed run" mindset on the HW dungeons in DF. Especially not Neverreap/Fractal. It's really frustrating for someone still getting used to their job in those dungeons to succumb to "big pulls please".
I haven't had to deal with this until I did EXDR as PLD today. Was told by a MCH and WHM to do big pulls. I'm freshly 60 and wasn't ready to do it, but was forced into anyway as they were pulling more packs.
I managed to get ahold of things and started grabbing 2-3 packs and doing okay till we got to the final area of Neverreap with the Dhalmels. They hit pretty hard so I wanted to just do those 2 Dhalmels before the last pack, but the healer pulled the last pack anyway midway through the fight and died as I tried to grab them.
MCH kited all the mobs for like 3 minutes not letting me regrab hate and get a handle of shit, then when things finally died he said, "Nice tanking-.-".
Reeeeeeeeeally bummed me out and I don't think I'm gonna do EXDR without friends for a while.

You just ran into some assholes which is unfortunate. 90% of roulttes no one says a damn thing outside of 'Hi' at the start

Thanks, I replied.
No idea why I'm having trouble setting up. I created a SE about and it won't let me log in on PS4. Now it's requesting a one time password which I've never established.
Haha, turns out they hate auto fill-in from the PS4.
Pretty much that yeah.
That being said, EXDR is definitly funnier with friends. Don't let some morons bum you out Spirit.
Hmm, not seeing your message. Try again?
Dunno if this has been posted yet but here it is : Sneak peek of Alexander raid and Alexander stuff at Japan Expo

Those are lalafells AKA potatoes AKA soulless children.
They are all, 100% terrible people and terrible players. This is a truth fact.

One reason is, the Zodiac weapon quest line includes a section that requires doing old dungeons to help power up the weapon. Another, there's a special currency that can be earned by doing them.

I haven't encountered anyone that asked me to do such a thing in more than 2 weeks, you've been just unlucky.
And even if they did, i'd ignore them, i'd gladly let them die if they pull, i'm the tank, not them
you have to be like this if you encounter bad randomsVanillaCakeIsBurning

I think I'm just going to stick with PLD.
Grinding dungeons and stuff for EXP on multiple classes is destroying my soul. If I ever do level another class to 60 it will be once they made some changes to the EXP given out by fates, roulettes, etc.
