Guys, tell me a little bit about this game and its current state. I really, really like the design, but I don't want to jump in on a game I might not like at all.
I like the open world kind of MMO, sandboxy, but a few neat quests here and there for fun, epic storys won't hurt either.
So far the MMOs I played and liked are LotRO, Mortal Online (kinda), Eve (except it was soooo boring in space), Darkfall (again, kinda), Fallen Earth quite a lot, Mabinogi, and maybe Warhammer Online and a few others. I did not at all like WoW, Rift, Guild Wars.

Thanks for clearing this up, though!Rawk Hawk said:
Duno about that, there is a pretty solid storyline in FF14 it just takes a while to follow it through due to the level grind.
That being said its much easier to level up a class now and the addition of companies will be expanded upon over the next few patches making piecing together more about the Garlean threat.
I need to run both dungeons soon as well so if anyone's up for that let me know.
Well I decided to patch up and get back on tonight. Did the Winds of Change quest in Limsa and dropped both the old linkshells.
I dont think Ill bother to pick up the linkshell all of you are on now until I feel like Im gonna commit some time to this game on a regular basis. Just gonna solo from time to time.
I will be around though if anyone needs help with anything so feel free to add me to your friends list. Character is Hgplayer Ichi.

Unknown Soldier would totally dig the new catgirl pose.
It's a nyanya pose.

We should take a screen of everyone in the LS doing a pose at the same time.

Whoa. Talk about imposing.
man they have completely destroyed the Archer class in this game now.The cool down times on everything is ridiculous. Multishot is fine I agree it was overpowered but the rest of everything is like 15+ seconds and arrows are 3 sec cool down per shot like anything that can do decent damage to you destroys you before you can fire off like 2-3 normal shots. Trying to solo at a higher level is lame as hell it also doesn't help archers are weak as hell.Almost at 50 with mine then I am retiring it what a shit class now.Also I like alot of the changes but this game has gotten so slow now combat crawls along and isn't enjoyable and auto attack is crap they need to lose that crap.

Really? I thought that archer is even stronger now, I was playing today and now that there's no stamina cost I can use my skills all day long. I was in a party and murdering dlvl 10 mobs pretty quick.Cmagus said:
I was also soloing after the party broke up and it went fairly well. This is what I did:
Multishot, raging strike, ferocity 2, blindside during multishot cooldown, multishot, then invigorate, light shot on the mob, shrieker, heavy shot, light shot, shadowbind 2, multishot, run away out of range, then nock more multishot or finish the mob off with quick nock.
It worked pretty well.
@ravidrath hell yeah man!

Well i have to disagree with you on this one lol although your method is close to mine.Maybe I just suck ass at archer I don't know but I absolutely hate the class.Gonna finish up to 50 and then either finish up my THM or PUG.

You can also effectively use close shot and heavy shot since they don't use up nocked arrows.Cmagus said:
Like, do close shot and heavy shot while you are waiting to fully nock your arrows. Also, if you need that extra bit of damage at the end, and you have nothing left to shoot, you can do a quick multishot > light shot. Only 2 arrows, but it's an instant double attack.
Basically, you have to abuse the fact that there's no more stamina. Just multishot all the time when the cooldown is up. Before, you had to do multi > multi, then do all your other skills, but now you have to space out the multishots, but have free reign to do all your other skills a lot due to no stamina.
