You should get more skill speed for bard! 621 and you are golden.
I was hoping for a totally different answer but I guess they're sticking to their guns.
Yoshi is a chill guy. Just don't ask him about parsers.

time to get that axe
I have a question that I couldn't find an answer too in the OP's post so bare with me.
I made an account during the beta for this game and I decided I would pick it up later but I had missed the last sale of the game so I need to know if what I'm going to do is possible without messing up my friends account. I have a PS4 but would like to buy the PS3 version of this game because it's cheeper atm but my friend has the game on his PS3 already so I wanted to know if I got game for PS3 and did the transfer to the PS4 from his PS3 is ok. I don't own a PS3 and wanted to make sure I could do this from his PS3 and when I transfer my account to my PS4 he would still be able to play his game fine. I know this is kinda complicated and most would say just get the PS4 version and avoid this but im short on money right now and I'm gonna trade some stuff in to get it. Thanks.

skill speed is not that bad for warriors. it was pretty in vogue for a while. i was making good bucks with those materia stacks on my retainers.
still undecided if i should meld it on new accessories. it is certainly more fun than waiting.

Pugi / Monk is probably one of the few classes with a real rotation / placement.
Haven't got one yet tho, trying to get the Animus on my warrior before playing a next role.
Tho i can say that Bards are a no go for me, if you want boring 4 button spam go for it
I'm not sure this would be possible with the PS version - as far as I recall the username is hard coded on the client, which means you won't be able to login with a different SE account name.
Unless that hard coding disappears if you run it under a different profile? I haven't tried so I'm not sure, but that might work.
Maybe I'll give it another try then, with me standing south. Perhaps me blaming the PS4 was unfair of me, and that it's mostly just down to EU general latency. Maybe my ISP's just not doing a good enough job. Whatever it is, I have no problems dodging plumes on HM on my WAR. :/
PGL started off as me getting my subjob for my future BRD. Now, my ARC's lvl20, and my MNK's lvl48. There's something very satisfying when you get Greased Lightning 3 and you're juggling combos, DoTs and buffs/debuffs to make everything work.

are you playing on wireless? go wired and it'll be much easier.
The game links the console, PSN account and client together. So while it may be possible I don't think it's all that straight forward. I don't think you will be able to pop the disc in and go for it.
The appearance of that top is race-specific, if you're not a Highlander it won't look like that.
You will have to add your PSN account to your friend's PS3 and try to link your PSN account to your game license. However, I'm not sure how smoothly that will go.
It's been a very long time, but I've run out of HQ materials to sell. Talking about Gold Nuggets, Darksteel Nuggets, Hippogryph Leather, Twinthread & Undyed Felt. Even the materials to make these items have become pretty scarce... NQ Darksteel Ore selling for 600 Gil each? WTF?
I tested ilv 30 equipment to Spiritbond, got a nice cache of Type II Craftsman Materia, then went on to try for some Type IV's out of 2 sets I got 1 Competence IV. That Spiritbonding potion is a godsend, I didn't even have to meld or use Aetheryte Rings, 2 sets in ~ 45 mins in a party in the South Shroud killing Water Sprites.
There was a team if 4... one guy was making gear, giving it to his friends to continue to bond, I took notes on what they were converting and what Materia they were getting, it was like they were professionals at this.

Apparently Futtbuck Senior was not an acceptable name and it had to be changed. I guess they didn't like Futtbuch Senior either, lol. They threatened me with suspensions.

That was a good interview with YoshiP. I'm surprised how in tune he is with recent MMO trends, I wouldn't have expected that level of savvy from a Japanese console developer.
Really excited for FFXIV in the coming months.

What do you mean by this?
So in other news I finally saved up 1500 myth for the first book. I was thinking that while I was doing that I would save up 1500 for the next and maybe a little extra to upgrade the few slots I have ilvl 70 gear. I got really lucky with the FATEs, so I'm thinking I'm gonna be done waaaay before I come even close to raising enough myths. So it'll be the myth grinding that will be slowing me down. That's a little disappointing. They really need to lower the price on those damned books.
Nah, I went wired back in January after I was getting 90k after 90k on my PS3. I don't even want to imagine it on wireless!
You used to be able to switch between input languages by pressing ~. Like for example between English and Japanese or English and Russian.
It's not available since 2.28, in fact there's no method to switch language at all, it's English all the time.
crazygambit

I still don't follow, sorry. How does input language affect anything? I don't think the game has autocorrect. Or is for those default messages that you receive in the language you have you GUI setup to?
If it's the language of your keyboard, you can change that in the PS4 device settings.
I really don't understand what you're talking about.
He is saying you were able switch input language on-the-fly before 2.28, but you can't anymore. Having to go to device settings is not on-the-fly switching.
Not sure why people thought it would be differently, unlike Wolf's Den this event is specifically categorized by Grand Companies, and you have to explicitly register for one the 3 companies (a second time) to even participate, your PvP achievements are also tied to your PvP GC affiliation etc. and Yoshida mentioned from the start that your GC affiliation would matter in PvP for Frontlines. The good thing is your affiliation isn't set in stone, the bad thing is I think changing to a new affiliation resets your rank (but I don't know if it saves your former rank if you were to go back to your old affiliation later, if so it shouldn't be too hard for all friends to change affiliations to a specific one for several matches and switch back to your normal).
Guess PvP queues for the smaller GC's are going to be pretty short
.(for those wondering, a french mod on official forum mentioned you will need to be affiliated with the same GC in order to play together)

I wasn't able to this time, but was told Yoshi hates that subject by someone else lol.

Reppin' Twin Adders!
It used to be possible to switch what language your keyboard was inputting very, very easily on the PS4, particularly compared to the PS3 where if you wanted to input Japanese, you had to switch your system language to Japanese, because an English-language system didn't even allow for a Japanese keyboard.
In a game where you're playing with people from all over the world and might want to type in several different languages besides the one you're playing the game in, on-the-fly keyboard switching is very important. Having to step out of the game and go to device settings is a big annoyance.
I believe he's mentioned something about target dummies that help you parse your damage, although I believe that's only for the PVP side of things. For PVE, and a parser in-general, I wouldn't expect anything like that. Basically, just don't talk about parsers, and you should be fine. Still, having one built in-game would be convenience, but it's not really needed.
That being said, I don't personally use one. I'd find it too distracting in-battle if I did. >_<
[Also, thanks for the interview, Kagari.]

Hello guys,
I am thinking of grabbing this tomorrow for the PS4 still worth it? or am I too late?
I have this MMO itch that needs scratching and seeing that there is no Wildstar for Mac and TESO got pushed back to god knows when I was thinking of getting this.
Thanks for any opinion you throw my way
Appreciated!

NC always best Yoshi-P interviews; thanks for sharing.
Been thinking since announcement of Rogue > NINyou guys think we'll see addition of jobs for existing classes?
I'd assumed that ACN was setting a precedent, and remember alternate job roles from 1 base class being part of discussion during beta... but my progress is slowww and I have no sense of the best way to balance this game.
Was ACN a one-off?

There's never a bad time to join!
We still have a few open slots in the FC [as far as a I know], and content is continually being released. They've also added a lot of "Quality of Life" changes to the game since it's launched, so those new to the game will feel even more comfortable jumping in.
We welcome you.

Thanks mate, I am psyching myself up for the game by reading up on stuff and deciding before hand what class/race to play.
cheers again!
Definitely will be, and there's a good chance that some of the expansion jobs will be from existing classes. NIN (and likely the new gunner) needed it's own class because they do not fit with any current class. There are however plenty of other jobs that could fit, stuff like Geomancer for CNJ, Ranger for ARC, Beserker/Viking for MRD, etc.
I'm not sure what you mean, you don't need to have an overlay with constant dps/hps/whatever display if you don't want to. Only overlay I use is for HP%, can look at parser info after fight if needed (whether for fight as whole or a specific time frame of the encounter).

You think you big time? You gonna die big time!
Enjoy! A Realm Reborn is one hell of an experience, even moreso when you have great people to play with.
Oh, so you can bring it up as needed? Interesting. I wasn't sure if it was something that was prominently displayed without an option to minimize/hide it.
Thanks for the clarification!
