I got a full set of Crimson gear. With that I think I'm done with CT for a while. Bought all my i90 accessories and belt, now I need to farm myth for the AF2 set and upgrade my relic to its final form.

Now's a good time to do the EX primals and Ultima HM right? I'm at i81.

81 is fine for Ultima.

I'm nearly finished getting atmas, I've been casually doing it a few hours a day and have 9, and I still have no idea what weapon to get.

My scholar is i90, but I don't really have any intention to do coil anymore. I never beat turn 5 and got tired of raiding. My whm is i89, it uses almost all the same gear, and I only use it for atma farming because blizzard 2 is great as a low level crossclass.

My dragoon is i76ish, I play this occasionally in duty finder, dailies, etc. Has a zenith gae bolg.

In this case, what atma weapon would you pursue?

So I'm trying to put GC gear on my retainers
They both hit level 20

Every time I try to slot in the lvl 20 Gear, it gives me the your not linked to said GC, even though I just purchased the damn gear from the GC

Sucks I burned seals to find out you can't put GC gear on retainers

Retainers can't join a GC so the gear won't work.

I dunno why, but some of the worst people I've pug with are usually drgs. Had some guy flipping out in the Lost City of Ampdapor at people for just disconnecting. lol

We have short tempers.

Getting consistently hit by cleaves takes its toll on us.

It's a rough life.

Guess its finally time to take on T1-5 lol. Is Ultima Hard mode any...well harder than the stuff from coil? Still have Ultimate Ballad and Garuda EX taunting me on the side of my screen.

You aren't filling in the "one time password" field, are you?

I think they need to rename the One-Time Password field. It's amazing how many people put stuff in there without thinking about it. >.>;

Ultima Hard is really easy, but finding a pug that can run it without screwing up some mechanic of the fight is a nightmare. Makes it not really worth the hassle of doing more than once for a single i80 drop.

its even more confusing because when you go to make anew pasword it allows you to fill in the one time password box even if you dont have one and will go through in creating new password.

also which world shall i pick for eu ?

A whole day of Titan extreme, in the end the farthest we got was looking at a superbomb with 2 tanks&2healers and a summoner, but at least I know now that tank lb3 is useless in that scenario

I wouldn't call it really easy. Had to get a full GAF all star group to beat it and even then it took about three wipes. There's a couple of phases that can wipe you if you don't have good party coordination (thinking the aethereal booms) and then at the end you have to have the tank lb3 ready to go at the right time.

I imagine with full echo it's a good deal easier though.

Ultima HM, is probably easier than anything in Coil, with the possible exception of Cuduceus, or Ads when tackled with the enrage mode strat.

Garuda EM is in roughly the same league as T4, though I'd say T4 is the more difficult of the two encounters.

Titan, in some ways may be more difficult than T5. Titans mechanics are simpler and the fight isn't as long, Buuuut, it's a lot more difficult to recover from mistakes in Titan, and the dodging mechanics are incredibly strict.

Its hard to make terribly direct comparisons though, as these are two very different fights.

Never beat Ultima HM...usually because everyone dies in the last magitek bit phase...meh

That phase becomes a lot easier with even one or two Bits killed off, since each attack comes from the same angle no matter who it targets, killing off a bit or two creates little sections of the arena that takes considerably less fire.

So, what the DPS should do in that phase, is to all target a single Bit, then make a clockwise or counterclockwise circle in the room. The bits don't last long at all when everyone is concentrating on them, especially if the Off-tank detaches and helps out.

I see I spoke just too soon about the questions part. Here we goooooo~!

Bought a ps4 for this game. I'm fucking pumped.

How long will the character transfer process take? Do I need both systems on at the same time?

There is no character transfer process. You do not need both systems on at the same time. The license transfer will occur on the MogStation. This will happen on April 11th. You do need to have logged into the PS3 version at least once to complete the license transfer.
 
What would be the best coil to start of with ? I've got ilvl73/75 WHM/MNK/WAR
Depends on what you want to take into coil.

As WAR and MNK you can start doing T1 runs and gearing up, specially WAR. WHM tho I highly recommend gettig your myth stuff first because the drop tables are rather unforgiving.

It's just your settings (some of them anyway), and you just need to log into the PS3 and select the option in the bottom right and do whatever it tells you to do, then do the same on PS4 afterwards. I sorta wish that stuff was just there innately and would show up on any platform, it's part of why I stalled out when jumping to PC.

I wonder if it'll be possible to transfer to PS4, then rebuy on PS3 for a month + PS3 access? That sounds kind of inane so I doubt I'll do it, but I would've liked the option to play on both just because.

In defense of DRG's, and melee DPS in general. Because melee DPS tends to be very dependent on position, and have more involved rotations, it's far easier to tunnel vision on those classes.

That of course, doesn't excuse poor attitudes. Also, well practiced Monks and Dragoons are usually beyond the tunnel vision stage.
