Where do you get the materials to buy the Dream Hat and other stuff?

Either buy them off the market board for insane prices or do unhidden leather maps. You can get those maps from any level 50 map. Or you can buy them and be super poor instead.

As a healer you need 2 almost full sets anyway because BiS for WHM is half-soldiery half-High Allagan and BiS for SCH is also half-soldiery and half-high allagan only the halves are swapped.
I imagine casters would bear no differences but I'm pretty sure tanks have their own little intricacies.

So let's assume that I'm poor. In fact, don't assume. I'm poor. I'm thinking of doing Animus Bow Novus with Crit and Det only up to Materia III, then the remainder can just be Acc and call it a day. Is this a reasonable thing to do for someone who isn't wiping their ass with money in this game?
Yes, this is perfectly reasonable. Just take care not to accidentally reduce a stat.
...And even then the tradeoff I made still put me at a net profit.
That's exactly what I did and it seems fine.

Borrow money from Dramasaur, she's a high roller.
secondary stats are nice but they aren't going to make or break you as a successful BRD. any points into "optimal" stats help but really aren't that essential.
i wouldn't fret too much over not being able to get a full crit/det novus

You can already have an i110 bow with non optimal stats. Why get another one?
Just use Rosenbogen and gradually work on those IVs! I believe in you

In Japan, yes.
In other news, joined the i110 club (though a few pieces of my gear are courtesy of hunt poverty sands).

Huh, another Limsa-based event. Guess the two story-quest/starter cities are finally getting phased out in favour of Ishgard and Rev Toll.

It's going to keep happening until Kagari wins the victory over herself and finally admits she loves Maelstrom.
i hear that ultros place is pretty cool
Is it worth to upgrade the Relic Weapons all the way, or should I ignore them and try to get the Coil drops or the Weathered weapon upgraded?
I'm going to start the Atma quest today, but I wonder if it's worth it. The High Allagan Blade and the Burtgang are better than Curtana Novus.

That really depends on you. Weathered weapons/sands are much easier to get now so they are an incredibly fast avenue to get an i110 weapon, but when 2.4 rolls around with the ilevel increase relic will probably be one of the easier ways to get a new weapon. (Assuming you're willing to put in the time for whatever new hoops they want you to jump through. 50 Battlecraft 3 and 1 of each Primal demimateria, plus new Ramuh and Leviathan demimateria, here we gooo) Personally I just did, or am in the midst of doing, mine simply because it's something to do.
Novus is better than Burtgang, but coil weapons will likely always be best in the game no matter the current ilevel bracket. So if you are just concerned with always having the best, then the relic will likely never be worth it for that goal, outside of using it to clear the content to get that allagan weapon.
Do it.
It isn't worth to blow 10 milion for a 3 months weapon. Novus is fun because it's a long-term goal to work toward, but that's it.
Besaid, it's not like you really NEED these secondary stats in this game.
Novus isn't a 3-months weapon, it's gonna be upgraded further.
Although that's exactly the problem, hard to predict what you're gonna need in the long term.
Yes, I was talking about the final product. Weapons in FFXIV don't last for more than 3 months, 6 at best. Also expansions completely reset progresses in these kind of games.
Hence, it's useless to blow too many money on it IMO.
Your fault Wakka, I'm actually replaying FFX HD right now. <_<
Why apologize for this? They put in hunts so people could catch up on gearing. For a class like scholar that needs a lot of unweathered stuff to get BIS on the left you wouldn't have been able to get everything in coil before the next patch, unless your party gave you every sand.
Yeah but,
Could have some cool story stuff too.
What are the chances of my connection tanking if I tried to play on Ultros? I'm using a European based server just now (live in the UK) and everything is dandy most of the time, but the game tells me my connection isn't as good if I switch over to another data centre in the US etc. Probably not the best time to ask since I'm just getting friendly with my FC, but it'd be good to go with GAF if I ever have a need to change things up.
On another note, I'm still having far too much fun with this Faire event.

Decided to transfer my character (and my brother's) to Ultros so we can join you guys. Playing this game alone is too boring
Do you guys still have room in the Free Company?
Yes, there is room. Sign up and apply at neogaf.guildwork.com and then submit an in-game request to join the Free Company. Instructions for that are also on the site.

Does anyone play this on ps3? Or is pretty much everyone on PC? I'm thinking about getting this for my ps3 but I don't wanna buy a dead game

All the EU/NA servers are located in the same data center which is in Canada. There shouldn't be any difference at all (YMMV due to number of players on the server, server load, etc.). The purpose of the separate EU servers are strictly for time zone grouping. We have quite a few EU and other non-NA region members on Ultros. Depending on what part of the EU you are from, it may be quieter on the server during the week at your peak time, but there is a lot of overlap on the weekend.
PS3/PS4 players are on the same servers as PC players. Nothing to worry about (other than the expected PS3 hardware limitation issues).

Awesome, thanks!
Damn it, seriously? If I'd known this I'd have checked before pouring hours into my character on Moogle.
Ah well, I'd feel bad for my FC if I transferred now. Thanks for letting me know there shouldn't be much of a difference, though; if I ever feel like switching servers or if this FC doesn't work out, I know where to go!
I play on Ultros without any issues from the UK.

Not being able to log in because the PSN on PS4 cannot even "connect to the server"...a bit annoying.
Infinity is a large number.
Man I thought Tales from the Calamity was going to be in-game. Apparently it is just actually short stories.

I did calculate how many will NOT fail.
It made me even more depressed.
I watched a few of them before I got a good grasp on what's going down, and also rewrote the rotation accounting for my own role, where I am to stand and what to cast.
Here is what I watched to get the general idea of mechanics:

And then I also googled a POV for WHM without commentary to check out the flow.
And here's a concise summary of divebomb bullshit:
