Well I really tried to do dungeons for my first book but with queues of over an hour and no pop so far, I think I should go the smart route and just stock up on UAT so I can at least get a weathered weapon.

Aren't you glad you farmed all those Atma.
That's odd. I've done 6 books since 2.3 came out and I've not waited for a dungeon as a DPS for over 20 minutes, even when I'm down to 1 to do.
Now camping some of those FATEs... That's a different story.
That needs 3 weeks or more of collecting soldiery points.

Well I am annoyed I bothered trying to farm a second set but this atma weapon has been sitting around for quite a long time, unused and unloved
True but that is a tiny issue at best considering how stupidly easy it is to cap soldiery. I usually cap within a few days. Between DR and a random hunt here or there, I'm good.

Made my first spring dress. God I hope it sells soon.
Just an FYI, if you all don't see me online as much in the coming weeks. Been mulling it over all day, and I think I'm gonna step back a little and play less often. Not leaving the game, I just want to enjoy the summer a bit more thoroughly before it starts cooling off again.
What, like out... side? What is this madness?
I need to get paid and have some beer in the sun soon. Damn poorness
Can I have your gil.
Amazing how abusive newer players can be in this game.
I decided to try running SV-HM to get some drops for GC seals, and the other players stopped everything once adds came out, resulting in a wipe. One then proceeded to throw out tons of insults at me because, "I was a trash player," who didn't understand that I was supposed to pick up all the adds and take them to the center, so he wouldn't have to aim.
...yes, remove 1/4th of the parties DPS output, half if the healer stopped as well, just so one player doesn't have to aim a cannon.
What's more amazing is that he accused me of, "never doing hard content like this before," which was hilarious, considering that a large portion of my gear is High Allagan by now.
Anyhow, don't mean to rant, but this is just a counterpoint to all those stories about players being abusive to newbies. Sometimes it's the other way around.
I did Stone Vigil Hard at the weekend and that fight with the canons is such bullsh*t. I wish they would just drop it with the canons already. It's just not fun and they should leave it alone.
Managed to have a proper play session this weekend. Unlocked a bunch of new dungeons and EX
R so I think I am set in terms of stuff to do for a while: collecting soldiery and running new dungeons. Then there was the hunt. I actually did my first proper bit of it. It's definitely more this:
Than this:
And I do think the rewards should be toned down. Literally following a herd of people and zerging some poor creature in seconds gets you like 20 sol, 80 myth etc. That's crazy. You used to have to do an actual dungeon, with bosses etc for that.
I'm not quitting, I'm just going to be doing bicycle rides more frequently. XD

Oh, the canon battle is horrible, easily the worst designed piece of content in the patch. It's a shame because the other two boss battles in that dungeon are pretty good all things considered.
And yes, they could definitely stand to tone down the hunt rewards a bit.
If they do, I really hope they don't announce it on the live letter unless a patch is that same day, otherwise it'll be even worse with people trying to get the rewards before the nerf.
Can I have your account.

People will complain regardless, if they do nerf hunts, I'd rather people get their whine and cheese out of the way first.
The live letter will begin shortly. If someone has a link to someone doing a live translation, I'm interested.

Hey guys!
I need some help. I can't decide what to cosplay for the fanfest. I need some help just landing in on a thing. I was thinking the obvious choice - Minfilia, but if I can avoid wearing a wig, I'd love that, since I hate these things. I have super long hair and wearing a wig is like asking to sweat like a pig.
Was thinking about Sailor Uniform, but that's a bit simple. Tataru was my other choice, but it'll be challenging to make her clothes light, as it'll be quite hot in there.
Feed me suggestions gaf, you're my only hope >:

If you're not cosplaying Red Mage, you're doing it wrong and should be ashamed of yourself.
Joke aside, it depends on your tastes and your skills as a cosplayer. I'm afraid I won't be able to help much here. In any case, just go with what you like.

As long as you get the boob window right nobody is gonna complain if you don't have a wig

I don't like Minfilia. I think she looks really boring.
If it had to be between Minfilia and Tataru I'd say Tataru.
You could do a long hair version of that white hair elezen girl in Coil. That'd be pretty uh, pretty.

Lol. Well, I also want to avoid a situation in which someone assumes I'm a booth babe, because that would seriously hurt my feelings. So I'd rather go for the 'safer' options.
@Ken I would love to do Nanamo, but that's a seriously complex cosplay. I think Minfilia is as complex as I can go.
Red mage's a good idea lol

guys is normal that ffxiv's twitch channel doesn't appear in the app?
anything is normal with the twitch app as it is in fact, total garbage.

Funny thing, my initial idea was Nashu.
If you want to upgrade to Novus it will require Materia, you can buy them... some are very expensive. Or you can Spiritbond your own gear, you'll have I make the gear yourself or buy it, lv 45 - 49 gear requires Felt, which is pretty expensive right now.... 3,500 Gil for each NQ piece and a whiple Spiritbond set is like 10 Felt and lots of electrum.
I had a very productive weekend, desynthesized enough Artisan Spectacles to acquire 2 MOAR Supra Primary Tools! That makes 3 down 7 to go, I'll eventually get the Fishing Pole, but those Silver Soverigns killed all motivation, I just don't have the patience.
I reached Desynthesis level 100.00 for Goldsmith, this gives me 100% success rate on the Artisan Spectacles and all Darklight Jewelry... going to make some spreadsheets with the Distribution rate for each ingredient. I'm not sure if dlv factors into the rarity of desynth components, but I'm sure getting much more Fieldcraft III at dlv 100.00.

Frontlines is certainly the hot topic Glad glamours are in though as they don't really need to show what gear you're wearing since it's such a wonderful clusterfuck

How bout increasing the rewards for the dailies because as they are they're so minimal they're not effin' worth it...
I don't know why I was expecting them to go into any depth at all on the imbalance of Hunts.

I see they talk about the expansion relatively often, have they mentionned what their estimated plan for the expansion release was? Not a release date obviously not even a month but more like a general approximation, 6months, 1year, 1year and a half, that kind of thing.
