Almost to level 50. What is the best way to acquire the tomes to trade for the level 100 items?
Click to expand...

Pretty much everything you do in a group at 50 gives soldiery. The "best" way would be to grind like snowcloak in a static group or something but most likely not happening and DF isn't that fast. What you want to do is first clear all the content you can, as you get bonus soldiery for the first time you do pretty much anything besides the last added content(shiva and the current expert roulette dungeons) and do all the duty roulettes every day that give soldiery(low level, high level, expert, main scenario, trial). Though you need to unlock them first, so work on that. Hunts is also an option, but you need to play for a decent amount of time to catch all the hunts as they pop, takes like 1h30-2hours per train and it happens every 4hours or so.

Very first things you should probably do though is finish your class quests, story quests(up to 50), GC quests then start relic and do that/start working your way up the dungeons. Also do story as often as possible to unlock more content as you go.

Running ST once you have i70 is also much better than running other stuff in general, due to being able to get multiple sources of upgrades, since it drops i100 armor, upgrade items for sold gear to i110, weapon tome for an i100-110 weapon and gives 50soldiery per run, which isn't great but is something.

Dat free Teleport too.

The only thing I don't like is that the game upon having two errors logging into a server kicks you completely out of the game back to the desktop. You have to login through the client again. If this continues you have to do it several times just to check if your game is working again. The same problem persists if you are having a problem with your computer and need to check how to fix the game from crashing. Blizzard's client, from what I remember, would keep your authenticator cached for awhile.

They're trying to put together a static with 0 Lalafell emotes. It'll probably be full of stupid Catgirl jumps. DRG loot is a blessing compared to that.

Hey, remember when Tomo was a Hyur? Dark times, right?

But when Chocolate becomes an Au Ra, all bets are off.

I've tried pretty much every password combination I know so I don't think it's that.

I can remember the answer to my secret question but not the birthday however the reset wants both of them. This is the first time I've seen a service ask for a birthday upon trying to reset the password, which is why I've never made an effort to remember what I entered.

And I can't call support since it just says that the "call cannot be completed" every time I try. I live in Canada so I don't know if that might have something to do with it.

I was really looking forward to playing Heavensward but I have no intention of buying a new account and retreading 100 hours worth of content to get back to where I was.

If any officers on the Ultros GAF guild see someone named "Noire Seregon" online, please kick/report them as I am no longer in control of my account.

Good luck to everyone as it looks like my time with the game ends here. Have fun with the new expansion.

I used chat customer support instead of phone customer support. Works a lot faster and better really, if you keep pursuing it.

SE obviously doesn't want my money. I've been trying to resub for the past two days and I keep getting some Error 406 or 601 when I try to pay with a card. I've even tried multiple cards, but I'm just getting the $1.00 pre-auth fee on my account, then nothing else goes through. I can't even buy Crysta because of the same thing. Apparently, this is a problem with other people, and it's been happening for months now. Typical SE having payment issues, though.

The only alternative is to buy a game time card for $30 (60 days), but I'd rather not do that since it's not a long term solution and I don't even know if I'm going to be playing for that long.

Having some weird issues. Figured I should ask GAF before attempting to contact support. I'll try to keep this simple.

Had beta installed on PS3 since it was released.
Purchased full version on PS3 PSN Store last night.
PSN Store says nothing is available to download. It thinks I already own the game, but I don't, I only have the beta. Uninstalled the beta and still can't download full version.
Full version is downloadable on PS4, for whatever reason.

I already have the PC version and an account. I'm trying to add the PS3 version to Mog Station to get the free 30 days and the PS4 upgrade, though I've somehow already downloaded that version. Mog Station only shows the PC version installed.

Anyone have any idea of what's going on?

EDIT: Game is downloading now, hopefully it takes me through the setup process and not the login screen. Deleted saved data from console.

Yeaaaah, learned that the hard way when I came home, and had to go through some long process to unlock my account, slash put the authenticator back on. I normally use an authenticator, but took it off when I switched phones, and forgot to throw it back on for a few days.

Thankfully, no lasting damage, save for costing my raid group a night. <_<;;

Which I feel horrible about, really!

Please god let Twine be at least a small chance for WoD. Would love to secure at least one for our group when we run it together.

if its like last time, most likely just coats and tomestones now with hunts providing the twine, but who knows if they'll change it based on feedback from last cycle

My fear is that they're going to use Golden Saucer as the 2.5 version of Hunts, which could mean no poverty twine until February. I'm still not sure what they thought they were accomplishing by delaying Sands in ST, so I have no idea if they'd do the same to Twine.

I just want to dye stuff. They can keep the iLevels, I don't care.

The beta client WAS the full client. All you had to do was boot that up update and then register to your service account. I did a similar thing with PS4. I played the beta then early access then when my physical copy came I punched in the code on mog station and just continued to play.

They'll probably increase the amount of Poetics you get for hunts, so they should go back to being an excellent way of capping poetics for a given week.

It's a habit I developed when I was younger. General advice around that time was to not tie personal information to online accounts in case they got compromised (through hacks or other methods).

Finally checked out the new trailer today.

Looks fricking great. The Cloud of Darkness boss fight looks incredible. It reminds me of a boss fight in an over the top action adventure game

Might as well save the headache and get the game time card. Also if you have PayPal I think you can use that on Square's digital store and buy game time card codes from there.

Well a lot of that isn't really worth anything, regardless of what happens(like all the 1 star materials like gold ore and stuff), but the later parts are pretty impressive. I should probably stockpile some things I guess.
Click to expand...

The economy going batshit insane the first few hours of any patch is essentially guaranteed, and having a stockpile of 'worthless' materials headed into the patch is pretty smart since you can get in and exploit before sanity reasserts itself.

He basically looks prepared for whatever weird crap they come up with this patch without having to worry about the prices on easy stuff yoyoing.

GSM is my main deal, I have a couple stacks of rasiqsap and plat ore going into the patch. We'll see what comes of it. I forsee Ehctal market either absolutely crashing because they allow it through other means or shooting up higher. I have 10 blocks of them atm just in case.
