I thought they got better with it as the main scenario went along, the scions were generally of doing their thing and they call you in at last minute as the "nuclear option", but they still managed to get stuff done. The lead up to Leviathan and such had them seeming fairly competent from what I recall.

The lead up to Leviathan was when they were at their most competent, if you ask me. Since then though, they've mostly been hanging around the Rising Stones, and handing out quests from time to time.

I mean, I guess there was that business with the Sylph dopplegangers, but that's about all they've done since then. Keep in mind, the Leviathan quest was almost a year ago, that's a lot of time to sit un-used.

 

[chrono01]

nooooooo

I don't know. The flesh-per-pound on Highlanders seem to be worth a lot more than a tiny Lalafell.

More flesh = bigger sacrifice = better reward

Sounds like a good idea to me.

 

[scy]

Well, if it means Kagari getting some usable loot ...

I'll just let Ifrit DPS for me.

we don't sacrifice normal sized people until the evil lalas are all burning in hell where they belong

whoaaaa

My "Operation Demon Tabard of Aiming" lasted 26 runs but is now over!. Yay!

I'm pretty sure lalafell getting access to the Manderville pose got rid of the last reason to keep hyurs around.

Pretty sure.

No expenses spared!

loooooooool. that 1 parry

I wonder how much Piety I need to put on my Bravura to squeeze out another Flash.

That pirate wench has more balls than the lot of them. I was amazed when she just pulled out a gun and shot that Sahagin dude.

So here's a question to crafters who sell their services (on the party finder and elsewhere):

If someone wants something made and they provide you with all the HQ materials, and while crafting the item using their materials, you disconnect and fail the craft. How do you go about handling the situation?

Never log in again.

This sounds about right.

Guess it depends on what you're crafting. I'd probably buy mats and craft it again and take the loss even though it sucks. End of the day, they gave you mats and you lost them, regardless of the reason. If you can't afford what you're crafting as a service, you probably shouldn't be crafting it.

 

[Item Box]

This sounds about right.

They could also move to a new server if they want to keep playing on that character

 

[Stoof]

To anyone who's played the PS4 version, how well would you say it compares to the PC version? In terms of playability and looks.

 

[Atolm]

Got my first (and probably last) wellfare carbontwine after two books dropped from rank S. Went to my Magitek Bow. It looks so nice dyed...I need those metallic dyes though.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

There is some real comedy gold on the server when a ton of s ranks spawn, heh. So much entitledness

Good and good.

So I'm a recent sub to this game, and while I kinda know what I'm doing I also don't. How long usually is the wait to get into some of the more populated, gaf-fc supported worlds? I just wanna find some cool people to play with, but all I have right now is a level 18 in Faerie and a level 15 in Jenova. Completely willing to start new in a new world, but it seems like the popular ones never open up.

Just keep checking back at super random times to make a char in Ultros. Usually not peek play times. Sometimes super early or really late on off days, espically not weekends. You'll get it!

 

[dcye]

My "Operation Demon Tabard of Aiming" lasted 26 runs but is now over!. Yay!

Ahem get your own title.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Early as sin morning hors seems to be a popular time but I've had plenty of luck in the afternoon.

 

[Kagari]

Got the Dreadwyrm belt finally... On my alt. Ah well, whatever. Alt will get its T13 carry this week too.

Server full? Try in the dead of night. That seems to work often enough.

Oh oh oh tank drop only in T10 tho :<

 

[taa0098]

Yooo got in Ultros, at 2:30 am lol. Makes sense. Starting fresh with a marauder!

 

[lazybones18]

Will the Puff of Darkness minion just fucking drop already!? I don't care if I don't get it the first time, I just want to roll on the damn thing at least once

 

[HylianScribe]

This is happening...

I forgot to take a picture with the iron mask...

Literally the entire reason I was dead set on getting poverty twine today.

IT HAD TO MATCH.

 

[Aeriscloud]

Radical birth marks.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Lalas marrying, what is the world coming to?

 

[Frumix]

Done with Odin now. I never thought the poor guy will be more boring of a fight than Leviathan.

Speaking of Leviathan, yesterday I saw for the first time that a tank with Briny went away from the stack into a corner so that AOE healing for the phase transition wouldn't put unnecessary stacks on healers
...This is so obvious!

 

[aceface]

This is happening...

OF COURSE it would be at 4am.

 

[gryvan]

why at 4 am....

WHY

Unless im mistaken the PS4 versions runs on PC ultra settings @ 1080p with a variable framerate.

Playability is excellent, at least as a White Mage anyway, the dual shock is good but please plug a keyboard in to communicate as the virtual keyboard blocks the entire screen.

I have both versions. There is no way the PS4 runs at PC's ultra settings. High is closer to it.

According to digital foundry the only differences are a reduced AF and FXAA on PS4.

Of course increased framerate and resolution help too on PC.

WHAT. Not fair. I wanted to be there. WTF QHON?!

The conclusion of this article states that PC is still the better option, but PS4 is very good. Which it is. But also keep in mind, this was done in April of 2014. Several patches have come out since then and I've found the PS4 performance to suffer bit by bit. Don't even get me started on Hunts, FATEs or some dungeons which causes some framerate problems.

Don't think anyone's posted the new episode of the community video yet:

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

Wanderer's Palace (Hard) ending was unexpected.

 

[Shamdeo]

Soon.

 

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

Unless they add some really cool abilities to PLD in Heavenwards I will probably switch to Dark Knight or Warrior (if I don't end up liking DK more).

 

[WolvenOne]

My wishlist for PLD right now, is mainly a slightly less boring rotation. Maybe access to another spell or two, so they can help heal or party mitigate while off tanking.

Can't really get more specific than that, seeing as I don't play that class much.
