Tried queuing for Garuda HM, got stuck at a loading screen to get in. Waited about 3-4 minutes. Tried re-logging since I was at a black screen, now stuck at the log-in loading screen. GG SE.

Same here... was on a roll too. Oh well sleeping for a few hours then and seeing if im still not in limbo.

So cards drop randomly and go straight to you, no rolling involved. Both Garu HM and EX have dropped the Garuda card with EX dropping at a higher rate (possibly).

Fuck it's been an hour and the game still thinks im in the howling eye. The instance timer never started since no one ever actually got into the instance I assume. And still radio silence from SE, what a bunch of shit.

Once your Zodiac weapon has been affixed with mahatma, you may increase its soul resonance level by equipping it and completing certain activities. Once you have achieved full soul resonance and your Zodiac weapon has sufficiently awakened, present it to Jalzahn, and you will be rewarded with a Zodiac weapon zeta of item level 135 that retains all the upgrades made to the original Zodiac weapon.

Wow, this is beyond lazy.
 
For Zodiac in case people don't want to bother with the reddit stuff, it's basically the old light values(so up to 16 for "newborn star"), and you need 40 light per mahatma(so 480 old light total). Also need 200sold per, so 2400total. Instance servers are crashing, so primals are kinda not the right way to farm atm it seems like. The light window might be different than Nexus too, unsure yet.

That loading screen thing is being reported on reddit and the official forums so we should have a response from SE soon I hope.

I did LLDR and I'm now unable to log back in due to infinite loading screen. (had to shut the game down due to black loading screen)

Chocobo racing from the EU sucks. My best Triple Triad result against NPCs so far is a draw.

But I did manage to climb the mountain. Gold Saucer redeemed.

Oh yeah, I'm sure they are getting right on it.
 
My chocobo Amatsukaze took 2nd place in her first race.

Completely unacceptable I am feeding her to some hungry Eyeball monsters when I get back from work. The stink for loserdom is on her now.
 
Had like 5 minutes before I had to get to work try this. Bought 500 mpg and bought a mini cacto ticket or whatever and ended up making 760 mgp. Well gotta wait till 6 pm now to try the rest :(

Also what do different colour above names mean I seen blue and green during races. Also any way to check your racing stats with rest of the FC

Apparently empty slots in Chocobo Races get filled with bots to provide the full race - if you see a colored racing chocobo, at this point it's probably a CPU-controlled racer. They're also pretty bad.

Bonus windows for Nexus and Zeta seem to coincide although the amount of light given is different (T4 is bonus now, gentle->bright for Nexus and faint->gentle for Zeta)

Yes, they glow. I kinda want Nirvana now... That mane...

At least it's something for the quiet hours for people not in NA timezones lol. :D

I'm willing to try this one out. Coming from WoW, what can I expect? Because I'm LTTP, is it too overwhelming to start now? Got some FFIX, X and XIII background, though I don't think that really matters?

EU here, so realm propositions are also welcome.

chocobo races are so laggyyyyy
I don't know whether it's intentional rank 1 behavior or just lag, but there's like a second delay on steering, hard to grab coffers, hehe.

Triple Triad is really cool though, but so far I haven't been able to play it outside of Gold Saucer. edit: I see it's limited to Adventurer's Guilds etc. That's actually kind of cool.

I started in November and didn't feel overwhelmed at all, it's when you hit the level cap and finish the main campaign that all content they've added since launch suddenly opens up.

Levelling is very easy compared to WoW, you have to sort of go out of your way to die until maybe level ~35 dungeons where things get a bit trickier. If you're playing solo mobs don't even "link" aggro, so none of that getting gangbanged by murlocs here.

Lots of client-side cutscenes if you're into that.

Someone on the official forum said this:

Garuda was one of the slowest actual ways to get the zeta lights. fates gave the new lights at an unbelievable rate, 3 fates per stone.

no one researched first, though, and all flooded garuda instead.

Incase anyone is interested in trying this out.

Yeah no it doesn't. It gives 1 point, just like it should.

lol I wouldn't know, thought I'd post so people who have a Zodiac can try it out anyway.

I'd love to test it out but it's too fucking hard for SE to just restart the instance servers or something. So glad I took off work today.

Someone said they logged into their alt and it looks like their main which was stuck on a loading screen is still online. If that's true then they need to restart the servers totally so people can log back in.

;_;

Nope. My raid LS tried it out, fates give 1 light.
It's the same as with Nexus, just values are different.

Fair enough. Values probably different due to not needing much light per Mahatma.

I can't wait til the Nexus step. Sounds better than Animus/Alexandrite steps with the buffed values.

It shows you and Riou in The Howling Eye right now. You guys stuck?

I've been out of the game for 3 hours, when I try to log in I just get now loading for now until the end of time. SE will continue to ignore the issue because they are fucking pricks. Same old same old.

Excalibur Zeta glow looks great! I really like the swivel thing.

Glow overall looks good. I really like DRG, WHM and MNK weapons. Bit less than Nexus which is welcome in my book.
