This was fun. Did not expect to do this at all, just joined a PF (a group that was normally a static needed fill-ins because not everybody were interested) and we did it in two days from essentially zero. Free loot!
We plan to gather again for further turns.
Kinda nostalgic. T6 was essentially baby's first raid for me.
Yeah I dig it. It's nice accompaniment to Black Mage being a bit more actiony.
Then I guess I'll be in good company.
I stopped doing LLDR with level 50 characters a long time ago. It's just too boring and there are so many other ways to get soldiery so why bother with it?
Am I doing something wrong? Why the fuck's it so annoying to login for this game?
Seriously the account system sucks ass.
The first 2 days I tried to login it forced me to reset my password, but I kind of bypassed that by using rest mode on PS4 and I was able to skip it.
I don't even know how to do the stupid one-time password thing since it won't let me fucking login and locked my account out.
EDIT: Finally reset after 15 minutes and I was able to set up the One Time password, hope this doesn't happen again. Ugh.
So I'm trying my first dungeon, I'm ARC so I assume it will take at least 30 minutes or something wait?

Well I'm leveling up my lower level characters (lv 37 scholar now) still feels super easy though. I might just be a shitty healer lol

If you're using the phone app for one-time password, make damn sure you log in to the account management site and print out or write down the emergency password you were given. I've had the phone app mysteriously forget it was paired to my account twice for no apparent reason, and if you don't have the emergency password to remove the one-time password from your account you get to have fun with Squenix's customer "service" to get your account back.
I'm still waiting for Edda to found the Necromancer's Guild and recruit the player into it. Necromancer would be a fun class to have in FFXIV.

Isn't the spot kinda taken up by the summoner? Conjure things to fight for them, attack enemies with poisons and sheer ruination. That sounds like the concept for a necromancer to me except things just happen to be foxes and fairies and chicken nuggets instead of spirits and undead.

Well if they ever fix Summoner so it's actually like traditional FF Summoner, then the pet class could be Necromancer instead.
Embrace hopelessness.
Just got into GAF FC, everyone seems very nice which is great (my character is Mike Nieto, you might see my little Lalafell running around waving to you in Ul'dah/Thanalan). Also just hit level 15 and don't know if I should just keep focusing on main scenario quests, THAU quests and whatever else shows up in my Recommendations window.
I wanna visit other areas, see what they offer but monsters in Southern Thanalan are still too strong for me so I'm scared about getting too far from Ul'dah. I also want to start leveling a crafting class, especifically alchemy (Atelier fan here), but it seems like I'll need to spend a shit ton of gil on ingredients. I'm Alchemist level 3, so any recommendations there¿ or should I just focus on Thaumaturge for the time being¿

1. Focus on story quests over everything else.
2. Alchemist eventually started paying for itself almost with crafting leves, but it's not necessary at the moment.
You can sell things once you get your retainers at Lv17. To buy stuff you can use the market boards in the market areas of the 3 starting cities.

Decided to come back for awhile, see how things go. Hit a road block at Titan and stopped playing for a few months. I do have a worse video card, but disabling the HDR thing helped tremendously. How do you do the gold saucer stuff? Its greyed out.
And how do I go about getting a GAF guild invite?

If anyone wants to watch a bunch of knuckleheads tackle Savage Coil for the first time you can do so at www.twitch.tv/xenoraven. #shamelessselfpromotion
unless that's a melded vanya, your AF armor is probably still better
just farm soldiers and crystal towers now while slowly getting poetics for ironworks stuff
Highly recommended you add the one-time password two-step verification.

Messed around with the game this weekend, reached level 20 with my CNJ and I'm enjoying it so far.
Sent my invite for the GAF guild too.

If you look at previous versions of the Final Fantasy Necromancer (mainly the one in FF V), it was less about summoning the undead as much as being the undead. Most enemy necromancers were undead, the Lich Ring turns you into the undead in FF IV, etc. It's all about selling your soul to darkness for a body that is really hard to kill and powerful, unique attack spells. And dying to Cure II.
Woot, finally got to level 50 on my BLM! Now to finish up the story. I have my artifact armor and my ring for finishing up the hunting log but the rest of my gear is just from story quests. Up to Cape Westwind in the story.
Still have to figure out a good setup on the PS4 for my spells though since I'm not using half of them and probably can't get away with that as much now.

I'm having a blast with the story quests and finishing everything other quest and hunting log entry. I'm almost level 18 thaumaturge and will probably try to begin a business as an alchemist, I'm interested in that. Since my goal for the game is to become a Black Mage, I might need help soon traveling from Uldah to Gridania. Have no clue how to do that or the retainers thing for my alchemy.
Oh snap.

I can practically see the Job quest already. "By the Twelve, Avatar! You're the best undead I've ever seen! You'll be deader than me in no time!"
Just keep doing the story quests, they will take you to every part of the world. Also, I'd suggest taking it easy on the crafting until you a) get a Gil base and b) get a better grip on the game and how it works. At the moment its pretty hard to make Gil as an alchemist on anything because potions are generally used in progression and we're at the very end of the patch cycle and no one is using them. You can still make money on X-Pots but you need to be a high level crafter for that.
from central thanalan, go to the northeastern exit into eastern thanalan, then take the northeastern exit again into south shroud, northwestern exit into central shroud, somewhere in the middle of the map there's a northern exit, that's gridania
i'd say just concentrate on getting 1 battle class to 50 1st before venturing into crafting and gathering classes
To add to this, gathering is a good way to get some walking around money so taking up botany and mining is a good idea. You can make some good money on the various shards that can be mined at level 1. It's not gonna be great money but if you keep an eye on the market you can make some cash.
It doesn't take that long to get to 30 the first couple of times while you still have quests. If you don't want to stop and fully do FATEs (Like when there's no one else in the zone doing any) you can just kill a 4-6 of the enemies and continue on with your quests/leves..when the timer runs out on them and the FATE fails, you'll still get a decent chunk of exp.
Tell me that Nexus is easier/faster, please
Do you want me to lie to you?

This is the worst part. I want to have a Zodiac but by them time I get all the drops we'll be well into 3.1.
But real talk, a lot of people say Animus books are the shittiest step these days. I wouldn't entirely disagree with them. The light farming was pretty nerfed (cut in half) so I'm sure it's not as soul crushing as it used to be.
I hope you like Garuda.
With the light nerf animus is indead the worst step
