At the end of the day, just remember you're arguing over bits of internet data that in the end is inconsequential once the next patch/expansion lands.

I just nearly had my first dungeon failure. I was doing my daily Low Level Roulette as my Level 39 Paladin, expecting another run through Tam-Tara or Halatali, but I ended up in Cutter's Cry, which I had never done before, and my first dungeon where I wasn't being Level Synced under 25. My party wiped a good 3-4 times against the Chimera, mostly due to what I am sure was my poor tanksmanship. I figured out some of the things I was doing wrong along the way, and we were able to clear it with ~10 minutes to spare, but I still was having lots of difficulty dodging the Breath AoE, and more importantly, disengaging from the Chimera and running away fast enough when its eyes turned blue. I think the regular weekend lag at my apartment complex played some part, but basically the entire time I've been playing, I've had difficulty running away from mob-centered AoE, whether it be Goblin bomb tosses or Bomb Self-Destructs or what have you. Part of my issue is that I instinctively go for the 'S' key when this happens, and backwards movement is terribly slow, or I'll be locked on to the enemy and moving side-to-side or forward just has me rotate or get closer to the mob. The only success I have seems to be when I turn off the target lock, stand as far away from the mob as I can while still being able to hit it, then rotating the camera and moving forward when the time comes. Still, my chances of being hit by the Chimera's blue attack were 50/50, and our success only came with a lucky streak. Is there anything I can do to make this easier besides  ? Some sort of configuration to speed up backwards movement or something?

Is there anything I can do to make this easier besides Character Configuration - Control Settings - General - select Legacy Type and check the maintain camera distance option. Also under Target, make sure "Automatically face target when using action" is enabled. Once you get used to it, it will feel so much better, trust me. (Though why are you using lock-on as a KB/M player? That's intended for controller players.) e: dammit kirby

SpaceDrake posted:(Though why are you using lock-on as a KB/M player? That's intended for controller players.) I liked using it for easily avoiding Conal AoEs, as well as quickly getting into Rear/Flank position for when I'm running DPS classes. I'm totally brain wiped from that Cutter's Cry run, but I'll try both of your suggestions tomorrow, thanks!

At this point namedropping Zoe Quinn in Mor Dhona seems more productive than Atma discussion; everyone had exhaustively restated their opinion like ten times and I really don't think anyone is going to change anyone elses' opinions at this point, just let it be.

They're seriously done with DLC for Curtain Call already? That game seems tailor-fuckin'-made for endlessm endless rounds of DLC as they release every Squaresoft song and character ever. That's a little disappointing, actually. VVV THEY BETTER I won't be happy until I can play as the most obscure character, on a track heard maybe once on an FF bootleg.

SpaceDrake posted:(Though why are you using lock-on as a KB/M player? That's intended for controller players.) I'm a controller player, and I avoid using lock-on on any enemy with an all-around AoE for the same reason he does: it makes it easy to fumble the unlock and then you eat an AoE you couldn't back away from fast enough. I have no idea how much autoattack DPS I lose by relying on auto-face to keep me pointed at the enemy, though. And of course I always lock when playing Archer because it isn't like they care about AoEs ever.

I'll believe it when I see it. They put out 10 DLC packs for Japan, one every two weeks. The last one came out at the end of August and they haven't released any additional DLC since then. In those packs, the only track from FFXIV is Good King Moggle Mog. I suppose they might release another DLC pack of FFXIV music when the expansion is released because it sounds like they intend to only release new DLC with the launch of new Final Fantasy games, but again, I'll believe that when it actually happens.

I'm getting myth so fast now it's crazy. My mentality used to be "I ran out of gear to spend myth on in this class, time to raise another 50", but my bard isn't even at 43 and I've bought him a full set of i90 gear. At this rate I'll have two more full sets before I get one of my last three combat classes up. Can't wait for the weekly soldiery limit to be lifted so I can get a third class near i100.

Basically the Mog Station is being an rear end in a top hat and won't let me buy a month's sub. So, if I want to play I have to buy a time card. If I buy the 60days of time, there will be people to play with yes? I won't have to run around by myself for two months will I?

There are hundreds of goons playing on Excalibur and there's a huge patch in the next month or so that will undoubtedly draw back more and encourage people to play even more. So no you will not be playing in a ghost town.
