orange juche posted:It gets better when you get stronger heals and better gear, it gets practically idiot-proof except for coil, etc. Once you gear up you should be able to outheal anything someone can hurt themselves with almost. That's good, though I guess leveling via dungeons might be a bit challenging for a while then.

Would you believe that this weekend, something like four or five different 8-man statics in my FC got their first T9 clears? Nothing like a new content cycle to spur people along, I guess.

The app also has the benefit that it works even if you have no Internet connection. Which I suppose could prove useful in a suitably bizarre set of circumstances.

Even though I've had Carpenter up to 50 I just now got the appropriate class blue and the i55 chest. That saw is as big as my torso.

Demicol posted:Had the worst run of Pharos Sirus I've ever seen. Bad PLD tank was pulling mobs with Provoke among other things. We wiped enough that after finally getting to the final boss and one attempt later all my gear broke and the tank DC'd. I put on some random stuff I had lying around in an attempt to get us trough the boss: I once did Totorak with a healer who was actually using the starter, ilevel 1 wand, because he thought that upgrading his weapon wouldn't affect his healing.

I think the only two "What in the heck" moments like that I've had were a healer for story Ifrit having no right-side gear at all, and a WHM in CT2 using a one-handed, level 46 NQ wand with no off-hand because "it was almost done spirit-bonding".

I can respect that guy, it's at least logically consistent. The guy with the level 5 weapon in Toto-rak is way worse, because he knew to upgrade at least once.

I just want to elaborate on endgame crafting. Although if you calculate the gil cost on everything, it can seem very daunting, if you make everything yourself it will be much cheaper. You are never too late to start crafting, there are many things that are in the game to help you catch up. When your leveling your first few crafting classes, always make a few extra HQ leve turn ins at each tier to sell on the Marketboards. This will provide you the gil you need to buy mats for the next teir. In addition if you are diligent about spiritbinding you can do the vast majority of your melds by yourself once you hit 50. The crafting accessories might seem expensive, but when leveling desynthesis, it is worth your time to stay behind just producing FC1s for your personal use and to sell (or make crafting accessories and sell). As always, be diligent about spiritbinding woolen sets, you'll blow through a ton by the time you hit 100 desynth skill. Pre 2.4 the hardest and most expensive part is getting your goldsmith desynth to 100. For newer players, having a miner is incredibly helpful since you can reduce your mat costs. But once you make it past there, getting a supra is much easier than it looks. If you produce your own FCIIIs and sell a few extra, your gil reserves will shoot up.

Verranicus posted:So what are you goons gonna play while FF is down? Instead of playing the "get my food handler's card" game, I think I'm gonna play Harvest Moon 64 for the first time since it came out and my save got corrupted when I used Gameshark for the first time on it! I've pretty much officially switched over into the camp that Back to Nature/Friends of Mineral town is the best in the series, but maybe I might feel differently if I give 64 another shot (I will probably not feel differently). orange juche posted:What's your name in game? I'll help you out with stuff if I can, though I may be in an awkward TZ. I'm Silas Alderman in game; on Excal and in DGKK already. I'm playing pretty casually as I don't wanna burn out on it like I did with GW2, so I don't really know how much help I'll need aside from someone to critique my dressup once I hit 50, but I'm always open to advice and chatting!

Just going to join the friend code white noise here: 8KS35Z8U Also if you're on PS3/PS4 and in the UK, you can buy the game for £2 from tesco delivered (or collect in store) for PS3 and you can upgrade that to the PS4 version for free! Includes your first 30 days. No I don't work for them but hey £2 come on.  I love love LOVE the Halloween event items. Even seasonal gear looks ridiculously good in this game.

Can someone explain desynthing and demimateria to me like I'm an idiot? I have every DoH class at 50 besides CUL, and an HQ set of gear for each of them (but only the rings are melded). I've heard desynthing is important to keep progressing in crafting, particularly GSM, and I did experiment with it a couple times but my chances of success were like.. 5% each time or less. What should I be doing to level it? What is it even used for?

The lower the ilvl, the easier it is to desynth, so start with low level stuff and work your way up. Once it's 100% chance to desynth something it's no longer worth your time because it won't give you desynth points, probably even before that actually. Move on to the next tier of desynth. At around 60 or 70 points you'll start getting demimateria sometimes.
