Decided to resub for a month just to mess around with the Escha area and maybe get Aegis this time. Noticed that the old goon LS seems dead as the lsmes states there's a new one. I'll be on again Friday but are the usual people giving pearls out for the new shell on Asura still?

Be still my quaking boner. If this is step one of the end, we're in for a hell of a ride into the pearly gates. Godspeed Vanadiel.

Christ. I expect each key item to be for each content update though, so that bit is still slated for...november? Wonder what'll happen to currency and alex prices in between though. Edit: Wat. https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Onca_Suit Valle fucked around with this message at 09:42 on May 14, 2015 |

This Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, you and me and whomever we can con into helping us so we can get our Seeker's of Adoulin ring and our fancy councilor's garb + gloves. So which day do you want to get this done? Or do you want to do one bcnm a day?

I'll be at a friend's place playing board games on Friday. I'm down for whatever on Saturday and Sunday though!Squeenix posted:The levels at which warriors receive improved Physical Attack Bonus job traits have been changed from Lv.30/91 to Lv.30/65/91.

These 3 key items are insane... There's a note claiming that more will be added in future updates so we get all three just from completing the first chapter of Rhapsodies too. Looks like I have little reason not to finish Aegis now that currency prices are about to tank and I can farm without restriction.

Mythics went from a multi-month process to likely being soloable in under a week as long as you have money for Alex. Getting all 3 KI takes under an hour once the congestion around the pops dies down.

Lebros Supplies is doable solo but still very very luck-based. I recommend DNC/THF (or BRD/THF if you have the skill for Lullaby) and pray you get at least two Stewpots. Or use the stuff that gets you flagged for a ban I guess

So if my actual account is still active, but the characters canceled, can I just reactivate them specifically for the Return Home campaign or am I hosed? I remember POL being kind of weird about defining those back then.

I remember POL being kind of weird about defining those back then. So long as the account itself (both Square-Enix and PlayOnline) is active and uncancelled, you should be good, even if you cancelled all the individual characters to stop the monthly billing. Since two of my old Auction House alts spontaneously reactivated themselves during this campaign, you may not even need to do that much. Try just logging in and see what happens.

So is RDM still a bad class?

Hivac posted:So is RDM still a bad class? Not as bad as it used to be. WHM is still a better healer but RDM has unique buffs now that help it stand out. Ran around in Escha today and blew 7k silt, 3k of which was on accident trying to mess around with upgraded the new boots I got off of a NM. The Tribulens KI that's need for popping NMs goes up in price if you try to buy it more than once every 30 mins so this is further cementing the idea that SE really didn't think this content through too well.

Decided to hop on for the free event, found out you can't pay for a transfer without reactivating. Looks like I'm staying on Quetz until I decide to resub, if I do. Meantime, the new missions took like, an afternoon to clear. Just me solo on 96 THF/DNC with trusts. No idea what I'm going to do now, but at least I got my sweet KIs. Anyone know of a good solo camp to level 96-99, since Quetz is a ghost town? I haven't played for a long time, except the last free week, when a helpful goon got me my last LB quest so I could finally cap.

Do RoE quests for a zone that gives you exp, summon your trusts, and if you are lucky you will also have an fov or a gov so you can have another repeatable quest and also get tabs. Ceizak Battlegrounds has blanched mandies, they are probably level 100 or 101, but they don't hit for much. Good luck.

Hey there, buddy, I'm stuck in the Quetzalcoatl shithole too. Then again I'm still on the step that's trying to justify just getting it running because I'd have to relearn the spellcast replacement and get a fuckton of new gear and whenever I look at the effort required for maybe a week or so of play I think maybe I'm just actually done with this game until I can justify a resub?? I know I'm overthinking things but I'm feeling so unmotivated towards getting any of it done in the first place.

I want to say that the new escha-zitah zone would be perfect for those levels you said that you needed to level up.

They have a whole thread of them, IIRC. I'm probably not going to bother capping RDM. Too painful.

I haven't actually resubbed so I'll probably be gone for a while after the free period is up, but I'm Cherece on Asura if anyone wants to toss a pearl at me.

If anyone wants to level one of their jobs now is a great time. Just get the exp charge ring from the moogle. Go to escha-zitah, if you are 60-99 you should get decent exp and silt. 10 silt opens up the npc merchant to be nice enough to let you buy stuff from him for silt. 50 silt is how much the map key item costs. Silt is the currency for this zone, and it is a pain to farm for.
