You can transfer later for $18. Trying again in the middle of the night (like 4 am est) might be able to get you onto a medium population server, but the high pop ones will be locked for a while because of the expansion.

Because I just got home from work and apparently can't read very well. I think I'll just go on whatever server I can for now and pay the 18 bucks later if I like the game and think I'm gonna stick around. Thank you for the help!

Nien posted:Has anyone ever had any luck with SE support? I need to remove the token (which was on some iphone from the distant past) from my account (which I can't long onto to remove said token because I don't have said token), but several support tickets seem to simply be ignored. I have been trying to solve this exact problem today. I put in a ticket this morning but didn't receive any confirmation, so I joined the queue for live chat. When I got to the front after a couple of hours, it just said "Unable to connect you at this time" and that was that. I got an email back late in the afternoon saying I needed to contact EU Support (I used to live in Europe so I guess my account must be registered there) but it's going to be very difficult for me to do live communication with EU time zones (I live in California). I just submitted another ticket on the EU support page but I'm not banking on getting this resolved quickly... Agreed that its super weird that you don't get any email confirmation or anything about tickets.

I hope there is a PSN flash sale or some sort of discount on additional platform keys in the near future. I can't even get xp towards 60 on the base ARR classes in the standard ARR zones when I load up PS4 now. I should be glad it doesn't level sync you back down to 50, but I don't think I had quite realized just how much I would be feeling held back by not being able to level on my additional jobs; I also am super wary of doing anything that counts in the challenge log so I don't inadvertently waste an xp bonus.

Use time zones to your advantage and get in line when they open.

Just saw my first vote abandon trying to do The Chryalis. There seemed to be a few people in there who understood the fight but wouldn't explain it to anyone and just got really mad at all of us new players. I still don't understand how the following aspects of that fight work, and I'm looking at guides and everything: - What's up with the giant AOE of death after the first orbs phase? Not the one that you make hurt less with the orbs, but the big one with the blue lightning-ish effects that he does a few different times. Do tanks need to interrupt that or something? - Why don't some orbs pop? - Are DPS's supposed to get the adds during orbs phase, or let off-tank kite them? - What's up with the meteors in the portal phase? Is only one person supposed to stand under them, or no one, or what? e: watched a video while waiting through this terrible queue and I've got answers to that stuff now, what a weird instance. I wish it had the Echo buff for retries like other main quest trials :\ abraham linksys fucked around with this message at 03:38 on Jun 24, 2015 |

Quick question - does the RAF allow you to create a character on a restricted server? Also, can I do RAF for a friend who already has started a 14 day trial?

You (everyone) should pop alternating colors before they reach him. -Probably lag. -Those die quick enough that people should be able to kill them while popping orbs -Tanks should stand under the meteors, the tear needs to die asap.

It's just a roomwide AOE you have to deal with. 2; orbs not popping is probably a latency issue, I've not had it happen before 3; tanks are supposed to grab them and face them towards the outside of the arena 4; I don't think the damage is mitigated by more than one player, but someone absolutely needs to stand in them, yes

It's probably just your groups being loaded down with newbies that aren't very geared if people are dying to it. It's a significant amount of damage, but it's not really a mechanic or anything, you just heal through it.

If everyone is around ilvl 110 no that should not be happening. none of the things you're describing are supposed to be threatening mechanics.

Yeah, triple spark is the worst attack in that encounter but there is plenty of warning for tank cooldowns, sacred soil, Adlo, Virus, etc to mitigate things. Something else weird is going on in those groups.

i'm pretty sure DF will but the problem is making sure i end up with you, i'd imagine. try again and if you get stuck i'll eat a server transfer if you go 0/3 with groups trying to do chrysalis of all things i'd recommend you take out a life insurance policy because there is a good chance you will be struck by lightning or something

The thing about triple is the triple casts afterwards can, on an undergeared tank, outright kill them if the healers aren't pre-casting heals to land in between casts/don't put a shield up/etc. Of course, even one tank going down shouldn't be an emergency in that fight (if you're in DF, you should have a second one available). If your healers aren't bright enough to keep the MT alive through it, and if that second tank isn't smart enough to provoke the boss after the main tank dies you're in for a world of hurt. Yes, Quake III does a lot of AoE damage, and it is cast often. Healers need to be ready for it. Finally, the tear: a lot of pubs don't know how your buffs are extended when you enter it, or how to take advantage of it. This puts them in a position where tanks aren't able to grab every meteor (no sprint or tank buffs pre-entry), or healers don't pre-cast a strong healing buff (Medica II/Divine Seal/etc) to help get through any meteors that are missed. Often that instance fails in DF simply because of one or the other, not the lack of DPS on the tear (which is more often than not caused by missed meteors killing DPS). It's pretty much a big tank/healer check to see if they're paying attention to mechanics. If they had to nerf steps as hard as they did, I'm surprised they didn't nerf that fight too.

So, I got AST to level 41 tonight. My thoughts thus far: *Card draw's 30 second cooldown is just long enough to forget about but short enough to feel bad about forgetting, particularly since you want to be using it the moment it comes off cooldown. *I'm sure the buffs are useful, but they're too subtle to really feel the impact, which means I'm left in kind of a lurch wondering how useful I'm really being with these things. *My major concern for AST is staying power. They're objectively the least potent healer of the pack and they have the same awful refresh type skill as WHM without the raw potency or occasional free cast procs. No, instead, they get procs of instant casts on their cure 2 equivalent, which is really hard to reliably utilize comparatively and may often go to waste because you simply don't need it for the entire duration. If they don't get SOME kind of MP management skill in later levels that I don't know about, I'm seriously concerned for their viability in anything serious. Staying power is really important. *I feel cheated that my job quests are giving me these card skills I feel I really ought to have had from the beginning. *Lightspeed is fun, but I wish the cooldown was shorter. I'm already lowering my heal potency, let me run and heal a bit more often. Is there stuff I'm missing? How do other folks trying out AST feel about the class? Also, finally got around to checking SCH (my main class pre-expansion). RIP Lustrate, you're still kind of good? I'll miss that % based heal though. I guess the higher base potency Physick and Embrace are pretty good consolation and Aetherflow/Energy Drain are the same as ever. The AoE Esuna on Selene is nice, I can see that being really useful in certain fights.

group 3 round 3 ends in failure as our off-tank, who has never done this trial before, minimizes their game by accident meanwhile, I spend most of it dead after getting too close to the wrong type of orb and having someone blow it up, and then getting ressed back into a quake 3 that murders me instantly at least we made it to the final phase that time though!!! e: OH MY GOD WE FINALLY HAD A RUN WHERE WE WERE ALL STILL ALIVE WHEN PORTAL POPPED AND THE TANKS DIDN'T GET THE METEORS IN TIME, I HATE EVERYTHING abraham linksys fucked around with this message at 04:43 on Jun 24, 2015 |

I've been looking around for an hour for a solution to this problem but nothing is coming. So my girlfriend bought me FF14 about six months back for me to play. It was a digital purchase from the SE store. Around 3-4 months ago, I linked this copy of FF14 as a shortcut in my Steam Library page because "Hey! This will keep all my games organized!". Last week, she bought me Heavensward with pre-access, but the code didn't work under my account. When I looked it up on Mognet, my account is flagged as Standard (Steam) despite never buying a steam copy of this game. So in short: -I can't register Heavensward from a generic copy because my account is flagged as Steam -I can't buy a Steam copy of Heavensward because I don't actually own a Steam copy of ARR. What do I do?

Anyone else have to reset passwords today because of "suspected suspicious activity"? Really odd because I'm extra meticulous about online passwords and computer security, and I resubbed just last week after having to go through an ordeal to get my email changed and password reset to even access my account.
