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.

Oh well. DLing the 3gb release patch now. Who knows..

Do you use the authenticator?

Edit: if you're more meticulous than "actually changes your passwords" you can cause false positives, like if you're using VPN often or changing IPs frequently.

That suspicious activity email happens every time you login from a new location. If you haven't changed locations you may have gotten an IP address that's not geolocated correctly.

SE gives you that notice whenever you log in from a different IP. Get an authenticator and you won't have to deal with it any more.

How do you gain access to the weekly b rank hunt for 3.0 ?

People are saying it's at the bar and I've unlocked both the level 1 and 2 dailies but can't find anywhere that has a weekly.

So I can't figure this out. Apparently the battle log can't record how much WIldfire hits for when it falls off, which is super annoying.

The player character is so naive. Like you corner a traitor who goes "I give up" and then says he'll betray the bad guys then you go over to the quest area and he laughs going "do you really think I'll give up so easily?" then sends the enemy at you because you walked into a trap and then you beat him up along with all his friends and he has an epiphany and decides to turn himself in to the authorities. This happens multiple times! What the heck.

Monk is in a great place. They didn't change a whole lot in terms of playstyle, but instead got a lot of QoL stuff. You can change forms without a target or blow your greased lightning stack on a big attack so losing them doesn't hurt so much. And it's a kamehameha.

It's easy to miss at first but each iteration of the common stuff actually has small differences, like how the standard tank curiass model steadily gets more beefy and adds on big honking pauldrons on the level 40 version. With robes though its mainly the material and textures changing. Unique models are usually dungeon drops, like the acolyte/foestriker set in the first three dungeons or the three sets that drop from brayflox. Once you get to 45 the vistas of your catbarbie's fashion sense really open up and at 50 you gain access to the true endgame, glamours.

Have you been getting green drops from dungeons at all? That's usually where the more unique looking outfits come from.

Alternatively, just wait until job level 45... :D

That being said, if you rapid fire and then LB the LB has a .5s cast time.

:siren:How to Not Suck at Leveling 30-50:siren:

Always do your low level roulette daily first if not already completed. Levequests current benefit from rest XP, but do not consume it. You heard me right. This makes levequests ludicrous in the level ranges they're available. FATEs suck and are terrible XP/hour due to boss HP scaling and the massive zergfests going on right now.

Because people are quoting this, i tried to see if the 'bolded' was working but doesn't seem to be. I'm getting 11k xp for leve on st.conch. 9k from the leve and 2k from completion. No added benefit from having rested xp.
