While we're waiting for the datacenter to unfuck itself, what are the mechanics for the second boss in A6? We figured everything else out but aside from recognizing that it has three different weapons it can switch to, we can't figure out what we're doing wrong and end up limping to the finish line.

isk posted:Yep! Got in on an alt to test it a bit. Most were friendly and willing to answer basic/intermediate questions, but the accuracy of information began to break down when advanced topics were broached. That's whatever, likely corrected by the community over time. There's little chance for the community to correct any issues with the Novice Network as it currently stands, because you're always going to get a random sampling of people who meet the requirements, instead of a group of people who actively want to help. Most of the people I talked to about Mentoring just wanted the little crown next to their name and couldn't give two shits about actually helping new players. Some of them were IN the channel and had just filtered the whole thing to off.

I wanted to continue with the story, not do a bunch of "go here, kill x monsters" quests. This is the correct mindset. gently caress all those pointless quests

Kill X Monsters quests but they do help you learn where mobs appear (without just checking the internet). One option for cash is to do the quests that give gear and flip them on the MB, they're HQ and don't cost gil but I don't know if they're still selling for good amounts or not. Hopefully the Sky Pirate gear drops in price now that it's cheaper to craft and non-specialists can make it now and all you need is NQ to get your ilv up. Otherwise yeah, do hunts for centuro seals and law gear, do roulettes with your lv60 for eso, and once you hit the i170 and i175 breakpoints you'll gear up a lot faster. e: DACK FAYDEN posted:They added the ability to trade beast tribe currency for ventures! I'd just throw away all my tokens if I had to resort to buying ventures one at a time, gj se

DACK FAYDEN posted:I finished my relic before I actually finished off capping my beast tribe rep on the tribes I never did before, and I only play BLM so I didn't want to bother starting on a second relic. UnIDed items can also be traded in for a set of 3 Grade 5 Carbonized Matter at the NPCs that deal with the tomestone conversion for them now. Pretty good concession for materia on tomes/raid gear now for people that don't have gatherers leveled.

Ignimbrite posted:pray return to moghome I don't get this, I kept seeing macro spam of it when HW first came out and people whining about moogle quests and then I went to Churning Mists, did like 5-6 quests for moogles, and was on my merry way. I figured maybe I'd have to, well, Return to moghome later in the MSQ but it never happened and I was done. Did they change the moogle quests or something?

Burned through everything except Midas and Sephirot (Savage). The dungeons were super fun, I love it when my group try to work out the mechanics for the first time. Sephirot normal was great, although I with the phase change hadn't been spoilt by the trailer. MSQ Spoilers Looks like we won't be pray returning anywhere anymore as Minfilia is dead. RIP most useless Sion in the game. Fighting Raubahn was really awesome, that whole duty was super fun and can Ishgard get a loving break?

There's something like 60 quests in the Churning mists and the MSQ only has you there for a tiny fraction of that. For the love of god don't try to level by doing the sidequests in the churning mists. At least not before getting your aether currents.

Any idea if you can do those unsynced for the fragments? I had a bunch of Alexandrite laying around so I blew through the first step.
