Vilgan posted:With 3.3 looming, should I horde scrips/tomes for a price drop? or does it not work like that/not due for price drop? I haven't ever been active through a patch before so no clue what to expect. They usually don't reduce prices on odd patches, but rather increase the amount of tomes you receive. So hoarding would not be a good idea.

I change my mind, since i've barely dabbled in crafting anything. quote:Moogle Beast Tribe quests will be for crafters and will cover the level range of 50-60. You can use them to help level crafters for this range. So now you’ll be crafting baskets instead of searching for them. Moogles built a home for themselves!

Right after I finally finished getting all my crafters to 60, too. Oh well.

I find it strange the Moogles are the crafting tribe instead of the Goblins... but eh, as long as i'm not searching for them in random rear end cracks of walkable ground in Sea of Clouds again.

Nill posted:It makes sense though. The gobbies are better crafters than the player and wouldn't need our help. Moogles on the otherhand have been shown to be completely incapable of accomplishing anything without assistance. Which is why our role in the Moogle tribe quests should've been that of an overly aggressive drill sergeant, whipping them in to shape by beating them up.

I'm sure glad that the treasure dungeon has a 50% chance to completely kick you out every time you open a door. This game really needed more arbitrary RNG.

Apparently the live fan translation wasn't great (shocker!) and they didn't say that the RNG of the doors inside treasure dungeon was 50%. That's the odds of getting a dungeon from a map at all. But the doors are still RNG, we just don't know the odds, so it's still going to be dumb.

That's the odds of getting a dungeon from a map at all. I remember that the live translation said that the odds of getting a portal is 20% and that the doors to each next room are 50%. So you're saying, essentially, the portals are a 50% chance to appear and that we don't know the odds for the doors? That's a bit easier to swallow, if that's the case. In any case, I'm gonna try and withhold judgment until we have a better idea what treasure the Dungeon will offer. At first glance, I'm just generally underwhelmed because I almost never have good luck. I love the idea of optional dungeons and dungeons with unique mechanics though, so it could go either way. vv

So my friend keeps trying to get me to play this, and I've always thought it looked cool but I really hate spending money and subscriptions make me mad. Do you actually have to subscribe to anything or can you like, just drop the cash for a month or something and not worry about it?

There's a 14-day trial for new accounts, and the base upgrade gives 30 days of gametime. There are also 60 day game time cards around.

They're also bumping the free trial limit from level 20 to level 35 in 3.3. e: vvvv Yeah, XIV itself is $20 and comes with a free month of game time, which costs $12, so you're only paying $8 for the game. vOv fucked around with this message at 00:14 on May 23, 2016 |

There's a free demo that you can play as someone else mentioned and the base $20 game comes with a free month of game time iirc. You don't need to buy Heavensward to play the game and all it does below level 50 is let you play as a new race.

I like how the live translation said Yoshida's cooldowns reset after wiping to Nidhogg, even though they very clearly don't. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVSKhYJWf30&t=2900s I'm just going to blame Mr. Happy for this, since he was putting the document together.

Panic! at Nabisco posted:Wait for a sale, the game and expansion go on sale regularly. You don't need the expansion at all until you're level 50, though if you play to level 50 you should get to expansion so you can keep getting exp while you do all the level 50 stuff. Yeah that's what I figure. Have they ever gone on sale for 75% off?

https://isthereanydeal.com/#/page:game/info?plain=finalfantasyxivarealmreborn This ought to help! And yeah, I'd go with a non-steam version. Using Steam locks you into Steam for all future FFXIV purchases and vice-versa for non-steam.
