You also have an off GCD ability that shoots magic swords at people you should fire off whenever, you can generally get a good two of them out per rotation.

Are the Japanese servers having the Raubahn issue as well? I'm curious for no real reason.

I'm on the tail end of the Heveansward MSQ in the Flats and I cannot start the fight, I keep getting d/c'd (90006) and thrown back into a huge queue.

Palace of the Dead is completely dead again, disconnected me twice upon attempting to load it, both times resulting in huge queues. It started at 1,150 this time.

Apparently the Instance Problem has more people getting through, so I guess that's what I'll get back to. I have to say, now that I've seen the problem, it's absolutely terribly stupid design on the developers' part not to realize they were gating 70 percent of the expansion's content behind a bottleneck taht every single person will have to go through is going to result in congestion.

Though that doesn't explain why the game seems to be suffering across the board. It had settled down for awhile, but I guess we're getting another spike in users and that's crashing things again.

Game disconnected me while I was loading into the first samurai mission. I'm going to go hug my Rurouni Kenshin and Samurai Champloo DVDs and hope for the best when I try again.

I can't login at all anymore. I wait out a 1k+ queue only to get 90002 d/c'd the moment the game tries to load me in.

I'm getting kicked offline trying to do this Red Mage quest duty.

Do these quests unlock anything amazing or is it safe to go and gain levels until things shape up?

50s don't, they're just tutorial. Or at least the SAM one is. Haven't done RDM yet. Go get to level 52, maybe the problem won't be as bad by then..

Yeah it seems like they may have actually done what they said they were trying not to do and started getting people booted from every other instance by fixing the Raubahn instance. Everyone in my party got booted trying to do a frontline, and now I got booted the second my queue popped for the first stormblood dungeon, and the world queue is up to 1300.

Quest duties are still borked, just got punted from the lvl 56 SAM one.

This is approaching WoD levels (which was bad btw, the first few evenings were full of downtime because their generous estimates were still off).

This is -really great- since I've been going back and forth based on what's not working. Definitely disappointed coming off of HW's smooth launch.

Oh I know. We're a ways off from geometry duplication, item/level rollbacks, and stuck characters requiring GM intervention to log in, but there's plenty of gamestoppers.

Also y'all should keep in mind that the MSQ branched off into two chains before that raubahn thing and you should make sure you're done the other one before declaring you are stuck

Motherfucker, just got disco'd for a second time after queueing for the first dungeon. Guess that's not happening tonight, which sucks since clearing the first dungeon was my goal for the day. Oh well. Should be better in the morning?

Are the SAM and RDM quests purely flavor or are there decent rewards for them?

Seems like its just flavor and EXP until level 60, but after that you'll start getting job abilities and gear from them.

Apparently buying stormblood doesn't come with 30 days of gametime like every other mmo I've bought...

Mad because it means I can't play until next paycheck (next week) because I've budgeted to play now, but don't have it in the budget to play now. (I have the funds, but the money is budgeted to things that matter more)

Ugh adulting :sigh:

What every other mmo? The only other sub mmo is WoW and they don't include 30 days with an expansion either.
