Few things in this game frustrate me more than playing Triple Triad over and over to get a card to drop and continuing to not get it.

I must have beaten that lala by the Eureka guy like 100 times and I still don't have her card. Every time I go to do Eureka she's there, with her little card symbol... mocking me.

At least the mild improvement involves you doing actual gladiatorial combat, which we've been owed since level 1. Still poo poo compared to WAR and especially DRK.

I have no memories of brd 30-50 aside from meeting an old elf guy by a giant log. This is probably a me problem rather than one with the quests but they left zero impression on me. I at least remember the comedy of errors that was pld.

You find your mentor trying to suicide by hoard of dragons because he has lost hope and you walk through a blizzard shouting "LISTEN TO MY SONG" to both save his life and rouse his musician spirit. You just do the FF13 equivalent of MAcross 7 (the good Macross)

I'm also trying to get back in and finally experience up to date content once the expansion is out.

Anyone wanna share their HUD/UI layouts? I'm very unhappy with the default but I have no idea what I actually want to change.

This is from a while back, but I've mostly put everything down to the bottom. Basically everything that you might need to pay attention to has been moved down to around the hotbar, forgot to target something to make the bar show up but the target health bar and it's buffs/debuffs is just above the hotbar.




I mostly keep my attention to the hotbar so I can see when things are off cooldown, I've seen people put hotbars they don't actually click or have binds attached to higher up the screen just so they can see cooldowns, might experiment with that at some point.

60-70 made me want to take a drat nap. I know they don't have unlimited writers, but it's downright jarring going from the quest structure and writing of DRK 60-70 into almost any other 60-70 storyline.

I was laughing pretty hard by the level 30 one. Maybe the guildmaster wants to tell me this blueberry fucker's tragic backstory before I get hooped into his dumb plan and forced to sort-of-kind-of kill him?

Depends on how much you feel like grinding in Gold Saucer, and may 27th. I think that's the already extended date from the first day being hosed up.

It's gonna run for two more weeks, ending on the 27th. The car costs 200k MGP. If you want the car, I would get 80+ on Fashion Report this week and the next two weeks. That'll give you 180k MGP as long as you do it each week before reset. The rest is easy to get if you just play Mini Cactpot every day, do GATEs, and fill out your Gold Saucer Challenge Log.
