CharlieFoxtrot posted:F-tier: Leatherworker: gently caress this crafting job if I weren't a completionist I wouldn't be doing this. All the recipes are complicated as gently caress, all the base recipes come from beast drops so you have to farm them with a combat class that gets little to no benefit from it plus you're rolling the dice to see if you're even getting the thing, compared to mining/botany, which makes buying from the market as a shortcut also expensive as gently caress because you're paying the markup, then each animal drops like 3 different items so your inventory is completely cluttered with bullshit, fur is murder it makes me mad because having to grind for wool/fur/skins is the most tedious and time consuming part of crafting.

Awesome! posted:i thought godberts whole gimmick was not wearing pants but then i had to talk to him during msq and he was wearing pants and my world was shattered Godbert wears pants to withhold his awesome power. That's why you and everyone in the immediate area eventually start running like hell whenever he strips down.  Awesome! posted:the msq part i am talking about is when nanamo wanted to give money to ala mhigan refugees and godbert told her that was dumb you just have the quick chat with him and move on. Godbert can be counted on to wear clothes at the Gold Saucer, Syndicate meetings, and the Starlight Festival. Otherwise, all bets are off.

BisterdDave posted:These ~30 min. roulette wait times for DPS role are really starting to dissuade me from keeping up with my dancer. Really thinking about going back to tank. 61-70 doing Heaven on High is really good and fast for dps. Beyond that you just gotta occupy your time in queue doing fates or beast tribe dailies which give good xp. Or ask in FC if anyone wants to queue for roulettes!

i'm mildly curious about this game after everybody has kept bombing the wow forum about how good this game is. i understand i can start for free now, but how crippling is it to start for free and then have to upgrade later? i plan on playing on the PC and am inclined to just buy the complete edition straight up, unless there's some really great benefit to starting without it. what is the best class to level solo for the first time through the story stuff?

If you've never played before, you can get the trial version and level a character up to 35. If you do decide to go all the way then you just purchase the game and it will let you continue playing seamlessly. AFAIK it's not like other free-to-start setups (like SWTOR) where they deny you conveniences (like being able to use mounts), it's the entire thing anyone could access if they started out with the full purchased game Edit: oh yeah there is the communication restriction but that's not a big deal at the beginning CharlieFoxtrot fucked around with this message at 23:31 on Nov 9, 2019 |

Free trial is up to level 35. There are some rather severe communication limitations presumably to cut spam from trial accounts. The main limitation that'll affect you is being unable to group up or join a free company (player guilds) until you buy. Just don't try or buy on Steam since that limits you from taking advantage of non-Steam sales. Also make sure to use a RAF code (from here) when you do intend to buy and start a sub. Everything works solo. Tanks probably get by far the fastest dungeon queues, followed closely by healers, then dps.

Keep in mind, base game 20 bucks, shb + other expansions is 40. If you don't like any of the small trial restrictions you can just pick up the base game.

Any class is viable, but I'd go for a DPS job (just pick the one you think is the coolest, they're all pretty well-balanced and you can switch to another job on the same character if you don't like your current one). They're good at solo content, and their slow multiplayer queues matter less when you're getting showered with goodies for going through the story for the first time. They're also usually the least essential element of multiplayer content, so you can learn how things work at your leisure without feeling like you're ruining a bunch of other people's days. Alternatively, try a tank. They've got slightly less interesting combat options, but they dish out respectable damage, have some fun toys, get fast queues, and make you feel like the main character in multiplayer. Healers are perfectly functional solo, but very boring, and can be a bit scary for new players in multiplayer content.

Splash Attack posted:ltw isn’t so bad and i do like it for the items it gives you, but boy is farming the mats tedious. i have my retainers that are jobbed to a DoM/DoW class farm them and even then i get about 10-15 skins every hour. there apparently were plans to implement a shepherd/skinner class in 1.0 but that fell through and leatherworker/weaver have to rely on drops or retainers for certain items. I am honestly torn between going out and farming these items myself versus just saying "it'd be better for me just to run dungeons and buy off the market," I don't know which way would actually be better value. Leveling my gatherers has been generally revenue-neutral or even positive but crafters are most definitely a money sink. I had 1 crafter above 50 and the rest at level 1 a week ago and now they are all at 50 or just about... but I also dropped from nearly a million gil to 350,000. (And I still have to knock out all the guild quests for each past level 25  )

It's weaver that was a pain for me, what with having to craft threads to craft special threads to craft cloth and so on until you have no crystals left. Don't hesitate to favourite the mats you need a lot of and server hop for the cheapest pricings on the market board, I've seen some mats with huge variance in prices, like 2.5k on a server and 8k on another. This can save you a lot of gils and you can play AH baron if you a find a 99 stack listed for way below market value

My strategy for leatherworker materials was to claim the Free Company chest and start sending my combat retainer out constantly for skins far in advance of the tiers I'd actually be crafting so when I actually GOT to crafting I'd have like, stacks of 200-300 waiting. This was not a fast strategy.

lol so I need a savage aim materia III to finish this quest and all the listings in the market are in bundles of 50 Edit: I just bought one of those bundles then relisted the rest for 99% of what I paid. I guess if I want to make an optimal budget I should also factor in taxes and my teleportation expenses... CharlieFoxtrot fucked around with this message at 00:55 on Nov 10, 2019 |

I’ve found that items on Excalibur are sometimes significantly more expensive than on the other worlds.
