Third attempt at playing this game and working through the ARR postgame. I decided to resubscribe and start anew with a friend as a tank/healer combo. This game is more fun when you play with someone else and not by yourself. Go figure.

Why did the rhythm game section in the 6.4 Tataru quest last for less time than the tutorial took to read.

I've settled on something falling apart in development cause they've dropped a couple hints in prior interviews over 6.x about how they really want to bring back the G-Warrior and they worked so hard on the solo instance that they can't just end it at that, and then to end it at this instead... very funny, though.

It's really weird, because the previous times they've used that system are/were longer, so it isn't like it's some brand new thing they were testing out. There was a Starlight Celebration rhythm game, with different versions depending on how well or poorly you were doing, and the Firmament capstone quest uses it with the WoL playing piano.

A heads up for anyone that's using the S-E phone app for their 2-factor: it's getting discontinued in 2024. That announcement is mostly about how it won't be an option for adding 2-factor to your account in November, but it does say it'll be completely going away in 2024. The physical keyring token will continue working, as will other authenticator apps, and they recommend switching to one of those sooner than later.

And when you change the 2fa that you're using (because you 100% are using 2fa, there is no good reason reason not to), take that time to make sure your square emergency removal key is saved to your password manager

Probably not getting much use now that people can sign up with google authenticator and whatnot now, so it’s not worth maintaining the app.

goblin week posted:I'm working really hard to get it but it's loving hard to strategize against three people even with the risk markers It's super frustrating because it's the only achievement in the game where you can lose progress as you go (as opposed to just not making any progress at all). According to my screenshots, I had 390 matches played when I finally got it, which included far too many cases where I got up to 1950+ rating only to get completely destroyed the next few matches after that. And because of how the rating works, a last place in a match makes you drop a lot more than what you gain from getting first place.

 Forgot where I'd logged out and when I logged in my first thought was "did some UI thing break? What is this? Edit: By the way, the reason there's two lancer icons is because the Lancers are red/black and the Wood Wailers, who use the back of the Lancers' Guild, are yellow/green. The Archers/Gods' Quiver have a similar delineation. Bruceski fucked around with this message at 00:37 on Aug 23, 2023 |

Likely not news to anyone, bit the Majestic Manderville "pistol" totally looks like it was lifted straight out of a Valkryia Chronicles game. Just an endgame shock trooper "smg" ported into XIV. Not that that's a bad thing, mind.

If you're interested in an elegant double barrel shotgun, do a spot of pvp for a wolf musketoon. It's a very nice and easy to get example of that model.

Eorzea Database is honestly your best bet, as the user-submitted screenshots are generally pretty good. Failing that, Gamer Escape is a decent second choice.

Bloody Pom posted:PvP also lets you get a comically oversized revolver. This is my current MCH glam weapon, to go with my Shire-gear-based Slobby PI look (from before Lawless or Noir, admittedly, but I still like it so I haven't tried other sets). It's tempting to do something new and crazy for the Manderville glowgat, though.

Yeah the newest Manderville MCH weapon is like a mini gatling gun with a scope. It makes no sense and looks awesome

Bloody Pom posted:PvP also lets you get a comically oversized revolver. It also has a comically undersized pistol. It hasn't come up in a while, so I feel like I should mention that these GARO collaboration items (probably) aren't going to be permanently available in the game. They haven't announced an end date yet, but the first time it was available it ran for almost three years so there's likely still plenty of time left. That said, it takes a bit of investment to unlock all of the gear and mounts, so you don't want to let that all wait for a time limit. Once the event ends, or before that if you don't want to use Glamour Dresser slots, for any Job you have completed the achievement and got the title for you can go to any Calamity Salvager and rebuy pieces for cheap gil costs. To get an achievement you have to buy the weapon and the 5 specific left-side pieces for a Job, accessories don't count, from the Disreputable Priest in Wolves' Den Pier, wear them (edit: I forgot to mention these all have a level 60 requirement to equip, aside from offhand down below) and then talk to the same NPC and present yourself. It takes 18,000 Wolf Marks, a little under the cap, to buy everything for one Job. (There are some armor sets that share Jobs so you only have to buy them once with the weapons being the only new piece required, but they aren't the normal armor divisions.) The other things the title let's you do is earn the three metallic horse mounts. Any PvP victories while you're wearing a GARO title (it doesn't have to match your Job) will count towards up to two of three achievements which each award a mount: win 10 Frontlines/Rival Wings matches, win 30 Crystalline Conflict matches (Feast victories carry over if you had any from the last time this event happened) and win 60 PvP matches of any kind. There are also undyeable versions of the weapons and armor available in the Gold Saucer for MGP, but they don't count for the title and thus can't be rebought at a Calamity Salvager. It's also a bit spendy, at 300,000 MGP for everything for just one Job, so they aren't worth it unless you're a free trial player, desperately want something available below level 60 or are heavily averse to PvP and just want something limited like the weapon or a few pieces of armor. (If you aren't a free trial player or looking for specifically undyeable level 1 glam items, I'd still heavily suggest getting the achievement. It will all be dyeable alongside being permanently available if you accidentally delete something. It takes very little to get enough Wolf Marks for a full set, especially if you make use of the 1,000 Trophy Crystals to 1 Wolf Collar to 4,000 Wolf Marks conversion.)
