Minrad posted:People seem to universally dislike a lot of the new abilities or class mechanics. It seems to be mostly bard players, and it's pretty obvious why. You spend 51 levels getting used to playing one way, then you're suddenly expected to park in one spot like a caster? I haven't played around enough to join the "Yoship ruined bard forever" hate party just yet, but from what I have played, I just plain don't like the Minuet. It runs counter to everything I enjoy about bard.

PSA for anyone looking to roll on Excalibur: All servers are going down tonight for maintenance, so you'll have a good chance to get in when they come back up. This is one of the few times you're guaranteed to not have to contend with all the idlers, so set an alarm or something.

DizzyBum posted:As a side note, finishing all the Hildibrand trials is a requirement for unlocking Trial Roulette. Fortunately they're all easy with PUGs. This isn't true anymore. With 3.0, Trial Roulette works like LLDR and includes any trials you've unlocked.

Verranicus posted:Is the trailblazer set for gatherers even really worth getting considering it has no meld slots? Would the HQ serpentskin set be better to shoot for because if so I'd rather by grinding gil than scrips. HQ serpentskin is going to require either grinding up a crafter yourself or spending several million gil right now. A full set of blue scrip gear will take maybe 2-3 hours of grabbing collectables. As a level 58 fisher using vendor-bought 55 gear and rod, I was able to get about 4 of the noontide whatevers (the lowest level fish that gives scrip) during each 20 minute window they were available. Each one gave 32-38 scrip. Sure, the crafted set will be better, but you're looking at an order of magnitude more difficulty to acquire it. Scrip gear seems to be a great stopgap, which is exactly what it was designed to be.

Gammatron 64 posted:Also another thing of note is that it's really, really weird being in a guild of 500+ people. In FFXI, people in your ls would wave to you whenever you walked by and would say hello when you logged on. In this, I kinda don't bother because I see about a million goons I don't know wherever I go. It's almost like a small town vs. a big city kinda thing. In the country, you generally nod and wave to strangers, but if you do that in the city, people look at you like a weirdo. The traditional goon greeting is /pet. Gammatron 64 posted:Also while you guys have been helpful here (and I greatly appreciate it!) the actual FC chat is almost like barrens chat sometimes. I can't think of anyone who has been a dick to me personally except for one particular goon in 1.0, but man you guys like bringing up drama sometimes. Really? Yikes. In the year or so I've been playing, I don't remember DGKK chat ever getting anywhere near general zone chat levels of stupidity. Like, not in the same ballpark, not even the same sport.

Malloreon posted:I just hit 60 last night and I'm ilevel 143. Do I farm ARF, Neverreap, and Fractal for higher level stuff? Well, about that... You're going to need i145 to enter your next dungeon, so you'll need to get at least one piece upgraded to law gear first. You can get law tomes by running trial roulette, HLDR, or LLDR at 60; doing A/S rank hunts; or a couple other oddball things like maps. Personally, I upgraded my bracelet since it was cheap, and I was still using a tome bracelet from level 50.

Otherwise, use Powerful. You'll know you got it right if your rod sparkles and makes a sound effect.

Nah, trials roulette got changed with 3.0 so that it works like LLDR. It unlocks once you've completed any two of the trials on the list and will only put you in ones you've completed.

mightygerm posted:Yeah, whats really shocking is the massive gulf between bad and competent dps. I'm not sure if this is the game's fault or just a consequence of how easy the story and leveling is. I feel like its even worse in HW because it seems like pugs aren't adapting to the new skills at all, and just regressing to 2.x rotations. I swear that half the BLMs I see in DF don't use enochian at all. Eventually people hit a cap on how much they are willing to study and practice for a videogame, and I don't see how any game-related content is going to change that. If the game gets too "hard" for them to play, they aren't going to suddenly up and say "Oh gee, I'd better download a parser and run drills on the practice dummy every night." They're going to say "Oh well, guess I'm not getting any farther than this" and either take to the forums to beg for content nerfs or find another game to play.

nuru posted:NY point was mainly that gearing via just scrip is going to take a very long time unless prices are in the realm of 50 to 100 per piece. The vendor vs melded idea was pretty clear though. I took a quick look at the gathering gear this morning before work. The mainhands require 26 Rowena's tokens each, at 50 red scrips per. With 450 red scrips a week, that's 3 weeks.

Moldy Taxes posted:I've seriously considered buying a 3rd optional retainer, but of all things, the only thing holding me back is the thought of having to level another retainer through ventures. Having to check back every hour to receive useless crap I'm gonna toss feels like a chore. The 18 hour ventures work well for leveling, since you can set it and forget it. Alternatively, just check back every hour since you're already checking on your other retainers every hour to retrieve Mythrite Sand, Deepeye Tears, Chimera Manes, or any of the other items you can resell for mad cash.

If only DPS queues worked the same way... More importantly, red scrips for fishing collectables have gone up to 12, or 16 if starred, from 10 or 12 if starred. That makes things a little easier, but won't really be a huge jump. You're still going to have to be prepared to sink some time into it. Of course, if you're not, I don't know how you made it this far with fishing in the first place. I'm still on track to be slinging a fancy new rod by this weekend. Depending on what collectable windows I can hit tonight, I may stock up so I have some ready to turn in right after the reset.

Panic! at Nabisco posted:The yukata in the event are actually different from last year's; they're the 1.0 yukata. Oh hey, I'll have to go back and grab those then. I thought they were the same ones I already had. No big deal seeing as I was already planning to run the event FATEs a bunch to level characters. I have a bunch of classes at 30 that I could stand to get to 32 so I can outfit them in Brayflox gear. The quick pop rate combined with the close proximity and the hordes of people running them makes it rather painless.

Prop Wash posted:So yeah so far the game is fun and I can definitely see myself at least making it to the end of the basic story. I do wish there was more stuff I could do with non-randomly assigned players at my level. Maybe that's my fault for joining PBC instead of, like, a newbie guild. Be sure to ask around when you're doing dungeons or whatever. There are still plenty of people leveling alt classes, and on-level dungeons are a great way to do that. When I see someone asking for a group for a story dungeon, I always try to jump in if I've got a class around that range.

IcePhoenix posted:Is there a newbie guide that explains how leveling up other classes and stuff works? Each class has its own experience track, gear set, and skill bindings. It works almost like switching characters in other MMOs, except that you can do it at any time. If you switch classes outside of a sanctuary area, your skills will be on cooldown for a few seconds. Once you've reached level 10 in your first class, you can just walk into any guild and speak to the receptionist. They give you an intro quest to talk the the guildmaster who will give you your first mainhand for that class. Equipping the mainhand means you're now acting as that class, with access to its skills and putting experience towards it. Starting a new class will also give you an additional gear set in the armoury system so you can save a set of equipment for each class you have. Any combat class other than your highest leveled one will earn a 100% bonus on experience gained below level 50, and a 50% bonus above level 50. This bonus means you can get a secondary class up to 15 to unlock your job stone by finishing your first couple hunting logs and running a few low level FATEs. It doesn't really make a big difference whether you do this now or once wait until you hit 30 on your main class, just so long as you get it done and get your job stone ASAP.

Like Final Fantasy is so engrained in a PvE centric world and environment and story..but I WANT TO KILL THAT DUDE THAT JUST HELP ME SLAY THE DRAGON The only thing to understand is that most of these people do not actually want challenging combat versus other real players. What they want is the ability to be a complete dick to people with no real consequences.

No, the level cap is per class, not in total. You can reach level 60 in everything on the same character.
