Is it just wonky or is it BROKEN? I'm thinking about what to level after my DRK and shooting things seems pretty fun.

It isn't broken, just subpar. Early on it feels like ARC, to me.

Anyone else have to reset passwords today because of "suspected suspicious activity"? Really odd because I'm extra meticulous about online passwords and computer security, and I resubbed just last week after having to go through an ordeal to get my email changed and password reset to even access my account.

Oh well. DLing the 3gb release patch now. Who knows..

Do you use the authenticator?

Edit: if you're more meticulous than "actually changes your passwords" you can cause false positives, like if you're using VPN often or changing IPs frequently.

I am destined to be stuck on Ravana, I guess. This expansion has been a serious letdown between the ridiculous barrier to flight and somehow being completely unable to get seven people decent at this game together for an unchallenging boss fight.

And don't tell me to ask the guild, I've been completely ignored four loving times.

I'm not Smash Ko, nor have I trolled the guild. I just think it's crazy that I've been asking for help since early access and ignored so often, even when I was persistently annoying. But yeah, that attitude doesn't help, I'll PUG it and suffer. Thanks.

You annoy the poo poo out of people and then cry about it when people don't want to deal with you? You aren't making anybody here feel bad about themselves.

onesixtwo posted:

DGKK or PBC? And is this four times of 'hey come help me do this trial' during FC rambling at whatever stupid bullshit, or did you actively annoy them until a group filled? It takes more than asking a single time for people to pay attention and or notice. Whenever I offer to help newbies on doing stuff, I usually take over asking in /fc for them since they are afraid to ask more than once every hour it seems. We don't mind spam, half of FC chat is white noise.

Annoy them until a group fills up. It can be, and does get done multiple times a day. Rage posting on the forums isn't really gonna get you much response other than 'ask the fc' because thats what literally everyone else does.

Really, there's no winning.

SE seriosely if you make a story like heavensward .... you really should let us choice which path to follow


I for one would love to help the dragons slaughter every man woman and child in isgard after that story


its in their blood to commit the same sins over and over again thats why the dragons need to do a purg to end it once and for all its not psychotic


and again dragon wants revenge he should be allowed to get it..... Forgiveness is for the weak ,pathic and stupid

Was this a repost or are you drinking? Your heart's in the right place. With XIV's heavy usage of in-game cutscenes, branching stories are easier to pull off, especially if they kept the general area progression similar.

Is most of the population doing HW / done leveling or am I just unlucky? At best I see one or two people doing low level fates, usually I just end up soloing them if I do them. I've spent most of my time in la noscea fwiw, though when I did the anniversary quest (which was loving rad) there were quite a few people doing it

e: also thanks for the dye knowledge manyorcas!

Most of the population that got HW were playing it two weeks before release. Not only are they done leveling, most of them are done with the 60 dungeons, The Fractal Continuum and Neverreap.

Maybe once a day for EXDR but no more, and like anything else tanks are in short supply.

What you're asking for cannot exist in the game currently.

Edit: Also, let's be honest, you probably don't actually want to have 1500 goons in a single chat channel.

I wonder how many SA goons are actually in each guild? Since we can invite friends/family. I'd be shocked if we fit into a single LS, but two? Wouldn't surprise me.

I guess it's really about how much FATE grinding you can stomach, because doing FATEs in that time is going to be a lot better for you in terms of experience but it's certainly a lot more tedious and I wouldn't begrudge someone going down a questing rabbithole for a while instead

It's pretty easy to go through the game doing quests, dungeons as you unlock them, and nearly never doing FATEs unless Lightning happens to be hanging out.

Why ever FATE grind?? If you don't have to grind.
