Can someone explain how ACT works? I've never used it before but now that stormblood's out I'm curious. I know someone in DGKK was using it already in Stormblood but I've never used it before so I dont know what I need to install to make it work.

It works by reading the combat logs that FF14 produces in real time I think. Thats why you can set it to pick up keywords from the logs and do a thing. I remember installing it was pretty easy but I never found it very useful, but I also never got up to real raider tier in HW.

Is it just me or is leveling gatherers slightly faster now? I know new expansions out and here I am working on a level 37 BTN lol.

Huh. Never seen that attitude in an MMO before, but okay. The healer classes in this game do look nicely varied, though I'm still trying to wrap my head around how the astrologer plays.

A healer that can pull random buffs out of a hat?

Continuing the gathering chat from earlier, I just got my first gathering class (miner) to 50. Is there a good leveling collectible rotation? I keep reading that I need 600GP but I've only managed to get to around 540/550ish with HQ right side.

Yeah in terms of game-breaking bugs, "use some NPC appearance assets" is well down the priority list. Especially if you have to actively and intentionally go well out of your way to do it and not just stumble into it through normal play.

Any eurogoons on the EU datacenter want to join a raid static for omega savage and various ex primals? We raid at 18 UTC / 19 BST / 20 ETC / 21 EEST on Mondays and Thursdays. We need 2 dps, preferably one melee but everythings welcome

Oh man, free transfers? Why didn't I learn about this sooner :(

If the other server still has free transfers, where do I find out about it and what do I do to get it? It would be nice to play with goons but :rip: that idea if I have to create a new character since it already took me months just to get to 40.

It should be Louisoix and you transfer there by logging into mog station and trying to transfer as usual, when the price tag comes up it should say 0.00 instead.

I am currently a level 25 CUL, and I am trying to do the HQ Helm Component Ixal quest, but I am having some great difficulties.

I eat Mint Lassi, and everything but my head/ear/neck/bracelet/rings is HQ crafting gear for my level.

CP=253
Control=150
Skill Speed=144
Craftsmanship=161

I usually do this:

Inner quiet > steady hand > hasty touch, then do that as often as possible, sometimes doing master's mend to repair, but I just am not loving doing enough to get high quality up.

Am I missing something? I noticed that goldsmithing thing gets something cross class at 15, do I need that?

I just want to hand in these stupid quests because I'm reputation capped :mad:

I'm going to shill for the crafting optimizer here http://ffxiv-beta.lokyst.net/#/crafter-attributes , plug in your crafter stat on that page, pick your recipe on the simulator page, and it'll spit out a macro that'll give you the best chance of getting HQ without taking the condition stuff into account. It has yet to fail me with a level 60 CUL and 55 BSM where I crafted most of my story HQ turn ins, the only times where it has is when I put in the wrong stats or when RNG decides to gently caress me over in particular. OFC it won't always guarantee HQ stuff and there is an RNG component with hasty touches and w/e, but I think it's awesome anyway :v:

Edit: also if you have access (or a friend with access) to kugane theres a food vendor that sells decent crafter food.

I'm not arguing that basic gearing in GW2 is hard. As I said, they don't have a treadmill there (aside from ascended, which is pretty rude in terms of time gating, but you can circumvent that by spending a lot of ascended materials in the TP. As you noted, it's only really needed for fractals and even then only due to agony resist, but you're really missing out if you don't do fractals, they're fun and about the only challenging content you'll find in GW2 outside of raids).

God help you if you want to play a mesmer though, want that full set of leadership runes that are the ideal rune set for chronomancers? Enjoy doing like... at least 10 if not more runs of Dragon's Stand.

Want that druid backpack from the second most recent LS3 map? I forget how long that takes exactly but I think it's about a month of doing stuff every single day?

Want to wear that neat looking new WvW armor set they added? Hope you've been doing WvW since the game came out, because it wants rank 2000 to wear it.

I think the big thing, come to think of it, is that as time goes on, FF14 nerfs its old grinds to make catch-up easier. Whereas GW2 never does and most things remain as grindy as the day they were introduced.

Or make it more grindy because their ~economist~ said x material was too cheap

Right. Very newbish housing question as i've never touched it before. I have a cottage in Mist and I want to make it look like a hingan cottage. Is this possible? Will I need to purchase a hingan cottage permit to do that? Also if this is the case, as I suspect, will I need to remove the existing house and/or the stuff inside?

I'm pretty sure this is not possible unless you want the shirogane castle walls(maybe). If you get those it's just a cosmetic item that layers over your wall/fence/roof slots so theres no need to rebuild
