aers posted:That's all well and good but here's what the framerate limiter does to my FPS I make no assumptions about your system, but found that FFXIV really freaks the gently caress out when you set an FPS limiter at the driver level, and then also set one in-game. In my case, it was NVidia's thing that they lock behind a login, but gently caress logging in to GFE just for that.

MCH AF2 goggles work and /visor on Hrothgar, according to a handy pubbie in shout chat. Based on names, it is now time to find out whether or not Hrothgar slavsquat for a /groundsit. :unsmiggh: SettingSun posted:A designated off tank class would be awful. Who wants to play second fiddle out of anything but necessity? I mean, uh. 2nd tank is 1st DPS, basically. Just look at Bears in WoW for the entire TBC -> WOTLK era. (though, that said, I *do* get what you're saying. I got shoved into the offtank spot because I was one of the uh... less-mentally-deficient people in my static, and got to be the person that did all the mechanics, instead of actually tanking.) edit: and I'm not using that as a euphemism, I mean, actually, mentally-deficient. One of the DPS was the MT's ex-husband, who managed to successfully hide the fact that he was completely redpilled until AFTER they got married, and that on top of believing in saving himself for marriage, that he only believed in reproductive sex. And he would loving stand in every single goddamn loving puddle. edit edit: And parse near the bottom all of the time. edit edit edit: coincidentally or not, as a Retadin. You can draw your own conclusions. SwissArmyDruid fucked around with this message at 21:50 on Jun 28, 2019 |

https://old.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/c6jg2h/qol_sound_finally_comes_through_headset_if/?st=jxgko7fc&sh=c97afa03 Apparently, the sound programmer rebuilt the game so that it doesn't crash when you plug in new sound devices? (Yoshida mad.) Also, question: Is the dwarf area front half of the game, or the back half?

Kaubocks posted:starting a petition to give me an option to turn the TP bar back on even if it does nothing just because the screen feels empty without it Do what I did, put your other gauges in its place. Now, if only they would split the HP and MP bars up so that I can hide the MP bar on jobs that have absolutely zero use for them. Internet Explorer posted:So the wife and I are considering playing this, but looking at the Free Trial it seems like one of the limitations is you can't invite people to parties? Should we just get the base game on Steam (Starter Edition?) and then buy the latest expansion if we get that far? Bless you for asking first, but knowing my luck, by the time you read this, you will have already regged accounts using the Steam version. You're locked into buying all your future expansions through Steam, and can never take advantage of the steeply ramping discounts that happen shortly before and after an expansion launch. Furthermore, it has been indicated by the devs in the future (and through datamined login strings) that current Steam-purchased copies of the game will be forced to log in to Steam in order to fire up the launcher to punch in your password and authenticator code.

Truth Quark posted:It saddens me that even if you teleport to the Source when you're a ticking time bomb waiting to turn into a lightwarden that the game can't actually acknowledge it. It would have really cool to see people react to that particular circumstance but I understand why its basically not possible. I suspected this would be a plot beat in some shape or fashion, good to see my instincts for detecting Ascian plots weren't far off.

It's my fault, guys, I looked at the Excal market board and saw that people were selling the 78 HQ crafted axe for something like eight times vendor NQ, got mad, remembered that World Visit is a thing, figured out how to do that, and then went and ransacked every other server on our datacenter for cheapo PLD swords to get my BSM desynth over the hump. I think I walked away with something like 50 of them from 15K to 20K apiece. (also got me a smashy hammer! Which I was in the process of taking screenshots using just before the servers went kablooey)

Annath posted:Like, how John Madden we talking? Wrath-era Feral Druid? Let's be clear here, as one of those aforementioned Wrath-era Feral Druids that also did Hybrid Feral on top of everything else, I think Feral's complexity was vastly overblown, and I'm certain that 90% of actual Feral players just yukked it up and rolled with the external perception for pride and shits and giggles. The meme seems to have taken on a life of its own though, but really, a lot of MMO jobs can be reduced to the same "make sure these these self-buffs are rolling, make sure these debuffs are rolling, and if X happens ahead of time because of procs, dump to Y before returning to the core loop".

Explored the dwarf area to my heart's content, burned the Fantasia I'd chugged a month earlier.  Man in a corset alert:  Ka mate! Ka mate!  Ka ora! Ka ora!  Edit: You know what I feel like when I'm running around as a Hrothgar? Like when I was playing an Orc back in WoW. I'm starting to think that SE might actually be onto something with the differentiated body types here. SwissArmyDruid fucked around with this message at 09:02 on Jul 9, 2019 |

Leofish posted:Your Hrothgar looks a lot like mine, but I went Helion instead of Lost. I honestly felt the same way about the Orc thing. Kinda nostalgic, in a way. With green skin options, I considered making the closest facsimile to my old Orc Warrior as I could, but I ended up sticking with the old lion look. I'm still not 100% sold on him yet. Like, holy poo poo, the Hrothgar body model is one thiccccc bih. I like the way he moves and emotes and sounds, (voice 1 for this old fart, 9 for the younger version of him) but all my glamour were originally made for a Roegadame, and so many of them are just not suitable for the new bodytype. Also, he can't wear big doofy hats, which is like, half my AST glamour, so that's a severe disappointment. Azubah posted:Elidibus was the "reasonable" one, correct? Sure.

tithin posted:I'm not sure what just happened in the MSQ, it's years behind but I know I'm not the only one playing through MSQ for the first time Unfortunately, the EN localization is too flowery for its own good. Going to the JP script, we can see that: * Midgardsormr and Hydelyn are well-acquainted with eachother, and even appear to be on equal terms with eachother. * Death does not appear to affect Midgardsormr the way that it does other things. * Hydelyn's is under some major hurt keeping you buffed all this time. * Hydelyn cuts a deal with Midgardsormr: Watch over the sprout WoL, and you can suck down a bunch of aether from my blessing and/or leech it from the WoL. * Midgardsormr is unconvinced of your actual worthiness, so on top of all that, and making himself a new body out of the consumed aether, he caps you off from Hydelyn. If you're worthy, you'll start powering your plot armor by yourself, instead of relying on crystalmom's flagging battery. * So Mini-gardsormr's gonna watch, and you'll have to keep playing to find out the consequences.

Harrow posted:I don't know how people Fantasia their WoL because at this point I'm so attached to my character that I can't even change his hairstyle without feeling like something is wrong. Honestly? I fault the ability to have all the jobs on one character. Sometimes, the jobs just don't always look convincingly-animated for what I play. (I also always gently caress around with Fantasias at the end of each expansion to amuse myself during the doldrums, but that's separate to the other thing) At any rate, observe, the many faces of this particular WoL:   Highlady through all of ARR, catboy on the backend of ARR leading into HW.   (These two did not last more than a week, each. They really put the waif into waifu, and I couldn't get over that run.)      My roegadame, which I have THE MOST TIME spent, through all of HW and SB. Also, when I learned to use ReShade. Also, when I forced myself to start taking more screenshots. Surprisingly, all animations work well for them, from NIN to WAR. My only complaint is that some of the generic female combat idle animations are overly dainty. But that's a tradeoff I'm willing to make to get one of the better flying chair sits.    The potato I spent the last few months of SB as, and through all of MSQ, because I wanted to be able to explore the potato-only areas. I was underwhelmed, and unless they add more in the future, not worth going potato for the sake of it. Tanking as a potato is amusing. Ka mate, ka mate! ka ora! ka ora!What I fantasiaed to Monday night. Holy poo poo Hrothgar are dummy thicc, and I can't buy him doing the healer or MCH thing. Absolutely a race that I would only ever play as tank/melee DPS/specific casters. Unless the Hrothgar naming conventions come out soon, I'm probably going to pop one of my last two Fantasias to detour through Viera on my way back to Roegadame.

jokes posted:This is why I play a human. I want to play a Roe, but it seems to weird to be a WHM. I want to be a Lalafell, but it would feel off to play War. For me, the only constant is that I play WAR. I have other problems with WHM that make me not want to play it. Like, I physically get angry whenever I play WHM, because of how easy it is to heal on that job, but all the lovely healers are inexorably pulled to it. Also, drat, I editted right after, but you caught me.

It is possible to plug in a keyboard or use a wireless keyboard if it has its own dongle. You can even play the game with the keyboard! He's not wrong. If you're scared shitless out of your mind, and El Presidente holds up a beacon of hope that might involve you committing seppuku, you might let your fear take over and drive you towards that with the thought that anything, even death, is better than facing the the various horrors created by wildly out-of-control creation magics.

In my desire for all the pets and such possible I'm faced with the sightseeing log. I'm looking over this thing and oh boy is this going to be rough. I found one earlier but apparently you can only activate it at 8AM to 12PM server time if it's cloudy. So I guess that's going to be a long term goal.
