When I am in a non-rested area I always get a 'could not apply glamours here' message when I switch to a different glamour plate. But the glamour seems to apply just fine from what I can see so...what's the error about?

Okay I see, thanks. Another two random questions: 1) is there really no way to bind chat log position to hud template? 2) why do some dungeons scale your ilvl while others do not? for example Hullbreaker isle or Stone Vigil (hard) do but Sastasha(hard) does not.

You know how this thread always warns people about the post ARR slog? You ought to be warning them about Stormblood instead.

Ibblebibble posted:I genuinely think that Stormblood was better than Heavensward, storywise. The expansion was boring as hell and nothing surprising or unexpected happened. I really hope it was all an elaborate setup for great stuff to come. The post-patches have already been a marked improvement so far...altough nobody ever stays truly dead in this story, do they? At this point I am 100% convinced Papalymo is just chilling on a island somewhere...

Yeah I am (nearly) entirely unspoiled about the whole game. The only two things I know are that in Shadowbringers there is a Nier: Automata inspired raid which I am VERY much looking foward to and that in Endwalker you apparently end up going to the Moon

Well, from what I've seen of Shadowbringers so far, it seems the devs are big fans of FF13-3 and Bayonetta

If you queue for a specific dungeon/raid, do you get matched with people who are queuing for roulette? Cause it's EU prime time now and I've been waiting for over 30 minutes as a tank which doesn't seem right....

Orcs and Ostriches posted:Which are you queued for? The Puppet's Bunker, the second Nier: Automata raid. Xerophyte posted:- If it's an alliance raid then tank queues are sometimes quite long. Tanks are 1/8th of an alliance raid, instead of the 1/4th they are everywhere else. I suppose this must be why then

Xerophyte posted:There are a couple of other things that can contribute. As mentioned there is a bias in the roulette to the lower level raids: partly because of people intentionally tanking their ilvl before queueing, mostly because if you take 20 random people from the front of the roulette queue and try to find a viable raid then the odds are pretty high that at least one of them will be queued on a job <L60 which then forces Crystal Tower for everyone. Ah, I never thought of that but yeah, that makes perfect sense. Orcs and Ostriches posted:Alliance raids also have the problem that a lot of players either don’t unlock the optional ones, or will take gear off to make sure they can’t queue into the latter ones. Never thought of that either. Reminds me of WoW at one time when it would count gear in your bags for ilvl, even for different roles but...inverted

radintorov posted:Here is something important to remember about the QTE sections: first off, since they are not all that common, the game does the nice thing of providing ample warning that they are coming with a big on-screen warning, and you should honestly start hitting buttons as soon as you see it. But in the end you are still defending QTEs in a game made after 2010. (I was not sure whether to laugh or cry when I first encountered them)

Bruceski posted:If I remember right the official response after that was "we've got an item that's tied to [then 400] different pieces of equipment that a player actively cares about. Do you want to risk something worse going wrong? I don't." GilliamYaeger posted:Yeah Glamour Dressers are infamously not housing items because when they tried to implement it they actually managed to crash the entire test server they were using by IIRC removing it while someone was using it. I suppose if they tried to implement the ability to queue in duty finder as multiple jobs the servers would probably outright explode then.

They really ran out of ideas for red mage at level 50 huh? Not that I am complaining, most of the jobs in the game are so insanely bloated something like red mage or summoner are really welcome but it is kinda funny how it doesn't gain anything substantial for nearly 40 levels.

Jonny 290 posted:Finished the 5.x quests. Time to walk the end. Absolutely do that. The Nier raids are amazing (even though I have no loving clue what the story was about and yes I read all the dialogue and watched the cutscenes. I still don't.) They are only beaten by the Endwalker alliance raids which are even better.

GilliamYaeger posted:The grind is also soul-destroying. If you want a glowy weapon, either go buy one off the Marketboard or beat Heavensward so you can do the level 60 relics (which are much better, but one step wants you to have a crafter levelled...which is easy enough with the Ishgard Restoration). You don't need to be a crafter yourself for that step, the materials can be bough either on trading post or with company seals. If you want a glowy weapon then the second stage of the Shadowbringers relic is also an option but the 60 memories you are asked to grind is way worse than HW relics. I suppose ther is also Stormblood/Eureka but I have no clue how that even works, I have never even been there. Also, re: ARR relics: if you unlock the base one on all classes, you get a title!

Is there any setting anywhere that makes player overhead HP bars not get obscured by NPCs? This is probably the dumbest UI design decision ever and makes then completely useless when tanking since I can't see mine half the time.

I was in your situation about 3 months ago and yes, the base game story is utter garbage and yes, it does get much better later on. Heavensward especially was a legit good story. Shadowbringers I thought was a bit overrated but the premise was definitely intriguing, Stormblood was boring and at times nearly ARR level of insufferable mainly the part with the NOBLE WARRIORS OF STEPPES, ugh and Endwalker tried it's best to tie up every loose end and provide a somewhat coherent ending and, baring one asspull of a concept dynamis, mostly succeeded.

What do I do with the uncapped tomestones? 620 gear is useless when Aetherfont drops 625 and the 630 upgrades require a run of both 24mans per piece. Relics I guess?

Mister Olympus posted:Yeah but when I hear “cross dc play” i think of “all regional dcs merged so that you can queue in aether and get matched with people in crystal” It's pretty wild this is not a thing a decade in. I understand cross-region play is challenging to make work but this? (although, didn't they talk about how cross-region is totally possible at the fan fest? Odd they'd be working on that before even linking all the regional datacenters into a single pool...)

Certainly they will have to increase the limit? I am at nearly 700 myself with nothing but alliance raid and job armor.... Veotax posted:If you brought anything from the cash shop, then all of that is going to be able to be put in armoire in 6.5 (or 7.0, I forget which). So that can free up some dresser slots. I've always wondered - why can you put the level 50 job armor into it but not any of the subsequent ones? What's the difference?

Pryce posted:If you talk to The Smith (the NPC with the giant sprout over their head), they'll show you a window with a checklist and how close you are to qualifying. You can find them throughout the ARR zones (but most likely in the starting cities' Adventurers' Guilds). When I last talked to that NPC (granted, that was about 300 hours ago) there wasn't any such option. Just the solo learning instances. I don't remember anything directing me to go and talk to him again either. That's why I wondered why it was seemingly a semi-hidden feature.

Yeah the ability to queue macros feels a bit like cheating which the launcher authors said they wouldn't allow in plugins but hey I'll keep (ab)using it as long as it's there.

I play exclusively on controller and I only use hold (and extended bars) on healers. On dps and tanks I use mixed (to still have access to RT+LT bar) since gently caress holding down RT all the time. The downside is, it does require the combo and queable macro addons on all jobs except for summoner.

Nitrousoxide posted:I'd thought that GW2 had a decent controller setup with its action cam and player made control maps in steam, but FFXIV has been leaps and bounds better just by virtue of not having to use mouse emulation for selecting in windows or managing items. That's because even though FF14's tab target combat is utterly unsuitable to controllers, the game was nevertheless designed with them in mind and they made sure it works, while GW2 is the complete opposite - action combat well suited to a controller - but never designed around supporting them.
