Well, what do you "desire" in MMOs? Maybe you can figure out what you really want to play if you look for something more specific than a MMO. For example, If you are looking for dungeon crawling and gear farming, maybe a Diablo clone (clickfest or not) will be a better choice.

The South Seas Isles. They aren't mentioned at any point before the Fifth Umbral Era, when they came across the seas while they were frozen in an ice age. There are some hints that Allagans made them in a lab.

Lalafell came from Allagan laboratories as evidenced by aetherochemical compounds 123 and 666
They have zero mention of existing at all before the 6th age iirc even though the South Sea islands they call their homeland were directly in the path of the Allagan war machine
Theory is that they were a failed chimeric experiment ala the Ixal which are confirmed to be Allagan made

>>376668345
>They have zero mention of existing at all before the 6th age iirc
They came across the frozen seas in the 5th Era, then Shatotto invented black magic and they were heavily involved in the War of the Magi. Mhachi survivors founded Belah'dia in the 6th Era, and Nymian survivors went back to the South Seas Isles until they heard that a bunch of sailors were living where Nym used to be and came back.

I'd rather have a textured fairy that, when you zoom is, you can see its features and what not.

SCH is both the superior pet class and has better models.

>>376669263
It is, it was confirmed by the latest live letter. It was also shown in action in the benchmark, along with BTN/MIN underwater gathering. I wonder if any new spearfishing achievements will auto-unlock for having the gigging ones from 1.0.

My sub ran out today and not sure if I even want to bother resubbing. Pic related is what I finished on my 1st month sub. I'm pretty sad the way Arcanist turned out since I was expecting an actual pet class with SMN and not a DoT/AoE class with an added half-assed pet. MNK seems cool but I heard it's a pain to do well. AST was fun and seem to be my go-to healer. I don't like tanking but I would like to have one of each class. Is it even worth resubbing? No idea what I would even do besides doing potd to level up.

>>376670313
Limsa is the only city that has knowingly prompted the summoning of a primal through a broken treaty so they can steal resources, and has continued to do so for 15 god damn years now. All Merlwyb has to fucking do is stop killing Kobolds to take their shit and suddenly there'd be one less primal being summoned.

>>376670407
>leveling up with PotD
don't do this to yourself, don't force yourself to resub either
as long as you've finished the HW MSQ, you'll be fine for 4.0

>>376670469
What the FUCK is up with the names of some of the NPC's in Limsa? It looks like some of them just slammed their keyboard to name them. I think one of them by the aftcastle is called asdlsky or something.

>>376670313
Not nearly to the same degree as it does Limsa. Ixal are assholes to everyone, Amal'jaa are violent tempered savages (though the Ul'Dahns deserve to ve ahit on for their own internal politics, not
their beast tribe policies. Titan would literally never be a threat if Limsa didn't actively provoke the summoning by being a bunch of backstabbing fuckwads.

>>376670469
>killing filthy beastmen

>>376670469
Beastmen aren't people and might makes right. The only thing Merlwyb did wrong was not killing all of the kobolds.

>>376670569
I didn't finish the MSQ. The plan was to get WAR, AST, and MNK to 60 but I got distracted with gathering and only got AST to 60. I'm a few quests after you do the GGL.

>>376670619
They're old high Germanic names. They're not actually that hard to decipher if you stare at them for a minute. Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn = Mer(ocean as in mermaid) Wyb (wife), Bloe (blue) Fhis (fish) wyn (daughter). Wife of the Sea, Daughter of Blue Fish

Woah dude, that's probably the only important thing to do before SB.
Just play the job you like the most, you don't have to play all of them. Cross-skill system is changing in SB, so you don't have to level other jobs to get the skills you need.

>>376670853
No, she hired the Company of Heroes, who only won because they sent wave after wave of cannon fodder so that Leviathan and Titan couldn't temper all of them at once. And that was just one time 10 years ago.

>>376670619
Ahldskyf if i remember the spelling correctly and it means old (ahld) boat (skiff is a type of boat). They're names are in old roegadyn language that's based on german or something like that. And it's also only the sea wolves that get names like that. Hellsguard are basically adjective noun. Best part about that is that a name like Hard Wood would technically be lore friendly for them.

I enjoy MNK but it really is bullshit that your damage output is nerfed when soloing content or when mechanics/tanks just fuck you over. IIRC there's a boss somewhere that doesn't have a back/flank.

We;re just here to look like dracula. Not min/max, not to ERP.

I don't remember ever seeing another one, we're just here to get shit done.

What's the implication of skills being move to cross-role skills pool in 4.0?

Does that mean the original class that have the skills will get something to compensate?

Like for example, B4B and IR is probably being move to the skill pool, does that mean LNC and PGL will each get 1 new skill to compensate for it?

>>376674864

>>376674447
if they just have a plain circle indicator under it, it's omnidirectional. if they have the 3/4 circle with an arrow in front, you have to actually hit the positionals

kraken has an arrow on it unless i'm severely misremembering things

>>376674660
as i said, arr is weird in places. i'm pretty sure cloud of darkness was the first boss to use the new system but there might have been a few others i'm not remembering

>>376674447
Well, the kraken in Sastasha hard does actually have rear and flank positionals. But most of the time in newer content enemies with the full circle around them have no positionals. Like the first boss in Dun Scaith for example.

Frontlines (24v24v24) is pretty easy, just jump in and you will learn how to not die and how to annoy your enemies as you play it. Worked for me, at least.

We don't know and the fucks over and SE won't give us information. I hope this severely backfires on them so that if they survive the fuck up they'll learn their fucking lesson on being cunts. This is not how you build up hype in a genre that has everything going against it due to shit devs in other games.

>Is PvP difficult?
Depends on how you play.
If you're the kind of guy who optimizes, learns his shit and otherwise tries his best, then you'll do fine in PvP. It's all a matter of learning that it's not PvE.

If you're the kind of faggot that goes "my sub, my playstyle" and sits around not performing/ignoring basic job functions then PvP will suck.

pvpaissa.com and the Team Tryhard discord have lots of information and resources for PvP if you're interested.

They do their work. Its just that /xivg/ has an unnaturally high amount of people who dodge bans. Nearly every avatar there does it sadly.

>>376665714
I wish they would hurry up and put out a video or a stream detailing the combat changes. I refuse to preorder until they actually give me some information. WoW expansions were in beta by now and before the expansion came out they'd update the game with all the new engine changes and talent trees and stuff.
We're a month out from launch and the only thing we've seen are the zones and some screenshots of the new abilities. The benchmark gives a bit a of a look at some of the abilities but only briefly and they aren't really focused on.

Live Letter fucking WHEN. I've been out of things to do in the game for months, and we still don't know shit about the expansion. There's genuinely nothing more I can do to "prepare" for Stormblood and now I only log once a week for khloe books.

>All jobs at 60, including crafters/gatherers

>All non-glamour MGP items collected

>Rank 20 Companion Chocobo

Really all I have left is sightseeing, fishing log, and random achievements. I'm not faulting the game for running out of shit for me to do, I've put an absurd amount of time into it. It's just crazy that we're basically a month away from the expansion and we still know dick all about any real changes. I'm not especially looking forward to repeating the same old content cycle so I at least want to know if the gameplay is going to be any better.

You can get your gear up to the requirements in less than a week. Go unlock hunts and do the daily ones at the Forgotten Knight, and unlock all your level 60 dungeons and do them at least once for the first timer bonus.

It's a problem SE has had ever since XI. Fuckers seem to almost resent the idea of letting players know anything. Hell, it was even worse in that game.

>players: ...
>SE: ...
>players: Cooooontiiiiiiinuuuuue...

And so what happened in the end is that the players had to compile years worth of logs and parses from 3rd-party tools to figure out what the fuck anything actually did.

I suspect the expansion is going to be garbage; I'm honestly content to wait until it's on sale because the only thing this game has going for it still is the story, since they've refused to enact any positive changes to the gameplay or visual fidelity (DX11 aside) since release.

It's impossible to discuss on /vg/ since the thread has been taken over by homosexual pond scum.

>>376677520
But then you've got players who know everything about what that skill does and how it should be used playing alongside players who are playing with the mindset that they'll "discover" it on their own. No one wants that situation. The players who know how their job should be played are frustrated that they aren't pulling the numbers they should be pulling, and the clueless players are frustrated people are frustrated with them.

If everything is obtuse and everyone is clueless about how to play their class everyone is happy.

It's why people nostalgia over old MMOs so hard - everyone playing those games back then were just as clueless as everyone else.

MCH is mostly cooldown management to minimize reliance on RNG. It's pretty annoying and I wish they fixed it because no class should be reliant on RNG due to their class mechanic. One of my beefs with AST. You have a 50% chance to get either the AoE or Balance on your first draw to a 60% on your second. If you get the AoE first you then have a 16.6% chance of getting a balance on your first draw to a 20% on your second. Under the assumption you redrew both times and you got your balance on the 2nd draw you would have an 8% chance of getting an AoE balance combo off in 2 draws.

I haven't fucked with probability and fractions in a while and even though it's easy in this content I feel like I messed up. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

This game could have had this if they didn't insist on totally destroying anything like that that was in 1.0

for example NMs, people whined about how they were in XI but in 1.23 they were on 5 minute respawn timers so yeah you might have to fight for a pull but it was a fun bit of competition that wasn't a big deal because you'd get another chance

Also they totally homogenized crafted gear and the material system. That was a huge part of the game for me, trying to craft and meld gear with ridiculous stats. It was a high risk/effort-high reward thing. There's nothing like that in this game now

Make healing matter and not have everything be about maximizing DPS on every single fucking class. Like holy shit it's so obnoxious. Stance dancing is not fun.

DRK is all about harnessing the darkness, WAR is about murdering zoo animals and becoming a rage demon. The fuck is PLD even doing?

Crystal sands is one of the easiest steps though. Especially now that they've nerfed it.

>>376679713
That's because the job is literally called "Knight" in japanese (ナイト - naito). They changed it to Paladin in localization because lol who knows??? I mean it's not like the Knight job has existed in the series since fucking FF1 or anything.

>>376679713
they'll probably leave paladin as it is because its just a knight in JP and hopefully release an actual holy class down the like such as templar or cleric.

Because it was Paladin in FFXI. The problem is that in FFXI, they were actually knights serving a not!Catholic church.

Probably because Knight sounds too generic to a western audience who's used to DnD Paladins. It was a dumb decision though because like you said, Knight has been a thing since FF1 and I'd say 90% of the people playing XIV don't even know what DnD is, let alone played a MMO before.

i spent 16 years playing EQ. If you were content being a tier of raiding below the top end, it was a genuinely great experience.

And just imagine, not only will there be standard NPCs selling NQ weapons made from common materials for a handful of gil that outclass that soul-infused-never-seen-in-the-world-before relic, when the new relic quest becomes available you'll be allowed to trade in your current one to receive five of the ten Bear Ass +3s you'd have to farm from SB FATEs to complete the initial step of the new weapon.

>>376681136
Well obviously nothing made in Eorzea could compete with Glorious Doman Steel Folded Over 1000 Times

>>376681038
Its really sad that raid tiers get outdated so quickly in XIV. I understand Coil being pointless once HW drops, but Gordias should not have been pointless once Midas dropped, and the same goes for Creator. I imagine that even in EQ you were still finding a use for Kunark content while everyone was off grinding their VT key when Luclin dropped.

PoP a shit

true enough for that era. as the game got long in the tooth, the tiers accelerated immensely. to the point where group gear in the 20th expansion would be on par with raid gear from the 19th. the glory days of Secrets of Faydwer were great tho. 4 diverse tiers of content that were smartly balanced and many guilds did simultaneously.

Do people still do odin or behemoth?

Paladins did later become a thing in FF4 and Tactics Advance, and those jobs actually ARE Paladin in Japanese (パラディン - paradin). It's only in some games that Knight is localized as Paladin instead.

Is it a good time to get into the game now or just wait until the expansion is out? I'm also hoping they offer a boost when stormblood is out because I can't be fucked to level from 1 to max level.

>>376678145

Try Black Desert Online. It's close to what you're after.

>>376684520
wait for it, the game is pretty slow right now since everyone else is waiting too

also boosts are supposedly planned but not confirmed, to my knowledge. it's also probably going to be fucking expensive and leveling isn't that hard

If ya preorder the expac you'll get a nice set of earrings that increase your EXP while leveling. I dunno if you get them then and there but I'd say wait and then level start at early access.

Heads up at level 15 you can earn a ring by doing the dungeon tutorials that increases EXP gained till level 30 as well.

>>376684685
>also boosts are supposedly planned but not confirmed

That's what I read as well. I'm going with the assumption that when I buy the expansion when it's out, they'll give me a free boost for one character.

>and leveling isn't that hard

It's not that it's hard, I just thought it was pretty boring. Maybe it'd be more fun with a friend, but that's the impression I got when leveling a demo character.

that's true for the heavensward classes, but you'll be able to make a samurai or red mage as long as you hit level 50 at any point during stormblood's release

>>376685271

There is no way you'd get that within a month before SB. Hell, my original plan was to level all my classes to 50 and get DRG,MCH,WHM and BLM to 60. Get there Anima weapons including Paladin.

So now I've just decided to level all classes to 46 before stormblood and more than halfway done with that. I'm sitting on materials for 4 more anima weapons and know I wont finish that before SB. You should've just concentrated on 1 class to 60 and then just level up your alts to a good level 30 or 40 would've been fine.
