FFXIV: Shillblood

My hopes and dreams of you goddamn people vanishing once the launch day arrived are already getting shattered by these garbage threads.
I get the game is so garbage it's hard to keep attention on it for more than five minutes, but christ, leave back to /vg/ already. Nobody asked for this.

The main menu and the dialogue box on the ps4 version is way too small after the patch, wtf happened? Can i make it larger?

>>380760036
> Currently, players progressing through the main story quest of FINAL FANTASY XIV: Stormblood are unable to enter instances battles due to it reaching its limit of players allowed. Due to this, players are asked to wait until a player leaves an instanced area before they are able to enter.
>While we have plenty of instances available, to prevent a heavy load on the servers, we are currently limiting the number of players that can enter at a time. If you are unable to enter an instance, we recommend waiting and trying again at a later time.

>>380760319
That's horseshit i bet it's going to be like this for days

>>380759930
It's gonna be even funnier when the hordes of RDM and SAM finish their POTD farm.

>>380760170
Why do i think this shit is so funny? Just a hundred cats standing in one spot for hours in an MMO like it's a line to a roller coaster. This is weird as fuck.

>Do a player search
>Only 40 people are in zones after the Lv60 instance

>>380760771
because it is hilarious anon. Especially when you consider that the reddit erpcats are trying to report line-cutters for griefing.

>>380760771
It's a theme park in its truest form.

>>380760771
>>380760950

This is literally the greatest shit I have ever seen in an MMO. A fucking 80 foot single file line on an American server to enter an instanced story event with no one trying to skip. Someone post a webm of this shit if it's on your server. I couldn't get a good pic because the line is so fucking long everyone doesn't render.

CAN I STILL GET INTO EARLY ACCESS OR DID I FUCK UP BY NOT PRE ORDERING JEWBLOOD

>>380761332

a shitload of us are running past the line, only erpcats and downs dragons are actually thinking their line is doing anything.

I like the line, it keeps a shitload of people from actually trying to hop on.

You don't want to play this shit.

So I am doing 50-60 POTM the dead, level 56 now on my SAM. What are these Replica armor pieces I keep getting from the Horde?

>people think a line will help
there are multiple instances of the fringes on each realm, and multiple realms on each data-center, and they ALL use the same instance server. One instance server on the whole datacenter. Unless you can organize a line across every instance of the fringes, and on every realm on your entire datacenter, good fucking luck with that line.

Why in the world would you think that a mmorpg would run well on the 1st day of expansion.
You dont need to need a fraction of your brain power to think through this common sense. The biggest fools here are you fags.

I just want to leave /v/ for a few weeks. I'm so sick of seeing this weeb garbage all over /v/. Fuck you mods for allowing an ongoing general discussion for the game when there is an entire board dedicated for that sole purpose.

odds - stay on odin \ make a rdm
evens - go to new server \ stay blm

Also, how do i even level if im only 44 without main quests, no one probably runs potd?

>>380771478
because heavensward did you newfag

>>380771554
do you hall monitor in FE Heroes threads too?

>>380771478
Legion was pretty smooth aside from that one phase quest if you picked Aszuna as starting zone.

This is more like Warlords and the Garrison bottleneck. Plus 30-60 min queues to log in.

Is there anyway to keep the gauges constantly showing even if you for example, didn't activate BOTD?

You don't always cast jolt. You cast the best/most appropriate spell available and go with the flow, because the combo doesn't reset unless dualcast falls off. It has easily the most interesting and nonlinear combo system of any dps class. Melee is satisfying but I prefer it to not overstay its welcome. Zip in, melee, zip out is enough, especially when the melee combo is just 1-2-3. The support capabilities are insane. I can switch to healslut mode with vercure and erase and heal pretty well

>>380771478

So as RDM do you cast another Jolt for the insta cast before using Verstone and Verfire or do you just use them when they're up?

>kugane night ost
fucking comfy

>>380771845
It is simpler. And strangely more fun. I am having a blast with SAM.

>>380771910
Verstone and Verfire are short casts, use them to get Dualcast back for Veraero and Verthunder

I wonder what the Japs think of this. Chocobo must be a fucking diaster to login and do raubhan quest

>>380754653

>>380771910
Why do people keep asking this? Are they literally retarded? There is no fucking reason to waste your dualcast on Verfire or Verstone.

>>380771875
>You don't always cast jolt.

I know this is common sense. If you have an idea of how the balance system works you can game the class with swiftcast and its sharp cast equivalent.

>>380771910
In a ideal scenario you would cast jolt and lets say aero and you proc stone right? You would cast stone and head right into thunder you ideally want to use dual cast on aero and thunder the rest should be casted. You can use cure to force a proc skipping jolt and you can use swift cast to bypass the cast times of thunder/aero. Try to cast jolt as little as possible with your CDs.

>>380772446
The OF are currently lynching Yoshi P. and the dev team for this awful lack of foresight.

Is there a way to transfer ownership of a house to someone else? My buddy wants to quit but I want his house.

I did it guys

>>380771910
Verfire and Stone have normal cast times, so you do Jolt -> Guranteed proc skill -> thunder or aero -> fire or stone -> thunder or aero instacast (opposite element of the first cast). At least that's what I've gathered.

Alright how the fuck do I level a class from 50-60 with no MSQ to do?

>>380773194
No, he has to relinquish the plot and you have to buy it again. If he has the house tied to an FC he can transfer it to you if you join the FC, but then you're stuck there. If you wanted to put a personal house on the plot (and there was an FC one already there) you'd have to demolish, relinquish the plot, buy it again for personal and then put the house up.

How far can I get into this game with high as fuck latency? Like 600? How much content will I miss out on? For example, in WoW, I was able to pretty much do anything but high rated PvP and mythic raiding. I could do those things but I avoided them because I wouldn't be able to perform optimally because of latency. I still carried my weight in any situation, still above the average player which seem to be retarded, so I still was able to see all the content in raids up to heroic and PvP up to 2k rating.

>Literally "come back later"

FFXIV Producer and Director Yoshida here.

I would like to explain the current congestion issue regarding instanced battle content, including the Stormblood main scenario quest “Best Served with Cold Steel,” due to the Duty Finder crashes at the start of early access.

As announced earlier, there are a huge number of players currently playing Stormblood, and as a result, the servers continue to experience a large amount of stress. For this reason, we are currently limiting the number of players that can enter instanced content so that it does not lead to major server crashes.

However, this has caused massive congestion to enter instanced content and I would like to sincerely apologize for this.

If you are unable to enter instanced battle content, we ask you to please wait and try again at a later time. We understand that this unfairly places the burden on our players, but we require more time until the issue can be resolved. We continue to work on measures to address this issue and will follow up once we have an update.

Again, we sincerely apologize for this level of congestion occurring during early access when many of our players are the most excited to play.

Everyone on the team will continue to put in our full effort to ensure an enjoyable gaming experience, and I would like to thank you for your continued support.

>>380774408

So, uh, magefags lend me a hand here:

What "Role" skills should I be taking as a RDM, aside from Swiftcast and Diversion? I only ever played melee characters.

>>380774206
Can't they slowly increase the amount people are able to enter to ensure people are going through AT ALL without risking the servers shitting themselves?

>Certain Worlds have exceeded its limit and currently are experiencing a very long queue. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but we expect these long queues to continue for an extended period.

Just what the fuck do they mean by Extended Period. Tomorrow? Next week? Rest of the expansion?

Was a limit to how many people could enter a choice they did or was it sinetgubg tgey did because limitations and all that?

>>380774946

>>380774803
unless you're keeping enemies stunned 24/7 you're not getting positionals on them solo outside of AoE casts
also there's bound to be some bosses where hugging a certain part of the boss is easiest and most effective for dealing with particular mechanics, such as with A11 and 12S, where true north will be a massive help

The Duty Finder and Instance servers were fucked up earlier, like not functioning at all. They did what they called a "temporary fix" that did fix DF, but they purposely throttled the MSQ instance while they are working on a solution for it. I don't know enough about computers or networking to know why they'd do that.

So that MSQ instance is actually working, but it only lets in a handful of people at a time on each server (or maybe in each data center). It's only going to get worse though because of its location in the quest chain as we move into the weekend.

If you think shit is bad now, wait like 1-2 hours and it will be even worse.

Nope. Instance server is datacenter wide, so Mateus shares the load with Balmung and Gilgamesh.

If you turn into a succubus on PoTD as a RDM, and cast your fire spell, dualcast procs and makes you wait an extra second before casting another one ulimately making you a slower succubus compared to any other job.
