For some reason it didn't click with me back then, but I'd love to try it again. I no longer have my PSP so I'll see what I can do. There's probably a decent emulator I can use, though I always have a hard time playing a game on emulator on PC since I have plenty of other games available once I get home it feels a bit silly and somehow end up dropping them.

>Nexon FFXI
>Unreal 4
>Doesn't use any assets from the actual XI
So outside of having an existing lore built and concept designs I don't really see the benefit of them making a new game attached to the same name of a 14 year old game.

>>140236674
Hey you can call nostalgia on it but "new and improved". Kind of how Tree of Savior got all it's momentum out of being "a spiritual successor to Ragnarok Online".

I had no idea it was Unreal 4 and used no assets from XI, though. That's... Interesting...?

Jesus christ, fuck this +++ fight. Piece of shit has such high resistances.

>>140231467
Though those chants made no sense either. Just look at this stunning prose:
>Blessing breeze, blow in energy! Cure3!
>Share lives with all things in nature.... Regen!
>Effortless water, break your silence, attack! Ice4!
>Know, live, become a frog! Frog!
>Land of all lives, suppress all rebels! Don't Move!
>Revenge with dark-evil spell! Demi!
>Black sheep of evil times, cover our light! Demi2!
>Nihilistic sky, inhale magic power...Bizen Boat!
>Life is short...Bury! Steady Sword!
>Curses from all directions! Blastar Punch!
Good old days, not even once.

>>140237085
I was honestly expecting them just to make a version of FFXI using all of the existing PS2-era assets and effects w/ wallet-draining simplified phone-friendly gameplay.

Hey guys, are any of the characters from the FF7 or FF12 Events worth a slot? As well as dumping Mythril for SSBs?

Hate stone heart

>>140249974
Ha, Level 5 Death can go fuck itself.

>>140256024
Balthier, Vaan, and Basch are all really good. Basch can use Draw Fire/Retaliate in case you don't have Gilgamesh. Ashe is a not-terrible BM, and Penelo's a good WM. Zack is the only one that's all that good in the VII event, though Yuffie has her uses.

>>140256930
Because they can't just use Lv3 Death instead?

>>140256024

There'll be a BSB event in a month or so with banners full of great shit, so if I were you I'd save that mythril until then. Try getting as much max stamina as you can until then, because you'll want to run those dungeons as much as possible as they shit orbs and xp.

>>140256936
Right now I'm using Maria as my BM and Yuna as my WM. Would Ashe be better then Maria?

>>140257072
They wouldn't use either anymore. Level 3 or level 5 death would mean instant ko on everyone who maxed out everyone (whether its 50,65 or 99), which is now common

>>140257320

Ashe has a better skillset, better stats and XII synergy actually exists, unlike II, so yes. You'd honestly be better off just getting Terra, though.

>>140257320
Maria kinda sucks, so I'd say yes unless you have a relic for her. It's not that much of a difference though, so you can keep Maria if you like.
This weekend is actually a great opportunity to level new characters, these orbfest dungeons give out lots of experience on top of their other rewards.

>>140257440
>Anymore
Have they ever used any at all? I was replying to the anon because his post seemed to imply 99 is some magical indivisible number, but I don't think they've ever actually used it or would.

They could easily make it single-target but KO'ing and raising in this game is seen like an unfathomable act of heresy so they still wouldn't add it, I think.

>>140257656
>>140257675
Thanks for the help guys. At the moment I'm sort of lost on what skills I should give to characters so I can win the harder dungeons.

Apparently from what people have told me on other sites and streams I've gotten some good SSBs? I have Gilgaemeshes Sword, Sentinals Grimoire, Lightnings Gun and something else I forget.

Not sure if I should use them or if they're any good

>>140257878
According to the RK strategy site, Deathgaze could use Lvl5 Death. Never actually saw him use it though.

>>140258039
>I have Gilgaemeshes Sword, Sentinals Grimoire, Lightnings Gun and something else I forget.
>Not sure if I should use them or if they're any good
You're fucking right they're good, especially Sentinel's Grimoire. Your top priority should be getting Tyro (or Cloud) to level 65 and getting his Memory Crystal 2 from the Hall of Rites, so that you can get the Record Materia that starts you off with a full SB bar.

I'd also recommend getting Gilgamesh from the Hall of Rites ASAP if you don't have him so that you can use that SSB. Perhaps Lightning too, if you can't wait a bit over a month for her next event.

>>140258039

>Sentinel's

lel, people shit all over themselves trying to get that. It's a seriously great SB that boosts your DEF and RES on top of whatever other defensive buffs you have. Craft some breakdowns and you're good to go forever.

I don't remember what Girugamesh's SB does, but he's a solid as fuck character so you're also good to go there. Slap a draw fire + retaliate on him and go to town.

>Cloud's RM4 is a 30% damage boost when wielding a sword
Hoo boy.

>>140258530
>I don't remember what Girugamesh's SB does, but he's a solid as fuck character so you're also good to go there
3 AoE hits + Heavy Regen on your party. I got it myself at SSBfest. The damage isn't all that amazing, but the Heavy Regen is extremely useful.

>>140256361
I meant Matsuno actually

>>140259367

>>140259623

>>140263121
Cloud is still the first one to get the new tier of SB though. Not that I get why people make such a big deal about Cloud getting all the new toys first when there are plenty of better characters and his shit always ends up being on the weaker end of the spectrum because he's first.

>>140264661
we would have to reuse special abilities for that, we're running out of cool stuff for main characters

>>140259736
In newer FFs and some other SE titles the English script tends to be superior to the original. FFXII, WotL, TOLUCT, and FFXIV are the prime examples.

>>140264771
Come on man, we still haven't used most characters' final limit breaks! RK can't last THAT much longer, can it?
Let's break out our Blitz Aces and our Riot Blades and our Omnislashes and our Lion Hearts, who cares when we have no more room to go?

How often do you just hit optimize and let the game set you up with RS stuff?

>>140266382
Always, though for more complicated battles I swap things around afterwards.

when is global getting god tier pixel damage numbers instead of vectorized shit

>>140266464
Never because it re-equips all default SBs, gives you nonsensical RMs and tends to equip the wrong stuff on the wrong guys. Fixing it is so much of a hassle it isn't worth the effort.

Lifesiphon-type attack for mages when?

>>140267808
I don't get it, "fixing it" shouldn't take any more effort than just equipping all that stuff yourself, since you'll still have to do that anyway. The only real issue for me is the Default SBs being equipped, since it doesn't replace any RMs or abilities when the character has one equipped.

New guy here, managed to get Basch and Vaan thanks to roaming OP. My melees are yuffie, balthier and Cloud. With ashe hitting weaknesses for completion and penelo has cure and blindna. I read that Basch is really good but is that with an SSB weapon? His basic soul break seems good to use when a boss rolls around.

Also I beat that mission somewhat easily thanks to XII synergy, are the elite ones much harder? I've realized the difference in 5 or 10 on a difficultly score could mean a boss has 2k more hp or 20k more hp

>>140269020
Basch is good even without an SB, Knights are great and he can Draw Fire/Retaliate which is incredibly useful for new players. His default SB honestly isn't worth using like almost every other one, it has a long cast time and the buff is barely noticeable.
And the only way to find out about those Elite dungeons is to try it yourself.

>anywhere near being as good as or worse than XIII
are you okay anon?

>>140269391
Well, Japan has seen an increase in +MAG all SBs which should come to us soon and just got its first 2-hit BM skill, so there might be hope.

Anyone else still playing this game with mage parties? The VII event was still doable, but rather hard, but it feelslike the bosses are gaining a ton of RES every week. My lack of VII synergy probably didn't help.

Also I can make retaliate but I haven't seem to have gotten any Holy Orbs for draw fire. Any good maps for those? Or should I wait for a holy focused daily

>>140268910
That's my point. Optimize doesn't make anything faster - I still have to go through everything manually except now I also need to unequip shit SBs. The RM part is annoying because if I have a character with Pride of the Red Wings I presumably want them to use a sword instead of a shitty knife because the character above them got assigned the last sword for being further up in the party. The only thing optimize is useful for is dailies.

Pretty much every FF game.
>Dude what if we made a character who's literally just a random girl off the street with no important qualities
Large chunk of characters are similar.

Tactics.
>Dude what if we we had no overworld and all travel was handled by a menu or floating teleport crystals
Entire world is connected.

Everything else I'll give you. Though you forgot that there are very few non-magic abilities in the game and IZJS's class balancing is horrible.

>>140273024
I also managed to hone Saint's Cross, Theif Raid, Multi Break, and Doppelblade up the moment I got them. And managed to hone Flare and Meteor to R2 as well (though those I had longer than Full Break).

What's the best all around girls only party? Is it even viable?

>>140275450
anything can be made viable with gems, kupo

>>140275450
If you have access to whatever soulbreaks...
Agrias (just amazing)
Y'shtola (SS2)
Rikku (Thief's Raid, even at 4 hits it's good)
Tifa (multi-hit SBs)
Faris (support)

is probably pretty solid. Take shout as your RW and just imagine Ramza as your self insert as you cheer the waifu squad on

>>140275450
Celes, Agrias, Y'shtola (assuming SS2), Lightning, Yuffie (once she gets her MC2). All the attackers get self healing, you get to use three of the best 5* abilities (Saint Cross, Thief's Revenge and Full Charge) and between those characters, you have a nice mix of utility. Shout for RW obviously.

Has anyone met those mandragora enemies in Vossler's stage yet?

>>140276335
Oh right, forgot Faris. Replace Celes with her.

>>140276508
And I forgot Lightning, replace Tifa with her.
We'll have to agree to disagree over the Rikku/Yuffie thing. I like Rikku's skill set more, but I'll admit Yuffie with headband would be quite useful.

>>140276338
Sadly no, I had around 12 runs through the stages and didn´t met them once.

I've been using exclusively female parties for as long as I can remember. Its definitely viable, I've cleared all the ultimates and nightmare dungeons so far.

So what IS an Orbfest? I wasn't playing around the time the first one happened.

>>140276338
been farming them since yesterday and finally ran into three of them this morning

>>140278530
lots of exp from enemies generally 100-200k per fight. enemies always drop orbs 100% and cactuars drop greater orbs and gigantuars always drop major orbs as well as gil

>>140278530
As close to sex as you're going to get

>>140279006
Is it something a relative beginner can do?

>>140279371
you can level up your characters with orbfest and take on the + difficulty

>>140279371
as someone who started shortly before the first one, yes.
The enemies are much weaker in comparison to the dailys and thanks to the huge exp gain you will be able to level up quick enough to tackle the + difficulty.

Neat. I was able to do the hard mode for today's gil daily but I had to restart a few times since those orb guys would just smash anyone they decided to actually attack. Or they'd blind my melees. Otherwise it wasn't that bad, didn't even use my roaming warrior because I forgot about it

A good idea is getting hold of Draw Fire and giving it a hone for four uses.
Thing is a lifesaver for some of the hard stuff, though it doesn't stop AoEs and dickass skills.

I have an almost all girl party that I wreck

Its certainly viable, and there's not really a "best" party necessarily, you kind of have to build around what you pull and make it work as best you can. We call it qt keeper and its a fun thing a few of us here do. Speaking of which, its a good time to repost my qt keeper banner ratings:

BSBF banners - highly subjective, likely to change
Banner 1: 5/10
Banner 2: 11/10 - if this banner is unchanged its worth every mythril you have
Banner 3: 5/10
Banner 4: 4/10 - recommend only if you need wall
Banner 5: 9/10 - again if unchanged all mythril left and gathered post-phase2 would go

>>140281869
on the topic of RW, Clouds BSB will make a complete joke of the first two stages and can easily give you the clear speed/dmg you still lack.

Is this in order of what is coming? Cause, if so, fuck. I was hoping to build more mythril for Edea's banner for Rinoa stuff.
>Desch
That's a III banner, right? I was wanting to use Refia, so I'm hoping for a good pull here.
About when is BSBF coming for us again?

>>140283295
Not sure what BSB is yet, is that the one where he rides the AC motorcycle like a retard? Also i completely missed the friendcode list in the pastebin so I'll add a bunch of you

>>140283691
Rinoa's dress sucks. You're better off saving for her BSB if you want to pull for her.

>>140283549
The numbers don't always tell the whole story. Kuja 2 has 3 qt relics 4 if you count kuja :^) to 2 male relics, and 2 of the qt relics are SSB (beatrix and garnet) with the third being eiko's golem flute - all of these are really high quality relics.

>>140283691
It is in order. The BSB fest at the bottom will likely fall somewhere in between but we don't know where yet (although more than likely after serah somewhere). And yes desch is a III banner, and refia's relic is pretty damn good.

>>140283753
yes, that´s the one. While the animation takes forever the burst aoe command you get is just too good to not use it.

>tfw have to wait until Yda for my next pull

God save me

>>140271645
Perhaps it would help if you knew that the original director for XII had a nervous breakdown, quit and had to be replaced halfway through the game.

Is Terra an "unlock when you can" like how Gilgamesh is? I have one more soul left and 4 crystals each of MC/MC2. Will probably hold out longer until the end of BSBfest to spend the MC crystals.

>>140286516
She's the best BM, for what that's worth. She's nowhere near as high priority as Gilgamesh, though.

>>140283954
Still better than her base SB, but wasn't her weapon available on the same banner or was that Seifer's?

>>140284124
Well, here's hoping mythril flows well so I can save up for it.

>>140284124
What are Kuha's abilities anyway?

>>140287819

I'm in Ch. 2 right before the Leblanc break-in sitting at 37%

Hey guys. I'm not sure if this is the wrong thread to ask this question in, but I was recently trying to install Final Fantasy XI to get into the private server Supernova, but for some reason, it doesn't seem to work. The site that says whether or not the server is down also doesn't seem to work. Does anyone have any information on this, or could anyone tell me of a better private server out there? Is it just better to suck it up and reactivate my account at this point if all I want to do is run through the storylines?

>>140283117
What is the trick to getting started with this? I've wanted to do it for a while but I've always been too shit to try, falling back on at least cloud/gilgamesh and tyro, every time. Wat do? I want to use qt314s

>>140307751
Definitely do the retail FFXI if you want to run through storylines. AFAIK no private servers even have all the expansion stories active, and none of them have trust (which actually lets you play through them solo)

Since it was fixed so it no longer equips stupid shared SBs even if they are much weaker than another synergy weapon and doesn't remove any abilities/RM I use it all the time. Of course, things above 99 I fix abilities and RM manually but I normally don't even have to touch gear, which is the worst offender.

Unlike this stubborn faggot here: >>140271434
I realize that entering EACH character to weapon and then reorganizing gear for ATK/MAG/MND and going to EACH one on armor and organizing for DEF/MAG/MND and then the same shit for accessories takes farm more time than changing 5 fucking materias that I probably have on Favorite and show on top of my list.

Also it's not a mystery what RM they'll autoslot: They seem to equip the latest that particular character unlocked. For example Devotion for Vivi, Impetuous Youth on Eiko or Paladin's Devotion for Paladin Cecil.

Ramza with banish blade to get rid of haste and boost for boosting the others. Also, Ace Striker+Tailwind for heals.

Cloud because he's one of my 2 level 80 characters. armor break and tempo flurry. Crystal Sword equipped.

Sephiroth using lifesiphon+black materia on Rufus. And retaliate.

Garnet was basically just healing when necessary, used her divine protection for heavy regen spam,which saved a lot of healing. Until he decided to mako canon me twice in a row.

What I really don't get about the grammatical change in Spanish is that it alleviates some potential confusion, so it was an alright change, but the exact same "issue" exists on English, which is untouched.

White Orb (now White magic orb)
Holy Orb

Black Orb (now Black magic orb)
Dark Orb

Seems unnecessary to me but I can see WHY make the subtle change for clarity, might as well be safe, but, again, it exists in English and went unchanged.

Is everything you don't like screamo?

Oh please. Now you're just baiting. It is one of the best final fantasy songs of all time.

>>140335179
Babby's first final fantasy delusion at it's finest.

Let me guess you only listen to chip tunes, mr. hipster? You can't even say why it's bad, you simply hate Sephiroth fans.

>>140294959
Good question. I did 100% completion back when it first came out, but can't even finish the HD version because everything about it annoys the fuck out of me. The ear cancer music doesn't help.

I don't have to explain to nostalgia fags who can't take off rose tinted goggles.

>tfw constantly getting 2-3 player commendations a run

I think I might actually be good at tanking, in all my long years of playing MMOs I've never really given it a shot

>>140338610
I've tanked in every MMO I've played. Let me tell you. That's the secret. Tanking is easy. But outsiders think it's hard.

>>140338610
inb4 wrong general.
When I healed with my White Mage I mostly got like half of the recommendations, but didn't care really. Aren't they just for the mount and titles?

>>140338610
XIV? Get used to it. You can be a bad tank and still get commendations. Healers as well but it seems tanks get more. If you get bored of tanking, level 52+ PLD is a lot more fun and so is WAR 30+. Not too sure on DRK though.

>>140338610
As someone who used to play and mained WHM, finding a good tank was so nice.
Shame for how rare tanks are that few of them are good.

>>140339675
and a crown

>>140339853
good tanks aren't rare. they simply do not make themselves publicly accessible.

>>140339675
Title, minion, mounts, crown and robe. Of course achievements tied to each. Not in that particular order.

>>140340721
>tank role is so bad people have to be bribed into playing it

yikes senpai

>>140341018
It's not a tank only reward, just most people vote the tank as the MVP of the dungeon run. There are Tank only rewards, but that's because a lot of people hate tanking for randoms in dungeons. People enjoy tanking, but not when the rest of the party is retarded.

>>140341325
I see. I never play MMO's long since my friends don't like them. They offer very little to the "solo" player.
