MCH is fun and most people don't care. I cleared savage raids in ''unmeta'' compositions so I know people are just sperging out. DPS itself was rarely a problem, mechanics were the main problem. Fight took 2 minutes longer? Whatever.

>>181605970
Second for I'd rather be on Balmung than deal with Omega 90ks and 1800 queue in the evening and spending time from 6 pm to midnight staring at the queue, logging in for 5 minutes, getting a 90k, then repeating the process until I get tired and go to bed.

How can you speak for most people when it's looking to remain the least played job.
And You're full of shit if you're saying you cleared A3S with a MCH in your party.

>>181605898
I'm a new player legitimately asking. Even if I just want to play what is considered a low tier job, is all content still possible or will people just refuse to even try it with me because we will almost certainly fail.

I'm not saying you shouldn't be concerned if your favorite job is clearly outclassed, just want to know if I can freely choose my job without worrying about possibly having to get another one to level 70 just so people even let me try the toughest content.

Is something changing in this maintenance?

Khloe journal has a different expire date, you can see at the top of the journal. You actually have more than a week to finish your current.

>>181606141
My apologies. Then yes it's just bigger numbers from one job to another... For the most part anyways. As far as raid progression goes when savage comes out. It's anybody's game.

But if you join a good FC you should at least be fine as long as it's Creator tier (the last HW raid) and not Gordias tier (the first HW raid). I wouldn't expect exclusion at least

Idyllshire, the quest is called "Keeping up with the Aliapohs" then you go and get your special stickerbook from her.

>>181606141
You can play any job you like and as long as you try to do well you'll be able to do all content. Only tryhard savage raiding groups might pass you over for a flavor of the month job.

Otherwise you can play anything and get everything done.

>>181606313

Than we'll go back to a system of exclusion and watch as statics and friendships collapse on each other again.

Thankfully I'm in the safety of my hug box on a server far removed from drama so I'm not worried about anything.

>>181606113
No, not a3s and btw a3s was simply overtuned so I don't know why people bring it up, I didn't play the game back then, I was talking about a9s-12s. It's fun for me, I never said it's fun for most people, I don't particularly care what other people find fun. I think it's least played because it's very punishing and you can lose a lot of dps if you fuck up. For example, if you don't pay attention and fuck up the heat gauge, it's a big loss.

>>181606262
I don't care what you think. I'm speaking from experience, I cleared the above savage raids in PF and I know what I'm talking about. My first a11s clear had a PLD, a drunk MCH and a lala AST that was wearing nothing but a hat and underwear. I played drk. So stick to your statics and keep you cancer out.

a9s-a12s were jokes as an apology for Gordias so that translates to jack shit. Clear anything in a1s-a4s pre-Echo?

Thanks for framing the fact that you're inexperienced m8ty
A9S through A12s were the easiest of the trio. Shit A9S and A10S were literal first day pug tier. MCH themselves were super buffed a full raid tier BEFORE that.

>overtuned
I mean if you're going to try and slide the goalposts for content you never experienced there are plenty of other metrics for example
A4S, A5S, A8S

Hey everyone! Just doing a quick pop in to remind everyone if you play a different in game gender from your real life gender you need to kill yourself (that is still male for trannies).

Not trying to come across angry just stating a simple fact. Your virtual girl is not real and will not date you. "But I want something sexy to stare at!!" really? Who is looking at their characters ass while playing?

Piss poor excuse my friend. You should be looking at the world around you. Anyways see you guys in Eorzea!

I have people in my FC that have been around since 1.0 and I'm saying what they told me. Simply put, you're exaggerating. All content in this game is perfectly clearable with various compositions and pointing out raids that were overtuned numbers wise doesn't disprove that. Speaking of MCH, a few potency buffs and you'll be begging for it in pf. Also, RDM and SAM will get nerfed. I have nothing against you insisting on meta, I do have plenty against that attitude spreading to shitters in PF who insist on it and then wipe on the first few mechanics.

RDM or DRK, for a person who didn't play since a long time?

I wish Excalibur had any kind of roleplay scene. ;w;

It isn't worth transferring to Mateus since I like how the community is FC-centric and the raiding statics seem like they're usually made of cool people so you have options, but, god damn, it's tempting.

That's actually a great thing because everything was fucking awful back then. You missed nothing except months of wipes to a fifteen foot tall pepsiman

Oh, and bad encounter mechanics abuse literally breaking the game

MCH was born worst of the worst, got buffed a ton, and is now nerfed to shit again for some reason. Less support should translate to more damage but with these darts its a dart throw

Problem is there needs to obviously be a limit. It's anoying how they acknowledged last week that the new worlds have already reached the same population as the old worlds but rather than apply restrictions they're just like "ayy lmao, we need MORE"

Let it all out. Share your reasons.

>>181607635
He's not lying. The raids you're used to were basically a victory lap for putting up with Alexander's god awful everything. It will probably remain in ezmode for the forseable future, until the ultra super hard whatever releases, which will be intentionally infuriating.

As it tands, BRD deals more damage and supports better than MCH, and MCH is reportedly parsing the lowest of all DPS. They over-nerfed it. As someone who leveled it twice, I can safely say, you're better off joining a raid as a tank (Which is a shoe-in) and eventually grabbing a DPS slot when they fix MCH's issues

I picked Zalera because it was open. My character ended up being too tall. Abandoned the server, remade my character on Goblin because I picked randomly and I was a dipshit playing the trial. Good call, seeing as Zalera is shitter central. Left Goblin because raiding on it was shit, very difficult to part ways with my dear friends after a few years together. Went to Sargatanas to raid, was considerably more successful for raiding. Staying because it's comfy and healthy.

black desert is fun until you get awakening on your main class then it like "well i can grind this or grind...everything else" it's very korean in that it's unstructured as shit and you can basically become a merchant trader who ever fights or you can grind the same 10 mobs in a circle for days on end for 2% exp. It's fun but all the grinding kills my soul. I also found out the class i liked was shit for grinding unless i was playing with friends, and those guys were never on anyway.

Also forgot one detail, steam is the least played platform for xiv. Most people buy regular pc version and console version being the most popular in japan.

This is why early player driven census show active playerbases of 150-200k+ on the 1st weeks after patches being released even though steam only shows 22k active players as peak.

The world is currently full.

Godspeed my friend. SE Support sucks hard. Just have patience and you *should* get it resolved.

Also, word to the wise: use the live chat support instead of the phone support. They never answer the phones and effectively place you on a hold-transfer loop infinitely until you get disconnected. With their live chat they actually have a queue number, at least.

No, you're not wrong with that point you've only just made now, but you are wrong with the point you've been making the entire rest of the time.

As a PLD anything I should really change on my UI? I'm trying to keep everything to just 1-5 right now.

The top left bars are really just for click access.

Not even worth doing anymore.

With PvP now uselss, what will become the next most efficient way for DPS to level 60-70?

What the fuck do I do with Catastrophe's tentacles? Stand inside the circles and look at them? That seems to work around 50% of the time and I'm not sure if that's really it.

>>181610903
indom?

>>181611315
Bot fates like before

>>181611315
