lmao yeah. I don't get whats so bad about just letting us use birds in town.

[Spider-Dan]

If they let you use your birds in town, it is exactly the same thing as letting you instantly teleport to anywhere in the game.

True story.

[Kurokikaze]

Derp.

lol people on forums mad that you can use a turbo setting on gamepad to autocraft... Where the fuck have they been? I've been doing this shit since beta. Fuck getting carpal tunnel. lol

If I have to suffer then everyone else has to suffer right?

Putting the turbo function on my TE stick to good use for this. So glad they made that little change to crafting.

I'm curious how you did this before when you had to press down each synth to select the Recipes button. (or before there even was a recipe memory)

[Kurokikaze]

Recipe last synth defaulted to the top. Do it once then spam. This is not new.

Beta: Glance over -> Select items -> Hold X -> Repeat.

I'm not trying to argue, I'm actually just curious. (I don't even have a gamepad and I don't feel like trying to get MotionJoy to work)

So you're only talking about leves? Because until this last patch, the cursor defaulted at the top of the crafting menu at "Requested Items" unless you were working on leve recipes.

[Kurokikaze]

For leves ya. If it was a regular synth I had to press down -> hold X -> Repeat.

Edit: But you're right. Now I can fully automate it and fuck all who call it botting. Haters gonna hate. lol

[Achitophel]

I can't believe people were actually defending PLing here. Hilarious.

So it works on recipes now?

Goodbye, Hasty Hand. I barely knew ye.

I find if HILARRRIOUS you expected anything less. You'd be dumb to not take advantage of the situation. Inb4 something about salvage bans.

[Kurokikaze]

No no Anthonystar, hes morally superior to us cause he doesn't power level.

There's a difference between defending something and taking advantage of something.

To clarify: If you honestly think what we've been doing for the past days is good for the game in the long run, either you weren't PLing right or should probably stick to games without levels.

I don't think it's good for the game w/ how bad it is. I'm defending it in the stance of if I wanna use my lvl 50 to help someone get 50 faster, then it's my right to do so. It's been done in XI even and multiple other games. It's fine long as it's not extreme. This just happens to be an extreme and I 100% took advantage of it.

People coming out are and screaming vile about PLing are just as bad as Christian extremists who picket Steve Job's funeral while tweeting from an IPhone. I'm betting they've done it in other MMOs if not XIV.

This is actually what I feel too.

I just assumed when people were arguing for or against PLing, they were talking about the current system, not about "PLing" in general.

[Lordender]

Would be so hilarious if they did ban people for PL'ing because it would be people they would never get back and I think they kind of know it which is why they didn't hotfix it right away.

Because of the state of the game, is why I don't think they will Ban or revert any leveling done. Even if they didn't ban, but reverted peoples work, I think some would quit, and SE doesn't wanna lose people atm.

I for one would not quit, I knew the risk I was taking.

[Alkar]

Last time not only did we have a different team working on the game but everyone was warned of the consequences. Yoshi-P didn't seem to care that much and he simply said it was going to be changed.
What's funny is that this PL system has been in place for a while, the latest patch simply increased the exp gain in general.

Exactly lol.
