Black Shroud before realizing that run aggro was a thing.

[Aldon]

Huh, I thought Black Shroud etc was new areas. All the areas in ARR are the same as XIV? Shows how long i've been out of the loop

Guess it'll be more of the same for the XIV players, all new adventure for XI olds like me

[Rocl]

The areas are almost completely redesigned, but the names etc are more or less the same. (Zahar'ak is the same as 1.0, for example)

[Pharaun]

In 1.0 it was actually challenging and fun to get all the teleports due to the horrible (maybe justified lore-wise) monsters placement.

THAT was its fucking name. That was buggin' the shit outta me.

Yeah though, fuck that place.

What's the deal with everyone worried about finding a healer for the first dungeon (Sastasha?)? Nobody can do dungeons until they reach the point in the main storyline that brings all 3 nations to Sastasha for their first dungeon run. All classes will be represented at that time.

People are just worried that everyone will want to lv Acn and some dungeons gives good xp

But at first it will be easy to do dungeons I'm sure of it

Not equally, which is the entire point the last pages have been making. Only one class can queue as a healer before level30.

Duty Finder requires a healer (CNJ, WHM, SCH) to enter.
The only pre-30 healer is CNJ.

So all you bitches with LV50 everything can switch over to CNJ for the run and get it over with. Legacy and Non-Legacy servers are pulled from to populate the LFG groups, so non-Legacy will have access to CNJs as needed if for some reason the entirety of the non-Legacy servers all decide to level Arcanist. (Which, I don't see happening on those servers. Only the Legacy servers could have that happen.)

Legacy DDs don't have to wait for queues.

I predict a 2-page non-legacy butthurt tirade.

Why the fuck would I do anything with plebes when I have the option of not doing it with plebes?

[torasu]

psh, the unwashed masses can deal with their own eternal queue problem as we legacies all ride our goobbues to the front of the line, trampling their pleb dreams underfoot

So, unrelated to the current topic, but I figure I'll ask anyway. My apologies if this is the wrong place or if it's been answered somewhere obvious.

If I want the preorder items and give no fucks about the CE physical or digital items, where do I need to go and what do I need to do if I'm a Legacy player? The whole situation surrounding this is ridiculously convoluted for something that should be a simple checkbox on the Account Management site.

Any help or insight is appreciated.

You have to preorder any of the ARR games (PS3, PC, CE etc doesn't matter which) at a retailer that's selling the game

I don't recommend doing so online though, codes must be running pretty low because lately I'm hearing a lot of reports about people not getting codes. Go to a store and make sure they give you a code.

You'd have to pre-order a new copy of the game, non-CE or CE, doesn't matter, to receive a code for early access and the pre-order items. So, pre-order from Amazon, Gamestop, or SE Online Store for the code. Either way you'll have to spend at least $30 for the code unless you can buy an extra one off of someone.

Edit: damn too slow.
