Whatever happened to the whole gradual progression thing and token systems?
It's still in as far as we know, considering you can trade materia in phase 4 for darklight tokens.
Did they actually refer to DL "tokens"?
I assumed you would just trade the materia for currency and use the currency to buy whatever, seems strange to make you trade in materia for currency and use the currency to buy tokens to then trade for gear.
Pretty sure he was just extrapolating 'currency' into 'tokens'. I hope there isn't some intermediary step.
Alternative answer: the difference between the meanings of 'tokens' and 'currency' is minimal. After info gets churned through the translation machine, I wouldn't even be surprised if we found official info that used either term.
Can the English client type in JP using IME? Or need to install Japanese client? I have a friend in Japan that has a NA account, but she needs to be able to type in Japanese or English. I'm thinking she needs to purchase a NA code, but use the Japanese client?
just press ~ on your keyboard and you should type in JP
Just tell her to do whatever she normally does to type in japanese and it'll work.
I'm gonna be a dick and just ask my question w/o reading most of this thread....
Where can I actually DL the beta? I've already registered a beta key, but can't navigate the lodestone or whatever ;x Keep having problems with my password too... Sorry it's early....

Keep in mind phase 3 ends on the 15th and phase 4/retail will require a new client.
e: nvm
Gah k, Thx Kiarax Perhaps I should wait then.
Finally got it all installed, got my character from 1.0 and geez, after an hour or so this feels like what the 1.0 should have been.
I'm very impressed so far and if there's enough solo content I'll be playing for sure.
Is there a wiki type site (I dont recall seeing on db) that shows all the quests/mssions? How/where to unlock jobs, how to get minions, how to get a mount, etcetc?
I didnt really get a chance to play beta, so aside from walking out to the fields and killing random things, I never really got to explore.
Okay, I have a non-legacy 1.0 CE account, I stopped playing before the subscription fees came.
Despite not being a legacy member, will I still be able to play my original 1.0 character with all gear/progression carried over? If so, will I only be able to play on legacy servers?
Sorry if a similar question to this has been asked before but i'm confused and anxious to know.
you can transfer your character to other server, but the deadline is already past if you havent put in the transfer request already.
