    Only got about 20-30 minutes to play during lunch, but even on my now-aging 5850, this game is stunning. Super smooth, super fluid. The music, environmental and sound effects are all outstanding.

    When I first loaded it up, the controller help window showed that "A" was confirm and "B" was back, but in the config I was set to "JP Standard" with the two buttons reversed and had to change that to "Global Standard" to get it set back correctly. It was a bit confusing at first but not difficult to resolve.

    Game is pretty amazing. For someone who only played 1.0 beta, two weeks of 1.0, then subbed long enough to get legacy, but didn't actually play....

    It doesn't even compare. One was horrible, this is pretty spiffy.

    If you're playing Archer, you'll probably want some Marauder and Pugilist skills anyway. Start wherever works for you.

    This, plus the starting city does not actually mean anything unlike XI. You can join a Grand Company (like Nationality in XI) of your choosing. So, start in whatever city is associated with the class you want to play and then join the GC of whichever nation you like the most.

    OK thanks all. Gonna go ahead and start Pug so I can be with my group of friends in Uldah then switch over to Archer later on if I can. :D

    Really wish there was an option to have the old side-list menu.

    Having to access everything via the hotbar and a bunch of disembodied windows feels awkward.

    Hmmm, the only real thing that's annoyed me so far is the Key Item window always resets to its default position.

    anyone playing on PS3 figure out how to use the hotbar commands using the keyboard? i'm slowly getting acclimated to the whole interface/control scheme but that's the one thing i haven't worked out yet.

    Casting Blizzard gives you the buff Umbral Ice. While under Umbral Ice, your MP regeneration speed is increased. It also lowers the damage and MP cost of Fire. If you cast Fire while under Umbral Ice, it will be removed.
    Casting Fire gives you the buff Astral Fire. While under Astral Fire, your MP regeneration stops completely. However, your Fire will do more damage on subsequent casts but with an increase in MP cost. It also lowers Blizzard MP cost at the expense of damage. (Not sure if casting Blizzard will remove Astral Fire, think it does though.)

    Transpose swaps one buff for the other. Umbral Ice to Astral Fire, and Astral Fire to Umbral Ice.

    Basically, cast Fire for Astral Fire and continue to do so until low MP. Use Transpose to swap Astral Fire to Umbral Ice to regain your MP (while continuing to cast Blizzard to keep the buff up). When MP is good, Transpose back to Astral Fire and Fire away. Rinse and repeat.

    Personally I start with Blizzard first for the low MP cost and to inflict heavy status. Then go from there.
