FFXIV Random Complaint Thread: Look forward to it

[Raldo]

The trouble with losing a tank is that tanks generally get insta-queue, so there's never any of them sitting around to automatically get thrown into your group. It just has to be freak chance that someone queues up (and has the box checked) after you've started looking for members, which could potentially take a while.

I almost always queue on WAR, and now the majority of my tomes come from Join Party in Progress dungeons. Sadly, the sheer amount of parties in progress that I run into while queuing means that I'm only making a tiny dent in the issue. I really hope dungeon roulette makes a difference. You get your duty roulette reward faster if the dungeon is partially completed!

2/3 in progress high level. 70-100 myth for under 5 minutes of work.

[Jem]

Yeah, I always tick Join In Progress and unless it's 0/X then I'll join it. I tend to stray away from 0/X runs because you tend to run into some horrendous players.

What sucks is when you get zoned in and you find out that the dungeon was going to be abandoned and they have 20 minutes left.

I can't tell if the party finder is broken or if people are stupid and don't know how to use it.

I see shouts in Mor Dhona constantly referring people to the PF yet they never show up in the list.

it seems broken sometimes

[Airenn]

Welp, just came here to ask about that and the last two posts are kinda confirming what I was wondering. I see shouts for Look to Party Finder! Open it up and see a couple but not theirs. Hit search again maybe a new one pops up. Hit search again maybe it disappears. Seems like there should be more but I only ever see 3-5.

If the party has no more slots for the job that you are currently on, it won't turn up. If you switch to a job that can be slotted into the party, it appears on the PF list. Another example of how SE seems to be forgetting that we can actually have multiple jobs.

Pudding flesh went from 6-9k a pop to FORTY GIL each. They drop from the pudding mobs in Sirius, but holy shit.

Converted some stuff today and got a wind IV materia, which was the only tier IV i got. Tried melding it a Militia Wristlets but it seems like it won't. Am i missing something as to why it won't meld to that? I have goldsmithing to 50, i have the tier IV carbonized matter so i don't get this.

[Seravi Edalborez]

Combat tier 4 materia requires i70 gear to affix.

Well i guess that is just retarded.

[Niiro]

It's on the description of the materia.

[Obsidian]

It very clearly says on the materia what the minimum item level it'll go on is.

Damn i have never noticed that before. Thanks for making me feel like an idiot.

[Eanae]

Think she was trying to keep a low profile, but got carried away with the pvp stuff to shine through!

Fuck I've known for a while but I thought you guys knew that.

Open up search criteria in the Party Finder list and select Free Role under jobs.

Ah nice, I didn't know that the party role stuck instead of resetting

They should have made turn 3 a real turn with a real boss with real drops and adjusted all BC non-weapon drops to come from T1-4 and just left weapons in T5.

It's stupid to put armor drops in T5, they're no more significant than any of the T1-4 drops, it just cockblocks certain classes from getting certain pieces and forces them to buy mytho equivalents.

ie. DRG and WAR/PLD body drop from T1, MNK body drops from T5, kind of a dick move no? There's nothing special about the T5 armor drops, they're not "better" than the other allagan pieces in the previous turns.

Agreed and the class that gets screwed the most is BRD. Right now there is no way to have your average item level on BRD be ilvl90 without beating turn 5.

Every other class can do this with Hero's/AF2

Nvm forgot about the new rings hah

But yeah I dont get turn 5 armor drops being ilvl90 they should be moved to 3 and 5 should be weapons only
