I think it's quite high, I remember when FCs were selling Titan hard there was one bragging on the OFs about having sold over 200. That's 200 shit people going through to the next content. There's at least 3 FCs selling wins on Excalibur so the demand must be there. I suppose you could argue they're not likely to want to join normal Titan groups and would just keep buying their wins, and I'm sure you're right that on average the win only groups win more. Just highly frustrating for the competent bunch who are being held back.

I don't know.
the prices for Titan eX on Excal are pretty redic.
Well over 1.5 mil for a win.

That's crazy lol. I thought it would be cheaper than hard mode was back when it was new due to being so over geared for both fights these days. Back when hard mode was new people were doing it without even full DL, now it's almost 90s for extreme which is way over geared. The fight seems a lot faster.

The thing about Titan at least, is only one person can be carried at once. Didn't people get HM to the point where they could do 3-4 a run?

As a MNK, I would love this problem.
Instead its healer or derpgoon :/

Also Aiming tassets, what are they good for?

My group is only up to 6 kills but already 1.5 of those have gone to off-spec jobs (another SMN book to the WHM main, spear to me which started out "lol nobody else wants it" but I actually grew into). We're just dreading the day she drops another MNK/DRG/SMN weapon. Still "need" 2 bows, sword, axe, and BLM.

Fuck the devs and their irrational fear of players actually having gil in a game where money holds little value. Despite doing dailies my gil is steadily depleting from purchasing food alone.

**xopher** · 2014-01-20 13:06

Apparently a guy got a warning placed on his account for using ffxiv-app. In addition, threat of ban for using it again

**Rehn** · 2014-01-20 13:10

Wow, that's quite scary.

**Intense** · 2014-01-20 13:13

Didn't they state at some point early on in the development of 2.0 that they were open to some 3rd party apps or am I completely making that up?

**Rocl** · 2014-01-20 13:15

They were supposed to go about allowing the creation of 3rd apps by releasing the API but that hasn't happened yet.

**Gokulo** · 2014-01-20 13:22

Yeah, was also supposed to be @6 months after release, but seeing as they're silent about it for now it will probably take longer.

**Obsidian** · 2014-01-20 13:23

Pretty sure that was with regards to plug-ins developed with the API they have yet to release.

The only way for them to tell is through your own admission, like in the screenshot.

**xopher** · 2014-01-20 13:23

People talk about using App all over the OF and no one says anything to them. I think this GM made a pretty large mistake.

**Raldo** · 2014-01-20 13:27

I would love to speak with a GM just to see if they know other GM's have sticks up their asses and have hard-ons for authority, just so they can pull shit like that on people.

**Ksandra** · 2014-01-20 13:31

Makes me wonder (hope) the addon packet is coming soon which is why they are trying to crack down on outside apps to force people to use the packet.

**Ksandra** · 2014-01-20 13:31

Oh, who am I kidding, this is SE...

Go 50CUL then and mass harvest mats. My gil has only steadily gone up after I started leveling DoH jobs. 2-4k a synth on some HQ leve-items still 2-4k more than I had prior.

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-01-20 14:12

I harvest all my food, and sell off the HQ mats because I don't need them to HQ the food.

Hello all,

As you know, when joining in progress for the Crystal Tower, the system displays the progress of the raid when attempting to join runs in progress. For example, "Progress: 1/4".

However, this will be adjusted for the Crystal Tower to always show the progress as 0/1 in patch 2.15.
