FFXIV Random Complaint Thread: Look forward to it

[fren.]

Yea, 40 minute wait to form party. Booted instantly as we entered. Fuck that.

[Seravi Edalborez]

at least we got DRG Body/Maiming Earring in T1 for shits and giggles first.

Fucking everything I want is in turn 1 (including DRG drops), and we just get repeat DRG drops. This gaaaaame.

[Ratatapa]

Giant 90k in all instances again

Time to ask ym static to stop doing coil on mondays

Allagan Round Shield, Heavy Allagan Gauntlets, and Allagan Bracelet of Fending straight up don't exist. Maiming bodies and BRD earrings back-to-back weeks just to throw salt in the wound.

5th job, 4th job, 2nd job is where all those fending drops will go when they eventually drop for my group next week.

[Obsidian]

If this were a survey I would be filling in Strongly Disagree so hard my pencil would break.

We've had a pretty even distribution of drops but we've never seen Fending hands/wrist, only one shield (on our first clear, and the tank it belongs to hasn't logged in in over a month), only one neck, one Striking belt, I think only one Striking hand, and we got our first Maiming ring tonight. Fending bodies and feet are going to tertiary jobs and Fending legs probably will too unless we end up not needing the accuracy from Valor in 2.2 and I stop passing them to other people.

[Serenseven]

from what i gather it's the whole Primals Data Center blowing up

(from being too good, obvi)

It does that every Monday now, even when there's not a maintenance rush.

[Niiro]

Turn 1: 2 bracelets.

Turn 2: 2 necklaces.

Thanks, Obama.

Focus target disappearing when mobs jumping, why

The fix can't come soon enough.

Tonight's spoils:
T1: Drg body, maiming earrings
T2: Drg hands, casting hands
T4: Brd neck (only thing going to a primary), Brd body
T5: Tomorrow, fuck taking risks with that loot

[Niiro]

Well....getting fixed "in a future patch"..........at least.

[Deadgye]

Probably won't be doing turns 1-4 until thursday or saturday, but last weeks drops were 5 accessories and a third pair of tank feet. All I could say was "... I guess at least we didn't get 6 accessories again."

[Hiroishime]

Turn 5 drops MNK weapon back to back for 3 times

However it didnt bother us much becuase turn 4 gaves us 2x casting legs back to back this week and last week and PLD body from turn 1 yest.

Got home late and didn't have time to do my low DFR because of server maint.

Decided to ride it out and wait until servers came back on. Got Brayflox. Tank kept marking pulls with just x and 3, I figured he was trolling so I just fucked around and attacked whatever. He got mad at me and told me to "level a tank if u dont wanna listen 2 marks" (I have both tanks at 50, thank you). Apparently he wanted me to hit the x first, so I started overriding his x marks with a 1 mark. The party booted me right before Aitar.

Fuck this goddamn motherfucking fuck ass game and its shitface dickfuck cockass players. I just wanted my exp so I can to go to bed.

I didn't play XIV since launch, tried again yesterday with a new char and noticed that in spite of the tutorial showing pics and instruction about the main menu (which was positioned in the lower right corner of the screen) there's nothing left there anymore, just an icon that says how much gil you have.
Any way to make that menu appear again?

Also, I found the menu where you can select the "target cycling" filters, but I remember there was a command from the gamepad to switch between those filters. I couldn't find it again yesterday though, could anybody remind me the combination to swap between target cycling filters?

Yeah, they redid the UI a few weeks ago and people have been vocal about not liking the new version. Too condensed, they say. I don't mind it.

Also, the command on a controller is L1/LB+(button) to change filters. I wish I could set it to default, though. I always change my tab to Enemy when engaging, but once a fight is over it always goes back to Other. Annoying for dungeons where I don't want to tab through people.

[Sechs]

Ah so the menu is just gone forever, I see.
They didn't fix the tutorials though. People could get pretty confused when the tutorials tell you to do something in a certain menu and then that menu doesn't exist even if it gets showed to you in the tutorial images lol

[Lyall]

That's hilarious and so very SE.

[Ayer]

I believe that menu is for KB+M, and if you use a controller, it just defaults to the cross-bar menu. They probably were dumb and didn't think to make two sets of tutorial images for KB+M versus controller.

Somehow I can't even log into the lodestone because it says my account has no active characters, despite 1) paying for the month and 2) it being set on automated billing anyways.
