FFXIV Random Complaint Thread: Look forward to it

Seriously only those 2 systems can drag out content? I can think up a fuckload more and so can you.

[OWS_Tonx]

I'm sayin' that's what they use, not that it's the only way. Honestly, the system now doesn't bother me too much. I admit I did get pissed farming a cumulative 20 somethin hours for my atma of the goat at the time, but it hasn't been enough for me to just stop playin

I just want to point out, before ex primal were introduces the only reasons why I would log in would be to cap myths and do the coils. After that I didn't go in til reset. By eliminating lockouts and RNG, the game will become boring and have the bulk of the people log in after reset. To be honest, people just do not have the patience anymore. They want things now. I admit I do too, but I also like the feeling of finally getting the item I was after.

I would say that wave shield and tidal wave shield would use same slot

No pic but just had a run where both whm wave and tidal shields dropped in the same pool.

[Shenrien]

Totally credible.

[Obsidian]

Totally credible.

This is irony in the extreme.

[timboly]

Totally credible.

Ok Inga, that is rich coming from you.

Your ass must be so chapped right now, lel. I'll spit on it next time.

In an hour you can do up words of 12 dungeons.

An hour for 12 dungeons? Surely you are talking about 2flox runs where you stop after 2nd boss .... but how many casuals do you know that can knock out a 5 min run? Not very likely. Even if a well-geard BLM logs on to do a few, it will take them at LEAST 10 mins to get a group together, and then will take 7-8 mins to finish 2/3rds of a dungeon (assuming everyone in the group knows what they are doing). So you are looking at MAYBE 7 2flox speeds for the 1st hour.

I'd never found out about the Override Program in T4 before. With 15% buff, I found that out in DF.

Surprise.

[Baelfael]

Reading is hard.

While the rate at which shields appear will be higher, let me reiterate that the drop tables for weapons and shields are separate, and these changes will have no effect on the drop rate for weapons.

What server have you been on? Excalibur since 2.0 has been monday/tuesday 'do coil/cap myth' and since 2.1 add primals and log out till reset. The difference in the PF of a monday/tuesday compared to the rest of the week was huge. Remember the rage when Yoshida moved weekly reset to tuesday? Even set groups want to do the stuff fast after reset. Of course they do, so the rest of the week they can do anything they want, including not logging in.

And RNG and lockouts are the oldest tools to drag shit out in MMO's. Taking time to get stuff can be done in many ways and these 2, especially when combined like in coil, don't belong in 2014 imo.

Just started PVP, and holy fuck. is it normal for every pt to have a person flee hacking?

iv been killed like 4 times by melee dd who outrun me with sprint on.

If by hacking you mean also using sprint and taking the inside line, then sure, it's normal. The arena is a circle, you can't kite a decent melee forever.

[dejet]

no i mean he is outrunning me and spaming normal attacks.

if he used sprint he would not be spaming attacks like that. lol

edit: I know what normal speed is lol.

edit2: why am I explaining shit to you? this is random complaint.

[Kaixin]

Not sure what you mean, this sounds normal to me. Sprint will not protect you from melee when they can also sprint+invigorate. The latency is forgiving enough for melee to be able to hit you as they're chasing.

If you go back a page you can see we were discussing how we thought the drops would work now such as if Wave and Tidal Wave shared the same spot, if Tidal shared same as mirror, etc. Reading is hard

[Kaixin]

edit2: why am I explaining shit to you? this is random complaint.

Well, I didn't want you to completely give up PVP just because you maybe weren't aware that melee have up to three (?) ways to restore TP after sprinting. Now that you know they can catch up to you without hacking you can start to figure out how to play around it.

[OWS_Tonx]

I gave up on PVP yesterday when I slept like 3 people and our warrior literally tomahawked everyone of them. Every. Single. One.

SLEEP IS A CRUTCH, REAL MEN WIN IN HONORABLE COMBzzzzzzz
