FFXIV Random Complaint Thread: Look forward to it

Does Elemental just suck that bad? I don't do DF "often" but I've only really had one lolworthy disaster (outside of CT of course).

Most of the weirdos I've found in CT are from Ultros, but generally I have had no problem with Primal.

It's great if you have "JEDF" ticked. Think I've been trolled by a i100+ JP SMN with Titan out, and may have been called a Gaijin in anger at one stage, but typically no problems at all with the JP playerbase. English only though, The IQ seems to drop substantially, it seems just as bad as people on US and EU servers make it out to be.

This falls somewhere between complaint and praise.

HQ Buttons in a Blanket had been hovering around the 1800-2200 range for the past several months. Someone on our server bought all the ones that were reasonably priced ones (about 180 buttons, for one person) all at once, leaving only the random 6k+ listings up. Meanwhile, black truffle risotto was sitting at a stable 4200-4500. Buttons have gone back down to 3800-4000 and stayed pretty stable there, so it's finally made me ungimp my shit and start using risotto as my default food, since the price difference is so small.

I'm trying to find a pair of sandals, but it seems like the Lord's Clogs are the only ones in the game that look decent. They don't seem to be available either which is a most unfortunate turn of events.

It sounded like the next in-game event will be one similar to the Moonfire Faire of old. Assuming it works like every other event has, the old 1.0 rewards (sandals/yukatas/shorts) should be available for purchase for a pittance of gil very soon.

In some games you can trade the item for next 15-30min after winning it to anyone who was in party/alliance when it dropped.
KISS (keep it simple stupid)

I eagerly await looping firedance

Er, what happens when your mailbox becomes "full"?

I just started getting a warning message about it, do we actually have to go through and delete every single old message we get 1 at a time?

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-03 20:14

People won't be able to send letters to you, same as when you have 20 items in received letters that you haven't picked up and someone tries to mail you an item.

Think you can just right click delete, don't have to open each mail to delete it. Is annoying and time-consuming though.

I got an error saying mail couldn't be sent between my characters and had to go and delete mail till their was space. There really needs to be a delete all button for mail that do not have items in it.

**Niiro** · 2014-07-03 20:37

Ugh, there's a confirmation window ever. fucking. time.

Just gonna make a script to do it -_- had to make one for clearing my blist when it got full too.

**Kaisha** · 2014-07-03 22:26

That bug where if you fail to connect to the lobby server, it just kicks you back to desktop, requiring you to log-in again.

**Niiro** · 2014-07-04 01:58

Is there a way to make ACT not display the mob's HP value and just the HP%?

Really annoying having to make the overlay huge just to properly display a bunch of numbers I don't care about.

20 CT runs and... Still no Crimson Hat.

After a few CT runs trying to add the Fuma set to my collection, I've given up already. I don't know how people do this.

I got two Bone Dragon wipes into my first attempt at Fuma legs before I said fuck it.

Next week we get to do this shit all over with higher lvl mobs!

**Foxer** · 2014-07-04 06:05

Next week should be better than what CT is on average nowadays though. Although terrible, people with gear trying to get off-spec gear back then was way better than the people who go into CT now.

**Taim Meich** · 2014-07-04 09:09

CT now is awesome for spiritbond, with all the wipes. And besides, in full level 49 equip and a i110 weapon I still contribute more than the vast majority of participants, so...

**Taint** · 2014-07-04 09:25

My i72 BRD (spirit bonding) typically finishing 1st or 2nd on the parse in CT. But man BRD wait times are ridic, I just have some left over i70 stuff to convert.

At least with CT2 there will be pre made 8 man parties again and people will go on their mains for a few weeks. I'm really looking forward to it.
