FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn Hot Fixes (Oct. 15)

[Seravi Edalborez]

Everytime I use sword oath in DF parties I'm disappointed. It's not that the healer is bad, it's just that the healer is fucking retarded.

I feel you. Run I just did had a healer practically asleep at the wheel. Acts like his spells are 4s GCDs instead of 2.whatever. Has to Cure me once before he realizes I'm diseased. Takes like 5 seconds to realize purple is on him.

Though strangely enough on the 3rd attempt I forgot to put shield oath up, realized after 1st catastrophe, said fuck it and kept Sword up for the remainder. Can't say I really noticed a difference (though WHM didn't have purple on him that time so).

Not at the point where I'm comfortable with my hate generation to keep Sword up all the time, but I'll use it on the AK bosses no problem.

Wonder which of the broken things they're fixing. I know The Unending Journey is currently broken. Hopefully they do something about the authentication expiration error as well.

[Raldo]

Authentication expiration is probably their attempt to fix the session ID flaw, so they're probably fixing that.

[Alkar]

I usually end up with relic/relic+1 DDs for some reason and as a AK gear+Ifrit's PLD I really can't afford Sword Oath all the time lol. I switch on Wall, could probably do it on the other two as well considering I'm always on the main boss anyway.

[Grey Jorildyn]

Who does Shield Oath in AK? :X

I do when I am training all the damn mobs?

^ This, do you guys only fight the packs where they spawn at? or do you not bring BLM, BRD or SMN to AoE burn 2 - 3 pulls at a time?

Oh god, I want to brush off that random skill they have in the middle of their screen.

Gdit Vel, releasing the secrets of AK speed runz.

Oh god, I want to brush off that random skill they have in the middle of their screen.

I have the same thing on my UI. It's perfect for keeping an eye on the GCD without darting your eyes down the screen. It can also help with controllers a little since macros don't queue up and you really have to spam the button as the GCD comes back up.

[Sephiroth]

I like the sound of that strategy where you pull multiple mob groups at a time but I find most tanks struggle enough keeping hate on one mob group.

[Cichy]

yeah you need a good group all around to do this

[Chamaan]

I can't stand seeing cluttered huds like that with everything sitting in the middle. You're playing FFXIV, not piloting an Armored Core.

I don't have everything in the middle, but most of my macros/partymenus/etc. are. It's so as a healer I don't have to move my eyes away from the shit that's going to be on the ground while keeping an eye on hp/cooldowns/etc.


If I could set it so the hud would switch when I switch classes, though, I would be super happy.

[Jamison]

I'm getting old. My peripheral vision isn't what it used to be!

[BlaizeAsura]

I would love to be able to save UI layouts.

Since I'm a poor 1 monitor person, when I'm doing stuff like crafting and FATE grinds I play on the smallest screen size I can set the game to, but then it makes everything overlap and shit and looks horrible, if I could just set up a second UI easily for when I'm doing this, it'd be great.

What has been fixed

The following feature has been implemented.

- A maximum limit has been placed on the number of players who can be in one area.
* If you attempt to move into an area which has already reached its maximum limit, you will receive a message saying you cannot enter that area. Should this happen, please wait awhile and try again.

The following issues have been addressed.

- When leaving the Duty Finder under certain circumstances, the player sometimes became undetectable to monsters.

- In the instanced dungeon "Amdapor Keep," monsters would become immobile under certain circumstances.

- After the 2.05 patch, players would occasionally receive the “90000 Error” or “Square Enix Account Authentication Error” and be disconnected from the server.

[Kaisha]

For whatever reason on PS3, since the first hotfix, I've been unable to easily hover over markers/fates/leves/etc on my map and have it show the label. Annoying as shit for leves.
