FFXIV Accomplishments Thread - Yay I did it!

700k mgp into gold packs ish~ 2 zidane 1 war of light ._. Once you get over that hurdle it's a load off your back.

Congrats man, I know that feeling. Put in around 1mil MGP, 5 warriors of light before I finally got a zidane, major relief!

[Tobi]

I guess this is a bad time to say I got Zidane off my first 5 packs bought when Gold Saucer released ;x Too bad I lost interest in triple triad

[Tobi]

Oh, I forgot about this

[Rocl]

are you the 1 guy with it on the anniversary stream lol

[Shaano]

You wanna do my pvp achievements? I absolutely hate the thought of them.

[Tobi]

nah, I wish lol. since I put a lot of time into adders as well I was a few wins short of the 1k mael win achievement. I have like almost 1600 wins I think, so 500ish of those were adders, if I hadn't switched I would have had it before HW came.

You wanna do my pvp achievements? I absolutely hate the thought of them.

the pvp achievements wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the 1k wins in each GC lol. the rest aren't too bad, and hand of mercy is easier to get inside seal rock IMO, but I personally find the 500 rock claims one to be the worst, 'cause for me, I rarely occupy rocks. I just recently got the 300 achievement about 2 weeks ago whereas some ppl had that within the first two weeks of SR, lol.

i'm curious, did you do specific leves? i've been thinking about starting this one myself. not sure how to go about it yet.

Yeah, I focused on "Some Dragoons Have All the Luck", Lv. 45 Armorer in Limsa. This averaged around 5950 gil per leve. It's expensive because of the high amount of mythril and electrum mats, but it gave the most reward prior to 3.0. Even then I didn't switch to any new 3.0 leves because the cost of materials was too high. That may have changed as some prices have gone down and most HW triple turn-ins require 6 HQ items instead of 9.

The other leve you could possibly focus on which usually came closer to breaking even was a Lv. 45 Carpenter levequest in Mor Dhona turning in 9 Jade Crooks. That averaged around 5200 from what I remember, but considering the Armorer one I used it is far cheaper. I spent probably 80-90 million gil on materials doing that one. It's a steep price to pay, but if you can keep a steady income, ~1.5mil/wk, then it's doable and takes about 280 days starting from zero.

I bought mythril ingots every few days from the MB when prices dropped below 500 and I'd buy them up to that point. Then I'd buy the rest from the Amaal'ja vendor @514 gil/ea. I usually made my own electrum ingots as it was cheaper than buying them most of the time. Shards I got from the MB and I used a simple macro to make all of the turn-ins. It was sort of time consuming because of all of the auto-synthing, but I'd just pass the time reading or watching something on my other monitor.

Those Achievements are insane... let alone, how do you guys even get into PVP... last time I remembered Queueing for it, on Roulette, took me about 50 minutes then I gave up. I'm an Adder... is that my problem?

Roulette is always slower then just straight picking Seige. You also get in PVP waves especially at night where you wait 15-20 min for the first match but after that you get instant to 5min pops.

I'm still impressed with how many kills people get, I feel like I'm always just standing at a node in Seige.

[Tobi]

Usually there's others already standing at node so you can pick up some kills. Getting kills in SR isn't as bad as Slaughter I feel, especially if you go after them. I know its bad habit I need to fix, but I tend to try to hold off on getting kills since I hate dying with high/fever, especially fever. But killing people off before they get clutch heals(which happens alot), is too important, so I been trying to go back into habit of finishing off kills/people asap since others may not be able to dispose of the target in time.

Cometeor is still plenty strong in SR too bad no one launches them off like in slaughter, if they did, that shit would come a long way in games still, especially since kills are still pretty important. And for those rolling SMN/SCH, you'd be surprised at how shadow flare can net you kills every now and then.

[Deuce]

Legit don't know how I didn't see that.

Probably would've been easier to spot if I posted an image of it in my achievements tab.

[Kaisha]

Months upon months of dailies later.
