FFXIV Random Complaint Thread II: DPS can't count to potato

[Juran]

I barely get any RMT tells (maybe 5~10 a week?) is it because I afk mainly in a housing area or are there very few RMT on on Ragnarok?

Must be nice. Maybe your server isn't a big customer. Usually when I craft I have to put up /busy or I get spammed. Some days aren't that bad. Others I get bombarded.

No, it's definitely a NA server thing. I barely get RMT tells on Ragnarok too, but whenever I log on to an alt on a NA server it's RMT Central.

It also, probably overwhelmingly, has to do with how availible character creation is on your server.

That's a possibility too, Ragnarok is notoriously hard to create new characters on.

[Eeeks]

Character creation is very available on my server.

At best, I receive an RMT /tell once every 5-10 minutes. At worst, I receive several per minute, and oftentimes, the RMT duplicate their scripts so that you recieve two simultaneous /tells from two different bots.

It's become so obnoxious lately that I simply put up /busy unless I'm actively doing something in a party or queued for something. The vast majority of people who'd have reason to send me /tells can first get my attention via FC/LSs anyways.

I don't always play BLM, but when I do I wonder why /facetarget is such a stupid command.

-Why can we not just track targets automatically? There's the option to face your target when initiating actions in the settings already, make another that allows you to track them automatically as well, having to hit /facetarget after every time you move is just annoying and pointless.

-If not that, at least give /facetarget on/off subcommands, there's no indication whether it's currently active or not so unless you keep track of how many times you hit your macro/button for it since you last moved there's no way to tell whether you're turning it on or off.

Start a thread on OF and I'm sure you'll get 50 more answers.

today's random complaint: why does CNJ get a mount at level 30 and no one else does?

I want a freaking unicorn, god damnit.

They wanted to entice people to level up healers.

[garudyne]

IIRC there were almost no healers around for 2.0 launch.

[Niiro]

There were plenty once people got ACN to 30.

[garudyne]

I remember reading that SCHs were super rare at first (census or something) and only lately did they start to equal WHMs in numbers.

[Niiro]

Now that I think about my experience was probably heavily colored by playing on a Legacy server.

There were lots of people with every job at 50 (myself included) that started the game as ACN to level it along with the MSQ, which most likely lead to a much larger amount of SCHs since by then we were all tired of the DPS queues.

Potentially the last week of FCoB lockout and we get all shit drops. (tank ring FL, BRD waist tertiary, SMN book FL, NIN body FL, Healer hands tertiary, tank earring FL, DRG feet tertiary, i forget the 8th drop but it was shit too)

Main PLD never got: Sword, shield, head, legs, hands

[Arthars]

well we can all DF it next week till 3.0 i guess

i bought poetics dex bracelet (shit piece of gear) and nin dex poetic hands

lets see if that triggers the bahamut drop

[Dammerung]

Final tally: 8/20 drops from T13 chest was healing body. And there are 3 weapons we never saw, including 2 mains. This game is retarded.

[Juran]

My static has been getting multiple monk drops from fcob for the last three weeks. Wouldn't mind it so much if we even had a monk in our group.

Is there any way to lock/unlock hotbar icons without having hotbar 1 displayed -_-

Not that I've seen, and to add another complaint: Being able to place shit on a locked hotbar.

0/291 terra card. I've had to cheese save about 100 of those. And I don't know how long I've been looking but for at least the last 100 fights there hasn't been more than one DPS over 200 for the fight.

Wouldn't the two Imp phases kill the DPS number?
