    I wouldn't say it was forced upon us. Remember, we were under a different director at the time, who believed in socialism and teamwork. Half of this concept seems to be thrown out of window under Yoshida.

    In short, this game is not designed with socialism in mind. It's really hard to hook up now as you can see.

    Well, good luck with the static. I think I found a good FC myself. .

    ding 50!

    also, the answer to my GC seal question that none of you got correct was:

    buy cheap unique gear from the AH and trade it in.

    not something I'd recommend long-term unless you're rolling in gil, but it got me to my crested barding and wasn't too expensive either.

    also, now I really have to decide: SCH or SMN, because I'm not doing two relics at once obviously. could do both down the line eventually, but have to choose one for now. probably SCH... I don't know why but I really love the class.

    Now that you're 50 you will start accumulating tomes(currency) for gear to buy in Mor Dhona. The name of the game now is increasing your ilvl as you go upwards in story/content. Theres multiple dungeons for you to unlock, Crystal Tower, Coils and various HM and EX Primals.

    Of course, you have to get back to main scenario first!

    yeah, tomes.. that sounds fun.

    I figure right now my course is:

    1) FINISH MAIN QUEST. priority one.
    2) unlock all the instances and dungeons I can.
    3) grind tomes while completing dungeons and working on relic

    something like that? also make money somewhere in there... and then I'm not sure how loot drops from hard mode instances compare to tome gear, so that's something to figure out as well. idk, I'm overthinking this lol

    also, I'm looking at the stats on tome gear and thinking I made a mistake AHing some of the ilvl 70 stuff (astral, mostly). it's comparable/better and doesn't cost gil...

  5. #125

    When you unlock and run hard mode dungeons and primals you'll get tons of soldiery.

    Your priority should also include getting the 3 Crystal Tower raids access and spam those for equipment/sands/tomestones. Especially after tonight World of Darkness loot restrictions will be gone.

    It's gonna be a while before you can finish main story.

    You need a minimum ilvl to do stuff like ramuh/shiva.

    You're pretty accurate on what to do. As a fresh 50 I'd do LotA/ST for gear while farming your tomestones. Once you get 1300 Sols you can get an i100 weapon and upgrade it to an i110 with a sand or oil of time from ST, forgot which.

    After you get your weapon you can get i100/110s on your right then left side then use WoD/Ironworks gear to upgrade to i120. You can use the items from the weekly quest to upgrade your i120 ironworks to i130.

    As for a better weapon past 110, that's kind of where your relic will most likely come into play. Other than Shiva EX I don't think there is anything else past i115 other than doing the final coil. Maybe in this update they'll make Magitek weapons more accessible.

    That was only during the first several months after 2.0 launch because of the character creation limits on multiple servers. Now I believe everyone including new accounts have to pay the fee.

    And yes I saw the price and that's why I didn't switch it to gilgamesh

    gah. I might explore further options on my server in that case. so nix that idea for now but I'll hit you up if that changes, see where you're at.

  15. #135

    Not really a new player, but I stopped playing around when they first introduced relic upgrades and recently returned. Is the best way to level still FATE grinding? I barely see anyone in Quarrymill, and that place used to be hopping. I'm leveling Rogue, so duty finder queues are meh.

    Low Level Dungeon Roullete will grant a nice % of your level.
    Guildhest Roulette too is nice for a quick fix.

    Otherwise yeh, FATEs.
    Try to complete your challenge logs where possible too (i.e. commend 10 players, do 5 dungeons, do 5 roulettes, do 5 fates)

  17. #137

    Cool, thanks. I actually forgot the challenge log was a thing. Think it was just released when I quit. Now I just wish I could queue while I had my Chocobro out. And that goldspammers would stop blowing up my chat log

  18. #138

    Download the guildwork client for XIV and add a few simple chat filters.

    My god the difference it makes....

    do you need to be logged in, in game for filters to work? also anyone have a good set of filters I could lean on?

  20. #140

    I'm not sure what you mean.

    You can't receive tells to filter if you aren't logged in to receive the tell. <_>

    Someone posted a big list of filters in the complaint thread a while back but

    000K
    000 K

    ....just those 2 have stopped all of them for me.
