FFXIV Closed Alpha/Beta Discussion (Cancelled for this week)

[Cairthenn]

This made me laugh quite hard:

Meat Miq'abob
"A traditional Miqo'te dish consisting of tender dodo meat and ripe peppers on a stick, roasted to perfection."

4E is really amazing and everything else to. I can't wait to play now because the settings, story, battles, cutscenes and atmosphere will truely make Uematsu's work shine even brighter. I agree that some of this is out of place but when we hear it in the game, it will fit perfectly and really enhance that experience.

Nice bike in your sig. Yours? or own something as such?

I have a 78 CB550 ive been working on for a while, but im new to it. Had the frame powder coated, removed the rear sets, added clip ons, progressive rears, removed teh airbox, installed air pods and 115 mains. I left the 4 into 4 exhaust on there, i just like the look better than those 4 into 1's. I relocated the battery to fit under a cowl i made from a 750 tank, and seat pan i had made at a metal press factory for central air tubing. Not sure what to do with the tank... im really bad at creeming tanks, might just buy a new carbon fiber or fiber glass tank. Rusty bullshit. And right now im workin on rewiring the whole harness and installing some GSXR controls. The bike in my sig is a '70 triumph... when i saw it i thought it was just a rollin chassis, but thats complete, and stylish too.



cant wait to leave work to check out this music... home i go! night guys~!

I didn't realize that we knew about any of the deities, so my guess about an orderly elemental correlation could very well be incorrect.

Deities can be found on na.finalfantasyxiv.com, you just have to sniff around.
Oschon the Wanderer
Llymlaen the Navigator
Nymeia the Spinner
Azeyma the Warden(would be Astral if you're correct)
Nemphina the Lover(would be umbral)

[Gokulo]

Sorry, I can't stop myself from thinking that one of Thaumaturge skills is named Anus of Might >.< (Share your anguish, transferring all your enfeebling effects to the target. XD)

Well, I definitely think I picked a good day to take off. Thanks to the special secret person who sent me the raw data, everyones thanks are passed on to him.

I doubt anything super cool new will appear tomorrow unless someone makes a new altanaviewer to check out the dats in detail.

Heres to hoping Thurs live test will have lots of streams that will be recorded.

[Dantrag]

Would be awesome to see some of the gear stats ;x

[Satyr]

for anyone who posts here I was hoping someone would stream on justin.tv, you could name the channle w/e so its not like "hurr durr XIV lets watch" name it WHATEVER and make a password nessisary to enter and then post the channle and password here, or just post it whatever

Well the wanderer and navigator both seem related to travel, which I'd attribute to wind. Wandering seems like a more chaotic form of travel, while navigating seems like a more orderly form of travel, so maybe Oschon would be Umbral-Wind and Llymlaen would be Astral-Wind. The other ones don't seem as clear-cut to me, so I'd need to see the full list before I could start comparing.

3A reminds of Caedarva Mire or Walk of Echoes / Cait Sith.

I was trying to rationalize the same way. But Oschon is related to continental drift theory, and revered by the Miner's guild. Llymlaen could be related to wind, since she is credited with the survival of the fleet that founded Limsa-Lominsa.

Only three vowels off..

2E /tear FFVI

Nice to hear it redone and not in a midi track lol

[Cairthenn]

Also, there seem to be emotes for 10 different types of character models. Bizarre.

Ah, I guess I'd better leave it alone for now then, it'll have to wait til we have a full list of guardians.

[SephYuyX]

Inc. Male Mithra, and Female Galka.

[Dantrag]

[Lonely]

I think 50 on the soundtrack is going to be the death theme. Then again it gets "Stronger" later so i'm probable wrong. None of these sound like a death theme though.
