Nice. I just read over the Nov. update and I'll likely have to jump back in game soon and check it out. Still no great changes in content though, but the grind may be more bareable with reduced UI lag.
I must amit I lost a lot of interest after playing the same grind game for 3 weeks so FFXIV has been on the back burner for me while I play some other titles I've been meaning to get to. Like I said before, I'll give them till the end of the year and see how the December update goes.
For me...
Thanks for the responses. I did pick up ME1 and played it some this weekend. It's actually a lot different then ME 2, combat isn't nearly as fluid and there is more micromanagement of your squad (and they die a lot more). But, it is still a very good game and I'm looking forward to how things...
I picked up a copy of Mass Effect 2 this past weekend, and I have to say it's an awesome game. However, I just found out that it's a triolgy series with Mass Effect 3 coming out in 2011. I was just wondering if anyone has played Mass Effect 1/2 and if they would recommend playing Mass Effect 1...
Going nekkid overnight near the repair NPC with your gear in your bazaar seems to be the best bet for repairs you can't do. I find it helps to offer the repair materials and gil if possible. That way it's free SP to whomever repairs it at no cost to them. Shards also work as incentive.
Rank 20 is a good goal. Pre-December. It opens a few more content doors and you'll have a good foundation of multiple classes so you can specalize in one 20-50. I imagine notorious monsters (NMs) will open up beginning with guild leves beginning at 20.
On the shards being currency... I...
So I'm curious what people plan to do with their characters as far as gaining ranks. With the armoery system it pays to rank multiple classes, but for DoW/M we have limited action points based on our rank. So, if you level a sub class too quickly or far, you may not be able to use those...
My free sub runs till December 7th and I'll likely play through the holidays into 2011 and see what changes for the better. The only other MMO I'm watching atm is Rift, but that's not going to be in stores till Spring 2011. I imagine I'll be around till at least then. I just may disappear for...
Moving from Karnak to Mysidia has been interesting, as I've seen two economies. Firstly, Mysidia is very mature compared to Karnak. When I go shopping, I mostly find finished goods and not materials, indicating to me that there are a lot of high level crafters out there.
So, this is a good...
If your like me, you don't know the interplay of elements and weaknesses in FFXIV. Apparently it all stems from the lore of the game and I found an interesting post on it here "http://www.ffxivcore.com/topic/17925-understanding-the-cosmos/". However, the main take away is for damaging...
Churches are full of hypocrites, traitors, sinners and many other "labels" that we can tack on. So how great is our God, knowing we get mercy and redemption through Jesus instead of our just death.
The argument of not going to a church didn't even exist during the time of the writing of...
I played the release of FFXI (US), Vanguard, Age of Conan (not really sure why), Everquest II, Warhammer Online, Champions Online, and now FFXIV. Out of all those, I don't think FFXIV is the worst of the bunch, mainly because the game IS playable and that says a lot. Now, I agree with a lot of...
I love how SE just says "adjustments." I mean come on, what does that mean exactly? The extra free month was needed, and a good move on SE's part. It will keep the game's population up in an effort to see some positive changes and a more playable environment. Alleviation of lag issues is the...
There really isn't a market ward for repairs... but before you log for the evening couldn't you set your gear up for repairs on your retainer? That way, hopefully, when you come back to play your weapon and armor is all set to go?
I know when I was ranking weaver on my first character I...

Thanks for the replies. It's good to hear that the linkshell will be continuing, regardless. I think I will go ahead and make a character on Mysidia, and start ranking up.
Even though I'm abandoning my original character... what's a week of play in an MMO? Most of that time was just spent...
