FFXIV: A Realm Reborn

It looks like it is impossible to make a good crafting belt past level 10 unless you get a special drop from some ltw/wvr leves or from Sunken Temple....... Im almost tempted to grind a class up to ST level so I can try and get that damn drop.

EDIT: Sunken Temple drops a WVR one (lvl 35, control +19) and Cutter's Cry drops a LTW one (lvl 37, control +20)

Should check prices on market....I really need an upgrade there.

[Iecerint]

I think the Sunken Temple drops are pretty cheap on the MB? Or are they not?

Yoshi made a bunch of nice posts on the official forums. They're nice to read.

Increases to the mythology cap and new ways to obtain mytholog, as well as a discussion of the philosophy for the current endgame design.

Discussion about changes to endgame crafting and the philosophy behind the current design.

A preview of the buffs that Warriors can expect in 2.1 (AMAZING).

Justification for releasing content patch 2.1 all at once.

[AngryPidgeon]

I dislike his posts for some reason >.>

I dunno how much sway he actually has in these decisions (not much?) but them using RMT as a justification for not doing things is bullshit.

Actually help fight RMT then instead of building the game around the fact it exists.

I keep running out of lightning shards, ugghhhh. At least I have that 3x lightning shard ability from mining now.

You can log in with my character and mine all you want lol

Demand + Supply ftw.

^ They need a context menu item for report+blacklist as goldfarmer for easy reporting of spammers.

They need more staff to handle this problem specifically if that is what it takes.

You can't let them (edit: them being gilfarmers) affect how you make the gameplay. That is terrible. And I dont really believe him when he says that adding crafting drops from dungeons that crafters use and sell will increase demand THAT much.

The solution isn't to make Gil less valuable....what they are doing effectively.... that is self defeating.

Start being forceful. Bans on people for buying or selling, reporting made easier, more staff to handle this. I get that they are doing something already, but you cant just let them win by devaluing gil as a solution.

[Iecerint]

They should definitely make reporting people easier.

i dont even

[Ms Marangal]

lol, WTF? where did you find that?

[tanstalas]

50 mining!

Only Botony to go!

[Iecerint]

I'm kind of worried about accidentally getting everything to 50 before 2.1. I want to be able to enjoy the roulette system. :[

[Iecerint]

I got the allagan healing bracelet from Coil last night.

I guess that's one more slot I can get out of making Rose Gold for.

[AngryPidgeon]

What is the roulette system?

[AngryPidgeon]

Im almost striking distance from GSM 50 >.>

All my crafts are getting close.

[Ms Marangal]

I am Prolly not getting 50by 2.1

I am doing to much farming for money over xp

[Ms Marangal]

But I would like know about the roulette system too!

[AngryPidgeon]

When is XP for dungeons getting buffed? I dont wanna fate grind THM anymore >.>

[AngryPidgeon]

Mara how are you levelling tradecrafts? you are using leve allowances, right? : P

Have to check.

[tanstalas]

After clearing out my inventory partway (all my bags + retainers were full) I'm at like 330k now, just selling all the mats and stuff I didn't use to level crafts lol

I will be after housing is done!

I'm farming Elm/flax/silver/whateverthefuck and turning some of that stuff into more universal mats like Linen/lumber/w/e and turning it into money to give to housing which takes hhouuurrssss of my day, most of the time, the majority of my game-play

but, when I do get the time to actually use my allowances, I use like 3-4 allowances per 5 levels or so I'm excited to not worry about money, and housing and shit and actually get stuff done

I havn't even done GC provisions and stuff which ended up being a good amount of xp when I was doing it daily

[Pinksmoke]

and then, of course I spend a few hours a week helping someone else with their story and stuff

and I make stuff for other people, that I can't level off of

like, I made a full tank set for Fabby like a week ago?
and then, this week I made Tina a full gathering set

[Ms Marangal]

whoops, slip

but yeah

I spent roughly an hour on GSM at one point and I had gotten it from 20-25

[Iecerint]

I took GSM from 20 to 42 over the weekend. Now all my leves are gone. :[
