Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn

I actually feel bad for being able to log into the game right now. I don't think a player should feel this way.

Hoping this maintenance will fix the servers.

Next week.

Ha! Well, I'm happy to hear that they are working towards a long-term solution, presumably getting MOAR SERVER CAPACITYYYY (I know nothing about servers)

Woo could log in this morning no problem. Doesn't mean that it's gonna be that way in 10 hours lol.

I managed to log in late last night and this morning as well. Got to level 9.

Playing LV 50 storyquests if anyone is interested. He's explaining things as well.

WHY DOES EVERY PIECE OF GEAR MAKE ME LOOK FAT?! I AM NOT FAT. /rage

If you're a lalafell, yes, yes you are.

CNJ hidden OP. Snipin' pomegranate with Stone II and Fluid Aura. I thought it would be boring! I was wrong.

Also, to anyone getting a chocobo ready for battle: DO NOT GO DEFENDER STANCE! Stupid piece of crap can't hold aggro for pomegranate.

Anyone care to explain how to clear level 20 ARC class quest? I've been able to handle everything but that so far; the NPCs just get overwhelmed too quickly, before I can even kill any of the mobs usually.

I haven't done the level 20 ARC quest. Why are you worried about NPCs dying when you should be DPSing?

Because without the NPCs alive you die instantly, there are a ton of mobs and they hit pretty hard.

And how are you supposed to keep them alive as an Archer?

Seems like a tough one. Make sure to take Physick or Cure before you go in.

If you're soloing most of the class quests work better if you're higher level than they recommend, and with liberal usage of other class' support skills.

Problem is I can't unlock heals without ARC to 30. Well, better heals.

each class has different class quests I'd assume; I've done all classes up to level 10 class quest and they seem entirely different after the tutorial one.

Yeah, each class quest is different. CNJ is mostly just healing NPCs while they actually do the damage, haha.

I struggled with one of my class quests as a Gladiator until I found out that you NEED to kill specific mobs first. They generally have a lot less health.
Also, helpful tip for this game is to always kill the casters first. God damn the casters annoy me.

I just got a level 32 top called Battlemage's Robe and OMG IT IS SO PRETTEH. This is the first time I've looked at gear in a game and thought, "Wow, that looks amazing!"

And yet your hatefull ass didn't bother to screen shot for us sad plebes.
