Last time on /xivg/:

I guess, I just feel like I'm playing the game on my own with a bunch of crafters on pager.

whats a good goal to go for if sad all the time

Okay that's enough let's all calm down and be friends again.

Falling in love with your friends?!

hello

don't be sad lol x

>Drama on an mmo

Lol losers

lol

Try getting them to run roulettes with you, or 24-mans, or maps/potd. If you're successful, you might build up enough chemistry with them to confidently bird farm. Or laugh at each other when you die to shenanigans.

Khloe done for another week time to be a useless piece of shit.

say I'm autistic and want to try and get another anime weapon before SB launches just for something to do.

would the best way to get unidentifiables be putting together alex farm parties with that express purpose?

Find something that brings you joy, like gathering, exploring, or going outside for a while and taking a walk. Sometimes some fresh air can help to lighten the load on your shoulders. Do good things and be gentle with yourself. It won't make the sadness go away, but it will help for a time. Small acts of kindness towards yourself build up after a while.

Who here more hype for Stormblood than they were for Heavensward?

>tfw no elezen wife
Why can't black mages just manifest fire inside their targets?

Are you grinding it out to get loot to turn to GC seals? You should do a mix of aquapolis/maps and that, should be a good method.

i'm not, but i wasn't really hyped for hw until i started watching all the cinematic shit
then again, i won't have anywhere near as much time to play so w/e

You could also buy them with poetics, I think like 300 a piece.

improve your life, even small things like hygiene and getting out of the house for a walk or some exercise (if you don't do those things) help greatly

basically try to have some ambition and everything in your life will follow

Well there's not much to do as a group right now. Everyone is sorting stuff out before stormblood. If you want to play with a group all you have to do is be consistent and tag along for daily/raids/ whatever.

the precision stuff that you can hand in at a ratio of 3-to-1.

I figured super fast alex runs for precision stuff + the lore to bank for umbrite would be a good way. Unless there's a way I can quickly and reliably farm poetics?

Any irl girls that wants to ERP in this game

Pls respond

You're manipulating aether and living creatures have their own 'aether' field that you can't easily/freely manipulate.

yes pm me saeha mugen

pst zettai ryoiki

oh fuck I didn't realize that was a thing. Ya go for it my dude.

Does anyone have a social FC on Adamantoise?

>sightseeing log location is "occupied"

Why are diseases apparently free of this limitation?

I'd settle for a little conversation, our FC chat is dead.

i wish i was, but i'm more skeptical this time since heavensward didn't change the formula much at all and stormblood likely won't either

i'm still very hyped and it'll still be fun at release regardless

I cant wait for all the red mages and samurai to complain about their 6 hour story dungeon queues when all the day 1 tanks and healers are already done with them.

Literally just web a stupid cat/lizardfag to fanta into a elezen. It's that easy.

I'm going to post cute elezen in this thread!

hi

literally already used to it after maining warlock forever in WoW so

i havent played since heavensward came out and barely even touched that, has it became any faster to level? if i started now could i get through the main story shit to get to the new expansion easy enough?

i just wanna get max level so i can not be behind like i was before

was 2 dps jobs a mistake for this expansion?

So what should someone with 270 gear as a BLM do for the next month? I don't feel like leveling any other jobs since I'm just going to RDM or SAM, and I hate crafting/gathering. Do I just do mount collecting or something?

You did it, you got the picture!

DPS jobs are always a mistake

yes but only with male characters

Which class is technically the most powerful in universe?

Another one down. Time to work on the last one...

...well after I'm done with Stormblood. Because I haven't levelled any of the ARR Beast Tribes and wanted to do their Allied quest before doing the HW Allied quest. Rip.

here have a screenshot

Get gear for RDM and SAM, whichever you plan on going.

I know SAM is tied to NIN/MNK. Not sure about RDM but my guess is it's tied to BLM/SMN.

If it's like Heavensward, you'll still need to do some grinding here and there to catch up with the MSQ, so spending the time FATE grinding isn't so bad.

I probably took for granted how easy it was to get any queue I wanted in Heavensward MSQ since I was a Healer leveling with a Tank.

Start collecting some materials to make cool rapiers/katanas.

Hope you like getting choked, fucktoy.

>NIN/MNK

it's tied to MNK, NIN uses completely different gear

Wanna eb?

test

good screenshot

...

Well, anyone can choke on a small bone.

I'm not cheap!

What's worse
>bad healer but good DPS
>bad DPS but a good healer

Bad healer with good DPS is worse, because a good Healer can make up for bad DPS.

>>bad DPS but a good healer

I'm not hearing a no.

yeah, bad healers are worse, since at worst a bad dps will just slow things down.

a bad healer can cause wipes.

go to bed on time

Beast tribe quests having a daily limit for their stupid reputation gains really ticks my testicles

ehh..

I slept 13 hrs today though

It will still be the same shit since ARR.
The only thing I'm really looking forward to is the combat adjustments, new skills and visiting a new continent but those will lose their novelty at some point.

welcome to dailies, the way to make even turbo casuals stay subbed

This. Makes more sense than what I was reading.
"A healer that can't dps well or a healer that can't heal well"

you can't "save up" sleep you still need to sleep at least 8 hours tonight

>The Praetorium
>Find Duty
>average wait time about 30 minutes

Alright! Time to wait for other players to join and continue with the story!

Wow, this game is so fucking awesome, I can wait until I die of old age for fucks sake

How do I get into RP on this game. It seems like fun (not ERP)

In a few hours I work at 2 pm =w=

If you join it unsynced with a friend you can enjoy the cutscenes!

More excited for SAM and RDM than I was for DRK / MCH / AST at any rate. I also like the new job actions other classes are getting from a purely visual / flavor standpoint - especially DRG's Nidhogg looking bullshit.

I just hope they don't tread the Gordias path again and things generally improve in quality. The story in HW was miles ahead of ARR, so I hope they keep that same level of story up at least.

Summoner

too late

why do i feel like i got jew'd?

I just started playing this game and i couldnt help but notice how empty the world felt due to the lack of players i see.

I got into the golden saucer and i was literally the only person in the area.
so i check the active populations in america and guess which fucking world they put me in.
yep. mother fucking mateus.
I didnt think it would matter which world they would be put in because i thought you can change freely.
but it turns out you have you fucking PAY 18 dollars to change worlds??
THEY FUCKING SAID I SHOULD GO TO MATUES WHY DID THEY BETRAY MY TRUST LIKE THAT.
I'm fucking glad i didnt pay for this game yet but they at least have to let me get one free transfer.
do i really have to start over and make a new character? feels like such a waste

but I woke up at 10pm and its only 3am, when do I sleep

You'll be surprised at how fast you can level another character when you skip all the cutscenes and shit. If you're not willing to throw down the $18, like youre a NEET or something, Id just do that instead.

Mateus is going to become the new RP hub now that Balmung is transfer & character creation locked. Just stick with it, if it really bothers you at max level you can transfer out.

alright, what level are you?

unless your max level and filled to the brim with event items it will take you about two hours to catch a new character up.

just be like aika and stay awake for 18 hours shitposting in the thread and discord

it's all he has going for him

Are you asking about "current day" iterations or at their height - that is to say, Allagan Summoners, Mhachi Mages et al.

when you get tired and try to wake up before it gets dark

>Mateus is going to be X

nyo

I'd probably say SMN because they have the ability to tap into Bahamut's aethertrail bullshit.

WARRIOR

>You cannot choose Rogue as a starting class

Why though?

No, seriously, why?

was released in like 2.4 and they just didn't bother coding it in to the starting thing I bet

What is that gear on hyur?

this game is shit

The Doman refugees don't show up until part-way through the story and they brought the Ninja class with them

It's a stupid reason but that's why

Would you recruit some random that just got off a boat screaming WHERE DA ROGUES AT

cos it was added after the fact and they are fucking shit at tying in new content to old content.

>Love WHM robes
>Love samsonian locks
>they clip horribly
Help...

Read about the lore, be knowledgeable about it and incorporate it into making a character. I really suggest you make a character that blends well into the lore and not some special snowflake female Nuhn or Hyur pretending to be a Padjal.

I also suggest you RP as the class and not the job unless the job is fairly accessible lore-wise like Paladin, Bard or Dragoon and not something like Monk, Summoner or Scholar UNLESS you have a good reason.

A simple backstory like being from a family of farmers or something cliché like having dead parents and wantimg revenge is fine as long as it is written well and your character has flaws, so your character doesn't end up a Mary Sue.
And just remember to have fun.

No it's not. Stop spreading this shit bait around. Balmung isn't the only server with a significant amount of RP players on it.

There's literally Odin, Excalibur, and Faerie. All of these servers are high in population and full of RPers, and none of them are locked.

You guys are just trying to get people to spend $18 to transfer to a dead server so you can say "haha got you faggot".

Stop trying to make mateus happen. RP is already plentiful on balmung and anyone that cared about it went to balmung.

Plot reasons.

that's not the reason, since the only requirement to be a rogue is level 15, not advancing the MSQ to that point.

Either learn to deal with the clipping, or wait for Stormblood to come and slightly improve cloth and hair physics.
