SCH will always be the strongest healer.

just take a break and wait for 4.0

>Yoshi is still upset people don't want to accept his shitty healer design

If you think SCH is a weak healer, you probably shouldn't be fucking playing healer.

AST buffs aren't a question of whether AST will be better than SCH. They're a question of whether AST will be usable is progression.

If this is true, can't wait to jump into PVP as Scholar again.

2.0 - 3.1
>i'm playing just for rp and the story. haurchefant is muh hero

game is dead. only 260k did the 3.3 story.
>no one is playing for the story

AST is already stronger than WHM in everything that doesn't require Cure 3 and it's very easy to overbalance it to the point where the only good thing about SCH will be Deployment Tactics. AST is broken on a fundamental level, they can't fix it by just tuning numbers, the class needs a complete rework which isn't gonna happen mid-expansion.

WAR is already stronger than BRD in everything that doesn't require range attacks

That's like at least 1/3 of people who have 110 in Legion. It's not a bad number.

It IS bad. Especially for the (viral= marketing bullshit from SQE.

Even GW1 was more MMORPG than this piece of shit.

FFXIV is the place of BAD erp and the lgbt/tumblr community.

How does it feel to still be playing 3.1?

BRD went from shit to OP in one patch

Yoshi has no clue what he's doing

>Yoshi has no clue what he's doing

Yewish P is just a hack. All the 'good' 2.X stuff was planned in the Tanaka 1.0 era.

What's the cutest outfit in the game currently?

Please don't be true.

pig suit

The ERP isn't that bad. Been pretty standard as far as Fantasy MMOs go, anyway.

Hell, better than Tera or Blade and Soul.

It is bad, very bad. Even shitty goldshire erp or lords'n'ladies erp of ultima online is better.

No, I'm afraid you're quite wrong on this.

Now this is shitposting.

>BRD went from shit to OP in one patch
This is entirely wrong but as a MCH main switching to SMN for 3.4 I don't mind if you wanna keep perpetuating this meme.

It got to the point where MCH/BRD/DRG/Caster is a very viable composition now.

>mfw I play forever alone in this game.

Why they keep trying to force this shitty AST meme down our throats?
It's bad enough it's an acceptable replacement for WHM now but SCH too?

Fuck this gay game.

I'm sure you have numbers to show us.

>AST shields are stronger, cost less mp, and their adlo is even instant cast
>schs main advantage that makes it wanted is shields that are only loosely weaker than asts, crit rng, fairy, hot and tons of utility

You all know that if they buff ast shield potency ANY further it is going to be fucking broken beyond redemption. Its fine as it is right now. Its to sch as diurnal ast is to whm.

Shitters will always be shit.

I will never understand why yoship cant accept that a game will always have a meta no matter howbalanced it is.

Its already an acceptable replacement to sch, shitters that dont raid just think it isn't because theres a meta.

Where?.

They're the devs who restrain themselves from making difficult content because it may "discourage people from doing it". They think that creating safe space is the way to go for making your game popular.

Some twitter post.

I could link it to you but the translation and source are on reddit.

Cat- or lizardgirls, what's best and which one should I choose? Is the unwanted hate against the lizardgirls still here?

Giraffe. Cats and lizards are shit.

Honestly they're both pretty bad. The lesser of the two evils is probably female lizards, though, but only because most of those players aren't complete shit.

Please don't discourage him. Few people want to play healer as it is.

Have any of you ever been kicked from a dungeon? Was it deserved?

I do too. Don't feel bad. Some of us are just meant to be alone.

>been playing for 530 hours
>still keep my camera close to my back, like feet right above hotbar 3 in lower than default position.
I really need to pull out the camera, I'm lacking a lot of awareness here, but it just doesn't feel right.

>Have any of you ever been kicked from a dungeon?
Yes.
>Was it deserved?
No. it was always either them fucking up big time or major assholes.

How do you know how many people have completed the 3.3 story?

No, but I left myself in shame. Doing Haukke Manor as a lvl28 CNJ was not a good idea.

Never.

I don't want a lot of friends , but it would not hurt to have a few close comfy friends to run some dungeons and talk with.

1 or 2 times, it was when I told some people to stop bullying another person in a trial/dungeon. Damn those French premades...

>Stone vigil
>Ask if we can skip the optional adds
>Party of three amigoes kicks me for asking

>still keep camera at my height for MUH IMMERSION even though it's clearly not optimal

I understand.

Kicked for dpsing as a healer.

post lewds

Just go to /vg/, there's literally only lewd posting there.

Yeah the most retarded kick I've seen was from Saint Mocianne's Arboretum because I "stole aggro" from the tank. I was Dragoon.

Is this "aggro stealing" a WoW thing? Because other than 2 tanks provoking shit off each other I've never seen anything like this in FF

na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/5cfaa4fdc0e2e32361222846377b75c7125e7977

how could they fuck this up. it is so fucking simple

I asked a tank to pull more once in expert when it was double-caster on dps. Booted before second boss.

Annoys the shit out of me since the current experts are already a joke to heal and dps, you can burn them out with a competent group super quick.

>be decent at job
>usually no comms
>fantasia into qt
>suddenly comms left and right

wtf I hate this game now

>Each apartment building can house up to 90 tenants
So much for the original 512 number they toted. Guess I'll rush in to grab one in the Mists for an easy port to there in addition to my Goblet house.

...

That's the reason I have slutty outfit "ahem", for the commends...yes. But seriously you get a lot of commends even as a DPS if you have a good looking oufit.

SCHs are the worst. yall niggas play a healing class to not heal but instead turn on cleric stance and play a simplified version of SMN while the fairy and WHM/AST do all the real healing.

sub ends when 3.4 comes out perfect time for me to quit.

You can steal aggro if the tank isn't in their tank stance for whatever reason

Don't know if it's a WoW thing but novice tanks often break into tears when the BLM really gets going in their party.

each ward gets 1 apartment building, which houses 90 apartments.

so its 24 times 90 times 3

6480 apartments. balmung may still have an issue given all the alts

nevertheless, gonna camp it hardcore. once i figure out where i want to live

fuck outfits, I give commends for good names.

I miss the time when you could immediately re-join to the party you've been kicked from.

That shit made them go MENTAL. Most of the time people don't kick others because they are afk/offline or the other two reasons but because they got hella triggered by someone who told they're shit at their job or gave some constructive criticism.

Speaking of Aggro stealing I often steal the aggro from tank when I play SMN'r. Is it just that those tanks I've stolen the aggro from suck att AOE aggro or is it hard to keep aggro from a SMN'r that AOE's? I wonder because it happen quite often.

damn bruh

>You can steal aggro if the tank isn't in their tank stance for whatever reason

It's not technically stealing if he didn't even hold on to it in the first place. Stealing would be if I provoke on purpose and then do my aggro combo to take the enmity away from him.

If you get hate as DD in shitty roulettes there's only one person to blame.

Au'Ra girls are cute.

Au ra were a mistake

whichever one you want. just remember that the only good au'ra female face is the fishface

>lvl 60 expert roulette
>tank pulls ONE group
>still numbers them

Fucking triggered

Shrek girls were a mistake

>Expert roulette
>Either getting a PLD or a DRK who doesn't use Darkside

If the tank isn't expecting it when a SMN goes nuke mode, they will nearly always lose agro. But any tank worth dick will never lose agro. MAYBE a pld if they just flash once or twice. But never a war or drk.

If a tank can hold your big dick burst, they're good to go.

Cat girls are fucking old and busted, it's all about dragon grills / giraffes.

>tfw no porn showing a fem elezen deepthroating a long cock that fits perfectly in her long neck.

I want SCHfags to fuck off. Your job has been the best since 2.2, get kicked down a peg.

I wish people would stop playing bard, I wanna be a special snowflake

Any SMN ready to do big-dick damage at the start of a pull knows better than to not pre-emptively hit Quelling.

That will not change that AST is a terribly designed job and should be reworked from the ground up.

Do it user, I quit right after 3.2 never looked back

Quelling strikes is a crutch. If you can't hold my flares, you don't deserve to tank.

>Expert Roulette
>PLD tanks each part of the dungeon with as much enemies as possible
>Never died and healer even has time to dps

Some tanks are just too good.

>play summoner in qarn normal
>our catboy paladin tells us to stop doing aoe and just focus on a single target
>I tell him to use Flash
>"I do use Flash mr. Summoner. You should only attack my target. I have summoner at 60 and it's quite an effective strategy."

I'm curious, are you the same person that's been asking for lewds these past couple threads?

>Some tanks are just too good.
Or you can have a WAR that does the same, plus doing twice as much dps as a PLD would.

yeah, I ask it in here because /vg/ is unbelievably cancerous and I don't want to go back there.

Ha thought so. I posted that hyur webm and those few roegadyn images the other day. Have another.

thanks, they're going into my special FF folder

ive been playing since 1.0 and never been kicked, its bound to happen sooner or later though.

I apologize for mistakes, try to defuse situations and do my job well but ive heard some dumbass reasons why some people got kicked.

Why are people still discussing this dead game? Take it to /vg/ you mongoloids.

>mfw I play catgirl and my alt is a lizardgirl

got a link to the patch notes?

patch notes are not up yet. its all conjecture.

patch trailer should be up tomorrow though

Expert Roulette, me playing my main class WHM.

The whole dungeon the tank can't keep aggro, the mobs constantly attack me and the DPS. On the final boss Calcabrina (that's her name I think) the tank losses aggro and the boss kills our DPS. I rez our DPS but one of them refuses to accept three rezes in a row, while the other flat out just leaves.

Then the DPS that refused to accept my rezes blames ME out of all fucking people for not doing my job and healing, even though I stoneskinned him and topped him off before the doll's TB killed him. After that I was just so shocked he chose to blame me out of anyone I just AFK'd until they kicked me.

People in this game are so fucking retarded.

>walk into room
>see this
Wat do?

no you dont take it to /vg/

Cred Forums discusses the flaws more than anything but that triggers counter arguments. youll get occasional LUL2.5 gaypost but its mostly constructive

official forums are pretty dead

ffxiv reddit is good for info but is plagued by reddit humor sometimes

/vg/ is one big circle jerk with 10% gameplay discussion

Letter from the Producer live at TGS is tonight at 9:30 PDT.

If AST is supposedly competitive to WHM, why do almost no groups even on farm bring them?

>Mains DRG
>"1kk gils on the DRG dying first"

There's no point in discussing a dead game on Cred Forums.

Keep it in /vg/.

I am aware. I actually cancelled irl plans to watch it.

Really did not want to go sit downtown and babysit a bunch of drunk pokemon go players again. god bless yoshi

AST is almost exclusively used for speedkills/FFlogs farming.

It's just that whm/sch is far more stable, and the more comfortable role.

What do you think Goddess/Sophia will have?

A. Biggest of tits.
B. Hips for days.

>First time doing Coil. Unsynced, bonus Tomestones. I've read the HW guide, and I've gone over T9 and T13 half a dozen times. I'll try my best not to die.
Is this a good description for PF?

She'll have hips.
She's also going to be the miqo'te primal from when they were still savages in Meracydia.

is this the part where I say the game has 700k subscribers, 10 million accounts and my server is populated. Or how the new expansion is going to be released soon or how the team releases new patches every couple of months

im new to this trolling biz xP

wow vs xiv debate finally put to rest

gg degenerate weebs

A definitely A.

SE is afraid of BC and avoids it.

If you get more than 5 people to join, strats no longer matter except for like t9, 11 and 13. You can kill Twintania before she even does a divebomb.

Less than 300k active players.

you sound unconfident, its alright to mention youre new but retype that with a straight posture.

So you've never done Void Ark or seen character models from 1.0?

...

>1kk

???

All the best players I've seen are female lizards

>final faggotry weebs would literally kill their own mothers in their sleep for a content patch

WORSE
THAN
WOW

One hundred thousand.

1000000 (1000 * 1000)

A thousand thousands. So 1m

ffxivcensus.com/

Granted the definition of active players this site uses is a bit restrictive. A bit above 300k seems fair.

why not just say 1m? what do you say for a billion, 1kkk?

Wow, only 82k active players in America. The game is even more dead than I thought. 232k active players total.

>every single female humaoid monster/primal

not to mention the thicc fairies

It's an asian thing, if I remember correctly.

Cuz I'm a dingus and couldn't remember xm was a thing

Surprised no one's sperged out yet. Last one though.

It'll be interesting to see the stats come october. And if they will actually change that much. Considering the game has 50+ servers. Maybe a merge might be a good option, or free transfer to lower pop. Mateus must be suffering.

thanks a bunch, appreciate it

I'm curious how they would handle housing if they merged servers.

Could I ask how 82k is considered dead? Granted it's not "WoW at its peak" numbers but unless a game falls below 5k or maybe 4k that sounds like a relatively healthy playerbase.

server merge would be simple. given the two name system, you'd have very few naming conflicts. as for housing, just make the server moving onto the original server have wards 13 through 24

82k is pretty bad for an MMO. You know, a game that's supposed to be filled with players. Massively multiplayer. Rocket League has 55k+ active players and it's neither an MMO nor does it have a subscription fee.

The game is dead. Get over it.

Because as a reference point, FFXI maintained 600k for around 5 years at its peak. Even with Yoshi intent on casualizing every aspect of the game and trying to make it as accessible as possible, they've only got 1/3 of the population as their previous MMO.

Given how incompetent they are with housing currently, I doubt they'd pull that off. Even the Apartments system is tied to housing wards. Such a retarded decision.

Please don't feed the Blizzshill trolls.

82k is not a healthy playerbase for an MMO.

DONT FUCKING RESPOND. This faggot does that in every thread.

My server has 4k active players
Substract the number of die hard casuals who piss their pants when someone even mentions 'extreme primal' or 'savage' and I'm left with maybe a hundred or so I can actually do endgame content with

Not today fuckers

4.0 WILL save this game when they remove PS3.

>That "die" at the end, censored out

Good shit.

4.0 isn't coming out for like another three years.

I wonder how much gil you'll need to have 250 crafted for you in a reasonable amount of time.

>Play AST because its fun in roulette
>Get invited always to my static for savage raiding because you dont need a WHM unless its cutting edge and they recognize it
>Loving all these unnecessary buffs because the community cant realize that AST is fine already

When Haurchefant died so too did my drive to play

RDM/Samurai when

Feels good.

4.0 damn it

I got kicked out of a T9 run and blocked by the party lead when I asked him what the problem was. I still don't get why I was kicked, since I was placing Meteors perfectly and the guy causing the wipes was the off-tank at Heavensfall.

That's why FFXIV is and always will be shit. Content is either ultra casual grindfest or ultra hardcore Savage mode. No midcore whatsoever.

Fuck this game and that cocksucker Yoshi

RDM/SAMURAI WHEN

i hope red mage is a tank and samurai is a melee caster

Cat or Lizard waifu?

>No magic TANK class

>No midcore whatsoever.
Midcore doesn't exist. Most people's definition of midcore content is "stuff I want to do."

But hey, they're nerfing Savage because it's too hard for 99% of the players. So you better go do it this time around.

Neither

>No niche special snowflake TANK job

the cat would be much better with less eye shadow

remove freckles

Im fine as long as we get one healer or tank. If we get two DPS im gonna snap.

This
Midcore is a myth. Things will either be too hard or too easy for some people.

Kicked three times for playing PLD in expert roulette

>mfw the tank asks me to quelling
>implying I even levelled arc past raging

I main PLD and have never even heard a complaint about the class let alone a kick since playing from launch. You either got horribly unlucky or something else was going on.

>less than 2% clear rate in the west

I just think it would be fun seeing new type of tanking instead of the traditional Paladin, Warrior or DKnight.

Also it would be good for my magic-only alt.

Roe and female highlanders nigga

This game is shit and not successful. Debate me.

Where are you getting this info from?

excellent taste

Never gonna happen. They will make a tank that can wear heavy armor so it can fit into the raid/tomestone gear across the board.

They won't ,make some snowflake armor that only X tank can wear

This game is good and successful.

Tanks have mostly worn 'vaguely' armored coats and thigh high boots for a while now. Fuck wearing gear that looks like it would its job protecting you, you're not leveling anymore.

They need to remove Yoshi, I can't take it if 4.0 is the same shit as 2.0/3.0

The formula sucks ass

Incorrect.

>We need to remove Yoshi

If I had the chance I'd probably kill him.

Whom do you suggest as replacement?

I got kicked as a tank because I was pulling too many mobs and our shit healer couldn't keep up.

Imagine shortstacked roes

As much as I love Summoner, DPS queues are fucking awful. I can't decide on what tank or healer to be my primary choice for those roles.

How short?

it was a AST wan't it?

>playing a game with queues

yer own damn fault

Defeats the whole point. The best part about them is that they're huge.

If you have SMN, you have sch. Which is basically just smn-lite with a fairy to heal for you, instead of a giant chicken nugget to tank for you.

Anyone who has experience and not someone who was only brought in for if the game did flop again they wouldn't lose someone worthwhile.

The cat does not even have eye shadow, you can only chose one "face paint" option and that's the freckles. And the freckles are too cute to not have!

SUMMONER EGI GLAMOURS BECAUSE FUCK YOU

Short enough to give you standing blowjobs without issue

God, I wish Yoshi never mentioned a word about this useless shit, now the whining will never stop.

Please look forward it.

you need to provide proof that your statement is factual user

2.5 GCD

Short roes would just be hyurs, what's the point?

Now that you can have cooldowns reset upon a wipe, what other QoL should have been added from the start?

Pic related.

Very few subscribers.
Shit gameplay and graphics.
PS3 limitations.
99% ERP Furfaggot community.

Let's start there.

3 second server ticks

>implying the devs would even know how to code that
That or PS3 limitations

You're right. Don't know what I was thinking

>you will never dominate a blue skinned amazon

Gear progression tied to a weekly currency

this post is bait, but im all for an actual xiv thread.

>SCH doing 1k DPS

Foolish boy, I go PLD so my WHM can do 2k on the big pulls.

But it's just the crafting inner quiet function, it's stupid where it only allows 30 shown and 60 max. Least by combining everyone but your own dots onto the enemy it's less clutter.

>very few subscribers

You're right about ASTs being fundamentally broken though, rather than being a third healer it's just trying to be the healer that's all, "I CAN BE A MINI-WHM OR A SCH LOOK"

where the hell does all the money this game make go because it surely isn't for this game.

...

see
Here's my arguments.

>we provide zero proof of the number of subscribers we have but we expect you to take our word for it based on inaccurate parse data

FFXV

FF XV

FFXIV 1.0 was part of the black hole era which almost sank Squeenix.

FFXIV 2.0 reset is part of the Lightning era which saved Squeenix and currently exists to pump money into the company's other investments.

Don't listen to memeing faggots who would rather have a girl that looks like a man and go with whatever you like.

Keeping SE out of bankruptcy because no other games they make actually pull a profit apart from Dragon Quest.

not an argument. you tell me why 87k or 220k or whatever it is 'very few', and why that is a bad thing

>Tanks that pull with provoke

VII Remake

I told you faggots a long time ago, once they have a chance to make money elsewhere they'll stop pumping content into this shitty unsuccessful shitpile.

>lightning era
>saving square

Crawl back to /vg/ you fucking sack of tumours

>I told you faggots a long time ago, once they have a chance to make money elsewhere they'll stop pumping content into this shitty unsuccessful shitpile.
They've been doing that for 10 years with FFXV.

I really hope the job(s) in next expansion isn't SAM, RDM or BLU.

wasn't there supposed to be a trailer for 3.4 today

There's several arguments There's no evidence to suggest 87k subs let alone 220k.

Yes, and no.

Gonna need sauce for that, friendo.

It's in 10 hours

How about official public database parsing you mongoloid

My only problem with Scholar is it plays way too similar to Summoner. Only instead of throwing out Deathflare crits for 10K, you're throwing out Adloqium crits for 10K. The supposed buffs to Astrologian in 3.4 has me interested in picking it up.

>tank marks enemies in order for every mob
>pulling in five...

then it should be easy to write them out. lets see it

>no way to prove how many subscribers they have

then you're just making shit up to say 'very few' when you in reality have no idea how many subs there are and couldn't make a valid statement to begin with. stop memeing and GTFB2R

>bard says we have no aoe

useful depending on the situation although for the most part you would be getting shitters that dont know any better

as a bard myself, its shit. if you have two bards its best to single target shit down in small packs so the healer can dps 90% of the time

You're making this up, right? RIGHT?

Every time I consider this game I read threads like these and it makes me never want to try it. A mix of the complaining, low pop, and ERP scare me away every time.

its pretty good
put some dots on some for Rain of Death procs, spam knock and bam, dps

Yeah rather go and read the Blizzshill threads and play those games.

>always feel like an abject failure of a tank if I lose aggro on anything for even a few seconds
>hear all these stories about pissy tanks who blame DPS for "stealing aggro"

I don't understand, that'd be like blaming the healers for hitting enrage timers.

none of those things are actually true. its just a few memers

>How about official public database parsing you mongoloid

Totally inaccurate considering the people who administrate the parse don't give us enough information about what they're parsing.

I did write them out:

>You have no idea how many subs they have.

Exactly. It's called burden of proof. If you claim to have subs you need to prove it not the other way around. The parse doesn't count because it's inaccurate, very potentially bias and doesn't give enough information about what they're looking for while parsing.

>I can't be bothered to play this video game for $10 with 30 days of gametime because trolls on the internet

Something that should tip you off as to those things being totally true:

The instant replies that try and convince you to play without giving you any contrary evidence.

>ERP scare me away every time.

Right because you're gonne be molested and raped 24/7. And you won't be able to run a single dungeon because you'll be tied up in someone's rape basement.

Grow the fuck up. Some weebs like ERP, big deal, just don't visit those places and don't join a server that's notorious for this. But don't bother at all.

you made the statement: 'There are very few subs'

prove you have numbers, prove those numbers are right, define 'very few' and then say why thats a bad thing. i just did half your job for you. fill in the blanks. if you cannot do one of those, then you are just a reddit tier minitroll who will go no more yous from me

You'll have to spend a month catching up through the story and grinding out cross class bullshit to even qualify for the latest content anyways. Why bother?

>Oh no, I'm not going to be grossly overpowered in comparison to other jobs for the first time since 2.1!

Fuck off and never come back.

The fact they don't release hard numbers is enough to convince me that they have a very small and/or fickle playerbase.

>The fact they don't release hard numbers
Like Blizzard?

>the information is not available
>so it must favor my 'argument'

Sure. So what?

The only ERP you'll find is on Balmung and only in Ul'dah, usually at the Quicksand.

Complaints are old jaded players. New players like you would enjoy it for awhile. There's a free trial anyways, nigger, try it.

Low pop is only some servers. Balmung is the highest pop server hands down and you'd never be able to roll there, it's closed 24hrs a day 7 days a week, only open for 5min intervals to new chars at completely random times. Other servers have decent pop like Malboro or some of the other Cred Forums and reddit servers, e.g; cactuar, ultros, etc.

Unfortunately, no.

That being said only a few of the really bad tanks do that. That particular run lasted forty minutes. On a normal Tam-Tara run.

Yes, the fact they are scared to release sub numbers favors my argument..

Or maybe they know they'll get shitposted to hell and back if their numbers are anything less than the retarded numbers WoW used to pull so they don't bother.

Or maybe they don't have many subs.

>forty minute Tam-Tara
What the fuck was he doing?

>Healers who jump around doing nothing waiting for my HP to drop while I'm sitting at 90% HP

prove they are scared to release. or am i to keep taking your word on things, since you somehow can make a comparative statement like 'very few' without actually knowing how many people are subscribed

Until I see patch notes, this doesn't mean shit.

>become friends with erp'er
>totally cool but a slut
>makes for interesting conversations even with randoms
>very good healer too

>Prove they're too scared to release sub numbers.

They don't release sub numbers.

Wew laddy that was hard.

Impossible to say for sure so you can't construct a sound argument either way.

>durr everyone's at full HP
>I have a bunch of damage skills on my toolbar, but I'm gonna just stand here with thumb up my ass instead

Why? I seriously do not understand these people; healing is boring as shit if you're not DPSing. My very first dungeon I ever ran on healer I was DPSing the shit out of everything.

Did Savage kill this game?
5% of players killed T13, which required you to go through ALL the previous coils
Meanwhile Alex has no attunements whatsoever and still only less than 2% cleared it up until now
More than half of players who regularly did coil on my server quit. So many dead linkshells and FCs
It seems if you dont play on 1 or 2 very specific servers your chances of ever clearing the only meaningful content are basically zero

but you can't prove that is out of fear

here is your absolute best argument:

'In my experience, there are not a lot of people playing the game compared to other games of the same genre I have played'

>Tank pulls big
>WHM doesnt Holy
>Just sits on their ass

I dunno what you two niggers are arguing about but it just came out recently that FFXIV has around 300k subs right now, which obviously isn't wow levels but it's fucking -wow-, millions of idiots have stockholme syndrome and came back for the expansion, meanwhile it's 11 days before a major patch on XIV. Come back when 4.0 Ala Mhigo comes out and see what they have, it still won't be WoW's peak but it'll be good for them.

On that note, sub numbers these days fluctuate so much even with WoW that it's pointless to tell them now, the only reason to brag before was because they just kept going up. Now it's up and down never quite reaching new heights so it's better to hush and let the stockholders stay in the dark so they don't see a huge drop in numbers and scream "ABANDON SHIP" and fuck the game over even though people sub and unsub every fucking day and it's not like it's ever a static number.

good ERPers are usually pretty good players too. has something to do with effort

Right, spamming Stone 2 contributing .006% DPS to the parse is really exciting and rewarding.

I think more MMO's should focus less on the "end game raiding" as only a small amount of players are doing it.

I'm not saying there should not be any end game raids, of course there should. But nowadays all focus in nearly entirely on that which is so sad.

Flawed game design methodology really hurt this game. No aspect of the gear treadmill or the raid design really favors the individual player. I understand that the point behind it is to constantly keep the player occupied with something to do or look forward to, but nobody wants to spend a month to farm one piece of gear only to replace it the next month.

>good healer
>also erper
Congrats, you met a real life healslut. What's their name, by chance? Because I'm also a WHM main that erps

i didnt bother with savage because i had to put up with the shittiest groups just to clear coil and didnt want to go through that time wasting shit ever again

Never be in my duties you trash healer.

>you can't construct a sound argument either way.

Sure you can. It boils down to simple burden of proof. If they can't provide evidence of a number of subscribers then I have no obligation to believe they have those subs. Therefor there's no reason to believe the game has much of a playerbase, nor is there any reason to believe it's very successful.

Yeah but you're not a good healer so it's obviously not you.

Bitch please, I pull aggro off of tanks with Aero/2/Stone 2 if they're not careful. You clearly don't parse if you make that assumption, Healer DPS is pretty high and can be higher than non-WAR tank dps.

I'm not a trash healer you're just fucking retarded if you genuinely "can't understand" why people wouldn't bother, as you claimed not to.

>WoW millions of subs.
>They counted free to play account on their numbers.
>They count the Chinese players that has dirt cheap sub cost which makes them have 10 account each to bot on.
I would not be suprised if WoW had even less subs than FFXIV during the deadtimes on the expansions(Which is 80% of the expansions). If you've ever played WoW you should now how dead the servers are at those times, even the most populated servers are like entering a ghost town with only bots.

>SCH dead
>infinite mana
>non-trivial DPS
>pet that spams heals giving them more time to actually capitalize on their ofher bonuses even if a little
>someone finally gets close enough to touch SCH and they freak out

Marking every enemy, and using a Viewtiful Joe themed pull macro.

Also just spammed Heavy Swing and the occasional Foresight.

Only stuck around because the Dragoon could tank and because I was one DF run away from hitting 50. I've never come so close to wanting to kill myself.

someone farm yokai weapons for me, thanks.

Ok good for you, I don't play with shitters who let healers beat them in the parse.

>it just came out recently that FFXIV has around 300k subs

Let me guess. Kotaku.

No you're shit if you honestly think healers can not contribute to group damage.

I'm sorry your WHM DPS is so shit user but I'm out damaging a good portion of DF shitters on mine.

>I think more MMO's should focus less on the "end game raiding" as only a small amount of players are doing it.
In WoW 60% of players at least see the content because it doesnt have attunements, but a story mode where its practically impossible to wipe
I think tying all content to quest lines and making Normal Alex too hard for the average player is hurting this game
Keep in mind the 'average' player is overwhelmed using more than 6 buttons and leaves after a single wipe
Legion had like 3 million day on sales and dont pretend that XIV doesn't have ridiculous content draughts as well
Odd numbered patches might as well not exist because you can experience everything they offer in 1 day. Then there was the 3.0-3.1 drought which followed an expansion release

>i'm not a trash healer
>I don't dps
Pick one, faggot. If you're not dpsing you're completely fucking useless.

That's not what I said though.

I didn't say I don't dps. Reading comprehension, try it sometime.

What severs are everyone playing at and anyone feeling like playing together?

pls respond

>Keep in mind the 'average' player is overwhelmed using more than 6 buttons and leaves after a single wipe

On the flip side, when you give people like this a fair challenge you have a chance to turn them into a dedicated subscriber, someone who doesn't unsubscribe just because they feel like they've seen all the content.

Is this game worth getting? Reason being I'm trying to get in contact with my old high school friend on it.
She uses her character as a profile image and cover photo. But she has Friend Requests and Messaging disabled because she became a recluse I believe.
Kind of cut deep because me and her were pretty close before she moved away. (platonic only, I like sucking dickies and masturbating to Cred Forums bara bait)

>Should I sub to stalk.

Think about that one.

I'm 99% certain that's a myth. Experience has proven time and time again that players only play on the difficulty they are comfortable with and never increase it. Even Blizzard treats the 4 difficulties of raids as seperate progression paths nowadays because their data heavily suggested that 90% of players never advance. They want content that's a certain difficulty and that's it.

forest_nymph

gordias was too extreme of a difficulty spike
story is pretty garbage too, and fucking nobody likes goblins

2.0-2.4 was terrible. Some people play for story, most because it's a ff mmo

It has a trial so you can try that.

Only problem is trials limit what you can do, so you can't send /tells to her if you find her. You can probably talk to her in a party though.

It wasn't really about the goblins, though. It was about emo dragon nerdgirl and the righteous battle against giant robots.

>AST just keeps getting buffs to try and make it relevant
>meanwhile PLD still lags behind the other two tanks in most content and continues to get nothing

Bravo Yoshi

It's like you have no idea what kind of fanbase this game has.

When you give people like that a "fair challenge" they
>whine and cry to Yoshi that it wasn't a faceroll until it gets nerfed

That sounds like it could be a complex situation. Not really sure if there's a right way to go about that, but if you really want to try to get back in contact with her and actually do want to play this game, I'd say go for it. The first hurdle I see, though, is finding out her name. Is it safe to assume you already know it?

>grossly overpowered
Can shitters please leave? The jobs in this game are SO balanced that literally nothing is overpowered and the gaps in what is better are abysmally small.

Seriously leave, your influence on the devs is a fucking cancer.

You can't help people like that unless you baby them

Don't even bother, they're just going to get to max and get kicked out of every group until they quit not understanding what's wrong despite being told

Or join a guild and have it ehipped into them

Nothing you can really do to help it desu

This.

They've been pretty adamant about not reducing difficulty of current raids even after people cried about weeping city after months of snoozefest void ark
seems like they're learning

You sound like someone who doesn't know what they are talking about.

>it's a myth

Final Fantasy XI was an MMORPG that frequently pushed back against players, and had the most loyal playerbase of any MMORPG. So no, not entirely a myth.

Also, there are times when there's a limit to how hard a game can get. You can very rarely go above a level of difficulty in an MMO because you reach a pinnacle and you cannot proceed past it.

Those that are grossly behind that peak normally don't have enough time to dedicate to the game in order to reach that peak, don't know how to allocate time or other resources into reaching that peak, or simply don't care to.

So let them whine and cry. If they enjoy playing the game (which they won't because the game is shit) they'll keep playing until they succeed, and that feeling stays with them and they'll want more.

I have the username she frequently used when we used to play Alpha Minecraft together and when she added me on Deviantart. They're tje same and I believe she might be using the same username here as well.

Sure, twice.

Other time was also for explaining boss mechanics to people who kept fucking it up, reported them for abusing the system as you're supposed to but still have no idea what that accomplishes.

I agree with the other guy, take coil for example, the battles were hard but pretty fucking epic, and the atmosphere along with the story was superb and had actuall relation with the world you are into, ow take alexander, a giant robot full of the most annoying fucking retarded goblins, thats why nobody likes the new raid, the boss battles are nice tough, but fuck the goblins

XI started off that way and so that's the fanbase it cultivated.

You can't just make a Babby's First WoWclone Lite, let that go for 2 years and then try to turn it into XI.

>doesn't recognize taimanin asagi
You have to be 18+ to post here kid

>Paladin in Quarn
He was right, quarn before shield oath is suffering and literally impossible to maintain aggro if people do aoe or attack more than one target.

Still a faggot for not just letting you do your thing and die for it as a result.

Exactly my point. They should have made something more akin to XI in the first place.

>people keep saying ast is underpowered and sch overpowered
>despite the fact that ast is supposed to be an underpowered version of both healers
>their only argument is that sch/war always has a spot in raid
>lets ignore the fact that sch is actually the weakest healer in terms of HPS, and now has the weakest barriers in the game outside of crit rng; despite being THE barrier healer
>yoshi p will just continue to homogenize all the roles

These people are the reason the state of this game is garbage. Its because yoship listens to the 98% of the people who don't. Fucking. Raid. When it comes to class balance.

Holy. Shit.

Now we're going to have something extremely overpowered in noct sect. Like 150% shields or 5% damage mitigation buff when healed, on demand. Ridiculous.

I think you would have liked 1.23. I still miss it.

Only reason to run is to escape the aoe radius of the smaller bombs since the big one will set them all off, but those should all be knocked out of range regardless.

>be drk in expert
>whm holies doing good dps
>most blood prices go to waste
>barely any mp to do shit
>still happy the healer is contributing

Why does it have to be like this

They did and it bombed. WoW poisoned the well when it comes to the old school MMO formula.

I played 1.23. Wasn't anywhere within the realm of XI but it wasn't totally without merit.

Why are femroes so rare, Cred Forums?

ODIN
D
I
N

Don't want to play though. I'm in the process of gathering mats to je- I mean craft things to sell

Exactly, it had merits. 2.0 was supposed to improve and fix it. But we just got a completely different game instead.

>They did and it bombed

It bombed because the people making the game released a beta. They released a beta because their staff were too busy reading manga instead of making a game. It had nothing to do with it being similar to XI (which it wasn't.) That's a total slander.

Yeah. Yoshi lied to us and made a WoW clone.

I once left Aurum Vale after the tank pulled the entire first room like a dumbass. Couldn't even keep aggro and I'm sure he was above lvl 50.

People who solely do 23 man raids think their opinions matter and should have a say in job balancing

>that bait and switch where they never said 2.0 was changing the combat, just new map redesigns and engine.

The best thing from 2.0+ personally is how nice it is to just chill with a controller because playing mmo on a keyboard is tiresome now.

Honestly I don't mind the combat. It's shallow and shit but it's still probably the best thing about ARR.

Use blood price when stun resist sets in, famlam.

You posted remi so I like you
I'm on leviathan

KEK

Because it's a badly designed job, pham. It's fun to fuck around with but horrible meta.

Oh I fucking wish. Every class and job bleeds wasted potential. Which is just so sad when the worldbuilding is so nice. I would straight up murder people for XIV with unique, interesting classes, diverse roles, fun gameplay, real customization and bigger zones.

I can't think of a game that the term 'polished turd' applies to better and it kills me.

user, ARR has probably the worst combat of any MMO in recent memory.

I play on Diabolos and i really like it here.
Decently populated and with an active raid scene

>it's a 'lala blm pulls the boss before half the raid is there and gets 4 other people cleaved to death' episode

That's a drop in the bucket compared to BP especially if the mobs drop fast.

In the end he'll lose more MP switching back to grit

I agree. I still think it's the best thing about ARR. The graphics are nothing special. Character customization is nothing special. The zones, flying mounts, PvP (or lack thereof,) shallow classes and so on and so on and so on really don't impress me even in the slightest.

Most packs don't live too long after that, hence the blood prices going to waste. But I do try to get what I can.

Just mad at the class.

Diabolos and Leviathan. I feel like people sleep on these servers which both have solid people playing there

Maybe one day we'll see another XI.

>dunesfolk lala blm

Is this game ever going to stop being a sub game?

I'd flat out buy everything if they didn't stack a monthly sub fee on top of it, seriously what nonsense

I didn't mind how shit the cinematography was in 2.x because it wasn't the main priority, but 3.x didn't even try to improve or get back to 1.x/FFXI quality.

I fucking hate how static everyone is and fading in and out

I think the aesthetics and worldbuilding are a better aspect than the combat. It's a shame the world is so fucking small.

>The cat boy dragoon fag gets hit with final punch in A8S

Except I wasn't dying and I've seen plenty of paladins tank Qarn with no issues. The guy was just fucking awful. He wasn't even trying to hold aggro: he just used one Flash and called it a day.

When DQX is allowed to come out in English.

Calm down sperglord

...

I hate to crush your soul. Don't read the following if you're prone to that sort of thing:

Yoshi Piss basically said he'd rape it and make it a WoW clone if he ever allowed it to come to the states.

I can believe this, but I still kind of want to see some kind of proof even if it's in Japanese.

Marking shit seems redundant but focusing shit down might be easier on the healer I guess I don't know. I rather people go ham on AoE pulls.

Nope. More people might clear Creator if they actually meant that it'll be similar to FCoB in difficulty (but they said Midas was "between second and final coil" so who knows,) but I don't see the population ever resurging until 4.0

Maybe he didn't knew the dungeon or had the camera somewhere else.

>ast is now good
What happened

I'd like some sauce with that past please

Buffs to shields and cards supposedly. But again not addressing the reason why noct ast is a garbage replacement for a sch: better mp management/more sustainable dps, embrace, and fairy buffs, all of which AST can't replicate.

I know how you feel. The people that aren't exhausting to be around are few and far between.

>Buffs to shields and cards supposedly.

were they actually JP clients or just regular EN weebs?

>leveling really casually as I'm also playing legion, also very casually

One of the only two characters in this entire fucking game that I like just falls over dead.

I doubt I'll be able to find it among all the unprofessional reviews of ARR.

who's the other one?

they probably die too

>Has a cute character with a short skirt/dress.
>Storyline cutscene
>All those pantyshots.

This is badass. Why don't we have any fighting scenes like this in XIV?

Noct sect will never be useful unless they gut Eos and give AST deployment tactics.

English weebs. I make sure I have it set to not use jp players in my duty finder because fuck latency. Anyway had a friend who was with me when it happened. He then told me how the weeb was with his friend and they were doing tiny pulls in fractal.(weeb was healer his friend tank) Tank also died alot

Aymeric. He better not die.

I think the thing that excites me most about 4.0 is that I can finally get the fuck out of Ishgard and never look back. Tired of dealing with these faggot ass elves, at least when the potato Jews were our biggest antagonists they were fun to hate.

I want his fucking clothes so badly. So much swag

Mocap cinematics clearly aren't prioritized for FFXIV on the Squeenix queue list. The Game of Uldah finale was praised across the board for the mocap.

So it wasn't, then. Midas was a good raid but let's not excuse the incorrect statement.

This guy knows what's up.

now in 4.0 we will see thicc bitches in skimpy clothes

>Mocap cinematics clearly aren't prioritized for FFXIV
Because square doesn't want to spend money on something that could become a blunder like 1.0. That and they take whatever profit XIV gets and uses it to fund their other projects instead of using it to improve apon the game

Aww too bad. I play on Odin myself.

>DRK puts on Blood Price while I'm mid holy spam
>I don't stop

Card buffs do affect parses though, you notice a spike in damage increase if balance is used at start, if you focus balances on one person throughout a fight it also pads out their damage.

One balance was enough to boost a drks usual dps by 300 in hummelfaust.

>he thinks they will do anything to body shapes

And you lose out on the sch's average 800 - 900 dps for astro's 400 - 500. That's a 100 dps loss

How do I deal with a friend that plays a lalafell and always acts lewd? Playing with them is a lot of fun but they make comments like 'you know if I stand on the tips of my toes I could give you a nice time" and I have to go fap. She isn't attractive in person so I wouldn't want to hit that.

SHINE!!!!

If that were true, the finale wouldn't have happened the way it did. Its pretty obvious from Squeenix politics the last few years that the real culprit is XV sucking up money.

PS3 limitations

So is this game dead or not. Someone must be able to give me a reasonable answer.

And then it will be whatever major project after

Yep.

exhentai.org/g/735157/7ca4a1768a/

I'm not saying its better, I'm saying it does affect parse.

If they buff ast barriers any further, bringing sch over astro will be questionable tho, considering they will have on demand deployment tactics.

I hope it's all 3 of those.

That is is still shit. Only race with a decent ass are femroes but they have the worst faces of any race

Sharing lewds.
[email protected]

Once Squeenix gets over the XV hump, the company will have nowhere to go except up. KH3 is guaranteed to be a hit, FF7R is guaranteed to be a hit, DQ will be successful as it always has, Dissidia 2 is just around the corner, Chibi Fantasy in October, FF HD releases looking great, etc. etc.

All it can do is win at this point. And if XV fails horrifically, it will get the trilogy treatment.

Red mages can wear heavy armor they could make it work since red mage is just a hybrid class and that shit don't work in ffxiv. Make the black magic threat building offensive abilities and make the white magic defensive cds and self healing

>get kicked
glad I quit honestly. The main problem with the game is its retarded players and its never gonna get fixed

Man seeing these little faggots kick me as a tank when they get mad makes me feel so fucking good. You just know they'll be waiting 10+ minutes for a new tank when you're in another dungeon by 30 seconds

Great, the avatarfags are here. They really killed any sense of community /vg/ could have offered.

The WoL is the world's hero, but he was our hero.

He was too good for this sinful world.

You can get kicked in WoW for simply falling behind a couple meters in an unknown dungeon. FF14 community despite being mostly retarded to hold a controller straight is still not as toxic as most MMOs are.

I was waiting until TGS to sub so I could grab those event earrings. Turns out they removed them in 3.3, wonderful.

check'd

thanks for the money goyim

you guys fishing up some cool fish to put in your aquariums?

I still don't know where I want to put it. I might have to remodel my house again.

>these tank horror stories

Shits crazy I never had to deal with shit like this. The worst I have it is when a party goes smooth but at the boss people die to stupid shit like adds on a boss that don't need to be tanked.

>tfw soloing the first boss of library after everyone ate shit

Not that it's a hard boss to dance with but shit was tense and it was an FC group

>you guys fishing up some cool fish to put in your aquariums?

I'm planning on making mine all goldfish. I need to go hit up the DB and see if there's any koi in this game too.

Mercantile'd my way to an extra 10 million gil for the patch just for apartment/aquarium/new housing furnishings...

>They won't ,make some snowflake armor that only X tank can wear
>dragoons

I want to get 10 of them and line the walls in the basement

but it's probably one per estate because no fun allowed

>tfw crafting high demanded furniture to sell when apartments hit

How are you guys pre-planning for 3.4?

Space limitations, pls understand

I lost my house due to inactivity....so no.

>start as gladiator

>its ok, but reach the same problem within 3 days
>move to limsa lominsa, start trying out their jobs
>already repeated the cycle with arcanist and marauder
At least im enjoying this i guess

>How are you guys pre-planning for 3.4?

Farmed a fuckload of gil to buy furnishings from you so you can feed your retainers

All I need is a bed and a painting of Merlwyb for every wall.

I'm going to tell my story:
>huh FF XIV for ps4? I like mmo and FF, so let's try
>Pretty cool... very beautiful game.
>Hey user, do the MSQ and catch up with us...
>o-ok
>Reach level 50 with BLM, did not reach Heavensward yet
>I don't want to 'waste' quest exp
>Buys Heavensward
>Soon after, start a NIN because it looks cool
>Level to 50, do more MSQ
>lv55, reach Heavensward. but didn't do a single quest yet
>Try WAR a little, go to lv35
>There's still 100+ MSQ to catch up with endgame
>tfw 300h+ of gameplay already
>Drop the game

I just want to KYS myself

What's a good way to farm gil now? I used to farm Clusters in 2.x and sell them to earn my living but now I have no idea how to make gil. I hate the new gathering system so I rather not spend time with that.

And this is why the game will die. It's slowly going to suffocate itself under the weight of mandatory quests.

They're already said way back when Heavensward launched that you won't need to do HW MSQ to access 4.0. How else would you level?

Boost

Did the Chaos datacenter die just now?

Making the level 50 'story' required is probably the dumbest shit I've ever seen in an MMO. Give people a cliffnotes NPC if they care, don't force people to play through all of that shit to get to their friends.

The hack said they'd think about doing a msq skip system in the next xpack

Then you'll stay poor.

>complaining about having to do story in a Square-Enix MMO

It's like you never played 11

Great, so you just have to wait for a theoretical update that's probably a year+ off to participate in the game again. Hopefully you didn't want any of the dungeons or rewards or literally anything that comes with the MSQ from Heavensward!

>complaining about too much gameplay

Cherish the leveling and MSQ before you hit endgame and become bored

On my server those dark matter clusters from the same nodes as elemental clusters sell fast because people are always buying them for airship repair mats

>Cherish the leveling and MSQ before you hit endgame and become bored

Why even play an MMO if not for the end game? Anybody playing an MMORPG for the story is fucking retarded.

Why should you get rewarded for being a lazy fuck and skipping everything

I was getting powerlevel'd in Adoulin zones before I had finished ANY storyline.

>it's like you're full of shit

No offense but it's stupid easy to make money in this game with crafting/gathering

I've never even used a bot and I've got two personal houses and all the gil I need without having to do stupid amounts of grind. You don't even need to have it at max level. Just find the stuff on the AH people need but are too lazy/busy to get themselves and corner the market. If the market gets competitive find a new one. Get those retainers working for you too.

You're right, people probably just won't even bother to play, which was my point from the start you fucking retard.

Literally required in Aurum Vale or you WILL wipe

It has its uses

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were a post level cap increase pleb. I meant real XI.

Do we actually know anything about apartments yet? Item limits and if they self destruct from inactivity specifically. If they don't I might actually play this garbage again.

Is the Palace of The Dead any good and fun and is it something that can be done with through the duty finder?

>your character just stands there

what is the player even for, if they don't help fight?

>self destruct from inactivity specifically

Houses do; apartments don't

>Item limits

No idea yet

Is the EU server supposed to be kicking me out at this time of day. Really nice fucking game there.

The whole building looks instanced

you can't even chill in the hallways and pimp catwhores in the stairwells or anything looks like

I do it all the time because it's extra range. Threat is an afterthought so not like you need it during the pull.

Being honest with you guys:

Sometimes i slept while doing dungeons

I'd recommend focusing on one class/job at a time until you've got one higher level, like 50 and above. Also, FATEs and dungeons are what you want to grind when you run out of quests at your level. For FATEs, I think people stick to the La Noscea area mainly for those depending on your server, of course.

Play war, solo entire dungeon

Odin is a good place to be

Official preview went out days ago.

na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/5cfaa4fdc0e2e32361222846377b75c7125e7977

To be honest the fight just looks like any dumb anime fight where everyone else stands in the back and does nothing.

with how boring dungeons are no suprise

Ive done it too

>monks

If it weren't for the fucking Arabs and French.

>solo shit in an MMO
>gameplay

...

I watch netflix

>every single quest must force you into group activity

Thanks lads.

>a year+ off
Half a year. We only have one tier left.

They can't waste their FFXV CGI movie budget on animating more than two characters in an FFXIV cutscene now.

Aren't they everywhere anyway?

If you're lucky.

On CHAOS? Perhaps, but most of them currently infest Odin and Ragnarok. Can't throw a stone without hitting one.

>The entire building is instances

no no no no no no please don't let this be true

All of the confines will be taken away if there isn't at least a lobby where you can interact with others. Hallways would be a much appreciated bonus

Still waiting for the room with the non shit races.

>no no no no no no please don't let this be true

Sorry, user. It's true.

Boo hoo evil devs going on vacations, why don't you shut the fuck up and just don't play the game and don't go into threads about it? Fuck.

There's a lobbyroom you can hang out in
the actual apartments are instanced though

>Why play a Final Fantasy game for story

Discard yourself

Woo, you sure are getting defensive about your dead game. Don't be mad at me that FFXIV is just a vessel for FFXV's funding.

I'm almost positive they already confirmed in one of the interviews there's a shared common area per 90 apartments.

dawg y r u so mad tho

Sorry bud, the key word there was MMO. There are a hundred million games that do stories better than MMOs.

they share armor though. I am talking about some special class of armor that only for example: samurai or red mage can wear

What's there to interact? Do you sit in hotel lobbies as well and bother people? Get real

>tail armor
it was so fucking cute

Just make red mage wear tank gear and make their class specific gear highlight that they're a mage. Red mages wearing tank gear wouldn't be a jump in logic since one of their major aspects is being able to wear heavy armor

>one of their major aspects is being able to wear heavy armor
Since fucking when

I won't get started on the shit flinging about which role red mage and samurai will be

forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/304451-Roles-for-Samurai-Red-Mage-Dancer

Since he made it up just now so that way they could be tanks
