I was under the impression that the "countless relics" thing was over. Basically, you (re)start from a September patch.

Nope, the state of the game is back to November 1st, where you were and what they added recently remains. The only thing that doesn't remain is the finale events, Relics, boosted anima and near free repairs is staying.

There's 17 people logged in on my server right now.
I'm just on to take screenshots as I forgot before the servers went down, then I'm done with the game and never logging in again.

Terrible decision to bring the game back up. Focus every single resource they have on 2.0 until release.

My recommendation? Get 2.0 out sooner than April 2013 and let go of 1.0.

Maybe they have a bunch of staff they don't want to have nothing to do until 2.0 that can be working to monitor the current game. I am eager for the release too but I don't want them to over rush it. Besides, I think they took feedback from the user/player polls to make the decision to keep the servers up.

Hope no one trips over each other trying to get back onto the servers or anything...17 is a lot.

Honestly, I don't even understand why people want FFXIV up. What's the point really? I mean FFXIV 1.0 was fun and all but, the story's over, etc.

I could log in and just shout in each city there screwed >.>

It's kind of funny. With no pressure to make progress, we're actually doing silly things that are turning out to be pretty fun.

Tonight we beat a level 78 Creeping Ivy at the ruins by Lasthold.

Then with 6 people in the party we went to Dzemael and cleared every single monster (except for the unkillables) just for fun. We were wondering if we'd make it in time, but we completely cleared it with 20 minutes to spare.

That was actually the most fun we had in Dzemael in a long time. ^^

I'm sure this makes no sense to a lot of people... but it's just fun to be with friends I've known for a couple years now, and do stuff we'd never really done just for the heck of it.

I had fun too today! XD

Joined a JP shout party. Ends up doing Nael van Darnus Normal, and we totally rocked. XD
Then we tackle Ifrit Extreme, and we dropped like flies. Tried twice. lol
After that, we deal with Garuda. As I suspected, they also doing the BLM burn too. Seems for now that my double meld Electrum Scepter and Gridanian Shield fare better for this fight since I need MACC. :p
Finally got my 1st Garuda weapon: Garuda's Talon. XD

Too bad it's not gonna count since final save already over... ; ;

It looks like we're still gonna have more fun today, so I'm gonna neglect FF11 just for today. lol

Been playing since the revival of the servers and unfortunately balmung feels empty. It nice since I can play in a field with no lag, but none of my friends from my social lists are on. From the looks of it unless more people start logging on soon, the servers will go back down...

Btw, just realized this, but...

why still having Dalamud hovering in the sky? I want normal sun and weather back. XD

This is what happened when someone lazy to triple meld hat acc :rolleyes:

oh... I forgot to tell ya that before final save, I broke like dozens of double melds attempts and I'm close to broke now. :p

and i also forgot to mention that, this is what happened when people just get "free" relic... no effort, complain only. So they don't know how to match their gear properly and say relic suck. good job :)

Same reasoning as, why play in a world that has already been ravaged by bahamut, with you being tele'd into limbo.

is it possible to jump to 50 since the progress doesn't carry over to v2.0?

Ill just be taking some picture for memories about it for myself.

hahaha... :p

fyi, before final save, I was already in A Relic Reborn aiming for that Stardust Rod. Plus, I already reviewed the stats on Stardust Rod (it has released for long time remember? :p ). And somehow this makes me see that you kinda review relic as something ultimate weapon-ish.

Unfortunately, I never did since what I enjoyed is not the prize, but each success I made with the progress. Having a relic is like having a trophy, like when you win the game, which commonly regarded as a display only.

As of now, I'm playing FFXI for a month, and already I've seen what relic does there too. Still, I want to go after it after I'm developed enough for the challenge.

And sadly, you didn't even understand for just a single line that I posted earlier. ;D

And IF you do have the said relic, and IF you do prepared for it gear-wise, then congratulation. But you do know how RNG deals with here right? (that is if you DO know) So excuse me if I'm somewhat less unfortunate with RNG. :p

BTW, before final save, I have done about 250ish hamlet win runs and got almost all drops excluding provisional stuff since I only do it once to get my last seal. So... still no effort huh? :p

And again... if you're already way past that then congratulation again. Just remember there's still some ppl who want to enjoy it more leisurely than you do.

Case closed! lol

read again your own post and my point. I don't care your progress 250 or 1000 hamlets run or another story of yours. You just don't know how to pull out the true capabilities of the relic..

pardon, it's you or me?

I'm talking about your opinion about "relic kinda suck", since you didn't know how useful relic for currect content. Glad to hear that you enjoying the game, so do i :o

typical Indonesian player ... /sulk

children children come on o_o its just a game... and a weapon.. jeeez o____O

Yes. Guess someone just taking games way too seriously. And there's matter of age difference I sometimes forgot... ;D

And someone did seems forgot about the proven pic I posted along with that (the one holding a Talon). Although I do admit I'm a bit harsh with that sentence "she" pointed out so "nicely". For that, I'm gonna rectify my original post.

Didn't know someone can be so dictated... and a bit racist. But I guess that's what to be expected from beginning. :p

logged in yesterday to 10 people on my server o.O;;
