The live letter was fun. Some people running dungeons at the time it was broadcasting did notice something of a lapse of concentration in DF people XD

Any of you guys interested in City building game? http://i.imgur.com/aezPr.gif -
10-20-2013, 08:17 PMValanIt's your project? It's like "Emperor The rise of the middle kingdom"Quote:

I have been playing with unity3d recently myself, not for a civ type game, but just for general purpose 3d simulations.. Well. I say recently. I haven't touched it since I got into Beta 3. haha :p -
10-20-2013, 09:13 PMTherefAt the current state, yeah it just looks like another city building game with different settings (Indonesia), Majapahit kingdom. Hopefully when the multiplayer stuffs is done it would make some people interestedQuote:

I don't think I can move her again during the free period, assuming it even let me move to a NA server. Maybe they should show the region in the transfer list.
Though I clearly should pay more attention to which world is which. :rolleyes:
On the plus side, I might still run into other people from around here who are on the JP side. :)
On the downside. Still laaaaaaag. :( -

You need to wait at least 3 days until you can use the world transfer again. I have several alts on the same server under one accouni and wanted to "spread out". So I speak from experience :P
Btw, hi all. Long time lurker but so far to shy to post.
Love this thread for it's positive and funny atmosphere.

10-21-2013, 08:56 AMRivienneThose two are really hard to get down as a group especially in DF. Keep at it!Quote:

I don't entirely know why, but I think many Tanks and DPS seem really bad at judging where the fault is the healer and where it isn't.
BTW, Which boss did you have trouble with in Qarn? In my experience with a good team, I only have problems on the last boss. And mainly because heal, now wait, move laser! heal, laser! wrong way! aaaaaah. ;)
Mind you I still fail 50% of the time, because teams don't quite seem to gel on one boss or the other. But once everybody knows the way things work, the first boss is easy, and the second boss can be a bit stressful if you get stunned, but mostly easy.
Also if your problem on Cutter's Cry was the first boss, (which in my own experience is the hardest as healer) try the kite approach. Only way that works for me thus far. As soon as adds hit, heal the tank with cure 2, throw a regen on him, which will guarantee every ad comes after you, and then run to the outside ring, and let the ads chase you. Seriously. DPS + tank go all out on the princess, LB if possible, and you just run around the room. Doing nothing. If you have a tank that can keep hate, and stay alive for that long, it works every time. Worst case you run through the room and throw another regen on the tank at some point. For second boss, it is pretty basic, avoid center of room, avoid snake, heal. Watch out for the times the tank keeps running out of range though, cause they always do.
EDIT:
.... And now I feel crappy for similar reasons too. Trying to level one of my healers, and stuck on DF'ing Garuda Story Mode. I am trying to be nice, I really am.. I don't mind trying until the end, or everybody gets it. I know how hard it is to get a fight down. But... I can't carry an entire team at that level..... sigh. anyway. I should go back to archer. Everybody likes those right? Low responsibilities, high in demand. Less chance of being blamed for every failure..... -
10-21-2013, 09:41 AMKeith_DragoonOur servers are linked in DF still so i could try VERY hard to queue up and do the dungeon with you. However,you should come to Balmung(not going to give up) so i can join you in your adventure and swat away all the meanies!Quote:

I'm guessing they presumed that I would know to do that on that battle and so they never bothered to explain it to me, which is why they were so irate with me. This amuses me, because I am always very clear when I am new to something. I also have no issue admitting where I error. I just like to you know, be treated like a human being. ^_^ He he.
Thanks for the support, love. :) -
10-21-2013, 03:47 PMWolfwood_BelmirWell Anima Mundi is Latin, and speaking Latin is the fastest way to be burned as a witch- I mean, sound like a magician :PQuote:

Anima - soul, spirit

Correct?
I love etymology (way too much)
I break down names I find in-game a lot (Look, this post is certifiably FFXIV-related). :rolleyes:
The biggest compliment I give anyone in-game is, "I like your name". True fact.
/ffxiv
EDIT:
Handy dandy etymonline website:
"1670s, Medieval Latin, literally "soul of the world;" used by Abelard to render Greek psyche tou kosmou."
EDIT 2:
OH right! THAT Anima Mundi. I was researching that whole idea the other day for a plotline. Quite right. Fancy. You really are clever. ^_^ -
10-21-2013, 04:41 PMWolfwood_Belmir
Lol, no worries. Name talk is always FFXIV related :P
And yup, correct. I really love the Anima Mundi name and whole school of thought surrounding it. (surprisingly since I'm not even slightly relegious ^^; )
Reminds me of the Lifestream too ^_^
I've noticed I'm more picky with names these days then ever before. Suddenly 'Yellow Chicken' isn't a good enough Chocobo name for me ^^; (went with 'emeritus' I think. Neglected him a bit lately >_> )
But whenever I'm stuck for names, I just go here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Latin_phrases :P lol
I'm also positive that no matter what you say, as long as you say it in latin it'll sound super philosophical.
Kinda like, "I'm not running away, it's ex abundanti cautela" :P
Latin may be worse for me then Tvtropes. Looking this stuff up kills all my free time for the night ^^; -
10-21-2013, 06:34 PMKeith_Dragoon
I like you too, come to Balmung aswell
-
10-21-2013, 08:32 PMRivienne
If Balmung is the place to be, clearly I will have to create one of my future characters there. Maybe when I finally get around to making a Highlander, or perhaps a Roe since I have a nice base model already. :)
I feel like she should be a summoner. Maybe a Lancer, but then again, that end game armor..... :rolleyes:
Yay for having 40 characters though. One per world, right? oh wait, there are 60+ worlds? Hmm. Maybe 2 per NA-world then. ;) -

Minions and Mounts are kinda interesting.
I have a Minion and Mount for each of my most common jobs.
Botanist: Minion is Kidragora, Mount is Legacy Chocobo
Fisher: Minion is Tiny Turtle, Mount is Goobbue
SMN: Minion is Bite Sized Pudding Mount is Unicorn
WAR: Minion is Wind up Dalamud Mount is GC choco (Rolanberry)
WHM: Minion is Cait Sith Doll Mount is Ahriman -
10-22-2013, 01:20 AMbAss_ackwards
I want those minions! :D
-
10-22-2013, 01:26 AMRivienne
Not so much interested in those minions, but if we get unique race animations and riding music, I wouldn't mind that mount. Especially for my lala.
-
10-22-2013, 01:48 AMHestern_NesternI named my chocobo Withie, a slight modification of the word withy, which is a type of branch belonging to the willow. I'm Gridanian so I wanted a feeling of nature. :oQuote:

Predictions on the up coming barber shop - do you think they will have new hair styles? Or just be for changing the current ones upon implementation and future updates will bring new styles?
http://s3.mmoguildsites.com/s3/galle...jpg?1376971691 -
10-22-2013, 03:10 AMRivienne
I thought they said in one of the live letters that it will contain new styles,, but I could just be remembering it because I want it. ;)
While some of my characters are unlikely to change style often, I would like to be able to try out new styles every 3 weeks to 3 months depending.
But yeah, you know the biggest thing I would like to see is something I think is less likely, and that is less of a "barbershop" approach to hair and more "daily" styles within a given family. So based on what you pick you can change at whim to different hair updo. Buns, pontail, braids etc. Things that can be done without going to a barbershop. You couldn't make your hair longer/short, but each style/length would have variations you could pick. Some would be more limited of course, but I think it would make for a more fluid and immersive world. Just the little details. -
