Translations (JP to English)

Reinhart - Is there any word on the JPN side from players on how poor the Miser's Mythril drop rate is?

Are you sure you didn't use google translate (and it failed, like it usually does) about something 50,000 Hamlet Points = Beastman Seal or something to that effect?

No one in my LS can find anything about that, or even close; the ones that can read jp.

I could have been wrong; but in this case please at this time mark today as the day I said it ^.~

Still nothing on Disciple of Magic, how infuriating...

interviews Japanese do not need a translator between each question, it takes time and therefore fewer questions can be asked because of this

So Yoshida not playing WOW? since he keep mentioning that WOW is modern standard for MMORPG, why he is playing hardcore on another game instead..

I m not playing WOW myself, but I think that if he is going to use his free time on one game to learn, he should learn it from the most popular one. I don't know the title he speak of at all. Is that popular?

He "use" to play UO

And he was a hardcore "Dark age of Camalot" PvP player ^^
I hope he can deliver a good FF XIV PvP with his experience.

Hardcore perma stun everyone till they're dead PvP.

He played wow before becoming director/producer here, now don't have time to do anything else :P
And he said it was an hardcore player of dark age of camelot, a very old mmo (prior of everquest 2 think) but still the best pvp experience

And he played UO that still remains the best mmorpg for ages (for contents at least).

Great interview and thanks to Reiny for the efforts as always. I'm very glad Yoshi-p knows so well how to make a mmorpg.

I love you, Yoshi-P <3

And rein for everything :p

another nice interview, thanks!

Anyone else seeing UO and having flashbacks to spamming "Under Observation"?

Logical fallacy alert!

Thanks for the translation Rein, Yoshi seems like a really cool guy, interviewer asked some hard questions which was good.

When it comes to Dark Ages of Camelot, from what I've heard they set the standards to what PVP is suppose to be, so it's only natural for that to be brought up in a convo about pvp. I've never played the game myself but I have heard how others love the PVP from that game and they have yet to find a game that can do it better then that. Seeing as Yoshida is a fan of that game and it's pvp, it may give hope for those looking forward to a good PVP to see how much is inspired through the Dark Ages of Camelot.

For example if you wanted to go to Dungeon A you can open up the contents finder tab and select dungeon A. From there you put your characters level and class/job you want to play and your language and from there once the class balance is set it will automatically start matching players. Also you will be automatically sent to the dungeon and upon clearing the dungeon you will automatically be sent back.

i'm concerned about this. It makes sense as to avoid needless running around the world... but ... at a certain point it gets to be too much.

I would have been, too. But then again, you have to visit it first in order to teleport to it. And to be honest, the novelty of walking there time and again wears off rather quickly. Same with starting any of the primal quests (hard mode).

it's a pratical issue too. If you're partying with people of other server, how could you walk to their entrace ? This is the reason why the game teleport you inside the istance and not outside

Hi Reinheart,

Thanks again for all your tireless efforts in translating the latest interviews. Much appreciated! :)

Reinheart as a token of my appreciation of all your hard work:

Small posts today.

http://goo.gl/ExNic - TiaTea asked if it's possible to bind a key to switch sorting method - Triairy agrees it would be useful to have something like that but with current version they can't make that possible and in 2.0 the inventory system is going to change so might not even needed in 2.0.

http://goo.gl/G1ZTO - Stormbird saying when you eat cheese it just shows message you at item without the additional info on how the food was that gives hint on how much of the stats you got from the food's effect. Triairy saying as mentioned in 1.21 patch notes if the food has multiple effects it will only show info from the first effect.

MiaEst also asked to have some type of display like HP bar for the fatigue for gathering to show how much more you can gather before it hits the fatigue. Triairy saying they have no plans to implement such feature in current version and that in 2.0 gathering will change greatly so once they can show more details on that will do then.

SEXY SUBLIGAR!

In the past they said if you're still half way through quests at time when we're transitioning to 2.0 all the quests will be rolled back and you will most likely need to retake them, Marge had question regarding what if this was for AF weapon quest?

I don't think I can clear the quest for AF weapon that was released in patch 1.22b
Will this also be rolled back if it's still not completed?

---

新生への引継ぎの際に、クエストの進行状況はロールバックされる見込みですが、クエスト「蘇る古の武器」に関しては、特別対応として進行状況も引き継ぐような対応を行いますので、ご自身のペースで攻略していただければと思います。
When transferring over to 2.0 the quests will be rolled back however for this particular quest for AF weapon will be considered special and we are addressing to be able to transfer over the current progress therefore please work on this quest at your own pace.

that mean they dont plan to change ._.

Well yeah it just takes time..it's not a difficult quest or anything xD. Glad they reaffirmed the rollback though, I'd rather do some of these quests in the new world anyway since it feels like it would fit better (like there will be blood on a new character.)

Yeah It's stupid, only the rich can get these weapons ( or people that have most jobs/classes to 50). This quest isn't even "fun" WHICH is the most important factor... having fun... this quest is the only quest I feel like kicking my computer >.>.

There's already like 3+ topics complaining about weapons so let's try and keep them there rather then starting them in this thread lol.

I not rich and i'm getting it done so i don't see the issue here i have 1 seal so far and i could have got more if i do more H.D. The wep itself it pretty easy just do spirtbond gear that you make yourself and you get the melds you need then farm everything else and make the wep.

Noting cost money if you farm it would just be a time sink and that the point of it. At least there better then the FFXI version where it was super rare to even see one person with a full upgrade relic.

Well, I'm not there to see your screen, so I guess I have to take your word for it then? :o

I leveled leatherworker to level 50 in a week and a half, while getting all 9 seals, its really not all that big of a deal quest wise. If you need points level your leatherworker. You can go farm raptors, they drop 2/3 of the items you need to make militia long boots, at that point if your botanist is level 35 or higher or you know someone whos botanist is that high make them go get you some resin and you are good to go. It is alot more accessible than people think, they just aren't willing to put the work into getting it.

But that kind of discussion doesn't really belong in this thread. I am wondering Rein, have you seen anyone on the jp side that has gotten past the misers mythril stage? Or are abyssmal drop rates halting the entire community from progressing at this point.

Im not rich either (literally have less then 75k gil) and I have enough mats for 2 base weapons and one seal already I have spent maybe 4 hours mining and have only done 5 hamlets and only 2 where 60K+ runs. I think the most crappy part is going to be getting the materia but as I farm more darksteel, iron, gold and astral rock for my ls ill just spirit bond gloves and belts for a chance to get some savage mights.

edit: sorry forgot this was the reinheart thread best have this discussion elsewhere.

Don't do this much... but since people were asking...

http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com...entry?e=382120

That blog post is saying clear raids under 15min with 5+ chest and it's 100% drop on the mythril needed for the AF weapon.
Shows pic of the person with 4 of them in inventory.

Hope that helps some... I would probably never reach this stage before 2.0 so useless info for me... /sigh

EDIT: the blog has update says 17min TA also confirmed 100% drop. -

EDIT 2: Further reading other people's blog posts it seems it's different loot pool when you do the regular 25min TA it wont give you the 100% guarantee drop from the chest. Hast to be 17 minutes or under. At least this is what I got for AV one....

Thanks for the update Reinhart. We'll test it out but I must say i'm suspicious of that blog.

So assuming (at least) multiple players were getting 100% drops, there's still no mention of the quest step after?

Remember: SE stated you can't complete the weapons yet, so no mention means they aren't done yet or there's simply no quest to be undertaken after this step yet..but it is worth a try, going to try it tomorrow with my JP LS and see, since this isn't the first time I heard of this but I usually don't listen to those theories yet because they're the same people I've played with who said fireworks will destroy the Twinkling Treant when it has infinite HP haha.

Lol I know I hated on people for commenting on here before when it should be discussed elsewhere... but REALLY SE? Under 17 minutes to get a good drop rate on for that? That's just promoting more class/job stacking and doesn't take much. I doubt they will ever learn... /le sigh

miyukiyamatan started a thread asking to see if the reps can confirm if the font can be changed in 2.0 UI.

Thanks for the feedback

文字やタイマーについては、ウィジェット毎に拡大・縮小ができるようになります。PC版で解像度の高いスクリーンであれば拡大、PS3版では画面に対するUIの比率が大きくなるため、縮小して使用するなどを想定しています。
Regarding the letter or timer you will be able to increase/decrease the size of each widget. For PC version people with higher resolution will increase, people with PS3 will probably have bigger UI because of the screen so imagining they will decrease.

1 つのウィジェット内でのアイコンやテキストのサイズだけ変更したいというご要望もあると思いますが、ウィジェット内のレイアウトが崩れてしまううえ、負荷 がかかるためにデフォルト設定では対応しない予定です。自分で細かく調整したいという方にはアドオンで対応してもらうことを想定しています。
I believe there are requests also for being able to change the text/icon size within a widget but doing this will break the layout within the UI and it will make the load heavier so we are not planning this for default. If you would like to make fine adjustments we are planning to have this addressed via add-on.

もちろん、βテストにおいて実際にテストしていただき、HPバーが見にくいのでもっと太くしてほしいなどレイアウトの調整に関して、声の大きいものについては対応を検討していきます。
Also at time of beta testing if you have requests at that time such as "Please make the HP bar thicker since it's hard to see" for these we will be addressing if many players bring up the issue.

Reinheart~! :D http://ff14fan.haru.gs/db/db_relic.php This site needs your attention :)

Wanted to say thanks again Reinhart for the help. That's the second time you've helped the ENG community on this relic quest.
