Ask the Devs! / A Beginner's Guide to Eorzea

[DoomCky]

What ever happen to these posts on lodestone. I looked forword to reading these casue back when they came out they where good help, and woudl direct players that asked about anything that had a post.

Devs should update and and start posting more of these helpful posts.

Ideas for new posts:
How to sign up for Grand Companies.

Skill up camps for parties. ( Long shot but would help with lazy players that dont know where to group up )

How to design macros. IE: Gear swaping, Equipping skills to action bar.

If anyone has anymore idea post them, lets get these very good posts back to help out new players.

Good evening, Anonymoose!

Next to voidkin, soulkin probably rates as one of the most difficult taxonomical terms to decipher. For the most part, the regnum (kingdom) and class names used in Eorzea are fairly straightforward:

Bloodborn
Seedkin: cactuars, funguars, roselings, etc.
Vilekin: chigoes, midges, yarzons, etc.
Wavekin: megalocrabs, orobons, slugs, etc.
Cloudkin: dodos, chocobos, vultures, etc.
Beastkin: Wolves, moles, rats, etc.
Scalekin: basilisks, raptors, drakes, etc.
Spoken: Ixal, kobolds, sylphs, the 5 races of Eorzea, etc.

Bloodless
Ashkin: skeletons, wights, ghosts, etc.
Soulkin: spriggans, coblyns, doblyns
Forgekin: juggernauts, mammets

Transcendents
Voidsent: ahriman, ogres, imps, etc.

Soulkin are called such by Eorzean scholars because it is believed that while these creatures once had a will of their own, they now find their souls bound to another object or being, and are essentially being controlled by the invasive secondary force.

Sorry about the brevity, but I hope that clears things up a bit!

Now, back to work I go!

If they started these posts back up players coudl easyer find info like this once fourms get filled and cant find with in them.
