How are you guys preparing for the expansion?

Snip.

I'm not sure, I don't work for Square so I can't vouch for them. I highly doubt the maint will reset your Quests, as everyone has different amount of quests completed and open. I'd be pretty mad if I was a newer player working on my Thyrus and I was killing mobs and after this giant maint I suddenly didn't have that quest or my main story quest, I'd be pretty angry. XD

I think the only way they'd reset the log is if they added new things to it, but if they did reset it, then you wouldn't really lose much. So I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I've been listening to Dragonsong an awful lot, spending too much time on the FFXIV reddit and generally been daydreaming about the day early access starts. I'm also playing some other games I've not had the chance to play properly because once Heavensward comes out it will dominate my gaming free time a little bit too much... :P

I'm a Ninja switching to Machinist, gonna use the EA period to level the new job from 30 to 50, then hit Ishgard proper with it come full release. My accessories are all i130 since NIN focuses on dex already, so I spent the past while buying the weathered i100 bard gear and making some pre-emptive level 50 machinist glamour. It'd be lame to not look the part in Ishgard while everyone's running around with all their cool new stuff.

Preparing in Game...

1) Gather for Ironwork Gun for Machinist.

2) Craft lvl 30 gear to start out with my Machinist since Mach will start out as lvl 30.


Preparing in Real Life...

1) manage my life.

2) try to stay sane with my life issues and time management clashing until the 19th.

3) Trying to survive the wait for the 19th.

last thing to prepare for HW......get a good sleep in before you start spamming the login button at 1am PST
(even though you already know maint. is scheduled to end at 2am)

I made sure to finish the Main Story Quest in preparation. That was the main thing. I also finished off the Hildibrand Quest.

Not drinking any caffeine, going to get home, turn on the PS4 so it does its download thing. Then sleep until its on.
