FFXIV 2015 Census Slides

Not many have entered Alex Savage.

Well, duh. It's because people who were in raid groups within the 3 Coils of Bahamut, are going to stay with each other in Alexander. In so doing, people who haven't been able to clear all the Bahamut Coils, like myself, due to a lack of raid groups willing to give outsiders a chance to get the coils clear, are unwilling to even attempt Alexander because if we can't get into raid groups for the Bahamut Coils, what makes you think we will even get a chance at Alexander?

Why are so many people popping Stale Bubbles?

You don't have to do Coil to do Alexander. People don't want to do Coil right now because it's old content and there's still the shiny new content that is Alexander (Savage). I personally don't mind doing most of coil, it's fun to me. I do know a raid group who did continue their Coil raiding until they cleared T13 even after Alexander (Savage) was released.

I find it to be the Guildhest that shows up most often alongside the turtle one in Guildhest Roulette. Also there's like 20 of them that spawn in a single Guildhest.

I'd like to see percentage of people who didn't have a tank class before and are on DRK

On another note, I would like to know how many water sprites we killed in the last year for materia before Heavensward.

The average level of people job is really low for how long the game has been out. Must be way too many people that level one job and that is it...wow....just wow.

I'd assume its because FFXIV:ARR targets a casual audience for the most part. Their time is a lot more limited. Also, there is the inventory issues that can shut down some long term players. The character I have in my portrait isn't my first character. I made this one to try escaping my inventory issues on my main.

I can sympathize. Back in 2.1 I barely made it through Turn 5 and that was due to a tedious alliance of benched backup players between several raid teams. There aren't as many people willing to take up leadership positions because of the more casual nature of the game.

It doesnt say how they calculate that. Do they take the average of all classes a person has unlocked? Or do not unlocked classes count as lvl 1 and lower the average? I'd probably go with the first one. Seeing how many people unlock classes, especially crafters, im not suprised that the average isnt even half of the max level.

And think of it - if you got one level 60 and unlocked all crafters/gatherers (and lets assume you got two other classes to 40 for your cross class abilities) it puts your average at level 10,78 - and i know many people that never even bothered to level crafters past level 5 and only got one 60...

Most interesting to me is the rare achievements slide. Only 1 person has won both the 1,000,000 and 500,000 MGP from mini cactpot. That means the second luckiest person has won less than half compared to this one guy? Did he won 10k everyday for weeks or something? Is it even possible to be this lucky?

It's probably being spammed by the BLM gold farm parties for whatever reason.
