Personal Housing Questions

[Yahavage]

tl;dr- Lack of info is stalling my progress

This. I'm holding off max melds on fisher and a retainer because I haven't had time to SB lately, and I don't wish to spend any money in the mean time. I've also not decortated my private chambers (bought for me as I put pretty much every single bit of gil I had into buying a medium FC house after ward 6 opened up) nor have I been able to do as much with the FC house as I'd have liked because I'm not spending money.
I have done bits and bobs but gathering mats takes time, and working 37hour weeks, coil time, plus stuff outside of the game... I just feel like I've had to hold on to every penny and hope for the best.

As I write this I'm suddenly very aware of how very 1stworldproblems this sounds xD

Seriously though, something would have been nice! Not really happy with the total lack of response on this topic :/

As it stands, if it's instanced housing we'll just have to acquire one under my character, most like, which would make actually enjoying the benefits of the house rather inconvenient for him.

Not necessarily. Fully instanced housing could still allow you to visit other people's houses, and do anything else there so long as you've been given permissions for it. That's if they set it up that way, of course, which just goes back to the main theme of this thread: Why aren't we hearing how this is set up?

I expect;

"Personal Housing has been pushed back to 2.4".

At this point, that might be the best answer we're likely to get. If it were a good, well planned-out system that SE was proud of, we'd have been hearing a lot more details about how it works. And if it comes down to either a crappy half-thought-out and badly implemented system or waiting a bit longer for a more viable one, I might rather wait. (Of course, that assumes it doesn't turn into waiting and then still getting a crappy half-assed system later. That would suck.)

They (we) play the game differently.

Duty Roulette, Challenge Log, various Levequests (crafting ones being optimal), Beast Tribe dailies, Treasure Maps, even Fishing if you have any idea what to go for (Leve and Provisioning Mission objectives). The game throws Gil at you if you know where to look, and all that is before you consider serious crafting.

And playing the market if you have good business sense.

I made 4 million just from spiritbinding. Considering you only have a few hundred k I suggest starting out with binding gathering/crafting gear. You'll get a steadier income. Once you build up a little nest egg, start grabbing DoW gear. It's more of a gamble but you can hit it big. On Balmung one tier 4 Savage Might can go for half a million.

You can always find spiritbind parties in Urth's gift near Quarrymill or ads in the party finder.

Still trying to find out what gear to bind since the green Ilvl 55 crafter stuff seems to take ages to bind. >.<

@Topic: If there is a patch in 2 days, how come there is no information out there? Is that normal for SE?

It's normal for the between patch patches, but I would have thought they'd say something in this thread by now. But preliminary patch notes I think are only "normal" for the major patches (i.e. 2.4).

Okay... weird.. Thanks!

Don't worry about the greens any gear that's ilvl 45+ works you can actually get it from the vendors in Revanant toll.
