    LL, Drowning Wench, "What a Pirate Wants" --Txt-- Baderon's Inconsistent Word "cos"

    When the player is in the Drowning Wench in Limsa Lominsa and speaks to Baderon about the "What a Pirate Wants" sidequest, the following text appears in part:

    "
    ye. Name o' the place is
    Shposhae, but don't ask me to
    spell it fer ye, cos I can 'ardly
    say it, let alone fathom 'ow one
    might commit the bastard to
    parchment.
    "

    This is incorrect because the abbreviation of "because" is spelled as "'cause" throughout the rest of the in-game text. It is believed that Baderon himself uses "'cause" elsewhere. Additionally, these words are pronounced exactly the same way, negating the need to use "cos" altogether.

    Please fix this issue by replacing "cos" with "'cause".

    The corrected text would read as follows:

    "
    ye. Name o' the place is
    Shposhae, but don't ask me to
    spell it fer ye, 'cause I can 'ardly
    say it, let alone fathom 'ow one
    might commit the bastard to
    parchment.
    "

    I've missed you, Baderon.

    This took me a little bit to figure out, too. I believe it depends on what city-state you started in. If it's Limsa, you go to Baderon. If Gridania, you go to Miounne. If Ul'dah, go to Momodi.

    Kinda sucks, I'd love to have seen the text for all of them. ...Hope it's bug free!

    I have the other transcripts, if you want them. I've been playing XIV vicariously through the wiki since I don't have enough free time to build up the craft/materia repertoire necessary to 'be someone' in-game.

    I'd love the other transcripts, but I'd need to know that they're copied directly from the game. If I can't check the text (because I don't know the validity of it), then it's kinda worthless to me.

    And yes, that's actually all I care about =P

    When you say "copied directly from the game," do you mean you need a guarantee that the game is programmed to say exactly what is present, or that you need it specifically from a chat log?

    To be necessarily vague, I can promise you that my transcripts are copied directly from the game, but cannot guarantee they were not copied from my client's chat log.

    It was funny - Momodi was talking to me as if I'd never left Ul'dah.

    The file has been fixed and the updated text should make it into a coming patch.
    Thanks again for the find, Merm!
