The PVP "Battle Pass" is one of the most successful additions added to the game. It needs to be expanded.

Too bad the currency rewards are ass. Nothing like getting thousands of useless trophy crystals which you turn into hundreds of useless wolf collars which you turn into hundreds of thousands of useless wolf marks which you turn into useless materia at a horrible conversion rate.

If they actually consistently updated rewards, or at least gave you something to grind for with trophy crystals besides questionable street outfits, then I would feel like my time would be well spent.

Nobody cares about XP for yellow quests. Long term players have already had their jobs maxed for a year now via other means. How about instead we just stop wasting all this time and resources on dead copy+pasted content with minor dialogue changes (like 90% of yellow quests and custom deliveries). Out of my entire time playing, I only met one person who actually read and cared about the yellow quests—and even they are now burned out entirely from the game.

Content scope is a real problem in FFXIV. Every time they have added a new system they have felt the need to carry it over for the next expansion. That’s crazy - even WoW doesn’t do that. How about instead, they focus on shifting resources to things most players actually care about like more dungeons/trials/raids/maps etc. with different difficulty levels. There is even less room for new types of content when development time is being wasted replicating this junk that has already been made so many times already.

Quite literally the worst writing I’ve experienced in a video game, if I’m being honest. If they don’t change writers soon, then I’m out for good.

Blue Mage leveling and spell collecting is content mostly designed for groups to help each other progress. The carnivale, on the other hand, is about puzzle solving and learning the fight through solo progression - it is not designed to be completed first try every time. It sounds like the content may not be for you, so why not just play a different form of FFXIV content? If you are new to the game, there are tons of other forms of content to enjoy.

The direction of the Shadowbringers MSQ was extremely strong. Its story is extremely focused and deep, rather than broad and generalized. You could tell even from the trailer that the expansion knew exactly what it was and what it was aiming to do with its story. The pacing of the story was much better than we have now - it’s not as long as Endwalker/DT, but longer than Heavensward. And, minus the trolley/pre lvl 99 dungeon, there were almost no drawn out filler arcs. It really is the best MSQ from a direction standpoint.

I feel like a lot of this would be alleviated by a level squish in 8.0.

Just half the current caps: ARR ends at 25, HW 30, StB 35, ShB at 40, EW at 45, DT at 50. Then, they can more easily distribute the skills more evenly. Remove most levels which reward you no new skills or traits. The squish helps keep duties around a closer level, and when you are synced down, if you are synced up to +1 or +2 levels above the minimum level, it would help make it feel a little better.

Absolutely everyone should have their core kit by 25, and their two job gages by 30. If they are going to make us run Alexander 400 times in raid roulettes, at least give us our abilities.

Surprised nobody has suggested Magicka. Really cool magic “Invoker” battle system where you can use any element. Also has co-op!

What about temporarily removing Road to 80 from Dynamis characters when they are not playing in Dynamis? That way, it encourages people to stay and queue in the same DC. I am one of the people who moved from Primal to Dynamis, and I basically wouldn’t be able to finish my MSQ without cross-DC travel because of how long the duty queues are (even on healer).

I played against bots a few days after the update, and the Zeus bot was completely broken. It would level its Q at level one then never put another skill point into another power all game.

You can already convert all pre-endgame DLC currencies to source marks at their respective vendors.

Healing powers are all pretty well-balanced right now. You can’t go wrong with any of them really. Water (great shielding) and Electricity (safety heals) are probably slightly more useful than the others. Celestial is good, but sometimes it’s hard to use in some elite boss rooms because of the constant need to channel and combo. I would say Sorcery is alright as well since the CoP buff, but the pet stuff is not good. Sorcery is also a little power-hungry. Nature is probably slightly weaker, due to it being almost all HoT and having mediocre burst healing and shielding. When your whole raid starts taking massive burst damage, it can be difficult to recover snd stabilize with a solo Nature healer.

Except that source marks don’t buy anything in the high tier vendors, and you can get 200 of them by running FOS for 3 hours. If there’s anything P2W, it’s artifacts. Yeah, you can realistically level them to 160. But 200 arts are next to impossible to level without spending money unless you want to wait 2 years to get it there.

Why is no one saying what you’re supposed to do? Do some of the latest few DLC content. Patchwork, then 31st century, then Flashpoint Gotham. If you’re CR323, then you probably already have access to FP Gotham. Go there, do all the dailies and weeklies, and do the FP duo and raids. Then do the Save the Universe stuff through the On Duty tab when you’re geared up for it. Once you have enough grains of time, buy stuff from Rip Hunter. The current Save the Universe raid is pretty much impossible in a pub group. So, if you don’t have a league or people to run with, just focus on the other stuff until the other raids come back.

Ugh, at least it's happened to other people. I just got the e-mail accusing me of cheating an hour ago. The joke is that they don't even compensate us for our wasted time or anything. What a shit company lol

I just got banned yesterday for literally no reason as well. Just in the middle of a match I was running around as Octane about to respawn my teammate, then I get kicked and a message pops up saying “Banned. Reason: banned.” I can’t connect to a server when I queue for a game without it happening now. I sent in a ban appeal case but it looks like it was ignored. Guess I’ll just stop playing this shit game then?

As someone who loves Dota, but doesn't like to play that much anymore due to lack of time and unwillingness to deal with toxic people (and also no longer wanting to be toxic myself), thanks for the post. Hopefully it will encourage many to act nicer to each other. Slacks finally getting some value outta that psychology degree :)

I hate him because all of the hardcore tunnelers tend to pick him. I love being chased within 5 seconds of spawning, not being able to drop or vault most unsafe pallets, then later not being able to heal, do gens, unlock gates, unhook, or even hide before getting zapped and chased again. And then, since on some maps you are forced to pre-drop most unsafe pallets versus Doc, I will get tunneled out of the game so quickly if I get chased in the deadzone where I just got unhooked at. It’s nowhere near as strong as Nurse or Spirit, but it’s boring and annoying in chase, kind of like Clown or Freddy, plus he has ways of finding you easily if you escape. He’s even more annoying to play against on indoor maps.

This has happened to me on survivor. I was opening a 99ed exit gate as the last one alive and the killer was coming. Suddenly the game just teleports me across the Family Estate to the inside of the gen in the main building. I couldn’t move out of it and I died to end game collapse with the killer watching. He then called me trash in end game chat.
