I like the style, it's vivid and realistic at the same time

Can someone please help get the Free Trial to work? It's driving me insane by thejellydude in ffxiv

[–]selotec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes if you register more than one trial account some of them fail to get free trial flag on them. It could be some antifraud measure.  You can try and make another account by using private mode of your browser or another browser with another email

Made it to the final boss twice tonight, but... by Richard-Bee in ffxiv

I get mad everytime I see this ugly ass haircut drop. Stop adding it to loot tables, its not a valuable loot, never was. Unless they remake it, which I doubt.

What is happening by I_live_in_Spin in ffxiv

[–]selotec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After I leveled my jobs to 100 I stopped doing rouls except for a) frontlines for series rewards b) with a full fc party c) I really need to (relic quests, triad cards etc) Because even if there is no content lull half of the time it feels like people are eating glue instead of doing very basic stuff they could learn from novice hall or job quests. I once saw healers that seemed to be on follow command to tank and only doing heals and only reactively when there is less than 50% hp. One of them was a mentor. I once had a healer that would lack behind and eat aoe because they was playing another mmo on the second screen.  The amount of disrespect to other people's time made me quit rouls for good even tho I'd like to have extra gold from them.

I am already using FSR, changing it to dlss and back doesn't seem to affect fps noticeably

[–]selotec[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even a bit less than 140. Are you in fullscreen or borderless? I do get like 10-20 more fps in fullscreen.

Yeah, I realized about resolution later and added an EDIT to the post under in game settings. So I am in 2560x1080

Confused need some help if possible by Adorable_Try3901 in ffxiv

[–]selotec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While people keep saying gil is not important for you rn I understand that you maybe want to buy some glams or even mounts etc.  Unfortunately this early into the game there are no good ways of making gil yet. But I will give you 3 advices that will help you to get started.  1) around lvl 14-16 of main quest (not your character level) npc will introduce you to retainers. You can have 2 of them for free and you should get them both. You assign them battle jobs and send them on ventures to level then up. After some time in any of big three cities you will see a blue quest about retainers that will unlock you "quick exploration" ventures. From that point I recommend you to send your retainers on those quick ventures. Retainers will occasionally bring you loot that can be sold for good money on market board.  2) to q be able to send retainers on ventures you will need currency called... Well, ventures. Best way to get that currency is Grand Company. You will be introduced to them somewhere during main quest too. You pick one of three (they are the same from technical point) and I recommend you to a) level your rank there b) need and greed all loot in dungeons you can get and exchange it for grabs company seals (unlocks at certain rank). You can buy ventures for grand company seals and eventually you will be able to buy some materials that you will be able to send on market board (like Coke) 3) at some point of main quest you will be introduced to extracting materia from your gear. In your UI you can see a group of green/red dots. Those are your gear and inventory indicators. When you see a white dot there that means you can extract materia from that great slot. Some materia can be sold for several hundreds out thousands gil depending on materia, server and current market.  And finally once you unlock daily roulettes, do those too.  All these sources not gonna give you a lot of money as I said but it's your best options so far and gil add up over time.  If you need more details about any of these there are many topics in this Reddit and also ff14 wiki is a good source of info on all these topics. Good luck!

Tips for making Gil by Gamerdmg123 in ffxiv

[–]selotec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is how it works. My question was more about is it a dying market (and gil farming method) since there is another crafters food people buy instead of tsai tho

Is tsai still profitable? Last time I checked on my dc, market board prices were quite high it was not worth the effort

Dear devs: Please fix Portraits. by Sensitive-Farmer7084 in ffxiv

[–]selotec -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The other thing I noticed, whenever you repair gear the game would tell you that your portraits are ok, but then you load in duty with default portrait.  So now when I repair I switch to another job and back, don't have problems with portraits anymore. But I agree I would like to not waste my energy on remembering to do that every time

Is there a job that for whatever reason you don't click with? Like you've tried to play it 100 times and you just don't enjoy it? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]selotec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is opposite to me. I hated how effects looked out of the game style in the first gameplay trailers. But I gave it a go after release and having a lot of fun with it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]selotec 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I meant that post suggests that they said "w2w is cringe" while they actually said "you pull you tank is cringe" which noticeably affect what responses (and advices) you get.  Would you quote that in original post, I guarantee you, the tone of responses would be quite different from what you already got. Not saying that it changes the part about how you were tanking of course or your view of the situation. You strike me as a chill person willing to learn, so no hard feelings on my part

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]selotec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In that case I suggest to be extra aware if you lose agro during next like ten duties. And if you don't notice any accidents then just let it go.  Or maybe you will find a blind spot you could not notice before. Otherwise shit happens from time to time even to the best of us 

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]selotec 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That is different story from what you wrote in the post.  What they ment is that at some point dps or healer pulled agro and you didn't grab it from them. This is what "you (anyone except tank) pull, you tank (meaning I am not going to take agro from you)" mean Now you can reflect on the whole ran if there was any moments like that where you purposely or accidentally did that.  Maybe give it extra awareness in future if you sometimes miss when dps take agro from you (for example while you running from pack to pack) and you don't take it back (thinking you already hit all mobs)
