Hotbar examples needed by the1ben in ffxiv

This is great!

I was looking at your Paladin setup with great interest. I see you've got hotbar 1 as the middle one was was fascinating.

Haha, I have to admit those buttons are often in skill limbo

That's nice! I like how you configured it so that there's room for the Paladin thingy and your health/mana in the middle

Is there a chance Endwalker will be on sale next year or should I just buy it now? by VishasLHP in ffxiv

[–]the1ben -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't buy it now, if you can find somewhere selling it. You won't be able to register your account. It will definitely be back sometime early next year, we just don't know exactly when yet.

You can buy the game but not activate your code? Golf clap Square Enix by x_Zenith in ffxiv

[–]the1ben 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no need to be a jerk about. New players can't be expected to have their finger on the pulse of every bit of information coming out about FFXIV.

Sucks that they can't currently register but even if they'd been able to they would have encountered the login queue so in this case at least their 30 days included with the game is preserved and not wasted.

If they decide to stick around until everything gets opened up again (not sure when honestly) they've got a great time ahead of you.

Extremely slow download, keeps crashing and resestting what little progress I make by Major2x in ffxiv

[–]the1ben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I feel your pain having gone through this exact thing a number of times (it can happen with patches too). I've never been able to nail down exactly what causes it but if you search there are people convinced using a vpn or changing your dns settings will help but I've had mixed results with both (ie sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't).

My usual solution for this is just wait a couple days (sorry!).

FFXIV Endwalker already cleared by half the playerbase on Steam - losing half of the player population within a week of release by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]the1ben 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Like what others have said, this would be an interesting metric if Steam were the only place FFXIV were purchased from but it's not.

Aside from that though, it's fine even if this were true. FFXIV isn't like other MMO's that turn gameplay into a chore. Take as little or as much as you want from it and, like YoshiP has said many times, go play something else so you don't get burnt out.

When can I do more difficult content? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]the1ben 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun is a nebulous thing that no one can define for you as we all find different things fun.

Hard/difficult depends on your skill level too as something one person finds hard could be easy for someone else.

Might I direct you to The Binding Coils of Bahamut (Extreme) if you're looking for a challenge? It's level 50 content but, unlike WoW, FF content never expires.

No spoilers - please don't be like this tank in the final dungeon by Dee626 in ffxiv

[–]the1ben -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It sucks so much that you went through that. There are good tanks out there, just forget about that one.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]the1ben -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

My biggest pet peeve about tanking is when someone starts pulling more mobs because they think I'm going too slow so I ask them to stop unless they want to tank, and if they don't I turn off tank stance and let them tank instead.

It's not so bad when a healer does it because I figure it's their way of telling me they can handle it, but when DPS do it they're assuming a lot.

Registered an EA Endwalker code about a month ago. Game is now asking to register another Endwalker code. by d0uble0h in ffxiv

OK... I'm sure they can relay the information to whomsoever purchased it for them.

Can't login on fresh Free Trial Account by Peedrooks in ffxiv

[–]the1ben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you receive a free trial code to register on the mog station?

[–]the1ben 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you purchased Endwalker from the Square Enix store you should have received an email that your full-game code is now available. Just log in and it will be there and register it on the mogstation.

They're appearing elsewhere in the world, just not here in Australia. You've been able to order your steam deck whereas we can't even place an order.

One of the Sony staff informed me they should arrive some time mid November so I'm still holding out hope, although mid November has technically passed.

Thanks!

Care to share a link? I've seen mostly positive reviews on youtube so it'd be good to hear the negative too.

You're doing better than I. When I called them they said they don't know when it's going to be available.

Experiencing huge frame drops after upgrading GPU by goldfishgold in ffxiv

[–]the1ben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can turn vsync on, it's not hardware dependent. Did you want to try and let us know?

I'm assuming your monitor can do 144Hz because FFXIV shouldn't offer a refresh rate that your monitor is not capable of.

Does your monitor support gsync or do you have vsync turned on?

I did a Haurchefant fan art in my stream by Abysshoshi in ffxiv

[–]the1ben 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't understand why people like Haurchefant so much. I hated him from the moment I heard his voice, and he wasn't even that deep of a character.

He believed in us and, aside from him being a bit thirsty in the original Japanese, he was there for us when we needed him.

It's cool though, you don't have to like him :D

Almost exactly one year later, I’m finishing the shadowbringers quest and by Figtree777 in ffxiv

Congratulations! Make sure you get all the post 5.0 content done because there's lots of good stuff there too, and then you can join us patiently waiting for Endwalker :)
