It uses hotkeys on L2 and R2. It's perfect. Everyone I know who plays on PC prefers using a controller for it, even.

Stu 06-09-2014 10:01 PM

As in ... the menu system it works on to use attacks is all instant on those two buttons. Hold R2, swipe right for whatever you assigned there etc. I've never experienced button congestion thus far.

Go on Cerberus server if you get it!

I like the 2 second global cooldown on actions too, some MMO people say that it makes combat slower, but I find it better since you don't have to spam buttons.

Scarlett. 16-09-2014 01:38 PM

The new patch is out, it adds a few new quests, along with Personal Housing, patch notes here:

Crazy how nice Revenant's Toll looks now, hard to belive it used to be a dirt road running through some tents.

Apparently we might be getting a lot of info tomorrow.

Scarlett. 19-09-2014 09:19 PM

Yeah, its the live letter apparently, I'm so hoping the tease something from the expansion too, just a name/logo would be epic, lol.

Here's the Shiva boss

They're adding Sastasha (Hard Mode), The Sunken Temple of Qarn (Hard Mode) and a new dungeon called "Snowcloak"

Not to mention the biggest 2.4 update

Also, the Final Coil of Bahamut will be opening.

Snowcloak will be a dungeon located in the ice wall in Coerthas.

Rogue wont be a starting class, but you can learn it from level 10.

The "Eternal Bond" system will be added in 2.45, and will unlock a special chocobo.

Lower level dungeons may become possible to solo.

I finished the story last night and I'm now a Level 50 WHM and BLM. I'm trying to do the Relic Weapon quest at the moment but I can't find the WHM weapon in O'Ghommoro.

Scarlett. 24-09-2014 03:02 PM

The relic weapon quest goes on for a long while, I've only just got my Animus weapon.

It's worth saving up myth tomes to get higher level armour from Rowena's store by the entrance to Revenant's Toll, its the stone stall in this pic

The main story improves after the ending of the 2.0 main scenario too, though "A Realm Awoken" (2.1) isn't as good as "Through the Maelstrom" (2.2) and "Defenders of Eorzea" (2.3). 2.1's main story makes you do some old content, where as the others don't lol.

Scarlett. 27-09-2014 01:00 AM

I'm working on my Novus relic weapon now, basically you infuse a hell of a lot of materia onto a scroll, and to do so, you need Alexandrite which you can get from daily treasure maps.

Tom4784 27-09-2014 01:21 AM

I got my Relic Weapon and I've started on the Stardust Rod now. I've also used my Fantasia potion.

I quite like being a Mi'Qote but I'm a Lalafell at heart so I'll go back to being one eventually.

Scarlett. 27-09-2014 01:42 AM

I think I'm gonna remain an Elezen myself, lol. Looking forward to being able to get some new armour in 2.4, as my current robes look a little odd.

Scarlett. 27-09-2014 11:39 AM

It's been insane to see Revenant's Toll grow from this

http://i.imgur.com/6u3GQZhl.png

to this

You wouldn't even think it's the place, the only thing that looks the same is the wall and the gateway.

Scarlett. 30-09-2014 01:04 AM

My entry was one of the winners in the Moonfire Faire screenshot contest!

:D

Tom4784 30-09-2014 10:14 AM

Ah, did you win anything nice?

Scarlett. 30-09-2014 02:22 PM

The prizes are a Mandragona choker, and some unique fireworks, I'll post pics when I get them :D

Tom4784 01-10-2014 12:43 AM

Ah cool. Managed to get my BLM Relic now. I want to get Scholar to Level 50 and get that relic and then I'll get started on the Zeniths I think.

Scarlett. 01-10-2014 12:49 AM

If I recall, the zenith is pretty easy, getting the atma is hard, lol.

Scarlett. 01-10-2014 01:28 AM

Just as a general reminder, the free update from PS3 to PS4 ends at the end of December, after that, you wont be able to upgrade for free.

Tom4784 01-10-2014 02:10 AM

Might have to look into that.

Scarlett. 06-10-2014 07:38 PM

Rogues!
