The Lifestream - Free Company (An FFXIV Thread)

[Joe]

Wednesday is the only day I'm not working late and will be available completely. Judging by the time Yop usually signs off, I don't know if I'll otherwise be synced if I'm working late.

 

[Cthulhu]

Welp, tonight I got to level 50, got my blue chest piece, got to 3rd rank in the grand company (although the gear I can get from there isn't all that great ATM, primary weapon is just a little better than the thing I got in Aurum Vale (thanks Marcus <3)), annd stuff. I'll get cracking on the main quest again tomorrow,

 

[Lex]

We need to arrange the Castrum and Prae runs then! Who's free tomorrow?

That whole party was awesome, I do like it when you get a good group of people who you can laugh and joke on with rather than be pissy and moan when you fuck up or wipe.

Glad I could be of service, makes a change from grinding away at my books or farming poetics

 

[Cait Sith]

Awesome! I'll log in at some point tonight.

Wednesday I'm free all day.
Tomorrow I'm on a 14-hour shift.

 

[Cthulhu]

Ehh, still haven't finished the main quest (will get to that tonight) so I probably haven't unlocked those things yet . There is a level 50 dungeon there I haven't done yet though, idk what it's called anymore because it was locked

 

[Marcus]

I love running Syrcus Tower three times and getting zero luck in rolls for sands... still gathering poetics and soldiery tomes so I suppose that amounts to something, right?

the sooner I get these books done the better for my relic weapon, I've seena few DRGs with their Zodiac weapon and my god it's beautiful.

The two level 50 main story things are Castrum Meridianum and Praetorium, these are the two things we're talking about doing with you.

If you do them normally in the duty finder you'll get groups who are speedrunning them and will either shout at you for not skipping the cutscenes or they'll ignore you and you won't get to fight any of the bosses

 

[Lex]

Yop is queuing for this now people, I told him to withdraw so we can do it together. If people are online now cool, if not get online... now.

 

[Knuxson]

I won't be on for another 5-6 hours, unfortunately. I know that is pretty late for you guys. I'm in the U.S., so I won't be off work for a few hours. I also am going to visit my grandfather in the hospital right after work. Did you guys already run it?

 

[Joe]

Home in two hours myself

 

[Cthulhu]

I've done all the things, \o/. Lex and another six mostly sportive dudes (except that one dps dude that was like 'kick me plz no time' at the end, but ehh). One of them gave me a sword I'll need for the relic weapon and a sizeable donation of monies, too, <3.

I am glad it went well. Also, Joe, are you the Raya cat person that is in the FC? I thought that was a new person, but I don't see your character's name in the FC member list. I am assuming you used a Fantasia and name change.

Yes this. Immah go edit that now, thanks for reminding me.

Also congorats Yop!

 

[Drax]

I try to hook up when I can, but I've had schedule changes too.

I have been working through Atmas, but I think there's a cap after getting 2 a day, because it takes way too much time after that. 6/12 so far.

 

[Cthulhu]

There's a free weekend coming up, for those that don't have an active subscription atm,

 

[Lex]

OK guys here are some screens (I didn't get rid of my HUD so apologies for that )

Spoiler: Here's i110 Dragoon

Spoiler: Here's i100 Warrior

Spoiler: Here's me as a DRG on my White Mage pony outside the house (ish)

Spoiler: Here's the team that got Yop through the final main story fight

Spoiler: Here's me having a convo with Joe while I sit in a hard to reach spot in Mor Dhona

I have hundreds of screens I'm just super lazy

On chrome, right click open image in new tab for full size.

EDIT: Got my Warrior to 50 tonight, instant i100 due to the gear I had waiting. SO EXCITING!!!!!

 

[ForceStealer]

Jealous.....

 

[Marcus]

Now that our Yopness is onto post game content, I say we all start doing more things as a FC to both help Yop and others (mainly myself) who are falling behind, namely through raids and other dungeons. This weekend is free so there is no excuse for those who don't have a subscription to jump in and have some fun

 

[Ami]

I'm up for this weekend since it's free and all. Depending how I feel after this, I'll condemn myself by being addicted to this game again purchase a 60 day time card.

 

[Cthulhu]

Moar pictures from that thing:

Spoiler: Catching up to the rest of the group after watching a cutscene. They started a disco

Spoiler: Group picture near the final boss

How do you screenshot without UI btw?

 

[Drax]

On ps4/3, it is L1+select to turn off the hubs. Not sure what it is on PC.

 

[Joe]

On PC it is clicking the middle-mouse button, by default.

 

[Cthulhu]

I have middle-mouse set to auto-run, it would be very confusing TBH if middle mouse hid the UI, . I'll look into the key bindings then.
