This. Filters don't work half the time.
Find myself screaming at the carbuncle or the ifrit someone has out. Why is that so high up in priority on selection?
Good! 3/3 on the PS3 targeting complaint!
It's extremely frustrating when surrounded by mass chaos too. LOL! Thumbing through basically six or seven people/pets before locking-in is just plain frustrating.

Doesn't work half the time while engaged neither. Especially when there's a massive amount of people on your screen... or COMPANIONS

I finished up XIV last week and while I loved everything from Garuda to the credits, I can't help but feel like I was playing a single-player game half the time.
Healing wasn't too bad for me, barring the instances where some tanks were just so poorly geared that no amount of fairy/physick could manage to keep them alive. Qarn, Dzamael Darkhold and Cutter's Cry were fun. I hate oneshot mechanics though, it's unbelievably cheap that one missed dodge can mean instantly wiping the group. -_-
Endgame just looks like a huge grind to me with running the same dungeons ad infinitum for pretty vanilla stat gear. Not interested in that for now.

Thank you! I've been calling them rifts! Same difference really.
And one of the reasons I became disinterested.

Fates aren't all that bad... pretty quick exp though you can still work up traditional parties...

Dunno about your server but on Excalibur FATEs were:
Show up, spam AOE against invisible mobs and hope to get a Gold. No one seems interested in normal EXP parties when you can just push one button to win. That's if the lights from particle effects didn't give you a seizure. XD
And if you dared touched those Lambs during Dark Designs...

Fates can get like that in Ishard territory but you don't see it much like that anywhere else... I imagine retro parties are only really started by people that know eachother... that or just go dungeon diving...

You get different medals for the fates and that makes your xp vary.
Personally, I hate them. I have extreme motion sickness right now and running from place to place and targeting the mobs causes me nausea.
Mil and I have been talking about doing a traditional party. Killing IT's are really easy, it's just getting someone to keep up the pulls to keep up the chains. We can get chain 6 duoing as gld and cnj. I'm sure even adding 1-2 more people would be even better xp.

I actually like all the crafting aspects of ffxiv.
I just kept getting that Aion/WoW feel with all the disciples of war classes. All it felt like was button mashing.

I was thinking about picking up fishing, but I want to at least get one job to twenty-five.
EDIT: Nice having a FFXI/FFXIV conversation without someone drawing a line in the sand. :)

I really like the crafting system. I already have a 50 in that....but only 33 in a battle class.
I prefer the mage jobs over the melee, it is a lot of button mashing.

I usually stick to anything ranged. Just conditioning since my HS BF who initiated my rediscovery of video games over a decade ago.
WHM/BLM/RNG mostly. I'm not a fan of melee either.

I have to be getting punched in the face or tasting some of that dirt flavored icecream to enjoy it... Sitting back in the bleachers never really worked for me...

Despite the minimal complaints so far, I do have to give XIV more credit in the time-invested department. Convenient for the responsibilities that need to be taken care of before play-time.
Also...ALSO!!!
Good God! He's one of those!!!
I would hope that I wouldn't have to include, "Just teasing," but for the sake of it not being misinterpreted...

I know for the other tanks and melee dps those are the links to our skill chain... basically if you do them in order each successive attacks base atk dmg rises... there was a comment in the tutorials that said pugs and mnks were different though...

I'm not sure anymore...

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
