Figured we didn't have a regular chat thread for FFXIV so thought I'd remedy it.

Did you know that the Tiny Rat minion, the one I bought for 2400 gil and have regretted ever since, sells for around the 10,000 gil mark? Only problem is, only one vendor sells it, and even then, it only appears in their inventory after you perform a specific action.

Me and Dobbo went to check it out last night, bought us some Tiny Rats, immediately put them on the market. :)

Also spending a fair bit of time trawling the markets, looking for items that aren't plentiful but sell for big profits, then making HQ versions and cashing in. Five grand for a lvl10 THM staff? Sold four last night. Jacket for four grand? Sold two HQ and a normie.

Got two retainers, and I make sure they're always full of stock. :)

As unlocking it can be a ballache, look for some of the other minion prices. Also, check the prices of brass ingots - they can be bought from vendors for 10g but sell for more on the market. Profits start small, but will grow if you keep abusing it. :yes:

Okay, repairing stuff is bothering me. Do I have to get my stuff repaired by another player with the requisite skills, or are there NPC vendors that can repair it?

Also, as a pugilist, I'm obviously in the Pugilist's Guild. Can I join multiple guilds, or is it one per?

Go to a little hammer icon on the map (if I remember correctly) and they have a service to repair your shit.

They're dotted around the towns n stuff.

Once you get to lvl 10, a quest becomes available. Once you've done that (said quest will be in the pug's guild hq) you can then go to any other guild and join there's. Doing so will change your job to their job (or will allow you to, they give you one of their weapons and when you equip that, your job changes) so you can be whatever you want at any time you want.

What's more is that some of the skills you learn, you can take to other job classes, giving you moar diversity in your role. I'm a Black Mage bt I can heal. I can also cast BIO on bitches which helps on big bosses.

What he said, or in short:

1. Go to a marketplace, find hammer icon, pay to repair.
2. Learn a requisite trade (Armorer, Weaver, Leatherworker, etc) to the required level and repair your own shit.
3. Get to Pugilist level 10, do the Pugilist Guild level 10 quest, earn the right to join other guilds.
4. Change weapon = change job.
5. Some skills cross over, ie, Black Mage skill "Surecast" can also be used by White Mages, and the White Mage skill "Cure" can be used by Paladins.

Ax, made you a level 36 HQ Fire Brand - attack damage 40. It's in the Mogmail.

I just smashed the unholy shit out of Ultima Weapon.

Holy fuck, what a fight.

Get that bastard down to 5% health and he starts a 20 second countdown to launch the spell Ultima.

Both White Mages dead, both tanks dead, one of our DPS's dead, 3 of them going at it like the fucking clappers.

Five seconds to go, one just goes "FUCK IT, LIMIT BREAK".

Killed it with - and I'm shitting you not - less than a second to go.

I know this, because the countdown hit one, then a second later, went to black, and we were all "Oh man, they were so fucking close..." and then the cutscene starts, showing we'd beaten it, and I'm pretty certain that everyone was screaming in shock and surprise.

I know I did.

Jesus fuck, epic final battle.

Hell, the final final final battle (because the end boss is never the end boss) was a similar state - me dead, both tanks dead, 3 DPS's alive... healer rezzes me, then we rez the tanks, then we rez the DPS that fell protecting us, then we just go "LEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOOOY" and wade in, fucking spells and shit all over the goddamn place.

Christ.

Amazing. Just amazing.

Credits are still rolling, and my heart rate is just pounding away like Smokey's mom's headboard when the navy are in town.

Infinity/10, would play again.

We'll have to arrange summink for this weekend, get us some Skype and shit, do us some plundering. Hell, lets get your ass up to level 20 and rape us some Ifrit. :viking:

If Dobbo and Ax join us, that'll be a full Light Party.

If not, I'll happily tag along as a healer while you mop up your quests. :)

Should be good this Saturday. I think I'll be around from 4pm Eastern onward (if I don't leave the hockey game that day and go straight to dinner with the family; if that happens, I wouldn't be on 'til 5-5:30).

Anyone fancy doing a dungeon or two tonight?

I've got a WHM 50, PLD 32 and a THM 9, so the available dungeons depend on the lowest level character.

Also, lets get us some Skype on too, for shits and gigs.

I finish at 10pm aside from Sunday, I finish at 7.30.

If notice is given I can hop straight on for quarter past ten.
