im a level 50 white mage but im currently playing as a archer, im level 27 and working on getting that to a level 50 Bard. Also im thinking of starting a DoL class as its just a more relaxing way to play the game now and then :)

im still yet to finish the main quest storyline.

Cool, i think the Bard's gear looks very nice.

DoL is an amazing way to make money ingame apparently. I level my Weaver class from time to time but should also consider doing a DoL since I always end up spending money in order to lvl Weaver.

I'm thinking of getting ISS, PS+, and FFXIV: ARR in June after I get out from school. Would it be better to get FFXIV for PS3 and then upgrade to PS4 since the cheapest copy at least on amazon is on PS3?
I also need some help getting started:
http://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Realm-Reborn-Playstation/dp/B002BRZ79E
also what are the subscription options?


I don't know about amazon, but i do know the cheapest version is the PS3 version.

Some tips you might've already know. Your first 30 days is free. You have until December 30th to take advantage of the free PS4 upgrade, and you must play the PS3 version at least once for it to work.

Membership Tier Subscription Length Monthly Price Max Characters per Server Max Characters
Entry 30 days $12.99 * 1 8
Standard 30 days $14.99 * 8 40
90 days $13.99 *
180 days $12.99 *

Wow I love the pugilist class, I'm just leveling it to 15 ATM so I can gain the Bars job for the archer class, I will definitely come back to pugilist to max that out! Also I think I've found a couple of good Free Companies to join, just deciding which one :)

I know, i love Monk XD i started as a lancer but prefered to do Monk later on. Also the Pugilist Guild quests in Ul'dah are very funny, the guildmaster is a riot.

I thought you had joined our FC, i saw your character name on the frontpage of our wall. Havent been able to find anyone online to send the invite? you should post something on the wall so someone can arrange a time with you. I cant yet cause I'm still an initiate and only upper ranks can invite you.

The invite is still pending with your leaders. I've had a couple of other invitations from a couple of others aswell, all of them including yours seem perfect for me, because, while I try to play the game everyday in the evenings (due to work) sometimes I can't get on due to RL commitments, your FC and the others don't mind and understand this.

I should be on later hopefully.

Ive just aquired the BARD job for Archer and i cant help think you'd be better off just staying as an Archer, the BARDS abilties really arnt that Vital to changing a battle for you or your party, and why you might think, "but at least your getting something extra" you've actually lost a lot more with the CROSS-CLASS abilities.

For instance, Ive also leveled the White Mage to Level 50, so with the Archer i was able to use RAISE, CURE, PROTECT and STONEWALL as a CROSS-CLASS abilities but since becoming a bard im no longer able to use these. I cant say how many times Cure and Protect have helped me out as a Archer class, and on one occasion in the boss fight in Haukke manor i was able to raise our conjurer which massively helped out. The abilities with bard just arnt that important and you have to stay close to the players for the effects to stay active.

Depends on what level you are, if you are just leveling in instances then Archer is fine until you get to the point where you'd want the AoE and songs. Once you are geared at 50 though, don't ever be an archer, you'd be gimping yourself for sure.



Just look at these awesome pics of Leviathan. Just look at those waves looking majestic as ever.

Wow I've attempted Brayflox dungeon 3 times now and our party has failed each time! But everytime we seem to get a player who just doesn't play their role properly.
1st was a tank (gladiator) who at level 32 still hadn't gained the job (paladin) and his defense was poor that the healer struggled to keep up with his life loss.
2nd, was another Tank that just didn't use Provoke or flash to gain the enmity and our party suffered even though we told him over and over to use it.
3rd we had a Healer who was good at healing one person but the minute there were multiple heals they just couldn't do it.
I'll attempt again tonight.
The first time I did this dungeon with my white mage class we breezed through it straight away :)
