Final Fantasy XIV: ARR, a Thread Reborn

[Datastorm]

Alright, last moment check before we all start server swapping. I'm heading to coeurl tomorrow, where my FC will be recreated and actually operational this time. If any of you all are not happy where you are or just wanna play with people who know better and work together great, come along. I'll help anyone who wants it, hell I'll run lowbie dungeons in full darklight if you guys need. Just gimme a heads up.

Oh heck just do it in your bikini:)

So transfers are pretty much impossible right now. Errors, seemingly non existent characters and random world destinations:(  Saw this coming a mile away though..

[Hathen]

Some people got them to go through by refreshing the page a lot, and when they got through they said it only took maybe 5 minutes for them to successfully transfer. So up to you if you want to be doing this:

[Annubis]

Doing that though is part of why it's not working for anyone...

[kyuusei]

So, once transfers start working, is anyone moving to Hyperion? ;)

[Esper_Crusader]

Its funny because I want to transfer my main to Diabolos but she won't load. It has Diabolos as the destination but shows only my lower level alt who is already on there. Sigh!

[Agent D.]

Yeah, congestion's maxed, not getting this done atm. Probably do it late tonight for ease of transfer. Course my FC probably won't be happy that I raided the bank before I left to start setting up the new stuff on coeurl. Once again SE fucking up what should be a happy day.

Hello,

 I apologize for the issues that you're all experiencing and the delay in announcing an update on the World Transfer Service.

 Currently the World Transfer Service is experiencing issues and generating errors when acquiring characters due to a large amount of transfer requests. Due to this, we are processing the transfer requests slower than anticipated and there may be cases where errors appear during the application process. The development team is working to resolve the core causes of the issue, but until the fixes are completed you may still continue to encounter errors. We anticipate the earliest these countermeasures will be applied to be around the early hours of tomorrow morning.

 Depending on the timing of the countermeasure implementation we may extend the free World transfer period once again. We will be sure to keep you updated on the status as we have more to share. We sincerely apologize for any inconveniences caused during this time.

The downside, of course, is that if you're planning on travelling to a high-population world you might get barred off if you wait. Good thing Coeurl's one of the smaller servers...

[Agent D.]

Got on coeurl, and my name isn't changed woohoo.

Downside....no fc till tomorrow. Fuckinv LAME.

[Parn]

Got onto coeurl with no issues.  Glad I avoided this morning's apparent (expected) clusterfuck.

Still on Hyperion. Killed Garuda, did my lvl 45 Relic quest. And screw the haters, After doing all the class and job quests, I think the Relic quest is fine as it is. And the 45 one is only a walk in the park if you power leveled to 50 (or were previously 50) and *then* did the quests.

Hyperion is still locked out to transfers. In other news, finally finished...

[Tenchi-no-Ryu]

community is viral. i feel for people who are not geared, 90% of the things in shout require relics/ full dl

What I think is really disgusting is people are now demanding relics and full DL for Wanderer's Palace... /facepalm.

I thought it was fine - the dragoon one, at least. And I did it right at 45, there's no way I could wait to get the drachen armor.

Damn, how many of those were 50 from 1.0?

I noticed a slight change.  My Immortal Flame's quest originally told me to do Ampador Keep.  Post-patch, it now tells me to do Aurum Vale instead.  I think they're being a bit smarter about progression of content.  This also helps a bit with the current catch-22 situation of people expecting you to come with at least your i55 grand company weapon despite the fact that before, you couldn't even get to the appropriate rank to even be eligible to purchase it.

I've actually avoided doing end-game content for two reasons: for starters, don't feel like dealing with assholes at the moment, and secondly, darklight tank armor looks fucking awful.  I'm disappointed that the appearance tab won't make it for 2.1.

Prices are a good bit different on coeurl versus what I'm used to on Typhon.  Goods also flow... differently than I'm used to.  Guess I should prepare to adjust.  I'm really used to my fishing items flying off the shelf.
