[Discussion] Due to the stalker plugin. My former stalker has found my new character that was attached to my old character

1.6k Upvotes

I haven't logged on in over a week and I'm debating about just quitting the game to protect the people I know ingame.

I logged on one day and I got a /tell from them. Admitting who they are and her wanting to make up with me. She is a terrible person and has been stalking me for a long time trying to date me again and attacking everybody she think is my girlfriend or getting too close to me. Now they know my new character all because I logged into my old character.

Shes messaging me on different characters from different accounts and she won't stop or go away. I'm extremely stressed because I can't play the game in peace and its weighting on me.

I hate whoever created this plugin. I contacted square enix and I hope something happens...if nothing happens I will have to stop playing because Im not willing to start over as another character and who knows how long until I get found out again...

[Discussion] What are some fun facts about fight mechanics that you know?

219 Upvotes

For the level 63 trial, when the boss entombs one player inside one of three rocks then mixes them up, the correct rock will always be the last rock on the enmity list.

For the level 83 trial, the safe spot for the next 5 or something mechs will always be directly under the boss’s left hand that’s touching the arena (till the puddles start dropping).

[Fanart - Original Content] [Art][Comm]Moonlight Esuna – Dignified Scholar & Doctor

Meet Moonlight Esuna, a dignified rabbit lady scholar-doctor with a magical fox companion.

Esuna prides herself on being refined, graceful, and composed. She attends exactly zero parties each year and is far more likely to fall asleep in a library than be found at any social gathering.

This was a fun character to illustrate, and I really enjoyed capturing her calm, scholarly personality through her design, pose, and expression.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback! Thanks for taking a look. 🐇📚✨

[Video] We've been doing a duo-challenge in FFXIV for over a year now!

Post image
109 Upvotes

Me and my partner have been steadily making progress in these duo-challenge alts. This was certainly inspired by the solo-only challenges out there (they're really cool!) but its a somewhat different experience as we have a lot more possibilities than being fully solo.

We're two lalafellin twin sisters who, with nothing better to do, have to save the world as many times as necessary so they can finally, hopefully, take the good nap they deserve.

Our objective is to beat MSQ on our own without NPC rewards from regular quests, avoid items from common currency vendors when possible and absolutely 0 help from any other player. We've also made it a rule to have to complete the tribes, deliveries and to go through the relics for each expansion as well. We prefer going without healer and try to complete duties on Minimum Item Level and No Echo when possible.

The result so far has been really interesting. We've just reached Stormblood, and almost every single fight so far (with the exception of a certain whale trial in Heavensward, which we had to unsync.) has been really, really rewarding to figure out and play synced. All fights take long (specially as double tank), but it also means you get to engage with the mechanics properly (and sometimes you find ways to break them.)

We've gained newfound appreciation for ARR and HW duties, and some of the ways you can cheese or tackle mechanics even as only 2 people. We've also gotten better at the game after playing this challenge for so long and we've noticed it in our mains as well. These characters are by far one of our coolest experience in this game.

Our latest struggle was Zurvan, part of the last relic progress needed for Heavensward, and I jokingly bet that if Saya clutched the clear I'd post about it on Reddit. I'm here, so you can bet it was a great clutch indeed.

Zurvan Clear (Saya's POV)

Zurvan Clear (Sasaba's POV)

We started posting recordings of our duty attempts (except the testing in our mains) right at the end of ARR, but our document still has a lot of notes about the duties we did before and our strategies for it. We've also made a music video we cleared ARR, and even if not the best, it's another thing that's really nice to share with people when they learn about the challenge and makes me happy to watch from time to time.

Enjoy!

Any questions we're more than happy to answer

[Question] Is this game worth getting into if I like FF but don't like MMOs?

80 Upvotes

I've played 15, 16 and 7 remakes and loved all 4. I've never really played an MMO and am kind of against them, I like being able to do my own thing without caring about/needing others. Am I going to be able to play solo or will I have to team up with people? Planning to buy complete edition through the sale on the SE website

Edit: okay, okay, it's been like 5 minutes and I've gotten at least 12 yes notifications! I'll be downloading the free trial later today. Hoping this can pull me out of my gaming slump.

[Fanart - Original Content] [Comm] My co-tank in the Hades style [Art by me]

My co-tank (and one of my best friends) really liked the mockup I made for one of my characters in the Supergiants Hades style and really wanted me to do one for her. It had been a while since the original drawing, but it was really fun trying to retrace my steps in the process.

The original piece was done as an art style study because I really admire the artist and the work that went into developing it. I was reading articles, watching videos, and just analyzing the official art to understand the process to make it what it was. I don’t think I did a 1:1 likeness cuz it’s got a lil me in there but having the opportunity to practice and do it again was honestly just a real treat.

[Question] Cant make friends anymore

35 Upvotes

I've been playing FF for about 5 years this July, and the game has genuinely changed my life. It helped me immensely in finding myself and dealing with my social anxiety. Along the way, I've met some amazing people who have gone on to become lifelong friends.
Recently, though, I've been having a really hard time making friends that I actually feel close to. I feel like it used to be a lot easier to meet people and then organically grow close with them.
I'm on EU. What am I doing wrong? Is just approaching people not enough anymore? How did you guys meet your close friends in game?

[Discussion] Finished EW and Post Spoiler

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/s/P3tiB6430Z

Me from a previous post. Wow. What an expansion!! I am very happy to be almost caught up. And the cadence of dungeons and trials in the post msq was amazing!

I don’t even know where to begin. It was all just incredible and honestly looking at my prediction…. it wasn’t bad it was just the first 33% of the expansion XD HAHAHA!!

Just to gush in no particular order.

It was pretty much everything I wanted. Emet Selch, Hythlodaeus and Venat were incredible. I love my grumpy husband. The Elpis quest chain (and Ultima Thule) being my favorite portion of the MSQ.<3

When Venat asked me if my journey had been good, if it had been worthwhile, I’m not gonna lie I cried. God and her sundering Eithyrs was so awesome. “Henceforth, he shall walk.” Such a hard line. The delivery was so freaking good.

My god. Ultima Thule. The music after Graha sacrificed himself was so good. AND THE SEGMENT WHERE WE HAVE TO WALK ALONE WITH THE ENDWALKER DEBUFF WAS SO GOOD.

The flower scene when Emet and Hythlodaeus make the flowers for Metion ;u; waaaaaaaa<3

I didn’t like Hermes as much as Emet, but his and Meteion’s story was very sad </3

— Post —

It being so FFIV was so crazy and unexpected????? But as someone who loved IV it was an absolute treat!! Also when I met Zero I had never seen anything about this character, so I was like “ah lmao she will die to resolve conflict at pivotal moment” but uh??? She and Golbez are gonna start to slowly rebuild the 13th????? Which is crazy?? Good for them!! also her transformation from reaper to paladin was such an incredible nod to Cecil going from dark knight to Paladin in his respective game.

Rubicante is the goat.

Uh yeah that shit rocked.

————

Now I’m 2 quests away from losing my sprout and about to start DT… I’ve heard…. a lot of mixed things… Nonsense but also genuine fair criticism… Excited to see where I stand on it! :3

I want to have a shared hotbar for my DoH skills but I don't want to have to cycle past it when I'm on my DoW or DoL classes, is there a way to have it not be shared with a specific class? Or should I just set up each DoH bar on its own?

[Tech Support] crash on startup fix

0 Upvotes

Hey so ever since i purchased the game on steam, it had this weird glitch/bug where it would immediately crash after i tried launching it from steam. I tried multiple fixes, even contacted square enix support and nothing happened.

So when i was looking for a fix for ANOTHER bug(it was about discord overlay), i found this one post on a square enix forum that said all you had to do was change your computer's name, so i tried that just because and it turns out it actually worked lol.

So just spreading the word, if you cant launch your game through steam try changing your computer's name on windows settings, hope this helps someone as it helped me

[Question] Changing/Shuffling music OUTSIDE of your house?

0 Upvotes

Forgive me if I’m stupid here, but I’m sitting here… in the Mist… as always, just crafting in front of the marketboard. My boyfriend also plays but on a PC a few feet away from me (I’m on ps5). Where is he? Same place doing the same thing. Then, he has to leave the house to get some stuff so my actual house goes silent… and I hear it.
Ul’Dah music??? wtf? I legit thought I was hearing things. Later on… Limsa music?????? wtf how and why?? I turn up my music and it’s… regular Mist music (or housing location, if you will). I then turn up his music and sure as hell, his music is different???
I ask him when he gets home how does he have different music playing? We are not inside the house and it’s shuffling from like various City’s music. He tells me he has no idea and he never changed any settings. He then tells me that he never knew my music sounded the way it did? Mind you, we’ve been playing together for YEARS so I find that hard to believe but maybe he just never noticed. Regardless…

HOW do you play different music/shuffle the music? He had to have done something at some point and doesn’t remember. I was under the impression you couldn’t unless using your jute box in the house.

[Event - Expo/Meetup] EU FanFest Registration

0 Upvotes

Hey gang. First time going to FanFest this weekend, very very excited. I noticed that for the NA FanFest, there was a pre-registration day on the Friday, whereas nothing like that is listed on the EU Website.

I know I'm sort of asking people with the same amount of information as me, but as a FanFest newbie I wanted to pick people's brains: is it just registration on the Saturday like a normal con? Or is it a pre-reg situation?
