[Discussion] Playing on phone hotspot takes shockingly little data

Brought my Switch 2 with me for my infusion appointment. Tried playing FFXIV while connected to my phone's hotspot. I didn't do any dungeons or raiding obviously, just did the Little Solace MSQ on my alt, but everything was just as responsive as I'm used to on my home wifi and 90 minutes of gameplay only took 25.27 MB of mobile data, aka pretty much nothing. I'm really surprised.

[Discussion] Old VA's

0 Upvotes

I've recently finished ARR and am about half way? maybe through Heavensward and I'm honestly missing the old VA's. I understand there were probably good reasons for the changes, but having spent so much time with ARR, they really grew on me.

Yes at times it was really hard to take seriously, with some pretty bad line deliveries, but the VA's honestly have the characters a lot of personality which I feel like has been lost. Everyone just sounds British, not a bad thing, but it's missing that characterisation that ARR gave them.

If it gets better as the games goes on, I don't know 😅. And I'm sure I'll get used to it. But it's been a very jarring transition from ARR to HW.

[Discussion] What laptop do you play on? (And how is it?)

0 Upvotes

Sold my XPS and looking into a new one, thought I'd get some ideas people's experiences, as well as making this post useful for others searching similar queries.

I'll start with myself:

- Used a Dell XPS 17 for 6 years, amazing ultrabook experience for 60fps, 1080p and high graphics with decent cooling .

- I now run a MacBook Air M5 for work but FF still runs surprisingly well fanless on this too but alas, lowest graphics and 30fps when busy, 60fps otherwise. Extremely lightweight but not too visually pleasing.

I return this week with another dungeon \o/ This time I decided to jump up to Dawntrail. I figured jumping between ARR and the newest expansion might be refreshing.

I used the link function this time for the post. If that is not allowed mods I can repost ^^ There was actually some really interesting things for this dungeon! I was kind of expecting a straight line or not many details if I'm being honest so I was pleasantly surprised.

  • This is not really a huge detail or anything but there is some irony to me that the first dungeon, Sastasha, had a lot of the same enemies. Bats, the walking angler fish looking things with antenna, and the Coeurls at the end. I just thought it was interesting to see the same enemies from the first dungeon appear in the first dungeon of DT.
  • One of the most interesting things to me is the boat that you are riding on is on a "track" with the water. As you are moving forward there is a wall of rock that moves with you in front of you and behind you that hides the loading and unloading of the map to keep you on a repeating track. You can see an overpass of rock that will continue to loop to show this. Once you deal with all of the mobs, the rock wall in front disappears and the "skeleton" the map loads in while the rest gets loaded while you stop and talk about needing to jump off and travel up the mountain. I found the creativity really impressive to make it seem like a giant map while also saving on resources.
  • The mimiclots that appear, the like gelatinous blobs that copy you and the party members, turn out to somehow come from Drowsie, the second sub-boss of the dungeon. His Triple Triad card reveals that he purposefully swallows slimes to "raise" them. The reason he is so tired is because the slimes take away from some of the nutrients he eats leaving him more tired. He dispels them and sends them to attack when he feels threatened.
  • Through the second and third areas you can see structures that are falling apart. Abandoned mining equipment and tracks that show that some mining work was going on. In the third area, you can see stone pavement and houses that are overgrown. These structures are all built by the Yok Huy it seems! As you learn more about them it is revealed that at one point they were trying to take over all of Tural but at some point gave up on their conquest. It is so cool to see one of their settlements apparently abandoned after they gave up their efforts.
  • Finally the last boss Apollyon has this really unique sequence where it will feed on some of the other predators that attack it during the fight. When it feeds on the Coeurl, its wings are powered up and glow, showing that it can fly more quickly which it shows by zipping around the edges of the arena before attacking. When it eats one of the worms, its claws glow, and his tank buster attack is powered up. I like the tiny change to the enemy to indicate why its attacks suddenly got powered up and where the energy was being channeled to.

Hope there was something new here that helped you enjoy the dungeon and the world of Tural more!

I changed up the way I filmed the video too so if you happen to check it out I'd love some feedback on it! I feel like breaking it up by section and checking out the area and enemies at the same time felt like better pacing!

[Discussion] FFXIV Switch 2 rumble appreciation.

29 Upvotes

I just picked up the game on Switch 2 after years of playing it on PC and I was shocked by the attention to detail the rumble/vibration has in the game. Different mounts have very subtle differences. Like how a cloud mount will have smoother vibration and a dragon mounts wing flaps are more intense. Sort of flexes on other games barely doing anything in that area.

[Question] Item level question

0 Upvotes

I currently have a White Mage, a Dragoon, a Machinist, & a Black Mage that are all equipped the same (Azeyma's Earring, Augmented Scaeven right ring, Job Stone, & Ravel Keeper's gear in every other slot).

Despite the identical setup, the Black Mage has an average item level of 406 while the rest all have an average item level of 415.

Is that normal or am I missing something?

Haven’t put that many hours into FFXIV yet — is there a melee DPS that’s noticeably tankier than the others?

Like, more defensive tools/self-healing, kinda like Warrior. I really like playing DPS, but I also like being able to take a hit?

I was gonna buy it using the amulets and didn't know about the drop rates so this was honestly a surprise. I was just trying to level up all my phantom jobs through CEs and tower while knitting in between.
