    that is amdapor gear

    Amdapor Gear is not the point of running Amdapor. Darklight is.

    (And to a lesser extent, Mythology gear but you're more likely to accumulate that stuff via Binding Coil)

    darklite gear is a waste of tomes, you should be spending all of those on accessories which do not drop in amdapor aside from necks

    So FYI, if you own the PS3 version you get the PS4 version for free when it's released.

    I think this means I'll pick up the PS3 version as well so I can play on both. Also you get access to the PS4 beta which is Feb 22nd. Pretty good news, I'd say.

    Oh shit. I knew that JP would get PS4 beta access on 02/2014, but I had no idea we'd get a free upgrade.

    This fully redeems the PS3 purchase. I was starting to have doubts as it seemed less and less likely I'd ever play it over the PC version.

    There...isn't anything else TO spend Philo tomes on. Darklight gear is what you want to be fully kitted out in for Binding Coil. Yes, it is a better idea to buy the jewelry first because it is the largest marginal upgrade. iLVL 60 Amdapor junk is just a stepping stone to proper iLVL 70 Coil ready gear.

    @Just_Bri_Thanks: PM me when you have the PS3 version in your hands, and I'll PayPal you some dollahs and you can just send me the code. My understanding is that I don't need the disc.

    It's so hard to keep up with this thread and play the game at the same time. :evil:

    On this note, I did just sign up.

    I can't do anything post wise on the forums though, is this because I wasn't approved yet?

    Well I am in the FC, so get to approving so I can intro myself in the... intro thread.

    Also Darklight gear is pretty classy. For healers moreso than casters but it is not half bad at all.

    So I just had this fellow "tank" a FATE boss in South Thanalan. Yes, in that gear.

    If it weren't for the fact that we were the only ones there for 3/4 of the boss fight, I'd have probably let him just die.

    I didn't say it'd be fun, but grinding Amdapor until your eyes bleed is what end game progression consists of until Bahamut's Coil.

    That and your relic quest. Welcome to raiding and related activities!

    There are indeed people already 100% Darklight'd.

    yeah legacy people that started out at 50. I even hit 50 rather early, for most people full darklite gear isn't happening for like a month, at least.

    Yeah, I pretty much got my darklight rings and earrings and called it a week. My weak ass FC of RL friends are casual as all hell, so I doubt I'll even be seeing the inside of Coil this year.

    An Amdapor Keep run can be knocked out in between 13 and 20 minutes if you're fast. A dedicated group could (have) do it in a week or less, Legacy status isn't even necessary.

    That is about 400 Tomestones per hour, give or take. But yes most people definitely won't be doing it that fast.

    Speaking of Coil, it has the same 90 minute timer as all dungeons right? So you can only be in there 90 minutes a day? I actually rather like that. No ridiculous "300 attempts/as long as it takes" nonsense that a lot of bleeding edge WoW guilds did.

    The only thing I'm worried about is these speed runs becoming the expectation incredibly quickly, and very uninviting to new people just learning the dungeons.

    If you have a PC copy available, I'd be much appreciated to be able to snag a copy. The closest to me is a few hours away. Ill PM you too.

    Assuming that last edit meant it was gone, but I figured I would try!

    Not today.

    I have been paid for two of the copies, and I am waiting on the third. If that person doesn't come through, I have someone standing by as an alternate.

    So, here's a thing I would like to see:

    A notation at the bottom of the item tooltips in my armory chest, that tells me whether that particular item is part of one of my gear sets or not.

    It gets VERY cluttered in there, very quickly, and it can be a lot to keep track of.

    Agree with this 100%. I've accidentally sold other class items several times.

    Hooray, Dragoon unlocked. That gives me three, with Warrior (34) and Paladin (30).

    Didn't realize from looking at xivdb that Jump was off the GCD. That explains a lot! Makes the class a lot more interesting.
