post patch play.

Today was really my first day to play since the new patch. I am loving the new UI. Here is an article I found on Eorzeapedia regarding how to utilize the UI in different formats. Inventory sort and the ranged weapon stacks of 999 instead of 99 (how much difference one number makes!) changed how I grind Archer. No more refilling mid battle!! I feel free! The only lingering concern I have is regarding the skill points, I feel like the physical xp and class sp are flipped. Low level is super fast now, and if you do low battle leves the reward is typically a weathered weapon.

So what did I spend my time doing?
  • Picked up some Level 20 leves at Tranquil and Bloodshore. I died very little, much to my surprise. Good to know I can hang at Bloodshore now.
  • Hit 16 Archer, 11 Lancer and 4 Conjurer (it took all of 5 minutes, and now I have Cure which has definitely helped with the grind) 
  • Fished a little, I think the sp for fishing may be worse. Gave up pretty quickly, but not without a few Merthlor Gobies.
  • Messed with my retainer, collected a little gil. Hit 100k finally (I'm rich bitch!) 
Nothing too exciting to take pictures of. But I find it hilarious that the Nanny goats follow you everywhere, including into camp (and I finally figured out how to escape Limsa).

  1. You should try "post-patch" crafting, I never realized how much UI lag I was getting before. It's so much faster and if you use guild support it lasts an hour instead of 5 mins!
