What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Who needs a THF when /THF gets the job done and deals more dmg.

Seriously, it seems like THFs (and Dagger RDMs) got kinda screwed up with the changes SE did against 1 handed weapons in favor of 2 handed weapons. Why did they remove the TP floor if they were gonna enhance 2 handed weapons to perform better anyway?

Ok, macros are starting to piss me off. They never fire when I really really need them too and I sit there hammering away at my keyboard with no message and finally dying because of it.

Secondly and somewhat related - 'Unable to cast spells at this time' for no reason. I didn't just use an item, I didn't just cast anything and nothing is hitting me. Why the hell won't the damn game just cast bind when I told it to.

Hmm, I've always had issues with Macro delay on PC and how it takes like a freaking second for it to let you actually use Macros after you pressed ctrl or alt. (It would've been funny if the recast time on Bind wasn't up at the time though ).

We were so freaking close that time.

Oh, by the way, the party sucked.

Casting before recast gives an error, and I have /recast on my macros so I know if the error is recast timers or not.

We were so freaking close that time.

Macro errors have killed us twice.

I try.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

And so Murphie ended up soloing all the way to 37.


Edit > If it makes you feel better I soloed till 37 too (even though I decided on doing that from day one), best part was that sometimes someone would actually send me a tell to party with me as DRK/PLD or something like that and without my flag up.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I'm currently at 34. I really don't want to have to solo the last three levels, but it won't be the end of the world if I do.

I have found that I can not cast anything on a DRG if he's in the middle of a Jump animation, even though I can target him and seemingly fire my macro at him, if he's in the air, my cure will not go off. It's kind of frustrating, but not so terrible as long as the tank regains hate soon afterwards. Just kind of annoys me that I want to Cure III him now but I can't just yet.

Hmm thats odd. Never had that happen to me when I jump. Only time that has happened is when I use Super Jump. I know that I can jump and cast a spell on during my jump animation and it will fire off when I land. This is when I am soloing and casting a fast spell like Power Attack.

unless it is for like a LS event, /thf sucks D:
soooo many people could dish out a ton more dot
i would say i understand, if they were /thfing to TA their WSs behing a tank
but no one does that
they SA them then complain the tank sucks

orz

im still new to pc (compact for laptop @school)
ps2 is sooooo much easier i the controller
i'm much better at playing on ps2, pc using that mouse pad thing to move cameras quickly is something i am truly roflcopter at
im improving though ><
i know you can those adapters for a ps2 controller for pc, if im not better in a couple months im just gonna give up and do that
that being said
windower plugins are very sexy and i do enjoy them a lot-not to forget PC version (xbox 360 too im sure, although i haven't seen it) is beautiful

Eastern Shadow. The bow is freaking r/ex. I'm now 0/4, and I'm tired of waking up at 2am, and camping till 10 for a goddamn Revival Tree Root, wtf? D: Why oh why won't he drop the bow, it's not like I'm going to go sell it. ; ;

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

It's all just SE's way of putting in some RP realism. Your character gets too distracted by something shiny, or your target's gimped gear, or thinking about cookies, and can't muster the concentration to cast a spell or what-have-you.

Have you tried /wait 1?
