After a frenzy of activities immediately following Patch 1.21, LL on Palamecia is as dead as a door knob. WTF

Goto Uldah, that's where the cool people hang out. Just tell them you know me and you'll be fine.

Re: What is your Pet Peeve in FFXIV?

How the heck do I get into Mor Dhona?

I got a lvl 34 quest to go visit the place (Forever Taken) but every single way in has mobs ranging from lvl 45 to 75+ completely blocking the paths. And it isn't a "just wait and stealth around them or kill them one by one" kinda thing, the high lvl mobs are literally blocking the entrances in flocks. I've tried going in from Thanalan, Black Shroud and Coerthas, and no luck.

Am I missing something or do I need to wait until I'm much higher lvl so I can just nuke my way in? orz

I know exactly what you're talking about, but don't remember the work around. There is one though... Sorry...

From Humblehearth, make your way west to Camp Crimson Bark. The map I show you basically starts off from the path heading into this "West Forest" area of the Black Shroud. Unhappy face means that they'll be some high level monsters that may or may not aggro (They're red, though) but the path all the way to Mor Dhona entrance should be free of any aggro monsters and on a chocobo you shouldn't have to worry (I think they're Boars and they are leashed to this small area and actually will reset quickly)

Edit: OH ... and once in Mor Dhona, the spot you need to be in for the quest is RIGHT THERE. Just a few meters from the entrance. Only thing you gotta worry about is a lone level 53 toad, but he's leashed and shouldn't interfere with you.

I'll give it a try that way. I went through Crimson and to Murmur when I saw the bunch of high lvl mobs north from the camp then tried to go around but was flanked by all those high lvl mobs. But if it's free of aggro after the boars I should be able to make it. <_<;

The mobs are mostly high level but neutral color and unless you decide to go up to one and poke it with a stick, you should be just peachy :D

No one crafting lower level gear. I just started leveling Archer (Insane damage by the way... A lot stronger than monk.), and I can't find anything for level 10...

Just buy it from the NPC in the markets.

Yep, there are two next to the 'main starter npc' (aka. Momodi in Ul'dah, Balderon(SP?) in Limsa...and I have no idea who it is in Grid) that also sells starter gear up to your late teens. I mean, if it's anything like my server...you'll still be in shortage of gear up until the mid 30's and up...but you should be able to scrap a few pieces or just bum your way through like me :p

I was doing that. Was hoping to ride the level 1 gear all the way to level 15 if possible but... nope... The damage I was taking from lvl 10 mobs at lvl 8 was quite a lot... Upgraded to level 8 gear, damage was cut in half... XD

Re: What is your Pet Peeve in FFXIV?

The Adventurer's guild usually has decent gear for lower levels.

And thanks to Aeni's intel I was finally able to complete that pesky quest, but now I'm left to wonder what the heck is that wrecked ship thing in the middle of the area.

And last but not least I'm getting pretty tired of my "path companion" or whatever they are called. She is all "You'd do anything for me!" and I'm like "Uh... I just want to get another quest done to advance the story. <_<" and she has been pretty useless in combat. So, if I switch companions do I get to see past cutscenes like nothing happened with the new NPC replacing the older?



PS > Also, what's with all the lvl 70+ mobs added all over the place? Unless they are planning on raising the lvl cap before 2.0 I don't see what's their purpose.

Re: What is your Pet Peeve in FFXIV?

Speaking of my NPC the next quest featured another fight. She really sucks as a CNJ, so maybe I should fire her and get a melee companion instead. See if that works better. <_<;

Re: What is your Pet Peeve in FFXIV?

My path companion is a total slut, she's awesome. It's implied that she sleeps around to get information, though my character never gets any action.

As for a peeve, I hate trying to get people to help with the Dragoon quest. It might be a bit early for me to want to be a dragoon (level 30) but I want that first quest done!
