Bought the PS3 collector's edition of this cos it was cheap. Doesn't seem too bad, bit like a spruced up version of FFXI so far. Killed some squirrels.

You aren't dead! I'm enjoying this so far, it's just nice and satisfying to play. My PS4 should arrive tomorrow so I'm going to transfer my license over.

Dragoon relic lance currently at the Novus stage. Mad excitement after all the Fan Fest news of the expansion and all that good stuff. Anyone still playing?
Currently working through the main scenario content added in the updates - up to the 2.4 content now. I was waiting for the drop rates for Atma to be increased - need to start that now it's happened. Excited for the expansion - Coethas/Ishgard is my favourite area so nice to see the expansion going in that area.

I had a bit of a break over the summer but I'm more or less up to date now (if you ever can be).
My lad has recently finished getting his Atma drops and they were certainly much faster than when I did mine earlier in the year. What jobs are you rocking?
Um, basically Dragoon and not much else. Need to start working on the other classes for those cross-class skills. I was going to level up as a tank but I'm more interested in the Dark Knight class in the expansion than the current one. Have you done much with the crafting/gathering classes?
"ERE's like Mr. Muscle, he loves the things he hates"
Dragoon's my main class too. I certainly appreciated the recent buff!
My miner, botanist and fisher are all at 50 but only my miner is capable of gathering the 2-3 star HQ nodes. My fisher is pretty decent, done a little of the big fishing but I'll need better gear to go any further and catching HQ silver sovereigns is tough right now. To be fair I only levelled botanist by handing in Grand Company items, so it's a vanilla 50. I make my Gil from selling items from unspoiled nodes.
You can pick up the HQ i55 miner gear pretty cheap nowadays, put some tasty materia on it and you'll be close to 2 star nodes. Grade 3 Thanalan topsoil sells well as do crafting clusters. Easy money. You can then work towards upgrading your pick axe and buy a lush sledgehammer and your golden.
Blacksmith, Armourer and Goldsmith at 50 - this was all from 1.0. Not done a huge amount of crafting in 1.0 tbh.
Looks pretty sweet ERE! I do like how they add new stuff like any MMO but structure it so that people can catch up pretty easily if/after they've taken a break.
Pumped to get to the end of the ARR storyline and then see where it goes with 3.0.
It's good on PS4, although I don't have it on PC for comparison. I don't know if the PS3/PS4 transfer scheme is still going - if it is you could get a cheap PS3 client and transfer the license over.
