Asmongold Reacts to "FFXIV's 10 Most Prestigious Things to FLEX with" | By Zepla

[@gasmaskhero9300]

FF14 community is hilarious to me. I hadn't played in like a year and came back and decided to start over and I started as a viera yesterday and the first thing that happens is some other viera player saw me as soon as I came out of the tutorial and immediately traded me 2 pieces of clothing for the sole purpose of expanding my outfits. I don't even know the person. Thanks whoever you are on (world) Jenova lol.

[@martinmccarthy3675]

Hell yeah had something similar where I was just walking through vesper Bay and some vet traded me a mount and a full set for my chocobo. Never had that happen to me in any other game.

The fact that asmon is planning to do literally almost everything he can do and get everything in FF14 makes me pretty happy

[@dijonpsalm6938]

As a person who was a flexer in WOW, he's feeling pretty empty im sure. We don't have that "this guy" factor anymore. I feel for him even though my love for WOW died years ago.

[@TheCooderix]

I dunno, it's one thing to say that's your intent, but it's another to actually DO it. Truth be told FFXIV is going to take a backseat (we know this) when Lost Ark, NW, Ashes, Elden ring etc releases and so I assume his plan is to complete as much content as possible (probably try to finish shadowbringers) prior to endwalker releasing, but something tells me he'll be done at that point. I really hope not, but remember, his original plan was solely to finish the story.

[@JackgarPrime]

I believe him that he'll try to get all the ultimate weapons, but to try and get the solo Deep Dungeon titles? That's on a whole different level.

[@ArseneGray]

[@AH-if8ik]

yeah, idk, i never enjoyed late game wow, i litraly did every quest doh, no raids what so ever, so I'm not really the "wow" above all, type of person, and I quit after cataclysm since the quest zones weren't interesting anymore. however, I do not understand how to enjoy FF, like legit, I would love to love it, to have a mmo to play as I got more time now then before, but it feels so hard to be cool when there are just so many uncool caracthers, like there ofc are some awsome and very cool and badass looking mogs, but then some just either naked or plainly unserius, (unserius meaning someone who plays the game for other reasons then making a cool looking mog, like playing for story or just simply thinking that other stuff looks nice ;and cool. I'm very biased ofc, as we all are.) but it was defniftivly easier to feel cool in Wow, with the genrel estetic of armour people chose. (my opinion, that should be a given)

[@janedoe885]

Before doing Palace of the Dead Asmon needs to do Tam Tara Deepcroft (Hard) for full immersion value if he hasn't already. It's not the most challenging dungeon but you get SPECTACULAR horror lore that ties into PotD. Quest to open it up is available at the main entrance to Ul'dah IIRC, in the dungeon it's crucial to find and read all torn folio notes for best experience.

[@janedoe885]

@@3xceIIent Yeah I'm living the youtube crowd life lmao. Honestly I know he's doing trials, MSQ dungeons, and raids--I just dunno if he's also doing the little [!+] quests consistently to unlock all the dungeons? There are a lot of those floating around and he wants to beat an ultimate on a timeline so if he didn't unlock every single ARR dungeon/trial (ex. Hildabrand stuff) I wouldn't blame him. Idk if he did Amdapor Keep or City, or the Wanderer's Palace bits. From the videos I've watched I haven't seen those mentioned yet so currently I'm assuming not? I figure his reaction to Tam Tara Hard is likely to be fun to see though because it kind of goes "hey sometimes FFXIV is horror" haha. It seems like something editors would highlight so I've been figuring he likely hasn't hit it yet.

[@Lagruell]

I just did this recently. The feels, man.

[@jaeusa160]

I hope chat bugs him to do Tam Tara HM before progressing in PotD. He's definitely skipped a number of optional things, like he hadn't done Cutter's Cry until way later.

[@faultycommodity]

That scared the life out of me.... and I still want to do it again :D

[@sosayweall_jpg]

TTD HM and literally all of the Edda shit is my favorite stuff in the game, bar none. Nothing can beat my first experience doing that duty at level non-synced, the storytelling and gameplay so seamlessly woven together and amazingly executed. The horror so visceral. I unfortunately never finished POTD or the entirety of the Edda quests to finish out the story, encountering her in POTD was SO cool though. (spoilers) I know she is redeemed, more or less. she was a puppet as so many baddies are and truly a victim top to bottom. While I'm never wild about the puppet thing, preferring a character's actions to 100% be their own, and their redemption to be a result of their own growth rather than some other entity being exposed and vanquished.. she is also a doomed character. she is dead and her life isn't restored just her soul is sort of.. freed from that insanity. It still ends up being a great ending. I hope I can actually do that shit in game at some point! but yeah, this is the story I pitch to new players the most when I talk to them, as it's something you get a lot of in MSQ but you do need to seek out more of it. It's so freaking good it gives me chills just thinking about it. the cutscenes at the end of HM and when you turn in the quest after freeing Paiyo Reiyo.. burned into my mind.

[@basicfacekick]

I love that the FF14 version of Torghast is just this thing you can do if you want, or not. If you do it and do it extremely well and challenge yourself, you get on leaderboards and get enormous prestige. It isn't tied to the story or even generally playing the game. WoW these days would never do this.

[@zerasuprime]

One of the best thing you can do; found your own FC, get a FC house where you and other people can actually make personal rooms, and build the workshop. Then build + rank up the submersibles until you can send them on salvages runs (takes a few months to get them there, maybe 3-4) which can bring you things to vendor to NPCs. 4 subs can bring back items worth several hundred thousand gil up to over a million every 1.5 days. That's extra gil for little effort (after the initial work of building/ranking up) and you also have a house with as many Miqo'te maids as you want (whereas with a personal house, you get no workshop, no subs, no personal room and the possibility for only 4 tenants to help you decorate it)

[@ralpbeez8414]

How bad was doing Extreme Trials on Mentor Roulette, really? Doing Fiend Ex was still a pain unsynced even during early SB for a party that didn't know what they were doing.

[@Eppon6]

​@@ralpbeez8414 It's mostly ARR extremes, or Great Hunt Ex. HW and SB extremes are more rare in general because at those points more people understand that using duty finder to do extremes is generally somewhat rude (because often, frustrated mentors will vent and tell people extremes are for premades or unsynched) or simply not worth the queue time and then disappointment of a group falling apart. Apart from that, it depends. Most often people are very willing to learn, but there are runs where no amount of explaining will help a player who simply wants to ignore vital tactics, and you simply cannot begin to complete that duty. The latter runs often disband.

[@Eppon6]

@@ElijahLotusShield Contrary to what most people believe, Mentor roulette is not for 'helping players who need help'. It is 'sitting reserve for a full random (non-pvp) roulette that involves all roulette content and old Extremes'. You're not getting a hand-picked group with someone who struggles or is new to the run. You are a max-level space filler who gets shoved into the group that has been waiting the longest for your role to be filled up. I've seen more than my share of mentor roulette runs that involved no issues, no player new to the duty. It was just a regular roulette run that needed a player with my role to fill that slot before it could begin.

Exactly. In fact, the Wow system is exactly the same! You have a fast XP rate and a slow XP rate, and by not playing you accumulate more "time" in the fast XP rate. But whether you call the fast XP rate "rested" and the slow XP rate "normal" or the fast XP rate "normal" and the slow XP rate "fatigued" is fundamentally the same.

I got the Necromancer title on a tank. Very rng-heavy as always and the floor 180 boss requires some good planning when it comes to your self-healing, burst and your invuln, but absolutely doable if you don't want to go on MCH/RDM. The last set, 191-200, has no boss at all but is by far the most stressful one when it comes to time depending on your resource-management and overall luck up to that point, but these mobs feel like mini-bosses when solo. Most likely an amazing time to do this now if you also happen to work on the Bozja Relic, I recommend people to give it a try

[@StayNightGaming]

As part of my solo log I definitely want to work towards the necromancer on warrior. Especially after seeing how difficult it can be. I knew it was hard to do but the time investment, chance of losing it all in the blink of an eye is crazy. Makes me really keen to give it a go

@@StayNightGaming you wanna manage resources up to 200 and use as little as possible until 171, preferably 180 where you use strength for the dps gain and set up 5 vuln stacks using lust at around 30% of his health 187+ you probably will use Pomander of Raging after checking chests but also depends on how comfortable you are with the timer watch some runs of other people and you'll see, recommend looking at Angelus Demonus (if I spelled that correctly), you can learn a bit by just observing him on higher floors

i should let you know that there is a strict requirement for the housing system that requires the owner, or any tenant/co-owner to have to log in at least once in (45 days?) to reset the house eviction (and i dont mean log in for 1 minute and log off, you have to make sure the server recognizes your activity). the consequence of neglecting this is your eviction, the house will be demolished and all furniture (that isnt a unique rare quest furniture) will be stored temporarily by an npc in the middle of the housing district for you to recover. this issue may be harsh but its kind of necessary to counter people who buy all the plots only to sell them in the grey market to other players, however it should be said that if the house is set to be the guild hall then as long as any free company member logs in the house is perfectly safe.

Legends are a dime a dozen. I can't walk past a city without seeing at least one legend or ultimate weapon and I see them failing normal mode mechanics in my roulettes all the time. I don't think anyone is really wowed by paypal legends in 2021. Now a Necromancer? Or a Saint of the Firmament? Or even a High Roller? I /kneel every time. I was guided to my first floor 200 clear by a Necromancer. I just in there for relic memories, he was doing it for fun. And he cleared on multiple jobs and he played the game for hundreds of hours and he was STILL A SPROUT. Necromancers are the ultimate god gamers of FFXIV.

[@zirilan3398]

@@zirilan3398 Once read a guy saying that half of the Saint titles were probably given to bots/unlegit farmers. Seems a jealous claim at first... but it only takes thinking about the MB situation for a few seconds to see how it can be absolutely true. :/ I was low level when part 4 started, only got the Top 100 title by a lucky burst of interested not for the ranking, but for the sheep mount of all things.^^ Thus, I would've never been able to Top 10 those, but it still grieves me a bit to think that a few dozen people probably were cheated out of it.

For hunt train, A hunt have 4-6 hours respawn timer, and train is usually happen when all have spawns. Factoring in preparation time, this mean you can get 3-4 trains a day per server if you are willing to stay up. S hunt have longer respawn timer, with HW-ShB have 3 days CD and 48 hours windows. Spawning condition vary a lot. Some depends of weather. Some require people to walk on the spot at certain time. Some require certain activity to be done. for examples: eat food, take fall damage, get hit by certain attack, have certain minion, gathering/fishing certain item, complete certain FATE(s), die, or die in specific way. And those are not guarateed to work when window just open either. It takes a lot of patience.

I was in an old crafting guild, with the Guild Leader playing since ARR launch without break. From her I learned that the maximum GIL you can have in your inventory is 999.999.999 GIL. But it's not a problem, because each of your Retainers can also hold this amount, as can your Guild Vault. However, if your Retainer is maxed out and sells an item, that GIL from the item sell will be lost :D She maxed out the max GIL 3 times :D Her favourite title "Honest Gillionaire" only played a small part in it. Most of it was always being on top of the crafting game and selling the newest items right when the patch came live, or shortly after.

[@MartinEB72]

The 50M gil mount isn't that hard to do legitimate. At max level you can easily get 1 Mil a week, and if you push it 2 Mil. It requires you to have leveled your crafting jobs, but I did that just to be able to repair my gear wherever I wanted. Plus just leveled them mostly with Grand Company turn ins, that I just bought off the Marketplace.

[@SuperHexer123]

my friend is actually making a killing off the marketboard right now without having any crafters/gatheres leveled off of just materia.

You had to get top 12 in skyward scores during the ranking season of the Firmament. This title is one of the rarest because you cannot obtain it anymore at all. Getting top 12 was hard as I have this title. I had to grind for 16-20hrs a day just to out beat bots.

I can definitely vouch for that, I have a personal friend who was in the top 10 for midgarsomr each time the board reset. The amount of hell he went through was crazy and you could just hear how dead inside he was after some days trying to keep that ranking up and away from bots.

[@tyriaxepheles7996]

Hunt trains and S Ranks are super easy if you're in a hunt Link shell. They notify the LS when a hunt is on, you go to the location and like 200 people are killing the marks within like 20 seconds. The hard part is getting a shot in before the mark dies. A full train is 36 marks per expansion. The reason why it takes so long is location congestion and the aetherite won't let you go to the correct instance for like 10 minutes. If it's a bullet train (i.e. the train doesn't wait for everyone to assemble before attacking the mark) you may miss most of the marks waiting to get into the right instance. So, right now with server congestion, bullet trains are pretty useless and just a waste of teleportation fees.

[@awerges2205]

It's still a flex to have the reward mount from mount farming, provided the person farmed the mount when it was current. The achievement date stamps when it happened. Same deal with savage raids. Just because people can do the content unsynced in a later expansion doesn't change the fact you put in the effort when it was actually hard.
