The Fat Chocobos Linkshell Thread

May as well have something kind of official going on.

I'm not going to give out pearlsacks at the moment, will wait and see what kind of people members will invite and - probably most importantly - how long they will end up sticking around. I'm hoping to give them to the likes of Ouch/Murd/Miriel who I know stuck with FFXI for buttloads longer than I did, so will probably go for them when they get in. Others will possibly get them if they keep bringing awesome people to parties, I guess...

Don't you mean Chocopo's?

Gave Bleys 50k today so he could afford to buy some arrows, it looks like archers get the raw end of the deal when it comes to this game. Still, hoping he sticks with it as at the moment we're looking at a linkshell with some great potential for a good attacking side. Ashi is going to join as a mage, and I expect Danielle/her/me will be doing a lot of partying and if anyone is on during those times then I welcome them to come along, too. I understand that at our level, parties of 3-5 are the best, so yeah.

Also, if anyone is in real need of an item, post in this thread and maybe we can work something out together. Personally, I just want shards and crystals... leveling up so many crafts can really be expensive when it comes to them. Luckily my alchemist can now turn crystals into shards, so I can do some balancing that way.

Currently happy to supply people in our LS with anything I can make if they are able to supply me with shards/crystals. I don't need ice/water, but all others would be welcome if you're willing and I'll do anything I can to return the favour with gear. Can't wait to get to rank 20 with a few crafts so I can really start churning out the better stuff.

Will probably be making a buttload of copper accessories (chokers, earrings, rings) so if anyone wants a freebie, let me know soon!

I can start playing more since my Internet has been set up properly now, but I'm still not sure what direction I'm taking. In either case, no one is ever on when I am. Thanks for the update with the sigs!

[Loony BoB]

Is Aya no longer playing? Sucks if that's the case. If you're really not sure what direction to take it's probably down to not playing with many other people - I find that I get better direction when I play with people regularly as you get a feel for your 'role', I guess. At the moment I've only partied with Danielle but Ashi is going to be on during my hours once her game arrives with her, and I see Bleys/Kaiser pretty often too, so hopefully we can party up. As for yourself in Australia, I imagine it'll be difficult but there may be times on the weekend when we can get something sorted out. If you ever feel that you've found someone who we should add to the linkshell after you've partied with them a couple of times then I'm sure it can be sorted out.

I suggest getting 8 leves at some point for a place such as Drybone, going there and shouting out "I have 8 leves, who wants to party up? " and seeing how things go... let us know of your progress, too! I've spent so much time crafting that I've not really felt I have the time to really party up. Most of my 16 marauder ranks were done by helping Danielle level a bit or by farming items for my crafting. =x Heh.

Gave Kaiser a Bronze Dagger, 2x Copper Rings, 2x Copper Wristlets and a Copper Earring last night. Shards for gear, folks, I'm always up for it!

Guess who just picked up FFXIV.
THIS GUY

[Loony BoB]

'nano! Awesome, will be great to see more faces online. I'll try to get a linkshell to you asap, depends on what times you're online obviously.

[Citizen Bleys]

So where the deuce has everyone been lately? Haven't seen a soul online in weeks.

[Loony BoB]

Recently got four new games we've been going through at our flat so that's kept us away - but I've been keeping up with news and will be back to try out the new AI etc. when the patch is out. Danielle more than likely will as well.

[Drift]

I'm picking up the game tomorrow

[Drift]

I would be on if I could get the patches D: someone pm me cause i need help!

[Loony BoB]

What's the problem? Don't worry about PM's - we can sort things out in this forum, maybe other people can find the info when they're having similar troubles that way.

[Drift]

Well firstly the patches are of a torrent nature, which I'm not allowed to do where I'm currently living atm. and now I can't seem to access a server with an error of 30002

[Loony BoB]

Ah - that kind of trouble. I'm at work so can't confirm where it is, but if you hop over to any FFXIV-focused forums you should be able to find threads about the patch with links of where you can download it without using a torrent. Eorzeapedia and FFXIVCore are probably your safest bet for getting a link.

[Drift]

i managed to find patches for now (however if i decide to keep playing i might need help from friends as it seems SE doesnt like people uploading the patches for non-torrents).
Now im currently waiting for the server maintainence to finish to actually see if i can play it.
