![]() This also means that I spent a good chunk of last night working on the Heavensward class quests for Scholar. Scholar is being worked up largely because it knocks two off my list when I get it to 80, given that summoner is a freebie associated with the Arcanist base class. I don’t love Dragoon nearly as much as I once did, so I am fine with letting it sit there in limbo and level extremely slowly. Dragoon is also fairly high up there, but is largely there to soak Faerie dailies if I don’t have any other 70 somethings available to level through them. Currently, I do all of the easy progress activities on the Ninja, and when I feel like I am down to just no-lifer grinding activities, I switch back over to the Scholar and do some Palace of the Dead. Right now I am largely focused on Ninja and Scholar. I am still on my mission to level all of the things to 80 before the launch of Endwalker. Once you get a single small, it becomes much easier to relocate to another property. ![]() My fear however is that this lottery is only going to apply to Ishgard, and as much as I do not love that town… I will absolutely go for a small property there. I would happily go visit a plot, throw down my earnest money, and then walk away and continue playing the game hoping that maybe just maybe the randomizer is kind to me. This would be so preferable to the current experience. When the housing district opens in Ishgard, there is supposedly a lottery system being introduced into the game that will allow someone to plunk money down on a property and let RNGesus choose who actually wins it. I would far rather be out in the world doing things, than milling around with a bunch of bots trying to win the fastest fingers first race with an indeterminate starting line. The entire process of trying to care about getting a home though was bringing me down. What I had done recently was hang out there while waiting on instance queues to pop and periodically click the sign in a vague attempt to get a property. During this time folks hang out in the housing, district clicking on the sign, and a number of individuals have figured out how to bot this process. There are a number of theories as to how long this timer is, but based on what little hard information I could find it seems to be between 30 minutes and 36 hours and anywhere in between. When a plot is reclaimed an invisible timer is started before it actually becomes available on the market, and with this, the waiting begins. I already have access to pretty much anything I COULD have access to, through the Free Company house.įor those unfamiliar with the current system, if you have not entered your home in 45 days the plot is reclaimed and all of your stuff is dumped on the Resident Caretaker along with 80% of the value of the plot. Getting a small house would effectively give me twice as much space, along with the ability to control the exterior but it would not actively change my gameplay experience. We have a lovely Free Company house, and this affords me the luxury of a very cheap room that I can decorate. Firstly housing plots are open way more often than I ever realized, and two that milling around and clicking a sign over and over was actively harming my enjoyment of the game. There were a few things that I have learned as a result. Over the last several days, I had been following a housing discord and going over to whatever plot happened to be open at the time. Something that I have come to a bit of a decision on, is that Housing Savage is not for me. ![]() During the outage, I learned that I could in fact that I could function pretty normally while tethered to my mobile phone, including but not limited to attending conference calls, remoting into work, and even playing some Final Fantasy XIV. Whatever was going on seemed to impact a pretty wide area because one of my co-workers some 20+ miles away was also impacted and had their internet magically come back at the same time as I did. I have no clue what happened but during that 19 hours, I received 4 notices that we were being impacted by a current outage and 4 notices that the issues had been resolved… three of these were a lie. ![]() At roughly 3 pm on August 16th, we lost internet and did not regain it until roughly 10 am yesterday some 19 hours later. Hey friends, apologies for the lack of a post yesterday but I had issues.
