7.21 Cosmic Exploration Anonymous 04/24/2025 (Thu) 16:06:31 Id: 4037bd No. 1242740
I've been playing it mindlessly to level up my fisher, and it's fun so far, I only wish my the game would register pick me as a pilot. How does your journey fare?
I am clicking on rocks and it is indeed straight bussin'.
>>1242774 Man, you're missing out. Fishing is where it's at.
>>1242740 It's more fun than I thought it'd be. But I'm still not a gather/crafthead so it's not MY content, but it is content, even for me, and that's cool.
>>1242806 it was yoshi-p's way of saying level crafter/gather now!
E
>>1242849 I had most of them at 90. Was planning on just using the tribes to slowly and lazily level like I did with Loporrits. Now I've got 4 left between 90 and 100. It's not leveling I fear, it's gearing.
>>1242873 It is more funny to imagine Yoshi-P giving LTG's kys speech, but it's about crafter/gather instead.
Is this the new bread?
>>1242901 Ooh, like that. Yes, that is pretty funny.
(1.25 MB 498x373 skinner yes.gif)

>>1242740 I honestly didn't think I'd do much of it yet here I am working on a third relic, It's definitely worth doing a crafter first for the bonus relic research before doing the gatherers as they take longer to level comparatively
Do crafts need crystals/shards/etc in there?
You are a worthless, bitch ass, WoL Your life, literally, is as valuable as a summer ant I'm just gonna make content, you're gonna keep coming back I'm gonna seal up all the nodes, you're gonna keep coming back Why? Cause you keep smelling the rocks You worthless, bitch ass, nigga You're gonna stay on my dick until you die You serve no purpose in life Your purpose in life is to be in my servers, crafting on your world daily Your purpose in life is to be in that game, mining rocks daily Your WoL is nothing You serve zero purpose You should level crafter/gathers NOW!! And give somebody else a content of that space and moondust, that's covered up so that we can breathe in this blue trapped mmo Cause what are you here for? To play my game? Level crafter/gather! I mean that with a hundred percent, with a thousand percent.
>>1243001 Nope, everything is free to craft as it gives you the materials
>>1242781 Fishing makes me want to kill myself I've been only able to complete a few of the A-class missions and that's only due to very good fortune most of my missions are just like this instead
>>1243072 Did you turn Collect on?
>>1243086 Duh but I don't even know what the collectible fish is because there is no fishing log in this place is it a small fish? a large fish? a mooch? I did this mission twice already and haven't managed to catch a single one
>>1242946 Same. I thought it'd be content enjoyed solely by gatherers/crafters, but I've seen loads of people in it and trying to get in it. The numbers have fallen a little bit compared to day 1, but it's still very busy. Honestly best case scenario, since I was expecting non-gatherers/crafters to just avoid it and wait for Occult Crescent.
>>1242946 >as they take longer to level comparatively I was wondering about that because while doing the FSH relic, I was barely keeping up with the pace I had doing the CUL relic, even with the 50% bonus. I wasn't sure if it was taking longer or if I was letting myself get distracted more than before.
it's dogshit content literally just fucking gathering leve quests and interact with 3 objects FATEs why are people here even defending this slop
Just been fucking around and trying to get the mecha, I really should learn what my skills do
>>1243239 Sorry it's not a raid, champ.
>>1243142 I was only planing to use it to level miner to max but ended up doing the crafting too >>1243196 I found for miner it was best to reroll the mission list untill the b rank reduction one appeared, which gave 9 of 1 2 and 3 research. With the 50% bonus from doing the first relic it was giving me about 67 odd of each of them per mission
>>1243239 I personally like it
>>1243239 Me and my fc mates are just fucking around and talking as we craft and gather stuff, it’s pretty fun if you have friends. Also love the red alert theme is great https://youtu.be/czjXXodCtUw?si=46M2hvVRr9ApWbQB
>>1243368 this is also doable with some music in the background while you spaceout
>>1243293 >reduction one Yea that one is so damn easy it’s crazy
>>1243224 Thanks
>>1243381 Yea it’s legit just old school grinding , takes me back to my maplestory days

>>1242740 I love how you didn't even put xivg in the title.
>>1243403 I recommend listening to Gypsy Woman while doing it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojncAZyiIIM
is this the right place to be going level 0-100 with crafters or will i somehow miss out on things i could be learning by leveling "normally" so far ive enjoyed all the gathering here
>>1243429 You will miss out on some crucial skills like Manipulation if you don't do job quests for crafters.
>>1243405 because xivg is here >>>/vg/924
>>1243444 no one wants to join the jeet xivg
>>1243405 you can't make a /xivg/ on /v/ anymore or it'll get booted also grats on what i assume are dupes
>>1243429 You definitely need to do your crafter job quests until at least 65 for Manipulation and all your traits that you can't gain from just leveling.
ahh, i remember when every instance was like 200+
motherfuckerrrrrrrr
>>1243498 Sorry anon but I’m at work, that’s still very impressive at the middle of the day
>>1242740 I'll probably resub in May. Work and family have been taking all my time lately. Non MSQ patches aren't that appealing to me, honestly
>>1243517 this is EU, but it's like 7PM for me here, so most people just returned from work (if they did at all) and are probably having dinner, so still good numbers.
>>1243473 why dupe? just buy them off the mb
>>1243524 Anon, let me sell you on this patch. Fishing on the moon.
>>1243538 i thought you got these yourself and they were extras so you were selling them t. someone who got an extra glam coffer and mount and sold both
>>1243551 I got tired of only getting materia, so I checked the mb and everything was cheap. I was expecting the mount to be like 10-20mil and it was less than 2mil.
>>1242781 Fishing is kino but the A-ranks are soul killing. It's just big fishing tier reliance on luck and easily repeatable so it's actually much easier, but something about it is much more infuriating.
One of the coolest mounts is from fishing, people should fish. (the shark)
>>1243514 GET BENT YOU STUPID FISH!!!! HAHAHAHAHA
>>1243072 Fishing is completely fucked and you can tell none of the Jap cunts even play Fisher. The timer is way too strict and the RNG is completely against you. I did a B class where I had to catch four different fish, and the timer ran out because it refused to give me the last fish I needed. I have done a few A missions and only completed one or two because the RNG is just fucked on them.
>>1243640 >I did a B class where I had to catch four different fish, and the timer ran out because it refused to give me the last fish I needed. That's just how Fisher is, doing big fish has always been like that.
>>1243543 eh... I'm just eager for the FFV kino
>>1243640 the alchemy quest where you have to catch 3 rare fish and then craft 3 things with them is fucked
>>1243640 What I genuinely hate most is how this shit is not only mega grindy, but also really heavy on RNG, it's the worst combo possible
>>1243640 ambitious/modest lure changed everything for me when i realized you can just delete shitter fish off the list with it
>>1243792 I couldn't hook a single hopper lungfish using ambitious lure. Maybe it's just really bad rng, or maybe the devs are assholes. I also noticed you can't identical cast on the rare fish you need 3 of for the alchemy A rank.
>only like three long hair/ponytail mods that are Highlander compatible >only one is hat compatible >it's not a ponytail It's Ala Mhigover.
>>1243820 I don't remember if there's another !! tug for that one, but if there is then you can catch the other one, surface slap, then ambitious lure.
>>1243963 How hard could it be to download blender and fit another ponytail mod to a Highlander head?
for some reason my score is pretty high on GSM. I don't know why. I guess because I did red alert on it a lot? (I can't remember it being that much, but I guess)
Wait what, I've been out of the loop. Are we not getting a new Bozjer equivalent and this is its replacement, or is this unrelated?
>>1244181 This is Ishgard Restoration 2, the new Eureka/Bozja is in a month.
>>1244181 As the other anon said, it's the gatherer/crafter content loop, so more like Ishgard Restoration (but better since you don't have shit clogging up your inventory). The new Eureka/Bozja is in a month and it's called Occult Crescent/Shades' Triangle.
(37.66 KB 269x237 firefox_ebODfx3Zqx.png)

>>1244185 Oh okay. Phew. I haven't been logged in for a while (not since first 7.X alliance raid) What's the content level minimum?
>>1244254 >What's the content level minimum? For cosmic exploration, a crafter or gatherer at level 10. For the new Bozja, level 100.
>>1244262 Nice. Alrighty, I'll resub in May then. Hopefully the Alter FC hasn't died in my absence.
the last orchestrion roll now i just need the glasses and i have all the rng collectibles from cosmic exploration
Is there a list of all rewards from Cosmic Exploration compiled somewhere? Mainly interested in glams, mounts, minions, fashion items, etc.
>>1244810 Oh I forgot the kit because just showing off ones I liked lol
>>1244960 Ah shit, I forgot. I overlooked that there was a kit as well. Strangely no TT cards yet. And no hairstyles, but I bet Occult Crescent will have a hairstyle.
guess everyone retreated to /vg/ after all
>>1245592 People who actually want to talk about video games stayed here. /vg/ didn't blow through threads that quickly because they were talking about video games, it was just a discord channel to them. I'll take slower gameplay discussion over that any day.
>>1245622 Yeah. It's a shame, though, since it seems some of the people actually talking about the game retreated there too. Probably thought Mark outlawed ALL xiv threads.
>>1245635 I just use both, this one for actual discussion and the vg one for shitposting
being selected as a pilot is such rng...
>>1245713 There's a hidden pity system.
>>1245765 They game hates to see fishers thrive.
>>1245775 Fishers thrive in hardship.
>>1245713 Absolutely is. >>1245765 I haven't felt like there is, but people claim there is, so idk.
>>1245952 SE has straight up said there is, it's either in the patch notes or the in game guide
>>1245966 ohh. my bad
I can't do the A rank crafter missions properly so I just do the bare minimum (craft the stuff with 0 collectability or 1% chance of HQ) since it still count as clear for most of them >>1245952 >When a mech op directive is issued, players may use their exotablets to submit a pilot application, which must first be purchased with lunar credits. Once the entry period has expired, five players will be selected at random from the applicants and assigned to a mech. Players who are not chosen will regain their pilot application. Furthermore, each time a player is not chosen, their chances of being chosen next time will improve.
>>1246078 All the A-rank missions are pretty nuts. It's gonna be a real achievement to grind them out (unless you cheat).
>>1246088 Tfw there is actually an achievement for getting gold rank on all missions
>>1244960 Oh nice, I didn't know about this. unfortunately, I think I still like the basic bitch default stuff the most for my own characters

I'm gonna be honest, MCH has become the only class I play in frontlines because the 100-0 combo is the only viable counter a solo player has against a premade full of transgenders. They're going to be running a DRK plus some combination of AST/DRG/SMN/WHM/BRD for buffs and AOE damage. I can't kill the DRK, but I can kill the rest very easily. If you're diving and you see wildfire go up you HAVE to shield and immediately begin running the opposite way or I have you dead in 2 GCDs. It's a guaranteed kill every 90 seconds or a very likely kill every ~30 or so depending on how I pop the wildfire. I want to play other classes but there's no reason to. If I'm on a different class I'm doing 4 times the work for half the result, plus if there's a group queuing I'm at the mercy of the RNG deciding how many of my team members are doodoo poopoo mouthbreathing retards who collapse and start crying the moment they get drk sucked and busted on instead of prioritizing the very obviously coordinated group of 4.
You can't keep a fisher down
>YOU HAVE 4 MINUTES TO CRAFT THIS 3 TIMES >each craft for this recipe takes like 2 minutes of macro to actually complete what the fuck did they even test this shit?
>>1247734 I wonder if you're expected to just lowball the quality and pray.
>>1247784 the time limits feel absolutely unnecessary with how hard the recipes are as it is
there goes my assumption that the loporrits might have made the mechs as big as the ancients
>>1247734 You need perfect rng a lot of the time and that just doesn't happen. It took me 10 tries to get one A rank done, because I'd craft 1 thing perfectly, maybe even 2, but the 3rd just had fuck you rng and all my rapid synthesis fail.
>>1242740 It's boring grinding but I can't stop doing it, especially when rotation solvers like Raphael make it a lot easier if you don't know what you're doing. I assume that it's going to be a lot harder and non-macroable when you're max level though. The large area progression FATEs really suck if you're not on a populated server though. I posted in one of the earlier xiv threads that I literally went back and forth for 40 minutes clicking, the Dynamis world I was on genuinely took that long to complete.
>>1247734 lol time to do it by hand nerd
>can't even reliably clear some B-ranks Craftergawds... I lost...
Is there a mod that color-codes the icons for positionals? Like all the rear ones being mostly red and flanks being mostly green? I got the idea when I noticed that was sort of what they did with viper except for one positional it has, so it seems like it was just a coincidence. I want to start playing melee to be a bit more flexible, but it seems I have a hard time remembering which is which when it comes to positionals while also trying to remember the rest of the rotation.

plenty of content in this game feels shackled to the ugly old MMO style gameplay. while I agree that the crafting minigame is a nice change of pace for the eons old tab targetting fire dodging rave main game, I feel like the WoL should be doing some tycoon games level macro management and micro management instead of singlehandedly causing mass unemployment around the worldS AND THE MOONS by providing half a planet's worth of materials for the current post-war crisis nation they're currently in. those rabbits scream Dwarf Fortress autism game for example.

Is there a way to tell where the nodes for a gathering mission will be other than just memorizing them? A plugin, maybe? A few times now I've missed a gold rating because of just a few seconds, and I could have saved that much by starting the mission while closer to the nodes.
>>1284385 I wish. I'm gonna start screenshotting the spawns for each one when I start grinding out all my gold ranks. I'll post them here if anyone still needs them when I get around to it.
