Final Fantasy XIV - Kiwi Free Company

[Gravemind]

I've just been slowly working on mine since it updated, especially since I realized I was missing out on XP gains by having the mammets do everything.

More than halfway to rank 12 at this point at least.

The safe bet's probably Dynamis right now since that Data Center's relatively unpopulated compared to the rest from what I heard. Although I think roleplayers have also been migrating there too.

Yeh, rp fags are migrating in force. Most if not the entirety of PF on Dynamis is just gay venue/fc ads. I have to DC hop to do any sort of raiding, but it's not a huge issue for me since maybe I have to wait 5 min at most to skip over during peak times. It also doesn't help that Dynamis is largely populated by alts.

I'd say Behemoth, but we have our share of tranny faggotry. But I'll take them over the Brazilians anyday.

I want more than anything to a send message these people who put out ERP fc ads to choke on a loaded shotgun. A shame they're somewhat of a protected class ingame.

A shame they're somewhat of a protected class ingame.

Judging by the fact that there's a bizarrely prolific market for people buying "ERP" written at maybe a third-grader's english competency level, I'd say they're a protected class because they're paypiggies. I certainly only forked out for what was strictly necessary from the cash shop, which is to say the eureka emote, the fat cat mount, and a BLM skip.

I say somewhat because it's against the rules to openly ERP or advertise it (AFAIK) yet they still do it quite a bit. Hell I saw an FC in my server (Excalibur) that encouraged open ERP but only at their FC house and outside of it in their "bath". So tired of it.
I am sure they only crack down if enough people bitch about a particular FC.

I've always liked Goblin. It's small and pretty quiet and calm now that all the server travel stuff is in place.
Seems like most of the degens flock to the high pop and the lower population servers are less shit as a result

Can confirm; I played on Goblin myself, didn't see much in the way of faggotry. I mean, it was still there, obviously, but not nearly as much as I've seen on others.

I really should try and get started on my island these days; are any of the rewards for completing it really worth it?

A few minions, orchestrions, glamour, a couple of fashion accessories, an actually cool motorcycle that ISN'T Fenrir, an alligator mount, some furniture, and yet another materia shop.

That's for you to decide if those things are worth it. I thought they were.

 

[Smug Chuckler]

Also Island Sanctuary is gonna be the closest to instance housing you are going to get, next patch you will be able to place outdoor furnishing.

Btw, you get more experience if you collect animal leavings and tend to your crops yourself instead of letting your mammets do it?

Correct. The mammets automatically handling farm and garden tasks does not generate any XP, but if you do it manually, you get XP for each leaving and crop you gather (50 EXP for each leaving, and 150 for each crop, IIRC).

I really wish I'd realized this myself half a week sooner, otherwise I'd probably already be at Rank 12 by now.

Ah for fuck's sake. I guess I should go back in there and tell my mammets to fuck off.

Yeah, that bike looks great; I was thinking about grinding for the Gabriel mount in Bozja, but... that bike looks really nice, and it doesn't look all that bad to grab, either.

Good to know; looking forward to creating my own house, once I get everything else sorted.

Doing it manually is tedious enough that personally I'm ok with just taking longer to reach rank 12. I'm intending to keep making crafts and hoarding cowries anyway to make money.

Finally, I have acquired the coveted Chevrolet movie theater.

Weirdly enough; I haven't dealt with too many troons and stuff recently. Granted, I've been playing at weird hours and generally avoiding/ignoring a lot of the popular ERP spots and stuff, but I've still seen less than I expected.

Actually, this makes me want to ask; what do the austistic little shits in the FFXIV fanbase hate the most? I've seen some people harvest some salt from fags before by shouting a few unpopular opinions either in-game or on the forums, but what's the biggest source of autistic rage for the FFXIV "fans"?

The unpopular opinions are pretty much kit and kaboodle. But if you're looking for that hyper-specific thing that will really make people go from zero to tardraging at mere utterance, well, good luck. That sort of thing varies from sperg to sperg in this game, and really even the tiniest of things can make some hyper-snowflake autists erupt if you happen to be unfortunate (or fortunate?) enough to trigger it.

Otherwise, average KF fare is sufficient to piss off most people in XIV, or so it would seem.

I've seen a TON of hatred on boards for Endwalker; in particular, mentioning Venat, Dynamis, hell ANY part of Endwalker's story in any sort of positive way is enough to make the entire forums collectively lose their shit from what I've seen. Relatedly, indicating that the Ascian's plans to kill off millions of people to get their "perfect world" back is even slightest bit messed up, or even admitting that Shadowbringers isn't your favorite expansion for whatever reason, will make the autists start screaming.

Also, I still see hatred for Lolorito and the Syndicate sometimes.

I've alluded to this before but Zenos seems to be a pretty reliable autism rage generator. "My soft baby got mistreated by the story reeee ;_; " from the pro community and "The solo duty was a rape metaphor/triggered my dysphoria reeeeeeeeeeeee" from the anti community.
