I wonder if they can throw a command in windower4 to disable/enable gamepad?
What I do when I wanted to idle in XI while playing something else is login fully to my character, open a new window and fully login to it again.
Crashes the first window and gives me the same result as dualboxing, for controller purposes.
(You can then freely close the disconnected window.)

Tantra Crown +2. Should I swap it in for use w/ perfect counter, does it need to remain equipped? Don't see any info on this anywhere. I'm a nub. :3

Basically no, but you might consider keeping the ToM weapons if they ever expand the system. Also, Loki's Kaftan may be useful in some situations if you don't have Athos's Tabard.

Heavily situational could be subtle blow build for the neck (although I'm sure you can cap with other items.) and an HP+ build for the head item.

Hmm I do have Athos body so Loki's Kaftan is no good then. It looks like a good idea to keep the mask for the hp but not so sure about the neck and subtle blow :D Thanks for quick answers~

None of it's hard to get, if you do suddenly find a use for it, you can just go pick one up.

I just got a new computer with Windows 8, but my install discs are old and only support Windows 7. Is there a place where I can download the game and all expansions (Windows 8 compatible) without having to purchase it over again? Thanks in advance!

Aside from POL, I didn't think you needed anything special for Win7 or Win8.
The proper POL version is downloadable from their site, but I'm fairly sure even old install discs will work from what I've read but I don't actually use Win8 so I can't confirm.

The actual FFXI game should be compatable from any disc. As stated above, You will need to get the Win8 version of POL from the FFXI official site. It's a free download.
Also, you will probably need to Run as Admin

I have a DRK gear question pertaining to stats vs. STP usefulness.
ItemSet 228128
That is my TP gear set atm, where I have 54STP /SAM which gives me 20TP per hit for a true 5hit. I can lose up to 8STP and still have a 4hit+Reso 5hit.
I am just wondering if some of the stat bonuses on the Cizin gear are worth the loss in STP. Be it Head/Body Feet/Body or whatever.

if you always get an error putting your card in, you've been flagged by ultimatepay for fraud(probably due to IP being too far from credit cards origin).. goes away after weeks, every time you retry it gets added to
you can always get an ultimategamecard at your nearest cvs and use it to add crysta, probably take less time than getting through their line with the inevitable flood of new ff14 players unable to cope with their ***systems

I cant seam to find any version of POL that states it is windows 8 compatible. In fact I only found one reference to windows 8 at all. Everything else says vista/7/xp. Is it the normal version or is there somewhere special I should be looking. I feel blind, because this be more obvious imo.

Granted, several people have a few issues with getting it to run properly, but there are several threads about what steps needed to be taken.

Hi.
Someone figured how to increase the chest rank in yorcia skirmish?
Just happened once to me.
Bg says something about heartwing, but personally i never saw that mob, even when i got my rank up.
Thanks.

Thanks. BGWIKI said: The quantity of rewards received is dependent on the tier of body segment used and the number of objectives completed. Note that occasionally a Dithering Heartwing will spawn at a random location on the map. This enemy will not move towards the cantonment, and if it is defeated prior to the announcement of the secondary loot pool (at the 10 minute warning), one extra piece of armor will be rewarded for completing the objectives, in addition to the quantity from the table below.
There is no other way as far as I know than to complete primary/secondary and the heartwing. Maybe someone in your group killed it without saying anything?

Chest rankups increase quality of the personal drops, it's seperate from the heartwing condition. Nobody seems to know how they work, last I checked.
